Ye Fei went to the major laboratories in his charge to take a look at the research situation in the laboratory.

In general, the laboratories are proceeding in an orderly manner.

The medical device laboratory has recently developed a new medical device, which has been put into use in major hospitals across the country.

Since the establishment of the medical device laboratory, under the guidance of Ye Fei, nearly five medical devices have been developed.

As a result, Xiaguo's medical devices began to shine in some fields, not only for domestic use, but also for export.

The laser laboratory, after finishing the research on ground-based anti-satellite laser weapons, has also begun to take over some other laser research.

It's just that Ye Fei doesn't care much, and he is now at most a name in the laser laboratory.

After walking around, Ye Fei returned to the office!

At this moment, Zhong Wei in the office is researching the topic, Tan Lingling is writing a thesis, and she wants to raise her professional title.

Ye Fei poured a cup of hot water, then sat on the chair, drank tea slowly, and said with a smile: "Sister Tan, why have you worked so hard lately?" ”

Tan Lingling turned to look at Ye Fei, and said helplessly: "You can't do it without work!" ”

"You didn't go to the meeting last time and didn't know about it, the last time the dean specially called us teachers with poor ability to come to the meeting, and seriously demanded that we must improve our ability, otherwise we will be placed in some marginal departments that do not participate in teaching."

"It's okay that I have an organization, but some teachers don't."

"If they don't improve, they may be fired."

"Don't you say we just want to eat at school, why is it so difficult!"

"I used to just think that being a teacher had a stable and decent job, but now I feel unstable."

"Hey......" Tan Lingling sighed, "It's too difficult." ”

Ye Fei said with a smile: "Your family is not bad for money, what are you doing with such a sigh!" ”

"What do you think about those teachers who have no money and can be fired at any time?"

Tan Lingling glanced at Ye Fei and said, "People like you will never be able to understand the pain of people like us." ”

"Learn to use time to hate less!"

"I don't want to be marginalized, so let's try to get my job title up!"

"There are four people in our office, you are a third-level full professor, and Han Dong is a seventh-level associate professor, and he may be promoted to sixth-level this year."

Han Dong follows Ye Fei a lot, and he is the deputy leader of the number theory group, his ability has improved a lot, and his qualifications are enough, so it is basically no problem to be promoted to a sixth-level associate professor.

"Zhong Wei is also a seventh-level associate professor, and only I am still a tenth-level lecturer."

"If I can't be promoted to a level 9 lecturer in three years, I will really be marginalized."

"Moreover, there are too many excellent teachers in the academy now, and it is much more difficult to improve the title than in the past."

"Hey......" Tan Lingling sighed and said, "Forget it, it's useless to talk to you about this." ”

People like Tan Lingling are usually used to being idle, so she suddenly improves her ability, and she can't adapt for a while.

But people are forced out, and if they don't force her, they will never know their potential.

Ye Fei smiled and didn't speak again.

At this time, Ye Fei's mobile phone rang, and he took it out to take a look, a little surprised.

"What did Professor Gao call me for?"

This Professor Gao, called Gao Dingyi, is a professor of physics at Kyoto University of Technology and a master in the field of physics and materials.

When Ye Fei was researching Li-Fi, he once consulted some physics professors at Kyoto University of Technology about photosynthesis.

At that time, I happened to know Professor Gao.

Ye Fei thought in his heart: "I remember the last time Professor Gao told me that he was researching graphene materials. ”

"At that time, Professor Gao also talked to me about graphene and the current plight of Xia Guo in the field of graphene."

Graphene has excellent optical, electrical, and mechanical properties, and has important application prospects in materials science, micro-nano processing, energy, biomedicine, and drug delivery, and is considered to be a revolutionary material in the future, also known as the king of new materials.

The basic unit structure of graphene is the same as that of diamond, which is extracted from carbon.

Because of its transparency, excellent thermal conductivity, high electron mobility and low resistance, and its valuable unique atomic structure, etc.

These characteristics mean that graphene has a fairly wide range of application prospects in various fields, and there are quite a few scientific research directions that require the help of graphene.

Because of this, many scholars assert that our world is about to enter the era of graphene.

In the race for graphene research, various countries have exhausted all their skills, and the European Union and England have grasped the upstream preparation part.

Dongying and Korea have made breakthroughs in the fields of CVD graphene film preparation and electronic components, respectively.

Beili not only masters the upstream preparation part, but also goes one step further on this basis, taking into account the application research and product production and application of the middle and lower reaches, forming its own complete industrial chain.

Since 2014, the global graphene market has shown explosive growth.

In 2020, the global graphene market entered a period of rapid development.

Due to the large number of graphene raw materials discovered in Xia Guo, accounting for about 70% of the total number of discoveries in the world, this provides Xia Guo with convenience in scientific research and product research and development.

At the same time, Xia Guo is also the country with the largest number of patent applications in the graphene industry, and in the field of graphene, Xia Guo has the greatest independent intellectual sovereignty.

Xia is also the world's largest consumer of graphene.

However, graphene is still a big problem.

One is that the mass production scale is small, and the other is that the market demand is not high.

Therefore, lithium batteries made of graphene materials have not set off a technological revolution in the mobile communication industry.

The largest application of graphene is still in anticorrosive coatings.

Xia's dilemma in graphene is that there is a large gap between upstream capacity and that of the European Union and Beiliguo.

Midstream R&D and production are not as good as those in Dongying and Korea.

Only the use of the downstream, Xia Guo has done a good job.

However, only the downstream is strong, and it can only be reduced to a graphene sales market, but there is no most important technology.

You must know that it is always the core technology party that makes a lot of money, not the sales side.

After speaking, Ye Fei answered the phone and said with a smile: "Professor Gao, is there something wrong with me?" ”

"Haha......" Professor Gao laughed, "I can't look for you if it's okay!" ”

Ye Fei smiled: "Professor Gao, you are a busy person, I don't think you will have anything to do with me!" ”

Professor Gao said, "Professor Ye, have you been free lately?" ”

Ye Fei said: "I've been quite idle recently. ”

Ye Fei hasn't had much work recently, and the management of the Latitude Blockchain Research Institute does not need his involvement, and the Meta Blockchain Research Institute has not yet been built.

And he won't interfere too much in the research of major laboratories.

All that remains is teaching work, and he now takes graduate students and hardly attends classes.

Gauss's conjecture was studied, and he handed it over to his number theory group.

Therefore, Ye Fei has been in school recently, and most of the time is drinking tea and reading newspapers.

Professor Gao asked, "How about your research in the field of linear algebra and nonlinear algebra?" ”

Ye Fei said: "It's not bad!" ”

Ye Fei is now mainly studying number theory, but other fields of mathematics will also be studied together.

After all, modern science has developed to this stage, and all disciplines are interdissected.

It is not just one area of study.

Professor Gao said, "Aren't you interested in physics? My recent fullerene research happens to use your linear algebra and nonlinear algebra, will you? ”

Fullerenes are known as carbon onions and are currently the largest natural carbon onions found on Earth.

It also has a nickname called Nano Prince.

Fullerene is one of the most important carbon-containing nanomaterials in recent years because of its unique zero-weft structure.

Graphite is formed by stacking graphene layers composed of six-membered rings.

Fullerenes, on the other hand, contain not only six-membered rings, but also five-membered rings, and occasionally seven-membered rings.

Ye Fei smiled: "Okay, I can go and learn from it." ”

Ye Fei is a researcher of materials, and he knows nine out of ten, but he doesn't know anything.

The study of fullerenes is the study of physical materials.

Ye Fei is very interested in physics, and he is also interested in materials.

"I'll send you the address right away, and call me when you arrive."

"Okay!"

Soon after hanging up the phone, Ye Fei received a message from Professor Gao.

It is in the Kyoto Graphene Research Institute, in the Cuihu Science Park of Kyoto Zhongguancun Science City.

The next day, Ye Fei flew to Kyoto with his suitcase.

After coming to the Graphene Research Institute, Professor Gao led Ye Fei to walk around the Graphene Research Institute and said, "We cover an area of 10,000 square meters here and have about 300 people. ”

Ye Fei nodded, there were only three hundred people in such a big place.

It is mainly scientific research, which cannot be completed by a large number of people, but requires high-quality elite talents.

Of course, there are many talents in Xia Guo, but there are not many people engaged in graphene research.

Moreover, these talents are also distributed throughout the country.

There are only 300 people assigned to the Graphene Research Institute.

In the following time, Professor Gao taught Ye Fei about physics, and Ye Fei provided Professor Gao with help in mathematics.

The two helped each other, but they both learned a lot from each other.

Half a year has passed in a blink of an eye, and the time has come to March 2028!

A lot has happened internationally in the past six months.

The Wi-Fi Alliance and the Li-Fi Alliance are competing for life and death around the world.

The various preferential policies of the two alliances are scattered like snowflakes, and the countries behind them continue to support them.

The effect is very obvious, the Li-Fi Alliance is not only stronger than the Wi-Fi Alliance's technology, but also higher than the Wi-Fi Alliance in various discounts.

From the perspective of future potential, the Wi-Fi Alliance is not qualified to lift shoes for the Li-Fi Alliance.

After all, behind the Li-Fi Alliance are Xia Guo, 5G and the Meta Blockchain Research Institute.

Not only the collision of the two major alliances, but also the collision of other fields of the two countries, and the people of the two countries are also scolding each other like gunpowder on the Internet.

As for Ye Fei, he has long been the center of the whirlpool, the number one public enemy of Beili Kingdom.

This makes people all over the world who don't know Ye Fei know and understand Ye Fei, and Ye Fei is in the news twice in three days in China.

Of course, it's not CCTV news, it's some news from Baidu, Douyin, Weibo and so on.

In foreign countries, Yefei Night Market is often on the news.

No way, it's too well-known.

Graphene Research Institute Rest Area!

Ye Fei sat on the sofa, with a cup of steaming tea on the coffee table in front of him.

Ye Fei sat on the sofa, holding his mobile phone and making a video call with Academician Ning.

Ye Fei said with a smile: "Scold me and scold me, and there will be no less meat, the happier they scold, it proves that they are not long away from the end." ”

Academician Ning said with a smile: "It's really what you said, although the Wi-Fi Alliance developed Wi-Fi 7 some time ago, but compared with our Li-Fi technology, the gap is very large. ”

"This is the Wi-Fi Alliance's last resort, but it doesn't work for us."

"The Wi-Fi Alliance's final result is to file for bankruptcy!"

Ye Fei said: "This world is originally the survival of the fittest, the elimination of the weak, the Wi-Fi Alliance is not comparable to us in terms of technology, and it is not as good as us in policy." ”

"So, they have only one way to destroy."

"Hmm!" Academician Ning nodded: "This also gives us a wake-up call, we can't fall behind, and if we fall behind, we will be beaten." ”

"Especially now, our Xia Kingdom has been forced to go to Liangshan, and we can only move forward, not retreat."

"Otherwise, not only you and me, but the whole country will suffer."

"That's right!" Ye Fei said: "If you fall behind, you will be beaten!" ”

Academician Ning said: "By the way, where are you, it seems that your back is not in Zhonghu University!" ”

"I'm at the Graphene Research Institute in Kyoto."

"Graphene Research Institute?" Academician Ning was stunned and said, "Are you going to engage in graphene again?" ”

Academician Ning knows that Ye Fei is involved in a very wide range, and as far as he knows, Ye Fei is involved in mathematics, lasers, medical devices, computers, and blockchain.

Now it's getting involved in graphene again.

A person's energy is limited, and being able to get involved in three or four fields is already very broad.

And Ye Fei has already set foot in five fields, and each field has done very well, and now he wants to set foot in the sixth field.

"Yes!" Ye Fei nodded and smiled: "I'm very interested in physics, didn't I tell you the last time I did the light synthesis experiment!" ”

"It just so happened that Professor Gao was doing graphene experiments, so I'll learn about it."

Academician Ning frowned and said worriedly: "Ye Fei, a person's energy is limited, and you shouldn't get involved in too many fields." ”

"Especially a genius like you should be deeply involved in mathematics and blockchain, these two fields."

"Even a once-in-a-millennium genius like Albert Einstein only does research in two fields: mathematics and physics."

"In addition, mathematics is only an auxiliary, and the most important thing is to do research in the field of physics."

Academician Ning is very optimistic about Ye Fei's future, and believes that Ye Fei is a person who is expected to win the Fields Medal and the Turing Award.

But life is unpredictable, and the possibility of dying is very high.

Academician Ning has seen too many geniuses, but because of his arrogance and ignorance, he finally died.

Although Ye Fei is not arrogant and ignorant, he has set foot in too many fields, which will distract Ye Fei's energy.

In the end, no field will reach its peak.

Ye Fei smiled: "I know, I'm just interested in physics and want to learn about it." ”

Academician Ning saw that Ye Fei insisted on his own ideas, and said helplessly: "Okay, since you want to learn it, you can do it, but don't forget that your main field is mathematics and blockchain, don't stay in the field of graphene for too long." ”

"I see."

North Beauty, Wi-Fi Alliance, President's Office!

The chairman and Vance sat on the couch, with many empty wine bottles on the coffee table in front of them.

The chairman and Vance held their glasses, blushing.

The chairman said: "Vance, I can't hold on anymore, in the past six months, our orders have become less and less, and we can't make ends meet." ”

"Even though I've cut a lot of business, I'm not cutting business as fast as orders are decreasing."

"Europe and Asia used to be our main markets."

"The European market has lost seventy percent, not to mention Asia, it has lost all of it."

"The Australian market is also about to be lost."

"Now there are only markets in North and South America."

"But with such a small market, you can't make the Wi-Fi Alliance work."

"Moreover, many capitalists, seeing the decline of the Wi-Fi Alliance, want to eat us."

"Who would have thought that the Wi-Fi Alliance, which was at its peak, would be destroyed by a group of Xia people like this."

"Hey......" Vance sighed helplessly.

The current situation was also something he did not expect.

He thought that even if Xia had Li-Fi, the Wi-Fi alliance should be able to hold out for a while.

However, it has only been half a year, and the Wi-Fi Alliance has not been able to hold on.

It's even worse than 4G back then.

Even if 4G has not been completely destroyed until now, it is still running in many countries around the world, and there is still a steady stream of revenue.

For example, most countries in Africa are still using 4G, or even 2G.

But Vance was wrong about Li-Fi not 5G.

The operation of 5G requires the construction of base stations, while the use of Li-Fi does not require the construction of base stations, and only requires a wireless router of tens of dollars to use.

And, after using the Li-Fi wireless router, the network has a very noticeable acceleration.

Because of this, the Li-Fi wireless router has been recognized by people in many countries around the world since it was first released.

Even in countries that don't use Li-Fi wireless routers, people will secretly use Li-Fi routers, and they won't be easily found when they use them.

After all, it's just a small machine installed in the house, and is there anyone going door-to-door to investigate?

Impossible!

In fact, the decline of the Wi-Fi Alliance is not just the emergence of Li-Fi.

Of course, the emergence of Li-Fi is the main reason.

Another reason is that the Wi-Fi Alliance has relied too heavily on Wi-Fi technology in the past, with most of its business running around Wi-Fi.

When Wi-Fi was overrun by Li-Fi, it was very difficult for the entire Wi-Fi Alliance to operate.

June 1, 2028!
