Chapter 694 Win-win cooperation
It took the foreign mission two days to visit the three large islands of Chongming, and in the course of the visit, they saw so many surprising things.
The first is agriculture and forestry, the three islands are located at the mouth of the Yangtze River, belonging to the alluvial island of the estuary, the island is flat, less than five meters above sea level, the land is very fertile, not to mention the woods are also very lush.
According to the data released by the government a few years ago, the total sown area of grain crops in the whole region has exceeded 700,000 mu, and the forestry, animal husbandry and marine aquaculture industries are very developed.
In terms of energy, Chongming is mainly based on wind power, and it is very convenient to use local raw materials for power generation, and the energy is also very clean and will not pollute the local environment.
Many researchers can see these favorable factors at a glance, but they do not get similar results through data modeling when they return to the site. Because no matter how much it is scrutinized, the model is far from the current situation in Chongming in the process of simulation development.
"Is there something wrong?" Some people began to ask such questions.
In the face of doubts, everyone quickly thought of a very practical problem, that is, on the basis of the successful reconstruction of Hengsha Island, the Chinese people have begun to copy this model in Changxing, and then Chongming Island is also lined up.
These people have seen the development of Changxing and know that its success is only a matter of time, and these foreign researchers are a little distressed and even frustrated about why the Chinese can do it but they can't even simulate it.
"What do you think, Chairman Wiesel?" When a few pieces of material appeared in front of Owen Wiesel's case, several pairs of eyes were looking at him.
"If Chongming's development can't be deduced through data modeling, it can only mean that we missed something in the process," said the president of the National Science Foundation of the United States, who circled a few places in one of the deduction reports with his pen.
"Any questions?" The person who submitted the report asked.
"I don't know, I just know that if there is a problem, then it is very likely to be on these points."
As the president of the Science Foundation, Owen Wiesel is very knowledgeable, and he has just carefully read the materials analyzed by everyone, and he already has some different opinions in his mind.
"Cooperation, we have our advantages, Huaguo also has their advantages, cooperation can be a win-win situation." He thought for a moment and then said, "Regarding the progress of the research on time and space, we can appropriately disclose some to Huaguo, their 'Operation Glacier' plan is very large, and they have to know what level of help we can give if they cooperate with us, so that the plan can be more perfect, and the fault tolerance rate will be improved." ”
"Our country does not have a good geographical environment like the three islands of Huaguo, the plain area is mainly concentrated in the east, from the foothills of the Luoji Mountains in the west, to the Mississippi River Valley in the east, although it has rich water resources in the Mississippi River Basin, but after all, the area is still too large, and it cannot be defended and cannot be developed."
"What about Hawaii?" Someone suggested.
"How do you ensure the fresh water needs on the island, as well as energy sources such as electricity?" "In terms of electricity, we may be able to use solar energy to solve the problem, but in the case of fresh water, the only solution we have is desalination, and the energy that desalination needs to consume is something we can't afford." ”
"Even if we can solve the energy and water problems, and the food problems will be in front of us, growing corn and wheat on the islands, hehe, are you serious?" Owen Wiesel smiled, "That's why I said we want to cooperate, we don't have some resources in China, and they may lack what we have." ”
"Everyone, get ready, the second phase of the conference should start soon," Irving Wiesel looked back from the papers on his desk and looked around him.
"How?"
"Dr. Qin Yi of Huaguo invited me to his private banquet."
As Owen Wiesel had expected, the second phase of the meeting began a day later, and the key figures in the missions of several major powers were invited by Qin Yi, and after meeting and negotiating, everyone seemed to reach some kind of consensus.
This consensus is the key to the second phase of the General Assembly.
The protagonist of the second phase of the conference was Silves Freeman, an expert in quantum mechanics from the United States Mission, who came to the stage, first greeted the attendees, and then began to briefly introduce some knowledge related to his own profession as a reference for those who do not know quantum mechanics.
"Quantum mechanics is a very complex science, and it is the basis of physics today. Allow me to use a few simple examples to educate you about science. ”
"Let's say I have a pair of gloves on my hands, and now I'm going to send one of them to Los Angeles and the other to Orlando, if I don't tell everyone, can you tell if it's the glove on your left hand that is going to Los Angeles or Orlando?" ”
"In fact, we don't know where the gloves on our left hand will go," said Silves Freeman, who shook his head as most of the audience saw it. "But when someone in Los Angeles opens the package I sent and finds that it contains a right-handed glove, you think that it must be a left-handed glove sent to Orlando. This was an attempt because the gloves on both hands were paired, but because we weren't sure about the delivery process, we couldn't confirm in advance which one was left and which was right, and only when we saw which one was sent to Los Angeles or Orlando, we would easily think of the other one. ”
"Your Excellency, does this have any connection with the quantum mechanics you are talking about?" A member of another mission asked.
"Of course, in quantum mechanics, we have done a lot of experiments, and we have also proved that if the same quantum system is divided into one part, when one of the states is detected, the rest of the parts will immediately adjust to the corresponding state. This quantum system can perceive and adjust its own positional state, just like a living and intelligent living body, does it feel a little scary to think about, this is the example of the glove I just mentioned, it is actually a kind of 'quantum entanglement'. ”
"I'll give you another example, you must have encountered this situation in your work, when your colleague calls and asks you to send a report to him, you scan the report and send the information data to your colleague over the network, and then your colleague sees it and prints it out, which is signal transmission. But in quantum mechanics, transport is achieved by using quantum 'entangled states'. ”
"For example, what if your colleague is far away from the earth, then you can transmit information through this quantum entanglement: you are at A, there is a photon A, and your colleague is at B, there is a photon B, and when these two photons are in the entangled state, any information you send to the colleague, the B photon will get it immediately, and vice versa. Not only that, but traditional information transmission cannot transmit the size, thickness, and atomic structure of the reported paper, but this quantum entangled state can. ”
The two examples given by Silves Freeman are so vivid that they even upend the perception of the whole world by some of the scientists present.
"You may need a little time to digest this knowledge, in fact, I think the human brain is also a quantum computer, because the brain distinguishes different information and integrates different information, and the speed is unreasonable, just like you are in the conflict between two cognitions just now, the brain is bound to choose one for you."
"Let's get down to business, the reason I gave these two examples just now is to show that through the study of quantum mechanics, we have touched a new threshold in the scientific community, and many years ago there were people who fantasized about traveling through space and time, and a large number of directors have also used movies to show this fantasy on the screen. Well...... They are not only present in the screen, at least we have tried and made some progress. ”
"Hey, are you going to show off your family?" Zhao Kang's face was a little excited, and Silves Freeman made him realize that the people of the United States had begun to take the initiative to cooperate with the "Operation Glacier" plan.
"We've been experimenting with this since the middle of the last century, in Philadelphia, in San Francisco, in Alaska, and so on. Initially, we only experimented with space transmission, which was a success in World War II, when we sent a warship 500 kilometers away, but of course we wanted to send it further afield, such as the waters near the Sakura country mainland or the western Pacific Ocean. ”
Silves Freeman smiled as he said this, there was no Sakura country embassy present, because the country had disappeared in the disaster, so he didn't have to be taboo when he mentioned the story of the-for-tat between the two countries at that time.
The few people who know the inside story know that Silves Freeman's words are true, because the results of the Philadelphia experiment were witnessed by many eyewitnesses at the time.
"Later, we proved that in quantum entanglement, things can travel not only through space, but also through time."
"Time travel? Could it be that your country has secretly changed history? The audience teased.
"At the last meeting, a young scholar from Huaguo explained it very well." Sylves Freeman said and cast his gaze at Zhao Kang in the audience, which contained praise and appreciation. "Parallel universes. We did try to go back in time, and we succeeded, but the world of the past and the world we have now are not the same world, because after we went to the past, we did something in the world that was already in the past, and when we came back, those things did not appear in the current world. ”
