Early morning, Ellington Manor.

Abu was in the kitchen as usual to prepare breakfast for delivery.

When I passed by the restaurant, I saw a familiar figure sitting there, enjoying the warm sunlight shining in from the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Sir, you are out. ”

This is the first time in more than half a month that Noah has come to the table to eat.

"Sometimes, I have to admit that talent is something that non-human beings can make up for. As if to see the curiosity in Abu's eyes, Noah laughed at himself.

This sentence is basically telling Abu that for such a long time, he still hasn't been able to make more breakthroughs in the "Arrow of Time".

It is clear that there is still a long way to go before the so-called door of time is opened.

"Sir, I have a question for you. ”

All along, it was Noah who did what he commanded. Now I probably feel that I am getting old and I don't want to leave doubts in my heart, so I took the initiative to ask questions.

It's rare.

"Just ask. Noah nodded.

"Since Miss Catherine is very talented in this area, she can turn around and perfect the arrow of time after she has finished the work at hand, why don't you just wait?"

"Are you trying to say that I've been waiting for more than 70 years, why am I in a hurry now?" Noah asked rhetorically.

"Yes. ”

Abu was indeed puzzled.

The "long-lived" gentleman of his own family was undoubtedly very intelligent, but as he said, he still seemed to be a little less gifted than Miss Catherine.

Especially when it comes to things that cannot be seen or touched like "time", it is not that hard work pays off.

Forcibly researching it hurts the body and the mind.

"You sit. ”

Noah motioned for Abu to sit down across the table, and then took out a rectangular silver box about ten centimeters long from his pocket, which glowed with a faint silver light, and anyone could see that the texture was extraordinary.

"Remember it?"

Noah placed the silver box on the table.

"Yes. Abu nodded.

He had seen Noah play with it in his hands more than once, and he had never left it or opened it for so many years.

"It was a gift from someone special, I remember buying it at a vintage auction. Because of the protection of this box, it has become the only object I brought in this world. ”

Noah looked at the silver box, and his thoughts seemed to have traveled through time and space to another world.

"Is it your wife?"

Neither the old Noah Ellington nor the little Noah Ellington in front of him had a wife or children, so Abu guessed.

"There are many differences between our time and now, and the concept of family has become extremely weak. Of course, as long as she's willing..."Noah rarely talks with a shallow smile like he does now.

Abu didn't interject.

He had never heard Noah talk about it all these years, and it was time to choose to be a qualified listener and wait for the other person to continue.

Moreover, Abu became more and more curious about what would be in the box.

Soon, after Noah put away his emotions, he returned to the topic, "In our time, Catherine Oxton has become synonymous with science, and she is even more famous than Newton and Einstein, and people call her a gift from God to mankind." Because of her, she has ushered mankind into a new era. ”

Hearing this, Abu finally understood a lot of things.

No wonder Noah has always admired Miss Catherine;

No wonder one day in 1987, Noah was so excited that he held a party at Ellington Manor, you must know that Ellington Manor has had only this party since it was built;

No wonder Noah always unconditionally supported any of Miss Catherine's experiments...

"But—" Noah sighed.

Abu also knows that such a story will definitely have but.

"According to the textbooks of our time, Catherine only perfected the theory of the arrow of time at the age of 37. ”

Catherine is 24 years old, and Abu silently counted, yes, there are still thirteen years.

"My arrival on your plane was purely accidental, and in this 'past' environment, I lived carefully all the time, thinking about going back to the original plane every day and every night. ”

Abu understood Noah's mood a little at this time.

He had waited decades for Catherine to be born, and now he was close to returning home, but he had to wait another thirteen years, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone to change.

"So over the years, I've been learning, and I've gone from a businessman who doesn't know much about science to a physicist businessman who wants to perfect the theory as quickly as possible, even if it's a day early. ”

Noah said, reaching for the silver box, which seemed to be about to be opened.

Abu's heart is in his throat, and his feeling at the moment is like chasing a TV series for decades, and he is finally about to usher in the finale.

And Noah did not disappoint Abu either, he did open the silver box.

In his time, the contents of the silver box had no special purpose except for the great commemorative significance.

Even so, with its unique commemorative value, it was auctioned at a terrifying price at that vintage charity auction.

Abu, on the other hand, saw only that...

A voice recorder

Taking out the recorder that was lying quietly in the silver box, Noah rewinded the recording message back to the original place and pressed the play button:

"Ghost Protocol initiated, recording the first experiment..."

——

Neighboring suburbs.

Ministry of Science and Technology Industry, Plant No. 2.

Early this morning, Ding Sheng received news from Feng Shi, saying that since the two production lines of A1 and A2 were launched, the first batch of products had been produced after working day and night.

Ding Sheng naturally rushed over non-stop, and as soon as he took a sample in his hand, he heard Feng Shi's question, "Mr. Ding, what is the name of this steel?"

name

Isn't this a steel plate, what name can it be...

"Let's call it primary alloy steel. Ding Sheng didn't know what the name of the Stark Industry would call and something internally, so he simply scrapped the name according to his usual name and.

"This is still rudimentary" Feng Shi opened his mouth wide, he really had a long experience.

In order to refine and extract the first batch of about one ton of so-called "primary alloy steel", these two newly opened production lines used about 3,000 tons of the best raw steel in China.

It is three times lower than the 1000:1 conversion rate that Ding Sheng said at the beginning.

Who would have dared to think that such a level is still only a beginner...

"It doesn't make much sense to dwell on names. ”

The hardness of this thing is still 108,000 miles away from the hardness of Edelman alloy and vibranium, so it would be nice to have a name.

You watched the Marvel movie Iron Man have been released twice, have you mentioned the name of this steel?

Not really.

I used my strength to break the steel bar in my hand, but the steel stripe did not move, "Okay, the quality inspection has passed, I will take it away immediately." ”

In the face of such a "rough" quality inspection method, Feng Shi was undoubtedly shocked again.

But how did he know that with Ding Sheng's current brute strength, ordinary steel bars folded like French fries.

Some time ago, in order to facilitate the pulling of equipment, Ding Sheng bought a pickup truck in the name of the company, which is quite easy to use.

Silently took the forklift, Feng Shi was about to send a few bundles of synthetic steel to the back box of the pickup truck, Ding Sheng said again, "Director Feng, leave it to me here, you go and get busy first." ”

After Feng Shi was persuaded to leave the scene, he casually picked up these two hundred pounds of steel and threw them into the back box, started the accelerator and ran away.

But he didn't run far before he was stopped by a beautiful figure.

"Meng Xiao, do you have something wrong" After getting out of the car, Ding Sheng asked directly.

"It's financial. ”

Meng Xiao held a large pile of purchase orders and financial statements in his hands.

"You say. Since Meng Xiao was invited to intern to manage finances, if the other party had questions, Ding Sheng naturally wanted to help answer them.

"For the whole of July, the company spent a total of 2.724 billion RMB..."

As of today, this data is still climbing in the range of tens of millions to more than 100 million per day.

Although there is now the first generation of Dabai Technology in production, several factories of the Ministry of Industry are also continuing to produce, and the rest of the factories of the Ministry of Industry under construction and directly operated stores around the world cost money, but this total expenditure is still too exaggerated.

Meng felt that it was necessary to ask Ding Sheng to confirm it personally.

"No problem, you're doing well, these are necessary expenses. Ding Sheng took the time to look at the purchase orders, most of which were actually the necessary expenses for the new base laboratory to manufacture the miniature tokamak device.

Now that the Ark reactor has begun to burn money, it will not stop until it is successfully developed.

"Necessary expenditures" Meng Xiao looked a little unconvinced no matter how she looked at it.

"I'm working on a new project right now, most of which is development costs, and I'll tell you the details when the time comes. ”

Regarding the laboratory of the new base, Ding Sheng couldn't tell Meng Xiao in a short time, so he could only stabilize her first.

This is a mixed truth, but it is enough to bluff people.

Of course, Meng Xiao also knows that the current Ding Sheng is no longer the high school student Ding Sheng of more than a year ago, in addition to participating in many national key projects, he also runs such an emerging technology company...

Although the money is like flowing water, since it is engaged in research and development, it is not incomprehensible.

"Ding Sheng, should I set some permissions for Meng Xiao. At this time, Guan Ju took the initiative to propose a worry-free plan.

"No, there are too many things for me and you to focus on, and you have a super brain that may not be able to understand what it feels like to be poor at times. If I really want to hand over the company to Meng Xiao in the future, it will be much better for her to have access to real financial information from the beginning. ”

"Okay. ”

In fact, Ding Sheng is a little wrong, the feeling of "manpower is sometimes poor" Guan Ju really knows, such as the last time about the Pym particle equation, it was very uncomfortable.

Even now that the quantum computer has been updated, it is still very uncomfortable.

After bringing the alloy steel back to the new base, Ding Sheng struck while the iron was hot, and asked Guan Ju to migrate the design drawings of the "Mark II" from the database, and after modeling it with holograms, he began to build a real steel armor one by one.

This time, it's all real money, and there are no copycats at all.

"Guan Ju, how long does it take to complete this shell" Regarding the help of Ju and intelligent machinery, after Ding Sheng has completed the preliminary preparations, he can basically free up his hands to do other things, and he only needs to pay attention to the progress regularly during the period.

"72 hours on the line. ”

"Okay, let's move on to the cold fusion experiment after the palladium ring is combined with a physical micro-tokamak device. ”

After saying that, one person and one system once again devoted themselves to the experiment.

After working all night again, early the next morning, Ding Sheng received a call from Yang Huaigu.

"Doctoral Dissertation"

"Yes, and three more. Yang Huaigu smiled a little ill-willedly.

"How did it become three?"

Ding Sheng couldn't figure it out, it wouldn't be to exploit him.

"You're a student at China University of Science and Technology, right, I've submitted a special application for admission to the University Degrees Committee Office for you, and then guess who went with me"

"Dean Lee"

Ding Sheng's head turned slightly, and he thought of the answer.

There are not too many messy reasons, the only person who can do something "together" with Yang Huaigu in Huake University is Li Chunbai.

If someone else was changed, Yang Huaigu should have asked: "Guess who I brought with me?"

"Yes, Lao Li said that your talent in nanobiology is very good, and he also submitted an application for you to enter the Ph.D. Finally, there is Lao Chen, who applied for your qualifications on the grounds of 'special contribution to the quantum radar project', which is similar in nature to your first Ph.D., but you have to write a related thesis. So, it's three, that's right. Yang Huaigu said with a smile.

"Then I'll have four PhDs in the future."

Ding Sheng only took the college entrance examination last year, and how long has it been, and he is about to get four doctorates in the blink of an eye.

What's more important is that from the very beginning, he met Yang Huaigu.

Although strictly speaking, Yang Huaigu did not teach Ding Sheng any academic knowledge, but he has done far more than a teacher can pave the way for this student, which is a real cherished talent.

Moreover, why these old academicians can't teach themselves, Ding Copying classmates know best.

It's not that their level is low, it's that this son has a high level.

"If your paper passes, of course it is. Yang Huaigu replied.

"Then am I the youngest fourth Ph.D. in the world?" Ding Sheng asked again.

"Of course... No, Zhang Shaoxu also got four doctorates at the age of nineteen in China, and abroad, the most well-known Catherine Oxton got her first doctorate at the age of 14, and when she got her fourth doctorate, she was only seventeen. ”

"Uh..."

Although Yang Huaigu was telling the truth, Ding Sheng was still very sad.

Let you pretend to be forced and be eaten back.

Maybe this is the difference between a natural genius and a halfway genius, after all, his potential was fully developed and realized when he went to the Marvel world.

It's normal to compare it to it.

"If you have to say it, Zhang Shaoxu's four doctorates are all related to biotechnology, and they don't have a wide range of directions like you, so will you feel better, as for Catherine's side... I won't give you a round. ”

"It's fine. Ding Sheng said to be strong.

"That's good, we'll give you three months to prepare your thesis. ”

After Yang Huaigu finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

Trimester?

I look down on people too much!

10、9、8、7、6、5......
