Chapter 577

After Chinese New Year's Eve, it means the arrival of a new year.

It was supposed to be a new year.

But inside the semiconductor quantum chip, there is a gloomy atmosphere.

The news that Academician Guo got from IBM in the United States has been deliberately disseminated by Gu Lu and let all the employees in the project team know.

Everyone knows that there is no one month left for their project team, but only, less than fifteen days!

It's a pretty cold and brutal truth.

But everyone had to try to accept it.

Just as Academician Guo thought, the research of the quantum chip project has entered the current stage, and it is no longer possible to stop if you want to.

Since you can't resist, then accept it calmly.

After a brief period of autism, the project team reluctantly accepted this harsh reality, and reformulated the research plan, ready to fight again.

Although it is only half a month, they may not be able to create miracles.

Because the project team is currently divided into multiple research groups, except for the research group where Gu Lu and Academician Guo are located, the research work of the rest of the research groups has almost entered the final stage.

In the end, there may not be no chance.

............

However.

At this critical moment that can determine the direction of history, a house leak happened to rain overnight.

Yanjing City ushered in a cold snap.

Many employees in the project team have already become ill from overwork, and as soon as this cold snap came, many researchers in the project team began to fall ill one after another as if there was a chain reaction.

The lighter ones can also do some simple work in the laboratory while dripping.

But the more serious ones were lying directly on the hospital bed.

And according to the doctor's instructions, those people have not been able to carry out high-intensity experimental research work in a short period of time, otherwise the condition will become more serious.

This time the illness came very suddenly, and the damage caused to the project team was very great.

Nearly one-third of the employees in the project team fell ill, and the vitality of each research group was greatly reduced, which made the pressure on the researchers of each research group increase sharply.

Not only the ordinary employees of the project team, but also some of the project team leaders, several of them were admitted to the hospital and could not come back in a short time, so they could only stay in the hospital to recuperate.

However, this is not the most desperate for the project team.

What made everyone in the project team most desperate was that Academician Guo, the leader and chief engineer of the project team, suddenly fainted in the laboratory and was rushed to the hospital when there was a week left before the deadline.

The pillar of the semiconductor quantum chip project team has collapsed!

............

In the hospital ward, Academician Guo was lying on the hospital bed, breathing steadily.

And around the hospital bed, there was a large group of people such as Gu Lu, Ai Liang, An Yu and others.

Academician Guo's eyelids lifted, and then his eyes slowly opened, and what caught his eyes was the white ceiling and the familiar faces of Gu Lu Ailiang and the others.

"Where am I?" Academician Guo sat up with his body propped up, looking at the somewhat unfamiliar environment around him.

"Teacher, you're in the hospital. Ai Liang replied.

"Hospital......" Academician Guo muttered softly.

Academician Guo's tone was not particularly surprised.

Perhaps this old man already knew that with his old body, he would be admitted to the hospital sooner or later after being in such a high-intensity working condition for a long time.

"Let's go back!" Academician Guo lifted the quilt and prepared to go back to the laboratory.

But before Academician Guo got out of bed, he was pressed back to the hospital bed by Ai Liang and a few people.

"Teacher, the doctor said that your fainting this time was caused by overwork, and in the next period of time, you need to recuperate in peace and mind, and you can't do high-intensity work again. Ai Liang held down Academician Guo and didn't let Academician Guo get out of bed.

As a student of Academician Guo, Ai Liang is very clear about his teacher's body.

Academician Guo is too old.

Originally, there were some symptoms of high blood pressure and low blood sugar, and during this time, he stayed up late every day like a young man, and he couldn't hold it at all with Academician Guo's physical strength.

This time, Academician Guo fainted in time when Gu Lu found out, and he was quickly sent to the hospital, so there was no major problem.

But next time, next time!

Ai Liang didn't dare to gamble.

And the stake is still the life of his own teacher.

cowardly, Ai Liang is really cowardly.

Not only Ai Liang was instigated, but the rest of the research team leaders in the ward were also instigated.

"Guo Lao, you can rest in peace, and leave the affairs of the project team to us!"

"That's right, Mr. Guo, the body is the capital of the revolution, and the project team is here with us, just relax your mind. ”

"Teacher, we won't let you down!"

"Guo Lao, you can rest in peace for a week, and after a week, wait for us to bring you good news!"

Everyone gathered in the ward smiled confidently and spoke.

But in fact, this is just for Academician Guo to see, the purpose is to make Academician Guo, an old man, no longer stubbornly choose to return to the laboratory.

And when everyone said those words just now, although they were full of confidence on their lips, they were bitter in their hearts.

Academician Guo fell ill.

This is nothing short of a problem for the project team.

First of all, the news that Academician Guo fell ill must not be hidden, and once the rest of the project team knows, it will be an absolutely devastating blow to the overall morale of the project team.

Of course......

The morale of the project team may be boosted by some means, but the second point is more worrying.

Academician Guo was previously responsible for the research and development of 30-bit qubit semiconductor chips together with Gu Lu.

At the same time, Academician Guo's research group is also the core task that determines the life and death of the entire project team.

And now, Academician Guo is sick.

There is only one person left in the core research group, Gu Lu.

This means:

In the last week, Gu Lu will be responsible for the workload of him and Academician Guo.

In the eyes of everyone, this is almost an impossible task for Gu Lu.

No, not almost!

It's simply impossible!

Everyone knows Gu Lu's level.

is one line higher than everyone else, but it is one grade worse than the top bigwigs in the industry like Academician Guo.

Even if Gu Lu is in the next week, at most he will complete the part of the work that Academician Guo is responsible for.

This is not enough.

Therefore, the biggest impact of Academician Guo's illness is not on their side, but on Gu Lu.

As soon as Academician Guo fell, the pressure on Gu Lu increased sharply.

And Gu Lu's research group is betting on all the employees of the project team.

Once Gu Lu fails.

It is almost certain that the entire project team's desperate plan has failed!
