The existence of smart grid makes Umbrella Corporation's power transmission line the second network covering the world after the Internet.
If coupled with the recent success of the virtual world Earth OL, it seems that Umbrella Corporation has completely occupied the high ground in terms of energy and information.
Umbrella Corporation is the absolute leader in virtual networks, space exploration, and energy. However, science has no limits, and there are still more industries waiting for scientists to lead the trend.
The profit-seeking nature of capital drives them to continuously spend money to fund scientists they are optimistic about, thereby obtaining more benefits.
Among the many companies that are willing to invest to support scientists in their attempts, Umbrella Corporation is definitely the most generous one.
Power grids around the world can generate money faster than money printing machines. Even if a country burns out its money printing press, it is estimated that it will not be able to keep up with the speed of Umbrella Corporation wealth generation.
Umbrella Corporation makes countless amounts of money every day. Apart from investing in dreams, it may be difficult to find other uses. For research projects abandoned by various countries, Umbrella Corporation always collects data and then discusses the feasibility.
There are many scientists joining Umbrella Corporation, and pure research talents will naturally receive special treatment. For scientists with different research abilities, Umbrella Corporation is also divided into three levels, which is not necessarily the case. But only in comparison can people feel happiness more clearly...
Those who can avoid being obsessed with the virtual universe are mentally tough people who can stick to their ideals and engage in scientific research. Of course, Umbrella Corporation must provide matching benefits.
As for ordinary people immersed in the virtual world, they are also well taken care of. The total number of human races is indispensable for the contribution of any one person. How to put it, although capitalism has always been popular, the dream of socialism has been realized. At least everyone has a job, a house, and is still alive.
Now medical care and education are all taken care of by the government. After death, you can freely choose whether to upload to the virtual world in the hospital of Umbrella Corporation. Having such benefits would make you laugh out of your dreams.
As for why Umbrella Corporation went to great lengths to collect the bodies of deceased people, I can only say that everyone understands.
The exploration of the universe is still going on, but trying to find a habitable planet in the endless deep space is like looking for a needle in a haystack. No livable planet has been found yet, but many planets with various resources that can be mined have been found. With the explosion of technology and people with great imagination, some interest groups can't wait to start mining.
Mining and transportation with current technology is obviously not cost-effective. Instead of transporting it back and forth thousands of miles away, it would be more profitable to produce the finished product and then transport it back to the earth. However, it is obviously not cost-effective to use energy-consuming high technology such as jump for transportation. Therefore, the sublight transport ship project was scooped out of the corner of Umbrella Corporation.

In a universe measured in light years, the risks faced by sublight speed spacecraft transportation are obviously too many irresistible factors. Once there is a loss, I believe that even a complete country cannot afford that loss. Moreover, only Umbrella Corporation can build a sublight speed spacecraft now.
Purchasing an exploration ship has already cost a lot of money. If the purchase of a transport ship fails, it will probably bankrupt the country. Don't say that if a country defaults on its debts, what can a company do? Can you bear to just cut off the internet and power?
Countries can't wait to monetize the discovered resource planets, but naturally the governments cannot bear all the risks involved.
As a result, the official faced private enterprises, and the public-private partnership plan to develop extraterrestrial planets was born. And where in the world is there a more suitable partner than Umbrella Corporation? Therefore, almost all countries in the world are actively seeking Umbrella Corporation to join their own extraterrestrial planet mining plans.
Do you dare to think that the government is going to lend me money to buy my ship and equipment to develop the resource planet I know. The key is to cooperate with me and share the risks and benefits equally. I understand the reasoning behind this, but it always feels a little weird.
Of course, this is the official statement of cooperative development. In fact, most of the exploration ships bought back by the officials of various countries have entered the hands of certain powerful interest groups, making their own money in the name of the country.
Introducing private companies to join is just a way for the left hand to guide the right hand, so that one does not look so embarrassed. As for asking for Umbrella Corporation to join, I am really rubbish, so I am asking for guidance from the boss.
Of course, if you have money and people, you can do it independently. Just like Five Great Benevolent Ones, they are integrating resources and preparing to try some new cooperation models. Holding together for warmth is an innate ability of human beings. Thousands of years of experience tell everyone that this is a very useful method.
There are many smart people in the world, and there are certainly many people who can see the benefits contained in developing the universe.
But the threshold for developing the universe is too high, and it is obviously not something that ordinary people can join. Fortunately, life at this time is still within the range they can accept. Instead of having to worry about it, it is a wonderful thing to be able to live according to your own ideas.
Looking back at what ordinary people say, after more than ten years of cramming education after birth, after choosing a piece of knowledge that interests you, it is stuffed into the depths of your memory. Then let you go out of school and experience the beatings from society. Let you make a choice between the beauty of the virtual world and the seemingly prosperous reality that is comparable to hell on earth.
If you are immersed in the virtual world and are willing to be like ordinary living beings, then you can choose to embrace the virtual world, get married and have children normally. Finally, when you reach the age, you face the final choice in life. Whether to take drugs and enter virtual worlds. Either take drugs in exchange for a large amount of money, then convert into a digital soul, enter the virtual world and live a false and happy life, or die completely.
Extraordinary people have another extraordinary experience. Maybe you were discovered to have a special talent early on, and then you were specially trained by the government or a big company. With his extraordinary talent, he is heading towards a better future with the help of drug addicts one after another.
In the face of generous rewards and privileges, you get married, have children, and have a seemingly good future. In the end, you have to face the final choice in life, whether to take drugs and enter the virtual world.
After taking drugs, you may make greater contributions and receive richer returns. You may choose to leave the money to your children and die completely; or you may choose to transform into a digital soul and replenish your virtual world life with more virtual coins than you can spend in several lifetimes.
