Chapter 830: Give Wings to Geniuses (First Update, Please Subscribe)
Employ people scientifically.

Naturally, we must scientifically apply talents to areas where they are urgently needed.

What kind of talents is Nanyang urgently in need of now?
Chemistry, biology, mathematics, physics, materials, mechanics, computers, aviation, aerospace...

It can be said that all walks of life need it. After all, science is a systematic project, and no one industry can lag behind.

Just like although Nanyang now has computers, it is still a long way from the Internet. If you want the Internet, you still need to solve the problem of optical fiber, and optical fiber needs to solve a series of problems such as lasers. Only when these problems are solved can you solve the problem of going online. In fact, there are still countless problems to be solved in the middle. Science is a systematic project. It does not mean that you can get the entire system by breaking through a key node.

In fact, science is a theory of short boards, and the level of science is always determined by the shortest board in the bucket.

In short, what Nanyang needs now are talents from various industries. After all, Nanyang wants to use its own strength to advance the technological level of small broken balls and change the destiny of mankind.

Of course, the main thing is to change Nanyang itself.

In fact, by changing Nanyang itself, it is also changing the entire world.

Just like why Watt, Edison, Ford and others can be written into history books, and why many people admire Bill Gates and Joe Biden.

It's because their companies and products have changed the world and made human life better, it's that simple.

Just like people rarely like Rockefeller, Buffett and Li Ka-shing, because although they are very successful in business, they are just businessmen and their companies do not improve the lives of ordinary people.

What kind of role should Nanyang play in the future?

Just like Watt and Edison in history books, when people mention Nanyang, they will exclaim "Wow" in surprise, and then list the changes that Nanyang has brought to mankind.

It is difficult to achieve this goal, after all, science involves many disciplines.

But we can completely treat the symptoms rather than the root cause, and select some key areas and make breakthroughs in them.

This is a bit like the Soviet Union's "key research system".

If you just catch a sheep and pull it hard, you may not be able to get a woolen sweater.

But would it be difficult to catch a group of sheep and pull out a woolen sweater?

If it is difficult, it means there are not enough sheep. That means more sheep are needed!
Don’t I know how to make use of the advantages of the system?
Isn’t King’s Laboratory a ready-made institution?
From now on, I will get a few technical books that are ahead of the times from the system every day, and stuff the "smuggled" technology into the King's Laboratory. The quality of talents is not very important to me. Instead, the quantity of talents is more important.

If 100 people work on one direction, the quantitative change is enough to cause qualitative change.

If I handle it well, I will not only have "one hundred thousand troops", but I will also most likely have "one hundred thousand scientists"?
These scientists are not necessarily geniuses, but the role they need to play is pioneers in certain fields.

Or they are Prometheus, bringing fire to the world, and finally promoting the rise of genius through those fires.

Hey!
As smart as I am, I can be so terrifying!
Use Prometheus to illuminate genius.

Isn't it just about using talents to inspire geniuses?
In other words, it is to use talents to act as boosters of genius.

If we calculate the time, Einstein was almost gone. Among scientists, he was considered long-lived. He died at the age of 76. But from which period did his scientific research results mainly come?
It should be said that it was before the 30s.

Throughout Einstein's life, most of his achievements occurred when he was young. Don't be skeptical, in fact, most scientists are like this, they all completed most of their life achievements when they were young.

Because the human brain ages, the corresponding perception, memory, calculation speed, reasoning ability, etc. will continue to decline with age. This physiological phenomenon is called "fluid intelligence."

A person's fluid intelligence reaches its peak at around the age of 20, reaches its peak at the age of 25, and then slowly declines after the age of 25, so the older you are, the lower your fluid intelligence.

Einstein had a sudden epiphany at the age of 25, and then published the theory of relativity, photoelectric effect, mass-energy equation, etc. at the age of 26.

Newton established calculus, optics, mechanics, astronomy, etc. at the age of 23.

Heisenberg proposed the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics at the age of 26. Yang Zhenning proposed the non-conservation of parity at the age of 28 and won the Nobel Prize a few years later.

It can be seen that scientific research places more emphasis on fluid intelligence. After a certain number of years, the comprehensive indicators of scientists are not sufficient to support innovation in scientific research.

20-30 years old, this age happens to be the age when it is easiest to achieve results!

And many times, what is the biggest regret in the life of many scientists?
That is, after they put forward their own theories, they are limited by the decline of their fluid intelligence, which causes them to be unable to further improve their theories or conduct further research on their theories for the rest of their lives, thus achieving a step-by-step leap forward.

Human history has long proved one thing—geniuses are limited, and the vast majority of people are mediocre.

However, human technological progress is inseparable from the flashes of inspiration of geniuses. Geniuses have stronger talents, stronger observation, calculation and discovery abilities... Therefore, they have more chances to trigger 1% of the flashes of inspiration.

But geniuses are always few and far between, and their age is limited. Even their bodies are limited. As a result, the discovery of geniuses is directly led by a group of mediocre people who continue to develop.

"If Hawking had studied the black hole evaporation theory and the unbounded Hawking universe model when he was 25 years old, what kind of changes would it bring to quantum mechanics?"

After this thought popped up in Li Yian's mind, he suddenly became a little out of control, because he saw a brand new future, a future... full of infinite possibilities.

"Yes, yes, that's it, that's it..."

Li Yian paced back and forth excitedly. What he saw was a completely new and unpredictable future.

Perhaps after a genius's flash of inspiration is taken away, the genius may be buried, but this is only a possibility.

And there is another possibility - when geniuses stand on the shoulders of geniuses, what they can achieve is destined to be amazing!

Science itself is a progressive development. Every step forward is the result of countless people's accumulation. Generations of scientists conduct research based on the work of their predecessors, then overturn their predecessors' research, and then move forward and develop again.

In this case, if we provide those geniuses with a stepping stone and lead them to advance in the fields they have created, they will surely achieve greater success.

"At least a considerable number of them can achieve higher achievements!"

Li Yian emphasized again.

"Even if it's just a part of it!"

Thinking this in his heart, Li Yian has even begun to ponder whether or not to plagiarize Hawking's theory. Although he has activated his physics skills, he finds that he only has a superficial understanding of Hawking's theory.

"This is a bit difficult..."

Although it was a bit difficult, Li Yian changed his mind and said.

"Although it's a little difficult, you can come up with an idea, a concept, and then let others understand and think about it. Didn't Einstein also think about it for more than ten years?"

How old is Hawking now?

Teenagers, maybe!

Why Hawking?

Because Hawking happened to reach the peak of his life in the farthest future he could reach!
Is it a coincidence?

Fate... is sometimes really strange.

Let him comprehend and think together with other physicists. Maybe in a dozen years, he will be able to conduct further research based on the achievements of other physicists. At that time, he should be in his 20s. What kind of achievements will he have made by then?

Let's leave this question to time!
Although he thought so in his heart, Li Yian's WeChat was also full of expectations, expecting the genius to grow by standing on his shoulders.
