After returning to the Jiangcheng headquarters, Yi Xiaochuan made a detailed plan for the next work goals.
There are three goals. The first and most urgent one is to upgrade informatics to level 3 and unlock digital life.
Just by looking at the name, you can tell that this is something like artificial intelligence. If you can develop it, it will definitely be of great use to you.
This baby is worth the wait.
As for the second goal, the preliminary work to prove the Goldbach conjecture has been basically completed. By spending time and energy step by step, we can put a perfect end to this world-class conjecture that has lasted nearly three hundred years.
After this conjecture was proved, Xiao Yi's status in the mathematics world could be considered as ascending to the throne.
There will be very few mathematicians who can match him.
He will be a real big shot in this field.
As for ordinary people asking what the use of mathematics is, can it be applied to the military industry to enhance our country's military strength
cannot.
Can it be applied to agriculture and benefit the Chinese people like the hybrid rice developed by Yuan Da Druid
cannot.
Can it change our lives like the new lithium battery before
Still can't.
Many people will ask, what’s the point of studying this and that
Aren’t you a top student
Make controlled nuclear fission!
Get a mecha!
Build a spaceship!
Get energy weapons!
I didn’t know that scientists are divided into different fields!
Moreover, many of the things that scientists study, speculate, and imagine do not immediately show their effects.
Hundreds of years ago, rubbing fur against a glass rod could attract scraps of paper from the table.
The scientists were ecstatic.
Others ask, what’s the point
The answer is a rhetorical question: What can a newborn baby do in the future
Similarly, the Goldbach conjecture has not found any direct use so far, and the Goldbach conjecture still has no practical significance for our real life.
However, countless people still spend their entire lives studying this type of mathematical problems because mathematics is the language of expression of all sciences and the foundation of all disciplines.
In layman's terms, if the laws of number theory are discovered, humans may be able to understand many things that currently seem mysterious to us.
If expressed in a language with a stronger religious connotation, it means "by studying axiomatic mathematical problems such as the Goldbach conjecture, we can find the formula used by God, Buddha, Nuwa... to create the world and us."
Through mathematics, we understand ourselves, the world, and the universe.
The third goal is naturally to collect materials for the "Fortune Teller" potion.
0.1 gram of dust left after the death of the soul can be given to Mr. and Mrs. Liu. After the evil ghost is destroyed, not much material can be left, but as long as you collect more, 0.1 gram of soul soil can be easily obtained.
The most difficult items to obtain are naturally the spiritual turtle shell and the spiritual yarrow.
There are many animals awakening now, and some even threaten human safety, but most of them are the product of failed awakenings, such as zombie dogs and zombie cats.
There are very few animals that can successfully survive being out of control. If we further narrow it down to turtles, there may not be many such cases in all of China.
However, even if there are fewer, those turtle farmers can find them. As for plant awakening, especially things like yarrow, it must be very tiring to find them!
Xiao Yi specifically looked up information about yarrow. Both tortoise shells and yarrow were tools used for divination in ancient times.
There is indeed a reason why the "Face Reader" potion uses one of these two as the main ingredient.
Why did ancient people use yarrow to seek divination instead of other calculation tools such as tree branches, grains, chess pieces, etc.
According to the ancient classics quoted in Yiwei Qianzaodu, "Yarrow grows on the ground, withers and dies in Yin, and is one thousand years old. At one hundred years old, it grows forty-nine stems, enough to support the number of heaven and earth. At five hundred years old, it gradually becomes dry and solid. At seven hundred years old, it has no branches or leaves. At nine hundred years old, it is purple like iron. At one thousand years old, there is purple air above, and a spirit dragon and a divine turtle lying below."
Fortunately, only one of these two things is needed, so just contact someone!
Zhang Wei has connections and is familiar with the team leaders of various provinces and cities in South China. It only takes a phone call to get them there.
The potion materials cannot be rushed, but informatics level 3 is right in front of us.
In addition, after Zhang with squinting eyes raised one million yuan from Xiao Yi, the development progress of the mecha was greatly improved. He even hired several mechanical engineering teachers who were interested in this area from Southern Anhui University of Technology to work together on the research.
Xiao Yi has seen the drawings. It is a powered exoskeleton armor.
This power armor uses sensors to collect information about the user's activities, which is then transmitted to an information processor for processing, and then the corresponding mechanical components are activated to output energy.
There are many types of sensors used in powered exoskeletons, including angle sensors, electromyography sensors, ground sensors, muscle pressure sensors, etc. These are definitely something that Zhang, who only has some knowledge of black technology in engineering, cannot solve by himself.
Xiao Yi looked at the spending of funds and found that most of them were used to purchase these components.
The power is naturally electric, and the new lithium battery can meet this demand.
In some senses, powered exoskeletons may be more complex than robots like the T600 from The Terminator.
Because the powered exoskeleton needs to determine the user's movement intention in a very short time and provide appropriate assistance.
According to the sensor purchased by Zhang with slanted eyes, it uses muscle pressure sensors to collect user movements. It is not very advanced, but it is not backward either.
When a person bends his elbow, the muscle fiber tissue in the upper arm will be close together, thereby affecting the movement of the tendons, and the most obvious manifestation is the bulge of the muscle.
The muscle pressure sensor in the powered exoskeleton in contact with the skin collects the strength and direction of muscle tightening, thereby sensing the operator's movement intention, and it will convey the collected data to the information processor.
The information processor calculates how to move the exoskeleton to minimize the user's effort, and then transmits the instructions to the relevant joints, generating precise force through the transmission devices inside the joints, thereby achieving synchronization with human movements.
Of course, there is still a little time lag, but it is controlled to an imperceptible level. With the help of modern information technology, the powered exoskeleton adjusts every joint of the body thousands of times per second, making it almost imperceptible to the user.
Old Zhang looked at Xiao Yi pitifully with squinting eyes. He hoped that Xiao Yi could give him the most essential help to build a most advanced and efficient information processing system.
Lao Zhang was rubbing his hands. His fingernails were covered in oil and his body was dirty. He had just come from the laboratory!
"Brother Xiaoyi, why don't you start a company and I, Zhang Tao, will work for you. As long as you can make a Gundam, I, Zhang, will be yours... All the results of the research will belong to you. Just give me a most advanced Gundam in the end. I have been fascinated by cars and tinkering with machinery since I was a teenager. Now I can't satisfy myself by modifying cars. I will not rest in peace until I make a Gundam..."
Looking at Lao Zhang's hopeful eyes, Xiao Yi felt that this was possible.
Setting up a small company, setting a small goal, and aligning everything with Stark Industries seems like a good idea.
"Leave this information processing system to me. You can handle the company and other things. If the money is not enough, I will give you another million..."
By the way, you can also upgrade informatics to level 3 and activate digital life, killing two birds with one stone!
