Xueba's life simulator

Chapter 198 New Developments in Research
"Tch, don't think I didn't see you giggling just now." Shi Menglin's companion also replied unwillingly, "You just laughed because you were reading the notification in the group, do you like this? Professor Zhou? What's so embarrassing, I like it too, who doesn't like such a person. "

Shi Menglin knew what her companion was talking about. It was more like a fan's liking for an idol. In fact, it was more of admiration. But what about her liking for Zhou Ming?
What about yourself?
I like him like my sister likes my brother?
Or is it the student's liking for the teacher?
Or is it fans' love for idols?
The words of her companion brought Shi Menglin's mind back to Zhou Ming. In the end, after thinking about it, she didn't know what kind of liking she had for Zhou Ming.

"Are you thinking about Professor Zhou again? You are more obsessed than I am. Why didn't I know that you cared so much about Professor Zhou? I didn't hear you say it. But it's true, the difference between a schoolmaster and a schoolmaster The time is always attracted to each other. Then you plan to go to Huaguo University of Science and Technology for the postgraduate entrance examination in the future?" Seeing Shi Menglin's performance, Shi Menglin's companion said to her again.

"I haven't told you this before. When I was in my third year of high school, uh... how should I put it, I was a bit rebellious for some reasons. I didn't like studying very much for a while. Then my dad found me a tutor. Teacher..." When Shi Menglin said this, the companion beside her had already guessed what happened next.

"So, the tutor your dad is looking for is Professor Zhou?" Shi Menglin's companion looked at Shi Menglin in surprise, and asked her with his mouth open.

"Well, he taught me for a semester." Shi Menglin nodded.

"I'll go, you didn't leak a word about this kind of thing before, and you didn't tell us.

At that time, Professor Zhou was still studying at Jinling University of Technology, right?

Your family doesn't seem to be short of money. How could they find a student from Jinling University of Technology if they hired you a tutor?And it just so happens that it is Professor Zhou.

But I didn't expect Professor Zhou to be a tutor before?

When I saw a person answering a question about Professor Zhou on Quora before, he mentioned that Professor Zhou once taught him as a tutor. At that time, neither I nor the people in the comment area believed it, and he also photos or something.

And when you were in your third year of high school, wasn't that the second half of the year before and the first half of last year?Is it true that Professor Zhou completed all these achievements in one year as he said on the Internet?

Also, did anything happen to you later? "

As soon as this companion heard Shi Menglin say that Zhou Ming had actually been her tutor, her heart of gossip burned like a rising flame, and she had automatically filled in the plots of some TV dramas and novels she had watched before. So he hurriedly chatted with Shi Menglin about Zhou Ming.

And Shi Menglin's companion not only looked expectant, but also looked at Shi Menglin with an expression that you know when he said the last sentence.

Shi Menglin didn't tell his roommates about this before, because he was afraid they would ask questions.

"Fuck you, do you think you're reading a romance novel? You're still engaging in a teacher-student relationship." After hearing the last sentence from his companion, Shi Menglin said angrily, and finally began to explain to his good best friend one by one. .

"When I heard that he was an undergraduate student at Jinling University of Technology, I really disdain him.

However, after some contact with him, I realized how powerful he is, and I don't know why he was so awesome that he was admitted to Jinling University of Technology.

According to him, it was because he was really a rookie before that he was admitted to such a university.

It's just that I got the hang of it later, I learned new things very quickly, and I was able to experience the fun from learning, so I also fell in love with learning.It may be because learning can make his body produce substances such as dopamine, serotonin and endorphins that can make people feel happy.

As for how my dad invited him to be a tutor, it was because my dad knew one of his teachers and was recommended by that teacher..."

Shi Menglin continued walking while talking to his companions, they just kept talking, and when Shi Menglin said about the same, both of them had already walked to the entrance of the cafeteria before they knew it.

"Then have you met Professor Zhou's girlfriend? How is his girlfriend?" The companion continued to ask Shi Menglin.

……

This year's September NO.15 is Thursday, but it is also the Mid-Autumn Festival. Due to the adjustment of the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, the holiday time is NO.15, NO.16 and NO.17, that is, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, NO Sunday of .18 is going to work.

Although this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is said to be a three-day holiday, two of them were moved over from weekends, and another day must be made up.

Zhou Ming was a little puzzled, what kind of holiday is this?It's better not to adjust the rest.

But Zhou Ming didn't go back this Mid-Autumn Festival this year, but went directly to Jingu to find Shen Qingqiu, and played with Shen Qingqiu in Jingu and the capital for three days.

On the evening of the third day, Zhou Ming took the high-speed train from Jingu to Jinling. Anyway, he would come to Jinling tomorrow. If he went back to Luzhou directly, it would be dark by the time Luzhou arrived.

Then he had to go to Jinling by car the next day. In order to avoid this trouble, Zhou Ming went directly to Jinling first, and returned to Luzhou after finishing the Jinling matter.

Just as Zhou Ming was sitting on the seat by the window, emptied his head, and looked at the farmland, mountains and houses flying by outside the window, a phone ringing drew his attention back to the car from the window.

The ringtone that came to mind was Zhou Ming's own cell phone.

He took out his mobile phone and looked at it. After seeing the name displayed on the screen of the mobile phone, he found that someone from the laboratory was calling.

Zhou Ming put on the Bluetooth headset and pressed the answer button.

"Professor, it was successful. We followed the ideas and experimental methods you provided, and we succeeded in two experiments in the past few days of the Mid-Autumn Festival."

After Zhou Ming connected the phone, there was a burst of excitement over there.

The person who spoke at this time was Zhang Yongliang, who was now an associate professor at Huaguo University of Science and Technology.

Zhang Yongliang graduated from Luzhou University of Technology with a major in biotechnology in 2007, and then obtained a doctorate in science from Huaguo University of Science and Technology in 2012 with a major in biochemistry and molecular biology, and stayed in Huaguo Science in June of the same year Working at the School of Life Sciences of the University of Technology, he has engaged in postdoctoral research and served as a special associate researcher.

Because of his positive working attitude and self-motivated heart, Zhou Ming submitted an application for an associate professor to his superiors when he first started school, and the superiors also planned to introduce excellent talents to Huaguo University of Science and Technology. He is employed as an associate professor in the School of Life Sciences.

Before joining Zhou Ming's scientist studio, his main research direction was the structure and function of biological macromolecules. His main research content was the molecular mechanism of the coordinated regulation of cyanobacterial carbon and nitrogen metabolism and the structure of important protein complexes related to cyanobacterial metabolism. scientific research, as well as structural and functional studies of important membrane transport proteins in bacteria.

Later, after Zhou Ming dragged him to his scientist's studio, this Zhang Yongliang also changed the content of his research and fully obeyed Zhou Ming's command.

"Successful? Which experiment was successful?"

What Zhang Yongliang said was nonsense, and Zhou Ming was confused. He provided them with a lot of ideas and experimental methods, and Zhang Yongliang was responsible for conducting not one or two experiments at the same time. Which experiment, how could he know what experiment the other party was talking about.

"One is a bacterial transformation experiment. We have accelerated the progress of the experiment and obtained some results through the gene cutting technology and the new cell culture technology you proposed before.

The modified batch of bacteria can reproduce and amplify by using solar energy and available nutrient resources, so that we only need to store a small amount of bacteria during transportation. "

After Zhou Ming asked, the voice on the opposite side began to explain the content of the first experimental result to Zhou Ming.

"What available nutrient resources are available for this batch of bacteria to reproduce and amplify?"

Zhou Ming asked again, he put on the bluetooth headset while asking, and someone around him glanced at him.

At this time, Zhou Ming had already realized that he would have to accompany a special car and driver when he went out in the future. If there were some confidential matters to be discussed on the way, it would be really inconvenient to talk on this train.

After Zhou Ming finished asking, the other end of the phone continued to talk about the results of this bacterial transformation.

The results of this experiment can carry a small amount of bacteria to replace some other heavier objects when the spacecraft is sent to the sky, whether it is space or an alien planet.

In addition to low cost and high benefit, carrying a small amount of bacteria can further improve the safety of astronauts, because traditional non-living solutions often require a large number of redundant mechanisms and additional physical systems.

At the same time, the diversity of biology itself is also a great advantage.

There are probably three types of microorganisms in the biological kingdom used for aviation purposes, namely bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotic cells.

"You said two experiments were successful, but what about the other?"

After Zhang Yongliang on the other end of the phone introduced the experimental situation of the bacterial transformation to Zhou Ming, Zhou Ming asked them.

"Nuo, tell me." Zhang Yongliang's voice on the other end of the phone, but soon the speaker's voice changed, it seems to be a different person, "Professor, our second successful experiment is about mycelium. Material's..."

Mycelium, the root-like structure of fungi, is not only stronger than concrete, but also has a number of surprising functions.

In addition, the fungal material is also a natural flame retardant, an excellent insulator, and will not release toxic gases. Its various functions can not only make it work well on a planet where the temperature at night can reach minus 73 degrees Celsius. For protection, melanin-rich fungi are also able to absorb radioactivity, creating radiation-blocking structures.

For example, on Mars, it is not like on the earth. The atmosphere and magnetic field on the earth can already block most of the radiation. However, the atmosphere on Mars is thin. Without the protection of the magnetic field, it will always be exposed to radiation. .

Fungi rich in melanin that can produce radiation-blocking structures can play a very good role in radiation protection.

Moreover, because the distance between Mars and the sun is farther than that of the earth, the temperature on the surface of Mars is also lower than that on the earth. In addition, the atmosphere of Mars is thin and dry, and its thermal insulation performance is poor. The temperature difference between day and night can reach about 100°C.

Near the Martian equator, temperatures can reach 20°C during the day and drop to -80°C at night.

At the poles of Mars, the temperature is even lower, reaching as low as -139°C.

The research on mycelium materials has a very important relationship with the construction of Mars bases. In addition to these advantages, it is also an excellent material for the construction of Mars.

As long as a flexible material shell with mycelium spores and dry materials is used when building a Mars base, at that time, as long as water from the earth or Mars and heat are added to the shell, the spores can wake up and eat As raw material is dropped, the mycelium releases oxygen, thereby causing the expansion of the mycelium-enhanced framework.

Once the mycelium has consumed all their ingredients, they go back to hibernation.

If repairs or additions to the structure are required, the mycelium can be reactivated with more ingredients, water and heat.

Moreover, mycelium can also increase the regolith of Martian rocks. Mycelium mixed with Martian surface rocks can make it a more elastic and resilient building material.

However, even with Zhou Ming behind the wheel, building a base on Mars is not something that can be accomplished in the short term.

After obtaining this information, Zhou Ming praised them a lot. As for whether the research results of this time can be published, it depends on the above-mentioned ideas.

A scientist's studio set up by a country like this may involve state-secret top scientific research results. Even if researchers want to publish, they have to submit an application to the above.

Otherwise, the above will provide you with financial and human support in all aspects, is it possible that the achievement is to benefit the world and make you famous?
Therefore, Zhou Ming didn't say anything else, and quickly hung up the phone.

Anyway, even if it can be published, the first authors will naturally be those who did the research, but the corresponding author must write Zhou Ming's name.

When Zhou Ming arrived at Jinling South Station, it was already dark outside.

Not far from Jinling University, Zhou Ming found a hotel with a decent environment.

After making a video call to Shen Qingqiu and his family in the evening, Zhou Ming called Li Mingzhi again and asked him about the postgraduate and doctoral students who had changed supervisors that he had brought to his attention.

And Li Zhizhi's reply is that there are indeed such graduate students in mathematics recently, but there are no good seedlings. If they really want to come here, they will definitely not satisfy Zhou Ming, so Li Zhizhi didn't tell Zhou Ming about this. matter.

"Sigh, I don't know if it's just this time that the task time of the life simulator has become longer, or if every time you want to complete the task in the future, it will be longer to the unit of years.

If this is the case, then I have continuously obtained my own knowledge in the simulated world through simulation, and then accelerated the development of world technology through the acquired knowledge, and obtained the scientific knowledge of the simulated world cash again. So easy to achieve.

Since the number of simulations is limited, we can only find ways to increase the length of each simulation.

Accidents can only be ruled out. This kind of situation is unpredictable and can only be avoided after it happens. Don't waste time thinking about it before it happens.

In this case, the only way to increase the length of the simulation is to increase the lifespan of oneself in the simulation world. "

After finishing the call with Li Mingzhi, Zhou Ming began to think about the life simulator again.

Thinking of the end, he didn't show any happy expression, but sighed again.

"Sigh, I don't know if I in the simulated world will follow my current thinking."

Zhou Ming thought again that his idea was not a worrying idea.

But after using the life simulator so many times, Zhou Ming already knows that every time he simulates, he in the simulated world has independent thoughts, and he is the independent self after losing the life simulator.

Since he is independent, it is very likely that in the future he will take a different path from the one he imagined now due to various reasons.
