"I just want to know, Mr. Cao, what is the basis for your suggestion, and what have you discovered? Or is there something special about this game? Chang Weisi looked at Cao Ge curiously and asked.

After Chang Weisi asked, Cao Ge did not answer immediately, but glanced back at Da Shi sitting beside him, and found that he was also looking at him with inquisitive eyes.

"Before I say that, I want to ask, General Chang, have you played this game?" Cao Ge looked at the two of them and asked.

"Not yet, it's still in the investigation stage for the time being."

"Okay, then I'll start at the beginning." Cao Ge said.

"I also came into contact with this game because of an accident, because my friend is playing, but I don't particularly like to play games, so I didn't take it seriously at first, but then I heard that this game is played by a group of famous scholars, so I tried to play it at my friend's, I studied computers, so I was more interested in some calculation problems, and the main task of this game The three-body problem happened to be related to calculation problems, so I tried to calculate it, but I didn't get the result, so I wrote it downLater, I came into contact with the scientific frontier and found that many of the players in it are members of the scientific boundary. ”

"So you think the suicide of the scientist has something to do with this game, with this three-body problem." Chang Weisi pondered for a while, then looked at Cao Ge and said.

Cao Ge was silent for a moment, and then decided to reveal something.

"Even if it's not the direct cause, it should have a lot to do with it."

"Committing suicide because of a game, isn't this a bit too ......" Da Shi Qiang on the side suddenly laughed.

However, he hadn't laughed out loud yet, Chang Weisi looked at him very seriously, and so did Cao Ge.

Seeing two such serious faces, Da Shi's muscles that were halfway through laughter slowly retracted again, then coughed twice, and then made up: "Although it is bizarre, it is also possible." ”

"Mr. Cao, you go on." Chang Weisi looked back at Cao Ge and said.

"General Chang, did you know that the Frontier of Science once invited me to join them?" Cao Ge asked a question.

"Yes, you didn't say yes."

"But do you know why they invited me?" Cao Ge asked again.

Hearing this question, Chang Weisi glanced at Da Shi, then looked at Cao Ge and shook his head.

"Although Shen Yufei didn't say it explicitly, I still felt her purpose openly and secretly, and the reason why he asked me to join them was to ask me to help him calculate a problem." Cao Ge looked at Chang Weisi and said word by word.

Chang Weisi frowned, lowered his head slightly to think, and after a while, he woke up suddenly, raised his head and said, "She wants you to solve the three-body problem in this game." ”

"That's right." Cao Ge immediately answered.

"Hiss~"

Although Chang Weisi guessed this, he still couldn't understand what the three-body problem had to do with the scientist's suicide.

"What is this three-body problem about? Is there anything special about it? ”

"It's a math problem, and it's hard." Cao Ge picked up the water on the table, took a sip and said.

"No, Brother Cao, I'm getting more and more confused about what you said." Dashi on the side interjected at this time.

"We investigated the suicide of scientists, you said it was related to the game, we checked, and now you say that it is related to mathematics, but what does this mathematical problem have to do with the suicide of scientists, so as not to say that they can't figure out this problem, so they commit suicide, this is not scientific." Dashi spread his hands and said.

"I don't particularly know the internal connection between this, I just think from the perspective of computer science that there must be a connection between this, and the scientist's suicide case is absolutely inseparable from this three-body game." Cao Ge said.

"The technology used in this three-body game is extremely advanced, and the equipment used to play this game alone requires 50,000 yuan, which is not counting the cost of research and development, but this game is not developed for the general public, only scholars with certain scientific research capabilities know what it is talking about, because the threshold is high, so this game is destined to make no money, so what is the purpose of the developer? That is, what is the purpose of the existence of this three-body game? In order to gather the world's top scientists, what is the purpose of gathering so many scientists, after my observation, all the settings in the game are to find the solution to the three-body problem. So the purpose is obvious, Shen Yufei gathers the world's top scientists to do the same thing regardless of the cost, doesn't this mean anything? Cao Ge looked at the two and said.

After Cao Ge finished speaking, Chang Weisi and Dashi fell into contemplation at the same time, and they were thinking carefully about Cao Ge's words.

Cao Ge didn't disturb them, but sat on the sofa and drank water.

Cao Ge had already decided before he came to tell them something, otherwise it would not be a matter for them to come to him all the time, he still had his own things to do.

But that's the end of it, and if he says more, he will be in danger himself.

It is very likely that he is now under the surveillance of Zhizi, and some things that are inconsequential and do not affect their coming, the Trisolarans may be invisible, but if he says some key things, the Trisolarans will definitely order ETO to get rid of him.

After a long while, Chang Weisi looked up at Cao Ge and said, "Mr. Cao, according to you, this three-body game was developed to solve the three-body problem, right?" ”

"Yes, General Chang."

"You just said that you did the math once, and what was the result?" Chang Weisi asked.

"Yes, I did the math once, but I didn't." Cao Ge replied.

"Mr. Cao, is it also because of your refusal to join the boundaries of science?" Chang Weisi was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked.

Cao Ge glanced at Chang Weisi inexplicably, and was a little surprised, feeling that this Chang Weisi's insight was really keen.

"It has a little to do with this, but the general reason is that my research concept is not compatible with the research concept of the scientific boundary." Cao Ge thought for a moment and then said.

"How?" Chang Weisi let out an "oh", then looked at Cao Ge suspiciously and asked.

Cao Ge looked at the two of them, and then said extremely cautiously: "Although I didn't calculate the result, my intuition tells me that this three-body problem is unsolvable, and I don't want to waste time on meaningless questions." ”

"You're saying this can't be solved, are you?"

"No, no, no, I'm saying that there is no solution to this problem, and there is no solution to it and there is no difference between not being able to solve it." Cao Ge hurriedly explained.

As soon as Cao Ge said this, Chang Weisi fell silent again, and thought for a long time before he understood again.

Then he said kindly to Cao Ge: "Okay, I know, thank you Mr. Cao for your answer." ”

"No, it's all I should do." Cao Ge waved his hand.

"Dashi, send Mr. Cao to the rest area, the meeting will not start for a while, let Mr. Cao go to rest first."

"Yes."

"Brother Cao, please come here."

……………………

Ten minutes later, Da Shi returned to Chang Weisi's office.

"Dashi, you have done a good job in this matter, this Cao Ge is indeed not simple, it should be of great help to us to solve this case, in this way, he hasn't found a job yet, you go back and communicate with him, see if he is willing to come to us as a scientific consultant, which will also help us to carry out our work in the future." Chang Weisi looked at Dashi and said.

"Okay, I'll mention this to him when the meeting is over." Dashi agreed.

"Wang Miao, you continue to stare at it, I think this Wang Miao should also be a breakthrough for us to solve this case."

"Wang Miao, what am I staring at over there? He's now agreed to be our undercover agent, and I'll let you know as soon as there's any news. ”

"Hmm."

"Okay, you go down, the meeting will start in a while, I'll take advantage of the time to sort out my thoughts."

"Okay, Lao Chang, then I'll go see that Cao Ge."

After that, Da Shi walked to the door, but just as he was about to walk out of the office, Chang Weisi suddenly said: "By the way, Da Shi, about the game equipment, you go back and write an application as soon as possible, and then I will let the finance approve the money, since this Cao Ge said this game so mysteriously, it must be studied and studied." ”

Da Shitou didn't reach out and made an "OK" gesture, and then walked out of the office.
