Chapter 739 Technology Exhibition
"Science and technology exhibition? What kind of exhibition is it?"

Wu Qian asked.

His concept of science and technology exhibitions stayed in the science and technology museum for teenagers that the school organized for them to visit in junior high school. In the science and technology museum, the young Wu Qian saw many concrete scientific phenomena, which opened his eyes.

But if it is still this type of science and technology exhibition, it will not be very attractive to Wu Qian today.

Dwayne Johnson said: "This science and technology exhibition is relatively large-scale in recent years. There will be many high-tech companies and famous university research teams displaying their scientific research results. If you are interested, you can invest."

According to Dwayne Johnson, this is a technology product exhibition, where scientific research teams and technology companies showcase their achievements, and then attract sponsorship and investment. Investors can choose to continue research and development or directly put into production according to the actual situation.

After listening to Dawn's words, Wu Qian immediately became interested and said, "OK, let's go and have a look."

The two made an appointment to meet at the convention and exhibition center, and they left as soon as they said they would. Wu Qian, who was used to going up and down, chose to travel by helicopter.

Javits Convention Center is located on West 34th Street in Manhattan, New York's most prosperous district. It was built in 1986 and is the largest convention and exhibition center in New York, with a total area of ​​70 square meters. More than [-] conference rooms.

If you are a person who has lived in New York for a long time, you have to go to the Javits Convention Center several times a year, because it is the busiest convention center in the United States, whether it is an auto show, an animation exhibition, or luxury jewelry. Exhibitions or wine, chemical, fashion, etc., etc., will compete to be held here.

The schedule of the Javits Convention and Exhibition Center is very tight. If you want to hold an exhibition here, you may need to queue up several months or even a year in advance, and the cost is very high.

In order to maintain the leading level of the Javits Convention and Exhibition Center in the world, the Javits Convention and Exhibition Center recently expanded it at a cost of one billion US dollars, increasing the usable area and adding many functional halls.

After the expansion, the profitability of the convention and exhibition center has been greatly improved. Just by hosting various conventions and exhibitions, the annual revenue has reached 22 billion US dollars.

The profits created by exhibitors for the exhibition center are only the tip of the iceberg, and the transactions generated through participation in the exhibition are even more impressive. The reason why exhibitors travel thousands of miles to exhibit here is because of the reputation of this exhibition hall in the industry.

If you use ground transportation, you will definitely be stuck in traffic from Long Island to the Javits Convention Center, but there is no such trouble when flying from the air.

Not long after, the H215 sailed over the Javits Convention and Exhibition Center. Without anyone's intentional reminder, Wu Qian had already discovered the unique and exquisite building through the porthole.

The post-modern style building, the main body is covered by neatly cut glass, which has a great sense of design and visual impact, and is very dazzling under the sunlight.

However, Wu Qian felt that he had seen this design style before. He thought about it a little, and remembered that the glass pyramid in front of the Louvre Museum and the convention center below seemed to have the same effect.

"Rosalind, what does this exhibition center have to do with the Louvre?" Wu Qian asked.

Rosalind was observing the situation on the ground, and when she heard the boss's culture, she said, "Boss, the exhibition center has nothing to do with the Louvre, but the glass pyramid in front of the Louvre and the designer of the Javits Exhibition Center are The same person, both from the pen of the Chinese designer Bei."

Having said that, Wu Qian understood, the very distinctive personal design style, so that he can see the obvious label even if he doesn't understand architecture at all.

The helicopter flew towards the helipad next to the Javits Convention Center. Not too many people use helicopters in New York, but there are still many, so many high-end buildings will consider the issue of helicopter takeoff and landing.

After getting off the helicopter and walking to the southeast gate of the exhibition center, Wu Qian saw that Dwayne Johnson had already arrived. The bald and strong man in a dark silver suit looked like a gentleman.

"Johnson, long time no see."

Wu Qian walked towards Dwayne Johnson with open arms.

Although the two had only met each other in the capital and had worked together twice, due to some similar hobbies and personalities, the two hit it off very well.

The two bodyguards who followed Johnson were the two who met in Tianchao back then, the two guys who almost made An Xin cry in the Orphanage at the New Beginning of Life, and they also fought very enthusiastically with Wu Qian and his party hello.

After a simple hug, Johnson took David's place, put his arm around Wu Qian's shoulder, and said, "Wu, get your wallet ready, I have a hunch that you might not be able to resist 'buying, buying, buying' today. "

Dawn said the three words "buy, buy, buy" in Chinese, and the inaccurate pronunciation made me very happy.

Wu Qian shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Of course I want to buy something good, but I'm afraid there is nothing worth buying, and that would be boring. By the way, when did you become interested in these high-tech things?"

Dawn let go of his arm and stretched out his right hand, revealing a watch.

"Look, this is a product of a technology company I invested in before. Come on, Wu, let me show you the functions. Pay attention, this is not an ordinary smart watch."

While talking, Dwayne Johnson began to fiddle with his smart watch as if offering a treasure.

There is a button on the side of the traditional dial. Dawn presses it lightly, and the dial lights up a mini oled display, which can display a lot of information on the small display.

Wu Qian has heard of many smart watches on the market, but he has never thought of buying one, because he is only loyal to pure machinery in the field of watches, but he has also learned about them.

"Dawn, your watch is nothing special. I've seen some products that can also display information such as step count and heartbeat..."

Wu Qian hit Dwayne Johnson mercilessly.

Dawn made a waiting expression, and said: "Wu, don't worry, if I'm just that level, how can I invest in it, you see, it can not only detect heartbeat, but also detect atrial fibrillation and irregular heart rhythm."

"It will record data such as electrocardiogram data, vascular hypoxia levels, calories, etc., and when it is connected to the supporting application, it can manage and archive these data. I can give these data to doctors and fitness trainers to let them know more about my health. How is your health, isn't it good?"

"These functions are only part of it. More importantly, it is highly accurate and waterproof. I really love this product."

It can be seen that Dawn likes this smart watch very much.

"It looks pretty good. Has this product been put into production?"

Wu Qian asked.

"It was launched a month ago. Such an excellent product only sells for $290. Wu, would you like a piece?" Dwayne Johnson asked humorously.

Wu Qian shook the watch jointly made by Breitling and Rolls-Royce, and said with a smile: "I have a superhuman body, and I don't need to consider health issues at all, so I still choose a mechanical watch."

"Haha, Wu, you are too humorous. I know you dislike the low-grade smart watch, but you are still young and have a healthy body, so you really don't need real-time monitoring. Let's see what's new in this exhibition Toy."

Dwayne Johnson thinks that Wu Qian thinks the smart watch is too low-grade, but it is indeed not high-grade, [-] dollars, if he has not invested in this technology company, he will not wear it.

But he didn't know that what Wu Qian said was the truth...

The main reason why Wu Qian is unwilling to wear this kind of smart watch is not because his health status does not need to be monitored, but mainly because he is worried that the smart watch will not only monitor his health status, but also monitor all his other conditions!
He wasn't doubting Dwayne Johnson, he just thought of the pervasive ability of CIA investigators, so he had to be vigilant. Electronic devices with microcomputers were far less reassuring than ancient mechanical devices.

Today is the professional day of the science and technology exhibition, which is a higher level of authority than the media day. The media day is actually very messy, because the media card is really worthless, just like when Wu Qian visited the Beijing Auto Show, some media wanted to take pictures of him. LFA, scrambling to send media passes to him.

The situation in New York is even more extreme. On media days, there will be people selling media credentials at a place far from the entrance, with clearly marked prices...

Professional Day means that only those who are invited can participate in the exhibition. There are no idlers, no media or very few people. Those who can come today are successful people who have achieved certain achievements in certain fields. purposeful.

Just as Wu Qian and Dwayne Johnson walked into the exhibition center through the southeast gate, a group of people also entered the northeast gate. It was Bloomberg who was listening to a musical in Newark, New Jersey last night.

As a presidential candidate, Bloomberg keeps his spirits up every day. His main purpose of coming here today is to participate in the high-tech field and let friends in this field know him. At the same time, he also brought a small media team to his personal Take some shots.

The place where Wu Qian and Dwayne Johnson met belonged to the outer door of the exhibition hall. When they entered the inner door, they felt different instantly.

Of course, the exhibitors also know that today is a special day, and it is their best opportunity to solicit sponsorship. By the time of media day and public day, there will be almost no donors coming.

Therefore, the exhibitors in each booth are trying their best to display their products.

Walking into the exhibition hall on the first floor, Wu Qian suddenly felt that he had entered a sci-fi world. Aircraft, various robots with strange shapes, and incomprehensible posters were all very attractive.

Although there is no detailed understanding, Wu Qian can already imagine that today will be a very interesting day, where he should be able to learn about some of the most cutting-edge technologies and trends.

Wu Qian and his group walked to the booth closest to the door. A beautiful woman in uniform in the booth walked up to everyone holding a gothic "heart" and dedicated the heart to Dwayne Johnson.

"Mr. Johnson, please accept my heart."

The beauty "confessed" to Dwayne Johnson unabashedly, apparently recognizing him.

Johnson has become accustomed to these behaviors, he took the gorgeous heart with a smile, and said with a smile: "Hey, what do you do here? Um...why is there a smell of chocolate? Oh..."

Dwayne Johnson found the "heart" he had received from the beauty in uniform showing signs of melting in his hand.

"Mr. Dawn, this heart is printed out of chocolate materials. Our company's 3D printing technology can use a variety of ingredients for printing. Do you know, gentlemen?"

As one of the important roles in the era of Industry 3, 4.0D printing technology has now made more people aware of this technology, but this technology is not perfect, especially in terms of materials, but it is undeniable that 3D printing technology has become today An important technology indispensable to industry.

"Oh wait, no wonder you're wearing gloves, bring a saucer, your heart is going to melt..."

Johnson was a little embarrassed by the sudden chocolate heart.

Wu Qian spread his hands with a smile. He still couldn't understand this kind of American humor, so he started to visit the contents of the exhibition hall.

This company specializing in 3D printing of food materials is very interesting. It can be seen that the boss is a person with sentiments. He used various materials to print out many classic characters in cartoons and games. The glass showcases in the exhibition hall are full of Another kind of figure.

The company positions food 3D printing technology in the production of special gifts.

Although it was very interesting, Wu Qian and his party did not stay for too long. After eating two chocolate hearts, they left.

The people at the next booth seemed to be waiting impatiently. When Wu Qian and his party appeared in front of the booth, a person who should be the management of the company jumped out of the booth.

"Johnson, I want to fight you one-on-one, dare to take a punch from me!"

The bespectacled man in his 40s has a defiant look on his face, but none of that is as attractive as his right arm.

His right hand is covered in complex machinery, fully armed from fingers to shoulder.

Seeing the honor of the other party, Wu Qian flicked his mouth. This is the real version of the unicorn arm.

Dwayne Johnson raised his hand to his forehead and said, "Dude, I just ate a chocolate heart. What are you going to show me? If it's food, forget it. What can your thick mechanical arm do?"

Seeing that the other party had stopped, the middle-aged man quickly waved his mechanical arm and made a creaking sound. Two staff members in the booth brought out a metal iron pot together, and another person was holding a mat. Follow along.

噔......

The iron kettle landed on the mat and made a dull sound, showing its weight.

I saw the middle-aged man smiled at Wu Qian and his group, then he moved his "unicorn arm" to hold the handle of the iron pot, lifted it lightly, and with a whistling sound, the heavy iron pot was lifted up by him with the sound of wind .

It can be seen that the device installed on his right arm can provide him with extremely powerful strength, similar to an exoskeleton exoskeleton, which can help him lift tens of kilograms of weight in an instant, but unfortunately...

His arms are strong, but his waist and legs are not strong enough. Just as he lifted the iron pot, he saw that his body was about to fall from the crooked position.
