On the fourth day after the turmoil was quelled, the fleet from Bohai Bay also arrived in Longyearbyen, and Professor Zhang Dada, the initiator of "Operation Glacier", and Academician Qin Yi from the Changping Research Institute finally arrived at this camp.

"The last time I came here, Longyearbyen was just a slightly larger village-sized town, but I didn't expect the camp to be so grand." Zhang Dada, who stepped off the boat, was surprised to see the scene in front of him, he had been to Longyearbybyen City and had been in the Doomsday Seed Bank halfway up the mountain for nearly a week.

The city of Longyearbyen has changed so much that the former dock for smaller fishing boats now extends to the small airport a few kilometres to the west. There are many ships at anchor in the harbor, and from time to time freighters leave the area, and more ships enter the port.

Longyearbyen has an airport, and it is located on the west side of the town by the sea, but it was abandoned because it was too small to support the take-off and landing of large transport planes. Today, most of the airport has been converted into a wharf to accommodate more freighters.

Zhang Dada and the others arrived at Longyearbyen City during the day, but the polar night had already fallen here months earlier. The blue-gray snowfields and mountains are still as familiar as when they came here for more than half a year. The only difference now is that there is a large camp at the foot of the mountain, which is brightly lit and adds a lot of life to the ice field.

More than a dozen nuclear reactors have been hoisted, and the project has entered the final stage, just waiting for the protagonists of this operation to arrive.

The protagonists of "Operation Glacier" were naturally the candidates sent by various countries to carry out the crossing, and everyone was given a relatively satisfactory quota according to the amount of contribution to the operation.

There are three in the United States, two in Jipros, two in China, and only one in other countries.

In the camp in Longyearbyen, the United States supported nearly half of the nuclear reactors, and the relevant equipment for the operation was also provided by them, while the Chinese side played the main role in the infrastructure work, and the Jeepros and other countries supported a lot of materials because of the proximity, so the quota was determined, and there was no dispute among everyone.

The number of people participating in the journey through time is also a symbol of national strength, and at this point, the United States is still the leader of the world. If it weren't for the fact that the delivery capacity had reached the limit of energy and equipment, people would have asked for more people. After all, there is a great risk in sending people to three years ago, and if someone from your own country has an accident during the transmission, it can almost mean that you will not have access to the most complete data first-hand.

The greater the number of people, the greater the probability that their own country will be able to reap the benefits of the action, which is the tacit consensus of all participating countries. Everyone is also selfish in unity, after all, competition is everywhere.

"It's finally all ready!" After some trimming, Zhang Dada finally waited for the notice of preparation for the operation, and he himself was one of the two members of the crossing operation on behalf of Huaguo, so when this moment came, he was so excited that his body trembled a little.

This is an excited reaction, Zhang Dada, as the initiator of the action, he is full of confidence in the direction of his project, and he also took the initiative to participate as a member of the crossing. Although he knew that the risks were very high, he was already determined to devote himself to scientific research.

"Why should I let someone else take risks on my behalf for my own project, and if I don't dare to stand up and get involved, how can I win the trust of everyone?" This is the reason given by Zhang Dada, for which he also carried out a short period of professional training in the Changping Research Institute.

Leave it to the whole world

Time is running out, more than a dozen reactors and tens of thousands of equipment are all ready, and the limit of energy and equipment can support is a little more than three years, and now the time since November 7, 2010 is very close to this value.

"Let's start," Zhang Dada confidently prepared to go to the traversal module set up in the Doomsday Seed Vault, but after arriving there, he suddenly heard bad news.

There was a problem of calculation errors in the valuation of the equipment, and the energy ratio and related parameters may not match the actual situation.

"What are the consequences of these problems?" Zhang Dada asked.

"Travelers are torn apart by powerful energy fields and turned into molecules or atoms smaller than powder." George?? Mather's expression was a little heavy, "I'm sorry, Professor Zhang, but this was my mistake. ”

"How long does that recalculate?" Zhang Dada's heart chuckled, and his face became anxious.

"It will take a month at the earliest," George?? Mather said that this conclusion was also reached when it was just reviewed.

"There's not that much time left."

"I know," George?? Mather's heart is not easy either, although the fault is taken by him on himself, but it is actually worth understanding.

The erection of the equipment and the commissioning work were carried out by George ?? Mather and his team were in charge, but the sheer amount of equipment and the little time he had left were left to make mistakes in calculations and valuations.

"We only have a week at most, and beyond that, the success rate of the operation will fall below 10%." George?? "My team is still working on it, and if it doesn't work, we're going to have to force it down." ”

"I see, Dr. George," Zhang Dada nodded, "do your best." ”

"Do your best," George?? Mather nodded, his eyes full of apologies.

Zhang Dada returned to the camp dejectedly, his appearance aroused Zhao Kang's curiosity.

"Brother Zhang, what's wrong?" Zhao Kang sighed a few times when he saw him, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Zhang Dada told the situation, and Zhao Kang couldn't help but be surprised, "The success rate is less than one percent?" What's the difference between this and sending to death? ”

"As long as there is a little hope, even if it is worth dying."

"Brother Zhang, take me to meet George?? Dr. Mather, I'd like to talk to his team. Zhao Kang said urgently.

"What are you talking about?"

"Talk about algorithms."

Zhang Dada took Zhao Kang to the equipment warehouse management room in the middle of the mountain, and the two found George. Mather, wait for Zhao Kang to explain his intentions, George?? Mather gathered all of his team.

"Young man, you should know that our time is very precious," said a Chinese researcher to Zhao Kang, who had just been pulled out of his job and was a little unhappy.

"I'd like to hear about how you calculate and what prevents you from doing things faster." Zhao Kang's heart was also very anxious, but he didn't mind the scientist's slightly emotional words.

After listening to the other party's description, Zhao Kang thought about it, and he raised three fingers.

"Give me three days and I'll give you the results, and of course you'll have to give me the data you need to calculate."

"Young man, why do you think that so many of us can't do it in a month, you can do it in three days by yourself

Finish? The Mi researcher stood up and said with a slight anger, he saw that the young man from China opened his mouth to report the number of three days, and felt that he was insulting his team.

"Why? According to the data of the first atomic bomb built by China, 80%~90% of it was calculated by hand. You may not believe it, but we Chinese people can create possibilities when everyone thinks it is impossible. Zhao Kang also held his breath, he said that three days was not a mouthful, but the other party misunderstood what he meant.

Zhao Kang didn't plan to have a battle of will with this Mi national researcher, he also stood up and said, "Give me the data you need for the calculation, if you can't fulfill what you said today in more than three days, I will send my face to the door at that time." ”

The people of the United States didn't know what it meant to "send your face to the door", but they knew from Zhao Kang's tone that this young man had made a military order. George?? Mather nodded, and motioned for a member of his team to come and get the backup data.

This astrophysicist is not only looking at Zhang Dada's face, but also has some plans to use dead horses as live horse doctors. Anyway, the Chinese themselves took the initiative to ask to participate, and when the time comes, the responsibility for the failure of the operation due to the wrong calculation of the data will be shared.

"Zhao Kang, are you really sure?" On the way down the mountain, Zhang Dada asked.

"Sixty percent sure, but it's enough." Zhao Kang nodded.

"Okay, I trust you." Zhang Dada patted his arm and didn't ask him much about his method. Because Zhang Dada knew that even if Zhao Kang told him his method, he might not be able to understand it.

Zhao Kang said that he is 60% sure that he has created a separate set of algorithms, which requires a wide range of knowledge and is very complex when creating it, but as long as it is successfully created, it will simplify most of the calculation methods and greatly improve the calculation efficiency.

This is similar to doing math problems, to make a simple analogy, the same two people do the "1+2+3......+100" arithmetic problem together, the former will only start from 1 and add the following numbers one by one, his calculation speed will be very slow, and the other person who has figured out the algorithm, he can report the answer to 5050 without any calculation.

It's just a simple analogy, but it's a microcosm of all algorithms.

The reason why Zhao Kang has this confidence to report this time of three days is based on the fact that his algorithm is already ahead of George. Mather's team.

After locking himself in the room and burying his head for three days, Zhao Kang really took out another calculation result, and he gave this result to George?? Mather, and compared it with the results of their team's initial calculations.

"You're saying our problem is that we make the mistake of treating some scalar data as vectors?" George?? Mather was a scientific genius, and within a quarter of an hour of comparing the two data, he discovered what was wrong.

"How can you be sure that your calculations are correct?" The rice scholar who fought with Zhao Kang three days ago was a little unconvinced.

"I calculated the result and did it again, believe it or not." Zhao Kang also responded politely.

"Based on your calculations, let's get ready for the final equipment commissioning. We don't have much time left, and now that one of these two results has been proven wrong and the other may just be wrong, I'm sure you all know what to do. "Finally George?? Mather was the final word.
