Chen Nian never expected that he would get such unexpected gains from visiting Tieba.
Carbon dioxide starch synthesis technology, although this thing sounds useless now, it actually has endless potential.
After all, going to the stars and the sea is the destiny of civilizations looking up at the stars. By then, do you really want to set up a dedicated planting area in the precious spaceship space?
The essence of synthetic starch is to realize the industrial transformation process of inorganic matter into organic matter, breaking the bottleneck of resource constraints and greatly improving the "survival boundary" of mankind.
——
But of course, it's too early to talk about full-scale application of this technology.
Although in this era, domestic power resources are generally in surplus, and there is no need to consider using photovoltaic power to save costs, the problem is that invertase is expensive.
In Chen Nian's impression, the price of this thing was still sky-high even in 2020, and it was not until the first factory was completed in 2023 that it was considered to have dropped a bit.
It can't be built, it can't be built at all.
——
But there is absolutely no problem in laying out and stocking it up in advance as a high-potential project.
It’s such a huge profit!
Only 1.5 source points can actually analyze this kind of thing.
This feeling is like buying a lottery ticket and winning five million for two yuan...
——
No, it should be said that it’s like going to a luxury store to see the world, and then you happen to meet someone dealing with defective products, and you immediately bought them for the lowest price...
Chen Nian happily walked around the room twice, then entered the chemical formula and synthesis method of the catalytic enzyme into the computer, turned around and called Chen Guo.
He briefly explained his "discovery" to Chen Guo, who listened to the whole thing in stunned silence, and then asked in disbelief:
"So, you read other people's absurdities on the Internet - uh, fantasies, and then tried it yourself and came up with this thing?"
"Are you sure it can really convert methanol into starch? Isn't that a bit incredible?"
"Although the ingredients are the same, it's...harmful, what am I talking about here."
"Send the technical documents over here, and I'll find someone for you."
Chen Guo suddenly paused mid-sentence. In fact, what he just said was entirely out of his subconscious reaction, but he soon came back to his senses:
Isn't this nonsense?
Knowing that the kid opposite has a secret, and his superiors are turning a blind eye, why should I talk so much?
Just accept whatever you give me, and it won’t do anyone any good to get to the bottom of it!
But what surprised him was that Chen Nian actually answered his question seriously.
"Professor Chen, you also know that whether it is materials science or biochemistry, the process of doing experiments is no different from drawing a lottery. Most of the time, getting what you want is purely luck."
"Of course I am just luckier."
"Yes, yes, you have always been very lucky."
Chen Guo quickly agreed and secretly said:
Brat can really act.
The two exchanged a few words. Chen Guo took away the document on carbon dioxide starch converting enzyme and planned to hand it over to the Institute of Industrial Biotechnology for experimental exploration. Chen Nian returned to his desk leisurely and began to study the digital array. The next node in the radar technology tree comes.
Now that the problem of the diffusion furnace has been basically solved, the next step is the single crystal furnace.
Once these two things are done, the T/R originals required for digital array radar can basically be mass-produced.
As for the photolithography machines and etching machines needed to further improve performance?
Hmm... If there are excess source points, it's not impossible to do it, but generally speaking, the price/performance ratio is not high.
In fact, the semiconductor technology required for any kind of military electronic product will not be the most cutting-edge. Even at Lao Maozi, many weapons, including the Su-27, still use 60, Electronic equipment from the 1970s.
What were the electronic devices at that time?
Large PCBs, packaged SMD chips, radars made with Cassegrain technology, and even slightly cyberpunk things like large discrete transistors.
But such backward electronic equipment has a limited impact on the combat effectiveness of its air force.
Of course, this is just a relatively extreme example. After entering the phased array era, everyone began to upgrade their radar systems, but even the most advanced radar chips will lag behind civilian chips by several generations until 20 years In the future, most radars in the world will still stay at the 70 to 40nm level.
Therefore, it is actually not necessary to buy a photolithography machine just for digital array radar.
It's better to take advantage of this not-so-sensitive time to buy more...
Thinking of this, Chen Nian shook his head gently.
Then it’s better not to go too far, and first get the technology of the single crystal furnace.
As for the rest, it doesn't matter if you take it one step at a time.
So, he took out the list of technical difficulties related to single crystal furnace equipment output at the previous meeting and began to scan them one by one with the system.
This time, the list of technical difficulties is much smaller than that of the diffusion furnace, but the number of source points required is almost the same.
The main reason is that the manufacturing of single crystal furnaces involves process-oriented simulation software, and the initialization of the simulation software must be supported by a large amount of data.
Obviously, the system helped him skip this step and included the cost of this step into the source point consumption.
Overall, to manufacture an advanced single crystal furnace, the number of source points you need to consume is 2.9.
Seeing this number, Chen Nian couldn't help but secretly complained in his heart:
Sure enough, the F-22 was so cheap at first because it was a bonus for newbies. After the project was completed, the system prices immediately returned to normal levels...
However, I have no way to bargain with the system, I can only find a way to earn the required source points.
There are still 1.32 source points left.
Chen Nian sighed, and after writing down the number "1.32", he began to silently calculate the time it would take for him to earn so many source points.
It seems that the study schedule for the silicon materials course has to be kept up to date.
On the one hand, you can earn more source points, and on the other hand, you should try your best to improve your knowledge level and "sell the price" with the system.
Chen Nian scratched his head silently, then took out the notes he took down in the morning, turned to the "Crystal Plane Index" page, and began to review and consolidate the calculation process learned in the morning...
…
At the same time, Chen Guo had already contacted Xu Min, the head of the Tianjin Institute of Industrial Biotechnology, with extremely high efficiency, and informed him of the discovery of the catalytic enzyme for producing starch from carbon dioxide.
The latter's reaction was equally surprising. You must know that although there is this subject in their institute, it is still at the stage of hypothesis and theoretical demonstration. As for the technology and process, they have not yet been mentioned.
And now, you actually came to me and told me that you have developed the most critical catalytic enzyme?
How can this be……
——
However, judging from the documents he just received, this is indeed not impossible...
"Professor Chen, can you tell me how he discovered this enzyme?"
Xu Min read the document and reasoned over and over again, and asked cautiously.
"...I don't know how to answer your question. I can only say that he was very lucky and happened to discover this enzyme."
"As for how to do it...who can say clearly? In fact, even if you conduct experiments in the laboratory, it is impossible to guarantee that the required materials can be stably produced, right?"
"It's all luck... let's just regard it as luck, understand?"
"Understood."
Xu Min nodded, and then said:
"In this case, let me arrange resources for trial production."
"If we can really prepare this thing, then we will go down in history..."
Chen Guo nodded in agreement, but suddenly, he noticed something was wrong:
"--That's not right. Why do I feel like I've been hearing the word Mingliu Qingshi so much lately?"
