Genius club

Genius Club Chapter 18 Within the Cone of Light (1/3)

At the exit of the cinema, Tang Xin stretched out happily:

"What a great movie! Sure enough, what my colleagues recommended was right!"

Lin Xian nodded:

"Yeah, it's much better than the first one."

Tonight, Tang Xin said it was to thank Lin Xian for the treat a few days ago, and she had arranged everything.

After dinner, Tang Xin took out two movie tickets and invited Lin Xian to watch a movie.

"The Wandering Earth 2".

Lin Xian was indeed moved.

Lin Xian wanted to watch this movie during the Chinese New Year, but he never had time to go... After the Chinese New Year, he went to Shanxi again. He finished busy with Liu Feng and returned to the East China Sea. He just had some free time.

have to say……

This is a real science fiction movie, this is a real science fiction world.

In the plot of "The Wandering Earth", in 2075, humans have already used fusion engines to push the earth out of the orbit of the sun and wandered in the universe.

But who would have thought...

In the real future world 600 years later, humans are still playing cosplay in the Victorian era in a palm-sized place in Xindonghai City.

According to Lin Xian’s observation of the scientific and technological level of Xindonghai City...

Compared with 2023, there is definitely development, but the extent of development is too small.

Lin Xian originally thought that this steel city had already conquered controllable nuclear fusion and had inexhaustible energy.

But actually... it's disappointing.

Related books in bookstores still pessimistically indicate that it is difficult to achieve a civilian breakthrough in controllable nuclear fusion. Humanity's current use of nuclear energy is still limited to the field of nuclear batteries.

Although nuclear batteries and controllable nuclear fusion both use nuclear energy, the gap is actually quite large. It can be simply understood as the difference between a battery with a large capacity and a battery with unlimited energy.

In fact, nuclear batteries have already been used in 2023. Even the space probe Voyager 1 launched in 1977 used an early nuclear battery.

In these 600 years, humans have only developed and improved existing technologies. To put it bluntly...it seems that nothing new or new disciplines have emerged.

so.

In the world 600 years later, there is still a mysterious force that inhibits the development of science and technology.

Is it a genius club?

Or the murderer of Xu Yun?

Or is it someone else?

The answer...maybe not far away from me.

"If there really is an end of the world... where should mankind go?" Tang Xin looked up at the dark clouded sky and murmured to himself:

"Although the sun's helium flash in "The Wandering Earth" will not come so soon, no one can tell what the future of mankind will be like. If there is really an end of the world...how should mankind face it?"

Listening to Tang Xin's words, Lin Xian recalled the white light that destroyed the world 600 years later:

"Maybe people just don't realize it."

He said softly:

"Perhaps it is not as pessimistic as you think. If it is an observable and preventable crisis of extinction, human beings may be able to find ways to avoid it, whether it is wandering the earth or other methods... human beings can always think of ways to survive."

"But if it is the kind of crisis that cannot be predicted, I think there is no need to worry. Human beings will not know its arrival in advance, and by the time they know it, it will be too late. It is estimated that no one will suffer any pain, just now Evaporated in sleep”…. .

Tang Xin nodded silently:

"Unobserved crises...that's an interesting idea!"

She smiled and said:

"I really haven't thought about this problem before. It seems that in all science fiction works, human beings are aware of the coming crisis of annihilation. Whether it is the helium flash of the sun in "The Wandering Earth" or the aliens in "The Three-Body Problem" The attack of the fleet...after all, humans have predicted it hundreds of years in advance."

"With the current level of science and technology of mankind, even if a huge meteorite really flies towards the earth, it can be predicted and prevented. If there is really an annihilation crisis that cannot be observed by humans..."

"[I'm afraid it's just radiation and rays that come at the speed of light, right?]"

"Is such that."

Lin Xian has also thought about this problem before:

"If the crisis that destroys the earth strikes at the speed of light, then humans will not be able to predict or observe it anyway. The speed of light is the fastest speed in the universe... When you see it, you will arrive at it, and it is completely impossible to prevent it."

"So I've always been curious about how to turn around to avoid lasers in those mecha combat works... It stands to reason that light weapons cannot be avoided, because the speed of light is too fast."

"If that's really the case...then there's nothing we can do." Tang Xin sighed:

"In fact, after I have been engaged in scientific research for a long time, I feel more and more how insignificant human beings are. The entire earth is not even a drop in the universe, let alone an individual in history."

"As you said, if there is really a force that destroys the earth and strikes at the speed of light, there is really no way to do it. Humanity can only accept the fate of civilization's demise."

"[Everything within the light cone is destiny...]" Tang Xin said with emotion.

There is no way...

Lin Xian listened to Tang Xin's description without saying a word.

r\u003e

She was indeed right.

If in the world 600 years in the future, the white light that destroys the world really hits at the speed of light, then humans will really have nothing to do.

The speed of light is so absolute.

The sentence "Everything within the light cone is destiny" is a famous saying quoted by Tang Xin from the book "Three-Body 2: Dark Forest".

It seems that she is indeed a science fiction lover.

Lin Xian originally thought that these rigorous scientific researchers did not like science fiction works, but now it seems that is not the case. According to Tang Xin, many of his colleagues like science fiction movies and novels.

The fate within the light cone cannot be changed, because it has already happened.

but……

[What if you are outside the light cone? 】

The only thing Lin Xian could think of that might be outside the light cone... was the cosmological constant.

42.

The mysterious power of this mysterious number is terrifying enough to scare the genius club.

I hope that the crisis around me can be resolved as soon as possible and that I can understand the meaning of 42 as soon as possible. Lin Xian thought to himself.

"Speaking of which...you said you had something to give me?"

Lin Xian and Tang Xin walked to the roadside and Lin Xian said.

"Oh, I almost forgot when I was thinking about it after watching the movie!" Tang Xin finally recovered from thinking about the fate of the universe and the stars, took out a beautifully printed admission ticket from his coat pocket, and handed it to Lin Xian: …. .

"Hehe, it's for you!"

this……

Lin Xian tensed up for a moment.

The familiar size and print...

This is the ticket for the "Tonghai City Music Performance"!

Although he hadn't gotten it yet, Lin Xian recognized it at a glance. After all, Chu Anqing just gave herself a gift a few days ago... and it's still in the drawer.

"Although it's a bit late to give it to you, the main reason is that I want to give you a ticket with a better location." Tang Xin scratched the broken hair behind her ears and smiled sheepishly:

"I don't know if you have time the night after tomorrow... Our symphony orchestra has been rehearsing the program for a long time. I think it is very good. Moreover, the leader of the orchestra also attaches great importance to me and gave me the position of lead violinist... If you have If you have time, you might as well come and watch my performance~"

Lin Xian took the ticket from her hand.

one look.

What a coincidence.

Also a special seat.

Generally speaking, this kind of internal performers will be given a few tickets by the organizer, but they are all in ordinary seats, and they are definitely not special seats.

So this special seat ticket must have been obtained by Tang Xin with some effort... She is not the little princess of the East China Sea like Chu Anqing, who has the wishing lamp of Chu Shanhe, so she has been putting off getting the ticket for herself until now.

honestly……

If Tang Xin hadn't mentioned it today, Lin Xian would have almost forgotten about it.

"Then I will definitely go and appreciate it."

Lin Xian smiled and said:

"Although my music appreciation level is not very good, I still have to go and support my old classmate's performance."

"Hehe, then I have to perform well!"

Tang Xin smiled happily when she heard that Lin Xian agreed to go.

Lin Xian put this ticket in his pocket... plus the one Chu Anqing gave him, he now had two special class tickets for the concert.

Bring Gao Yang along with you when the time comes, so as to avoid embarrassment. Communicate well with the people next to you. You should not mind changing seats so that you and Gao Yang sit together.

Whether it was Chu Anqing or Tang Xin, they came here specially to send tickets, and Lin Xian could not live up to their good intentions.

The next day, Lin Xian put both tickets into the office drawer, then took the information and went to Zhao Yingjun's office for daily work.

He now goes to Zhao Yingjun's office several times every day and has a lot of work involving company secrets.

Lin Xian skillfully entered the code for the password door and walked in directly.

Zhao Yingjun was not surprised by Lin Xian's arrival and started asking about work matters directly.

When two people work together, the efficiency is indeed much higher.

Zhao Yingjun is no longer as tired as before, and his complexion is much better. Many people in the company say that Mr. Zhao is much gentler during this period.

People's emotions are definitely related to their mood. When you are free from work, your mood will naturally improve.

"Lin Xian, are you interested in music and dance?"

"ah?"

Lin Xian was a little surprised and didn't know how to answer:

"Okay."

Why did Zhao Yingjun suddenly mention this matter?

Did she know that Chu Anqing came to the company to give her concert tickets that day?

Maybe Chu Anqing would tell Zhao Yingjun directly. The relationship between the two seems to be good in private, and they may even invite Zhao Yingjun. Chu Anqing must have a lot of votes.

"Someone gave me two tickets for the "Donghai City Music Performance", which will be held at the Oriental Art Center tomorrow night."

Zhao Yingjun took out two very familiar tickets from the drawer... placed them on the table and looked at Lin Xian with a smile:

"Would you like to watch it together?"
