I, transformed into a vampire girl, sparked the Industrial Revolution.

Chapter 217 The New Technological Revolution

“No, this is how it’s done here, Director Sainz….”

Raffarin Low put down the phone and let out a long sigh. Ten thousand years later, no one could have imagined that things would turn out this way. This civilization is following the path of Earth's civilization, moving beyond the age of power and steel, and is advancing towards the next era.

She drew back the curtains. Compared to the first time ten thousand years ago when she awakened the new humans she created herself, today's new civilization can use chemical and textile industries to transform nature's gifts into the products it desires.

As the two moons crossed the horizon, casting their light upon the earth, and as the last ray of sunlight rose from the horizon, this man-made land, in an instant, lit up with twinkling lights like the stars in the sky.

Looking down from above, the city of De la Leyé resembles a bright spiderweb, with the lights of civilization shimmering within.

From the first wisp of steam in the industrial age to the dazzling lights of today, from the steam revolution to the electrical revolution, Raffarin Loe has seen it all clearly.

Survivors from the previous era gripped their terminals tightly, pointed the miniature lens at the horizon, and pressed a virtual button with their thumbs, capturing the moment in a digital container.

Raffarin Low strolled to the other end of the room and turned on the light. Relying on the discipline of magic, which spread to the real universe ten thousand years ago, by a twist of fate, miniature light-emitting magic tubes, which function almost identically to light-emitting diodes, were already widespread in every household before the information revolution.

As the lights shone down, the room came into view of enormous machines arranged like wardrobes, and Raffarin Lo walked straight to one of them. She knew that the object before her would further change the world.

Light is composed of red, green, and blue, the three primary colors, which can be combined to create all the colors visible to the human eye in optics.

In the center of the house, there is a huge box that looks unremarkable, even somewhat ugly.

Raffarin Lo reached out and pressed a switch on the box, and then, a burst of light appeared.

Cathode ray tube displays were nothing new in Amerlane; in late 657, Amerlane Electrical Equipment Company launched the first CRT black and white display.

Last month, the first true color CRT television also entered the market.

She turned her head and looked at the tallest building in the city at the time—the De La Leyer City Television Station. This steel tower, like a silver needle, pierced the sky, and the huge antenna at the top of the tower would bring the future.

Raffarin Lo turned on the television by twisting a button. The screen displayed the fixed message "No Signal." She turned the button again to change the channel, and the antenna then received the electromagnetic waves, which were converted into electrical signals.

"This is CCTV, the national television station of America. Welcome to CCTV's premiere. Today's news program is..."

Further developments in electromagnetism led to the development of live television technology. After the invention of display technology, breaking through long-distance radio signal transmission became a piece of cake. The combination of the two resulted in television technology.

Raffarin Lo nodded. The black and white television channel seemed perfectly stable in every way, but she wasn't there to watch it.

She turned on the second television set and tuned it to CCTV. The two television sets looked almost identical, and the screen displays were nearly indistinguishable at that moment.

But there was more to the room than that. Raffarin Law lifted the cloth off a table, revealing substrates, inorganic LEDs, and liquid crystals scattered haphazardly on the table. On the table were books: "Molecular Physics" and "Research on Liquid Crystals."

With the development of the magic industry, many things that traditional industries cannot solve can be done ahead of time in Amelansi, such as silicon nitride.

Using the powerless magic crystal, Raffarin Low solved the problem of liquid crystal interlayers, but until recently, blue LED beads were successfully completed, and miniaturization was achieved at great expense.

The finished product is this expensive, entirely domestically produced LCD screen.

Three televisions of different technologies and specifications simultaneously displayed black and white images. But what Lafargue was waiting for was not a black and white image. She looked at the terminal on her arm; the time was almost up.

"Dear viewers, thanks to technological upgrades, I am honored to announce that Amerlane National Central Television is about to enter the color era—3, 2, 1—Welcome to the world of color!"

The countdown was brief and fast. The television in front of Raffarin Law burst into color. The black and white era of Amelia was short enough that many people witnessed color for the first time on this magical screen. Perhaps many people will not remember this day, but Raffarin Law does.

The three monitors represent the next era, while the enormous machine behind her roars for science. The second-generation RCA501 computer works day and night, propelling this civilization into the next era.

The phone rang, and she picked it up. It was her companion on the other end.

"Ah, Alice, that's right. Of course, Trinitron isn't a huge breakthrough, but the LCD is also a success, and the materials are good... The RCA501 is also running successfully and can be put into use."

"You mean a computer company? Of course, I'll be the head? Of course... but don't ask me to name it... ISM? International Scientific Machines Corporation? Okay, got it."

Raffarin Law hung up the phone. The television in the room was playing slightly distorted and jarring music. The music player was not technologically advanced; it was a ready-made product bought from the market, which was out of place with the other technological creations in this building called the Amerlane University of Electronic Science and Technology Research Institute.

As the principal, she simply wanted to give a push towards the future path of electronic information science in this nascent civilization.

She fiddled with the personal terminal in her hand, manufactured by the Earth United Nations Phobos Electronic Computer Production Consortium. Despite the passage of tens of thousands of years, its components remained undamaged. She retrieved records from ten thousand years ago, showing how the lights of human cities could be seen from space as golden rings and lines, shining with the brilliance of civilization on planet after planet.

She didn't know if the light of Ideal City still shone on Sirius IV, if Earth was still as lush and green as before, or if the drumbeats of industry still echoed on Mars as they did before.

She still remembered these things, ten thousand years ago, before the enemy flooded into the galaxy, in that era that shone with the spirit of exploration.

Perhaps humanity is dead, perhaps it is still alive. Fortunately, the new civilization is moving forward along the path that humanity once followed.
