The end of technology.

After hearing these words, Li Rongchang nodded quickly and said: "Yes, this afternoon, Ning Zi participated in the meeting on this new material. Don't you know that he directly assigns tasks to our scientists, which is really amazing. I gained a lot of insight."

"Oh? Let's hear it." The old man was obviously very interested and asked.

"Ok!"

Li Rongchang nodded, then put down the document in his hand, and began to state: "Ning Zi said that the first step for the spacecraft to go into space is to complete the moon landing. He said that with anti-gravity materials, it is equivalent to solving most of the problems. The dynamic effect of cosmic physics and the problem of power acquisition, but still need an observation point to clarify the physical transformation process of high-energy state power, so as to promote the progress of space power technology.

At the same time, it is necessary to immediately develop the preparation and application technology of artificial photosynthetic materials for extraterrestrial survival.To solve the basic material and energy needs of manned deep space exploration and human long-term extraterrestrial survival.This technology is also very important, and it is the basic technology for human beings to survive in outer space for a long time.

Then there is the long-distance high-power unlimited energy transmission technology, and so on.However, he also said that the discovery of anti-gravity materials made it possible to abandon some previous projects that required a lot of research.For example, using lunar soil resources to realize in-situ construction of the lunar surface.Because the previous consideration is that if we really want to build a safe and durable lunar base on the moon, we still need to rely on the resources of the moon itself.

Because if all building materials are transported up from the earth, the cost is too high.However, the earth-moon ferry with anti-gravity technology can greatly reduce the transportation cost. It only needs about one percent of the previous resources to transport all the required materials.

And Ning Zi also said that his laboratory also has a complete set of solutions to the problems of precise modeling and intelligent control brought about by cross-domain flight of aircraft.Including the use of detectors to monitor the complex airflow in the high-altitude atmosphere of the planet and high-precision predictions, etc., so it is the most scientific to follow his plan. "

After listening to Li Rongchang's introduction, the old man pondered for a moment, and asked, "What did Gao and the others say?"

Li Rongchang smiled, and replied: "Hey, I was probably shocked by what Ning Zi brought out, and no one made any comments. Now several academicians are still staying in the laboratory. Willing to go, this means that the laboratory of the University of Physical Education is fully equipped with various testing equipment, and everyone is working together to understand the various physical properties of new materials from multiple angles.

That is because it is not yet confirmed whether this material should be kept secret, and it is not convenient for Mr. Gao and the others to ask students to do things. They are all operated in the laboratory by themselves, and in order to ensure speed, several people even arrange shifts, 24 hours a day. Make sure there are people in the lab, I can't persuade you..."

The old man shook his head with a smile, pointed at Li Rongchang and said, "Hehe, it seems that you have already been persuaded by Ning Zi. Then do as he said. Since he said that what is really important is Strong artificial intelligence technology, it is no big deal to announce that we have this material, after all, it will appear in the sun."

Li Rongchang also laughed, and replied: "That's okay, I will tell Mr. Gao and the others later, let them not call all the students. The World Astronomy High-level Forum held by Ningyuan will be in eight days. It’s fine if the students don’t leave the laboratory. It’s just that the children can’t go home to reunite this year. Ning Zi is also the same, he arranged a high-end forum on the third day of the Lunar New Year, which is sincere to prevent people from having a good year.”

"Haha, I understand, I understand. I look forward to celebrating the Spring Festival on the moon in a few years."

"This, let me tell you, should actually make young people look forward to it. When Ning Zi can really build a base on the moon in the future, he will build a theme park for Qixi Festival. On this day, lovers from all over the world can apply to the moon. Attending our Chinese Valentine's Day is also convenient for us to promote Chinese Valentine's Day to the whole world."

"That's a good idea. You can talk to Ning Zi more. Young people like him have more ideas. If you give them a start, there will always be a big surprise. Okay, let's go here first today. By the way, put Ning I am optimistic, especially after this material is released, the safety of young scientists like Ning Zi must be taken seriously, and I cannot overemphasize it, and I will emphasize it at the next meeting."

"Well, don't worry, a new security plan is already being studied here. By the way, Ning Zi also mentioned to me that he will open a space academy in the near future, intending to train a group of professional deep space crew members, and Scientific researchers who can adapt to long-term life in outer space."

"I don't care about these things. Just go back and urge me. As long as it is something he thinks is necessary, just do it."

"Ok!"

……

Yanbei University, Ningyuan.

After Ning Zi had a meeting with a group of test bosses in the afternoon, she went straight back to the University.

Now that the material has been made public, there is little point in continuing to retreat.

Speaking of which, the current retreat is just an excuse for Sanyue, and it is enough to study it with great concentration, and then come up with enough weight to let everyone know that this retreat is meaningful.

In fact, there is no need to retreat, but in that case it is even more difficult to explain, for example, why he can make things in the laboratory when he stays in Ning Yuan every day.

This retreat time is actually quite long.

There is no way, if the rationality must be emphasized, then Ning Zi will probably have to be locked up in the laboratory for ten or eight years without going out.

Fortunately, there is the almost omnipotent reason of laboratory coincidence, coupled with the fact that the test records in March are watertight, which can solve the confusion of these bigwigs to the greatest extent, and that is enough.

Of course, besides being able to see the people you miss right away, you also have important matters to discuss with them.

……

At this time, in the Ning Yuan cafeteria, Ning Zi and his wife were inviting Chen Yonggang to dinner.

The school has already started the winter vacation, but Ningyuan is still lively.Because of the preparations for the first large-scale academic event held here, there are more people in the cafeteria than in the past.From this point, it can also be seen that the school attaches great importance to Ning Yuan and this meeting.

But this is also what it should be.The changes that Ning Zi brought to the body are there.Moreover, this is also the first time for the University to undertake such a world-class high-end academic forum. It is also a new challenge for the whole school, and it cannot be overestimated.After all, the spirit of the adults is different now, and they have to compare with the two nearby schools for everything, so they are naturally full of motivation.

Tim Cook should have been invited for this meal, after all, it is really not easy for him to fly all the way to China.However, Ning Zi did not say yesterday that he would come out of the laboratory today, and after the Apple president confirmed that he would stay in China for nearly two weeks, he simply changed his itinerary and flew directly to inspect Apple's production base in China. Huaxia's supplier is gone, and the person is not in the capital at this time.

It is said that Apple is planning to increase the number of orders placed in China. This time, it plans to investigate some new suppliers and include them in Apple's supply channels.

There is no need to distinguish between true and false, the moment this news is released, the CEO of Apple will be able to live a very comfortable life in China, but there is indeed no shortage of Ning Zi's meal.

After all, Apple is the most famous rich man in the world, not to mention those hard assets. Just a top rich man with hundreds of billions of dollars in cash reserves. Just a little leak in his hands can double the performance of many companies. So this old man is welcomed wherever he goes.Not to mention that being included as an Apple supplier is already synonymous with quality.

So Ning Zi is not worried that Tim Cook will be bored during this time. Ning Zi also knows that the news must be true, or even if it is false, there is a high probability that he will change his mind after this meeting .

In the future space age, the real high-end mobile phone probably depends on whether it can be used normally on the moon.For a long time, it will probably need the support of the Huaxia relay system.

After all, the moon is 38 kilometers away from the earth, and the earth is still rotating, so the earth-moon communication must be completed through relay satellites.

Now if you want to perfectly place various communication satellites in lunar orbit and form a network to maintain the connection between the earth and the moon, you still have to rely on the space launch command center made of anti-gravity materials to complete.After all, launching a satellite directly from the earth to the lunar orbit is not only technically difficult, but the success rate is not high, and the cost is too high to be worthwhile.

Ning Zi firmly believes that Tim Cook can recognize the situation, after all, he is too smart.Ning Zi doesn't care that Apple can make more money, and it's not in any interest to kill Apple with one shot.The most important thing is a win-win situation.

But even if there are only three people in this meal, it is still very lively.

We are all acquaintances, so we can let go.Lu Xiaoya has a cheerful personality, and Chen Yonggang is especially good at talking, which is enough to make the dinner a happy one.Especially today, Master Su was here, specially prepared some self-brewed rice wine for the three of them, the alcohol content is not high, after being slightly heated, it has a strong rice fragrance and a hint of sweetness, very refreshing.

A person like Ning Zi who didn't drink at all couldn't help but drink two glasses.

After drinking for three rounds like this, Ning Zi went straight to the topic: "Principal Chen, we may have to be busy for a while after the year. We are going to apply for a space academy, which will start recruiting students in September next year. The school will apply directly after the year. directly through."

"what?"

Chen Yonggang was stunned for a moment. The school was going to open a new major, and it was a major that he had never thought of. It really surprised him, and there was sadness in the surprise.

The main problem is that the schools are full.

A number of new natural science majors have been added, and the school has already begun to operate at full capacity.

Now the higher-ups are still discussing whether to expand or arrange a new campus for the University of Physical Education. He actually prefers to develop a new campus, but it takes a long time from construction to operation of the new campus.

To put it bluntly, the school is developing too fast, and the current hardware can no longer keep up with the school's development speed, which has caused many problems. This has been Chen Yonggang's happiest worry during this period.

Now Ning Zi wants to build a new major, which is indeed a headache.

"No, Ning Zi, how about taking this matter slowly? My new campus hasn't been officially approved yet, and if I open a new major, where will the students go to class?"

Ning Zi shook his head and said: "This major cannot be delayed. It is actually too late to start recruiting students next year. In the next five to eight years, we will need a lot of talents in this major. And I have already reported that this major Instead of the headquarters, a branch campus will be opened at the large scientific research base in Pingwa District, where this major usually takes classes and training.

Moreover, the major of the University of Physical Education has an advantage. In the future, the major of the Space Academy will not only need talents in scientific research, but also talents in interstellar exploration, so some majors will have higher requirements for physical fitness.It just so happens that some corresponding exercise courses can be opened.In addition, in the future, the University of Physical Education will bring the study of sky and human adaptation science into the track as soon as possible. This area cannot be left behind. "

Chen Yonggang was stunned for a while, it was information he had not heard.

The [-]-acre scientific research base in Pingwa District has a very high security level. According to Ning Zi’s original plan, in addition to many personal laboratories, it is also a large-scale robot test production research base. Space Academy...

And according to Ning Zi's tone, this major will come in handy within five to eight years.

Even though Chen Yonggang was insensitive to specific scientific progress, he still tasted it, and he couldn't help asking subconsciously: "Ning Zi, did you gain anything from this retreat?"

Ning Zi nodded and replied: "There are indeed some harvests, but Li Rongchang suggested that I should not talk about it for the time being. Fortunately, it should be deciphered soon, because I will show the results this time at the Astronomical Conference. By the way, When enrolling students in the Space Academy, we can guarantee that as long as you study hard and pass the exam, you can successfully graduate from our Space Academy. The school guarantees 30.00% employment, and the future salary level will not be less than one million annual salary. The school guarantees the elimination rate of the Space Academy exam No more than [-]%, these can be signed in the enrollment contract."

"100% employment package? Not less than a million annual salary? Even the worst graduates are given this kind of conditions?" Chen Yonggang clicked his tongue.

Really, as far as the current situation is concerned, there is no major school in China that dares to offer such conditions to students when they enroll.

"Well, it's not just that, even if the 30.00% who are eliminated, as long as they can pass a professional skills assessment in the academy, they can guarantee employment with an annual salary of not less than 50. However, it must be stipulated in the contract that there may be They often have to travel to outer space, and for some special positions, they may have to stay outside the earth for half a year every year."

"No, Ning Zi, the Space Academy will train astronauts in the future?"

"Inaccurate. There are eight different departments in the Space Academy in the initial plan, but most of them are not as strict as the current astronauts. Because the way to enter space in the future will be completely different from the present. The place of work is not only a small space station, we Building a space command and launch platform between the earth and the moon requires people to be able to reside and work in this large space building.

In the future, with a lunar base, it is impossible to rely solely on robots. Scientific research personnel and maintenance personnel are needed to stick there.This is probably the kind of people our Space Academy trains.There are also those who are related to astronauts. After our deep space exploration series of spacecraft are produced, the crew will also need to be able to drive these ships to do various exploratory work, so there will be a large talent gap. "

Chen Yonggang was stunned by these words.

He has a déjà vu feeling that he is listening to a science fiction novel.

Indeed, there is a huge gap in this kind of talent, not to mention China, but the whole world.But the lack is because there are no suitable positions at all.

How many people can work on the space station at a time?A few hundred people around the world are enough.Cultivate a large number of talents in this area, and provide jobs, unless...

"Ning Zi, your discovery this time is related to space? Will it give us the ability to start space exploration within a few years?"

"You will know after the forum in the third year of junior high school." Ning Zi smiled and shook her head, and said.

But after hearing Ning Zi's words, and seeing Lu Xiaoya's smile on the opposite side, Chen Yonggang realized that he probably guessed right.

There is a high probability that Ning Zi's discovery after this retreat is related to space exploration.Thinking about the request from his superiors to keep him secret for the time being, and not even being able to tell him about it for the time being, Chen Yonggang suddenly felt his blood boil.

This reminded him of Ning Zi's bold words when he asked him to build Ning Yuan.

"This will be the center of global technology in the future."

So subconsciously swallowed, and changed the method: "Ning Zi, after the astronomy forum in the third year of junior high school, will the world go crazy for a while?"

Ning Zi thought for a while, then nodded with certainty, and said, "Well, it's not just crazy for a while, because it involves some cognitive things, which will promote some current theoretical systems, and for ordinary people ...Probably because you feel that it is particularly magical? Maybe there is a feeling of magic shining into reality."

"Does magic shine into reality?" Chen Yonggang slowly savored these words in his heart, and for a while he felt that he might be looking forward to the arrival of this astronomy forum more than Tim Cook...

Chapter 191 Bad Time Arrangement

On February 2019, 2, the Chinese New Year's Eve arrived as scheduled.It's time for Huaxia to welcome the new year again. This is also the second year the Ning family has spent in the capital, which is far more lively than the first.The main thing was Ning Zi's first new year after marriage.

The whole family of the Ning family and the three members of the Lu family came to the university early in the morning, and Ning Zi's aunt followed the tradition of the Ning family and started preparing the New Year's Eve dinner early in the morning.Fortunately, there are many people who can help now, so it won't be too tiring.And early in the morning, Ningyuan cafeteria delivered a lot of pre-cooked ingredients, which can be practical with simple heating.

Although there are large-scale activities in Ningyuan in the third year of junior high school.But most people still have to have a holiday on New Year's Eve.Although some invited scientists have come to Huaxia, most of them live in nearby hotels and are taken care of in daily life.

Of course, there are some people who are special today, such as Tim Cook.

Although Ning Zi invited Tim Cook to a dinner party, the Apple CEO came to Ning's house at noon, and his arrival made Ning's house even more lively.

He did not come empty-handed. This time Tim Cook brought two sets of all Apple products as gifts.Although there is no shortage of electronic products here, the old man is still very popular.Especially Ning Yulin, after accepting the gift happily, she directly regarded the Apple CEO as her speaking partner.

I have to say that Ning Yulin's language skills have improved rapidly in the past two years in the capital.It is still junior high school, and I can already have a normal conversation with Tim Cook, a pure American.

Ning Zi thinks this is also very good.

Although the future intelligent translation system will be very advanced, it will greatly reduce communication barriers between different languages.But it's also easier to learn a language rather than a machine.

The most important thing is to cultivate her sister's self-confidence. Now Ning Yulin, who is already cheerful, is even more cheerful.

Of course, Ning Zi knew the reason why Tim Cook came so early. After Ning Yulin had been grinding the boss for a while, Ning Zi took the time to invite him to the study.

When he came to Ning Zi's study for the second time, Tim Cook sat on the sofa and said with emotion: "You have a very cute sister."

Ning Zi sat down at his desk and said with a smile, "What about you?"

"I only have two brothers. Although they are nice people, I would rather have a younger sister." Tim Cook shrugged and expressed his opinion.

Ning Zi smiled and didn't continue this topic. After all, the two of them didn't care much about each other's family, so they just asked straight to the point: "Okay, Mr. Cook, let's not talk about things that cannot be changed. What do you want to talk about?" what?"

Speaking of business, Tim Cook also became serious, looked at Ning Zi and asked: "I am here because of the new chip technology and intelligent programmable software, which is the Faster software that Cisco is now launching. Ning, If you have a choice, I think maybe Apple can cooperate with you more deeply."

Faster is Cisco's name for artificial intelligence programming software. It is simple and rude, and it probably means faster than humans.

"If it's about the chip, we can talk about it, including giving Apple better conditions. As I said before, you have supported our chip research center, and we will launch more advanced technology levels in the future. Moore's Law can be continued. The three-dimensional configuration and the main structure of the carbon tube can make Moore's Law effective for at least another 20 years. But Faster has been fully authorized to Cisco. If Apple needs related products, it can only contact Cisco. Talk about cooperation."

Tim Cook shook his head slightly and said: "Actually, this is exactly what I am worried about. To be honest, Apple has not purchased Faster so far, and I am still waiting and watching. Although this software can indeed save costs to a great extent , but to be honest, I’m concerned. I don’t even recommend that Apple’s developers make a wholesale switch to using this software to provide software for Apple.”

Ning Zi nodded and asked, "Why? Many companies in Silicon Valley have started using this software, and it has proved to be very effective."

Tim Cook looked at Ning Zi seriously and said: "But no one can guarantee that it will last forever. When people start to rely on a tool and lose a certain ability, they always hope that it can get whatever they want, but in fact many Sometimes hope and reality always run counter to each other.”

These words were very tactful, and she almost pointed at Ning Zi's nose and said that if everyone relied on this product, there would be troubles here.

But Ning Zi was not angry, just smiled and said: "Tim, many big companies don't think so. You are not the only smart person in Silicon Valley."

Tim Cook shrugged his shoulders again and replied: "There is a reason. They want to participate in the development of new standards. They need to be nice. I have talked to many people, but they feel that there is nothing to worry about. , because they believe that people's skills will not disappear quickly over time. If there is any problem, those who have been laid off can be recruited back at any time.

Of course, they must also be responsible for the shareholders, after all, Faster can indeed save a lot of expenses.Obviously the vast majority of people are optimists, but not me.To be honest, I am a pessimistic person most of the time. I like to think about a problem for as long as possible. "

Well, Ning Zi can feel that although this boss is strong, he is also very cautious, but obviously this cautious thinking is wrong, or the direction of worry is not right.

In fact, Ning Zi really didn't plan to use this software to do anything in the future, because it was unnecessary.

Since reaching an agreement with Apple to help upgrade Siri in exchange for a chip research and development center, some people think that Ning Zi is selling technology at a low price.

But the reality is that both Sanyue and Ning Zi don't bother to rely on these technologies to make money.

Doing these things is just to save resources.

Including letting Cisco proxy faster, the ultimate goal is also to save resources.Because from the kitten's point of view, all these saved resources will eventually be used by humans to conquer space.

In other words, it will eventually flow into its predetermined direction of development.

As for where to keep these temporarily unused money?

So for Tim Cook's worries, Ning Zi just shook his head and smiled, and then said: "Actually, this suspicion is normal, and I don't think you will believe anything now. But after the third day of junior high school After reading the forum, I believe you can understand how ridiculous this idea is.

It's better to embrace the future boldly. Faster will only become more and more intelligent in the future. I will allow it to be used in China after three years at most. It is meaningless for Apple to insist on these three years.So I still sincerely suggest that we will not discuss whether it is chips or faster for now, and we will formally discuss cooperation after the forum, how about it? "

The topic was once again brought to the upcoming large-scale academic forum. Seeing Ning Zi's confident look, Tim Cook didn't know what to say for a while.

To be honest, at the moment, he doesn't really want to figure out what kind of discovery will give Ning Zi such confidence, thinking that after reading it, he will definitely shake his current thinking.But it also made him more curious.

So after a moment of silence, Tim Cook asked with a wry smile: "This makes me even more confused, Ning, do you want me to sleep well these two days? Maybe you can give me some information first , really, I don't want to lose sleep continuously."
