"Let's go back to our previous question", Wang Yinan slowed down his tone,

"Actually, I don't understand why such a purely theoretical paper would set off such a big storm on the blue star," Wang Yinan said with some puzzlement.

"Unlike the previous examples, such as the discovery of the hole in the ozone layer and the emergence of nuclear weapons, many situations are different, this paper is more meaningful in academia, and does not have any practical help for the research of artificial intelligence or even the entire scientific research."

"In other words, the paper is of no practical use at all, except for allowing humanity to discover some of its limitations",

"At least the world hasn't gotten worse than it used to be," Mr. Wang said.

"So I really don't understand that there would be such a big reaction from the public",

Principal Lin nodded, "I think it's driven by fear", "After all, human beings are always full of fear of things beyond their understanding."

"I think it's human beings who get carried away by their own achievements, so they panic when they find out that things are not entirely under their control," Wang Yinan added.

"As I said before, as long as human beings maintain a sense of awe and realize that we are part of the natural world, and there are still too many things for us to study and learn, there will be no effort to dwell on the question of whether AI will replace humans."

The press conference lasted a full three hours, and this was the first time that Wang Yinan, the person concerned, made his views public in front of the media, and soon after, everything that happened at the reception, including every word Wang Yinan said, spread throughout Blue Star.

Human beings are social animals, the vast majority of people are blindly obedient, seeing that people around them go to the supermarket to buy salt, they can't help but buy a few bags to put at home, as for what is the reason for buying salt, who cares, anyway, others buy me and I will suffer a loss.

And once there are different voices, the wave of opposition to artificial intelligence that swept across Bluestar began to diverge. Of course, Wang Yinan's views cannot convince everyone, but his views have prompted more people to start thinking and forming their own opinions in addition to blind obedience.

So slowly, public opinion began to turn, from "where will artificial intelligence, which humans cannot understand, take civilization?" This sensational title has become something like "Abstract thinking has reached its own limitations, XXX says that figurative thinking is king".

An unexpected side effect occurred, and there were many more parents who chose to learn music, art, painting, and other interest classes for their children, and Wang Yinan inadvertently contributed to the great improvement of the artistic taste of all mankind.

So much so that there was such an advertising slogan, "Are you still learning the damn Olympiad, you are out, Professor Wang Yinan said, intuition and visual thinking are king, welcome to join our little sapling painting hobby class... ”

Wang Yinan successfully took the building crookedly.

Of course, he couldn't take care of these things himself, if it weren't for his respect for the old man Grothendieck, and didn't want his great discovery to be drowned in the long river of history, Wang Yinan would not have caused so much trouble for himself.

For Wang Yinan, a thorough pragmatist, the role of this discovery is much smaller than that of superconducting materials, and it is not even as good as the flying carpet, at least the flying carpet is still a sharp weapon for X, the best gift for his girlfriend.

After the press conference, Wang Yinan hurriedly boarded the high-speed train to Jinling.

I have to say that high-speed rail is one of the greatest achievements of China, in this vast land, the high-speed rail network is like an artery and blood vessels, connecting cities one by one, "it's time to put the maglev train on the agenda", Wang Yinan thought, "But the key to the maximum speed of the train may not be the resistance between the wheels and the track, various safety problems on the route and natural conditions are the main reasons for limiting the speed",

"Because the maximum speed of the rail line seems to have reached more than 500 kilometers per hour?".

"There are experts from the railway department in this regard, so we don't need to go beyond the bounds, go back and find a suitable partner, give them the superconducting coils, I believe there will be a natural result", feeling the smooth speed of the train, Wang Yinan muttered to himself,

"Perhaps video surveillance and track monitoring all over the line, coupled with the analysis and judgment of artificial intelligence, to deal with any safety hazards, is more important for high-speed rail than superconducting coils."

The high-speed rail train came to Jinling South Station, and Shen Wei of N University had been waiting outside the station for a long time, the newly bought Tesla Model X was really cool, Wang Yinan came up and teased, "It seems that I have earned a lot, and the shotgun has been changed."

"This is what you approved", Shen Wei was a little embarrassed,

"Just kidding", Wang Yinan didn't figure it out, with his aura today, can he joke casually, scaring Shen Wei enough.

Not long after the Model X left the train station, he came to a brand-new factory, "It turns out that your new factory is here, and it is quite close to the station", Wang Yinan looked at the modern and magnificent factory and admired.

"I chose this place because it is relatively close to the railway station and the airport, and now the demand in Pengcheng is too great, and the workers are too busy to work in three shifts," Shen Wei said.

Wang Yinan walked into the workshop, and sure enough, it was completely different from the previous manual assembly in the N large laboratory, the modern assembly line was running at full power, with a total of less than ten workers, and small superconducting motors were constantly coming down from the assembly line.

Then the car waiting at the door is boxed, transported directly to the railway station or airport, sent to Pengcheng, where it is assembled into pieces of military flying carpets, which are directly pulled to the training ground by the special vehicles of the troops who are also waiting at the door, and then turned into soft sister coins and returned to the accounts of various companies.

After turning around the workshop twice, Wang Yinan grabbed Shen Wei impatiently, "What about that big guy?" You know I'm not here to see the assembly line."

"It's so lucrative here", Shen Wei said, "I thought you must be very concerned",

"The last thing my brother lacks is money", Wang Yinan muttered, urging Shen Wei to quickly take himself to see the main master.

In the evening, the two finally arrived at the laboratory on the edge of N University, and in a much simpler assembly workshop, Wang Yinan saw the big guy he had been thinking about.

Compared with the gadgets on the flying carpet, this is indeed a behemoth, fifty centimeters long, about thirty centimeters in diameter, and only a cube metal cover is used to make a simple package on the outside, and the aviation superconducting motor fixed on a huge base immediately attracted all Wang Yinan's attention.

"This is our aero engine, it's so beautiful", Wang Yinan looked at this thing, he couldn't put it down, he asked Shen Wei,

"Have you tested the maximum speed and maximum torque"?

Shen Wei smiled embarrassedly, "I only know that the torque is not less than XXXX Nm, and the speed is not less than YYYY revolutions per second."

"Why isn't there detailed data?" , Wang Yinan asked,

"Because we can't measure it, the measuring equipment in the laboratory is far from reaching the upper limit of this motor," Shen Wei said.

Well, what a sweet annoyance, "I remember that Jinling University of Aeronautics and Astronautics has its own aero-engine laboratory, and they should have better equipment", Wang Yinan said,

"Then do you want to ask the school to come forward and ask them to help?" , Shen Wei asked,

"No, they have a lot of mouthfuls there, and it's hard to keep it secret," Wang Yinan quickly denied his idea.

"Aside from the fact that the upper limit of work data cannot be measured, what are the problems?" , Wang Yinan asked,

"How about the stability of the continuous work, what about the heat generation",

"One of the prototypes, we have been running continuously for 480 hours at 75% of the design power, the working curve is very stable, the speed is almost not fluctuating, and the heat generation is very small," Shen Wei replied.

"Is there anything else that is missing other than the shell, and how many prototypes have been built?" , Wang Yinan asked,

"There is nothing missing, we have built a total of three prototypes, and one of them has been in long-term work testing," Shen Wei replied.

Wang Yinan picked up his mobile phone, took several photos of the prototype from different angles, sent it to Chief Teacher Yang of the 116 Institute, and then dialed Chief Teacher Yang's phone.

"Master Yang, I'm Wang Yinan",

"How's our Stratoprowler drone going?" ，

"Just the engine? Don't worry, I didn't implement it for you", Shen Wei looked at Wang Yinan from the side, his eyes were straight, when did he, a world-famous alumnus, actually show a flattering smile and talk to people on the phone.

"I just sent you a few photos, it is all angles of the aviation superconducting motor, the specific size, you wait, I'll ask", Wang Yinan didn't notice that his alumnus was on the side, he turned around and asked Shen Wei, "What is the exact size of the motor?" ”，

"Ah", thinking that his careful thinking had been discovered, Shen Wei was startled, and it took a long time to answer, "The length is 58 cm, including an 8 cm transmission shaft, and the diameter is 32 cm."

Wang Yinan picked up the phone, "The diameter is 32 cm, the length is 58 cm, there is no specific performance data, you can try it yourself and see if you can find its upper limit", Wang Yinan said irresponsibly at all,

"By the way, the motor currently has no shell, you are good at pneumatic shape design, just open a mold by the way, and get a shell for it."

Wang Yinan said lightly, but Chief Master Yang, who was far away in Shudu, was frightened, "The diameter is 32 centimeters, this is too small, is the torque enough, although the air is thin at high altitude, but the propeller should not be small, can such a small motor be moved?" ”。

"Can you bring it to work, don't you know if you try it?" , Wang Yinan really deserves to be a pragmatist physicist, "Did I ask someone to send it to you, or did you send someone to get it?" Wang Yinan asked,

Chief Master Yang thought for a while, "It's better for me to send someone to get it, it's always not safe to take civil aviation or highway traffic."

"You give me the phone number of the contact person, and I will ask the troops to help run a trip", obviously, the influence of the 116 unit is nothing, and it is not a matter at all to get a transport plane to run.

Wang Yinan gave Shen Wei's phone number to Chief Master Yang, "When the people sent by Chief Master Yang arrive, you must personally verify with Chief Master Yang before you can give them the remaining two prototypes", Wang Yinan told Shen Wei very carefully.

After finishing the motor business, Wang Yinan saw that the time had reached ten o'clock in the evening, it seemed that it was too late today, so he dialed a phone call,

"Director Ma, I'm already in Jinling now",

"Yes, it's too late today, I won't bother you",

"Don't bother you, I booked the hotel myself, it's very convenient for me to live here at the school, it's very close to you",

"Of course, I've been in Jinling for many years, and I'm very familiar with it."

"That's it, I'll come to the office at ten o'clock tomorrow morning to look for you, and call you at the door."

Whether the Stratoprowler program can continue quickly depends on the outcome of tomorrow's meeting.

Therefore, with such a big character as Wang Yinan, it took a long time to fall asleep. 8)
