After leaving HKUST, Su Zhe, Fan Xiaoming, and Bao Qizheng took a car to Badu South High-speed Railway Station.
In the waiting room, the three of them were sitting together chatting.
From the development of the school, we talked about the development of the country, from the development of the country to the development of the world, and finally we talked about the development of the solar system.
Soon, the high-speed train the three of them took arrived at the station.
Bao Qi was on the high-speed train to Shanghai, and Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming were on the high-speed train back to Lingzhou.
Along the way, the two chatted quietly about the arrangements for the three-door plan and the light pillar project. At the end of the conversation, the two talked about the verification experiment of the simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine.
At 11:30 p.m., Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming returned to the school apartment.
Just as the two were about to open their respective apartment doors, their cell phones rang at the same time.
When they took it out and looked at it, they both laughed.
They both received a text message with the same content.
Fan Xiaoming said with a smile: "It seems that these experts are convinced, and the application submitted by Professor Ning was approved."
HKUST hosts a symposium on cancer treatment.
To put it nicely, it’s about communication, but in reality it’s about beating the experts so that the application can be approved quickly.
"It's good if it passes. This way, those tumor patients can be treated earlier." Su Zhe nodded.
"Who says it's not the case!" Fan Xiaoming smiled, "I don't know how many people are going to be harmed by this grinding."
"The problem of tumors has been solved, but there are still other diseases. We must continue our efforts to solve all human disease problems." Su Zhe said with a smile.
"We still have a long way to go to solve all disease problems." Fan Xiaoming said, "No matter how long the road is, as long as we persist, the road will come to an end sooner or later."
"The road is long, but as long as we understand all the mechanisms of the human body, the road will be 95% complete. No matter how hard we work, the road will come to an end." Su Zhe said bluntly.
"By then, it should be no problem for us humans to achieve immortality." Fan Xiaoming sighed.
"It should be okay!" Su Zhe looked at the time and said, "It's getting late. Go to bed early. We'll be busy for a while starting tomorrow."
"Well! Go to bed early!"
…
The next day, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming arrived at Experiment Station No. 5 early.
After seeing the scientific researchers at the No. 5 Experimental Station arriving, Fan Xiaoming announced that he had made a breakthrough in the development of a simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine.
Later, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming led a group of scientific researchers to the large classroom on the third floor of the collision building.
Su Zhe stood on the stage and explained to the scientific researchers the principles of the optimized simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine.
Fan Xiaoming explains the steps and preparations for verification experiments.
Just like that, the day passed.
In the evening, neither Su Zhe nor Fan Xiaoming worked overtime, but played games in the office.
When he came to the collision building in the morning, Fan Xiaoming told his assistant Liu Fen to arrange a game cabin for him and Su Zhe. By noon, the game cabins for the two of them were arranged.
In fact, Su Zhe and Fan Xiaoming knew something about the game cabin, but they were just too busy to pay attention to it.
Like the game cabins Bao Qizheng mentioned, there are many in the collision building, and they have seen them in their assistant's office.
In the director's office, Su Zhe lay down in the game cabin and got into the game cabin. With the help and reminders of his assistants Zong Lanyue and Bi Yuankui, he put on his equipment.
A pair of gloves and a pair of special glasses.
Gloves are the main control equipment. Special glasses and the curved screen in the game cabin can be combined to experience a real 3D feeling.
After Su Zhe put on the special glasses, he found that the originally white curved screen turned into a three-dimensional picture.
The picture shows the rotating earth.
"Boss! The seats in the game cabin can be adjusted intelligently. You can adjust them anywhere from sitting to lying down." Zong Lanyue reminded.
"How to control it? Let me try!" Su Zhe asked with a smile.
"It can be controlled by voice or interface." Bi Yuankui replied.
Su Zhe tried both voice and interface, and adjusted the seat to a semi-reclining position, which was the angle of a recliner.
He saw that there was a massage function on the interface, and it was really good after he tried it.
The slight vibration makes people feel very comfortable.
But there was no sound.
"Not bad! Not bad! This game cabin can be used as a massage chair." Su Zhe said with satisfaction.
"Boss! This game cabin is valuable. It would be a waste to use it as a massage chair." Zong Lanyue said with a smile.
"How expensive can it be? I think you all have it in your office." Su Zhe said while looking at the introduction of the game cabin's functions.
"Expensive! It's very expensive. The boss's game cabin is sold for 10 million," Zong Lanyue said.
"What! How much? Ten million?" Su Zhe said in surprise.
"Yes! Ten million!" Bi Yuankui said affirmatively.
Su Zhe asked with a smile: "Who set the price? It's ten million. This... well, how much does this game cabin cost?"
"Those people from the School of Computer Science," Bi Yuankui replied, "The cost of the game cabin used by the boss is 500,000."
"The cost of half a million, selling for 10 million, twenty times, is not too bad." Su Zhe said, "At this price, how many people in the world can afford it? There is no game cabin, how can you play games at such a high price? Liu Fen can agree to the price!"
"Boss! There are many rich people in the world. Guess how much this game cabin sold for 10 million yuan has sold?" Zong Lanyue asked with a smile.
"One thousand!" Su Zhe replied.
"Ten thousand, a total of ten thousand were sold, of which three thousand were bought by wealthy people in the Middle East. In addition, one hundred and thirty customized game cabins were sold. The minimum price for a customized game cabin is thirty million, and the highest It’s one billion." Bi Yuankui said impatiently.
"Sold so many, the highest one is one billion. This..." Su Zhe sighed, "The people in the Computer Science School are making crazy money. If you just calculate, they can get one hundred billion, but the number of people is still too small. I can’t afford those two online games.”
Bi Yuankui said quickly: "The guys from the School of Computer Science have also developed a game cabin that sells for one million. The experience is not much different from that of the game cabin that costs ten million. It has all the functions it should have, but the manufacturing materials are a little less." The difference would cost 100,000.”
"Really! How much did you sell for?" Su Zhe asked.
"Two hundred thousand!" Bi Yuankui replied.
"For large-scale online games, this number is still too small, but this time the people from the School of Computer Science have really made money. No wonder Bao Qizheng was so confident when he spoke." Su Zhe said.
"Not only the game cabin, but also the game helmet. The price of this kind of game helmet is 100,000 yuan. The experience is not as good as the game cabin. The cost is 20,000 yuan, and 500,000 units have been sold so far." Bi Yuankui added.
"It's quite thoughtful. More than 700,000 people are barely enough." Su Zhe said.
"Boss! That's not what you think. Without a game cabin or a helmet, you can still play the two online games "Proxima Centauri" and "Ocean of Europa" through the computer, but the experience is completely different." Zong Lan Yue explained.
"That's it! I understand!" Su Zhe smiled, "The two games "Proxima Centauri" and "Ocean of Europa" have been in public beta for some time. Is it fun?"
"It's fun! It's fun!" Zong Lanyue smiled, "I like to play the game "Ocean of Europa" the most. I like to explore the ocean under the ice. There are countless fish, animals, and plants in the ocean. I am too Like it."
The game "Ocean of Europa" is created using a real blueprint of Europa.
The fish, animals, plants, and even the terrain environment in the game are all real.
The data are basically analyzed from the abnormal data collected by the Extremely Different Microwave Radiation Spectrometer.
The same goes for the game "Proxima Centauri". Most of its data is real and is no different from the real Proxima Centauri.
Bi Yuankui nodded and said: "I like to play "Proxima Centauri". In Proxima Centauri, we can engage in development, construction, grab territory, and control various machines. The most important thing is the game "Proxima Centauri" Very close to reality.”
"That's right! I was moved by what you said." Su Zhe said.
"Boss! You will definitely like these two games." Zong Lanyue smiled, "By the way, the game cabin can be connected to the Internet, and both computer and mobile software can be used, and there is information For input and control, virtual keyboards and voice input can be used to input information. The control mainly relies on gloves worn on the hands. The control functions of the gloves can be determined by the official, or they can be personalized according to your own habits."
"Okay! Got it!" What Su Zhe was looking at now was the function of the gloves.
Bi Yuankui said with a smile: "Boss! The game cabin can also remotely control robots and some other equipment, such as the humanoid bionic robot developed by the guys from the School of Computer Science, large equipment and so on."
Zong Lanyue added: "The remote control large-scale equipment system developed by the people at the School of Computer Science is quite mature. They have their experimental sites in the Tamu Gobi and northwest mines. The one that is even worse is humanoid bionics. It’s a robot, and the control system is pretty perfect, but the humanoid bionic robot is not very good and can fall down easily.”
"I know this. The game cabin was originally designed for remote control of robots." Su Zhe said.
"Yes! If Liu Fen hadn't thought of using the game cabin for online games, people from the School of Computer Science and other colleges would never have thought of it." Zong Lanyue said, "Not only did it help them earn money, but it also What a great idea to use games to train people to control robots remotely.”
Su Zhe said with some confusion: "Didn't Jiutian Culture get its fair share of profits from such a cooperation? Liu Fen would not do such a loss-making business."
"How can you not want profits!" Zong Lanyue said, "Liu Fen directly asked for one-third of their profits, which is nearly 100 billion. If they don't agree, let them sell it themselves."
"A third of the profits, Bao Qizheng and others agreed?" Su Zhe asked with a smile.
"Agreed!" Zong Lanyue said with a smile, "Bao Qizheng and the others are not stupid. So far, they have earned nearly 200 billion. To put it bluntly, they have earned all this money in vain."
"No wonder the School of Computer Science has been making frequent moves recently. It turns out it's a windfall." Su Zhe said.
"Who says otherwise?" Bi Yuankui said bluntly, "I have heard that the School of Computer Science is preparing to build supercomputing systems in the Tamu Gobi, the moon, and other places in the solar system. It also plans to build on the basis of the supercomputing system. We want to build a virtual universe on the Internet and bring the real universe into the virtual universe. Having said that, the people in the School of Computer Science are quite ambitious."
"It's not that small!" Su Zhe said, "I went to the University of Science and Technology with me this time, and we talked about the problem of humanoid bionic robots. Bao Qizheng proposed to cooperate with our research center, and I agreed to help them solve the problem of humanoid bionic robots. Issues with instability and materials.”
"These people from the School of Computer Science are very bad. They came to us for cooperation only when they encountered hard problems and couldn't solve them. They always avoided us before." Zong Lanyue said.
"Only our research center can solve the instability and material problems of humanoid bionic robots, and others cannot." Bi Yuankui said confidently.
Su Zhe smiled and said: "We also talked about the issue of brain-computer integration on the way. According to Bao Qizheng, their ideal game cabin is that after a person lies in it, the person can directly control the robot remotely with his consciousness, and his consciousness can directly enter the virtual world. universe."
"The guys from the School of Computer Science really dare to think about integrating brain and computer and directly entering the virtual universe with their consciousness." Zong Lanyue smiled, "They should stop thinking about it. If we really want to realize it, we have to rely on our research center."
"Whether it is brain-machine integration or human consciousness, it requires a sufficient understanding of the human brain, otherwise it will be impossible to achieve." Bi Yuankui said.
"That's true!" Su Zhe nodded, "We can achieve it step by step."
"Yes!" Zong Lanyue nodded and asked, "Boss! I heard that a simplified version of the heavy photon aerospace engine has made a major breakthrough and will be built soon. Is this true?"
"Uh! You've all heard about it." Su Zhe said, "It's a big breakthrough, but we won't know until the samples are made and verified whether it works or not."
"Okay! It will definitely work!" Zong Lanyue said with a smile, "I want to sign up for astronaut training early. When the permanent base on the moon is ready, I must go up and take a look."
Bi Yuankui smiled and said: "I will go to the Tamu Desert in two days to participate in astronaut training. If we work together, if we don't do well, I, you, and Ma Ping will all become the first group to land on the moon. "
"Don't! I'm not an academic like you and Ma Ping. I'm a liberal arts student so I won't cause trouble for you. I still have this bit of self-awareness." Zong Lanyue said bluntly.
"Indeed! The first batch of moon landing members all have certain tasks." Su Zhe said, "But it will be different after the permanent base on the moon is built. I will also go up there to take a look at that time."
"Okay! Okay! I want to go with the boss." Zong Lanyue said excitedly.
"Okay!" Su Zhe said with a smile, "By the way! The game cabin has so many functions. It can access the Internet, play games, and remotely control robots. Is the relevant data safe?"
Bi Yuankui affirmed: "Both the game cabin and the game helmet are equipped with quantum communication modules, which are point-to-point and can definitely ensure data security."
"That's good!" Su Zhe said seriously, "If the data cannot be guaranteed to be safe, then the problem will be big."
"Yes!"
Bi Yuankui and Zong Lanyue smiled and nodded.
At this time, Su Zhe followed the prompts and registered a unique account for Jiutian Culture.
As soon as I logged in, I received a message from Fan Xiaoming.
Su Zhe looked at it and said to Bi Yuankui and Zong Lanyue: "You log in to the game twice in the office. Professor Fan and I will team up with the five of you to experience the game and remotely control the robot."
"good!"
"immediately!"
Zong Lanyue and Bi Yuankui left the director's office.
