0731 Science & Technology Exhibition
What kind of exhibition is a science and technology exhibition?"
Wu Qian asked.
His concept of science and technology exhibitions stayed at the junior high school club club organized them to visit the Youth Science and Technology Museum, where the young Wu Qian saw many concrete scientific phenomena, which opened his eyes.
But if it is still this type of science and technology exhibition, then it is no longer attractive to Wu Qian today.
Dwayne Johnson said: "This science and technology exhibition is one of the largest in recent years, and there will be many high-tech companies and famous university research teams to show their scientific research results, if you are interested, you can invest. ”
According to Dwayne Johnson, this is a technology product fair, where scientific research teams and technology companies present their results, and then solicit sponsorship and investment, and investors can choose to continue research and development or direct production according to the actual situation.
After listening to Dao's words, Wu Qian suddenly became interested and said, "OK, go and have a look." ”
The two made an appointment to meet at the Convention and Exhibition Center, and Wu Qian, who was used to coming and going high, chose to travel by helicopter.
Javits Convention Center is located in West 34th Street, the most prosperous district of Manhattan in New York, was founded in 1986, is the largest convention and exhibition center in New York, with a total area of 70,000 square meters, the convention center is divided into four floors, a total of nine exhibition halls and more than 70 conference rooms.
If you live in New York for a long time, you have to go to the Javits Convention Center several times a year, because it is the busiest convention center in the whole country, whether it is a car show, a comic book exhibition, or a jewelry and luxury exhibition, wine, chemicals, fashion, etc., will compete to be held here.
The schedule at the Javits Convention Center is very tight, and if you want to hold an exhibition here, you may have to start queuing months or even a year in advance, and it can be very expensive.
In order to maintain the world's leading level of the Javits Convention Center, the Javits Convention Center recently spent a billion dollars to expand it, increasing the usable area and adding many functional halls.
After the expansion, the profitability of the convention and exhibition center has increased significantly, and the annual revenue of the exhibition alone has reached 2.2 billion US dollars.
The profits created by exhibitors to the Convention and Exhibition Center are only the tip of the iceberg, and the transactions generated through the exhibition are even more considerable, and the reason why exhibitors come from thousands of miles to exhibit here is only because of the reputation of this pavilion in the industry.
If you use ground transportation, there will definitely be a traffic jam from Long Island to the Javits Convention Center, but flying from the air is not such a hassle at all.
Not long after, H215 sailed to the sky above the Javits Convention and Exhibition Center, and without anyone deliberately reminding him, Wu Qian had already discovered the exquisite building through the porthole.
The post-modern style building, the main body is covered by neatly cut glass, which has a great sense of design and visual impact, and is very dazzling in the sunlight.
However, Wu Qian felt that this design style had never been seen before, and he recalled a little that the glass pyramid in front of the Louvre seemed to be similar to the convention center below.
"Rosalind, does this convention center have anything to do with the Louvre?" Wu Qian asked.
Rosalind was observing the situation on the ground, and when she heard the boss's culture, she said: "BOSS, the convention center has nothing to do with the Louvre, but the glass pyramid in front of the Louvre and the designer of the Javits Convention and Exhibition Center are the same person, and they are both from the pen of the Chinese designer Bei." ”
In this way, Wu Qian is clear, and his distinctive personal design style makes it obvious to him who doesn't understand architecture at all.
Helicopters fly towards the helipad next to the Javits Convention Center, and there aren't many people using helicopters in New York, but there are still a lot of them, so many high-end buildings will take helicopters into account.
After getting off the helicopter and walking to the southeast gate of the convention and exhibition center, Wu Qian saw that Dwayne Johnson had arrived, and the bald man was a bit of a gentleman in a dark silver suit.
"Johnson, long time no see. ”
Wu Qian walked towards Dwayne Johnson with open arms.
Although the two have only met in the capital and have worked together twice, due to some common hobbies and personality reasons, the two can talk very well.
The two bodyguards who followed Johnson were the two who had met in the Celestial Empire, the two guys who almost cried at the orphanage at the new beginning of their lives, and they also greeted Wu Qian and his party very warmly.
After a simple hug, Johnson grabbed David's position, hugged Wu Qian's shoulder, and said, "Wu, prepare your money bag, I have a hunch, I'm afraid you can't help but 'buy, buy, buy' today." ”
Buy buy buy three words, Dawn is said in Chinese, and the pronunciation is not accurate, which is very joyful.
Wu Qian shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Of course I want to buy good things, I'm afraid that if there is nothing worth buying, then it's not interesting, then Dao En, when did you become interested in these high-tech things?"
Dawn let go of his arm and stretched out his right hand, revealing a watch.
"Look, this is the product of a technology company I invested in before, come, Wu, I'll show you the function, pay attention, this is not an ordinary smart watch. ”
As he spoke, Dwayne Johnson began fiddling with his smartwatch as if he were offering a treasure.
There is a button on the side of the traditional dial, and with a light press of Dawn, the dial lights up with a mini OLED display, which can display a lot of information.
Wu Qian had heard of many smart watches on the market, but he never thought of buying them, because he was only loyal to pure mechanics in the field of watches, but he also knew about it.
"Dawn, there's nothing special about your watch, I've seen some products that can also display information such as steps and heartbeat......"
Wu Qian hit Dwayne Johnson mercilessly.
Dawn made a slightly waiting expression and said, "Wu, don't worry, if it's just that level, how can I invest, you see, it can not only detect heartbeat, but also atrial fibrillation and irregular heart rhythm." ”
"It records the ECG data, the blood vessel hypoxia level, the calories, and so on, and when it is connected to the companion app, it can manage and archive that data, and I can give it to doctors and fitness trainers to let them know more about my health, okay, right?"
"These features are only part of the story, but more importantly, it's accurate and waterproof, and I love it. ”
It can be seen that Dwayne likes this smartwatch very much.
"It looks pretty good, has this product been put into production?"
Wu Qian asked.
"It was already on the market a month ago, and such an excellent product only sells for two hundred and ninety-nine dollars, Wu, do you want to have a piece?" Dwayne Johnson asked wittily.
Wu Qian shook the watch made by Breitling and Rolls-Royce in his hand, and said with a smile: "I have a superhuman body, and I don't need to think about health problems at all, so I still choose mechanical watches." ”
"Haha, Wu, you are too humorous, I know you are disgusted with the low grade of smart watches, but you are still young and have a healthy body, and you really don't need real-time monitoring. Let's see what's new at this exhibition. ”
Dwayne Johnson thinks that Wu Qian thinks that the smart watch is too low-grade, but it is indeed not high-grade, three hundred dollars, if he had not invested in this technology company, he would not have worn it.
But he didn't know that what Wu Qian said was the truth......
The main reason why Wu Qian is reluctant to wear this kind of smart watch is not because his health condition does not need to be monitored, but mainly because he is worried that the smart watch will not only monitor his health condition, but also all his other conditions!
He wasn't suspicious of Dwayne Johnson, but he thought of the pervasive skills of CIA investigators, and he had to be wary that electronic devices with microcomputers were far less reassuring than ancient mechanical devices.
Today is the professional day of the science and technology exhibition, which is a more advanced authority than the media day, the media day is actually very messy, because the media card is really not golden, just like when Wu Qian visited the Beijing Auto Show, some media rushed to send him a media card in order to shoot his LFA.
The situation in New York is even more excessive, and on media days, there will be people who sell media badges far from the entrance, and the price is clearly marked......
Professional day means that only those who are invited can come to the exhibition, there are no idle people, no media or very few, and those who can come today are successful people, rich or upper-class people who have achieved certain achievements in certain fields, most of them with a certain purpose.
At the same time that Wu Qian and Dwayne Johnson walked into the convention center from the southeast gate, the group also walked into the northeast gate, which was Bloomberg, who was listening to the revue in Newark, New Jersey last night.
As a presidential candidate, Mr. Bloomberg is refreshed every day, and his main purpose here today is to get involved in the high-tech field and make his friends in this field aware of him, and he also brought a small media team to do some personal filming of him.
The place where Wu Qian and Dwayne Johnson met was the outer door of the pavilion, and when they walked through the inner door, they instantly felt different.
Of course, the exhibitors also know that today is a special day, and it is the best opportunity for them to attract sponsorship.
Therefore, the exhibitors of each booth are trying their best to display their products.
Walking into the exhibition hall on the first floor, Wu Qian suddenly felt that he had entered a science fiction world, with flying machines, strange-looking robots, incomprehensible posters, etc., which were very attractive.
Although he has not yet learned in detail, Wu Qian can already think that he will have a very interesting day today, where he should be able to learn about some of the cutting-edge technologies and trends in science and technology.
Wu Qian and his party walked to the booth closest to the door, and a beautiful woman in uniform in the booth walked up to everyone with a Gothic-style "heart" and dedicated the heart to Dwayne Johnson.
"Mr. Johnson, please take my heart. ”
The beauty "confesses" to Dwayne Johnson without twisting, apparently recognizing him.
Johnson was accustomed to these behaviors, and he smiled and took the gorgeous heart, and said with a smile, "Hey, what are you guys doing here......?" Why does it smell of chocolate? Oh ......."
Dwayne Johnson noticed that the "heart" he had taken from the uniform beauty was showing signs of melting in his hand.
"Mr. Dawn, this heart is printed with chocolate material, our company's 3D printing technology, can be printed with a variety of ingredients, understand, gentlemen?"
As an indispensable and important role in the era of Industry 4.0, 3D printing technology has now made more people aware of this technology, but this technology is not perfect, especially in terms of materials, but it is undeniable that 3D printing technology has become an indispensable technology in today's industry.
"Oh, wait, no wonder you're wearing gloves, bring a saucer, your heart is melting......"
Johnson is a little embarrassed by the sudden chocolate heart.
Wu Qian smiled and spread his hands, he still couldn't understand this kind of American humor, and he visited the content of the exhibition hall.
This company specializing in 3D printing of ingredients is quite interesting, it can be seen that the boss is a person with feelings, using various ingredients to print many classic characters in cartoons and games, and the glass display cases in the exhibition hall are full of alternative figures.
The company has positioned its 3D printing technology as a special gift.
Although it was very interesting, Wu Qian's party did not stay long, and after eating two chocolate hearts, they left.
The people at the next booth seemed to be waiting impatiently, and when Wu Qian and his party appeared in front of the booth, a person who should be the company's management suddenly jumped out of the booth.
"Johnson, I'm going to fight you alone, do you dare to punch me!"
The man in his forties with eyes had a defiant look on his face, but none of these were as attractive as those mounted on his right arm.
His right hand is covered by a complex mechanic, from the fingers to the shoulder, fully armed.
Wu Qian saw the other party's honor, and the corners of his mouth flicked, this is simply a real version of the unicorn arm.
Dwayne Johnson raised his hand to his forehead and said, "Man, I just ate a chocolate heart, what are you going to show me, if it's eating, forget it, what can you do with this stout robotic arm?"
Seeing that the other party had stayed, the middle-aged man hurriedly waved his mechanical arm, making a squeaky sound, only to see two staff members in the booth carrying a metal iron kettle out together, and one person holding a mat to follow.
For......
The iron kettle landed on the mat with a dull sound, which showed its weight.
I saw the middle-aged man smile at Wu Qian and his party, and then he moved his "unicorn arm" to hold the handle of the iron kettle, raised it lightly, and with a sigh, the heavy iron kettle was lifted by him with the sound of the wind.
It can be seen that the device mounted on his right arm can provide him with extremely powerful strength, similar to an exoskeleton muscle, which can help him lift tens of kilograms of weight in an instant, but unfortunately......
His arms were strong, but his waist and legs were not strong enough, and as soon as he lifted the iron kettle, he saw that his body was about to fall when he was skewed.
