"I need to correct two misconceptions you have..."
Lu Xing said, "Neither the collective system nor the elite policy were proposed by . The collective system has existed since ancient tis, and its true proposer has passed away many years ago. The proposer of the all-mber elite policy is the leader of the Wandering Alliance, Constant Star Demon Star. It was he who proposed the all-mber elite policy and talked to us about the importance of education. Eventually, he established the all-mber elite policy and the New Star Plan as the long-term policies of the Wandering Alliance, unwavering even until the destruction of the Universe."
"Oh, so it was proposed by Constant Star, I really didn’t expect that. Not only is Constant Star exceptional in combat, but also in managent skills," representatives from the Eternal Life Civilization and the Mushroom Civilization were shocked and could not help but look at the dazzling Constant Star in the sky.
Lu Xing continued, "Secondly, my identity is really quite ordinary, and I am not leading the Earth Civilization. To be precise, it is the collective that we are all part of that leads each of us. Perhaps, by the ti you visit Earth again, I may no longer hold my current position."
A person from Mushroom Star asked, "What do you an by this? Do you an to say that even in the Eternal Life era, leaders need to be changed?"
Lu Xing sowhat helplessly said, "Our cultures are different, you may not understand what I an. But as you ntioned, indeed our leadership positions need to be changed. However, the term ’change of term’ is not precise. The term ’rotating duty’ more accurately describes the leadership system under our collective system."
Seeing that the representatives from both civilizations were still confused, Lu Xing continued to explain: "The duty system is simply like a CEO of a company, where people from the duty group take turns on duty. This ans that, in fact, everyone has the chance to be a leader, so the position of leader is really a very common one now. You might find it easier to understand this way."
"It’s truly amazing, Earth. I doubt if what we define as their leader is the sa thing. You actually casually rotate duty without fearing any ss? Everyone’s ideas must also be different, and if there’s no selection process, how do you ensure that your society progresses steadily?"
Despite their incredulity, the Eternal Life Civilization and the Mushroom Civilization finally understood why Lu Xing had ntioned that his position was very ordinary when they first t; it wasn’t out of modesty, but because it truly was ordinary as everyone had the chance to take turns. However, they still didn’t understand why the Wandering Alliance would implent such a puzzling tactic.
Lu Xing stated, "I know you don’t understand, but we are able to implent this system because it is built on our special social frawork. As I ntioned before, the all-mber elite policy is a long-term policy of the Wandering Alliance. This policy ensures everyone is an elite. Since everyone is an elite, why waste effort in choosing? Therefore, there’s naturally no ’selection’ as you ntioned. Selection in itself is a relatively derogatory term, implying a difference in the quality of the people, which also ans there is a disparity in the resources they obtain during their growth. However, the collective system is a group system, a new way of wealth distribution, where people fairly obtain resources."
Upon hearing this, the Eternal Life Civilization and the Mushroom Civilization suddenly saw the light.
Compared to the older brother in the Wandering Alliance, they, as the recently joined younger brothers, were indeed too backward in their thoughts.
Lu Xing continued to explain: "Secondly, the Eternal Life Civilization, you have also achieved eternal life to so extent, and you should understand that working in the sa job for a long ti can get tireso. Therefore, when we feel tired, we usually apply to switch to other jobs that interest us. Given the infinite span of living eternally, those who live longer can end up working in increasingly many professions. For example, I have essentially worked in all the professions in our society, I have even been a scientist specializing in cosmic physics. After then changing jobs, I beca a reserve candidate for scientists. Our duty system starts with the oldest individuals, ensuring that each duty leader is an experienced elite. Furthermore, with a rotation every ten years, this also provides a long growth period for newborn lives. As the older generation finishes their duties, the new ones grow and beco older, and so the cycle continues."
Up until then, the Eternal Life Civilization and Mushroom Civilization had just realized that the Wandering Alliance wasn’t as reckless as they thought. Behind every decision, there was thorough consideration, making their own thoughts seem too simplistic and assumptive. Naturally, they also realized once again how outdated their thinking was, showing that liberating their minds was indeed an urgent matter.
Lu Xing then said, "Thirdly..."
A Mushroom Star individual couldn’t help but ask, "There’s a third point?"
Indeed, just the first two points seed enough to them, but surprisingly, there was a third point.
Lu Xing smiled and said: "Of course, there’s a third point, and it’s the most crucial one. The system of communism is a collective society, an ideal society without any class distinctions. Oppression and exploitation have been eradicated by us. Now, we are striving to eliminate the traditional ruling and ruled classes, making the system of communism the ultimate mode in this historical mission. We have reached a consensus that the duty leaders act more as a symbol and do not hold much actual power."
"Leaders have no real power? How did you manage to relinquish control? Temptation of power is no minor issue for human nature!" remarked Yong Hui, the leader of the Eternal Life Civilization.
Lu Xing replied: "Money and power are natural products of eras of material scarcity. When your productivity progresses to our level and your awareness rises to our level, you too will naturally abandon these remnants of the old era, just as your civilization has abandoned outdated concepts through its developntal history. Therefore, you need to enhance your productivity, liberate your thinking, keep up with the tis, and take a long-term perspective. Avoid being confined to imdiate, personal minor benefits that can disrupt or hinder the developnt of society. Only when your civilized society develops will you truly reap more benefits."
An Eternal Life individual said, "I have a question, if the duty person holds no real power, who then manages everyday affairs of your society? There must be a manager, and as long as this role exists, he essentially is what’s defined as a leader."
Lu Xing explained, "As I ntioned earlier, a communist society is a collective society, led by the collective which comprises us, the mbers. Each of us has a very high level of ideological consciousness, otherwise, we couldn’t implent a system of communism. Thus, each one of us can be terd a leader."
Lu Xing continued: "In light of this, we have proposed a new concept, that of an Intelligent Society. We strive to transform our communist society into a thoughtful, living social system. It progresses, develops, and adjusts itself, similar to an intelligent system, where each one of us acts like a small component of this intelligent social system. When the Intelligent Society needs adjustnts, the cooperation among us, these components, drives the system. Thus, under the self-managent concept of the Intelligent Society, there is no need for outdated, traditional managent structures."
"So to say, each of our policies complents one another, but if any link is substandard, problems can easily arise. Therefore, regarding your idea to try an all-mber elite education system when you return, I advise you not to rush. You lack the necessary foundations now; you need to first liberate your thoughts, elevate your ideological levels, and develop your productivity. When everything is ready, a transformation will naturally occur," Lu Xing finally advised.
Lu Xing’s words made the delegations from the Eternal Life Civilization and Mushroom Civilization feel as if they had seen a gateway to a paradise of truth.
