The end of technology.

Chapter 189 The Greatest Achievement of the 21st Century

For March's eagerness, Ning Zi didn't express much, but he was very interested in the finished materials that March said.

Speaking of which, he didn't pay much attention to the situation in the laboratory during this period. On the one hand, it was because of his trust in March, and on the other hand, because Ning Zi found that he was not interested in dealing with specific problems in the laboratory. He prefers to stay in his room and think things over.

In March's words, this is a common problem of human beings, and it can be described in one word - lazy!

Its former owner is also like this, always likes to push others to do the experimental work that requires repeated operations.

But Ning Zi did not agree with this statement. He was not lazy, but simply thought that thinking was more interesting than doing it himself.

Of course, there was not much debate on this issue between two species with different thinking modes. It can be understood that on the way to watch the results, two boring minds bickered to pass the time until they saw Ning Zi saw March The macroscopic new material in the mouth.

Then Ning Zi, who had been calm all this time, was really shocked.

Although he didn't pay too much attention to this experiment, each experimental step and which equipment will be used have been engraved in his mind.

Initially, it should start with the most basic microscopic experiments.

This process does not involve the manufacture of specific materials, but only by observing and analyzing microscopic particles, or analyzing the trajectory of particles from many data, and then deducing the existence of the medium space through a series of calculations. The medium space is connected with the microcosm.

This stage is a purely theoretical verification stage.

The next step is to send some microscopic particles to the medium space for exchange. At this time, it will be found that there will be some singular changes in particles with mass, that is, slowons in particle physics.Then, by expanding the scope of the laboratory and starting repeated experiments, until a method is found, macroscopic substances are sent into the medium space and then taken out.

The whole process needs to be repeated many times to find and grasp the coordinates under different kinematic systems in two spaces.

Of course, the macroscopic substances here are not the macroscopic substances that are considered in daily life, but can only be said to be macroscopic substances that are free from the constraints of the laws of quantum physics, such as a tenth of a hair, which is about ten microns.This size is already the limit range that the human naked eye can distinguish, but it still belongs to the macro scene.

Then there is the process of continuous fusion of materials. Through continuous accumulation and fusion of materials, it will take thousands of repeated experiments to finally present a material that is about the size of a Coke bottle cap.

Of course, this is the impression he probably left in his heart after reading the complete test report of another world.

According to the report just in March, there are only 97 complete laboratory records, and the three materials that can be directly observed at a macro level are probably the size of a hair at most in Ning Zi's mind, but what he sees at this time is obviously different.

Because the macro observables in March are really macroscopic enough, the largest piece of observable material is about the size of a B-class car, in the shape of a long hexagon, and some large weights are stacked on the material, just floating in the The sky of the special glass room of the laboratory.

"Meow, this is the largest anti-gravity material synthesized in the laboratory so far. The distance between two vertices is 6.2 meters, the width is 2.3 meters, the thickness is 0.07 meters, and the total mass is -631.23KG. It can provide about 507.78 Newtons of repulsion on the earth. At present, it seems that the material distribution of this anti-gravity material is relatively uniform, which can be tested by moving weights. More specific parameters can be queried in the computer."

The kitten jumped onto the railing of the laboratory, stood there firmly, and introduced it proudly.

Ning Zi looked at the materials in the glass room, unable to speak for a while.

Although he already knew the characteristics of this material, he was still shocked when this thing really appeared in front of his eyes.

Ning Zi didn't know how people in that world felt when they extracted this material from the laboratory for the first time. At this moment, he only felt that his whole body was about to explode.

Although March has described that beautiful future in front of him more than once, the description he heard is not as shocking as what he saw in reality.

Such a huge material floating in the air with the weight adjusted by the mechanical arm will give people a strong sense of impact.

Of course, this kind of impact is not purely visual impact, but an impact on the deep-rooted physical world in my mind.It's like an incredible large-scale magic, the difference is that this time it's in the name of science.

In fact, sometimes it is.

In many cases, science is no different from magic. It is as if the witch's broom in the magic story can fly into the sky and escape from the ground. If technology continues to develop according to the current process, making stick-shaped low-altitude aircraft is not a very troublesome thing.

It's engineers and managers, not scientists, who are really bothered.

Because the former needs to ensure the safety of people when using this product to the greatest extent, and formulate a series of regulations so that people will not kill themselves when using tools, and scientists only need to make this thing Flying into the sky is a success.

At this time, Ning Zi was in such shock that she couldn't speak for a long time.

"Meow... you really don't plan to say something?"

Ning Zi let out a long breath and asked, "This doesn't seem to be the same as what you described before. How did you make such a large piece of material in more than 20 days?"

"Meow, what you have come into contact with is the speed of manufacturing by just discovering the step-by-step scientific research method. After completing the basic experiment, I re-determined the coordinate system according to the previous formula, and then directly used the mass production method.

You must know that the base that used to be controlled by my former master has been able to send more than ten Mars-level exploration ships, dozens of Earth-level and hundreds of moon-level scientific research ships into the sky every year, and conduct various researches in the solar system. A scientific research and civilization construction activities.

From this you can imagine how skilled the production technology of this material is.Mature standards, a mature assembly line, and a mature quality control system. With the assistance of these materials, these devices that can be controlled through the Internet, and a fully automated small workshop, it is actually not too difficult to complete this work. "

Ning Zi nodded, as if she recognized March's answer.

But he also knew that there was nothing difficult in March's little mind.

So Ning Zi continued to ask: "So this piece of material will be displayed at the Astronomical Conference?"

The kitten standing on the railing held its head high, stared at Ning Zi with round eyes, and asked, "Meow, to show off your muscles, of course you have to show your strongest side. Let everyone know that your retreat is not following They were joking."

There is no doubt that this sentence is very reasonable and has a lot of weight.

There is only one problem, Ning Zi finds that every step after that will be more difficult for him to explain.

Hiding a secret in my heart that cannot be told to anyone is actually a heavy burden, especially when I have to work hard to get it right.

Sanyue seemed to see through Ning Zi's thoughts, and moved its small mouth again: "Meow, don't feel pressured. There are complete test records in the computer in the laboratory, and each step has a detailed analysis process, as well as the corresponding Mathematical models, scientifically these reports are extremely rigorous.

It is so rigorous that it is impossible for anyone to pick out any faults from it. At most, they can only sigh with emotion that your luck is too good.Of course, you can fully explain that the so-called good luck is actually based on rigorous scientific analysis and mathematical theory. Others do not have this kind of good luck, maybe it is purely mathematics? "

Ning Zi was amused by March's explanation.

In fact, he wasn't too worried about this, after all Ning Zi was extremely confident in March's rigor.In fact, he was more worried about whether everyone could bear the impact.

This is probably equivalent to the truth of the universe finally revealing the tip of the iceberg.Of course there are benefits, and they are huge.

For example, Ning Zi firmly believes that after the high-end forum on astronomy held in Ningyuan this time, the University will attract at least a few Nobel Prize winners to settle here, and even allow them to accept teaching positions willingly. Taking a few classes is the most basic, and it can even help the University bring out a group of outstanding graduate students.

"call……"

Ning Zi let out a long breath, took another deep look at the new material floating in the glass room, and then said: "Of course, you are right. I will talk to Tim Cook first. Call, and then I have to call a few people to come and take a look... Well, tomorrow, I have to go through the lab reports you mentioned first, so that it can be explained better. Well, let’s do it first. "

"Meow……"

……

Huaxia, Yanbei Sports University, Ning Family Courtyard.

Tim Cook didn't expect that after he flew all the way from the United States to China, he would have to meet and chat with Ning Zi through video.This operation can be described in one word in Huaxia, that is-Sao.It is a pity that there is no English word for such a concise and extremely meaningful word.

For a time, Tim Cook, who was sitting in Ning Zi's study, didn't know what words to use to describe his mood at this time.

After all, he is also the iron-fisted CEO of the world's largest company by market value. No matter where he goes, he will be admired by thousands of people. In the small family of Huaxia, not only do he have to make video calls with people who are only tens of kilometers away, but he is not rich just now. The Chinese vocabulary, and let him understand that the young girl next to him seems to call him "little old man"...

Although the translator said, "Dear Mr. Cook", he could still hear the difference between Cook and the little old man.

Obviously, the whole family didn't respect him very much, and of course the other party also had the confidence to do so.He doesn't want to admit that the sun revolves around a person, but he can't deny it here, especially when he wants something from someone.

Sitting at Ning Zi's desk, he followed Lu Xiaoya's guidance and opened a video communication software on the computer.

This is a software he has never seen before, not WeChat, and the icon is different.

Then click connect, and it didn't take long before the video connection was connected.

After seeing that the connection was successful, Lu Xiaoya, who had a language barrier, greeted Ning Zi, then nodded to Tim Cook, and walked out of the study, leaving him alone to start meeting with Ning Zi.

……

"Hello."

"Hello."

Very simple hello.

No way, Tim Cook, who was in a complicated mood, really didn't think about what kind of opening remarks to use for his conversation with Ning Zi. Fortunately, Ning Zi didn't want to talk nonsense with him, and went straight to the point: "So, you regret it Right? I said earlier that Apple should have accepted my first proposal."

After hearing this, Tim Cook could only smile wryly.

According to his judgment at the time, even with the latest technical support, it would take at least ten to twenty years for Ning Zi's chip research and development center to bypass a series of technical patents and develop high-tech chips. It's a terrible judgment.

No one can say what will happen after such a long time.

Not to mention that Ning Zi can make progress here, and chip R&D companies represented by Intel, AMD, TSMC, and Samsung will also make progress.

He does not see any need to choose to cooperate with a newly built R&D center at a strategic level.

Who would have thought that Ning Zi seemed to be on the hook.

If according to the story on the Internet, Ning Zi first had an idea with the team behind it, and then built the laboratory according to the idea, it means that Ning Zi was very sincere in recruiting Apple to join the team.However, he refused, which is really regrettable.

"Well, it seems that you do regret it. In fact, there is nothing to regret if you really want to say it. Life is like this, and no one can guarantee that every choice is right. Especially in your character, there has always been something that makes you regret it. The idea of ​​maximizing benefits is like the way you allocate global resources.

To be honest, dragging suppliers into Apple's supply chain and continuously increasing orders has made them invest more for a hope. After the additional investment, they have to reduce gross profit to obtain more orders from Apple. , In this way, the price of Apple's global supply chain is guaranteed to be stable or even preferential, and I admire the ability to play with all suppliers in Apple's supply chain in this way. I have always hoped that can learn from you. "

Tim Cook shrugged.

In fact, Apple's global supply chain is a huge and sophisticated system, and the deployment of the supply chain is also a delicate task. Of course, it is not as simple as Ning Zi said.

But he didn't intend to argue with Ning Zi on this topic.

Everyone has something they specialize in, and Tim Cook is well aware of that.

"Ning, I know you are not interested in business methods, so I am very happy that you will have research on Apple's global supply chain, which at least shows that you know something about Apple. But I came to China specifically, obviously It's not to discuss this issue with you. How about we talk about a topic that both parties are interested in?"

"Smart software or chip?" Ning Zi smiled and asked.

"I'm interested in both." Tim Cook also responded with a smile.

Hearing this answer, Ning Zi thought for a moment and said, "Do you want to hear my advice?"

"You said."

"Stay in China for a while, you can walk around and see. I cordially invite you to participate in the World Astronomy High-end Forum held in Ningyuan, Ningyuan, Ningyuan University of Sports in about [-] days. At that time, some things that will interest you more will be displayed Believe me, as long as you participated in that forum, you will definitely feel that this trip to Huaxia is the right one. We can discuss the above two things together at that time."

The suggestion made Tim Cook hesitate.

This means that he will stay in Huaxia for nearly half a month longer.

What's more important is that China and the United States are separated by more than half of the world, more than ten hours apart, which is a very troublesome thing for his work.After all, as the president of Apple, his time is very precious.

But seeing Ning Ziji's confident appearance in the video, he felt that maybe he really shouldn't miss this meeting.

"Well, I know you're busy. But come to think of it, you didn't take my advice last time, and now you regret it. You can't fall twice in the same place, Tim."

Ning Zi emphasized again.

"Can you give me some hints? When I make this decision, I can be more convinced that I am right. For example, what kind of results are you going to show?"

In the video, Ning Zi thought for a while, and then asked very formally and seriously: "How is your basic physics level?"

This question made Tim Cook stunned, then nodded slightly and said: "If it's just basic physics, it should be passable."

After listening to this answer, Ning Zi replied seriously: "That is what can subvert your perception of the world, and is visible to the naked eye, the greatest and impossible to be surpassed in the 21st century-the display of results."

So many attributive modifications made Tim Cook stunned.

But if he misses this grand event, this trip to Huaxia will really be in vain.

To be able to witness the so-called "greatest and unsurpassable achievement of the 21st century" with his own eyes, and to stay in China for half a month longer, Tim Cook thinks it is still acceptable.

"You managed to convince me, Ning, that I will stay until the meeting."

"Correct decision. By the way, do you know? China's Spring Festival will be in ten days. You can still experience the excitement of the Chinese New Year if you stay in China this time. I sincerely invite you to our family banquet on New Year's Eve. "

"Really? Thank you so much."

"You're welcome, oh, by the way, I have a small suggestion, you can learn to eat chili from today. My aunt can't cook without chili. Although we can invite a chef, the tradition of our family is She must cook the New Year's Eve dinner herself."

"OK, all right."

"Then let's talk here for today."

"Ok."

After hanging up the video, Tim Cook was a little dazed.

Heh... It's the first time to celebrate the New Year in China.

……

On the other side, Ning Zi had already taken out the phone, and dialed Zhang Haifeng's number regardless of the night.

Without waiting for the other person to respond, he said to himself: "That's it, I have some achievements here, and I need some experts to evaluate with engineers. Well, how should I put it, because it needs to be kept secret for a while, these experts It’s best to choose one that you can trust. In addition, it’s best to choose one with a stronger heart, so don’t be intimidated.”

"Ok?"
