CHAPTER 71 AL

Oops, I'm making money again, really, I'm making a lot of money this time, I really don't know how to spend it.

Well, there are planes and yachts, and you may need a building, look at the rich presidents of the United States, in addition to these, there is really a building with his own name.

He tweeted: "I want to build a commercial and residential building with a difference, mainly to reflect our AirWork philosophy, with super storage furniture to make this building both home and office, please contact my assistant for designers or teams." Then there is the assistant's contact details.

"Wow, the professor is going to build a skyscraper, look forward to it!"

"Do you want the title of the world's tallest people?"

"It should be the most environmentally friendly and energy-saving in the world, and this is popular now. What's the use of the title of the supreme? Just keep piling it up, that's the work of the Middle Eastern tyrants. ”

"You should make weird buildings and see how weird they can be!"

"Where to build? Seattle or New York?" (Re: Silicon Valley, where rents are expensive, is a good place to promote the idea of AirWork)

As soon as it was announced, a large number of designers sent their dream house ideas, and one of them caused Ju Chen's biggest idea, because he mentioned that there is a fantasy transparent metal in the sci-fi classic "Star Wars", and there is also such a kind in reality, that is, transparent aluminum that is being used for bulletproof glass and fighter hoods, and the main component is ALON (aluminum oxynitride).

The design gimmick was the world's first large-scale building to use a pure transparent shell, including a frame that houses a glass curtain wall, a super-transparent building with transparent aluminum, and a 360-degree zero blind spot.

Naturally, there are traditional elevators in the interior of the building, but about half of the capacity is not elevators, but the now popular gyroplanes, which have entrances every six floors (which are said to be more habitable) for gyrocopters to get into.

Therefore, the design of the rotorcraft has also become the focus of the building. The designer was also able to design a gyroplane! His plan was that the main part of the fuselage was a cylindrical shape, like an elevator, with three sets of independent rotors, each of which was a coaxial twin-rotor, so that if any group broke down, the remaining two groups could safely transport passengers to their destination.

Even so, it was not safe enough, so within the first year of operation, it was only used to load goods, and all packages, takeaways, and garbage were transported by this unique gyroplane to test its stability. It is also necessary to build a strong anti-fall net underneath to ensure the safety of people downstairs.

Of course, the gyroplane must be unmanned and fly in strict accordance with the set procedures. The entrance is no longer a straight line, but a spiral, in order to better counterweight the building and allow a large number of aircraft to fly in a staggered manner.

So, fly upstairs in a gyroplane and take a spin around to see the cityscape of Silicon Valley.

This is really cool! But it is estimated that the consent of the air traffic control department will be required to carry out such a subversive innovation. It's always okay to ship goods, right?

The whole building is also cylindrical, and the particularity of the number 6 was said in front, so the preliminary setting is 66 floors, if it is not enough, it can also be increased, 96, or 132.

The cylindrical body, in order to avoid monotony, there will be a number of colorful floating lines spiraling, full of dynamics, Juchen suggests that this floating line is made of photovoltaic panels, full of science and technology, the most important thing is that photovoltaic panels should also be colored, efficiency is not the point, cool is.

Super storage is certainly dazzling, but there is a design that even customers who don't even need furniture, and that is - they can sleep in their own cars. The car can drive directly into the large elevator and send the guests all the way to the predetermined parking space, a parking space near the window, whether it is air or scenery, it is by no means comparable to the underground garage.

This design not only solves the parking problem, but also creates a "motel", really, not a hotel with a parking lot, but directly makes the car a temporary residence for guests, and there are public bathrooms nearby.

This is also an innovation made by Juchen to further develop the concept of "sharing".

Of course, electric cars can only be occupied, because there are no tailpipe emissions. Ordinary visitors' cars are still transported to the underground parking lot by the automated parking system.

For the health of visitors, each elevator will be equipped with sensors that sense respiratory infectious diseases such as cold viruses and flu viruses.

Many so-called "future skyscrapers" are planted with plants on the upper floors, which seems to be very close to nature, Juchen is not so fond of nature, of course, this design will not be adopted, and the original design also has a sky garden. Juchen changed this design to a scheme where artificial plants fill every corner.

The so-called artificial plant is the use of simulated plants to absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. As for the shape of the plants, of course, you can use your imagination at will, the point is that there must be a display screen to tell visitors: the oxygen content of the air is equivalent to the mountains and forests of GXBMYZ Autonomous County, the number of suspended cold viruses is far below the dose that may cause disease, how much PM2.5 is there, and so on.

Can natural plants be so powerful? Or are humans greater?

The name of the building, tentatively: AL Building, also has a Chinese name: Transparent Aluminum Building.

At first glance, the name reveals a strong sense of science and technology, which meets everyone's expectations for Professor Juchen.

The switch between apartments and offices, directly as the parking lot of the hotel, the use of space in the AL Building has reached the extreme, and it has become a testing ground for all people.

Billionaire's toys also include rockets, Musk and Bezos (who created Blue Origin) are among the best, and Ju Chen's small rocket project has also ushered in its first test flight, like SpaceX, which is also a few hundred meters above the ground, and then swaying to adjust its attitude in an attempt to land at the launch site.

Then, it failed.

A smart engineer can take everything into account, but God still doesn't give face, and it is necessary to investigate the reasons for the failure in depth, because computer simulations will be successful.

Ju Chen calmly watched the test flight of the rocket on the sidelines, listened to the engineers' discussion of the failure, and unexpectedly, his thoughts flew into the distance.

Flying machines that come and go without a trace are indeed a good thing, and it would be good to cooperate with invisible weapons that kill people. How could a mortal have thought that His Highness the Night King had such a terrible need?

Finally, he was inspired in another place, that is, when he watched the engineers weld, because many materials are plastic, they can be welded with ultrasonics, which is the frontier of technology. At the interface of welding, the energy of the ultrasonic waves is converted into high heat, which dissolves the plastic material.

Ultrasound, well, right, that's it!

In 1927, American physicists Wood and Loomis used ultrasound to carve and drill glass plates in the laboratory, which shows how powerful ultrasonic waves can be.

Aircraft equipped with ultrasonic weapons have finally surpassed the crossbow and become the most ideal assassination weapon. Imagine a silent flying machine gliding across the night sky, aiming at the target and stabbing wildly...... By the way, ultrasound is especially effective for brittle materials, and it is possible to drill a hole in the target's head without any chance of survival.

This principle can also be made into a sonic sword, killing people invisibly, but it can be combined with a pillar of light, which is as cool as a laser sword, but the principle is different, Star Wars' laser sword is nonsense, and his sonic sword is real.

This thing can go through the security check every minute, and if Juchen turns into a hijacker, I'm afraid that everyone on the plane will suffer.
