"Three-dimensional, I can't understand four-dimensional, because there is no four-dimensional around, I haven't seen it, I don't know what it looks like, I can't understand..."

"In other words, it doesn't exist, so there is no idea..."

"Could it be that the particle energy theory is wrong, or...the foundation is not laid properly?"

Zhao Yi suddenly widened his eyes.

Now all researches on the theory of particle boundaries are based on the initially assumed mathematical logic, and even if the original mathematical logic is not wrong, it is not sure that it covers everything. For example, the way of energy combination is a problem.

The periphery of the particle is arranged by energy points, but why are the energy points fixed?Is there some kind of imprisoning force between the energy point and the energy point?

These can only be imagined, because the most basic particles cannot be split.

Zhao Yi frowned and thought about it. He seemed to think of something, but he still couldn't grasp it directly. He simply sighed and went to the big office next to him to find some latest mathematics magazines.

Zhou Li found several books for him, "In the new issue of "New Advances in Mathematics", there is a very interesting proof related to you."

"It's about me?"

Zhao Yi opened "New Advances in Mathematics" with doubts, and knew what Zhou Li was talking about.

The proof of the weakened twin prime number conjecture!

"New Advances in Mathematics" released the proof of the weakened twin prime number conjecture by Moore Jin, a mathematician from country Y, but he failed to continue to narrow the 'distance between two prime numbers 246', but used another method to prove that 'there is infinite pairs of prime numbers less than or equal to 246', that is, the same conclusion as Zhao Yi's proof.

The same conclusion, not necessarily the proof method? !

"Is there any preferential treatment for mathematicians in country Y? A new proof that is completely meaningless, and the process is a bit more complicated, can be published in "New Advances in Mathematics."

Zhao Yi glanced at it and shook his head. He felt that his requirements were probably too high. In all fairness, the new proof method is also very interesting, which means he has found a new way of thinking.

The significance of its existence is, "Maybe with a new proof method, can we continue to shrink 246?"

Zhao Yi was not interested. He was about to put the magazine aside, but suddenly stopped, frowning and muttering to himself, "Twin prime numbers should be a characteristic of prime numbers, right?"

"Then do prime numbers have other properties?"

"Is there any prime number, or which numbers, have special properties in relation to prime numbers?"

"In this way, we can find new laws related to prime numbers, or new division methods..."

As soon as an idea came to Zhao Yi's mind, he thought of a very unusual number --

Chapter 4 You are such a genius, is it possible that you are not sick?

"Two is a very interesting number."

"Taoists say that Taiji produces two appearances, two appearances give birth to four phenomena, and two appearances are the initial form of the evolution of all things in the world; there is also a saying that 'Tao produces one, one life, two, two, three, and three, all things', and two is the transitional stage of all things. .”

"Actually, the meanings are similar. Second, it is an important transition in the evolution of all things..."

Thinking about it, Zhao Yi quickly shook his head, and found that his thinking was a bit off. He was studying mathematics, not Taoism, philosophy and other issues. "In mathematics, 2 is the only even prime number."

"2, this number has always existed. Prime numbers are just the definition of mathematicians, but many laws and contents related to prime numbers do involve the number 2."

"The twin prime numbers are a pair of prime numbers. Why not three or five? Only two?"

"Goldbach conjectured that dividing an even number into the sum of two prime numbers, and the combination of the two can indeed play a wonderful role."

"Design an algorithm to find prime numbers. The first speed that needs to be detected is two, and two is also the smallest unit. Whether it is a sieve or something else, the most numbers will be eliminated."

"This is related to the fact that computers are based on 'binary', but the reason why binary is simple and the easiest to distinguish mechanically is also because two is the basic number..."

Zhao Yi thought along the train of thought.

Most of them are meaningless, but summed up, the number '2' is indeed very strange.

He suddenly frowned and thought, "With Goldbach's conjecture, thinking about the combination of prime numbers in pairs, will there be something magical about the Nth power of 2?"

"Some prime numbers can be combined to the Nth power of 2, and some prime numbers cannot."

"3, 5, yes; 7, no."

"Then, is there anything wonderful about 2 to the Nth power?"

Zhao Yi thinks about it and thinks it will be wrong. '2 to the Nth power', that is, '4, 8, 16, 32...', is just one of the laws of numbers, and it is nothing special when you think about it carefully. He simply gave up thinking about it, but re-examined the original mathematical framework of his particle boundary theory.

The reason why the previous research did not make progress is most likely because the basic structure is not perfect. Without basic support, it is useless to think about it. He thinks that some content should be added, or continue to think and improve.

He carefully studied the part of the mathematical structure and found that there are indeed some places where content can be added or improved, but these works are of little significance.

At the same time, thinking about the number '2' and '2 to the Nth power' has been lingering in my mind.

This kind of thinking made him unknowingly do a job: examine the energy structure of photons.

Zhao Yi relies on the particle boundary theory to construct the energy boundary of particles, but only photons have a high degree of completion. Compared with other examples, photons are much simpler and very common, and their characteristics have been analyzed clearly.

However, it cannot be said that the energy structure of the photon has been perfected. He has probably only completed about 80.00%, and the remaining 20.00% cannot be completed by existing research.

In the process of constantly examining the photon energy structure, Zhao Yi was also looking for information related to '2 to the Nth power', and he quickly discovered something worthy of attention--

The prime number arrangement interval of the energy points on the edge of the photon seems to skip the position of '2 to the Nth power'.

For example, initial positions 11-15.

Then 41-47.

Then 73-91.

After jumping to the three-digit number, it is also in the range of 400-500. It seems to 'avoid' the '2 to the Nth power' position, and the subsequent positions need function calculations.

Zhao Yi simply calculated carefully, and he quickly listed all the intervals below six digits, and found that the arrangement of each energy point avoided the position of '2 to the Nth power'.

"Is it a coincidence?"

"maybe……"

He thought about continuing to list numbers, and it took about 10 minutes to list the subsequent seven-digit range, but he still skipped the '2 to the Nth power' position.

From the perspective of numerical probability, this discovery is of little significance, because the numbers in each interval of the seven-digit number add up to about 2% of all intervals, and the interval does not include '[-] to the Nth power 'Numbers are also normal.

"Is it really just a coincidence? Or is there some special relationship?" Zhao Yi pondered for a long time, but couldn't come to a conclusion, and continued to calculate and verify. In the calculation, there are fuzzy values ​​in the middle, and it is difficult to continue to verify the design of computer methods.

Zhao Yi reluctantly chose to give up for the time being. When he was lying on the bed after dinner, the question was still lingering in his mind.

The next morning, the medical science center held a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Zhao Yi is the core figure of the 'invested', and he must attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony of the medical science center. He stood with Yan Xuelin and the general manager of Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory, cut the big red cloth with scissors, and later accepted it at the press conference. interviewed by media reporters.

He confirmed a message, "In the future, my laboratory will be in the Medical Science Center, and I will be the chief researcher."

"Director Yan is still in charge of the Medical Science Center, and I'm just a researcher, in charge of the laboratory work."

"I am very much looking forward to the establishment of a medical science center, and hope that in the future it will develop into a medical center with world influence, integrating scientific research, teaching and communication."

After dealing with the media at the press conference, Zhao Yi went to the Biomedical Research Institute and discussed with the people in the institute the research issues of 2-CV Binghydrogen molecule drug and Tianqing molecule.

Recently, there have been constant discussions about the 2-CV hydrogen molecule, mainly because Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory has applied for drug approval. The approval time will definitely be very long, and it is expected to take more than half a year at the earliest. Messages are put on the media.

There is a piece of news related to treatment that has attracted the attention of many people.

Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory announced the experimental therapeutic effect of 2-CV Binghydrogen molecular drug. Of the seven volunteers who insisted on being injected with 2-CV Binghydrogen molecular drug, six of them got their condition under control, and one suffered from a serious illness outbreak. sex death.

At the same time, the condition of two of the patients improved, and with the use of antiviral drugs, the routine immunity index in the body has improved to a certain extent.

Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory's medical statement on the treatment effect is, "2-CV Binghydrogen molecule effectively inhibits the spread of HIV in the human blood and central nervous system."

This news may sound like nothing, but it is unusual if you think about it carefully.

The seven AIDS volunteers who received 2-CV Binghydrogen molecular therapy have all entered the late stage of their illness. The late stage of AIDS is the stage of outbreaks of various diseases. It can be said that it has reached the level of "incurable". Not surprisingly, there were two AIDS patients with improved immune index, which also proved the effect of 2-CV hydrogen molecules.

Although the increase in the immune index is likely due to 'antiviral drugs', most antiviral drugs have almost no effect on patients with advanced AIDS.

The international community has also praised the effect of 2-CV Binghydrogen molecular drugs. Of course, a large part of the reason is that 2-CV Binghydrogen molecules are public achievements and do not involve patent issues. Other drug manufacturers can also produce related drugs.

In addition, they are "Tianqing elements".

There is still relatively little news about "Tianqing Molecule", and there is no news about drug development. The news that appears is that Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory cooperates with international and domestic medical institutions to provide "Tianqing Molecule" to medical institutions for research.

Among them, three foreign 'medical institutions' successfully obtained the 'Tianqing Element'.

There are quite a lot of domestic cooperative research institutions. There are more than a dozen medical research institutions that have obtained the 'Tianqing Molecule'. It is almost equivalent to sending representatives to negotiate and sign a cooperative research and development agreement. Qing Molecules' research.

This is probably also because most of the domestic medical research institutions are in the same system as the Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory, and there are higher-level departments as reinforcements, which will not involve too many problems.

There is also some dissatisfaction in foreign public opinion. For example, several medical institutions in European and American countries have expressed the hope that Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory can provide mutant E. coli, otherwise their research and development will be meaningless. The mutant E. coli is in the hands of Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory. No matter how good the efficacy of the medicine they researched, it was tantamount to making a wedding dress for Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory.

"Although there is no relevant business listed yet, the confirmed news proves that Tianqing protein is really effective against HIV. It may be able to cure AIDS when combined with 2CV-Bing hydrogen molecule and other anti-AIDS drugs."

"But everything is in the hands of Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory!"

"This is monopoly!"

"The monopoly on the fight against major diseases for all mankind is a kind of ruthless capital-absorbing behavior..."

"Drug patents have a limited number of years in the world, and the raw materials for drug manufacturing are the same. Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory should give an exact timetable for providing mutant E. coli."

Of course it's impossible, at least not for the time being!

In fact, the voices in the world are reasonable. The term of a drug patent is generally about 7 to 10 years. After the term, other drug manufacturers can imitate it.

The period of 7 to 10 years is to give drug manufacturers room to recover R&D costs and obtain certain profits.

However, there is no rule that the materials for drug manufacturing must be shared, and there is no way to really stipulate it.

Before the research and development funds are recovered and the due profits are obtained, Wucheng Pharmaceutical Factory will definitely not produce mutant E. coli, but in fact, the timetable can still be done.

For example, ten years or 20 years after the drug is on the market.

This time is enough to allow AIDS patients with financial means to receive treatment, while AIDS patients without financial means cannot bring considerable profits.

What happens next depends on the situation.

Everything is changing.

These have nothing to do with Zhao Yi.

"Tianqing Protein" has a part of his patent share, but he has no decision-making power on the issue of mutated E. coli, and thinking about it is a waste of brain cells.

Zhao Yi is more concerned about the progress of the laboratory's projects. There are several small projects, including Liu Chengjie's, Yan Yi's, and Zhang Wei's, which also need real care. One is the project where the researchers have the responsibility to help the laboratory members. The second is that small projects can make the number of projects in the laboratory more, at least the number is better.

After leaving the Biomedical Research Institute, it was almost noon, Zhao Yi went to have lunch, and when he returned to the dormitory, he received a very unexpected invitation.

"Edward? Video communication?"

"Now?"

Zhao Yi looked at the time and was surprised. The time difference between him and Edward - the stomachache happened to be almost twelve hours, and noon in the capital time was also the early morning on the opposite side.

He still accepted the communication, and when he opened the screen, he saw Edward's dark circles and bloodshot eyes everywhere.

"How long have you been up?" Zhao Yi asked in surprise.

"Eighteen hours? Twenty? No, it seems to be more than 20..." Edward Witten was a little unclear, but he seemed very energetic, "Zhao Yi, do you know what I found?"

Zhao Yi pursed his lips and replied, "I think you should go to sleep first, otherwise, I will think you are sleepwalking..."

"No, of course not."

Edward Witten shook his head vigorously, "I must share this news with you. I demonstrated M-theory, which is the mass point in multidimensional space."

"Quality points?"

"That is the unit of mass. You can understand that a large number of strings, combined in some way, produce mass. I made a proof, a mathematical proof!"

Edward Witten was very excited, "This also means that we may soon be able to break through the boundaries of multidimensional space!"

"...?"

Zhao Yi can't understand Edward-Witten's thinking. It is indeed a good breakthrough to demonstrate the quality point of multi-dimensional space, but it is estimated that it is far away from breaking the boundary of multi-dimensional space, because Edward-Witten has never done At the beginning of the research, there seems to be no huge breakthroughs, and similar arguments need to be completed three or five times before we can see a little hope.

That's about as far as his argument goes.

Now Zhao Yi feels that his research needs external help to move forward. Otherwise, it will take a long time and a lot of inspiration on his own.

"congratulations."

He said congratulations insincerely, and then suddenly said, "Edward, I have an idea. Maybe in microscopic physics, '2 to the Nth power' is a very magical number."

"What do you mean?"

Zhao Yi explained, "I always feel that '2 to the Nth power' is very unusual. For example, I can't find an energy point that contains '2 to the Nth power' in the interval of the photon energy composition argument."

"this one?"

Edward Witten's mouth opened a little exaggeratedly.

"Yup?"
