Chapter 46: The 3-Year Plan – History Will Remember Us
Get ready for the next apocalyptic update!
Upon hearing Fang Huaiyuan's words, everyone subconsciously held their breath, realizing the truth they might have discovered long ago but had never faced.
Yes... the doomsday broadcast made it very clear, and this is only version 1.00.
If there's a version 1.00, then there must be versions 2.00, 3.00, and so on...
Until all life on this planet is completely wiped out in each "version update"!
Thinking of this, the confidence that everyone had built up in resisting the glacial apocalypse suddenly began to waver.
They mobilized the entire nation to reach this point of self-preservation in this first version of the apocalypse, which is only the first step on a long journey.
Even more arduous tasks await them at Dongda University, and await all of humanity!
They no longer have a second Comrade Li Xiaming to tell them about the next version of the apocalypse.
Without the prophecies of those who can rewind time, how will they fight against the apocalypse? What will become of humanity after the next apocalyptic update?
"Comrades."
Seemingly noticing the somber atmosphere at the meeting, Fang Huaiyuan spoke again.
He didn't raise his voice, but it was like a warm and solid light, drawing everyone's attention to him, to the backbone of the nation.
"The unknown is indeed the deepest fear."
We have indeed lost Comrade Li Xiaming's guidance.
Fang Huaiyuan paused, his expression becoming increasingly composed:
"But precisely because of this, now is the beginning of our preparation for the next battle with the most rigorous, systematic, and scientific approach!"
"Facts have eloquently proven that our Yanhuang nation, united as one, can withstand the coming of the apocalypse."
In this glacial apocalypse, we protected the lives of hundreds of millions of our compatriots and maintained the operation of the country, which is the best proof that we have won the test.
"Therefore, we will surely find a way out of the challenges ahead through confrontation and struggle!"
Fang Huaiyuan's tone was not impassioned, but every word struck a chord with everyone, reuniting them.
Yes, we've weathered the first apocalyptic version's impact, and we still have three years to prepare.
This is far more preparation time than the short month before the apocalypse, so what is there to be afraid of?
The eyes of the experts from Southeast University and the heads of various departments present regained their confidence and brilliance.
Then, an elderly man with gray hair and a thin face raised his hand, indicating that he wanted to speak.
He is respectfully known as Elder Chen and is a leading figure in the fields of agriculture and food security at Southeast University.
Following Fang Huaiyuan's morale-boosting speech, he said:
"Comrades, Chairman Fang is right. I am a farmer, and my life has been about fighting against the heavens and struggling against the earth."
Therefore, I firmly believe that as long as the hearts of our university and humanity remain united, our direction is correct, and our path is scientific, there is no mountain we cannot climb, no river we cannot cross.
"Let me start by offering some suggestions."
Regardless of the type of apocalyptic scenario, our top priority should be food logistics.
This is the bottom line and the cornerstone of life for our Dongda University and even for all of humanity!
Having food in hand brings peace of mind; this is an absolute truth in any circumstance.
"Therefore, I propose that one of our core goals for the next three years is to build an 'absolute food security line'."
"To establish such a supply line that can be maintained in any apocalypse, the first thing to do is to relocate our traditional agricultural planting areas."
Given that in most doomsday scenarios, the surface is the first to be affected.
Therefore, we must transform traditional above-ground agriculture into underground agriculture.
"In the next three years, we will build a large-scale, intelligent, and ecologically sustainable underground agricultural system."
"Then, there will be a revolution in the crops themselves."
Professor Chen's tone carried a hint of the calmness and exploratory spirit unique to scientific researchers.
"The impact of the apocalypse on agriculture can be summarized as follows: low and high temperatures, drought and flood, salinity and alkalinity, and even radiation pollution."
Our motherland today has gathered the world's top plant geneticists, gene editors, and synthetic biology experts, which is equivalent to gathering the wisdom of countries around the world.
Three years is enough time for us to make breakthrough progress in genetic breeding under extreme conditions.
"Secondly, there is the technology for artificially synthesizing proteins and carbohydrates."
This isn't my area of expertise, but I think it can help us move away from relying solely on the weather and become an important part of ensuring our country's food supply in the future.
With Professor Chen taking the lead in speaking, it was as if the first shot had been fired, prompting countless academicians and scholars to actively offer their advice and suggestions.
Some have suggested focusing on developing battery technology and making every effort to overcome the challenges of controlled nuclear fusion technology, which is considered an inexhaustible source of energy.
Some have suggested that in the field of security, all members of the Dongda University community should be equipped with the ability and awareness to cope with disasters.
All members of the University of Tokyo should be deeply involved in various disaster prevention drills to cope with various emergencies after the end of the world.
Others have proposed a "Civilization Spark Plan" to ensure that the precious knowledge, technology, culture, and history of human civilization are not interrupted by disasters.
To ensure that even in the most precarious circumstances of human civilization, society has enough skilled artisans, doctors, and teachers to prevent the regression of human civilization.
Sparks of ideas clashed fiercely in the meeting room.
From the construction of deep-sea and deep-earth shelters to the feasibility of controlled nuclear fusion... one plan after another was proposed, debated, revised, and improved repeatedly.
This conference was the longest since the establishment of the Doomsday Survival Committee, lasting five days and resulting in the development of no fewer than twenty contingency plans to deal with various unforeseen circumstances in the future.
The global scientists and top scholars who had previously visited the University of Tokyo also came in handy at this conference.
The challenges that Tokyo University needs to overcome in the next three years, such as controlled nuclear fusion technology, solid-state battery technology, and genetically modified agriculture technology, all require the full support of scholars from around the world.
As all the agenda items drew to a close, Fang Huaiyuan began to summarize and conclude the conference.
"Comrades, we only have three years to make plans at our leisure."
"These three years may determine whether our nation and civilization can survive in this apocalyptic situation and whether we can preserve the spark of human revival!"
"From this moment forward, I declare that all established plans shall commence immediately."
All relevant ministries, research institutions, and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps should immediately select their best personnel and establish a special task force!
History will remember the choices we made and the sacrifices we made today.
"Meeting adjourned, and then—"
"Take immediate action!"
