Xu Mang looked nervously at the huge device in front of him, although there were some rudimentary ones, all kinds of wiring and parts were exposed, but this was the most advanced quantum computer in the world, with 3,600 qubits.

"Professor Xu..."

"It's going to be done soon, I guess... In the afternoon, the relevant test session can be carried out. An engineer said to Xu Mang, "Do you want to participate in the inspection together?"

“...”

"I'll wait and see. Xu Mang nodded and said seriously: "It's not that I don't trust you, this device... You have participated in the whole process of chip development and assembly, you should know how much it costs, once there is any problem... Do you know what the consequences are?"

Hearing Xu Mang's words,

The engineer looked worried, and said helplessly, "I know... Catastrophic consequences. ”

soon

The first real quantum computer was completed, many people were moved to tears, several days and nights of work, finally completed the work, although there were tears, but the face was extremely proud, the world's scientific and technological changes, also have their own figure.

Xu Mang and everyone present inspected this equipment, inside and out, and finally confirmed that there was no problem, but... No one was able to guarantee that there would be no problems during the testing phase.

Among them is Xu Mang, who used to be only responsible for the theoretical part, and when something goes wrong, he can confidently say to others that the theory of labor and management is correct, but now it can't... As the head of the Institute for Quantum Computers, he needs to bear all the consequences.

"Ahem..."

"Now I officially inform you that the test session will be postponed to tomorrow, and everyone will work together in the afternoon to find out the problem. Xu Mang didn't dare to guarantee that there was no problem with this device, so he decided to spend another afternoon to check for hidden problems.

Eat at noon,

Xu Mang just took a few steamed buns and three packets of Fuling mustard, stayed in the laboratory alone, and began to check the equipment, but in order to increase the speed, Xu Mang began to cheat.

"The system... How can I quickly check the device?"

【Practice Makes Perfect】

Xu Mang: Embarrassed

It seems that this link cannot be skipped after all.

Xu Mang silently turned on the 'Practice Makes Perfect' ability, and also turned on the 'Beast Mode' to continue to minimize the time required.

"Yes..."

"That's right!"

"This place... That's right, too!"

In just half an hour,

Xu Mang almost completed one-third of the progress, and at this time, the three assigned researchers came to the laboratory, and the three of them had similar ideas to Xu Mang, using this short lunch break to complete some stagnant work.

Outcome...

They were surprised to find that Xu Mang had been staying inside for a long time, and there were still uneaten steamed buns and mustard on the table.

“...”

“...”

“...”

The three of them were speechless for a while, even this big scientist was working hard, what reason did he have to sleep?

"Professor Xu?"

"Is it so early?" Li Siyao said with a serious face: "You must have eaten yet, right?"

Xu Mang was stunned for a moment, looked back and saw the three of them, shook his head, and said, "Eat... Don't you see the steamed buns on my table? I ate two and two packets of mustard, and said... Why are you here? Don't you take a break, and you have to work again in the afternoon. ”

Li Siyao smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Professor Li... Seeing you like this, what reason do we have to rest?"

Words fall,

The three of them joined the team one after another, but the atmosphere was quite harmonious, Li Siyao and the others also liked to stay with Xu Mang, mainly because he was different from the experts and professors in the past, he was very funny, and told others a joke from time to time.

It's hard to imagine that a world-famous scientist is full of humor... This is completely different from the impression he gave to the outside world, before he came into contact with Xu Mang, Li Siyao and the others had a stereotyped, conformist, and strict impression of Xu Mang.

However...

"Hahaha!"

"I'm telling you... What a thief was so exciting at that time!" Xu Mang said with a smile: "The American guy was stunned by my pit, and he didn't know what his surname was, do you say I'm awesome?"

“...”

“...”

“...”

At this point,

Xu Mang continued.

"In fact, there is a sentence to say, although I have not reached the legendary beauty of the prosperous age, but when I take it out alone, I am at least in the top three in the world's handsome guy world. Xu Mang said solemnly: "You say... A handsome guy of this level, how many wives should he have?"

"I..."

"Two?" Li Siyao replied helplessly.

"What? two?!" Xu Mang turned his head to look at Li Siyao, and said angrily: "Two is just the basics, work hard to start four! Don't be too much, if you don't control it well, it will be seven, you have to understand a truth... Willing to marry a handsome guy of this level, they don't care how many competitors there are around them!"

The three of them were stunned, after the contact in the past few days, they actually knew that Xu Mang had a little habit, such as being very thick-skinned, living in his own world, liking all kinds of supercars, liking to stay in the office in a daze, sometimes lying down...

But...

Everything else is fine, this cheeky one is very thick... Something doesn't seem right.

He doesn't have any cheeks at all!

God is specially married to a handsome guy of this level, and he doesn't care about how many competitors there are around him.

"Ahem!"

"Professor Xu... In fact, handsome can't do whatever he wants, sometimes he still has to look inside. Li Siyao said: "Handsome is just the appearance, but the heart is the soul, Professor Xu... Actually, you have to improve your own inside..."

Words fall,

Even Li Siyao felt that she couldn't make it up anymore, and when it came to the inside... Isn't Professor Xu inner enough?

Time flies minute by minute,

soon

The large army came to the laboratory and devoted themselves to the intense work in the afternoon, in fact, Xu Mang had already checked almost, but for the sake of prudence, it was better to let others continue to check, one more guarantee, one more safety.

Belch?

This... What's going on?

Xu Mang found a very serious problem in the last key - ion trap, he found a screw on the ground, a very small screw, which was hidden under a certain ion trap, and Xu Mang felt unprecedented panic for a while.

The ion trap is one of the core components of the quantum computer, as the core component of multi-qubit expansion, the ion trap undertakes the task of generating photons or ions, it is connected to the ultra-fine optical thermostat, once the ion trap is unstable, it means that the device will fall into paralysis.

Hurried out of the laboratory,

Xu Mang made an emergency call to Director Xie Buchen of the Supercomputing Center of the Academy of Sciences.

"Hello?"

"Director Xie... Which department prepared this ion trap?" asked Xu Mang solemnly.

Followed by

Xie Buchen told Xu Mang an address.

"I... I found a screw under the ion trap!" Xu said, "I'm worried that this screw has fallen off from the top of the ion trap. ”

Hearing Xu Mang's words, Xie Buchen said with a frightened face: "A screw... This..."

Suddenly,

The two fell silent.

"I'll immediately contact the person in charge over there and ask him to send an expert over, and all the relevant experiments will stop running!" Xie Buchen said: "You report to you..."

"I will!"

Hang up the phone,

Xu Mang returned to the laboratory and notified everyone of the decision to suspend the experiment, and everyone was stunned for a while, looking at Xu Mang with curiosity on their faces.

As the decision-maker of the whole project, Xu Mang needs to take into account the overall situation, and sometimes he has to think about a lot of emotions.

When leading,

It's tiring to be a qualified leader!

"Hello?"

"Xiao Man... Today I don't come back and have some tricky things. Xu Mang made a call to Yang Xiaoman and said helplessly: "It's very important... The amount is very huge, and once it fails, it will cause a lot of financial losses. ”

Yang Xiaoman didn't cry and make a fuss, forcibly let Xu Mang go home, and comforted Xu Mang gently.

Following

The expert team composed of ten people arrived at the Magic Capital Quantum Computer Research Institute and met Xu Mang, just a simple greeting, and then put into the inspection link, Li Siyao and the three of them, who were standing next to Xu Mang, were a little anxious.

Yesterday at four o'clock in the afternoon,

The three of them received a notice and went to Xu Mang's office, where they heard the bad news and found a small screw under the ion trap, don't look at a small screw, many times important disasters often appear on small problems, and then a chain reaction occurs.

Who caused this accident, Xu Mang is not in the mood to explore for the time being, and the most important task at present is to solve this screw.

Two hours later,

The investigation continues, the cause of this screw problem is still not found, and the bad news seems to have been said in advance, one after another before the official test.

At this point,

Li Siyao found on the Internet that the screw incident of this quantum computer suddenly appeared on the Internet.

"Xu..."

"Professor Xu... Come here!" Li Siyao shouted at Xu Mang with a bloodless face: "There is one thing... To tell you. ”

"Oh..."

In a corner,

Xu Mang looked at Weibo with a frightened face, and it was the revelation of a well-known big V, and the content was the screw incident of the quantum computer, and the number of forwards had exceeded 20,000, and the impact was very bad!

Why is it on the Internet?

This...

What's going on here?

At this moment,

Xu Mang suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem, he had thought that something like this might happen before, but he never expected that the United States would act so quickly, who secretly spread the news?

"What about Professor Xu?"

"It's... What should I do about this?" asked Li Siyao.

"I'll give you a call..."Xu Mang said with a dark face: "It seems... This war without gunpowder has officially begun. ”
