Chapter 1, Qin Yi

On March 11, 2020, the sky was clear and clear in the imperial capital, and the spring in March still carried a hint of winter coldness. However, the earth returned to spring, everything revived, and the campus of Huaxia University was thriving.

Students are either sweating on the playground, singing about their youthful years under the shade of green grass, or immersed in the ocean of knowledge in the library.

College is the best time in life. There is neither the burden of life after graduation nor the burden of high school studies before college.

In this green campus, there are only poems and dreams.

Qin Yi carried his schoolbag and walked in a hurry towards the library. Although it was only 7 o'clock, if he didn't go to the library early, he would definitely not be able to get an ideal good seat.

As the top university in China, Huaxia University is most nervous about nothing else but the location of the library. Even if Qin Yi arrives at the library at around 7 o'clock every morning, hundreds of people are already queuing up at the door of the library.

Enter.

Here, there are poor students like Qin Yi who come from rural areas, and there are also wealthy students with prominent backgrounds, but regardless of their origins, almost all those who can enter Huaxia University are top academics.

If you throw a random piece here at Hua Xia University and turn around, it is very likely that you can hit several top picks. Although this is a bit exaggerated, it is enough to show how many top students gather here.

There are many things in common between top academics and top academics, and diligence is the most prominent one.

After staying here for a long time, Qin Yi knows very well that many people are not only better born than you, but also smarter than you, and most importantly, they are more diligent than you.

Even before the library opened, there were already hundreds of people waiting in neat queues in a very orderly manner. There was no trace of chaos in the scene, and there was no sound.

There is no one eating. Even if there are familiar people together, they will talk to each other very quietly for fear of disturbing other people, or they will read silently, or listen quietly with headphones.

Song.

Qin Yi looked at the long queue and regretted not getting up earlier today. It seemed that it would not be easy to grab an ideal position today.

"I will be a senior in the second half of the year. I feel so sad to leave this nostalgic place so soon."

Qin Yi watched everything on campus quietly. In the second half of his junior year, Qin Yi suddenly felt that time passed so fast. In the blink of an eye, he was already a senior. He still clearly remembered what he had just done.

Everything that happened when I entered school is vivid in my mind, as if it happened yesterday.

Time flies, and three years are about to pass. The remaining senior years can actually be considered graduation for most college students. Especially in Huaxia University, many people have completed all their studies early.

When I was four, I basically started studying abroad, taking postgraduate entrance examinations, or going for work internships.

Qin Yi has already thought about his future development direction. He plans to continue studying for graduate school and take the Ph.D. examination. As for studying abroad, it is still unrealistic for Qin Yi. The financial situation of his family cannot support him to study abroad at all. As for studying abroad at public expense

, it’s very, very difficult to apply now.

After decades of reform and opening up, China has achieved leaps and bounds in all aspects. The country has become more prosperous and powerful, and is quite confident in many aspects. It no longer needs to be like it was when it was lagging behind and being beaten more than 100 years ago.

All need to learn from the West.

What's more, students who study abroad at public expense always feel that they have stolen the chicken but lost the rice. It is easy to send the talents they have worked hard to cultivate abroad, but once the talents go abroad, many of them will never come back.

Qin Yi's major is power engineering and engineering thermophysics. This major requires very high depth of knowledge and is a very professional subject. Generally, those who major in this major will go to graduate school and study for Ph.D.

"I can earn money while studying. My parents are getting older, so I can no longer put too much pressure on them."

Qin Yi sighed softly, thinking back to his several years of college life. Although he lived a very fulfilling life, he was not in class every day, recharging in the reading room or working as a tutor to earn living expenses. He had no time and energy to enjoy the passion of youthful campus.

Love, this may be something that Qin Yi still regrets very much.

In fact, when it comes to this matter, Qin Yi feels that he has a little inferiority complex. In this colorful campus, Qin Yi, who has not received much training since he was a child, can neither sing nor play guitar, piano, or anything else.

Because of his talents, and more importantly, because his family is poor, he will inevitably have low self-esteem. Even if he meets a girl who is attracted to him, he will never have the courage to express his feelings to others.

In a blink of an eye, he is already a junior and has become the senior in the mouth of his junior brothers and sisters. He is about to rush for the future. Thinking of this, Qin Yi can't help but shake his head again. If you regret it, regret it. Maybe you will be more regretful in the future if you leave some regrets.

I miss everything about this university.

As time went by, the queue at the entrance of the library became longer and longer, and soon it was time to open the library. The long queue entered in a very orderly manner, and the sound was still very low and very quiet.

Wang Ying was very lucky. He found a seat by the window. He took out his book and began to study quietly. Qin Yi enjoyed this feeling of being immersed in knowledge, because when you are immersed in something,

When you are in the middle, you will find that time passes very quickly.

In a blink of an eye, the day passed. At ten o'clock in the evening, the night was hazy and a bit of cold wind made people couldn't help but tighten their clothes.

Qin Yi carried his schoolbag and walked slowly back to his dormitory. He liked this fulfilling feeling, walking leisurely on campus after a busy day.

Look at the flowers, plants and trees on campus, or find a deserted corner and stare at the starry sky at night, or find a seat in the summer and listen to your favorite songs quietly.

Qin Yi walked and came to a deserted lawn. He put down his schoolbag very casually and lay on the lawn, resting his hands on his pillow and looking at the bright starry sky.

The bright moon is in the sky and the stars are twinkling. China has played some role in environmental management over the years. In the past, when the smog was at its worst, it was hard to see the moon at night, let alone the stars.

"I don't know when we humans will be able to truly leave the earth, enter the interstellar universe, and explore this vast universe."

"I wonder if there are really aliens on the other side of this starlight?"

Qin Yi looked at the stars in the sky and suddenly thought about whether there are aliens. With the development of human science and technology, the scope of exploration is getting wider and wider. With the help of the most advanced Hubble Space Telescope, humans can even

Observed celestial objects more than 10 billion light years away.

But so far, humans have not discovered any extraterrestrial civilization. Aliens are more common in science fiction novels and movies, so much so that some people even say that humans are the only intelligent life in the entire universe.

Although this concept seems to scientists to be like looking at the sky from a well, not to mention how vast the universe is, there are about 100-400 billion planetary systems like the solar system in the Milky Way alone, and the solar system is only among the vast Milky Way.

It is just a very insignificant dot, and the Milky Way is just a drop in the ocean of the entire vast universe.

"Transportation is what really restricts the development of civilization, and what determines transportation is power. Perhaps only if we truly master more advanced power technology can we truly soar among the stars in the universe and explore the world beyond the stars. Maybe

At that time, the age of interstellar navigation will follow.”

Qin Yi, who studies power engineering, naturally feels that power is the foundation for the progress and development of human civilization, just like other people studying this major.

From the beginning of the first industrial revolution, from steam power at the beginning, to the internal combustion engine of the second industry, and then to the electric motor, the power technology mastered by mankind has become more and more powerful, and the development of human civilization has also become faster and faster.

.

In the past, the earth seemed very big, but now the entire earth is slowly developing towards a global village. With the popularization of high-speed rail and airplanes, human beings are traveling faster and faster, and the areas visited are getting larger and larger. Transportation determines

The scope of activities, while power technology determines the means of transportation. In the final analysis, it is still power technology.

Of course, different people have their own opinions on the root of human progress. Sociologists will feel that the root of human progress lies in the liberation of the mind and the liberated self of human beings, which is why the rapid development of science and technology has occurred.

Educationalists will believe that human progress is due to the promotion of education and the popularization of knowledge. Everyone has more knowledge than ever before, so everything is happening today.

Chemists would think that human progress is due to the fact that humans mastered gunpowder and used powerful artillery to blast everything of the religious knights in the Middle Ages, which led to the liberation of ideas, the innovation of political systems, and so on.

For Qin Yi, he believes that the root of human progress and development is power technology. Power technology determines what kind of transportation humans use, and transportation determines the scope of human activities.

"It is not feasible to truly enter the space age relying on current rocket technology. The cost is too high. Until we master more advanced power technology, we humans can only remain limited to the blue planet Earth."

Thinking of this, Wang Ying couldn't help but shake his head. Although today's rockets, aerospace engines, etc. are becoming more and more powerful, in essence, the root of this technology is still the technology of the internal combustion engine, which relies on burning fuel to generate power.

There has been no substantial breakthrough in the power technology mastered by mankind for more than 100 years.
