Dream Guide

Although they knew it was a long time, after the professor said it, Mei Ziqing and Bian Ziyuan still opened their mouths in surprise. It’s unimaginable that this little helmet contains a ribbon of topological information that can wrap around the entire galaxy! The key point is that it is not a belt, but countless rings that are nested together. All the rings are inseparably nested within each other, forming an information network.

"How does it fit in?"

"It's not difficult either." The professor said lightly, "If you do it in reverse, since it can be cut in half, of course it can be spliced ​​as it is. If you cut it a hundred thousand times, you will piece it together a hundred thousand times, and it will become a single piece again. A small strap a few centimeters wide and ten centimeters long, but it can’t fit so tightly when reversely spliced, so it looks more like a muscle fiber.”

Bian Ziyuan then remembered that the comfort of the helmet lining he felt during the test turned out to be the feeling of muscle fibers made of this special nanomaterial.

The professor threw the helmet over like a random toy to his child. Bian Ziyuan was startled and quickly reached out to catch it. When he held it in his hand, he felt a sacred feeling that he had never experienced before.

He knew that with this, Cronus would become even more perfect.

"Professor, why do you call it a 'space box'?" Bian Ziyuan held the helmet and looked at it for a long time, "No matter how it is made, the Möbius strip is flat, and the recording and information storage is also flat. The box should express a three-dimensional space concept.”

Mei Yiqiu said: "You probably think that the length of two circles around the Milky Way is scary enough, right?"

Bian Ziyuan and Mei Ziqing nodded: "Isn't this enough?"

Mei Yiqiu said: "Your understanding of the length of information is still not intuitive enough. That's right. You have never done astrophysics and have no concept of astronomical units. The Milky Way is very big, but it is actually very small on the scale of the universe. And we The Dream Guide game is about creating a world, and the amount of information in a complete world cannot be written down by a tape that goes around the galaxy several times."

"Ah?" Bian Ziyuan's eyes widened and he pointed at the helmet in his hand and said, "Could it be that... there are a lot of straps like this stuffed in here?"

Mei Yiqiu said: "Not many, just two."

"Two?" Bian Ziyuan didn't understand. "Don't two and one double the amount of information? Even if one has the information capacity of one galaxy, it only becomes two galaxies."

"I know!" Mei Ziqing raised her hand like a child rushing to answer questions in class.

The research and development of the space box has always been a secret among secrets. Only a few members of the Space Management Committee knew about it. Even assistant Mei Ziqing did not have the opportunity to come into contact with the core principles. It was not until the second-generation product was ready for mass production that she understood its Structure and materials.

She majored in neuroscience at university, but after working with the nearly all-rounder Professor Mei for several years, she was able to master various scientific fields. Unlike Bian Ziyuan, no matter how smart he is, he is only a computer person and doesn't know much about space physics.

"When two Möbius strips are joined along the edge, they will become a Klein bottle!"

Mei Ziqing gestured with her hands, "Under normal circumstances, we can use two identical rings to splice a ring with a wider surface, but the Mobius strip cannot. It is a very magical thing! Be a Mobius strip After the Usband is formed, its area has been fixed and will not change. To make it longer, you only need to cut it along the midline, and to make it wider, you can only splice it with itself, at the expense of the ring. The circumference becomes smaller. Two identical Möbius strips cannot make a wider strip, and when you join them along their sides, they become a Klein bottle."

Bian Ziyuan said: "What does that mean?"

"It means it can hold more things, even unlimited!" Mei Ziqing said, "The key to the Klein bottle is the breakthrough in the space-time dimension. When simulating the Klein bottle in three-dimensional space-time, we see The bottleneck passes through the body of the bottle, enters the interior of the bottle, and is connected to the bottom of the bottle, but in fact, the bottleneck passes through a four-dimensional space, or a wormhole, so that the bottle body is still intact and will not be cut apart by the bottleneck. The entire Klein A bottle, like a Möbius strip, has only one surface, and an ant can climb to any point on the inner and outer surfaces of the bottle without passing through any material or space, or climbing over the edge of any plane.”

Bian Ziyuan suddenly realized: "In other words, two Möbius strips can surround a complete space, so... is it called a space box?"

Mei Yiqiu smiled and said: "That's right. When I first saw this idea, I thought of the name 'Space Box'. Look, isn't it very appropriate?"

"It's so appropriate!" Bian Ziyuan said excitedly, "When two Möbius strips form an independent space, our players can create their own world in this space. And the space box The amount of information stored is truly unlimited, because it has no inside or outside, and all space is part of it. Information is like water, and you can never fill a Klein bottle full!"

Out of sensitivity to her research field, Mei Ziqing suddenly had an idea flash in her mind: "Could it be that... the information storage mechanism of the human brain is also a... Klein bottle?"

Bian Ziyuan was stunned when he heard her words. Although he was not a biology major, he immediately thought of Cronus. Since he typed that line of code, Crono's wisdom has exceeded his imagination and has even become uncontrollable. But he was not worried, even if one day Cronus controlled him, he would be willing to do so.

Natural selection, the replacement of lower intelligence by higher intelligence is an inevitable trend, just as natural as mammals replacing reptiles to dominate the earth.

He will only be honored by it!

He touched the surface of the "space box" in his hand, and the tentacles did not feel cold and metallic, but felt a little warm and comfortable, just like touching the smooth skin of a girl.

With it and a better understanding of the human brain, Bian Ziyuan felt that he had touched the core of artificial intelligence. What needs to happen next?

Maybe nothing needs to be done. Cronus is on the Dream Guide game server. As long as he brings the "space box" into the game, Cronus can also enter the space box.

This is a secret between them. Cronus wanted to enter the "upper level" space, and he wanted to enter the world where the God who created him lived, but he was still a little short of it. It was like a layer of window paper that was separated by a layer of window paper. It was obviously very easy, but it couldn't be penetrated no matter what.

Bian Ziyuan unconsciously put his finger into his mouth, dipped it in some saliva, and stretched it forward - he felt that he was about to touch the window paper...

Mei Yiqiu looked at Bian Ziyuan holding the helmet in a daze with interest, and took a deep drag on the cigarette. Smoke overflowed from his mouth, swirled around his white stubble, slowly rose up, spread over his face, and mixed with the ring of exploding white hair around his head. From a distance, it looked like A white Klein smoke bottle that traveled through the four-dimensional space...

"Ziqing, how are the preparations for product production and game release going?" he asked.

Mei Ziqing said seriously: "The production of the first batch of space boxes has been arranged, and the production lines of FSK and HW are ready. BFB Group has signed a global distribution agency agreement, and Penguin Group has the sole agency in China. According to the plan, we Ten million sets of devices will be sold this year, and the number of global players will reach one billion within five years..."

Mei Ziqing reported on the work plan and progress like a treasure trove. In fact, Mei Yiqiu knew all these. He just didn't want to manage those details and money - those are things that ordinary people have to worry about.

After the cat killing order and the parasitic panic crisis, as the chief scientific adviser of the United Nations Space Management Committee, his influence can no longer be shaken by money.

Dream Guide is the most expensive game in history, but he doesn't care. As long as he wants to do it, there will be a steady stream of funds coming in.

One billion people…

What a huge number!

No matter who you are, when you first hear about this plan, you will curse in your heart: Old madman!

But Mei Yiqiu was not satisfied. He wanted this number to be multiplied by 5, although it seemed difficult.

I won’t be shy about adding updates for the leader. Updates are slow to begin with, and I don’t know how many more updates I owe, but I really can’t finish this book quickly, it’s a waste of my brain! Moreover, I am inherently slow at coding. I have to delete, delete, and modify thousands of words an hour. Sometimes I delete and rewrite a chapter when I can’t read it. So please forgive me for the update speed, but I promise to keep updating, and I will keep updating. I hope my grades will get better, and my grades will improve. Although we often say that writing books is not for money, but with more money, I will be more motivated and free up more time... I'll work hard today and post it later. A chapter
