The next day.
The bright sunshine reflected off the Moon Palace complex, making the various metal armors gleam. The sight of the people participating in the work-for-relief program was particularly moving, as the emotional impact on their bodies and minds was reflected on their faces.
In particular, the two little figures riding on dragon and phoenix mechanical beasts hovering above their heads, constantly scolding those who disrupt the order, create a shocking contrast in their identities that is hard to accept.
Once upon a time, the people on the field were all powerful figures who could do whatever they wanted, enjoying immense prestige.
Once reduced to backbreaking labor, even tasks like gnawing on the moon require queuing and following orders from management; the slightest mistake is met with a whipping: "Crack!"
It hurts so much, I can't live like this anymore!
Moreover, the bizarre arrival on the moon, with its thin air, meant that if each person hadn't been given a bottle of red potion to drink so they could barely breathe, they would have suffocated within three minutes.
As for what kind of technological product the red medicine is, who has the time to even think about it!
The most urgent task is to line up for food rations, eat, and go to work. If you're slow, you'll get whipped, and even if you're focused, the whip will ruin your mind.
As for food, each person gets two steamed buns; take it or leave it.
If I don't eat, I'll still have to work; it'll kill me!
Fortunately, those who were able to go to the moon experienced a life-or-death transformation of hunger and thirst on Earth, tasted the torment that the shadow of death brought to their body and mind, learned their lesson, stopped resisting, and accepted their fate.
There's nothing wrong with being a laborer; at least we went to the moon, and I'm proud of that!
Zheng Xing and Zheng Wang had no idea what the people at their feet were thinking. They were in a fit of anger. After the Zheng family meeting last night, they decided that Zheng Xing would take office as the prison warden on his first day. He was powerful, but he didn't want to do it.
With a "whoosh," a huge virtual screen appeared above the Moon Palace, shocking everyone present. They all looked up and were dumbfounded.
How is that possible?
Many people genuinely feel that this is unreal?
Or perhaps they are unwilling to believe or accept reality?
Because China, which they had suppressed and marginalized for years, has risen and is now truly preparing for the test flight of its interstellar spacecraft, it has become incredibly exciting in the eyes of a once-powerful group of people!
An unrealistic problem, fueled by a narrow-minded approach, has irritated the central nervous system and cost some people their lives. Is the person who secretly orchestrated all of this really Chinese?
Otherwise, why are only Chinese people around the world spared from suffering?
The laws and regulations governing Chinese people remain sound.
All kinds of armed forces are present.
Even in China, there are very few beggars. Why is that?
What about human rights?
Are you no longer talking about humanitarianism?
How come they seem so arrogant and domineering back then, and now they're so miserable and in pain?
Many people in the crowd cried, but dared not make a sound, lest they be whipped again.
I had heard dark stories about prisons before, stories of unimaginable cruelty, and I was skeptical. But after experiencing it myself, I realized it was all true.
It is common sense to fight evil with evil.
The key point is that those who carried out the executions were criminals, and it had nothing to do with the guards.
At least on the surface, that's how it appears, making it impossible to see any problems.
The principle followed is the same: obey discipline.
Those who disobey will be beaten until they submit.
What else?
If one person causes trouble, it could trigger a riot by tens of thousands of people.
This is called "killing the chicken to scare the monkey." If there are too many chickens, then put them in the meat grinder to maintain the overall situation and take extraordinary measures.
In this process, in order to avoid being implicated and to redeem themselves through meritorious service, criminals would fight for the lives of hundreds of others. Anyone who dared to be outrageous would incur the wrath of the crowd and get a beating. So how could they dare to cause trouble?
After all, talking about past glories here will only bring a more brutal beating.
The problem stems from a lack of resources and inequality; psychological imbalance is the root of the problem.
Just as the prisoners were lost in thought, the test flight preparations on the virtual screen were progressing to their final stages.
"Reporting to the commander, the pre-flight preparations for the interstellar spacecraft have been completed. Requesting permission to conduct the test flight?" The person in charge solemnly requested, his tone dignified and sacred.
The superior replied: "Execute the order and begin sea trials!"
"Yes, sir! Rest assured, we guarantee the mission will be completed. Test voyage, commence!" the person in charge responded excitedly.
The entire process was broadcast live, and the test pilots at various positions on the interstellar spacecraft operated with tense yet calm demeanor: "Test flight begins!"
Each department repeated the process to confirm that all pre-trial preparations were completed correctly before commencing work.
Zheng Wang watched these scenes with utter disdain: "Is it really necessary? There are only a few icons and buttons. Just click them and it takes off. Why make it so complicated and tiring?"
"Little sister, you've ridden on Dad's time-traveling express, plus Dad's cheat code for you, allowing you to get a head start on scientific and technological knowledge and know how to operate a spaceship. Naturally, you look down on those who don't know the stuff but still stick to their posts and work hard."
"They manually pilot the interstellar spaceship, which is the same as you operating the platform icons and relying on the system to perform various tasks of piloting the interstellar spaceship." Zheng Xing began to lecture him in a factual manner.
He was lecturing his younger sister, but in his heart he was also reflecting on himself. He deserved to be the warden!
Judging from this live broadcast of the test flight of the interstellar spacecraft, it is clear that coordinated operations and cooperation among various departments to pilot the interstellar spacecraft are not simple or easy tasks.
After all, if any department makes a mistake, the interstellar spaceship will malfunction.
Does this mean that abandoning the click icon and relying on the system to operate the spaceship for test flights was a mistake, a roundabout way of doing things?
No, this is pragmatism!
After all, the system is not omnipotent and infallible.
Not to mention what if the system is attacked by hackers, destroyed by spiritual magic, or other unexpected situations?
The system has lost the ability to control the interstellar spaceship; are we just waiting to die?
Zheng Wang belatedly realized: "Sigh, it's so hard to be a person. My baby has been robbed of the happy times he should have had. I protest..."
"Hey sis, can't we talk this out?" Zheng Xing was exasperated. Having a sister who refused to admit her mistakes was exhausting!
Zheng Wang pouted: "Brother, you're just too honest, which is why I got punished along with you and suffered a lot of bad luck."
Think about it, why should we be the ones punished when Dad made such a big mistake? Shouldn't Dad be the one being punished?
"Uh, little sister, what you said makes a lot of sense. I suggest you go and complain to Grandma. Maybe then we'll be free, haha." Zheng Xing wasn't fooled. No wonder Dad called her a black-hearted woman. He was right.
Can white be called black?
If she keeps talking, will Dad become the sinner?
Zheng Wang wasn't stupid enough to be the first to stick his neck out, so he smirked and urged, "Brother, you're going to be the pillar of our Zheng family in the future. What's wrong? Are you chickening out already?"
"Ahem, little sister, don't talk nonsense. Even if it is, that's a matter for the future. I'm still young, and I can't bear what you're going to do. Please forgive me, little sister." Zheng Xing said this and used his mind to control the mechanical dragon beast under his feet to fly away.
If I don't leave now, my younger sister will drag me down with her.
With a "whoosh," the interstellar spaceship test flight on the virtual screen ignited.
However, the interstellar spacecraft test flight is different from the spacecraft launch. There is no fire coming out from below. Only the air waves generated by the spacecraft thrusters hit the ground and stirred up a series of flying sand and stones, which made the interstellar spacecraft take off.
The elite Chinese engineers coordinated and piloted the interstellar spaceship, which slowly ascended into the sky. It was very stable, and the people of the whole country looked up and cheered, celebrating this great moment.
This marks the beginning of a new era of science and technology for the Chinese people!
A great milestone, a test voyage takes flight, let the five-star red flag wave in all the heavens and the world!
At this moment, even criminals were filled with awe and looked up to the rise of China!
The bells of a new era were tolled in the darkness, resonating in the hearts of every witness, and their influence will endure!
