Chapter 61: The Ownership of Shen Yu

Shen Yu had indeed discussed this issue with Interstellar Shen Yu.

Especially regarding weaponry.

If martial arts civilization represented future developmental potential, then interstellar civilization represented present strength.

Technological weapons could rapidly enhance the strength of the home planet's civilization.

And interstellar civilization indeed possessed a batch of obsolete stockpiles.

Two hundred years ago, when interstellar civilization officially entered the era of interstellar migration, a civil war had broken out.

The conflict of the civil war centered precisely around artificial intelligence.

The radical faction believed that artificial intelligence could vastly elevate the development speed of human civilization and accelerate the research and development of various technologies, while the conservative faction believed that artificial intelligence would destroy human creativity itself and carried the risk of rebellion.

The entire war lasted for twenty-one years.

In the end, it concluded with the victory of the radical faction, though they also absorbed some viewpoints from the conservative faction. After that, no further wars occurred for two hundred years, right up until the emergence of the Ethereal Civilization.

Although these were merely armaments from two hundred years ago, for the current home planet civilization, they still far surpassed the present level.

Their greatest advantage was their low cost.

At this moment, the entire conference room was exceptionally quiet, everyone carrying expectations and an intense sense of excitement.

They had already realized that they were witnessing a truly historical turning point in the developmental history of human civilization!

Shen Yu did not waste time and very decisively projected the list.

This meeting was not open to the public; those seated here were the influential representatives qualified to participate in the upcoming civilization-wide industrial and technological transformation.

Once the representatives clearly saw the contents of the list, a wave of uncontrollable commotion finally erupted in the venue.

"The first item is room-temperature ambient-pressure superconducting materials?"

"Controlled nuclear fusion, as well as the miniaturization of nuclear energy batteries!"

"General-purpose quantum computers?"

"Brain-computer interfaces, solid-state batteries, and artificial photosynthesis systems—what is this last one?"

"That is a technology used to directly synthesize starch and even fuel! Good god! This can completely solve starvation!"

"General-purpose robotic artificial intelligence cores?"

"A global wireless energy transmission network, this is too powerful!"

"..."

What Interstellar Shen Yu brought out were actually obsolete technologies from over three hundred years ago in the interstellar civilization. Only technology at this level could match the current level of human civilization.

Yet, it still felt as though the entrance to a future world was being unfolded before everyone present. Any single one of these items, had it appeared in the past, would have caused a global sensation and brought about a civilization-wide transformation.

And now, they had the opportunity to possess all of them at once!

Even though they had been mentally prepared, people were still incomparably ecstatic.

Each of these technologies meant that human civilization would board a rocket and charge directly into the future!

"Ladies and gentlemen," Orinard suddenly stood up at this moment. He first gave a slight bow to Shen Yu and the other person on the stage, then turned to look at all the other representatives, and said with a smile, "Based on the decision made by the Global Supreme Joint Council three hours ago, I hereby announce that fifty-one percent of the ownership rights to all technologies, equipment, and resources coming from our ally will belong personally to Consultant Shen Yu and will be completely locked in without any further changes. Twenty percent of the ownership rights will belong to Mr. Hanyu, and the remaining twenty-nine percent will belong to the Global Meteor Crisis Management Department."

These words directly caused all the representatives present to look at each other in dismay.

Some representatives opened their mouths wide, wanting to say something, but immediately realizing the situation, they quickly clamped them shut.

Shen Yu was not surprised by this either.

He had already learned of this situation from Ji Mingshu.

Clearly, the true purpose of this decision was to bind Shen Yu himself.

Since people from another world could come, it meant Shen Yu could also take people away from this world. Once he relocated his family and friends, his sole connection to this world would be nothing more than the two words "hometown."

That was simply too negligible.

The life and death of human civilization, the future of everyone present, were all tied to Shen Yu alone.

Therefore, enhancing Shen Yu's interests, status, and power in this world became a crucial decision.

Fifty-five—fifty-one percent could precisely represent "ownership."

Similarly, the twenty percent given to Interstellar Shen Yu was evidently because those elites had realized that the interstellar civilization did not place a high enough value on them.

Otherwise, even with the restrictions of the Association's "mutual assistance rules," there would still be numerous ways to provide tenfold or hundredfold support and assistance at present.

This was also a method to increase the interstellar civilization's regard for their world.

As for the final portion, it was clearly intended to enhance the power and status of the newly born institution, the "Global Meteor Crisis Management Department," restricting the distribution of interests among all global factions within its framework so as to concentrate more force to combat the disaster.

Clearly, this was a decision containing determination and sincerity.

However, they still overlooked one point.

And that was the tenet of the Multiverse Doomsday Civilization Mutual Assistance Association.

"According to the tenets and regulations of the Multiverse Doomsday Civilization Mutual Assistance Association, I cannot actively or passively utilize the advantages of our civilization to expand our influence within your civilization, and I must respect and uphold the absolute dominant right of your civilization's members," Interstellar Shen Yu said at this moment. "Therefore, I freely donate my twenty percent share of rights and interests to Member Shen Yu."

At once, Orinard's expression froze.

Looking at Interstellar Shen Yu, who wore a calm expression as if he were simply handing over a small gift, and then looking at Shen Yu, who also wore a calm expression.

He finally realized that they still possessed a severe cognitive deficiency regarding the Association and the Gray Mist Walkers.

Although they previously knew the Association had related regulations, they initially thought that as long as Shen Yu agreed, Interstellar Shen Yu could accept it.

Absolute dominant right?

However, regardless of their reactions, the meeting continued.

Shen Yu showed no outward reaction to Interstellar Shen Yu's donation, because this was the principle of the Association.

Every Shen Yu should personally direct the power and responsibility of their own civilization.

Just as he would not use the status of his original self to deeply plot for power in other worlds.

Therefore, he simply and lightly skipped over the topic at this moment, as if everything was taken for granted.

He directly brought up the next topic: "The stockpile of weapons from the interstellar civilization contains many categories, ranging from individual equipment to intra-planetary aircraft carriers, with varying prices. I hope you will make prudent choices based on the current crisis, selecting useful equipment, especially for West State—the spread of the zombie bacteria must be controlled."

A batch of living zombie bacteria samples had now also been sent over on an expedited basis, and they would be sent to the interstellar civilization along with the unknown plants from the East Country for research.

However, before results materialized, the situation had to be controlled.

The East Country was already increasing troop deployments with all its might.

Both types of enemies posed a threat that, once allowed to spread unchecked, would directly endanger the entire civilization.
