Chapter 274: Hello, Electromagnetic Waves!
With Carlo's own relenting, the Italian government also got involved in the king's marriage, and then invitations were sent to the unmarried women of the royal families.
Among them, Germany and Austria, the former Holy Roman Empire, which had the largest number of royal families, received the most letters.
In fact, this is also very easy to understand, on the one hand, Germany and Austria are currently allies of Italy, and on the other hand, there are many original Shinra royal families, whether it is historical background or practical needs, it is good for Italy and the royal family.
As for whether these invitations will be rejected, Italy's thriving performance over the years, as well as the actual situation of Carlo's power, are enough to make people moved. Besides, Carlo is not bad, although he is not an out-of-print beautiful man, but among the young people of the royal family, he is also considered to be a middle-class talent, and his ability is so outstanding, there is no reason to be disliked.
Of course, it will take some time to choose a wife for Carlo, after all, the journey of the royal beauties is different, and the time required is also different.
In Italy, when the king's spouse is busy, in the small town of Marino, near Rome, a teenager is tinkering with his gadgets in the famous electrical experiment center.
"Marconi, I didn't expect you to be ready to start so soon."
The speaker was Mr. Tesla, the world-famous electrical master, the president of the Italian Academy of Engineering, the invited tenured professor of many universities, the invited scholar of the Italian State Grid, and the chief technical expert of Westinghouse.
Of course, in addition to these sufficiently eye-catching titles, Tesla also has a title, and that is Marconi's teacher.
That's right, after the two met at the Pavia Hydropower Station, Tesla was very fond of the teenager named Marconi. And Marconi also admires this world-famous scientist very much, and as for Marconi's parents, they are naturally very willing to see their son interact with Tesla. The relationship between the two deepened rapidly, and it didn't take long for Tesla to accept him and become one of his disciples.
Although Tesla was able to teach Marconi not much time because of time, the teaching of the two top high-IQ people was not as cumbersome as the others.
So under Tesla's teachings, Marconi Jr. grew up rapidly, and he was already able to conduct his own experiments in Marino Labs. Of course, among them, there is more or less Tesla's face in it.
Speaking of the current Marino Laboratory, this is a famous name in the world. Over the years, the experiment has achieved a large number of results, and has become the most desirable place for electric power scientists all over the world.
Sufficient funding, state-of-the-art equipment, and a relaxed environment are the current influence of the Marino laboratory on electric power scientists from all over the world. So over the years, there have been countless electric power scientists who want to work in Marino Laboratories. Of course, since it is a top laboratory, the talents needed are also top-notch, and the people accepted by Marino over the years are all among the best.
The Marino Laboratory was able to grow because its director, Director Argos, was a great contributor, and in the past ten years, he has run a number of power companies and received a lot of money from them. The secret is the combination of scientific and practical, so that companies are willing to invest money in the laboratory.
In the case of Italy's National Grid Corporation, last year alone, the company invested 4.2 million lire in the laboratory, and is one of the big funders of the laboratory.
Don't get me wrong, the State Grid was not affected by anyone, but volunteered to give it after tasting enough sweetness.
In recent years, the State Grid has invested as much as 14.91 million lire in Marino Laboratory, and the feedback of various technologies has allowed the company to obtain a profit of 35.97 million lira.
Speaking of the State Grid, it can be mentioned here that the Italian State Grid Company is currently the largest power company in Europe. It has a capacity of up to 960,000 kilowatts, accounting for two-thirds of Europe's power generation.
At present, the national grid is still not satisfied, and they plan to increase their generator sets to 1.5 million kilowatts. In addition, we are working with Westinghouse and other companies to expand the power of generators and reduce coal consumption.
With the continuous development of enterprises such as the State Grid, the use of Italian electricity will surely be raised to a new level.
Of course, this is all for the future, and Tesla is currently more concerned about the situation of his disciples' experiments.
The two are currently in rudimentary equipment, with exposed wires and an apparently modified wired transmitter. The biggest difference with a wired transmitter is that no one can ignore its long antenna.
Tesla looked at the machine in front of him, looked around, and suddenly asked his disciple in a low voice. "Marconi, have you secretly done experiments before?"
Faced with his teacher's sudden inquiry, Marconi shook his head.
Seeing the honest disciple, Tesla smiled and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, and then asked.
"How sure are you that it would be a great feat if it succeeded?"
"Teacher, I'm pretty sure. I've been intrigued by Hertz since she discovered electromagnetic waves four years ago. ”
"I know this, you pestered me all day, just to understand the situation of electromagnetic waves, I was too busy to notice at that time, and I also explained to you while watching."
"But the teacher explained very thoroughly, and I had a thorough understanding of electromagnetic waves."
The two chatted about the situation of electromagnetic waves, in fact, for the newly discovered electromagnetic waves that have not been discovered for a few years, European countries have not yet discovered their practicability, and they are only limited to understanding.
Speaking of the discovery of electromagnetic waves, in addition to Hertz, there is another person; British physicist Maxwell. He proposed the phenomenon of electric field induction in the sixties, but due to his untimely death, he failed to discover electromagnetic waves, leaving the opportunity to Hertz. As for the practicality of electromagnetic waves now, the younger Marconi plans to try his hand.
The conversation did not end until the rest of the staff had checked the line and equipment.
"Now that the instrument has been checked, it is ready for experimentation."
After receiving the notice from the staff, Marconi showed an excited expression, after all, this was the first experiment he proposed according to his own ideas, how could he not be excited.
Tesla, who was on the side, looked at the disciple's excited expression and patted him. "Marconi, go ahead, it's your experiment."
After receiving encouragement from his teacher, Marconi went to the rudimentary apparatus, which was rudimentary, but it was also the work of him and his teacher.
Walking up to the transmitter, he used Moore code to send a telegram that would affect the world in the future.
A few minutes later, a staff member ran in with a Moore code message.
Tesla took the message, and it was the world's first wireless telegram sent by Marconi.
"Hello, EM!"
"We made it!"
Marconi, who also saw this telegram, jumped up excitedly.
Tesla looked at his disciple with a smile on his face. "That's right, it worked!"
Unlike the teenager Marconi, Tesla, as a top power scientist, knows what it means to succeed in this experiment.
In the future, electronic communications will no longer rely on telegraph lines, so the potential for development is simply limitless.
And all this was done by his disciple who was not yet seventeen years old, and at this moment, he was proud of Marconi.
