Science Magazine, founded in 1880 by Edison with an investment of $10,000, became the largest scientific society in the United States, the American Science Institute, in 1894, and is one of the most authoritative academic journals in the world. There are 51 issues in the year, with a global circulation of more than 1 million copies.

Bao Zixuan's Industry 4.0 paper was handed over to Professor Kevin Bowman the next day, and as one of the judges and contributing editors of the scientific journal, Professor Bowman had a direct recommendation quota, so it was sent directly to the desk of the magazine's editor-in-chief, Brenda Jones, without preliminary review.

The 43-year-old working woman, a graduate of Columbia University's Department of Mathematics, has been trying to boost the number of papers published by young scholars in science journals since she became editor-in-chief of science journals five years ago. His last job was CFO for Tiffany, a well-known fashion and luxury brand. Her experience at Tiffany & Co. has made her demand perfection in many things.

The same scientific research achievement is a 60-year-old man and a 20-year-old young handsome man, which can not only attract the recognition of scientific journals by ordinary scholars, but also attract young women's yearning for scientific magazines.

He wanted to make Science Magazine a magazine that was scientifically rigorous and fashionable. Thus leaving the rival Nature magazine far behind.

But the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is skinny. After all, science is not fashionable, and many research results need to be realized within a certain number of years, and most of the heavyweight papers and ideas presented by them are over 50 years old, and many are 80 years old. Young people are very undominant in this area, and even if there is an occasional one or two gifted student submissions, it is a niche topic, or a lot of it is done under the guidance of the teacher.

Today, Brenda Jones finally waited for this opportunity, which was recommended by his friend Kevin Bowman, a gifted student at MIT who was not yet 20 years old. And Professor Bowman's excitement on the phone can be felt even through the phone.

As a friend of many years, Professor Baumann is very clear about his personality, and this German immigrant who is rigorous in his academic requirements adheres to the rigorous style of the Germans. There is no affection in front of him, and if he can praise one of his students so much, it proves that this student must be outstanding, and his thesis must have been recognized by MIT. Otherwise, Professor Bowman would not have been able to put the paper directly on his desk. This is using his reputation to endorse the student, unless the student is his illegitimate son, but fortunately, this Bao Zixuan is an authentic Xiangjiang person.

Looking at the thesis ideas and the suggestions made, Brenda Jones is a graduate of the mathematics department. But there are some academic terms and advanced cognition that make me not understand. He immediately called all the science and engineering scientists on duty, as well as the members of the jury who could be contacted, many of whom were professors from well-known universities or heads of important laboratories.

Everyone in the conference room was stunned by the author's ideas and data when they saw this paper that was at least 20 years ahead of this era, and everyone agreed that this was the way forward, and that many of the arguments were based on practical evidence. It was unanimously agreed that the latest issue of the cover article could elaborate on the concept of Industry 4.0 and serve as a guide for the next stage of physical and mechanical ethics research. And many scholars should think about the connotation of Industry 4.0 and the scientific value in it. My own school and laboratory should start research in advance.

Bao Zixuan didn't know that his article would cause such a stir in a science magazine, and he was now writing his own office software in his dormitory. It wasn't until his roommates showed him the latest issue of a science journal that he reacted.

Hearing a knock on the door, Bao Zixuan opened his door after storing the code.

After seeing that it was Joseph Kane, Bao Zixuan greeted him, because there is very little communication between these science and engineering men at MIT, and everyone may be more interested in scientific exploration. It's just a simple hello when we usually meet, and this is the first time someone knocked on the door to look for him.

Bao Zixuan: "What's wrong, Joseph." ”

Joseph Kane: "Bag, you're so uninteresting, if it weren't for Romansky telling me that we were still in the dark! Hurry up! everyone is waiting for you in the living room!"

When Bao Zixuan followed Joseph Kane to the living room, he saw that everyone was looking at him like a monster, and said, "What's the matter, everyone, what's the situation." ”

Martin Griff has a black hip-hop vibe by nature and says, "Bag, you're a big celebrity in science right now!" We've never had a meal or celebration since we moved together, and you don't look like you're short of money, so we're going to have to slaughter you." It's not the AA system this time, how about you take it!"

In the United States, everyone eats in the AA system, and these science and engineering men rarely go out to party. But after Martin Griff finished talking today, everyone thinks it makes sense, after all, they have lived together for more than half a month, and we can take this opportunity to get to know and communicate well. And it's also right to go out and relax once in a while, people are not machines after all.

Bao Zixuan: "It's all right, but you have to tell me what happened!"

Thomas Marr: "You don't know yet! Michael shows him, the science magazine is in your hands!"

After saying that, Michael Mellon handed over the latest issue of the scientific journal to Bao Zixuan. "Take a good look! You're now a well-known scholar of industrial theoretical physics. Michael Mellon said to Bao Zixuan.

In fact, Michael Mellon was full of emotion in his heart, he didn't expect that the youngest roommate among them was actually recognized by a scientific magazine, and it seemed that he was going to have a good relationship with him.

After Bao Zixuan took over the science magazine, he saw that the cover was written the future development direction of industry - Industry 4.0, and a 20-year-old MIT teenager Bao Zixuan was written in small print below, giving you a new understanding of industrial development.

Seeing this, Bao Zixuan didn't expect Professor Bowman to actually let his paper be recommended as a cover article, it seems that this professor's energy is very great! In fact, Professor Bowman does not have such great energy, it is a decision unanimously approved by all scholars, but Bao Zixuan does not know.

At the same time, subscribers to the latest issue of the Science Magazine and individuals are seeing Industry 4.0. Since it is a thesis, Bao Zixuan expressed it in much more detail than in class. He not only briefly introduced the concept of Industry 4.0, but also explained the characteristics of Industry 4.0.

When we see the basic characteristics of Industry 4.0, one is people-centered, Industry 4.0 is a people-centered strategy (customers, producers, managers, employees), the whole life cycle of manufacturing (design-manufacturing-logistics-sales-maintenance) to achieve interaction with customers, driven by customers production, sales and logistics, the pursuit of the best consumer experience.

The second is digital link, the basis of Industry 4.0 is communication, which means that equipment, technology, production lines, industry, factories, products, workers, managers, suppliers, customers and services are closely digitally linked in one device. In fact, this paragraph of Bao Zixuan has been rectified according to the terminology of this era, making it look less whimsical.

The third is new elements, data has become an important factor of production, sensors are everywhere, smart devices are everywhere, smart terminals are helpless, and connected devices are everywhere.

Fourth, collaboration and integration. Industry 4.0 is not a specific technology, it is the synergy and integration of a series of specific technologies that already exist or are developing.

Fifth, automation. The manufacturing industry will be transformed from siloed automation units into integrated automation equipment that can be connected to each other, thereby improving the flexibility, speed, productivity and quality of manufacturing systems.

Sixth, intelligence. Industry 4.0 is committed to the production of smart products, the creation of smart programs and processes, the construction of smart factories, the development of smart services, and ultimately the realization of an intelligent industrial system.

Seventh, everything is a service. Industry 4.0 has transformed products from focusing on production to services, from selling products to selling services, or selling products and selling services.

Eight is: big ecology. Industry 4.0 will use the new industrial platform to build a broader and larger ecosystem than the original, and realize the allocation of resources and factors on a larger scale.

This common feeling in the 21st century has caused a great sensation in universities, laboratories, and enterprises in this era, making Baozi Xuanzai's science and technology circle famous all of a sudden. In the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where geniuses gather, they are all celebrities, and the men of science and engineering are very simple, and whoever has good research results can be respected and recognized by everyone. For this reason, we have also received many job offers from schools and companies.
