Chen Xuyang never thought that he, who was almost 70 years old, would one day return to class, and he would return to class in this way. The person who lectured him was not one of the world's famous scientific figures, but a young man who was said to have just graduated from graduate school.

And according to the information he has, this young man has just reached adulthood this year.

What's even more frightening is that he is probably not the best student in the class. After all, he can't understand what the teacher teaches well.

Chen Xuyang only felt that he was hit hard by Hou Lang.

Especially when Wang Yufei started to draw pictures and explain in detail, he seemed to feel that Wang Yufei's tone was starting to become a little impatient, and he looked at these students with eyes full of disgust, as if he was silently questioning: "Can't it be done so easily?"

Understand? What do you do for food?"

Yes, Chen Xuyang is sure of this. I recall when he was tutoring doctoral students, if he encountered students who needed him to explain repeatedly to understand, he would silently question them like this. Even if they were too stupid, he would directly point them out.

Come on, have you listened carefully?

However, he is the one who doesn't understand now, and his mood is very complicated.

I am happy that there are successors to China's scientific research, but also sad because I seem to be really old.

"Does everyone almost understand?" Wang Yufei confirmed.

Pan Wenyue stopped asking questions.

Although eyes were still on him, Pan Wenyue decided not to care.

It is difficult to completely understand these difficult problems. Now that I don't understand, you can study it slowly when you go back. I always ask him what it means.

"Ahem." Chen Xuyang couldn't help coughing twice.

Wang Yufei's eyes fell on this old scientist.

"Well, I have a question. The constants introduced in the two equations are not the same. Does this mean that there is no third constant that can explain all of this." Chen Xuyang asked.

Wang Yufei nodded in approval, and then explained: "My understanding of this issue is this. First, we boldly assume that only three constants are needed to construct all the constants of the entire natural sciences. Now we determine that the speed of light is the same as Planck's

Constants can solve many problems for us, so do we need a third fixed constant to build our universe? I think we do, but before we find this constant, we can use a simpler method."

"This method is to analyze specific problems in detail. When solving different problems, we introduce different constants. The diameter of the ground state hydrogen atom, the mass of a single electron, the universal gravitational constant, etc. can be selected. Although using these constants cannot achieve perfection

, but by introducing these constants we have been able to derive most of the required parameters."

"This is currently not completely determined by the natural science system that our civilization has mastered. The entire scientific system needs to continue to be studied to find the most suitable third constant. The speed of light belongs to electrodynamics, and Planck's constant belongs to quantum mechanics. The perfect third constant

The three constants are currently unknown, but may exist in any physical phenomenon. For example, dark matter or antimatter."

"But now we don't know, we can only solve it in a simpler way. But if you can notice the connection between the seven equations, you will find that when all seven equations are solved, there will be a final

The solution is..."

Having said this, Wang Yufei looked back to a corner of the blackboard and wrote down a more complex equation.

A more elegant equation.

"I personally think that the final solution is contained in this equation. If we can conquer all seven equations, we can solve the final equation and get the final third perfect constant! Can you understand this?

"

…

The meeting is finally over, or a unique course is over.

After agreeing to communicate with several scientists via email at any time, Wang Yufei was finally allowed to return to his laboratory.

Wang Yufei first found Lu Yuxin directly.

Both she and Shi Xulin have their own dedicated operating rooms in the laboratory. This design is more convenient for finding people and talking.

Of course, the original intention of the design is not just that.

But Wang Yufei believes that if two data monitoring personnel work in an operation room, they will inevitably communicate at any time, and the conclusions reached by the two people together are sometimes difficult to verify. But if they are separated, it will

There is an advantage. When two people compile data, they can compare it. If they reach the same conclusion without communication, it means that the conclusion is most likely correct. If it is different, it would be better to verify it carefully.

.

So it's just convenient to have heart-to-heart conversations.

"Is the meeting over?" Seeing Wang Yufei walk through the door, Lu Yuxin turned back and glanced, then turned her attention to the computer screen again.

If Wang Yufei and Lu Yuxin have anything in common, it must be that they both concentrate on their work when they are busy at work.

"Yeah, by the way, let me ask you something. Is my current IQ really far different from normal people?" Wang Yufei asked.

Hearing this question, Lu Yuxin stopped what she was doing, turned around and took a deep look at Wang Yufei, and replied in a relieved tone: "Have you finally realized this? I told you this a long time ago.

Yes, you are a big monster. How did you experience it?"

Wang Yufei was silent.

How did he experience it? It was hard to tell Lu Yuxin directly. At today's meeting, he gave lectures to many great scientists who could be his grandfather. He felt that there was no need to say more. The uncles, uncles, teachers, and professors in the audience were sure

He actually had to repeat what he could understand.

This was beyond his expectation.

After arriving at No. 1 Middle School in the provincial capital, he had an idea of ​​the sudden surge in his IQ. Many questions that he couldn't understand before could now be understood at a glance, and his memory was even more frightening.

Whether it was his participation in the Mathematical Olympiad or his performance on Crazy Brain, he believed that he had a high probability of becoming a genius.

But that's all. He might learn faster than others, remember more deeply than others, and even have some advanced ideas pop up in his mind from time to time. But he didn't expect that he seemed to be better than the most advanced person in the world.

A group of excellent people are much smarter.

This made Wang Yufei suddenly feel a little worried.

Do you feel like you are a bit like a psychopath?

"Stop talking. It seems that a lot of stories happened at today's meeting. Is it because you proved Yufei's conjecture at the meeting, but found that none of the experts attending the meeting today could keep up with your ideas?" Lu Yuxin gave

made his own guess.

This is the benefit of finding a smart partner.

Being as smart as Lu Yuxin can always bring great comfort to Wang Yufei at such times.

It helps him not feel like he is the only monster in the world.

"Absolutely." Wang Yufei nodded, not wanting to show off anything. After all, there was nothing to show off.

After thinking for a long time, he was able to understand what he had probably experienced.

A cultivation far beyond the current civilization has become a secret that he must spend his whole life hiding.

His only doubt now is probably how many seeds this civilization has planted in this world.

But judging from the current situation, there is a high probability that he is the only one.

Otherwise, others would not have made any movement until now.

He feels very lonely. The key is that he doesn't know what his ultimate mission is.

But as far as the current situation is concerned, the formulas that pop up in his mind seem to be pushing him towards becoming a great scientist.

Well, for now, promoting scientific and technological progress in the entire world seems to be a top priority, and quantum intelligence is the top priority.

If there was a chance, he felt that he should go back to Daowang Village. It would be best if he could find traces of the old man. If he was still there.

However, when he went through complex psychological activities and looked at the girl opposite, he found that the look in her eyes was a little strange.

It seems like there is a trace of pity?

Wang Yufei said in a muffled voice: "Ahem, it's actually nothing."

"I understand."

Lu Yuxin nodded clearly, then stood up and patted Wang Yufei on the shoulder: "At most, you will be regarded as a monster. Don't be afraid."

"Huh? Work, work! Show me today's operating data report!"

…

Not afraid? How could you not be afraid?

Sundar Pichai just feels exhausted.

Discussions about the third constant conjecture are still heated in the academic world.

Of course, he does not need to be too concerned with these academic issues, but the situation he is facing now is that it is really possible for the Chinese competitor to design a powerful quantum computer in a very short time.

It is indeed possible.

Experts who have not heard of this all agree that the third constant conjecture proposed by Wang Yufei can solve many theoretical problems of quantum mechanics? And when these theoretical problems are solved, we will know that the other party has designed a quantum brain with powerful performance.

In other words, Google may lose in the future quantum brain battle!

Damn it, Google is going to lose!

Not for a $500 million bet.

In fact, no one cares about betting against Changxiang Technology. Although the value is very high, no one really cares! For example, Sundar Pichai never thought that Changxiang Technology would lose.

He really gave money, so he didn't think about giving it to the Chinese company if he lost.

After all, you didn’t sign a contract, right?

They are all big international companies, who would be serious about such a thing?

The key point is that in order to research quantum computers, Google has already invested more than 20 billion U.S. dollars. More than 20 billion U.S. dollars! It’s not kyat, not Zimbabwean currency, it’s the U.S. dollar that is universally accepted by the world. Even Google

It takes one or two years to earn so much, and you can't spend it arbitrarily or distribute dividends to shareholders casually.

And this is not just a matter of money. Quantum computers have always been Google's key project for the future. Since the theory of quantum supremacy was proposed, everyone has placed high hopes on quantum computers.

When Google's universal quantum computer is officially launched, it means that the whole world will have to pay protection fees to Google in the future. In addition, the remaining computing power can also be rented out. In addition to getting huge rents, future new

Materials include but are not limited to metal materials, composite materials, nanomaterials, etc., and Google can get a piece of the pie.

But if the quantum computer is built first by the Chinese, the problem will be huge.

Not to mention that most of the more than 20 billion US dollars have been wasted. If Google wants to borrow other people's quantum computing power, it will have to spend money. In the future, if Google wants to keep its own database, it will have to pay protection fees to the other party. This

That’s the most intolerable thing!

Yes, it's protection money.

When a truly universal quantum computer is built, quantum encryption algorithms will be needed to protect current databases and customer passwords. But before the advent of quantum computers, existing quantum encryption is not very mature...

Why did the world suddenly become so scary?

Of course, as a president, there is one skill that you must definitely master, and that is pressure transfer.

He can't be the only one who feels the pressure. The person in charge of the quantum computer project should be under the greatest pressure at this time.

So, Sundar Pichai directly called Esslinger and John Martinez over.

Yes, these two people are currently the most important team leaders of Google’s quantum computer project.

Among them, Esslinger is the person in charge of the entire quantum computer project, while John Martinez is the team leader of the quantum computer hardware.

John joined the company six years ago at Esslinger's invitation while he was a professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara.

Yes, it is the Santa Barbara campus. Although the name sounds a little weird, you can never doubt its authenticity, because this is not only a century-old school, but also a famous elite university in the United States.

A top research public university that focuses on research science and has a very high academic reputation.

Being able to serve as a professor at such an elite institution shows John Martinez's ability.

In fact, all the hardware facilities of the quantum computer demonstrated by Google at the last press conference were designed and manufactured under John's leadership.

"So you two, are you confident that Google's quantum computer will go a step further in eight months? Can it complete more complex calculations or run for a long time?" Sundar summoned the two and asked straight to the point.

road.

He was under a lot of pressure, and he had to make them realize how much pressure he had put on them.

The two looked at each other, and then John Martinez said bluntly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Pichai, are you saying that it will take eight months for our quantum computer to directly break through to a relatively mature stage?

?”

Sundar nodded slightly, yes, that's what he meant.

Otherwise, Google’s quantum supremacy will become a joke.

However, the answer he received was far from satisfactory.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Pichai, maybe you don't quite understand the development laws of science. In eight months, I personally think that a small breakthrough in the current quantum computer technology is already remarkable. If you want to make a big breakthrough,

I personally think a breakthrough is unlikely."
