Black Technology Research Center

Chapter 303: What a Pity

Let's talk about other things after this is over.

If they don't agree, then I'll have to do it myself, but doing it myself means starting from scratch.

It's not that I can't complete this project without the military's help, but even if I do, there's no way to apply it.

You have to know that this is China, not abroad, and the laws here don't allow individuals to do that kind of thing.

But I believe the higher-ups won't oppose my suggestion, especially since this matter can't be decided by the military alone.

In the end, it still needs the approval of the top leader. Speaking of which, I haven't even met the top leader in person yet.

If everything goes smoothly this time, I should have the opportunity to meet the top leader, right?

This isn't just any meeting, casual conversation and laughter are essential, just thinking about it makes me excited.

Thinking of this, Fang Yuan revealed a lewd smile.

Startling Xiang Lingling next to him, was this guy thinking about something bad?

He wouldn't be thinking about something bad, would he!

Xiang Lingling's face turned red, as if she had thought of something, and she turned her head away, no longer looking at Fang Yuan.

After a while, Fang Yuan came back to his senses.

"Lingling, tell Brother Wang to contact that Zhou Shan from last time and tell him that I agree to that matter from last time!" Fang Yuan said to Xiang Lingling.

"Okay, I'll contact Brother Wang right away!"

Xiang Lingling told Brother Wang about this matter, as for what Brother Wang would do next, she didn't know.

But before long, Brother Wang ran over to find Fang Yuan.

"Boss, they said they're available anytime, as long as you're free, you can go over, but before you go, you need to give them a heads-up, and they'll have someone to pick us up from here."

"Brother Wang, have you heard of this person?" Fang Yuan didn't continue the previous topic, but instead asked this.

"Well, how should I put it? I knew this person when I was in the army. Other than being a bit unapproachable, he has no shortcomings. He's a supernova in the army, a guy with unlimited potential, compared to us, he's like the sun hanging high in the sky." Speaking of Zhou Shan, Wang Ge unexpectedly had a lot to say.

It seems this guy left a deep impression on Brother Wang.

But listening to his voice, he shouldn't be too old, at most not over forty years old, and even listening to Brother Wang's meaning, he might be even younger than Brother Wang.

Speaking like this, he's at most a few years older than me.

To be able to reach this position in the army at this age, listening to Brother Wang's tone, he's quite convinced by this person.

That is to say, achieving such accomplishments without relying on any connections, or even if he did rely on connections, he also has the matching abilities.

As Fang Yuan expected, Zhou Shan came from a military family. He didn't join the army until he was twenty years old, and his life afterward was like he was on steroids. In the boot camp, he impressed everyone with his outstanding performance.

After coming out of the boot camp, it was even more extraordinary. The large and small merits allowed him to be promoted all the way to regimental commander, with the rank of lieutenant colonel. It is said that he will soon be promoted to senior colonel. If he works hard, he may even break the record for the youngest general in China.

You have to know that the current era is different from the past. You can imagine the effort required to achieve this level.

At this time, Fang Yuan developed a strong interest in this guy. He didn't know why, but he smelled the scent of a kindred spirit.

This Zhou Shan is definitely not simple, and looking at his resume, I feel like he's a man full of stories.

… …

Fang Yuan didn't set off to the army immediately.

The research center really needs me here. Not to mention anything else, I haven't even decided on the direction of all the academic research.

The entire research center is like a pile of loose sand fighting on their own. Before determining the direction of all the research, I will not leave the research center.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of these talents' time. It's not that the research directions they have chosen themselves are not as good as the ones I have set.

The most important reason is that these people cannot put all their energy in one direction.

It's like the same amount of strength, the effect of using it in all directions at the same time is completely different from using it in one direction.

What Fang Yuan has to do now is to unite the strength of these people and use it in one place.

This job is really not easy, but Fang Yuan can be considered to have figured out the trick. No matter what, as long as you can come up with something real, these guys will try it no matter what.

However, this real thing must have enough appeal to them, which is Fang Yuan's biggest headache.

Even talents in the same field have different research directions, and some are obviously talents in the same field, but their research directions are very different, making it difficult for Fang Yuan to balance.

In this way, my workload will be much larger, after all, the research center is no longer what it was when it was first established.

There were only a few people, and there weren't so many things I needed to consider.

Now the research center, just counting the number of researchers, has exceeded the hundred mark.

The direction with the most people is mathematics. With the recommendation of several Chinese mathematicians at the Mathematicians' Conference, Fang Yuan established the mathematics laboratory with the largest number of people and the largest scale in this research center.

But to be honest, the laboratory with the smallest input-output ratio is also this one.

Look at the other laboratories, even the computer laboratory that took two years to complete the holographic projection technology is about to have its own output.

Only they are left without any output in the entire research center.

Before, they may have been able to comfort themselves by saying that mathematics is a sacred and inviolable subject.

Now it's not okay, after all, only with output will there be rich returns.

Otherwise, Fang Yuan is not a philanthropist, and even a philanthropist would not spend high prices to support a bunch of "waste".

That's right, the group of guys in the mathematics direction are now in this position.

With Fang Yuan's help, they broke through the previous bottleneck, but fell into a new quagmire.

Fang Yuan can help them get out of the quagmire, but what about the results after helping them once or twice or even more times?

Aren't they still standing still, without any progress?

In that case, it's better for me to do it myself. Why hand over the N-P complete problem to these people to solve?

I still want them to improve and become my real help.

Sure enough, I was too hasty. I gave these guys who had just left the ivory tower such a difficult topic right from the start.

But to be honest, as far as mathematics is concerned, what's the difference between the work in the ivory tower and the work I'm arranging now?

It's just that the work I'm arranging is a little more difficult!

What's wrong?

Fang Yuan didn't consider this kind of result at all. To be honest, in his previous expectations, the N-P complete problem should have been solved almost now.

But what about the facts?

It was simply a slap in the face, making him realize the reality.

Okay, since that's the case, I'm not in a hurry anymore.

Since I've already done something like pulling up seedlings to help them grow, I can't give up halfway.

At worst, I'll give them more supplements in the future to solve the future troubles of this period.

Seeing that Fang Yuan was determined not to pay attention to this matter, these people can be considered to have understood.

The little boss is really disappointed in them this time.

If it were them, they would also be very disappointed. People have already built the framework for themselves, and all they need to do is add the content to make it a complete solution.

Even so, they couldn't complete it, and anyone would be disappointed, right?

The previous enthusiasm has been extinguished by the coldness of reality.

When they first came, they were still fantasizing about proving the N-P complete problem and becoming a member of the world's top.

Not to mention a team solving the N-P complete problem, even if several teams cooperated to complete this conjecture, they would become the pearls of the mathematics world.

Looking at the current situation, the pearls are getting farther and farther away from them. If they don't explode again, this pearl of the mathematics world will have nothing to do with them.

After all, Fang Yuan's patience is also limited. Judging from their current results and progress, it will take another year and a half to prove the entire conjecture.

This is still under the condition that there are no detours.

I don't know what these people are thinking. Fang Yuan clearly pointed them to a broad road, but they insisted on taking a narrow path.

I don't know what's good about the narrow path. Could it be that there are beauties on the narrow path?

No matter what's on the narrow path, it's not an excuse for them to go the wrong way.

Okay, if you don't want to be nailed to the pillar of shame, you can only rely on yourself.

Two weeks later, Fang Yuan sorted out all the directions of the research center.

After handing these materials to the person in charge of each laboratory, he will go to Zhou Shan's side.

The latest novels are available on 69shuba.com!

This guy should be getting anxious, right? Is he thinking that I'm tricking him!

It's about time. If I continue to let him wait, it won't be good for future cooperation.

"Is this Officer Zhou Shan? I'm Fang Yuan!"

This time, Fang Yuan didn't let Brother Wang contact him, but instead communicated with him personally.

"Brother Fang! How is it? Do you have time over there?" Zhou Shan said enthusiastically.

Not at all like what Brother Wang said about him being unapproachable.

"Well, I was dealing with some things during this time, I'm really sorry!"

"It's okay, so when can you come over?"

"Anytime, as long as you're ready!"

"Okay, I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow, it's the research center, right?"

"Yes!"

"Oh, right, I also have some other things I want to talk to you about privately, when do you have time?" Fang Yuan said to Zhou Shan, pretending to be nonchalant.

"Other things? Okay, then I'll pick you up in person tomorrow, we can talk on the way." Zhou Shan said after thinking for a while.

Fang Yuan's status is different now, but it hasn't reached the point where he needs a general to personally pick him up.

Zhou Shan did this partly to tell Fang Yuan that he valued him enough, and partly out of curiosity about what Fang Yuan wanted to talk to him about.

Judging from his appearance, this matter should not be a trivial one.

If Fang Yuan valued this matter so much, then he must know about it as soon as possible.

Looking at those experts who were trained by Fang Yuan before, their say in the military is rising again and again.

He even had to put on a smiling face for them, now it's good, this matter can be considered as letting him take the lead.

Most importantly, he used to be in charge of the research on holographic projection technology.

He might as well take this opportunity to see this genius who is rumored to be so great.

He wondered if the other party had three heads and six arms, or could pluck a hair and transform it into millions.

Otherwise, how could he have invented so many world-changing things at such a young age?

Speaking of which, he was a little envious of this guy.

If he could choose, he would also like to experience the other party's life.

Unlike himself, the medals on his shoulders were earned with his life. To be honest, if he had been a little careless, he wouldn't be where he is today.

Don't think that soldiers are safe now.

Not to mention anything else, Zhou Shan knows that some familiar faces disappear from his comrades every year.

It's just that no one knows about it, and even after some people disappear, no one except them will notice.

The Huaguo army may not be the most top-notch in terms of combat effectiveness, but in terms of dedication, it is definitely the most top-notch in the world.

Although the things shown in the movies are a bit exaggerated, you can indeed find corresponding prototypes.

……

The next day, Zhou Shan really came to pick up Fang Yuan in person.

"You must be Chief Zhou Shan, nice to meet you, nice to meet you!" Fang Yuan said, shaking hands with Zhou Shan who got out of the car.

"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you, Mr. Fang, let's get in the car first!"

"Okay!"

Fang Yuan turned around and told Xiang Lingling a few words, and then followed Zhou Shan away.

Seeing Xiang Lingling's worried eyes, Fang Yuan felt a warmth in his heart.

Judging from this appearance, anyone who didn't know would think he had been arrested!

What is this Zhou Shan guy doing with such a big show? Does he want to give him a show of strength?

No way, such a show might have scared the Fang Yuan of a few years ago, but is it a bit naive to scare the current Fang Yuan?

Fang Yuan was really overthinking it. The other party had no other ideas, purely to show how much he valued Fang Yuan.

"By the way, didn't you say you had something to tell me! Speak!" As a soldier, he never beat around the bush.

"Uh! There is something, this matter is of great importance, are you sure it's okay to talk about it here?"

Seeing Fang Yuan's serious expression, Zhou Shan pulled up the curtain or partition in front.

"Let's talk now, if we talk in here, only you and I will know."

"It's like this…" Fang Yuan said his thoughts.

"What?"

Zhou Shan was taken aback by Fang Yuan.

Is this real? Or did he hear it wrong?

What did this guy just say? Did he sleep for many years?

Has the outside world become like this now?

Is he out of touch with the times?

After the shock, there was a series of questions.

But after a while, he reacted.

It's not that he's out of touch with the times.

But that this Fang Yuan guy is too far ahead of this era.

"Are you sure you can achieve it? Aren't you lying to me? This matter is not something I can decide alone. How about this, I can contact someone higher up for you, even the top leader, and you can talk to them in person then!"

It's not that Zhou Shan doesn't want this credit, but this credit is too great, he really can't support it.

Well, it's really a pity. If he could complete this matter, he wouldn't be aiming for the youngest major general, but could be aiming for the youngest lieutenant general, or even a general.

What a pity…
