Chapter 363 Technology Development Trends in the Next 30 Years
"Liu Lang, it's like this. There are many great men in this world, such as Einstein, Newton, and Gauss. Their achievements have changed mankind and greatly promoted the development of world science and technology. Even thousands of years later, future generations will
Pay homage to their achievements.
And your talent, in my opinion, is definitely no less than these people. If you work harder the day after tomorrow, I believe you can achieve less than these people. This can be seen from your taking this exam, so I personally think
, you still have to develop in mathematics, physics and chemistry, such as physics, I am engaged in research in this area, and now teach at Stanford University
, if you are interested in the subject of physics, you can study at Stanford University... Of course, Huaxia University is also very good, but in today's world, the best technology is still in the United States, and China is still lagging behind. As long as you learn more
With good scientific and technological knowledge, you can drive the development of domestic disciplines after returning to China. This is the most important thing, isn't it?"
Ding Huaizhong, like professors of other disciplines at Huaxia University, began to poach others.
"Haha, Professor Ding, you are right. Einstein's theory of relativity is the most cutting-edge technology today, as well as quantum mechanics. Without quantum mechanics, many scientific research experiments would be impossible, and these experiments will have a profound impact on the future of the world.
Development is of great significance, and I deeply understand the importance of the three disciplines of mathematics, physics, and chemistry.
However, I think the importance of these sciences to mankind does not lie in theoretical research, but in the widespread application of these theories in practice, such as transistor technology, which is what quantum mechanics should be. The birth of many new materials is also the result of quantum mechanics.
In practice, the positioning of satellites is mainly due to the theory of relativity. Only through application can we change the world. And engineering machinery is application. If we want to change my country as quickly as possible, application technology is the most important.
Yes, Professor Ding, don’t you think so?”
Liu Lang's words made Ding Huaizhong stunned.
"This...is this what a child can say? Many entrepreneurs and even politicians don't have such a sharp vision!"
"Liu Lang, I can't believe it! Not only do you have superior intelligence, you also have your own judgment on the world's development situation, and I have to say that your judgment is correct...but...how on earth can you see this?
?”
Ding Huaizhong simply could not imagine how Liu Lang could have such a profound understanding at his age.
Liu Lang was slightly startled.
"Damn, I talked too much!"
"Hey, Professor Ding, you've given me the award. I don't have much in-depth research. I just came to the United States for five days and saw a lot of technologies that other countries don't have, so I got some ideas, that's all!"
"That's all?"
Ding Huaizhong's eyes widened.
"Yes! That's all!"
Liu Lang nodded.
"It takes five days to figure out a problem that others have been unable to figure out for decades. What kind of brain is this? It seems that Liu Lang's thinking cannot be measured by common sense. This may be a genius idea!"
Ding Huaizhong sighed slightly. People think more deeply in one minute than others think in a year. There is no reason to explain to a genius.
"Liu Lang, you even know that the satellite positioning system is an application of the theory of relativity. It seems that you also know a lot about today's technology! Okay, how about we talk about this knowledge?"
Ding Huaizhong no longer persuades the other party to "change careers."
"Liu Lang, can you tell me how technology will develop in the future?"
Ding Huaizhong asked.
"How will it develop? It's hard to say, but I think computers will first develop at an unimaginable speed. The first is the popularity of personal computers. In ten years, personal computers will become the most common household appliances. With the personal computer
With the popularization of computers, computer software will also have an unimaginable leap. Painting, writing, images, music
These software will also be opened up... This is a personal computer, but I think these are just the initial stages. If it continues to develop, it should be networked. In my vision, this network can bring all the people in the world together.
Personal computers are connected together, knowledge sharing, information transparency, and real-time news are the basic conditions for networking.
As computers continue to develop, the computing speed can be greatly enhanced, to the point that people cannot imagine, such as sequencing biological genes, reorganizing multi-molecule materials, etc.
With the help of powerful computers, a large number of new materials have been created, which can replace traditional materials such as steel and cement. There are even biological materials and genetic technology that can help humans defeat diseases."
Liu Lang briefly talked about the major trends in science and technology in the world in the next thirty years. In fact, thirty years later, many of the technologies he mentioned have been realized, but now, great scientists like Ding Huaizhong are dumbfounded after hearing this.
He sat there motionless - stunned.
"Liu Lang, what we physicists pay attention to is bold predictions and careful verification. However, no one can make such bold predictions as yours. But if you think about it carefully, there may be a glimmer of possibility. For example, now we have computers.
, Of course, you said that every household has a computer, which has not yet been realized, but I agree with the trend you mentioned.
And the networking you mentioned is something I know very little about, but knowledge sharing and information transparency are what we scientists aspire to, and I very much hope that they will be realized in the future!"
"Professor Ding, I'm just guessing. I don't know if it can be realized, so you don't have to worry about it."
Liu Lang shrugged.
"Imagination is the source of invention and creation, and your "wild ideas" are still based on the current stage of technology. I don't think there is such a person in the United States, and there is no such person in the world, that is, you Liu
Only Lang can do it.”
Liu Lang's predictions for the future had exceeded Ding Huaizhong's "imagination", and he could only respond with some polite words.
"By the way, Professor Ding, you have lived in the United States for many years and are familiar with all walks of life in the United States. Do you know where I can buy AOD stoves?"
Liu Lang suddenly asked.
Huaxia Industrial Technology and Chen Chunsheng are now cooperating to manufacture air conditioners. The design is no longer a problem, but the raw materials require higher-grade stainless steel. This stainless steel requires an AOD furnace for smelting. The country does not have such furnaces. As a well-known American scientist, Ding Huaizhong
, my major is also physics, and physics and materials science are both related.
"AOD furnace? It's for smelting high-quality stainless steel, right? Do you need this kind of thing?"
Ding Huaizhong was slightly startled.
"Well, our Huaxia University has set up a materials laboratory, which requires high-quality stainless steel. However, there is no such furnace in China. If it is sold in the United States, I can buy one!"
