Five Years
In this way, while there was a great internal debate in the new human society, negotiations between the two sides were also proceeding in an orderly manner.
The second phase of negotiations is mainly about cooperation at the military and industrial levels. This aspect involves military mutual assistance, exercises, and cooperation in the development of new spacecraft. It goes without saying how important it is.
With the conclusion of the negotiations, control of the Kyushu battle star was quickly transferred to human hands. This has aroused great favor among many people. There is a battle star, and it is a fully developed battle star, just like this!
This kind of mentality is like pie in the sky, suddenly becoming a nouveau riche. Having more money makes you feel comfortable and makes you giggle when you think about it.
Of course, everyone knows in their hearts that everything has a price, and battle stars are not obtained in vain. If you gain something, you have to pay.
Because of the acquisition of this battle star, there has been a wave of recruitment within the new human civilization. Many young people are eager to become soldiers. This time they are not just soldiers of the new human civilization, but alliance soldiers!
As for the third phase of negotiations, it mainly involves exchanges in science and technology, economy and culture, including the opening of a comprehensive trading market on the planet Kyushu. The two parties have negotiated a total of more than 100 major projects.
The three stages of negotiation took five years.
In the past five years, the great social debate within the new human civilization has basically ended. Extensive public debate has also produced a relatively clear result: the alliance between the two parties is beneficial to the new humanity and should also be beneficial to the hemispheric civilization. It is a win-win cooperation.
This result is enough.
Moreover, the conclusion was reached by themselves through long discussions. Naturally, they believed it deeply in their hearts and it was not easy for them to generate any rumors. This is much more effective than the government directly promulgating "our alliance" and has higher public support.
On the other hand, most of the public's attention has been attracted by a new economic system: a brand new trading market, referred to as the "Alliance Market", will be established above the Kyushu planetary fortress.
There is a big difference between the Kyushu Battle Star and the Shanhai Battle Star that I just got. The infrastructure of Planet Kyushu was basically built by the people of the Hemisphere, and the Hemisphere civilization has almost zero environmental requirements, and no various ecological facilities have been built on it.
Therefore, the ecological environment of the Kyushu is poor and will not be home to a large number of human citizens. It will be the main place for cooperation between the two sides of the alliance.
New Human Civilization and Hemispheric Civilization jointly released a new currency: "Galaxy Progressive Alliance Currency", referred to as Alliance Coin.
The amount of alliance coins to be released is jointly decided by the central banks of both parties. It does not mean that you can issue as much as you want. That will only cause a lot of inflation. Instead, it is controlled through banks according to a certain degree of rules.
The economic system of the new human base camp of Shan Hai will not change. This alliance currency cannot be used. It can only be used when trading with hemispheric civilizations.
"Union Coin" is equivalent to a bridge between two different economic systems. The newly opened trading market is a huge vacuum zone, generating a large amount of demand, which seems very promising.
In order to promote the use of this currency, one hundred and thirty major projects in cooperation between the new human civilization and the hemispheric civilization are all settled using this currency. If measured numerically, the annual gross production value of the new human civilization is 379.63 billion alliance coins, then the settlement amount of these 130 major projects is as high as 26.53 billion, which is almost 6.7% of the gross production value.
26.53 billion was invested, and all of a sudden, the alliance market prospered.
Various talk shows on TV channels and columns in newspapers are all introducing this new market.
"...the Jiuzhou Interstellar Trading Market adopts a market-based pricing mechanism with comprehensive competition. The trade prices are determined by the market and are no longer a planned economy."
"To give a simple example: the price of steel will be determined by supply relationships. During this period, a futures exchange will be established for forward trading of commodities. In the past, we humans have been able to accurately calculate the future. The amount of steel used in a few months and productivity will not be too high or too low, but now that there are two civilizations in the alliance, there is no way to accurately calculate it and can only set prices through the market."
"In addition, in the trading market, all patents will generate intellectual property protection and resolutely crack down on piracy! As long as you have technology and knowledge, you can make money from aliens and generate profits."
Therefore, the new human government encourages citizens to start businesses in the market, especially the currently unemployed people, to compete with hemispheric civilizations.
Establishing a new intermediate market is beneficial to mankind itself. This kind of market competition can more flexibly bring into play the subjective initiative of the private economy and strengthen communication with hemispheric civilizations.
One hundred and thirty major projects are real, and they are cooperation based on the shared economy, but there are still many details that need to be filled in.
The current plan is very detailed, but it is impossible to plan every aspect of the project. New humans and hemispheric civilization will definitely still have a series of contradictions and frictions.
Therefore, putting talents into this intermediate market to a certain extent and allowing them to give full play to their imagination and fill in these details can act as a lubricant for civilization.
Sometimes, giving people greater freedom can actually do better things.
The second benefit is that it can fully create employment. Now the population of the new human civilization is slowly growing, and it has almost reached the level of 800 million. The increase in population has led to increasing internal employment pressure.
Many laboratories, factories, and infrastructure engineering teams are fully staffed, so recruiting more people would be a hindrance and counterproductive.
Now a new market has emerged, which can greatly alleviate employment pressure.
To give a simple example, the entertainment service industry can absorb a large number of jobs. Hemispheric civilizations like human entertainment models very much, and humans also want to try each other's entertainment products. So, is it possible for various translation jobs and electronic program conversion jobs? Does it all require long-term planning by government departments?
Of course it's impossible.
In this case, it is a better choice to let personal capital do it. As long as there is interest, people will pursue it, and the government only needs to be responsible for reviewing it.
For example, in various non-sensitive areas of industrial cooperation, private consumer goods, colleges and universities, and even high-end laboratories, they can also hire high-end talents from the hemisphere civilization, as long as they pay the other party a satisfactory salary.
To hire talents from alien civilizations, you only need to pay a small salary. What is the difference between this price and zero? In a civilization, talent is the most important thing.
As for the third benefit, it can make the cooperation between the two parties closer. As long as there is enough cooperation and exchange, there will be no serious consequences of cheating and running away.
Moreover, this kind of market-oriented competition in the middle zone is a good supplement to the economic systems of both parties. This supplement will not harm the original economic system.
Some people may think that this kind of policy is "the sprouting of capitalism again" and may lead to a series of corruption.
However, this kind of sprout only appears in the middle zone of the alliance. The only ones that capital can really exploit are aliens, which have little to do with the operation of civilization itself. As for the occurrence of corruption, which is highly likely, what is more important is supervision and the improvement of laws and regulations to eliminate this corruption.
In this way, after these new policies were promulgated, they triggered a large wave of public opinion.
"The Alliance's Millennium Plan, Interstellar Trading Market!"
A large number of business leaders are already gearing up to open up a new market; there are also some young people who are unemployed because their knowledge level is not up to standard, and they are also beginning to ponder what this new market can bring to them. What kind of opportunities come...
