Even if Ye Ming doesn't have the slightest bit of the so-called Virgin plot, as a scientist, this kind of weapon that destroys and destroys the planet... is not in line with the style and feelings of a scientist.
But...when Ye Ming heard the word "Destroy the Stars", everyone present was visibly shocked at the same time.
"Can it be built now? I mean, after the lunar accelerator is built."
"Sorry, it's not possible yet. It needs a larger accelerator to create the main body to accommodate more two-dimensional expansion space. According to estimates... it will be a planet-level accelerator."
Upon hearing this, everyone took a breath of cold air.
At this time, someone else raised their hand, and then asked rather hastily: "Professor Ye, will the space elevator become a necessity?"
Ye Ming coughed lightly and looked at where the sound came from.
Those are the participants from Ni Country.
Immediately, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
——Since China has taken the lead in various space projects, you said that some countries, such as Europe and the United States, etc., are not in a hurry? That is obviously impossible.
But the reason why a super project is a super project is that... to build this thing requires all the efforts of the country and even the whole world.
If you create another one, let alone whether it has that kind of ability, even if it does... it won't help!
Therefore, Europe, the United States, etc. have been finding new ways.
The space elevator is one of their ideas.
After all...human beings are destined to go into space, and once the space elevator is built, it means that the progress of the space city will be greatly accelerated, and people can travel back and forth at will.
In a more profound sense, this can also break the domestic situation of being the only one in the space field and "one company is the only one".
The so-called face is earned by oneself. If you don't show any strength, then in the future, under the new framework, you won't be able to say even a single word?
As far as Ye Ming knows, Europe and the United States have probably solved the material problem - in fact, they use super strong carbon nanotubes as connecting materials - this idea appeared 20 years ago, but it was hindered by the carbon nanotubes at that time.
The cost of tubes is too high and carbon nanotubes larger than fifty centimeters cannot be produced and can only exist in imagination.
So far, the single-minded Niguo people have completed the generation of ultra-long carbon nanotubes with the support of the chip material field.
It’s not difficult to understand. After all, carbon nanotubes were discovered by people from Japan.
It is said that it has reached tens of meters, and it is far from the upper limit...
This means that the space elevator has certain feasibility in terms of materials.
The reason why it is certain is that...in addition to its upper limit, the space elevator also needs to solve more problems. The simplest requirement is a transfer platform-if you follow the structure of a traditional elevator, you can only say that it is like looking at science fiction works.
Enough.
According to the design, with the blessing of carbon nanotubes, the space elevator also needs a platform that can remain stable in the air to share its own weight and the weight of the car body. Instead of saying that you make a few carbon nanotubes tens of thousands of kilometers long,
Then hang it in the air, and then you can drive the car to and from the earth and space.
But... such a transfer platform can only be realized with anti-gravity technology.
However, China, which has anti-gravity technology, never mentions the space elevator, but instead stretches the production capacity of shipbuilding dumplings to the limit... which makes people angry.
Seeing Ye Ming looking at him, the representative of Ni Country smiled and nodded with expectation in his eyes.
Ye Ming kept his vision unchanged, but looked at the leader from the corner of his eye. When he saw the leader shaking his head without leaving any trace, Ye Ming laughed.
There is certainly a reason why space elevators are not mentioned in China.
Apart from the fact that the seemingly reliable information is currently in the hands of the Ni people, the most important thing is... it's not necessary.
"The premise for building a space elevator is that the space transport spacecraft has insufficient carrying capacity and the carrying cost is too high. But... currently, as far as our spacecraft technology is concerned, this problem does not exist."
The Ni Kingdom representative was slightly startled, with disbelief clearly showing on his face.
Ye Ming smiled slightly again.
"Sir, a common sense is that the transportation capacity of trains is far inferior to that of freighters."
Following his words, the face of the Ni Country representative immediately became a little ugly.
Ye Ming also withdrew his gaze, looked at the venue again, and opened the documents at the same time.
"The following is some scientific research progress on Blue Star so far, which involves the photosynthetic enzymes necessary for artificial starch synthesis, as well as the research progress on some genes that extend the life span of mice."
…
Ye Ming only attended two days of the three-day meeting.
The next night, he did not have dinner with everyone present, but came to the Shangyue International Hotel.
Professor Tang Zhigao, Professor Chen Xiaofang, and Musk, who had not seen each other in person for a long time, stood in a row at the entrance of the hotel and welcomed his arrival with smiles.
"Teacher Tang, Teacher Chen..."
Ye Ming jumped out of the car and walked quickly towards Old Tang and others. When he shook hands with Musk, he casually called "Teacher Ma".
It’s been a long time since I last saw him. The white hair on Musk’s temples is getting thicker and thicker, and the whole person is visibly getting older.
"Come on, let's go inside and chat - I heard there are two people from Microsoft and Intel, why don't you see anyone?" Ye Ming glanced behind the three of them, said hello to Yang Chaoxiong and asked with a smile.
"They are attending the Semiconductor Industry Summit tonight."
"Oh, well, we are indeed not in the semiconductor industry." Ye Ming laughed, then stood still and made a gesture of invitation to Old Tang.
No matter how powerful he was, he was still a student in front of Old Tang and Old Chen.
The rake cannot be placed upside down.
Professor Tang was very satisfied with Ye Ming's approach and took the lead in walking into the hotel after pretending to be humble.
…
After entering an absolutely soundproof private room, the five people sat down separately.
The people present were all men from science and engineering, and they couldn't be polite, so they sat down. Professor Tang and Professor Chen looked at each other and immediately asked: "Is there any news you can tell?"
Ye Ming was playing fast. Hearing this, he glanced at Musk, who had been staring at him since he entered the door, and asked with a smile: "What news does the teacher want to hear?"
"Hey... of course you are talking about all the news!" Professor Tang smiled and glared at him: "As long as you dare to speak, I dare to listen."
"Well, then, what I can reveal is probably..."
Ye Ming looked at Musk as he spoke.
The latter immediately looked at him nervously.
"A preliminary consensus has been reached, and a new human joint organization will be established."
"On this basis, all human industrial industries will be comprehensively reorganized, and human beings will completely enter an intelligent production society."
】
"At the same time, human beings... will also completely liberate productivity."
After his words fell, Tang, Chen and Ma were stunned and speechless.
After a while, Professor Tang took a deep breath, his eyes flickering with uncertainty.
"What happened?"
——Everyone here is not a fool. To unite mankind, it cannot be an ordinary "common destiny". Such a union is only possible when... we encounter a crisis that needs to be faced together.
