I Am a Great Scientist

Chapter 194: basic science

Views:

Basic science is a very complex subject. Many research results have been shelved because current productivity cannot meet production requirements and cannot be applied. However, basic science research is the most important and core field for the development of human society.

Basic science is a research field that cannot increase GDP, create employment, or contribute tax revenue, but it is very expensive because it is related to the future of the entire human civilization.

With the theoretical support of existing basic science, if we can maximize human production technology, create quantum computers, create large-scale controllable nuclear fusion, create spaceships to fly out of the solar system... and other high-tech products, it will not be a problem, because, humans Theoretical research in basic science has long exceeded the productivity of modern human civilization.

Basic scientific research is a great undertaking that contributes to the entire scientific and technological civilization of mankind. Many unknown researchers have been engaged in basic science research for ten years with their hobbies, interests, and sense of responsibility.

The results of basic science will last for decades and will never even have so-called practical significance, let alone be transformed into projects. However, to paraphrase the famous saying of American scientist Wilson: These studies make this country worthy of respect.

The "Mirror of True Knowledge" can comprehensively analyze the details of matter. If used properly, the Mirror of True Knowledge can be of great help in basic science, materials field, material exploration, emergence of new substances, particles, wave sources... and many other aspects. .

"Boss, boss! The correct formula of Ti-based alloy has been obtained. Do we want to conduct robot testing now?" Zhou Xiaozhi called Zhou Xingdao, who was in a distracted state.

"Okay, let's test it first!" Zhou Xing came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and nodded.

Basic scientific research is very complex. If there is no hurry, we should first solve the problem of intelligent robots. Problems that can be solved with more efforts cannot be abandoned halfway. What's more, basic scientific research is still a very expensive project. If intelligent robots Once the research and development is done, you can still make a lot of money to fill the gap!

The scene of Zhou Xing and Zhou Xiaozhi busy testing intelligent robots appeared again in the virtual laboratory.

Day after day, after hundreds of experimental corrections and test adjustments, Zhou Xing memorized all the data and then returned to reality. With the help of mechanical engineers, the technology was Restore it.

Similar to a cheating R&D method, the intelligent robot project is progressing at a rapid pace.

In the robotics laboratory on the fourth floor of the Xinhai International Center Building, the robot "Baisha" was busy cleaning the "room" under the watch of mechanical engineers.

Debris is sorted and classified according to different attributes: recyclable, non-recyclable, polluted, metal...etc., cleaning, cleaning up garbage, placing items... Baisha tidies up the laboratory diligently Her movements were not stiff at all, just like a hard-working, capable and experienced "housewife". In less than fifteen minutes, "Baisha" completed all the test content and tidied up the messy "room" Qi, clean.

"That's it. The movements are so smooth. Mr. Zhou, we succeeded! We succeeded!"

"Mr. Zhou, I don't want any bonuses. Please reward me with this 'White Sand'! It can work better than my mother!"

"Yes! Yes! With 'White Sand', I can live a magical life where I can put my clothes on, my hands for food, and my mouth to open my mouth!"

"Mr. Zhou, I'm begging you too!"

“…”

The engineers looked at Zhou Xing excitedly, and each one cried and begged.

The character of engineering men determines that they will not use sweet words to coax girls, so most of them are single. The thing they dislike doing the most because they are obsessed with research is housework. If they can have such a "white sand", they will be able to do more in the future. They don't have to worry about housework anymore.

"When 'White Sand' reaches mass production, all employees of the company will have internal price purchase discounts. We have worked hard for so long, are you sure you don't want project bonuses? This will be a big loss!" Zhou Xing looked at the engineers with a smile on his face. reminded.

"Haha, Mr. Zhou, you are right, we should wait for mass production!"

"Then let's just bear with it a little longer! The mass production of 'White Sand' should be soon!"

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for reminding me, haha, we'd better endure it for a while longer!"

“…”

The intelligent robot project is successful. With the treatment of Xingyao Group and the generous project bonus, it is not a problem to buy two or three "Baisha". What's more, the company employees also have a preferential price for the internal purchase of "Baisha". In this way, with the project bonus, Replacing "White Sand" is such a loss! After Zhou Xing's reminder, all the engineers quickly recovered from their anxious state and changed their words one after another.

"Well, Manager Cao, you will be responsible for the technical support of the robot project next. Communicate with the production department, marketing department, and legal department as soon as possible to implement product technical protection, production, and sales work." Zhou Xing looked at Cao Hui ordered.

"Okay! Mr. Zhou." Cao Hui straightened his face and nodded solemnly.

Zhou Xing thought of something. Before leaving, he told Cao Hui, "Make more 'white sand' and run it for testing within the company for a period of time to collect feedback from colleagues. If any problems are found, make timely modifications."

"Mr. Zhou, this is a good idea, I understand!" Cao Hui nodded excitedly.

Zhou Xing nodded with satisfaction and left the robotics laboratory on the fourth floor.

The intelligent robot project has come to an end, and Zhou Xing can retire and become a "hands-off shopkeeper". He needs to think about the research direction of basic science.

The content of basic science is all-encompassing and is a subject that involves most of the knowledge of all mankind, namely mathematics: including algebra, analysis, geometry, statistics, topology, applied mathematics, computational mathematics, computer science...

Physics: including particle physics, condensed matter physics, optics, general relativity, field theory, quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics…

Chemistry: including analytical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, structural chemistry, polymer chemistry…

Biology: including botany, zoology, cell biology, biochemistry, molecular biology, ecology, genetics…

Astronomy: including cosmology, cosmogony, astronomy, radio astronomy, solar system…

It is very challenging to choose a deep, influential, and easy-to-break-through direction among so many basic subjects for in-depth research. Zhou Xing is prepared to spend a lot of time studying these basic knowledge and looking for a suitable research direction.
