Chapter 76: Kyushu and so on

In Fuxing University, there is a lot of decline.

The steam explosion a few days ago made everyone feel that science is dangerous.

The steam engine is more dangerous.

Will the steam engine of 10,000 years ago also explode at any time?

Or is it that what Li Zhen and the others restored is not a steam engine at all?

Except for the people at the Kyushu Institute of Physics, no one understood what the specific principle of the steam engine was. I don't understand the principle, so I'm afraid, and I'm starting to be afraid of this mechanical monster in my heart.

"Alas, I don't know which school leader pumped his brain and approved such a fund for them."

"Isn't 50,000 dollars in research funding a pure waste of money? Moreover, it also made Qin Enze's classmate disfigured and blind. Not to mention wasting money, it also hurts people. ”

"If you want me to say, the steam engine project should be sealed forever. How can this kind of high-end technology be researched by our peers? ”

"yes, a very powerful thing like a steam engine. I'm afraid that only the bigwigs of the National Academy of Sciences can find clues. The principal really had a hole in his head, and he was expecting a group of teenagers of our age to study this project. ”

"Ancient technology, unless you're super lucky enough to get your hands on a sample. Otherwise, how could it be studied? Everyone doesn't know, how to learn, how to study. There are no samples left by their predecessors, but it's ridiculous that they still want to restore them? ”

"If ancient technology is really so easy to recover, the people of the National Academy of Sciences would have come up with it a long time ago, and they are still waiting for them?"

"This restoration of ancient technology, the first one. You've got to get the samples from the ancients, and you've got to do it to get it. Even if we know the principle, it is not something that people of our time can figure out. We can only hope that the experts of the ancient science will excavate the ancient books, hoping that they can unearth the samples of the ancient era. ”

“……”

This society is sick.

Not only the death of Kyushu, but also the death of the world.

When we have something that our predecessors can learn from, the state of mind of human beings changes. Most can be summed up collectively in one sentence

"The ancients have left us a legacy, let's dig it out and do it, why do I still have to study the principles, why should I bother to think thanklessly about some useless academic questions, I'm crazy?"

The human mind is the most complex. It is constantly changing with the change of the environment.

It's not that the human beings who have been in the new calendar for 10,000 years don't know how to innovate, but their habitual thinking tells them that it's not necessary.

There are philosophers who have analyzed human beings thoroughly. The people of the bitter cold land are generally intelligent and industrious. People in the land of abundance are generally unwilling to use their brains and lazy.

Those who live in bitter cold lands, if you are not industrious, if you do not delve into it. You're going to starve to death.

The person who lives in the land of abundance, he no longer has to worry about food and clothing, he has no need to work hard, there is no need to study anymore. He can be full of thoughts**.

This is a philosopher's definitive view of human nature in the broad sense of the word.

And today's world has finally become the poor man who is defined as a land of abundance.

The ancients 10,000 years ago left them with too much heritage waiting to be discovered. Therefore, in their thinking and worldview, there is no longer such thing as innovation and research.

Their common thinking is that learning basic science well is enough for a lifetime. Because you only need to learn the basics, and if you find an ancient product, you will be able to restore it.

This may not be an era of revival.

It's an era of restoration.

The era of cats and tigers.

Most people do think that way, and too few people can see early that science has gone a different way, and that the world is going in the wrong direction.

There are very few Fuxing universities, but in the Kyushu Institute of Physics, Li really led everyone to change such a way of thinking. Transform solidified thinking into divergent thinking.

The Kyushu Institute of Physics is full of passion.

But this society is not optimistic and does not applaud.

No way, the world is sick.

The dean of the Department of Physics at Fuxing University looked at the teapot sitting on the stove, looked at the steaming heat, and muttered:

"Probably it will fail, right? Or, it's over...... Steam seems to be very dangerous, should students risk themselves? There has been one seriously injured and two lightly injured. If we continue to study and there are accidents among students, how can I afford to take on such a responsibility? Each one is a pillar of the future, and each one is a seedling of the favor of the empire. ”

The director sighed faintly, the look in his eyes was hesitant: "Steam engine, how can a group of teenagers be able to restore it?" A problem that has plagued Kyushu for hundreds of years, do you expect a group of teenagers? If it's not dangerous, maybe we want to encourage such a passion for research. But...... It's going to explode, it's dangerous. ”

After pondering for a long time in his office, the head of the physics department approached the vice president and the school leaders to share their thoughts.

Meeting!

Xu Shenxue came passively, looking at the crowd waiting for the meeting, he turned out to be the last to be notified, and he was a little depressed in his heart: "What's the matter?" ”

The vice principal was a woman surnamed Liu, and Principal Liu said expressionlessly: "Principal Xu, I have a meeting today and want to discuss one thing and reflect on one thing. ”

"What's the matter?"

"On whether the Kyushu Institute of Physics organization will be disbanded, and whether the steam engine project will be stopped. Reflect on the explosion accident, which seriously injured students and caused widespread panic. ”

After speaking, Vice President Liu took a sip of hot water and remained silent.

Xu Shenxue was stunned and uncertain, but he couldn't speak.

The head of the physics department stood up and said in a deep voice, "It's time for this project to stop. Let them study it any longer, and it may cause irreparable damage again. Their first experiment caused Qin Enze to suffer extensive burns and disfigurement all over his body, and he lost his sight in one eye. Li Zhen and Fang Hanxian were burned in a small area. It caused widespread panic among the whole school. They continue to work on it, but what about the second experiment? And what about the third time? Will anyone else be seriously injured? Or did someone even die?

All of this is full of unknowns. Our philosophy has always been people-oriented. Each of them is the future pillar of the Empire, and each of them will grow up in the future. Maybe one day in the future, one of them will finally find a steam engine. But it will never be now, it will not be this group of high-spirited and hot-blooded teenagers.

Science not only needs blood, but also experience, experience, experience, and knowledge reserves. It's not that I don't believe in my big Kyushu boys, but I don't dare to let my Kyushu boys be hurt in any way, in the process of their growth. ”

Xu Shenxue sat on the chair and didn't say a word for a long time, he couldn't refute it.

Those who did not enter the Kyushu Institute of Physics will never be able to feel the fanatical belief that they will not look back after hitting the south wall. Outsiders cannot understand that this group of scientists is ready to give everything at any time.

At the same time, they don't know ...... It's almost there. It's just one step away, it's only one step away.

After a long time, Xu Shenxue said in a hoarse voice: "I saw the breath of the morning sun rising at eight o'clock in the morning from them. There is also the spirit of rising to the challenge. I can't make this decision, I want to encourage them, this is a rare group of pioneers. ”

Vice President Liu stood up and said word by word: "Kyushu doesn't need pioneers. Revival University does not need pioneers. I just want to see this group of children go out healthy and safe, into the institutions of the Empire. Scientific things are their future things, and Kyushu can wait. ”

Vice President Liu's words were a bit tactful.

But Xu Shenxue's heart was deploring - Kyushu couldn't wait.
