Black tech predators

Chapter 171 [Information]

After 10 minutes, Gu Cheng asked Xiaoqing to open another folder, which contained a briefing material.

"X-B185 all-terrain combat vehicle? Is it the so-called Kite Project?" After reading the briefing materials, Gu Cheng turned to He Su and asked He Su. What surprised him was that he was able to obtain such detailed information. There are several brushes.

He Su nodded: "According to intelligence data, the 'Kite Project' has been shelved for many years and was almost killed, but the appearance of a key person not only brought the 'Kite Project' back to life, but also successfully gave birth to the X-B185 chariot."

Gu Cheng casually asked, "Who?"

He Su replied: "Vera Lopez, known as the youngest technological star in North America, a super genius, is currently working as the chief scientist of the high-energy weapons research project at Lockheed Martin."

Hearing this, Gu Cheng gradually found some pictures of the Zhu Hai Air Show in his vague memory. After a while, a scene became clearer and clearer in his mind, and a beautiful face appeared in his mind.

Gu Cheng suddenly realized: "So it's her."

He Su heard him muttering to himself, and couldn't help looking at him with surprise: "What? You know this young genius scientist from North America?"

"It's not so much acquaintance. During the air show, I happened to see her come to my exhibition area to visit the superconducting battery energy storage device." Gu Chengdao didn't hide it, and briefly talked about the situation at that time.

Frankly speaking, Gu Cheng really wanted to get to know this beautiful American girl with outstanding temperament. It would be even better if he could get to know her better. Well, after she mentioned it like this, Gu Cheng felt quite sorry for not being able to tease Vera's sister.

He Su withdrew his gaze and said thoughtfully: "Vera Lopez, this woman is not simple, she is younger than you, and has been recognized as the youngest and highest-level fundamental physicist by North American academic circles, Huo Su The youngest tenured professor at Pukins University has now received a doctorate in mathematics, quantum physics and chemistry. The doctorate in chemistry is an achievement she obtained while working for Lockheed Martin. She is now studying for a master's degree in materials science. It’s really hard to say how many doctorates I can get now…”

What she said made Gu Cheng feel a little bit pained, and he glanced at her: "So...?"

Seeing his displeased expression, He Su thought for a while, and seemed to understand why, smiled leisurely, and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, don't get me wrong, it's just a case-by-case discussion, not specifically aimed at The thing about you dropping out of school and not getting any degree."

"..."

It’s okay if you don’t explain it, but Gu Cheng was even more depressed when she explained it. He Su added with a smile: “Even if you don’t have any degree, you are still the youngest and most potential super genius in China.”

Looking at Gu Cheng again, he gave him a deep comment: "There is a saying that the space hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union lasted for 30 years in the last century, in the final analysis, is actually just a competition between two people, two geniuses, one named Weiner. Von Braun, a German; a Sergey Krolev, a Russian."

After hearing this, Gu Cheng stared at her in surprise, He Su felt a little thirsty, so she picked up the glass and drank the last half glass of water, Gu Cheng glanced at the empty glass, got up and went to the water dispenser to make another glass for her .

At this moment, He Su looked at Gu Cheng who was walking towards her and said: "During the Cold War after World War II, the United States and the Soviet Union conducted an all-round arms race for more than [-] years, from nuclear bombs to missiles to space. ... They are all super money-burning games. Among them, Space Hegemony is the most exciting part. From another perspective and from a higher perspective, it is the battle between the two that sends humans into space and brings Going to the moon laid the initial foundation for the future colonization of Mars, and even breaking out of the solar system to enter the era of great space exploration.”

"Although this space race was launched for military purposes, it has brought great progress to all mankind. It is hard to imagine that such a super competition between two superpowers actually only exists between two geniuses, In the end, the limits of human beings have been expanded, and most of today's technologies are enjoying the dividends left by this competition, and Internet technology is a typical representative."

Speaking of this, He Su drank his saliva again, and continued to tell with a leisurely sigh: "It's a pity that there is no holiday, just when this space race is entering a hot stage, in 1966, 59-year-old Krolev passed away. , the Soviets realized later, even in terms of what his death meant to space exploration for all of humanity, it was the end of an era."

"In December 1968, von Braun's Apollo 12 was launched, manned successfully orbited the moon, and returned to the earth. For the moon landing, North America is already determined to win. But the Soviet Union is eager to go one step ahead, they replaced the scientist Vasily Misin directed Krolev's work and launched a rocket with a lunar module into space in February 8, but ... failed, and the Soviet Union was announced to have withdrawn from the space race."

"Actually, the space race was over from the moment Krolev died, and the result was that the Americans finally succeeded in landing on the moon and won the race. With the successive fall of the two geniuses, This wonderful competition has also come to an end, and no one who succeeds can continue to participate in the process of catalyzing it."

After listening to her story, Gu Cheng crossed his legs and looked at He Su with a smile and said, "Suddenly saying this, don't you mean to tell me to compare Vera Lopez and me to Xie Su?" Serge Krolev and Wiener von Braun?"

"That's right!" He Su nodded and admitted frankly. She looked straight into Gu Cheng's eyes and said, "Between Sergey Krolev and Wiener von Braun, maybe they don't care about the difference between the Soviet Union and the United States. They are the competition of two scientists. When one achieves 1, the other wants to achieve 2, 3, and thus beat the other. Sergey Krolev puts a man in space, Wiener Von Braun put a man on the moon."

Gu Cheng was noncommittal. At this time, He Su took the initiative to look away, and his eyes wandered elsewhere: "Whether you admit it or not in the current situation, you have to accept that my country and North America have already started a technological war in the high-tech field. The depth and breadth are far beyond the space race of the last century. The competition between the Americans and the Soviets in the last century was mostly in the military field, but the competition between us and the Americans in this century is a military-civilian competition. the whole field."

"At the same time, two geniuses were born. Perhaps this is God's preference for mankind, a gift given to mankind, and history always has amazing similarities. Vera Lopez is an American, and you are Hua. Chinese, and the countries where the two sides are located are just one of the most powerful countries in our time." Having said this, He Su looked at Gu Cheng again.

It is true that there is great power in numbers, and quantitative changes can also lead to qualitative changes, but in the field of science, especially transformative scientific progress, throughout history, it has been promoted by a very small number of geniuses.
