"I apologize, but I will resign after this London magical incident is resolved."
But not now, not at this moment.
We still have a lot of work to do, and the country is not fit to fall into further chaos caused by a change of government.
I promise I will leave 10 Downing Street once this matter is resolved.
The pressure was too much; I simply couldn't take it anymore.
After the arrival of magic, Earth began to take a completely different turn from its original trajectory.
It wasn't just magic, but also the influence of Zheng Li.
Zheng Li's brain-computer interface technology and brain-computer interface VR have saved at least fifteen years of time for the development of the VR field on Earth.
The entire VR industry chain is already worth over a trillion yuan, not to mention the changes it will bring and the scale of the industry after true virtual reality is realized.
The total value of the virtual reality industry can be seen as the combined value of smartphones and computers.
The most important thing about the economy is not the current situation, but the expectations.
VR and the anticipated impact of the metaverse have delayed the economic stagnation on Earth.
And some breakthroughs in the biological field brought about by magic, including life-extending potions, better genetically modified seeds, and the faster popularization of new energy vehicles.
Another factor was the effective treatment for COVID-19, which led to the eradication of the virus in 2022.
All of these factors prevented the global economy from falling into significant stagflation and a visible crisis between 2020 and 2025.
Instead, it created a rare period of economic prosperity.
Economics and politics are two sides of the same coin in human activity, so Boris Johnson was not forced to step down as he had been expected due to the resignation of more than 50 cabinet members in two days.
Of course, he still couldn't escape the fate of having to step down.
The disclosure of the matter inevitably means taking the blame, and all the public pressure is now focused on the English government.
The Europa League behind it can't possibly step forward to take the blame and say that we were also involved in this.
Furthermore, technological advancements can only delay stagflation and financial crises, but cannot solve the root causes.
Unless we immediately go to Mars and begin interstellar migration.
Even just colonizing Mars could fundamentally reverse the economic situation on Earth.
Of course, this brings another problem: only China and America are qualified and capable of going to Mars.
At most, the Europa League can be added.
While these countries have gone to Mars, other countries will still face a severe economic situation.
Zheng Li's lithium metal cathode material has led to a much faster-than-expected increase in the penetration rate of new energy vehicles.
This has led to an accelerated pace of global efforts to advance new energy strategies, primarily focused on carbon neutrality.
The increasing prevalence of artificial intelligence has transformed the entire business environment of the planet.
The cost of photovoltaic power generation itself has become low enough to be used in normal power system applications, and the cost and stability of energy storage and transmission have been greatly improved.
Meanwhile, Japan is vigorously promoting hydrogen energy technology.
The political forces and economic landscape of various countries have combined their efforts on the issue of new energy, making it an irreversible trend.
Although global warming cannot be stopped and extreme weather events will continue to occur, the new energy landscape has been solidified, and fossil fuels will still play a role, albeit one that will gradually diminish.
Since the advent of the industrial age, the waste gases produced by the use of fossil fuels have affected the Earth for hundreds of years.
Climate warming itself will cause changes in one of the most important heat storage and temperature regulation systems in meteorology: the ocean, which in turn will affect temperature.
This is how extreme weather events are formed, and changes in sea temperature can also affect the stability of the marine ecosystem.
The concept of new energy proposed by human society aims to directly convert and utilize solar energy, or to convert fossil fuels into clean energy.
The former includes solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, and tidal energy, while the latter includes hydrogen energy, bioenergy, and so on.
The development of new energy sources has led to the application of battery technology and battery materials, which has changed the composition of commodities.
Countries that once possessed fossil fuels also possessed these natural resources.
However, with the development trend of new energy sources, it is inevitable that the development trajectory of these countries will be altered. This has even changed the geopolitical landscape.
The development of solar energy is both a godsend opportunity and the result of years of hard work for China, which has the largest photovoltaic production capacity.
The development of hydrogen energy presents another opportunity for Japan, which possesses hydrogen fuel technology.
The development of new energy batteries presents another opportunity for countries like Australia, Chile, and Bolivia, which possess materials such as nickel and lithium.
However, due to the short-term adjustment period between traditional fossil energy and new energy sources, an energy crisis and a food crisis caused by high fertilizer costs occurred, leading to the restart of nuclear power generation in various countries of the world.
Currently, leading countries are turning their attention to nuclear fusion, hoping to be the first to achieve it.
The countries that first achieved nuclear fusion can be said to have gained the greatest advantage in the battle for new energy.
In this choice, nuclear power generation is the prerogative of a few countries because it involves not only technological capabilities but also the political restrictions on nuclear weapons.
Many countries have the capability to apply nuclear power technology.
Germany and Japan abandoned nuclear power for various reasons. America, which had suspended nuclear power development, has recently restarted research on nuclear fusion power generation.
China and France have been expanding nuclear power.
Nuclear power is actually impossible, whether from the perspective of capital intensity or from technological and political constraints.
Photovoltaic power generation is the most likely new energy power generation technology for developing countries under the current carbon tax system.
