Chapter 215: Chaowen Dao

Dirt Dirt –

With the sound of a whistle, the cruise ship arrived in Calais, France.

"Whew~"

Kelvin let out a long breath, gently brushed the skin of his forehead with his fingers, and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect a board game to make me so obsessed~ It's a pity, it's just the two of us now, if there are two more, it will be more interesting." ”

He has already perceived the social nature of "Monopoly",

Multi-person participation, wider game, can increase interactivity and fun.

Lu Shi said with a smile: "Even the famous Lord Kelvin likes this game so much, so there is no need to worry about its sales in Europe." ”

Kelvin was a little surprised,

"You...... Listen to what you mean...... "Monopoly" was published by you? ”

Lu Shisui introduced Parker Brothers.

Kelvin couldn't help but be amazed, picked up the game packaging again, and found that the designer was indeed "Lu", and sighed: "What a genius." ”

Lu Shi shook his head,

In front of Kelvin, he didn't dare to hold it up.

Kelvin smiled,

"Let's go to the deck and blow the wind, it's still an hour from Calais."

The two of them went to the deck together.

In the afternoon, the sun shines through the clouds on the sea, and the sparkling sea reflects a golden light.

The sea breeze brings a sense of tranquility and comfort.

Looking into the distance, you can see that the castle of Calais is located on the commanding height of the city center, which looks majestic and solemn.

The stone walls shine in the sun, and the vicissitudes and heaviness make people feel awe.

The corners of Kelvin's mouth hooked,

"Professor Lu, when you went to Stockholm this time, did you think about creating works? I've heard of Professor Monson...... Huh-huh...... He's not as generous as I am. ”

Lu Shi was a little surprised,

The other party is a scientist who studies physics, how can he be familiar with Monson?

Kelvin continued: "In engineering competitions, results speak; Measured by liberal arts, works are king. Professor Monsen's "History of Rome" has a very high status in the academic world, and the Swedish Academy of Letters has also been troubled by you, Professor Lu, I am afraid that you will not be able to cope with it. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Shi had a headache,

The boomerang of the war with the Nonots and the Swedish Academy came too quickly,

Perhaps, as Kelvin said,

"Measured by liberal arts, works are king."

You have to write something and gag the other person's mouth.

Lu Shi faced the sea and fell into deep thought.

Kelvin spreads hands,

"I'm just suggesting, if you don't want to write, don't write, anyway, Professor Monson can't do anything to you~"

Lu Shi was speechless,

If the other party knew that he was still carrying the commission of Edward VII, he would definitely not say so.

The two stood for a while in the sea breeze.

After all, Kelvin was too old to stand the cold, and pulled back to the club when he landed.

Unexpectedly, there were two new people in their position just now.

The two seemed to be very interested in "Monopoly", but they behaved very politely, did not sit down to occupy a seat, but just looked down at the game map and discussed in a whisper,

"I feel like the player who moves first will have a greater advantage."

"Yes, the more people who participate in the game, the greater the advantage of being the first to act. So, the game is not well designed, and the latecomer has to be given more money. ”

"Look at this game, the name is "Monopoly", capital comes first, and it is not wrong to have an advantage."

"Ah......h

……

The two of them have a good opinion on "Monopoly".

Kelvin cleared his throat,

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

The two men quickly turned around,

"I'm sorry."

Landtime: !!

He had a shocked expression.

The two in front of me, I haven't seen their photos in physics textbooks,

Albert Einstein, founder of the theory of relativity;

Max Planck, one of the important founders of quantum theory.

They are what Kelvin called "two disturbing clouds in the distance in a clear sky."

Of course, the current Einstein has not yet completed those shocking papers, but only a small role in the physics community, and won the invitation of the Nobel Committee with the papers in the "Annals of Physics".

The corners of Kelvin's mouth twitched,

"Mr. Planck."

Planck's expression was also very stiff, and a layer of fine beads of sweat floated on his smooth forehead.

"Uh...... Thomson...... Lord Kelvin. ”

The two know each other.

Lu Shi looked left and right, and always felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

He coughed lightly,

"Since we all know each other, why don't we sit down and play GWENT...... Ah, no, it's a game of Monopoly. ”

Kelvin: "......"

Planck: "......"

The two still didn't say anything.

Their views differ in the field of physics, but they are not contradictory, and it is not impossible to sit down and play games together.

Albert Einstein coughed lightly,

"That's right, I'm right...... Hmmm......"

He stared at Lu Shi,

"Are you...... Are you the author of The Village Teacher, Lu? The copyright page of the French version has your description and photos. ”

Hearing "The Country Teacher", Planck also cast his eyes,

"Are you Lu?"

Lu Shi touched his nose in embarrassment, nodded and said, "Yes, I am the author of "The Country Teacher". ”

Kelvin on the side also spoke,

"That board game is also a masterpiece of his design."

When he finally spoke, the atmosphere was immediately much lighter.

Lu Shi took the opportunity to beckon a few people to sit down and sit around the map of "Monopoly" together to introduce the rules of the game.

The four of them opened a new game.

Planck had the best luck and rolled the dice to win, one step ahead.

Kelvin chuckled,

"Looks like you're going to win this game. Players who act first are given priority in buying real estate, making it easier to strategize better based on the situation in the game. ”

Planck quipped as he handed over the money to the bank, "Sir, I didn't expect you to have times when you had the same opinion as me." ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the table became a little weird,

“……”

“……”

“……”

Unusual silence.

Kelvin quietly picked up the dice,

Coincidentally, the number voted was the same as Planck's, which led to the failure to buy real estate in the first round and the payment of tolls.

The atmosphere has become even more eerie.

It took a few seconds for Einstein to react and say, "Actually, Lord Kelvin is not completely against wave theory. He believes that the old idea of ether is unacceptable. ”

The corners of Planck's mouth are hooked,

"yes. Lord Kelvin calls for a new view of the ether. ”

That sounds a bit ironic.

Lu Shi doesn't understand,

But Kelvin was very clear, and raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Listen to what you mean, you think I'm mending the seams?" Do you think physics should abandon the ether altogether after Fresnel and Thomas Young's work? ”

Einstein's lips trembled, but he didn't speak after all,

He picked up the dice, rolled a six, and quietly took down the farm.

It's almost dry up over there, and my brother still has the heart to play?

Really Cow X!

Lu Shi asked in a low voice, "What should I do?" ”

Albert Einstein shrugged,

"Normal."

It's completely an expression that is not afraid of big things.

Moreover, Einstein began to think about a question when he entered the Zurich Institute of Technology -

What phenomenon is seen when a person moves at the speed of light.

Therefore, he was also puzzled by the inherent contradictions of classical theory, and it was very helpful to have the privilege of seeing Planck and Kelvin debating.

Albert Einstein muttered:

"This time I went to Stockholm, I really made a lot of money!"

Lu Shi: "......"

Completely speechless.

Einstein smiled and continued: "Professor Lu, you must understand that scholars have always been not afraid of debate. Truth is not afraid of debate. ”

Lu Shi glanced at Kelvin,

The old man is a lot old, and if there is a good one, it is called trouble.

Unexpectedly, Kelvin, who was still very excited just now, smoothed his breathing,

He sat upright, his momentum changed, and his gaze was Lingran, like a knight ready to duel with the enemy at any time.

Lu Shi's worries are purely unnecessary.

Planck went on the offensive,

"In that case, can Lord Kelvin answer a question for me?"

Kelvin immediately responded, "You say." ”

Planck twisted his beard,

"How can the Earth move through an elastic solid that is essentially an ether of light?"

"This ......"

Kelvin was numb.

When he told about "two dark clouds", he said something similar:

"'When atoms move relative to the aether around them, atoms exclude the aether in the space in front of them'. This argument is unacceptable. ”

I didn't expect to be attacked by Planck with the spear of the son and the shield of the attacker.

Einstein muttered: "I just can't answer, that's why I have to discuss~ Mr. Planck, you can't win like this." ”

Planck was suddenly embarrassed,

As a young man, he doesn't talk about martial arts, and he cheats and sneaks up on other people's seventy-seven-year-old comrades.

Is this good?

It's not good.

He said in a mouse: "I mainly study the contradiction of energy equalization, and I am not good at wave theory. ”

Shente Meow's "not good at"......

Lu Shi, such a modest person, shook his head when he heard it.

Kelvin said, "Then you have to talk about quantum theory." How? Has Professor Boltzmann endorsed your work? ”

Planck complained in his heart, and the old man on the other side didn't talk about martial arts.

Boltzmann and Planck actually had a conflict before,

Planck's student Zelmelo wrote an article pointing out a serious flaw in Boltzmann's H-function, which made Boltzmann angry.

This anger lasted for a long time, until Planck reported that he had derived blackbody radiation based on quantum theory, and Boltzmann turned his anger into joy, and regarded Planck as a leader in quantum theory.

It is an open secret that there are many mountains in the academic circle.

Kelvin said, "The study of the problem of blackbody radiation has shaken the theory of energy equalization, right? ”

Planck nodded,

"The easiest way to resolve the contradiction is to deny the conclusion that the energy is equal."

Kelvin snorted,

"With that imperfect quantum theory? Suppose that the thermal motion of a molecule is random and complex, and the energy fluctuations of any atom can be very large, how should its energy be calculated? For example, can kinetic energy and vibrational kinetic potential energy be calculated by quantum theory? ”

Einstein listened with relish, nodding and shaking his head from time to time.

But Lu Shi was stunned,

He looked at Kelvin and Planck,

The two were obviously talking, but they couldn't hear any English words.

The BGM of "Ode to Joy" sounded in my heart.

As a result, Lu Shi's eyes gradually lost focus, and he muttered: "You scientists are really powerful, you can pinch up when you play a game." ”

Einstein unconsciously replied: "Pursue the truth~ I will not regret dying." ”

Lu Shi chuckled and said, "'Although he has died nine times, he has no regrets'? It's a pity that it's not very appropriate, because the previous sentence is 'also good for the rest of the heart'. If you want me to say, you call it 'Chaowen Dao, you can die at night'. ”

This is not difficult to understand in the literal sense.

Einstein said "um",

"If I really get a glimpse into the mysteries of the universe, I will die. Then again, is that sentence from a Chinese classic? ”

Lu Shi: "......"

And there was no answer.

Einstein looked over and found that Lu Shi was frowning and pondering, as if he had thought of something.

He was curious: "Professor Lu, what's wrong?" ”

Lu Shi was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "I know what to write." ”

"Morning Hearing Road".

Is there anything more suitable for the first Nobel Prize than this book?

Moreover, as a short story, the length is also appropriate.

He pulled pen and paper out of the box.

This behavior immediately attracted the attention of three physicists,

They are all fans of "The Country Teacher", and when they saw Lu Shi doing this, they couldn't help but be full of anticipation.

Albert Einstein asked, "Professor Lu, what you want to write is 'Hearing the Tao in the morning, you can die at night'?" ”

Planck was a little confused,

"What? What is the 'pilgrimage of the Tao'? ”

Albert Einstein explained.

Planck and Kelvin couldn't help but look at each other, and suddenly laughed.

Kelvin said: "I didn't expect that, I didn't expect that we quarreled casually, but it could inspire Professor Lu's creation. If it becomes a classic, it will also be a good story in the future. ”

In the opinion of the two scientists, they are just "quarreling",

But in Lu Shi's eyes, it is a discussion of "hearing the Tao, and dying at night".

Planck scratched his head,

"It's better not to die or not to die."

This drew laughter from Kelvin and Einstein.

Subsequently, the three of them approached Lu Shi to see how Lu Shi created.

The book "Chaowen Dao" is also a short story by electrician Da Liu.

In the background, the world's largest particle accelerator is about to start exploring the grand unified model of the universe.

This causes the universe to emerge and vaporize the accelerator.

The risk-breakers told the scientists that the proof of the grand unified model would bring about the destruction of the universe, but did not tell the scientists about the grand unified model because of the "knowledge sealing guidelines".

So, scientists came up with a "best of both worlds" approach:

Let the troubleshooter tell himself the mysteries of the universe, and then let the riskwalker destroy himself.

The Danger Hunters created an "altar of truth" in the desert......

As the name suggests,

Chaowen said!

Lu Shi wrote a beginning casually, and felt that something was wrong,

The name of the particle accelerator is "Einstein's equator".

It is so named because, according to the special theory of relativity, since the earth is rotating, the clock at the equator has a speed that follows the rotation of the earth, and thus travels slower in time than the clock at the pole.

But it's 1901, and there is not even a shadow of special relativity.

What's more, particle accelerators ......

This thing must have appeared later.

Lu Shi scratched his head,

"Hiss......"

People are numb.

Kelvin on the side asked, "Is there any problem, Professor Lu?" ”

Lu Shi said tentatively: "Did you mention atoms and molecules in the discussion just now?" ”

When Kelvin glanced up and down at the land,

"I explain, can you understand?"

Lu Shi waved his hand again and again,

"No, no. You'd better stop talking about it. ”

He looked back at the physics textbooks he had studied before.

The most recent of 1901 was 1897, when physicist Joseph Thomson discovered the electron and its subatomic properties, shattering the long-held assumption that atoms were indivisible.

Let's write about it in this context.

Lu Shi took up the pen and directly changed the background of the particle accelerator, but explored the smallest unit of particles or energy, looking for a unified model of the universe.

As a result, just a few words were written,

"That's not right."

Kelvin spoke.

Planck and Einstein on the other side nodded again and again,

Planck said: "I didn't expect Professor Lu to be a believer in quantum theory, maybe this book will become a prophecy~"

Again, the views of the two sides are different.

Their eyes met, silently clashing in the air.

For a long time, Kelvin said, "I think, even if it is, to follow the basic law of science." ”

Planck shook his head,

"It is precisely because of this that we should be more bold and think boldly and stand at the forefront of science."

Kelvin immediately retorted with full firepower: "Why is Mr. Planck again in this avant-garde tone?" Does the new one have to be right? Professor Ostwald's 'Onlyism' is also very new, but it contradicts quantum theory. Besides, can quantum theory solve the series of problems I just raised? ”

Planck replied, "It seems that Lord Kelvin has not read my recent papers. I have refuted Professor Ostwald's arguments one by one. ”

Kelvin spreads hands,

"You haven't answered me head-on. Can quantum theory solve the series of problems I just raised? ”

Planck said: "Blackbody radiation is not the answer? ”

The two began to quarrel again.

Einstein continued to watch the excitement,

If there were melon seeds, soda, and a small bench, he could sit next to him and watch for a day.

Lu Shi raised his hand,

"Stop! Stop, all of you! ”

Nothing works.

Kelvin: "! @*#¥%……”

Planck: "! @*#¥%……”

Gibberish is not a swear word.

Because the speed of the two of them is extremely fast, coupled with too many professional terms, Lu Shi sounds like gibberish.

In this case, it is simply not possible to create,

But I couldn't go back to the cabin, because writing "Chaowen Dao" required the advice of a physics expert.

He rolled his eyes,

"Declare that I will appear in this book real scientists, especially physicists."

In an instant, Kelvin and Planck fell silent,

They looked at Lu Shi.

Lu Shi smiled,

"I hope you keep quiet, or I may be so upset that I might miss someone. That's not pretty. ”
