You say you have an iron will, are you serious?

Chapter 517 Should we find another way out?

America, Santa Barbara.

“Google achieves quantum supremacy: its significance is comparable to the invention of airplanes by humans!”

"Google published an important research paper in the journal Nature, announcing a major breakthrough in the field of quantum computing and officially achieving quantum supremacy... The quantum processor it developed can complete calculations in 200 seconds, which is required by the fastest supercomputers For ten thousand years..."

"From research and development to application: the whole process of quantum technology track!"

"Quantum supremacy milestone!"

……

On this day, Jason Yang was happy, but also showed regret on his face when he saw that Google's paper "Achieve Quantum Supremacy Using Programmable Superconducting Processors" successfully published in "Nature" caused huge repercussions around the world. His expression was more regretful.

He is naturally happy about Google's achievements, which are actually also the achievements of the University of Santa Barbara under his leadership.

As for regrets, there are many.

One is the response. This time, the public response to "quantum supremacy" seems to be more on financial and social news, and much less on technology and professional news. What this phenomenon represents is self-evident.

There is no doubt that professionals are not interested in this so-called "quantum supremacy" and have adopted a cold approach.

In addition, there seemed to be little response from China. Academician Pan, whom he had called several times before, was indifferent and still refused his invitation.

He admires the research achievements of Academician Pan and the team he leads in "quantum communication and computing". The University of Santa Barbara, Google, etc. also admire them and eagerly hope that he can come over.

If I don’t come now, I will naturally be full of regrets.

"What a pity~"

Jason Yang then felt a sense of regret. It was a pity that Academician Pan had made the wrong choice, because he did not think that Academician Pan in China could defeat Google, NASA and their collaboration at the University of Santa Barbara in "quantum" research.

On the same day, Jason Yang and the people in the quantum team reported the results of inviting Academician Pan.

The team members basically had the same idea as him. It was a pity that Academician Pan could not come, and then they regretted that Academician Pan made the wrong choice.

"In the field of quantum computing, we are the absolute leader!"

"That's right!"

"Forget it if he doesn't come, it will be his loss. When we achieve quantum hegemony, we will surely lead again in the field of artificial intelligence!"

"What a pity, I still want to compete with him face to face!"

……

Everyone spoke one after another, with confident expressions in their words.

Jason Yang is very satisfied with the confidence of the entire team.

As researchers, how can we explore the future if we are not confident?
Especially for researchers in the "quantum" field, this is a no-man's land and a blank area all over the world, and no one knows how to take the road ahead. If you don’t have confidence, you won’t be able to go on, and naturally you won’t be able to lead the world.

Especially since they are all Americans, top scientific researchers from the only superpower country in the world!

The next day, Jason Yang drove from home to school as usual.

The sun is shining brightly and the warm breeze is blowing.

Jason Yang's mood was not as comfortable and beautiful as the weather, he was still full of worries.

As the president of the University of Santa Barbara, a Chinese-American, his inner self has nothing to do with his outer appearance. He is an American through and through. He only thinks about one thing, and that is how to To do a good job at the University of Santa Barbara, in addition to cooperating with America to do a good job in science and technology.

At present, except for controllable nuclear fusion and aerospace, where America is lagging behind and no longer number one in the world, many other fields are still not as strong as usual. Therefore, America's pressure has been in these two aspects in the past two years.

America's pressure is the pressure of Santa Barbara University, and naturally it is also his pressure.

And of course, there's an artificial intelligence!
However, Jason Yang does not think that America and the like are too far behind China in artificial intelligence. In addition, their "quantum supremacy" is gradually taking shape, so his pressure is not the greatest.

The most stressful thing is controllable nuclear fusion!
Seeing that China is building controllable nuclear fusion reactors on a large scale, and even exporting them to other countries, shaking the entire world system, America still does not see the way forward, and everyone is under increasing pressure. . Even if many universities form an alliance of "Controllable Nuclear Fusion Research Center" to study together, they are still at a loss.

As the principal, Jason Yang is naturally under great pressure.

After arriving at the school, Jason Yang got out of the car and walked towards his office.

On the way, people kept greeting him, including students and teachers. He also greeted these people with a warm smile.

The long-term America-like smile changed the shape of the muscles on his face. He no longer had the peaceful temperament of a normal Chinese person, but turned into a very exaggerated and fake appearance.

As soon as he reached the bottom of the office building and before he entered, his assistant suddenly ran out in a hurry and ran to him panting.

"Principal, big news, China has created room-temperature superconducting materials!" Before he could react, his assistant reported to him a shocking event with a look of panic on his face!
"what?"

Jason Yang frowned and looked at the other party in disbelief.

He is old, and his brain is indeed not as powerful as when he was young, but when he heard the word "room temperature superconducting", he still immediately thought of what it was. Was this thing created?

"Yes, principal, the news reported by Huaxia~"

The assistant said with a wry smile. Seeing that he didn't believe it, he quickly added: "It was researched by Huaxia Zhao!"

Yang Jason was stunned: "...Oh my God!"

He couldn't help but shout America's catchphrase "God", because "room temperature superconducting material" is indeed incredible, and it is indeed unlikely to be developed at this time, but that person is "Huaxia Zhao"!
Hua Xia Zhao, a scientist who has become synonymous with "magic"!

Therefore, when the amazing scientist "Hua Xia Zhao" developed room temperature superconducting materials, his subconscious reaction was to choose to believe it, just like "Hua Xia Zhao" created the world's first controllable nuclear fusion reactor. At that time, controllable nuclear fusion reactors, like room temperature superconducting materials, were both considered to be "black technologies" that could not be developed now and belonged to the next hundred years.

Gudong!

Jason Yang swallowed and quickly asked the other party to show him the news.

The assistant hurriedly took out his Apple tablet, searched for relevant news videos, and clicked to play.

"...Professor Zhao Mo led his team to make major breakthroughs in the field of superconductivity. Through theoretical and material innovation, they achieved superconductivity of graphene materials at normal temperatures and pressures..."

Looking at the classic scenes from China and listening to the other party's Chinese broadcast of the news, as an elderly Chinese, Jason Yang heard it clearly and clearly.

"Oh, God!"

Yang Jason called upon his Lord again. Only his Lord could calm his emotions a little.

The realization of room temperature superconductivity, even an ordinary person knows its huge significance, which can change the entire world, let alone him, the president of Santa Barbara University?

Afterwards, Jason Yang calmed down and began to check the source of the video.

In today's Internet age, information spreads really fast, but because it's fast, it's also plentiful. In particular, rumors are flying all over the sky, and there's too much information. Whether it's text, pictures, screenshots, or videos, it may all be fake. It has become extremely difficult to obtain real information.

Even the "News Network" video from China might be faked by someone!

But soon, Jason Yang confirmed that the video was authentic, because the video came directly from the official website of China CCTV!

"Now we're in big trouble~"

Jason Yang took a deep breath, returned the tablet to his assistant, and then quickened his pace.

However, just as he reached the office and was about to enter, he suddenly paused because he suddenly remembered the rapid development of China's science and technology over the years, and then he connected these things together and suddenly took a breath of air: "Hey! So it's okay Controlled nuclear fusion, artificial intelligence, aerospace, etc. are they because they use room temperature superconducting materials? Is this why Academician Pan is unwilling to come? "

No wonder controllable nuclear fusion appeared!
No wonder AI surpassed America!

No wonder their aerospace technology has advanced by leaps and bounds!

No wonder Academician Pan was also indifferent after he said that they had realized 18 superconducting qubits!

No wonder China’s scientific and technological field is indifferent to “quantum supremacy”!
……

Case solved!
Everything, so much confusion, was solved at this moment. It turns out that China has already realized room temperature superconducting color materials, and has made revolutionary breakthroughs at the bottom, which is why so many major scientific and technological achievements have emerged!
Yang Jiesen didn't know when "room-temperature superconductivity" was researched by "Huaxia Zhao", but he knew one thing, that is, superconducting materials cannot be dried directly from the liquid nitrogen temperature zone to room temperature in one breath. There must be a process in between, approaching room temperature little by little from the liquid nitrogen temperature zone.

In this process, any breakthrough will have a significant impact on all aspects.

The closer a superconducting material is to room temperature, the more powerful the computers it can make, and the more powerful the superconducting magnets it can make... There is no doubt that these are breakthroughs.

Jason Yang did not push the door open, but turned around and walked quickly towards the "Quantum" team laboratory.

The assistant was startled for a moment and followed him subconsciously.

After a while, the two rushed to the quantum laboratory.

Inside, most of the members are there, and a small number of members are coming one after another.

The people who arrived were the same as those present. Everyone's face was filled with a mixture of solemnity and anxiety, and they no longer had the confidence and ease of yesterday.

"I think we should find another way out?"

After everyone arrived, the team leader sighed and said.

Everyone, including Jason Yang, was stunned: "..."
