Marvel's Return of the Inventor

Mauna Kea Observatory, head office of the global joint deciphering team.

The joint team held a small secret meeting here at the request of two of the world's hottest young scientists.

In addition to Ding Sheng and Catherine, there were also team leaders from various countries headed by academicians Shen Heng and Wharton.

"Dr. Oxton, you said you want to decipher the signal within five days?"

Following Academician Wharton's questions, representatives from various countries pricked up their ears, and even their breathing was much lower than usual.

If this time request had been made by anyone other than Catherine, it would probably have been laughed at or even amused by the code-breaking researchers.

After all, it is not easy for a large project with a construction period of three years to be shortened to six months. This is entirely due to Ding Sheng's plug-in level deciphering program.

On this basis, everyone knows how ridiculous it is to shorten six months to five days.

Coincidentally, the person who made this request was Catherine, so this question was not funny at all, but very serious.

After all, this is Katherine Oxton, and before we recount her various glorious scientific achievements, let’s take a look at what she is called in the latest issue

Reference answers from the scientific community.

"Yes." He nodded solemnly in reference to the answer.

"Leaving aside the possibility of solving the problem within this time, I think everyone has the same doubt as me, why five days?" Academician Wharton asked again.

Catherine and Ding Sheng looked at each other and answered the question in a very short sentence, "The outpost is preparing for a space jump and will arrive in the solar system in five days."

This news was like thunder on the ground, causing the originally quiet office to explode in an instant.

It was okay at first, as the team leaders from each country still maintained smooth communication in English, but as the mood became more and more exciting, everyone began to speak in different languages ​​and couldn't understand each other.

"ieknntedasse?"

“kakэtooглo6ыtь”

"ntceourraitiletre"

"これはどうでしょうか!"

"Πθaμπooσeνaγνeiaut!"

""

Above, and so on.

Fortunately, the team leaders were all mature and prudent people after all. They knew that it was pointless to continue arguing, so they soon began to calm down slowly.

Academician Wharton adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose and took a step forward, "Dr. Oxton, I know I shouldn't deny your professionalism, but are you telling the truth?"

As a result, everyone's eyes were now focused on this young female scientist.

"It's absolutely true." Catherine nodded solemnly again.

"Besides us, does anyone else know this news?" Academician Wharton asked again.

"So it was a secret meeting."

At this moment, the quiet office fell into dead silence.

About two minutes later.

"Hey, Dean Song, I am Shen Heng. I request to recruit all domestic researchers with deciphering qualifications to participate in the 'Civilization Watch' project. Yes, everyone."

"Hello, National Academy of Sciences? I'm Russell Wharton. Operation Mauna Kea is asking for all researchers in the United States who are qualified to decipher. Everyone, whether they are from the National Academy of Engineering, the School of Medicine, or the Natural Foundation. want!"

"Hey, Royal Academy of Sciences? The Royal 009 Project requests the recruitment of all researchers with deciphering qualifications in the UK. I don't care whether you go to the Prime Minister or Her Majesty the Queen. Today, immediately, immediately, we need support!"

"Dear Her Majesty Queen Margrethe, the Copenhagen Decryption Initiative is requesting the recruitment of all researchers with decryption qualifications in the country.

"Operation codename 'nfzx01' requests the Royal Society to urgently recruit all researchers with deciphering qualifications across the country."

“Federal research ministries and science foundations need to get involved, at all costs!”

"Your Highness, although our domestic population is not large, we must go all out, so I suggest that college students across the country can participate. By the way, aren't there two high schools in the country, and outstanding high school students are also required. In short, the more people, the better good!"

"Hey"

No one questioned Catherine, everyone chose to call the home country.

To be honest, this scene scared Ding Sheng a little.

He really didn't expect that not only did no one question Catherine, but they all chose to call the home country and request recruitment.

That's called professionalism!

Seeing the amazing cohesion that broke out when all mankind became a community with a shared future, Ding Sheng felt gratified that he was a part of it.

"Ding, within 24 hours, more than qualified codebreakers can be recruited around the world, and dozens of joint codebreaker bases can be designed to start emergency codebreaking operations. There is a lot of hope within five days."

After receiving the response statements from various countries, Catherine breathed a sigh of relief. It was actually beyond her expectation that so many helpers could be recruited without making the news of the coming outpost battle public.

After all, there has never been such a concerted large-scale joint action in human history.

"It's still not enough." Ding Sheng shook his head slightly. "With the current progress, the situation is not optimistic, and even if the signal is deciphered within five days, we will not have time to respond, so we must be faster."

With his hands on the workbench, Ding Sheng was worried, but his eyes were bright.

"Then we will continue to expand the scope of recruitment. However, the resulting team is too large, has insufficient qualifications, and is difficult to cooperate with many other factors, which may affect the current progress." Catherine expressed her worries.

"I do have an idea."

At times like this, Ding Sheng's mind would be open.

"Tell me something."

"Catherine, have you ever played games? Video games, online games, etc." Ding Sheng suddenly asked.

"Of course, your thoughts are related to games?"

"No one on earth has ever faced an alien civilization, so this deciphering operation is different from any previous deciphering work, and there is no reference object. We can only rely on so-called qualifications and more importantly, imagination to complete it. This project, but the fact is that with the signal decipherer, imagination is more important." Ding Sheng said.

"I agree with this." Catherine nodded.

Deciphering alien signals is to use signals to restore the text and language information of alien civilizations. Imagination is indeed very important.

"Some people have imagination. Think about it, if it is no longer limited to researchers, but involves teachers, students, workers, white-collar workers, and thousands of passers-by around the world, what will be the effect? "Ding Sheng continued.

"Everyone's imagination may be limited, but if you add up a little, and the power of more people is greater, the effect will definitely be very good. The only problem is to find a way to involve everyone in the game. You just said game, no Wrong, most people have played games, so your plan is a game."

Catherine's IQ is truly incredible. She can get through with just a few clicks, and she can understand everything at once, like mercury pouring down the ground. "Games need a carrier, and this carrier can be a computer, but the penetration rate of smartphones is higher. I understand, Ding, you I want to integrate signal decipherers and alien signals into a mobile game, so that everyone around the world can use their imagination and find answers in the game.”

"Yes, I can make such a game in a short period of time, but now that the situation is urgent, I'm afraid I can't go through the normal processes of shelf and promotion. In this matter, people may lose a little bit. Autonomy," Ding Sheng added.

"I didn't hear clearly, what's the right? Oh, by the way, I remembered that there is still one data that I haven't processed yet. You should be busy first."

Catherine said, turning and entering the laboratory next door.

"Guan Ju, let's start."

So, the cheating combination was officially launched.

"Ding Sheng, I need to determine the name of this game."

"It's called 'You can't do anything with your phone except making calls until no one clears the level.'" Yes, this is the essence of Ding Sheng's game.

"Isn't the name too long?"

"It's called 'brainstorming', and a huge bonus pool will be set up. Anyone who finds clues will get a bonus."

Ding Sheng said he had some understanding of human nature. After all, he was forcing people to install games on their phones and then forced them to play. It was appropriate to provide some benefits as motivation.

"The name Brainstorm has already been taken."

“Get it taken off the shelves.”

three hours.

A puzzle game called "With the strong "promotion" of Guan Ju, it has successfully landed on every smartphone in the world.

Then another five minutes later, everyone found that except for basic functions such as making and receiving calls, sending and receiving messages, and navigation, all entertainment-related functions on their mobile phones were locked in this game.

This is a game that seriously infringes on the right to freedom of life. Almost everyone's thought is that even if I never play games for the rest of my life and throw my phone off the 18th floor, I will never play this game.

However, after seeing the clue rewards of up to 100 million US dollars, which can be stacked up to 1 million US dollars, most people said that although this game is still a bit difficult, it is really fun, with a simple interface, beautiful painting style, and smooth operation. Whoever plays is my friend.

At the same time, what is surprising is that mainstream mobile systems such as S and Android, as well as major mobile phone manufacturers around the world, have chosen to remain silent after receiving countless complaints and abuse.

One is silence on the technological gap, and the other is silence on the fact that entrepreneurs understand the truth behind the Yidiudi incident better than ordinary people.

In this way, with the invincible advantage of "the game and the enterprise are flying together, and the routines share the same prize pool", in just half a day, it swept the world, and the number of online participants at the peak was close to one billion.

From two hundred thousand to one billion, at least the number of people is a quantum leap.

Next, it depends on the quality.
