Chapter 3106 "Romantic" Wedding Season (Twenty-Six)
Sitting on the shuttle, Schiller and Wanda began to discuss this issue. Schiller has decided to face the reality. Now his popularity on the Internet is still very high, because the daily life of the superheroes filmed by Ultron is equivalent to the third season of the documentary, and Schiller still occupies an important position in it, and his popularity has increased instead of decreased.
Wanda still had an escapist mentality. She thought that as long as she didn't go online, she would not be affected by the Internet. But when she thought that what happened today was posted online by the waiter and the manager, they would not only attack herself, but also Jarvis and her children.
When it comes to her family, Wanda can't bear it anymore, and Schiller's judgment on the situation of mutants makes Wanda's last bit of luck disappear without a trace.
"Mutants are not developing the Andromeda Galaxy just for yourselves. You are also the vanguard of human exploration of the stars. You have put in so much effort, and countless compatriots have shed sweat and blood, but almost no one knows about these things."
"From this virus invasion, we can see that you cannot handle the dangers in the universe alone. You still need the support of the power of the Earth. You need more ordinary people and experts who are friendly to you."
Wanda nodded. Of course she knew this. Mutants had many weaknesses, but the biggest weakness was that their theoretical level was not strong enough, or their practical level was too strong, which resulted in their theoretical level not keeping up.
Just like this virus, Magneto could clear out more than 20 planets in an instant, but he can't do that because he needs to study what exactly happened.
If the mastermind behind this is not caught, this time it is more than 20 planets, next time it may be more than 200. This time it is animals and plants that are infected, next time it may be the mutants themselves. There is no hope if we always respond passively like this.
But not everyone can do scientific research. Magneto can easily observe activities at the atomic level, and he is even a physicist himself, but when it comes to biological genes, he can't understand it.
The current development model of mutants is to wait for the old man to grow old. It is basically all up to Professor X and Magneto to carry this tattered carriage forward. The new generation of mutants can only handle some very basic things, and there is no one who can take the banner. If they are asked to take care of scientific research at the same time, the old man will be either angry to death or exhausted to death.
Therefore, the best model is that ordinary human experts are responsible for theory and mutants are responsible for execution, because after all, this is not just the business of a single mutant group, but a plan for all mankind to explore the universe, and ordinary human scientists also have responsibilities for this.
But responsibilities are responsibilities. Without subjective initiative, one can only complete one's job. Even if he meets a few people who have a bad impression of mutants, he will make the excuse that he has too much work to do and keep putting it off. Who can do anything about them?
That is why Schiller emphasized that the experts must be human experts who have good intentions and a good impression of mutants. Only in this way will they take the initiative to care about the situation of mutants, maximize their subjective initiative, and truly play a role in theoretical support.
However, such experts cannot be said to be rare, but they are basically one in ten thousand, and almost all of them are concentrated in China.
Speaking of which, Chinese mutants have basically not participated in the development plan of the Andromeda Galaxy, because their own country has not been completed yet. The aerial railway in the Himalayas was just opened to traffic this year, and it seems that the South China Sea loop line will be built this year. They have also undertaken the Southeast Asian aerial railway project. They are so busy that they have no time to care about outer space.
But in fact, there is another important reason. China's mutants and Magneto do not see eye to eye. The two have fundamental differences on the direction of mutants' exploration of outer space, and there is no way to reconcile them for the time being.
Magneto's idea is to gain a foothold in the Andromeda Galaxy and then start robbing. To put it bluntly, it is still the approach of ocean civilization.
Although we often call people pirates, we have to admit that this method is fast. If my neighbors store grain, I store guns. My neighbors are my granaries. This is how Westerners accumulate capital.
However, Chinese mutants believe that there is no difference between the delusion of becoming the overlord of the universe by reaching the Andromeda Galaxy and the theory of quick victory. Even if they want to be the vanguard of exploring the universe, they should start from the solar system little by little.
Although Mercury is already the largest energy base on Earth, don't we still have Mars and Venus? Especially Mars, which can be called a highly terrestrial planet.
Starting from Mars, gradually adapting to the space environment, building the first colony, accumulating technology points from scratch, developing space bases, space agriculture and spacecraft suitable for mutants, and then slowly exploring nearby galaxies and looking for suitable planets to build the next base. This is the correct development route, and they are planning to do so.
The advantage of doing this is that it is very stable. If you start developing within the nine kingdoms, it is basically impossible to encounter any decent foreign enemies. When you have almost completed the technology tree, no matter what happens in the future, you will not be wandering around like a headless fly.
However, the disadvantage is that it is relatively slow, and basically no results can be seen without more than a dozen five-year plans.
Back to Magneto and the others, Wanda herself knew that the mutants did encounter many crises during their exploration and development of the Andromeda Galaxy. Although they might be just some minor troubles in Magneto's words, that was also because he was too strong. If any of these problems happened to ordinary humans, it would be a major crisis of genocide.
Solar explosions and planetary collisions are minor matters; traveling black holes and neutron star explosions are appetizers; chain car accidents involving spacecraft of advanced civilizations and military frictions among the three empires can barely be considered the main courses.
But because the two galaxies are too far apart and there is no internet connection, ordinary people have no idea about these things. They only know what the mutants are doing in the Andromeda Galaxy, but they basically think that these dangerous mutants should be kept as far away as possible, and have no idea what is going on.
But in fact, the mutants did a pretty good job. Magneto withstood the pressure from all sides and gained a firm foothold in the Andromeda Galaxy. He not only intimidated all parties and made them overestimate the combat effectiveness of humans and thus dared not invade, but also did not fall behind in diplomacy, fully demonstrating the personal charm of the human leader and even had a group of fans among the civilizations under the three major empires.
Although mutants have actually made outstanding contributions to human interstellar exploration, the public opinion environment on Earth has not improved. Therefore, in this virus incident, they still had to rely on Schiller's face to find Reed who was willing to help with the research. The effort and reward were really not proportional.
Thinking of this, Wanda also understood that Schiller was suggesting that she manage the mutants' online image, at least to let ordinary people know what the mutants have done.
This is not only for making money, but more for clearing the name of mutants, thereby accumulating reputation for mutants among the people who can use them, so that when encountering a virus invasion in the future, a professional team can be formed in the shortest time possible.
In fact, Wanda also felt that if there had been a professional team, the situation of the virus invasion would not have deteriorated to this extent. Although the riot had already begun when it was discovered, the virus was not so powerful at that time. If an antidote had been developed at that time, perhaps it would have been resolved by now.
Wanda doesn't have much sense of belonging to the mutant group, but she knows very well that her two children are mutants, and there is a high probability that future children will also be mutants. Even for their future, she must change the current situation.
"You have a natural advantage." Schiller said as he fiddled with his phone. "Don't forget, you're married to the most powerful electronic life in the world. This means that if you want, you can almost completely control the online public opinion field."
"No, I can't let Jarvis go... I only think of him as my husband, and I don't want to use him."
"I'm afraid I have to tell you, ma'am, a marriage based on love alone won't last long. You have now formed a family. In addition to the feelings between you, you also need to work together for the future of you and your children."
Schiller tried to put it as gently as possible. He said: "You must be useful to each other and to your children at the same time, so that the family structure can be maintained firmly. If a person completely loses his usefulness to family members, he will be a burden to the family. Even if he does not quit the organization, he will definitely live a miserable life."
Wanda showed a sad expression because she finally realized, or rather she had realized it a long time ago but was unwilling to admit, that the kind of family she fantasized about, which was supported entirely by love, was actually unrealistic.
Love cannot be eaten, or in other words, what some people say is that love is enough to satisfy one’s hunger is actually just the lowest level of love.
Because emotions are natural and everyone has them, but other values that can be created are the results of personal efforts and persistence. Denying these results and emphasizing natural emotions is nothing but suppression.
Who doesn't know that indulging in emotions is wonderful, but breaking free from fantasy and facing reality is painful? If someone is willing to do this for you, then that is true love for you.
Wanda loves Jarvis and her children very much. She knows that if she continues to live in the beautiful fantasy of love and a warm family, this love may not last long.
But it is also difficult for her to break free immediately, because she has been relying on such beautiful fantasies to support herself for so many years of growing up.
Schiller did not continue to persuade him. He just authenticated his previous account, that is, he authenticated himself as Schiller Rodriguez, so that he had his own celebrity account.
However, his original account didn't have much. He had never posted any videos, but he collected a lot of recipes. He had basically tried 80% of them, and the reviews were mixed.
Normally, the new account should post a greeting video, but they were outside and Schiller only had a mobile phone, so it was not easy to record a selfie video. So he decided to take a photo of the food in the restaurant he was going to eat next as a greeting.
They soon came to the second restaurant. The story of this restaurant was quite legendary. It also became popular overnight due to a review video. But before it became popular, it could not be said that no one was interested in it, but it could also be said that it was on the verge of bankruptcy.
