208 Vice Admiral
With only a few lectures in three years, this working time is really easy, and the only thing that makes Ma Whistle hesitate is that the commute is a bit long - thousands of hours.
Now that there are no planes, it is not easy to travel from the interior of North America to the UK, and a lot of time is spent on the road, although there are many things you can do when you take a car or boat, such as reading and writing books, but there will still be a lot of waste.
So before agreeing, Ma Whistle haggled a little before becoming a professor of physics at Cambridge University.
The Department of Physics at the University of Cambridge welcomed him and held an induction ceremony.
Ma Whistle gave a speech at the ceremony, which was mainly in general terms, but of course there were more specific ones.
For example, the calculation of the Loch limit.
He just read some articles written by the French scientist Édouard Loch a few days ago, and realized that Loch may be trying to calculate the Loch limit, but has not yet calculated it, so he decisively cut off Hu and directly gave the calculation process and results in this speech.
Although this achievement cannot be compared with the two laws of thermodynamics, its exquisite physical ideas and profound mathematical skills, coupled with the ability of the podium of the horse, still made the physicists present admire the five-body five-body ground.
Of course, the whistle also gave Loshi a consolation prize, saying that he was "inspired by him" and "did a little follow-up".
The Loch people sat at home, and the "award" came from the sky, and I don't know how they felt.
In another example, Ma Whistle proposed that Cambridge University build a laboratory.
Universities in this era generally lacked decent laboratories, and the University of Cambridge was no exception.
Ma Whistle knew that this was a problem, and that physics would become more and more demanding for experiments in the future, so he mentioned it.
But it's just a casual mention, after all, it can't be built in a short time, and it will go even further to come up with results.
After the induction ceremony, Ma Sentry went to visit Vice Admiral Robert Fitzroy, a meteorologist recommended to him by Prince Albert.
He was accompanied by Charles Darwin.
Darwin was called because he had been friends with General Fitzroy for many years.
When Darwin traveled around the world on the Beagle, Fitzroy was captained.
After the three of them met, they had an exchange.
After a brief encounter, the horse whistle soon discovered the fact that General Fitzroy, though a meteorologist, was also an ardent Christian.
When Darwin made a brief mention of The Origin of Species, which he was working on, Fitzroy unceremoniously criticized his old friend, making Darwin humorously stop talking about the subject.
At this time, no one would have imagined that in the future, when Darwin published this book, Fitzroy would have a nervous breakdown and commit suicide.
Leaving aside the topic of religion, the conversation was quite pleasant.
General Fitzroy: "I've learned about your weather forecasting plan, and I have to say that it's a great idea, one that will facilitate people's lives, and one that makes military sense." ”
Weather and military are inherently closely linked, especially for the Navy.
As a high-ranking military officer and meteorological expert, it was only fitting that Fitzroy should be in charge of the meteorological office.
"But there are some problems, such as meteorological instruments, I think the current meteorological instruments are not enough to meet the needs of weather forecasting. ”
Ma Whistle smiled: "General Fitzroy, it may be a little offended, but I still have to say that your news is a little behind, and the meteorological instruments are no longer a problem now, more advanced barometers, hygrometers, anemometers, rain gauges...... It's all been invented. ”
Fitzroy was stunned: "Who invented it?" When? ”
"Me, last month." The horse whistle said, and then took out a few instruments from the suitcase, "I have some with me, General Fitzroy, you can take a look." ”
Fitzroy took the instrument, and after a little inspection, the eye of a meteorologist made him realize that the horse post was right, these meteorological instruments were not the type he used in the past, and had become more advanced and efficient.
Looking at the instrument in his hand, and then at the horse sentry sitting in front of him, General Fitzroy was deeply shocked and speechless for a long time.
Ma Whistle was a little embarrassed: "Actually, it is a slight improvement to the instruments of the past, but with these, combined with the telegraph and the necessary personnel, the needs of weather forecasting should be satisfied." ”
Darwin smiled and said, "Captain, Sir Whistle is such a genius, incredible creations are as simple as breathing for him, I think you will slowly adapt to it in the future." ”
Still amazed, Fitzroy looked at the horse whistle and said, "Frankly, I was quite skeptical of your achievements in other fields...... Until now, you have come to familiar territory with me. ”
As Ma Sentinel said, the conditions for weather forecasting are in place, and the establishment of the meteorological office is also a logical step.
Fitzroy, as the head of the meteorological office, began to organize the publication of weather forecasts. He has full authority over military-related matters, and the weather information for the people is released by Ma Sentinel.
Of course, the meteorological instruments are not for nothing, and these advanced instruments are exchanged for exclusive reporting rights from the Meteorological Office.
For this purpose, Ma Whistle specially acquired a penny newspaper in London that was established less than two years ago, and the penny newspaper that followed the trend was not well managed and was on the verge of bankruptcy, and the acquisition did not cost a few dollars, but it should have all the configurations, personnel and equipment.
After buying the newspaper, Ma Whistle changed its name to the Daily Mail, adjusted its business strategy, and featured exclusive weather forecast information as the newspaper.
Many people have started to subscribe to the Daily Mail for a long time to get information about the weather, bringing the dying newspaper back to life.
Later, Horse Whistle invited Dickens to serialize it in the Daily Mail, set in Apache.
As the top of the top stream, Dickens's manuscript fee was quite expensive, in fact, Ma Whistle paid him a lump sum of 2,000 pounds, and it is expected to pay another 8,000 pounds or so in the future.
But compared to the gains, the 10,000 pounds is completely negligible.
This made the Daily Mail take off directly, quickly became popular, and made the British people know more about Apache and have a good feeling.
It is foreseeable that with the help of Dickens's huge influence, the resulting public opinion and political orientation will gradually be transmitted to the whole world......
Perhaps one day people will sympathize with the Indians as deeply as they do for the Jews, even if the Indians have long since escaped their pitiful situation.
The success of the weather forecasting project allowed the horse whistle to gain the friendship of General Fitzroy and officially connect with the British military.
Like most people, Fitzroy admired Horse Whistle's extraordinary creativity and wanted him to come up with something awesome for himself.
For a general, what such a thing is, it goes without saying.
"Sir Whistle, I wonder if you can improve our weapons - like we did with weather instruments?" He asked the question.
