Beili Country, Science and Technology Division!

Director, Deputy Director and Edward. Witten sat on the couch.

The two directors were thrilled that their country had finally produced another top scientist.

In the past few years, the top scientist has been Yang Zhenning.

They thought that when Yang Zhenning was old, they could rest assured.

But I didn't expect Ye Fei to come out again.

Ye Fei, whether it is talent, potential, or ability, is much more terrifying than Yang Zhenning.

Ye Fei pressed them, they were all out of breath, and they wanted to deal with Ye Fei, but there was no way.

All right now, Edward. Witten appeared.

Edward. Witten's M theory made him a scientist comparable to Einstein in one fell swoop.

The director smiled in his heart: "With Ye Fei's ability now, he can't compare to Einstein." ”

"Even if he develops a quantum computer and the metaverse, it can't be compared."

"Because these are all applied research, they are developed based on the theories of their predecessors."

"The status of the scientific community has not yet reached the achievement of Einstein."

"Ye Fei's status in the scientific community can only be regarded as the third echelon."

"And Edward. Witten is now considered the first echelon. ”

"So, in terms of ability, Edward. Witten is much stronger than Ye Fei. ”

In physics, theoretical physicists have a stronger position than applied physicists.

For example, Einstein and Newton were theoretical physicists.

Because the theories put forward by theoretical physicists can develop a lot of technology.

Without theory, there is no application.

Theory is the core of science and the foundation of science.

The Director looked at Edward. Witten, said with a smile: "Mr. Witten, may I ask what effect will the M theory have if it has been proven successful?" ”

Edward. "There are many roles, and the most important ones are two. ”

"One." Edward. Witten raised his right index finger and said, "It can simulate the development of the universe, thereby helping the development of astrophysics." ”

"Two." Edward. Witten raised the middle finger of his right hand and said, "It can help prove the ultimate theory of physics, so as to promote the development of theoretical physics." ”

"Whether it is the development of astrophysics or the development of theoretical physics, it is very helpful to physics."

When the two directors heard this, their breath was a little short.

They understood Edward. The meaning of Witten's words.

A lot of theoretical knowledge in physics is discovered from the universe.

Especially in recent years, many physicists have discovered many physical theories based on natural phenomena in the universe.

Therefore, helping the development of astrophysics is very helpful to theoretical physics.

And with theory, there can be application.

Not to mention the ultimate theory of physics.

Whoever can prove the ultimate theory of physics will help to find the deepest explanations for understanding the nature of the universe, unify the various theories of physics, advance technology and science, and advance human culture and philosophy.

The director asked eagerly, "Does it help with controlled nuclear fusion?" ”

Edward. Witten smiled faintly and said, "Naturally, it helps." ”

"The study of controlled nuclear fusion is mainly about particles."

"And the ultimate theory of physics is very helpful for particles."

"If the ultimate theory of physics proves successfully, particles will no longer be a problem, and controlled nuclear fusion will be developed in a very short time."

When the director heard this, his heart was surging.

The role of controlled nuclear fusion is even greater than that of the metaverse and quantum computers.

Whoever masters energy is in control of the world.

And controlled nuclear fusion is energy, or is it a continuous source of energy.

The director and the deputy director glanced at each other, and the deputy director nodded slightly.

The Director looked at Edward expectantly. Witten, said, "Edward. Mr. Witten, what are your next research plans? ”

Edward. Witten said: "In the past, it has always been around the M theory, and there is no research in other research directions. ”

"But now that M theory has been proven, a lot of research can be studied."

"Some of these studies are derived from M theory, some are a continuation of M theory, and some can be helped by M theory."

The director asked, "Is there any consideration for the ultimate theory of physics?" ”

"Naturally!" Edward. Witten glanced at the director and said, "This is the hardest study of all the studies I'm going to study." ”

The director's heart was like a drum, and his eyes lit up as he looked at Edward. Witten, asked, "Edward. Mr. Witten, if you were to lead the research on the ultimate theory of physics, how long would it take you to come to terms with it? ”

Edward. Witten frowned slightly, his eyes flickering.

The Director and Deputy Director look at Edward. Witten was thinking, and they didn't bother Edward. Witten.

For a long time, Edward. "If there is enough money and talent, I need ten years," Witten said. ”

The director clapped his hands excitedly and said, "Okay, Edward. Mr. Witten, I will apply to the above, and you will be in charge of the research on the ultimate problem of physics, and you don't need to worry about funding and talent. ”

"As long as the above agrees to this plan, I will do my best to get the maximum amount of funds and talents for you."

"And, I think the above will approve this plan soon."

"After all, with what you've accomplished today, the above would be happy to let you study the ultimate puzzle of physics."

The director knows that the ultimate problem of physics is very difficult, and it can be proved in ten years. Witten can do it, but the rest of the people can't.

The director was excited, and said: "It will take ten years to prove the ultimate problem of physics, which can greatly help the research of controlled nuclear fusion." ”

"As long as controlled nuclear fusion is studied......"

When the director thought of that scene, his heart boiled.

"What metaverse, what quantum computer, after controlled nuclear fusion comes out, these technologies are all on the sidelines."

"And don't try to catch up."

"We have the ultimate theory of physics, and you don't."

"Even if you work out controlled nuclear fusion, it will be thirty or forty years away."

"At that time, we relied on controlled nuclear fusion, and we had already laid out the premise in the energy field, and it was impossible for you to get involved."

Xia country, the great northwest, in the no-man's land!

There are no plants on the loess all over the ground.

In this piece of yellow earth, there is a building complex covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters, and all the buildings in the complex are one-story bungalows without any floors.

The perimeter of the complex is surrounded by a tall stone fence with only one three-meter-wide exit.

At the exit stood two rows of young men in camouflage uniforms and steel helmets, who looked around vigilantly.

At a distance of 100 meters, three wild wolves squinted at these young people, and the corners of their mouths showed sharp teeth that flashed with cold light.

In the distance, there are snow-capped mountains, eagles flying above the snow-capped mountains, and karmic deer and bison on the mountainside.

No man's land is not suitable for human habitation due to its harsh environment, but it is very suitable for wild animals.

No man's land is a no-go zone for humans and a paradise for wildlife.

Many extinct animals can be seen here.

In the distance, two fuel tankers and three pickup trucks came quickly and stopped at the entrance of the complex, and then two young men came forward to check.

The driver gave the documents to the two young men, who looked at the driver's appearance against the documents, and then the two got into the car to check.

After a few moments, the two youths gave the driver their documents and waved their hands to let them go.

After the driver put away his documents, he started the car and drove into the complex.

These are two water trucks and three carts loaded with food.

There is no water or vegetation in the no-man's land, so all water and food have to be brought in by the outside.

Backbite! Backbite! Backbite!

Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded in the complex.

The young man sitting in the passenger seat of one of the fuel tankers heard this voice and looked around in a bit of panic.

The middle-aged man who was driving the car in the driver's seat next to him said calmly: "Don't panic, this is a normal thing, this alarm will sound once or twice a month." ”

The young man asked in Qinghai dialect, "Master, what is this siren for?" ”

The middle-aged man said, "Does Academician Ye Fei know?" ”

The young man shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know." ”

The young man's family is in a very poor place in a remote area, and the poor family has nothing to eat, so he and his brother share a pair of pants, and whoever goes out will wear pants, and stay at home bare-legged when they don't go out.

Naturally, he doesn't have a mobile phone or computer, and he has no communication with the outside world, and he doesn't know anything about the outside world.

In his cognition, the fastest means of transportation is a car, the best food is white flowers and fat, and the most beautiful woman is the village flower in their village.

The happiest thing is to drive during the day, go home to eat fatty meat, and sleep with the village flower in your arms at night.

Therefore, Ye Fei's name is also the first time he has heard of it.

The middle-aged man glanced at the young man and said, "You melon baby, even Academician Ye Fei doesn't know." ”

"Master, Academician Ye Fei? Is this a personal name? How is his name four words? ”

The middle-aged man said: "His name is not four words, his name is Ye Fei, and academician is his title." ”

"Master, what is a title?"

Middle-aged man: "......"

After a while, the middle-aged man said: "This alarm sound is Academician Ye Fei doing an experiment, and every time they do an experiment, the alarm will sound." ”

"I've heard that this experiment is dangerous, and the siren is to raise everyone's vigilance."

In the middle of the complex, there is a tall factory building covering an area of more than 1,000 square meters, where an experiment is being carried out.

In the middle of the factory, there is a tall machine with many wires connected to the machine.

Around the machine, there are also many spider-legged machines, filling cans of fuel into the machine.

Around the machine, there are many people in protective suits busy.

Ye Fei was also wearing a protective suit, looking at the machine and the surrounding researchers with his hands behind his back.

At this time, a researcher walked up to Ye Fei and said, "Dean, the fuel has been filled." ”

"The data has been entered!"

"Hmm!" Ye Fei nodded slightly and asked, "How many times have you checked it?" ”

Due to the danger of this experiment, the slightest mistake will blow up the bones of all creatures within a radius of hundreds of thousands of meters.

Therefore, after everything was prepared for each experiment, Ye Fei would ask them to check it at least three times in case there was any omission.

"Four times!"

Ye Fei nodded slightly, then took a deep breath, clenched the fist of his left hand behind his back, and said, "Let's start!" ”

At the beginning of each experiment, it was as if everyone was gambling with their lives.

As the person in charge, Ye Fei needs to be responsible for everyone and let them complete the research alive.

Therefore, his psychological pressure is the greatest among all the people present.

This experiment is also a gamble with his life, Ye Fei doesn't know what the future holds, he only bets, bets that they can succeed, and bet that they can survive.

"Yes!" The researcher said.

Immediately, the researcher departed to direct the start of the experiment.

Ye Fei looked at the machine and said in his heart: "In the past six months, we have conducted a total of more than a dozen experiments. ”

"These dozen experiments allowed us to overcome seven technical difficulties."

"Today's experiment is one of the most difficult techniques of all experiments, and one of the most dangerous."

"Nuclear fuel co-chain."

Nuclear fuel is formed when multiple fuels are poured together.

The fuel filling sequence is also explained.

The sequence and measurement of the different fuel primings are defined according to theoretical studies.

All fuels collide together, creating a chain reaction and releasing different energies, which is the nuclear fuel co-chain.

If there is a slight difference in the pool, the experiment will fail, and the nuclear fuel will explode.

Ye Feixin said: "The nuclear fuel co-chain is the first dangerous technical difficulty, and there are five more dangerous technical difficulties in the future. ”

"As long as all these technical difficulties are cleared, there will be no dangerous experiments."

"We can study the rest of the experiments with confidence, and we will no longer be afraid like this."

Ye Fei shook his head in his heart: "It feels really bad to gamble......"

With Ye Fei's order, the experiment began, and many researchers were controlling the experiment in their respective positions.

As the experiment began, some researchers conveyed a number of passwords.

"The first fuel bunker is activated!"

"Secondary fuel bunker activated!"

“……”

"Level 6 fuel bunker activated!"

"The fuel tank is activated!"

Ye Fei nodded slightly: "Very good, the first step was successful." ”

Ye Fei said: "Check the order of the fuel tank!" ”

"Yes, Dean!"

After a few moments, one of the researchers said, "Checked, no problem!" ”

Ye Fei said: "Ignite the fuel tank!" ”

"Level 1 fuel bunker ignited!"

"Level 2 fuel bunker ignited!"

“……”

"Level 6 fuel bunker ignited!"

"The fuel tank is lit!"

Ye Feixin said: "The following is the last step, and it is also the most dangerous step, success or failure in this move!" ”

Ye Fei took a deep breath, suppressed his apprehension, his eyes widened angrily, and said, "Co-chain!" ”

"Yes, Dean!"

"Co-chain begins!"

"The primary fuel bin and the secondary fuel bin are in the same chain!"

"One, two, and three fuel bunkers are in the same chain!"

"One, two, three, and four levels of fuel bunkers are in the same chain!"

"One, two, three, four, and five fuel silos are in the same chain."

"One, two, three, four, five, six, fuel bunker chain."

"All the co-chains are complete!"

Seeing the end of the co-chain, everyone exhaled lightly and smiled on their faces.

The co-chain is the most dangerous step, and the end of the co-chain means that there is no danger.

When the co-chain was carried out, their hearts were in their throats, and they were afraid of an accident in the middle, but they were relieved after the co-chain was completed.

Ye Fei also had a smile on his face, exhaled a breath, and said in his heart: "It's finally over." ”

"The next step is to recycle the common chain, and this step will not be dangerous."

Ye Fei said: "Co-chain recycling!" ”

"Yes, Dean!"

"Six-level fuel bunker co-chain recycling!"

"Five-level fuel bunker co-chain recycling!"

“……”

"The first-level fuel bunker is recycled in the same chain!"

"The co-chain is recycled!"

Ye Fei said with a smile: "The experiment is over, turn off the instrument, and recover the nuclear fuel." ”

Nuclear fuel is highly radioactive and cannot be accessed by humans.

Therefore, all nuclear fuel is recycled for special processing.

Everyone smiled when they heard this, and it was finally over.

Clang~~

Before the researchers could recover the nuclear fuel, a screeching sound suddenly came from the machine.

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at the machine in surprise, and Ye Fei also looked at the machine.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of the bell became more and more dense, and the sound became more and more urgent.

Everyone stared at the machine with wide eyes in horror.

Some people were pale with fright, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

This is a nuclear fuel experiment, and if the nuclear fuel explodes, everyone present will be finished.

Ye Fei was also very nervous, but he knew that it was useless to be nervous at this time.

Ye Fei asked, "Check to see what's going on?" ”

Hearing Ye Fei's voice, the researchers present seemed to have found the backbone of the main body, and followed Ye Fei's order to operate.

Soon, a researcher looked at the computer screen in front of him in horror and shouted: "Dean, some of the nuclear fuel is still in the common chain, and not all of it has been recovered. ”

"What!" Everyone was shocked.

If the nuclear fuel chain is not recycled, then it will be burned.

As long as one part of the fuel is burned, all the rest of the fuel will soon follow.

Moreover, this part of the fuel is out of control and can easily explode.

Ye Fei walked quickly to the researcher who was talking and looked at the computer screen.

The nuclear fuel on the screen is like a furnace, and the energy is increasing rapidly.

When the energy reaches a certain value, it explodes.

And according to the speed of energy increase, the fuel explosion time is only one minute.
