Superman, the Man of Steel, female, 6 years old!

Because of the presence of these two useless people, the female professor and Anna, these two guys would give the Russians some ridiculous and bad ideas from time to time.

Full scholarships for outstanding students have been a standard government practice for hundreds of years, and tax exemptions for businesses seeking to recruit talented employees are also a practice that has been overused by relevant departments.

However, the idea of ​​letting the special service ladies act as spies in the talent markets of various countries, not only giving generous rewards to the ladies who provide valuable intelligence, but also reimbursing invoices for those patrons who agree to disclose their information... is the unique original work of Anna and the female professor.

This kind of gossip, which is exciting, erotic and entertaining, does not require any advertising once it is released. However, it greatly increases the popularity of the emerging sport of simulator battles among the public who love to watch it.

Chapter 421 Becoming one of the top 500 people on the power list

The national central quantum computer of this era stores all the information of everyone from birth to death.

Moreover, the level of detail of the information is beyond everyone's friends and family, beyond everyone's parents and themselves, and beyond everyone's imagination.

Because in that intelligence network that covers the entire range of human activities, it records every piece of paper that everyone has written in their life, every test score, every stranger they have met in life, every word they have said, every meal they have eaten, every penny they have spent on buying items, and every minute they are under the surveillance camera.

Human memory fades.

Human perceptions will also change.

Therefore, no one's friends or relatives in this world, including themselves, can understand and remember them in the way that the central quantum computer can.

So in theory.

There's no need for government officials and employees from various departments to run around interrogating people, questioning them, recording, and analyzing them. All they need to do is query the central quantum computer, and the information they get is guaranteed to be so accurate that even the person themselves would be ashamed of themselves...

But human society doesn’t work that way.

Humans have established a central quantum computer system, but they are not inviting this machine to be their ancestor and ask it to make decisions on all matters in human society.

Perhaps the middle and lower classes would think that it would be a good thing to have a central computer without bias or emotion to decide all matters in society.

But the ruling class in the middle and upper levels of human society do not think so.

Very simple.

Because the computers do all the work.

So you still want them to touch your kidneys?

So how can they, who now dominate the production and life of half of the human beings on the earth, hand over the power to a computer and a few programmers?

Moreover, if there is a problem with this information center or it is controlled by the enemy, then humanity will explode on the spot in minutes.

So although the central quantum computer has powerful processing capabilities and its work efficiency is millions of times that of humans, there are only a few people in this world who have the authority to access and use it.

Surveillance is everywhere in this world.

The government doesn’t care what you, an ordinary citizen, eat at night, nor does it care if you sleep with your neighbor without telling your wife during your lunch break.

However, the highest echelons of government are certainly concerned about which of their employees are corrupt, who abuses their power for personal gain, who is most likely to embezzle or accept bribes, and who is selling top-secret national information. All of these issues, along with the rampant bureaucracy within the government, undermine the prestige of these top leaders and the country's ruling power.

Therefore, the central computer monitors and oversees government personnel to a degree unimaginable to the average person. Coupled with fragmented management and departmental divisions, even the smallest government office, every stamp and signature, undergoes dozens of computer monitoring and evaluation procedures, monitored by investigators and special agents at information centers thousands or even tens of thousands of kilometers away.

As some people imagine, the situation where anyone can just type a few lines of code in a computer and then take your information and sell it everywhere for profit has long disappeared when the supervision system was completed.

Moreover, not everyone in the government has access to the central computer system unless there are special mission requirements.

Just like when Graf was still in the International Fleet.

In the entire combat school, in fact, only he and his assistant Major Anderson have the authority to connect to the central quantum computer in the international fleet.

But these people's skills are too poor.

He didn't even know that his important computing system had been invaded by the Zerg Queen, and that the Queen's mind had entered Ender's psychological test game.

We've arrived at the Russians' place.

For example, within the entire KGB, and therefore the entire State Security Committee, the only individuals with full authority over their respective departments' quantum computers were the heads of the 16 main directorates, the heads of seven auxiliary departments, including the Border Guard Directorate and the Reconnaissance Technical Directorate, and the rest of the presidium. At any given time, the total number of these individuals never exceeded 30.

Why did the female professor follow Anna and slack off all the time?

In fact, it also has something to do with her backer, who is one of the "30 people" in the KGB.

Otherwise, there are people in the Russians who don’t know what happened.

The fact that he adopted Anna and Maimai in name and gave his house to them to live in, in the eyes of other jealous people, they would not let a useless female professor like her follow a big bug like Anna and reap the credit for nothing.

As for Anna and Mai Mai’s own wishes?

They are just two little kids, one is 10 years old and the other is 6 years old.

Who cares what they think?

This kind of routine disregard and neglect of human cubs, at least when Anna didn't show any offensive power or build a space station with her bare hands in Siberia, no one would care.

Of course, things are changing rapidly.

The authority and evaluation of the salted fish female professor in the government and the university remain the same.

However, Anna and Maimai's authority in the central quantum computer has increased unknowingly.

That is, when the simulator movement was being promoted nationwide in the United States and the superpower craze was popularizing among the people, Anna, who was slacking off at work in school, also obtained the highest authority of the Central Quantum Computer from the Russian Ministry of Science.

She had obtained this authority when she was in charge of the All-Russian Research Project.

However, the authority at that time was temporary and was automatically lost when she shifted her attention to the superpower school.

And now he is one of the 30 people with the highest authority in the Ministry of Science, and for Anna, it is a lifelong position.

This is naturally the final recognition made by the Ministry of Science for Anna's previous great contributions, as well as her recent innovations in mental research, human evolution, and the military command system.

Basically for Russia today.

Because she was awarded the highest authority by the Ministry of Science, it meant that Anna was one of the top 500 most important people in terms of power and status in the Russian government.

Of course, when she controlled the Ministry of Science and coordinated most of the Ministry of Industry, Anna's power was almost within the top ten in Russia. However, that position and power were temporary. When she stepped down from the Ministry of Science and became the president, it was almost gone. But Anna's current authority will last forever, even if she lives a life of idleness and waiting for death.

Given Anna's contributions, the authority she received wasn't surprising. She deserved both the status and the reward.

However, on the eve of the war with the Zerg.

Anna had obtained this authority more than ten years in advance through all the unspoken political rules...

It can’t be said that there were some small surprises and accidents.

Chapter 422 The Largest Pre-War Exercise

After the cost was reduced, combat and training with holographic simulators are now not only carried out in the superpower schools of the United States and Russia, but are also being carried out vigorously in other types of national military command schools, non-military schools, all human military training, and in the world of ordinary people.

Those in the superpower school certainly have unparalleled advantages in simulator battles. The minimum number of fighter planes that each of them can control is more than 100 times that of ordinary people.

However, there is only one person with a spiritual power of more than 20 points in this world for every 200 million people. Moreover, not all of them are good at fighting. Among them there are women, old men, and children who have not grown up.

And before Anna's mental detector appeared, these people were actually no different from ordinary people.

So not every gifted superpower is willing to fight.

Although many of them are currently studying in superpower schools, it doesn't mean they will necessarily become soldiers in the future. After humans clear out the Zerg strongholds within these 600 light years, a large number of them will become entrepreneurs, politicians, educators, and scientists.

And to be honest, a government composed mainly of ordinary people would not want to hand over all military command to these newly defined special groups that only account for more than 200 million of the total population.

Therefore, although these individuals will still be the primary commanders in the subsequent war against the Zerg, as they are the only ones who can unleash the maximum destructive power of humanity's intelligent army, in other areas of military operations, particularly the defense of the solar system and human internal security, the individuals currently being trained in the Psychic School will in fact always be restricted by all nations.

Even after the war with the Zerg ended, the large-scale retirement of these people, and the restrictions on entry into the solar system for those service personnel who still had authority in the space fleet, were all things that everyone tacitly accepted and took for granted.

Why did Russia break the convention and grant Anna the highest authority of the Ministry of Science in advance while the simulator was popular in society during this period?

It's because Anna, intentionally or unintentionally, has said several times in front of different people recently that "after the war, I will never return to Earth for the rest of my life", "I will become the governor of the Zerg planet I conquer", and so on...

Even Anna was so self-aware that she went into "self-exile" like Mazer Leihan after the war, not to mention the thousands of students who were still attending classes in school.

Therefore, the development of simulator battles, a new type of sports competition among ordinary people, is not only a commercial activity, but also a way for the military to select non-superpowered war talents for themselves.

This situation happened to the otakus in the community, the new recruits in the military camp, the security guards in the bar, etc. These ordinary people who were found to have performed particularly well in simulated battles were all recruited into a new type of military force by the government and relevant departments. Many people then speculated about what the army on Earth is doing now.

……

……

After Ander and his "Terminator Squad" began to command a new type of drone bombardment warship at school, another military exchange finally arrived in the superpower school.

During this military exchange, no outsiders came to Anna's superpower school.

But this time it was the largest "military exchange" and exercise in the history of the earth, involving all countries.

Because this military exchange activity is not only carried out between several military academies.

But wherever there is a simulator.

Everyone can participate in this exchange activity organized by the two superpowers, the United States and Russia, and the reorganized international fleet, just like participating in the World Cup and video game qualifying matches.

For military academies of all countries, as well as those units, agencies and relevant departments, the results of exchanges will to a certain extent determine their financial budgets and status in the government in the next two years.

For those who log into the simulator in bars, Internet cafes, or community sports centers, their performance and ranking in this exchange will also determine their personal future and opportunities for change in their lives to a certain extent.

After several weeks of preparation through programs, reality shows, billboards and holographic projections that can be seen everywhere in cities and villages, the number of people participating in this "military exchange" flow has directly exceeded 20 billion.

No one has any privileges in this exchange.

Everyone starts from scratch.

There is no such thing as anyone being on any national team or being able to advance without any qualification.

Under the network of more than 200 most powerful quantum computers.

The map of communication activities was limited by Anna and the human space general staff to an area within 600 light years.

It was like a preview of the coming war with the Zerg.

The 20 billion contestants were first randomly scattered on a complex map as big as the solar system to decide the winner.

Then, based on the final high score, the top-ranked players would gain the right to advance to the next stage. The number of places in the next stage was unknown to the general public, but insiders like Anna understood that it was determined by a multiple of the total size of the human fleet that would be deployed six months later.

In fact, except for the logistics and maintenance personnel in the human fleet.

This online combat-style communication is to prepare for humans to select the most powerful unmanned aircraft pilots and warship commanders.

After the simulator's battle exchanges and competitions entered the next stage.

This virtual human fleet will lead a fleet unprecedented in human history to expedition to the more than 100 Zerg planets.

The number of all enemies and insects is realized in the computer by multiplying the data obtained by scanning with deep space probes.

But this time all human fleets in the second phase.

Apart from the spontaneous organization of each team and their own alliances, the rules of the competition do not impose any specific commands or restrictions on them.

In addition to not betraying the alliance they signed in the competition, these people can attack the Zerg in the star field to gain points, and can even attack other human fleets to gain points and eliminate competitors.

When the final moment arrived.

Only those with the highest points will truly enter the third stage of the online competition.

Chapter 423: National Participation

In the third stage of the competition, all the remaining humans will command their own fleets and work together to fight a decisive battle on the battlefield against the Zerg, whose number is several times greater than the actual number.

However, these selected teams are not the final fleet commanders of mankind.

Because it doesn't matter how high or low other people's points are in the simulator.

The final commander of the human fleet will only be the one with the highest score on the leaderboard.

Maybe the second, third, or even the tenth squadron... they all have the potential to command a few real human fleets on the battlefield, but these people will always be backups and protective measures for the first.

After completing all three processes, it took exactly half a year.

This is just the right time for the human commanders who have already come out of the finals and the best fighter planes to rush to the front line.

Plan passes.

Of course, no matter how the human fleet fought against the Zerg in the third phase of the simulated battle, whether the humans chased the Zerg to the brink of extinction and shed blood, or died before achieving victory, or fought a protracted war of attrition with the Zerg in the simulator for dozens or even hundreds of years...

This time the human fleet will still set out.

Because the expeditionary fleets that had departed the solar system decades earlier had already begun slowing down from their faster-than-light flight several months earlier, a process that was irreversible with current human spacecraft's light-speed technology. So, regardless of the simulation's results, humanity couldn't abandon its heroes and fleets, who were about to reach the battlefield, to their deaths while they retreated at faster-than-light speeds.
