INTRODUCTION

介绍

 

WE LIVE IN A DYSTOPIAN WORLD, MY FRIENDS, FILLED WITH CRIME, CORRUPTION, AND POVERTY-RULED BY MIGHTY, POWER-HUNGRY CORPORATIONS AND HEARTLESS, BRUTAL GOVERNMENTS.

我们生活在一个反乌托邦的世界,充满了犯罪、腐败和贫困。而这个世界,也被强大、渴望权力的企业和无情、残忍的政府统治着。

 

Each year we're facing another global crisis, and each day we’re forced to face the consequences of the previous ones. The corporate-backed mass media-like N54 or WNS-are feeding society with bland, easy-to-digest pap of processed news, brainwashing programs, and commercials-enforcing the ever-popular trend to “buy more and think less.”

每一年我们都面临着另一场全球危机,而每一天我们都被迫面对前一场危机的后果。企业支持的大众媒体——像是N54或WNS——正在用乏味的、易于消化的处理新闻、洗脑节目和商业广告哺育社会——强化了“多买少想”的流行趋势。

【夏虫注:这里所说的N54应该是Network News 54,夜之城中一家24小时新闻电台,在2077视频中出现过多次。WNS全称World News Service,一家总部设在英国伦敦,并会播报全球新闻的媒体公司。】

 

They do this because it's easier to control and manipulate the ignorant, uneducated sheeple than those that are educated, well-informed, and aware of the world around them.

他们这样做是因为,比起那些受过教育、消息灵通、了解周围世界的人,控制和操纵无知、未受教育的人更容易。

 

And yet you’re here because you don’t want to be another mindless sheep, aren’t you?

而你在这里,是因为你不想成为另一只容易被操控的人(没脑子的羊),对吗?

 

In our reality, there is a huge need for free media. There are dozens of indie news stations and information sites - and the first step to independent thought is to seek them out.

在我们的现实生活中,我们对自由媒体有着巨大的需求。现在有很多独立的新闻电台和信息网站,而独立思考的第一步就是找到它们。

 

We, the Night City Inquirer, are one such site. You won’t see our advertisements on the displays downtown-but we’re here, maintaining our ever-moving website on the Net.

我们,夜之城调查报,就是这样一个网站。你不会在市中心的显示屏上看到我们的广告——但我们在这里,维护着我们不断变化的网络上的网站。

 

We’re not some clueless rebels, straining for influence against major corporations. We just present you news, essays, and stories from the real world, showing things as they are without the corporate bias and icing on the top. We’re collaborating with courageous independent writers, correspondents, investigative journalists, and experts in various fields to provide you with real information, giving you an opportunity to think for yourself and to motivate you to search for further genuine info. Because in today's world, knowledge and the ability to distinguish truth from fake news are the real superpowers.

我们不是一些愚蠢的反叛者,试图影响大公司。我们只是向你呈现真实世界中的新闻、论文和故事,展示事物没有企业偏见,也没有添油加醋的本来面目。我们与勇敢的独立作家、通讯员、记者和各个领域的专家合作,为你提供真实的信息,给你一个独立思考的机会,并激励你进一步搜索真实的信息。因为在当今世界,知识和辨别真假新闻的能力才是真正的超级力量。

 

Do the big companies try to shut us down? Occasionally. But in most cases, they don't pay much attention to us. We don't affect their ratings, and they have bigger fish to fry- mostly fighting each other. Most of our info isn’t restricted anyway-it's just that this kind of info is omitted, hushed, or unpopular because it isn't in line with the corporations’ interests. Have you heard that Petrochem recently lost two trials at the Supreme Court in Spain? That NetWatch was nearly kicked out of Australia, and Militech-backed mercenaries were forced to withdraw from Iceland after the joint military intervention by the Scandinavian countries? These are the facts, but you won't hear it in the news ... At least not from the corporate-controlled media in Night City.

大公司想让我们关门吗?时有发生。但在大多数情况下,他们不会太注意我们。我们不影响他们的评级,而他们也有更重要的事情要做——主要是互相争斗。我们的大部分信息并没有受到限制——只是这类信息被省略了,被隐瞒了,或者不受欢迎,因为它不符合公司的利益。你听说过Petrochem最近在西班牙最高法院输了两次官司吗?那名网络监察员几乎被赶出澳大利亚,在斯堪的纳维亚国家联合军事干预后,有军队支持的雇佣军被迫撤出冰岛?这些都是事实,但你不会在新闻中听到…至少不是来自夜之城公司控制的媒体。

 

The fact that we’re not at war with the corporations doesn’t mean that we're not writing stories big enough to make their CEOs shudder. That’s why we’re careful and protective of our associates and collaborators. Some of them are top-notch news reporters who write for us under fake names, hiding their identities so as not to lose their jobs-or lives. We value the privacy of our contacts too. You can provide us with some authentic, interesting material without fear that your identity will be divulged to the public.

事实上,我们没有与公司开战,并不意味着我们没有写出足以让他们的CEO不寒而栗的大故事。这就是为什么我们要小心保护我们的同事和合作者。他们中的一些人是一流的新闻记者,用假名为我们撰稿,隐藏他们的身份以避免失去他们的工作甚至生命。我们也很重视我们联系人的隐私。你可以为我们提供一些真实、有趣的材料,不用担心你的身份被泄露给公众。

 

So why this form? Why text?

那么为什么是这种形式呢?为什么用文字呢?

 

Have you ever wondered why Nomads speak in such a strange, often overly-sophisticated way? That’s because their mobile homeschooling system forces them to actually read, not simply watch the news. We strongly believe that the excess of modern technologies harms our interpersonal communication, affecting our relationships and communities. Plugging yourself in to the feeder makes you vulnerable to intrusive commercials and pushy propaganda. Reading longform text is a dying ability in our modern world, so to prevent the extinction of the written word we’re elected to support the form at our website (ok. we know that not everyone has time to read nowadays, so we also have voice-over versions of our artictes available to download).

你有没有想过为什么游牧民族说话的方式如此奇怪,往往过于复杂?这是因为他们的移动家庭教育系统迫使他们真正地阅读,而不仅仅是看新闻。我们坚信,过度的现代技术损害了我们的人际交流,影响了我们的关系和社区。把自己插进馈线会让你很容易受到广告和宣传的干扰。在我们的现代社会,阅读长篇文本的能力正在消亡,所以为了防止书面文字的消亡,我们选择在我们的网站上支持这种形式(我们知道现在不是每个人都有时间阅读,所以在网站上也可以下载我们的文章的朗读版本)。

 

Thanks for reading this far. Feel free to visit our archives and browse the latest materials and essays that will give you a glimpse of the world as it is.

谢谢你读到这里。请随意访问我们的档案,浏览最新的资料和文章,让你对世界有一个大致的了解。

EDITORS NOTE

编者按

 

We acknowledge that transportation is a vast field of technology in its own right, so for the purposes of this recap we’ve limited the discussion to ground vehicles, aerodynes, and drones. We hope to present you with other articles on water vehicles, airplanes, and Assisted Combat Personnel Armor in the months to follow. Stay tuned!

我们承认,交通运输本身就是一个巨大的技术领域,因此,为了这个重述的目的,我们将讨论限制在地面交通工具、飞行器和无人机。我们希望在接下来的几个月里为您呈现其他关于水上交通工具、飞机和辅助作战人员装甲的文章。请继续关注!

 

We would like to thank our consultant-Mitch from the Aldecaldos family-for his invaluable aid in the creation of this material. He didn't agree to an interview, but he was a real gas-powered fountain of information, and his comments proved to be an invaluable source of information on the topic.

我们要感谢我们的顾问——来自Aldecaldos家族的Mitch,感谢他在此文章的编纂过程中提供的宝贵帮助。他不同意接受采访,但他确实是一个不可或缺的信息泉源。事实证明,他的评论是这个话题的宝贵信息来源。

【夏虫注:Aldecaldos家族是流浪者家族里的一支,详细解说视频请见B站视频】


The automotive and aviation industry of 2077 is booming. From ail kinds of cars and trucks, to aerial vehicles like planes and helicopters, to speedboats, to drones, the range of vehicles is so broad that everyone can find something to suit their tastes, assuming that they can afford (or steal) it.

2077年的汽车和航空工业正在蓬勃发展。从各种各样的汽车和卡车,到像飞机和直升机这样的空中交通工具,到快艇,再到无人机,交通工具的种类如此之广,以至于每个人都能找到适合自己口味的东西,只要他们买得起(或者偷得到)。

 

The industry was temporarily stalled by global recession and fuel shortages, but is gaining momentum again as new technologies are developed and implemented by automotive companies. Aerodynes are becoming more and more popular, but are still expensive to produce and operate when compared to other means of transport. Nevertheless, their growing numbers have had an impact on city planning and layout, which is constantly adapting to ever-increasing air traffic.

由于全球经济衰退和燃料短缺,汽车行业一度陷入停滞,但随着汽车公司开发和应用新技术,该行业正再次获得动力。飞行器正变得越来越受欢迎,但与其他运输工具相比,它的生产和操作仍然昂贵。尽管如此,它们的不断增多已经对城市规划和布局产生了影响,使其不断适应不断增长的空中交通。

 

Outside of urban areas, on the wide open roads of America, cars have become a vital part of the Nomad culture. Not only are automobiles a means of transportation for entire families and tribes of the Seven Nations, but a symbol of their independence.

在城市之外,在美国宽阔的道路上,汽车已经成为流浪者文化的重要组成部分。汽车不仅是这流浪者七大部落的整个家庭和部落的交通工具,而且是他们独立的象征。

 

-MITCH, 2077

A HISTORY OF VEHICLES AFTER THE FOURTH CORPORATE WAR

第四次公司战争后的汽车历史

 

THE FIRST DECADES AFTER THE FOURTH Corporate War weren’t very kind to the vehicle industry. In the late ‘20s and ‘30s, fuel shortages caused by global crises, the destruction of refinery infrastructure, and crop blight caused by bioengineered combat viruses grounded a significant percentage of more advaneed vehicles. This mainly affected publicly and privately used aerodynes, which are fueled by an intermediate (and more complex to manufacture) version of CHOOH2. The same fuel was simultaneously in demand for civilian and military aircraft, so in some parts of the world AVs were almost completely absent from the skies for almost twenty years.

第四次公司战争后的头几十年对汽车工业并不友好。在20世纪20年代末和30年代,全球危机造成的燃料短缺,炼油厂基础设施的破坏,以及生物工程病毒造成的农作物枯萎,使得相当大比例的更先进的车辆都无法使用。这主要影响到公共和私人使用的飞行器,它们是由中间版本的CHOOH2燃料(制造起来更复杂)。民用飞机和军用飞机同时需要同样的燃料,所以在世界上的一些地方,近20年来,空中几乎完全没有飞行器。

 

The petroleum industry’s lack of stability over the following years resulted in the invention of numerous unique hybrid systems. Various biofueled, hydrogeoperated, and electric motors were researched in this period, but none proved to be an ultimate substitution. Fossil-based fuels also made a comeback in some parts of the world as the extraction of oil and methane became profitable once again.

在接下来的几年里,石油工业的不稳定性导致了许多独特的混合系统的发明。在这一时期,人们研究了各种生物燃料、液压驱动和电动马达,但没有一个被证明是最终的替代品。随着石油和甲烷的开采再次有利可图,化石燃料在世界一些地区也卷土重来。

 

A major breakthrough in electrically powered ground vehicles occurred in Europe in the year 2041 with the development of so-called "induction wheels." This groundbreaking tech amplified the charging rate of electric engines, making them almost completely self-powering. Now, most cars operating within the limits of larger European cities use induction-wheel technology.

随着所谓的“感应轮”的发展,电动地面车辆在2041年在欧洲取得了重大突破。这一突破性的技术提高了电动引擎的充电速度,使它们几乎可以完全自主充电。现在,大多数在欧洲大城市行驶的汽车都使用感应轮技术。

 

In America, after years of research, Biotechnica scientists developed a new strain of Triticum vulgaris megasuavis that was immune to a cropeating biovirus. This achievement boosted the country’s economy and allowed vehicle production to resume without costly reconfiguration to other technical solutions. The automotive industry began to recover after years of stag-nation, and was soon moving rapidly forward. A new era had begun.

在美国,经过多年的研究,生物技术公司的科学家开发出了一种新的小麦品种,这种小麦对一种种植生物病毒具有免疫力。这一成就促进了该国的经济,并使汽车生产得以恢复,而无需进行成本高昂的重新配置,采用其他技术解决方案。汽车工业在多年停滞之后开始复苏,并很快迅速向前发展。一个新时代开始了。

 

Auto manufacturers began to develop new models of aerodynes in response to decreasing CHOOH2 prices 3nd worsening street traffic. Today AV technology is quite popular; although in private hands it's a sign of luxury reserved mostly for corporates and upper-class citizens. AVs are used on a larger scale by police, military, and corporate forces and by transport companies. Transportation of goods within the city has shifted into aviation routes, which helps to decongest overcrowded street traffic.

为了应对不断下降的汽车价格和日益恶化的交通状况,汽车制造商开始开发新型的飞行器。虽然飞行器在私人手中,这是一种奢侈的标志;但是在企业和上层阶级公民那里,飞行器技术则相当的普遍。飞行器被警察、军队、企业部队和运输公司大规模使用。市内的货物运输已经转向航空航线,这有助于缓解过度拥挤的街道交通。

CHOOH2

The fossil fuel crisis of the late 1986s necessitated the search for alternative combustible fuel sources. A major breakthrough occurred in 1993r when Biotechnica developed CHOOH2, a synthetic alcohol that became the world's standard combustible fuel for the next thirty years. CHOOH2 is a synthetic, modified grain-based alcohol, made of a genetically created high-sugar wheat called Triticum vulgaris megasuavis. In the 1990, Biotechnica was a relatively small corporation that couldn't farm its wheat in quantities large enough to make the new fuel profitable; so it licensed the rights to its formula to several petrochemical companies—the largest two being Petrochem Betterlife and SovOil. CHOOH2 burns much cleaner than gasoline and diesel, but the fuel itself is toxic. Like some other alcohols, metabolites in CHOOH2 can cause poisoning, blindness, and death at higher doses.

1986年末的化石燃料危机,迫使人们不得不去寻找可替代的可燃燃料。1993年,生物技术公司取得了重大突破,研发出了CHOOH2,这种合成酒精在接下来的30年里成为了世界标准的可燃燃料。CHOOH2是一种合成的、经过改良的谷物酒精,由一种名为megasuavis的转基因高糖小麦制成。在二十世纪九十年代,Biotechnica还是一家相对较小的公司,因为无法大量种植小麦以使这种新燃料有利可图,所以它将其配方授权给了几家石化公司——其中最大的两家是Petrochem Betterlife和SovOil。CHOOH2燃烧起来比汽油和柴油清洁得多,但是燃料本身是有毒的。像其他一些酒精一样,CHOOH2中的代谢物在高剂量时可以导致中毒、失明和死亡。

 

The shift from petrofuels to CHOOH2 primarily occurred between 2010 and 2020. During the Fourth Corporate War, between 2023 and 2025, huge swaths of Triticum vulgaris megasuavis crops were attacked and destroyed by a bioengineered virus, resulting in the worst fuel crisis of this century.

从石油燃料到CHOOH2燃料的转变主要发生在2010年到2020年之间。在第四次公司战争期间,即2023年至2025年,一种生物工程病毒袭击并摧毁了大面积的小麦作物,导致本世纪最严重的燃料危机。

Editor’s Note

编者按

 

During his research for this section, Josh made contracts with individuals who would prefer to remain anonymous. Those contact also provided some fascinating material that chronicles the history of the Net. Our special thanks go out to the netrunner who contacted Josh by hacking into his account and leaving behind some unique data-some of which was thought to be lost during the fall of the Old Net. Thanks, choomba, whoever you are!

在研究这个部分的过程中,Josh与那些不愿透露姓名的人签订了合同。这些联系人也提供了一些有趣的材料,记录着网络的历史。我们特别感谢通过入侵Josh的账户与他取得联系,并留下一些独特的数据的网络黑客——其中一些数据被认为在旧网络崩溃期间丢失了。谢谢,乔巴,不管你是谁!

 

We would also like to thank Nix from Afterlife for shedding some light on the matter of netrunning gear.

我们也要感谢来自来生俱乐部的尼克斯,为新装备的开发提供了一些启示。

 

Before the Fourth Corporate War, the Net was a vast global network capable of transmitting and storing ail kinds of data, from unprotected public files to the most heavily encrypted corporate secrets. To interact with that data, you had to access the Net. You could have done this the old-fashioned way with a terminal or computer, or the quicker and more effective way by using a cybermodem and its interface. A cybermodem was the way to experience the Net in all three dimensions-some even claim four dimensions, because time was also a factor since the user could interact with data much faster than with a traditional connection.

在第四次公司战争之前,网络是一个巨大的全球网络,能够传输和存储各种数据,从不受保护的公共文件到高度加密的企业机密。为了与这些数据进行交互,你必须访问网络。你可以用老式的方式通过终端或计算机来完成,也可以用更快更有效的方式通过网络调制解调器及其接口来完成。网络调制解调器是一种体验三维网络的方式——有些人甚至声称是四维网络,因为时间也是一个因素,因为用户可以比传统连接更快地与数据交互。

 

In 2077 the global Net is no more-at least not as a global communications platform. It was destroyed by corporate attacks, rogue ISs, and the parting gift of one dead man.

到2077年,全球网络将不复存在——至少不再是一个全球交流平台。它被大公司的攻击,流氓国际空间站,和一个死去的人的离别礼物所摧毁。
