Expedition to Europe

Chapter 907 Value

The reason why I trust Nikola Tesla is because Nikola Tesla is worth the price.

On the way back to Majuro, Qin Zhiyuan and Nikola Tesla had a very harmonious communication.

In terms of technology, Nikola Tesla is the undisputed "god" of this era. Nikola Tesla has countless fantastic ideas in his mind. Legend has it that Nikola Tesla only needs to imagine a needed thing out of thin air, and then he can turn it into reality.

This sounds like a fairy tale, but for Qin Zhiyuan, nothing is impossible. There is time and space travel, so what else is impossible?

Even if Nikola Tesla said he knew alchemy, Qin Zhiyuan would believe it.

Nikola Tesla is still quite reliable. Qin Zhiyuan only needs to give a little hint for many things, and Nikola Tesla can immediately draw inferences from one example.

"It is not difficult to install the engine on the top of the plane so that it can hover in the air. The only question is whether it is necessary. If the plane loses its maneuverability, it will have to add armor, which will greatly increase the weight of the plane, which requires a more powerful engine - if there is not enough power, it is no problem, we can increase the number of engines. In short, if there is no limit on the volume, it is not difficult to make an air fortress." When it comes to professional fields, Nikola Tesla immediately talked endlessly.

If you just listen to this passage, I am afraid no one would think that Qin Zhiyuan only mentioned the concept of helicopters, and then Nikola Tesla was ready to make an "air fortress". And this is not a simple "air fortress", Nikola Tesla is going to make a combination of tanks and airplanes.

God, even in the 21st century, this seems like a myth!

"Enlarging the shell a hundred times to make a super shell - this is very innovative! If the charge of the propulsion part is increased, the gunpowder is used to generate thrust, and the explosive part is driven forward to fly over the target - this is indeed very possible. The only problem is the amount of charge. If the burning degree of the gunpowder is fixed, then the flight distance can be set, and it is indeed very convenient to use it to attack fixed targets -" This is a conception about missiles.

"Mobile phone? What's the point of this? If people all use mobile phones, will the operators lose their jobs?" This is Nikola Tesla's reaction after hearing about mobile phones.

Scientists, their perspectives on issues are always different from those of ordinary people.

"If mobile phones are widely used, then the operators will definitely lose their jobs, but the scale of telephone factories will expand, and the operators can go to telephone factories to find a new job." Qin Zhiyuan followed Nikola Tesla's meaning and talked nonsense.

In fact, this is not nonsense. Many times, inspiration comes a little inexplicably. Maybe in nonsense, a great invention will be born.

"It's not very realistic to have a handheld phone now, but if you want to combine a radio transmitter and a telephone, it's not difficult - probably you need a relay station -" Nikola Tesla was not talking nonsense. He took out a notebook from his vest pocket and drew a schematic diagram of a walkie-talkie.

"Look, with a simple conversion device, the mobile radio transmitter will become a mobile talker, but the cost is a bit high, and it's a bit difficult to promote." After drawing, Nikola Tesla showed it to Qin Zhiyuan. He felt it was not realistic after explaining it for a few sentences, so he tore off the drawn schematic and threw it into the wastebasket.

"Oh my God, can you not throw it everywhere? Don't you know the military value of this thing?" Qin Zhiyuan reacted quickly and picked up the paper immediately.

From Nikola Tesla's point of view, this walkie-talkie is indeed not very meaningful, but in Qin Zhiyuan's view, if the radio can be converted into a walkie-talkie, then it is worth spending any money.

If it weren't for Qin Zhiyuan and Nikola Tesla's ingenious ideas, it would probably take ten years for Motorola to start researching the first generation of walkie-talkies. Now, a drawing of a walkie-talkie was casually thrown into the wastebasket by Nikola Tesla, which almost made Qin Zhiyuan faint.

In the past, after Nikola Tesla's death, the US government sealed all of Nikola Tesla's research materials. God knows how many such "waste papers" there are.

"Well, if you think this thing is valuable, then I'll give it to you." Nikola Tesla didn't care at all, and casually gave away a great invention that could change the form of war.

Qin Zhiyuan was stunned by Nikola Tesla's generosity. He was stunned for a long time, and Qin Zhiyuan said a little unbelievably: "Do you want me to explain to you the value of this thing?"

Value!

Maybe Nikola Tesla doesn't care at all, but no matter how much it is worth, it is a proof of Nikola Tesla's personal value. Nikola Tesla may not care, but Qin Zhiyuan must make it clear, so that Qin Zhiyuan can use it with peace of mind.

"Value? If I want money, how much do you think I should charge for the patent of alternating current?" To Qin Zhiyuan's surprise, Nikola Tesla didn't care at all, and even Nikola Tesla didn't bother to know how much this piece of paper was worth.

After listening to Nikola Tesla's words, even a wealthy man like Qin Zhiyuan could only remain silent.

Yes, alternating current!

This is Nikola Tesla's great invention.

There are countless versions of the battle between Nikola Tesla and Edison about alternating current and direct current for people to talk about after dinner. It is undeniable that if Nikola Tesla insisted on charging patent fees for alternating current like Edison, then Nikola Tesla would have been the richest man in the world long ago.

It seems that Nikola Tesla really has the capital to look down on the "walkie-talkie".

"I now really feel that inviting you to Lan Fang is probably the wisest decision of my life." Qin Zhiyuan sincerely admired.

It is difficult to explain Qin Zhiyuan's current feelings. When Qin Zhiyuan came to this era, whether facing Foch, Clemenceau, Lloyd George and other big figures, Qin Zhiyuan had a sense of curiosity and freshness. Seeing that he was participating in the process of history, Qin Zhiyuan even felt absurd many times.

As a time traveler, Qin Zhiyuan has a clear psychological advantage in front of everyone in this era. No matter who he is facing, even if he is the British emperor or the President of the United States, Qin Zhiyuan does not feel much respect. In fact, deep in his heart, Qin Zhiyuan believes that everyone in this era is a barbarian from the "ancient times" and is not worthy of his respect.

When facing Nikola Tesla, Qin Zhiyuan truly felt what it means to be generous for the first time. This is the standard of "regarding money as dirt".

The original text is available at Liu # 9 @Shu/Bar!

"I feel the same way. There is a saying in the Chinese world that a scholar will die for his confidant. We have only known each other for ten hours, but I already feel that going to Lan Fang will be the most wise decision of my life." When necessary, Nikola Tesla can also say something that is very pleasing to the ear.

Nikola Tesla is not only talented in scientific research, but also a genius in language. Nikola Tesla is proficient in eight languages. In addition to his native Croatian, Nikola Tesla can also speak Czech, English, French, German, Hungarian, Italian and Latin.

It is estimated that in the future, Nikola Tesla will still speak Chinese.

Definitely.

"Okay, tell me about your future work, what are your requirements?" Since it has come to this, Qin Zhiyuan no longer hesitates and directly asks Nikola Tesla to make conditions.

"Ten million US dollars of research funding per year - that's what I'm here for." Nikola Tesla was not polite and immediately hit the snake with the stick, and did not give Qin Zhiyuan any chance to regret.

"Hahahaha - no problem, ten million US dollars per year, if it's not enough, you can add it at any time." Qin Zhiyuan is generous, let alone ten million, Qin Zhiyuan will give even one hundred million, because Qin Zhiyuan knows very well that the value of Nikola Tesla cannot be measured by money at all.

"That's good, there is no problem other than that - no, there is one more, I'm afraid I'm not suitable for showing up, so can you find me an uninhabited desert island, the kind that I can toss around at will." Considering the reaction of the US government, Nikola Tesla can still consider the problem from Lan Fang's perspective.

Strictly speaking, Nikola Tesla is still a wanted criminal of the US government. If Nikola Tesla shows up in Lan Fang without any scruples, it will definitely cause a strong reaction from the Americans. This is equivalent to a slap in the face of the US government, and the US government will never give up.

"First of all, I want to assure you that there is no problem. Lan Fang has the ability to guarantee your safety." Qin Zhiyuan has always been a bold and responsible person. Even if the US government really sends a commando, Qin Zhiyuan is not afraid. The Lan Fang National Security Bureau is not a vegetarian. This is Lan Fang's home court.

"Of course, if you want an uninhabited island, that's fine. There are many uninhabited islands in Lan Fang. You can pick one at random, but I still suggest that you don't live there. You should not be unknown, but famous all over the world." What Qin Zhiyuan wants to give Nikola Tesla is beyond Nikola Tesla's imagination.

"Famous all over the world--" Nikola Tesla immediately closed his eyes in pain.
