What the Hell Do You Know About the Wallfacer Plan?!

The Wallfacer Hearing convened, but only two Wallfacers, Radiiaz and Luo Ji, were present. Shiens could not attend because he had entered hibernation, while Lin Feng participated via video link.

Just as he had discussed with the CIA agents before, he used "avoiding getting beaten up by Radiiaz" as an excuse to make the PDC agree to let him attend the Wallfacer Hearing this way.

PDC Rotating Chairman Garnin was the first to speak, making it clear that the Planetary Defense Council's authority to oversee the Wallfacer Plan took precedence over the Wallfacer Plan itself. Representatives of all the permanent member states responded in turn, as though they had rehearsed this little play beforehand.

Even without publicly declaring it, the Planetary Defense Council already possessed oversight authority above the Wallfacer Plan. The purpose of bringing it up explicitly at this meeting was not to establish the PDC's authority to oversee the Wallfacer Plan, but to weaken the Wallfacer Plan's power.

By elevating the PDC's authority, they lowered All Humanity's perception of the Wallfacer Plan's authority.

This decision had resulted from many factors, including public pressure, political sensitivity, and resource allocation. But most importantly, the representatives of the United Nations member states were gradually losing faith in the Wallfacer Plan.

Luo Ji was just going through the motions. Taylor had been exposed by ETO three times. Shiens's plan looked like some fantastical fairy tale. Radiiaz's plan seemed somewhat more plausible, but Stellar Nuclear Bombs were enormously expensive, and nuclear weapons were not suited for space warfare.

Not one of the four Wallfacers seemed truly reliable. At least, the representatives of the various nations could not see any plan capable of genuinely deterring the Trisolarans. It forced them to wonder, "Does the Wallfacer Plan really need to exist?" and "Wouldn't it be better to invest the resources poured into the Wallfacer Plan into building the human fleet?"

This stripping of power was only the first step. Similar things would likely happen afterward. Even through the screen, Lin Feng could keenly sense an atmosphere within the United Nations that differed from the past.

Radiiaz was being severely marginalized within the United Nations, while Luo Ji merely went through the motions. Soon, it was Lin Feng's turn.

Lin Feng cleared his throat. "I recently noticed something interesting. Humanity is gradually losing its fighting spirit. From top to bottom, without exception, everyone believes that humanity can no longer win a war against the Trisolarans."

"In my opinion, that's utterly ridiculous."

"Our enemy hasn't fired a single shot or shell. They've only fucking said a few words, sent over a few Sophons, and cultivated a group of traitors within humanity—and humanity has already become dispirited and lost its will to fight."

"We still have several centuries! We've lost our fighting spirit before the battle has even begun? Where is the passion and resolve from when the Wallfacer Plan was first launched? Is this all there is?"

By this point, every national representative could tell that Lin Feng was talking about them, accusing them of stripping power from the Wallfacer Plan.

The permanent member state representatives said nothing. The Australian representative spoke into his microphone.

"Wallfacer Feng Taylor, you have no right to criticize anyone. Having been exposed by ETO twice, you should be ashamed of your failures rather than standing here and blaming others."

Lin Feng sneered in reply. "Then why don't you become a Wallfacer? Lead humanity against the Trisolarans, Australian representative."

"From the very beginning, I've repeatedly stressed that no one understands Wallfacing better than I do. This is all part of my plan."

The moment those words came out, the entire hall erupted. Some national representatives were furious, some mocked him, and some remained calm. Their reactions all conveyed the same message to Lin Feng—No! This is not part of the plan! What the hell do you know about the Wallfacer Plan?!

The Spanish representative spoke. "Wallfacer Feng Taylor, there is no point arguing about this. The space fleet needs more resources directed toward it. The Wallfacer Plan can only assist the future human fleet in narrowing the technological gap with the Trisolaran Fleet. It is not the key to determining victory or defeat."

"The Wallfacer Plan is not a license to do whatever you want."

Lin Feng shifted his gaze to the Spanish representative and asked with a mocking sneer, "Spanish representative, are you the future human fleet's chief of staff who came back from the future?"

The Spanish representative's expression immediately darkened. Private discussions among the national representatives grew increasingly frequent, and the whole hall became as noisy as a bustling marketplace.

PDC Rotating Chairman Garnin struck the table with his gavel, and the clamorous hall immediately fell silent.

"Wallfacer Feng Taylor, I ask that you show respect for the participants. Your language at this meeting is inappropriate. At the same time, I ask the other participants to watch their language as well and give the Wallfacers the respect they deserve."

Garnin said to Lin Feng, "The Planetary Defense Council has oversight authority over the Wallfacers. Wallfacer Feng Taylor, you are obligated to give the PDC a brief account of your plan."

This Wallfacer Hearing was intended, on one hand, to strip the Wallfacers of power, and on the other, to make Lin Feng reveal his plan.

Luo Ji was merely going through the motions. Radiiaz and Shiens already had clear plans. Lin Feng was the only one whose situation remained unknown.

Lin Feng had once revealed that he had many plans, and the facts had proven that to be true.

After Macro Electron energy storage came AI applications that expanded the labor force. These were tangible benefits visible throughout human society.

Lin Feng did not know that, compared with Luo Ji, Radiiaz, and Shiens, he held a higher status in the eyes of the national representatives, even after being exposed twice.

Otherwise, they would not even have bothered to refute his earlier remarks.

Given that the Wallfacer Plan was now being stripped of power and the PDC was disappointed in it, Lin Feng knew he could no longer brush things off as he had before. The people present now could not be moved by a simple "this is part of the plan."

So he simply agreed. "Fine. Then I'll give everyone a brief account of my plan."

"I envisioned a machine. It would be very small, similar to a hibernation pod. A person could lie inside it. It would contain VR gear, allowing humans to enter a virtual world and control robots within that virtual world to complete various tasks."

The plan Lin Feng described was aimed at the effeminate trend in humanity's future. He intended to shift humanity's primary social interactions online, then reshape people's values by adjusting public discourse.

As for fighting the Trisolarans? Non-existence.

With Luo Ji around, everything was secure.

Thinking that, Lin Feng confidently smiled and nodded at Luo Ji, leaving Luo Ji, who had been quietly going through the motions at the side, utterly baffled.

"What would be the point of that?" PDC Rotating Chairman Garnin asked.

Lin Feng explained, "There would be a point. It could guide social trends. The Dark Forest Crisis has caused more and more people to refuse to have children. According to projections by experts on my team, human society will face a large-scale aging crisis several centuries from now. And that's not all. We could vigorously develop virtual games centered on space warfare, recreating space combat environments and survival in space with one hundred percent accuracy, turning all humanity into a reserve source of soldiers who could be deployed after only basic training."

Of course, those were all excuses. His true target had always been humanity's future effeminate trend and its naïve idealist trend. He wanted to completely shatter humanity's "arrogance."
