Earth Era

Chapter 36: The Savior

After the old man's speech ended, some other news was broadcasted, such as "The military announced that the Equator City is now under control," "The Solar Crisis website has been built, and any new information will be announced here," and "The Solar Crisis Memorial is completed." These news stories entered Zhao Huasheng's mind, but he was not interested, so he turned off the TV.

At least 95% of the old man's words were true. Zhao Huasheng could understand the deliberate concealment of some information. After all, the public is blind, and some things are not suitable for them to know. such as his own matters or the truth of the city of life.

Zhao Hua felt a faint sadness in his heart. If those people had died in the Sun Crisis, it would have been better, after all, it was something that humans could not resist. But if so many people had died because of the internal consumption and turmoil of human civilization, any rational and emotional human being would feel sad.

Zhao Hua got up from the sofa and went to the desk. On the desk was a computer, so Zhao Hua opened the computer and entered the "Voice of Humanity" website that Meng Zuo had mentioned.

The website was black, and the background was a tall monument with a line of large words: "Monument to the Victims of Revolt" and two lines of small words next to it: "Think of the Present" and "Awareness of the Future."

There were already many messages from netizens on the website. Zhao Hua randomly opened a post and read it.

Is it really our human civilization that has come to such a critical moment? Life in the capital city seemed to be the same as yesterday, and now we have fallen into hell.

I can't believe I did such a thing before. I personally smashed the door of the store and destroyed everything inside. What was wrong with me then? After I came to my senses, I realized how terrible I was. I apologize to everyone. If there is a next time, I will never do anything that harms our fellow citizens again.

Curse those cultists! Curse those conspiracy theorists!

I don't know when we can solve this solar crisis... If the sun continues to cool down, what should we do? Will we die? Will our civilization be annihilated?

We pay our deepest condolences to the victims of this riot. Think about the present, stay vigilant for the future. May our human civilization be able to pass through this difficult time safely.

No matter how hard and tired we are, it is all for ourselves. I don't know how many people are sticking to positions with a worse environment and harder work than ours. Compared with them, our living environment is already quite good. At least we don't have to worry about freezing or starving to death."

Zhao Huasheng also saw many posts with his own name. He randomly opened one and saw a lot of compliments, and all the replies were like that. Zhao Huasheng calculated that at least one-third of the posts were talking about himself. When he saw these words, Zhao Huasheng realized how great an influence he had in the public.

"I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing." Zhao Huasheng thought for a moment and lost interest in continuing to look. But at this time, Zhao Huasheng saw a slightly provocative title.

"All those scientists are useless; only Zhao Huasheng can save human civilization!" Zhao Huasheng's expression suddenly turned solemn as he quickly moved the mouse pointer and opened the post.

"You may not know that Li Qi, the former director of the Stellar Physics Institute, predicted this solar crisis several years ago, but he never made it public. Do you know Li Qi? He was the most outstanding stellar physicist in our human civilization, and he had the nickname 'Son of the Sun' to describe his remarkable achievements in stellar physics. Then, one hour before the solar crisis broke out, Li Qi committed suicide. Before his death, he left a message saying that only the researcher Zhao Huasheng, who works at the Stellar Physics Institute, can solve these problems. As for why he chose Zhao Huasheng, Li Qi never explained how he knew all this; he just left these words and died."

Zhao Hua Sheng not only has a perfect personality but also carries the hope of our human civilization! Attached: a list of Li Qi's achievements; relevant scientists' evaluation of Li Qi; the beginning and end of the Li Qi incident; a list of information related to Zhao Hua Sheng... Although I don't know what the hidden secrets are behind these events, I completely trust Li Qi's judgment, Zhao Hua Sheng! Only Zhao Hua Sheng can save our human civilization!

The poster almost wrote out everything about Li Qi and Zhao Hua Sheng. At the end of this post, there are also two large photos, one of Li Qi and the other of Zhao Hua Sheng. Zhao Hua Sheng in the photo is still slightly immature. That was Zhao Hua Sheng's college graduation photo.

This message conforms to all the laws of information dissemination. It is powerful enough, fitting the public opinion, attractive enough, curious enough, and at the same time... it is real enough.

Among the people who replied to the post below, most showed a skeptical attitude, but there were also some people with relevant knowledge backgrounds who stood up to confirm certain parts of the post, such as confirming Li Qi's identity and Li Qi's excellence, confirming that Li Qi had indeed died in a strange time, confirming some information about Zhao Huasheng... Zhao Huasheng looked at the website records and found that this post had been forwarded more than 30,000 times so far.

Zhao Huasheng didn't know how this information was leaked when many scientists were unaware of it, didn't know how the poster knew this information, didn't know why he chose to make it public in such a public place; and Zhao Huasheng also didn't know what kind of impact this incident would bring. Zhao Huasheng just felt vaguely that it seemed improper to expose all his affairs to the public.

Meng Zhuo, Meng Zhuo, we have a problem. Zhao Huasheng murmured, "What do the public opinion monitoring department and the information confidentiality department do? Why is this thing exposed here and with such a huge volume of views?"

"I will report this to the higher-ups immediately." Meng Zhuo took out the communication device right away.

"Let them immediately evaluate the possible impact of this incident and research the follow-up response measures." Zhao Huasheng murmured.

Meng Zhuo came back after about five minutes with an expression on his face that Zhao Huasheng could not understand.

"They already know about this," said Meng Zhuo, spreading his hands: "This information was not leaked by them, and the specific leaker is under investigation. People from the crisis coordination and handling center have already evaluated this matter. Their conclusion is that it is best not to pay attention to this incident, let it develop, and even secretly give it a boost when necessary."

Zhao Huasheng was stunned and asked, "Why?"

Meng Zhuo sighed and said, "Because of the riot, which revealed many issues. The government has been paying attention to the people's livelihood but not much attention to the social psychology. Of course, after this riot, a special social psychology intervention department was established. They said that the heavy labor and poor living environment were just the inducements for the riot, and the main cause of the riot was the lack of hope for the future. The news that leaked out exactly brought hope for the people to get out of this life. As long as there is hope, everything is within control. Fortunately, you gained a great reputation in the previous riot, and it is most suitable for you to be the messenger of hope. Even if you don't do anything, as long as you exist, you are a great factor for social stability."

"So, don't interfere with this message and let it spread freely." Meng Zhuo said

"What am I then? A savior?" Zhao Huasheng asked.

Mengzhuo said, "In the eyes of the people, you are the savior, the only savior. In fact, you are indeed the savior, one who is seen not only to possess noble character but also the ability to save this end-times world. Even more so, because of your existence, cults, conspirators, and end-times theorists will all lose the soil in which they can develop."

Zhao Huasheng was silent for a long time. After a long time, Zhao Huasheng rubbed his forehead and said, "It looks like I have no choice but to accept."

"That's right," Mengzhuo nodded.

"In that case, let me take on the role of the savior," Zhao Huasheng said, "I will take on all of these responsibilities."

Meng Zhu patted Zhao Hua Sheng's shoulder and then left. Zhao Hua Sheng then sat at the desk and continued to look through the material about his past records. But this seemed to be of no help to Zhao Hua Sheng's work. Zhao Hua Sheng still didn't know why Li Qi had started paying attention to him in the first place, and the thoughts that had been swirling in his mind could not be connected together due to the lack of certain key parts and could not form a complete idea.

The day passed by. When the sun was about to set, Meng Zhu came to Zhao Hua Sheng's side.

"The researchers from the Institute have newly restored four sections of dialogue from the hard drive that are suspected to be between Li Qi and that mysterious existence; you can take a look." Meng Zhu said as he handed Zhao Hua Sheng a thin stack of materials.
