Chapter 84: Collective Strength
On the surface, the Xinmin Research Institute doesn't see anything, but the buses here are much more advanced, and electricity is widely used, but there are no power poles, and the substations along the way say that they have solved the problem of power transmission and transformation. Along the road are factories that Einstein had never seen, and there was no black smoke coming out of them, and there was not much noise to be heard, but the factories were clearly working.
"This is the Fine Machinery Research Institute of Xinmin Research Institute. Inside is the Smelting Research Institute, which has a small coal mine with very good coal quality. Along the way, Cai Wuji introduced.
"Can you go down and have a look?" Einstein couldn't sit still.
"Not now, I think you should be interested in our physics institute, they are in the Green Lake Research Institute, which is built in a cave deep in the mountains, so that you can avoid some ray interference."
"Can you detect rays?"
"This aspect is not my specialty. But apparently physics and electrons can. Do you see the rotunda over there? It's an observatory with a big telescope in it, so you see, there are a lot of factories here, but the light is very controlled, and at night, you can't see much light outside. ”
"Your house is very cleverly made." Albert Einstein nodded. He pointed to the radar in the distance again and asked, "What is that?" ”
Cai Wuji smiled: "Then we call it radar, it is a radio transmitting device, it can also scan the sky, find flying objects, and also detect signals of a certain frequency." But it's a big nuisance to the creatures, and we've restricted it. To solve this problem. The Institute of Physics wants to use radio telescopes instead of sounding radars. I want to use it to detect various radio signals from the universe. ”
Albert Einstein was taken aback: "You have realized Taylor's vision? ”
Zhang Chun smiled: "In fact, we thought about it earlier than him. A lot of the equipment here is very advanced, and I don't know the progress of research in the United States and Germany. ”
"From that point of view alone. You're a lot more advanced. Albert Einstein nodded.
"Of course, we were able to range with radar, very accurately, thanks to your theory, which accelerated our research."
The car drove into the cave.
Albert Einstein saw a ring-shaped device. This is newly built by the Institute of Physics.
"The device, which accelerates protons to about 25 MeV, is being modified to engineer the strength of the accelerator's magnetic field to grow in tandem with the energy of the particles along the radius. It is not known what effect it will achieve. Qin Deming from the Institute of Electronics and Wu Jingman from the Institute of Physics accompanied him. Cai Wuji and the others went back to Xinmin University to prepare for the welcome ceremony.
"It can't be. I know that there are people who are on the verge of success, but you are improving. ”
"This is not surprising because we have been using biogas for a long time to generate electricity. Therefore, the research and application of electromagnetism began at the earliest. In addition, the area is very rich in silicon mines, so we abandoned the electron tube and adopted the transistor. Because we don't have a lot of resources here. So my people learned to miniaturize. Miniaturization provides more research space for our design and research. You may have found it. The things I have here are small, but very delicate. Wu Jingman stroked his long hair, quite proud.
Einstein couldn't move when he saw the electron microscope. He saw that the microscope could be enlarged on a large wall made of transistors. Although a lot of people are maintaining a house like something, it's really amazing.
"You can take a picture of the scene and then show it, how do you do it store, calculate, reproduce the data?"
"Well, I'm a little embarrassed, we didn't do the calculations. Just simple store and reproduce. Researchers are trying to figure out how to implement computing capabilities, but you see. It takes a lot of people to maintain and often breaks down. They are working on ways to improve it. "Qin Deming is not modest at all.
This is the end of the tour. You know, Einstein was a brilliant man, and even if he did, when he went back, physics research would advance by leaps and bounds. Albert Einstein also knew that it was impossible to see more of himself. He now knew that the institute was staggeringly large. And he just visited a cave.
Back in the institute, Einstein gave three lectures in the physics department of the Xinmin Institute, mainly on the theory of relativity, which was his most proud research achievement, but it was not recognized by the West, and the Xinmin Institute gave him a prize a few years ago. This time I came to talk about it. In addition to lecturing, he also listened to the presentations of some students' academic papers, which surprised him at a high level.
It seems that the Xinmin Research Institute does not have classrooms, but only academic halls. Each building has one or several, and the others are laboratories. All graduate students in the academic hall can come to the stage to give a presentation on their achievements, and those below can ask questions at will. Originally, Einstein thought that the speech was prepared for him by the university. But in reality, the school only held a welcome reception on the day he came.
There are not many foreigners at Xinmin University, but there are many compared to a Chinese university. At least he saw only a hundred or so.
The researchers of the Xinmin Research Institute are not surprised or admired by Einstein's theory, and based on Zhang Chun's system theory, they believe that the common nature and internal relationship of the basic interactions should be described and revealed in a unified way, starting from the concept that the interaction is transmitted by the field (or the quantum of the field), which can be summarized into four basic interactions, namely strong interaction, electromagnetic interaction, weak interaction and gravitational interaction.
That's exactly what Einstein wanted to address. And the researchers at Xinmin University actually took it for granted when they asked a question.
Albert Einstein went to a student lecture on systems theory. It turned out that system theory and cybernetics were the real theoretical basis of Xinmin University. Under this theory, Einstein's research is only a small part of the overall system. He was even more fascinated by the traditional Chinese philosophical ideas contained in the system theory and the ubiquitous theory of evolution.
For example, researchers at Xinmin University believe that in addition to visible materials, there is also dark matter, and they can't find it because the band we detect is too narrow. In other words, what we see is only a small part of the world. Even electrons are not the smallest matter.
What broke Einstein was that, under systems theory, this is a natural phenomenon in general and is not surprising.
Compared with Western scholars, Western scholars are like children who feel that everything is novel. And for these Chinese, they will smile at you and say that this is normal, we just need to improve the means of detection and prove it. These young people are growing to death.
Albert Einstein left, with great reluctance, but he promised to return soon. For the first time, Zhang Chun felt that this great scientist, under his own research team, was really nothing. Einstein's talent was remarkable, but he did it alone. These individual researchers may not be so prominent, but the power of teamwork is enormous.

Sun Chuanfang occupied most of China's richest territory. Naturally qualified to fight at the negotiating table with Chiang Kai-shek. Negotiations to form a government are progressing slowly.
The withdrawal of the CCP from the KMT and the departure of Soong Ching-ling weakened the KMT, but also reduced the strife within the KMT. It's just that the power struggle doesn't stop. Chiang Kai-shek used the rebuke of Zhang Chun against the Comintern delegates and the Soviet ambassador to gain a large number of supporters within the Kuomintang, but also a large group of opponents. Wang Jingwei and Li Zongren believe that he is suspected of dictatorship. In 1927, the capital was Nanjing, and Chiang Kai-shek and Sun Chuanfang united to jointly control the Nanjing government. Wang Ching-wei and Li Zongren united with the Kuomintang leftists to carry out countermeasures within the Kuomintang. In March, the Third Plenum of the Second Central Committee of the Kuomintang passed a series of resolutions, including the "Resolution on Unifying the Party's Leading Organs," which enhanced the party's power and prevented personal dictatorship and military dictatorship, and removed Chiang from his posts as chairman of the Central Standing Committee and minister of military affairs.
Chiang Kai-shek could only go one way to the end, insisting on being anti-communist, strengthening his basic forces, and completely co-opting the Xishan Conference faction of the Kuomintang.
In July, Soong Ching-ling couldn't take it anymore and published an article in Xinmin Bao entitled "Statement on Protest against the Violation of Sun Yat-sen's Revolutionary Principles and Policies," saying that he had no more to do with the central government of the Kuomintang. Chiang Kai-shek was forced to resign as chairman of the Central Committee of the Kuomintang. (To be continued......)
