It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

……

Beijing.

within a circle.

"Qiming, I have an idea, listen to it and see how it goes."

The old man behind the desk put down the teacup in his hand, his eyes became darker.

"According to the current progress, we will soon enter the universe."

"You should know this too, right?"

Facing the old man's question, Hong Qiming, who was standing at the desk, nodded hastily.

After the People's Federation was established, his position also changed slightly.

Although he is no longer the Minister of Science and Technology, thanks to Lu Yongchang, he has also become a member of the People's Federation Council.

Compared with the original, his position must have moved up a lot.

The old man's steady voice continued.

"During this time, I have been thinking for a long time."

"If we are really lucky enough to escape this disaster next time, we will become a genuine interstellar civilization."

"A single parliament alone cannot undertake the important task of leading civilization."

Hearing this, Hong Qiming was shocked!

"Chairman, what do you mean by that!"

He breathed slightly and shouted in a low voice: "Humanity has just united now, don't you..."

A smile appeared on the corner of Mr. Li's mouth, and he raised his skinny palm and waved it lightly.

"Don't think about it, I'm not going to back down."

"Then what do you mean..." Hong Qiming's eyes became more and more suspicious.

The smile on the old man's face gradually faded.

"Facing the unknown universe, I think I'm just an ordinary person."

"I don't know what interstellar civilization is like. I can only try my best to imagine it with my imagination."

"I thought for a long time and came to two conclusions, or guesses."

Speaking of this, the old man paused slightly.

"First, the primary task of interstellar civilization is to develop technology. In the vast universe, what we need to face is not only the threat from the universe itself, but also the threat from other civilizations."

"Therefore, no matter what happens within the civilization, it must not affect the development of technology!"

"Second, in order to maintain a higher level of civilization, human civilization needs a large population, trillions of people!"

"Human energy is limited. Even if the size of the parliament continues to expand, what we can manage is limited."

"Do you see what I mean?"

Hong Qiming swallowed lightly.

A thought vaguely appeared in his mind.

He probably knew what Mr Lee was talking about.

It's just that this guess is too surprising.

He was a little afraid to speak out for a while.

Facing the old man's gentle gaze, Hong Qiming opened his lips slightly, and expressed his guess in a trembling voice.

The old man nodded with satisfaction.

"good."

"In the next few days, I will hold a People's Federation meeting."

"In order to adapt to the universe, human civilization needs to change."

……

Carbon Nanotron Lab.

"professor."

Zero's voice sounded from the loudspeaker beside Lu Yongchang: "The calculation result is out."

"Sorry, I can't get a precise answer."

"But I got an approximate range."

"Within this interval, there is a 96.9% probability that the carbon nanotubes you want exist."

Lu Yongchang's expression suddenly lifted.

enough!

There is an interval that is much better than the original one!

At least, experimentation has real boundaries!

He turned and turned on the computer beside him.

"Zero, pass the calculation result to me!"

The screen of the computer changed quietly, and a large series of dense data appeared on the screen.

Lu Yongchang looked at the data on the screen carefully, and shouted loudly: "Wei Rong! Come to work!"

……

a week later.

"...I already knew about the news of the People's Federation. Next, I will broadcast the latest news of the People's Federation for you."

On the TV screen, the host Bingbing said with a light smile on his lips.

"According to the results of the first session of the People's Federation, in order to adapt to the upcoming interstellar life, the People's Federation will undergo a major restructuring."

"The work content of the parliament has been reduced, and it is only responsible for the internal affairs of human civilization."

"At the same time, the People's Union Academy of Sciences was established. The Academy of Sciences is responsible for the external affairs of civilization and is fully responsible for the direction of civilization development."

"The Academy of Sciences is at the same level as the Parliament..."

"At the meeting, Councilor Li recommended Lu Yongchang as the chief scientist of the Academy of Sciences, and it was unanimously approved!"

"..."

……

At this moment, Lu Yongchang who was staying in the laboratory naturally didn't know what happened outside.

In his eyes, only the slender carbon nanotube in front of him remained.

"It's terrible..." Wei Rong's voice came from the side, "I didn't say it, our luck is too bad."

"We have given a range, and we have done all the possibilities in this range."

Hearing this, a wry smile appeared on Lu Yongchang's face.

That's right, what was in front of him at this moment was the last of the thousands of sample intervals.

Chapter 147 Kilometer-scale Carbon Nanotubes

"Professor, in case..."

Wei Rong looked at the carbon nanotubes in front of him anxiously, and said softly, "What if the samples this time..."

"stop!"

Lu Yongchang angrily interrupted Wei Rong's words: "There is nothing wrong!"

"I don't believe that our luck can be so bad. There is a 3.1% chance that we will be hit!"

Wei Rong smiled wryly, subconsciously reached out to touch the tip of his nose, and turned his head to look aside.

"Xiao Wang, have the test results come out?"

The researcher named Xiao Wang had a look of anxiety on his face: "Academician Wei, you'll be fine soon, just wait!"

"..."

Wei Rong withdrew his gaze, and his lips were slightly white.

The waiting time is extremely tormented.

After all, in a sense, this section of carbon nanotubes is already the hope of the whole laboratory!

"The result is out!"

"1590Gpa!"

Xiao Wang's face was full of excitement, and he raised his arms and shouted: "Professor Lu, we succeeded!"

The moment they heard the shout, Lu Yongchang and Wei Rong immediately stood up from their chairs!

In order to avoid errors, the two conducted several tests again.

Fortunately, this multi-walled carbon nanotube did not live up to the expectations of the entire laboratory.

"1590Gpa..." Wei Rong stared blankly at the test results in front of him, and muttered to himself, "Unbelievable..."

As for Lu Yongchang, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a success.

In just a few months, the entire laboratory has produced more than 6000 samples.

With such a huge workload, even if there are many scientific researchers in the laboratory, the tasks shared by each person are still very heavy.

Looking at the bright smiles on the faces of the surrounding scientific researchers, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Lu Yongchang's mouth.

But soon, he withdrew himself from the joy of success.

"Academician Wei, it's not time to celebrate yet!"

Lu Yongchang reminded softly: "Next, we need to solve the problem of industrial preparation of this multi-walled carbon nanotube."

Wei Rong was stunned for a moment, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious.

"Professor, how many carbon nanotubes do you think we need to prepare?"

After this incident, Wei Rong completely abandoned the old ideas in his heart.

At least, Lu Yongchang's scientific research intuition is trustworthy!

Lu Yongchang pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "At least it must be at the kilometer level."

"Also, I will leave it to you to solve the industrial preparation plan!"

As he spoke, he patted Wei Rong's shoulder meaningfully.

Wei Rong: "???"

"what?"

Although he had heard people say that Professor Lu had the habit of being a "hands-off shopkeeper", he never expected that this scene would happen so quickly!

"Ah what?" Lu Yongchang twitched his mouth and said angrily, "There are still many details of the space elevator that have not been perfected. I don't have so much time to solve the cable problem."

Wei Rong: "..."

"Okay, okay..."

Seeing the expression on Wei Rong's face, Lu Yongchang nodded in satisfaction.

Although it was ugly, he could still see the excitement hidden in the smile!

Academician Wei is also looking forward to this mission!

While thinking, Lu Yongchang turned and walked towards the gate of the carbon nano laboratory.

……

After leaving the task of industrial preparation of kilometer-scale carbon nanotubes to Wei Rong, Lu Yongchang returned to the office.
