Chapter 11 This is how he became the Supreme Ruler of the Trisolarans
After what seemed like countless Three-Body Problems eras, Cheng Yuan, who was taking a nap in his room, heard the gentle female voice of his intelligent life assistant:
"Sir, the Führer requests to communicate with you."
Cheng Yuan opened his eyes and asked, "How much time has passed? It shouldn't be even a Three-Body Era yet, right?"
The intelligent life assistant said, "Sir, it's not time yet; only half of the Three-Body Problem era has passed."
Cheng Yuan straightened his clothes and said, "Then let's bring him in."
As Cheng Yuan finished speaking, the light and shadow in the room changed, and in the blink of an eye, he found himself in a meeting place.
This virtual meeting place was the same one he had visited before, and the participants were the same people: the Trisolaran leader and the governing officials from various fields of the Trisolaran civilization.
The difference is that Cheng Yuan's position in the venue has been adjusted; it is now the original position of the Trisolaran leader, while the Trisolaran leader is in another position.
Upon Cheng Yuan's arrival, the Trisolaran governors in the meeting room all stood up, even though they weren't actually sitting.
The Trisolaran leader addressed Cheng Yuan: "Respected Mr. Cheng Yuan, after a vote by the entire council of governors, you will be appointed as the supreme governor of civilization, leading civilization forward and adjudicating civilizational affairs."
"Power of office: Mr. Cheng Yuan has the highest authority in civilization, and all citizens of Trisolaris must unconditionally obey Mr. Cheng Yuan's orders; Term of office: Indefinite."
"This resolution shall be voted on by the Council of Consuls, and all citizens of the Trisolaran Empire must abide by it and may not disobey it!"
After saying this, the Trisolaran leader led the way in bowing to Cheng Yuan: "Greetings, Your Excellency the Supreme Ruler!"
Led by the Trisolaran leader, all the Trisolaran governors in the hall bowed to Cheng Yuan: "Greetings, Your Excellency, Supreme Governor!"
It was called a bow, but in reality, they simply lowered their heads slightly towards Cheng Yuan.
Cheng Yuan didn't have time to reply to them right away. After the Trisolaran leader announced that the council of rulers had voted on him to become the supreme ruler and possess the highest power in the Trisolaran civilization, a series of panels popped up in front of him, displaying various information, and notification sounds echoed in his ears:
"Your Excellency Supreme Ruler, the 'Annihilation Star' system access has been granted to you. Please note the following..."
"Your Excellency Supreme Ruler, Sophon's access has been granted to you. Please note the following..."
"Your Excellency Supreme Ruler, the Earth Civilization World Academy of Sciences has sent a communication request. Do you wish to grant access?"
There were simply too many messages popping up for Cheng Yuan to read at once, so he could only say, "Save all the messages, I'll look at them later."
The Trisolaran civilization is an interstellar civilization, generating a great deal of affairs every day. Even with governors in various fields handling these matters, there are still many things that need to be addressed by the supreme leader.
Cheng Yuan is certainly not capable of handling this now, and his understanding of the Trisolaran civilization is not specific enough to deal with these matters properly.
If you can't do it yourself, then seek help from professionals. Cheng Yuan never thought he wanted to be a model worker like the Ming Taizu.
After the panel that popped up in front of him disappeared, Cheng Yuan finally had time to look at the high-ranking members of the Trisolaran leadership in the meeting room.
Cheng Yuan was not surprised that the Trisolarans would agree to make him their leader.
He is the only straw the Trisolarans can grasp to escape the crisis. As long as the Trisolarans want to get out of the crisis, they will pragmatically agree to his conditions.
Moreover, Cheng Yuan comes from a higher dimension and has access to multiple planes, so the Trisolaran civilization can achieve a brighter future under his leadership.
As for the claim that the Trisolarans used methods to force him, how could they be sure they could force him?
What if Cheng had a way to make the multidimensional portal self-destruct?
Cheng Yuan said, "Since you have chosen to believe me, I hereby promise you that I will regard the Trisolaran civilization as my own and will never deliberately harm its interests!"
Now that he's become the Supreme Ruler of Trisolaris, the Trisolaran civilization is his own. Does he think he can just burn down his own house?
"Now, I hereby issue my first decree: appointing Trisolaran citizen Iron 11086 as Prime Minister of Civilization to assist me in handling civilization affairs."
"Powers: Handling internal affairs of the civilization; Authority level: Second only to the Supreme Administrator, does not possess the authority to approve high-level scientific research projects, appoint or dismiss Administrators, control the military, command weapons, or make decisions on matters affecting the civilization's survival; Term of office: Tentatively five Earth years or until dismissal by the Supreme Administrator. Orders to be executed immediately!"
Cheng Yuan stripped the Trisolaran leader of his original military and other powers, but retained his power to handle political affairs, making him his prime minister to help him manage the affairs of the Trisolaran civilization.
However, the order he has issued now has loopholes and needs to be supplemented in the future to make it more perfect.
Cheng Yuan's goal is to seize supreme power in the Trisolaran civilization, become the sole ruler of this giant ship, and make the Trisolaran civilization work for him. He will not allow anyone to threaten his power.
The Trisolaran leader said, "Citizen Iron 11086 obeys."
Iron 11086, the former leader of the Trisolaran civilization and now the first prime minister of the Trisolaran civilization, had just obtained authorization from Cheng Yuan when he saw the message "Communication request sent by the World Academy of Sciences of Earth Civilization".
He opened the document and looked at it, then said to Cheng Yuan, "Your Excellency, the Earth Civilization World Academy of Sciences has sent a message requesting that we send several more scientists specializing in molecular biology to provide them with guidance. How should we proceed?"
Upon hearing the Prime Minister's words, all the Trisolaran officials in the meeting room looked at Cheng Yuan.
Before Cheng Yuan existed, they unconditionally agreed to all requests from Earth's humans, transmitting massive amounts of knowledge and information to Earth in a short period of time and even sending scientists to provide guidance.
There's nothing we can do about it; they're intimidated by Luo Ji and are unlikely to lie or conceal anything.
But now, their supreme ruler is not a Trisolaran, but a being from a higher dimension, and they want to know how this person will handle the situation.
Cheng Yuan said, "Agree, but explain to them that scientists in the field of molecular biology in our civilization are currently involved in a major scientific project and cannot spare the time at the moment, so please ask them to wait."
"In addition, let them see which technologies require our additional scientists to provide guidance, and make a list. We will then prepare manpower according to the list."
The Scientific Governor said, "Your Excellency Supreme Governor, are you trying to deceive them?"
Cheng Yuan smiled and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Does the Science Administrator have any suggestions?"
The Trisolarans had long wanted to deceive humanity, but they had calculated that the possibility of them being able to fool humanity with their level of deception was extremely low. Therefore, they refrained from deception for the time being and honestly agreed to the demands made by humanity.
But things are different now; His Excellency the Supreme Ruler can lead them to deceive humanity.
Three hundred years in the east and three hundred years in the west of the Milky Way, humanity should have been deceived by them. The best part is that humanity doesn't really suspect anything.
Because humanity has no idea that their supreme leader has been replaced by a higher-dimensional being, they will only follow the inertia of their thinking and believe that they are still the original Trisolaran civilization that is not good at lying and deception.
Given the Trisolarans' clumsy lying skills, how could you possibly deceive them?
Don't make your human grandpa laugh!
