From small town academic to chief scientist

After several people discussed the details, Mr. Qiu said:

"Let it be you, Zhou Yi, who writes the letter to the superior. From theory to current application, the superior values ​​you more, and the weight of your letter is no less than ours."

Mr. Yang also said:

"There is another meaning. What Old Man Qiu and I mean is that you will be our successor. In the future, the mathematics and physics circles of Daxia will have to look to you."

Zhou Yi looked at the old man who was over a hundred years old, and then at the old man who was almost eighty years old.

I know what they mean. They want to pave the way for themselves and improve their prestige.

Zhou Yi was a little moved and said:

"Thank you two teachers. I will write this letter."

Mr. Yang said calmly:

"I'm not your teacher. Let's just leave it at that. Wang Yifang, please be more attentive. The most important weapon of the country cannot make mistakes. This is a major project worth hundreds of billions."

Wang Yifang said:

"Okay, leave it to me, don't worry."

Wang Yifang is a prestigious academician outside.

Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, academician of developing countries, academician of Tsarist Russia, many titles, he is a very important figure wherever he goes.

But here, you can only do some chores.

They couldn't afford to offend Qiu and Yang, and they couldn't afford to offend Zhou Yi.

Donor father.

Moreover, Zhouyi's academic achievements are not low, and his physical level is estimated to be comparable to his own.

The paper "Evidence of the Out-of-Shell Higgs Boson Production and the Total Width of the Higgs Boson\

,"But Wang Yifang was so surprised that it was simply breathtaking.

The perfect combination of mathematics and physics can only be written by Zhou Yi except for the top mathematical physicists.

After a while, everyone dispersed.

As for the location issue, although it has been determined, it still needs to be examined with subsequent data before it can be determined.

The issue of site selection is very important and involves many competing interests.

No one is willing to give up on a project worth hundreds of billions.

Zhou Yi returned to his office and began to think about whether Yuzhou was suitable for building CEPC.

There is definitely no earthquake zone in Yuzhou.

But Shudu, next door to Yuzhou, is an earthquake zone. Every major earthquake has an impact on Yuzhou to a greater or lesser extent.

If CEPC must be established in Yuzhou, prevention of the impact of earthquake aftermath must be considered.

This consideration not only needs to be considered by Zhou Yi, but also Qiu Chengtong, Yang Zhenning and Wang Yifang.

And the higher-ups above will also consider it.

Wang Yifang has nothing to do with Zhou Yi, but Yang Zhenning and Qiu Chengtong can object, and the superiors will also object.

The impact of earthquakes may affect the accuracy of the final experimental results, leading to inaccurate data collected.

Zhou Yi thought for a long time before he remembered that his geodynamics seemed to be at LV1.

Isn't it easier to predict the impact of an earthquake?

Isn’t it nice to brush up on the subject level of geodynamics by the way?

Moreover, the aftermath of earthquakes is accompanied by a large amount of energy, which means whether this energy can be converted into usable energy.

You know, hundreds of kilometers of CEPC requires a huge amount of energy, and the electricity bill alone is more than 20 million yuan a day.

Who can bear this!

Zhou Yi felt that his idea was a genius one.

Geodynamics is a branch of physics. If you study it carefully, it is really feasible.

Generally speaking, seismic waves are huge in energy, highly destructive, and difficult to predict when and where they occur, so they cannot yet be converted into energy that humans can use.

But in theory, any energy can be transformed. With the development of technology, Zhou Yi feels that humans will definitely be able to utilize and control it.

Even if the energy of seismic waves cannot be used, Zhou Yi can strengthen CEPC's anti-seismic device.

Let the aftermath of the earthquake have no impact.

It’s just a matter of spending more money.

In Mudan County, Yuzhou, the highest earthquake aftermath was only around 4.0 in magnitude.

The 6-level anti-shock device is completely sufficient.

Not long after, Zhou Yi returned to his apartment and said to Mudan:

"Peony, look for the geographical data and seismic data of the entire Daxia country, as well as the data on the movement of continental plates."

Not long after, countless papers had been found by Peony.

Zhouyi said:

"Screen out those with low impact factors."

Peony said in a cute voice:

"Good master."

After a while, several papers appeared on Zhou Yi's computer desktop.

Zhou Yi then looked at it seriously.

The first thing Zhou Yi read was the documents from the Shu and Chongqing regions.

While reading, Zhou Yi wrote down his own thoughts or useful methods in the literature.

[Regional earthquake risk can be analyzed with the help of a variety of observation data and analysis methods.

a) Spatial correlation with historical earthquake catalog;

b) Spatial correlation with the regional strain rate field obtained from geodetic measurements;

c) Correlation with the magnitude of the accumulated seismic moment on the fault zone. 】

Zhou Yi murmured:

"Based on these three methods, we use seismic, geological and GPS observation data and fault interseismic deformation evolution models to assess the seismic risk in the Sichuan and Chongqing areas. There should be no problem,

After all, it combines the geological structure of the entire Asia with the special geological structure of Shu and Chongqing.

But you can also see if there are better methods. After all, these methods are still too traditional. "

Zhou Yi has been studying it for several days, but the personnel sent out to examine the site selection issue have not yet returned.

After all, checking the address cannot be completed in one or two days.

There are many aspects to consider. The longer it takes, the more accurate the data will be and the smaller the possibility of problems later.

In the past few days, Zhou Yi's project on the ABC conjecture has also stopped.

Because the more Zhou Yi studied geodynamics, the more surprised he became.

I thought it was only related to the earth, but I didn’t expect it to be related to the dark matter and dark energy of the entire universe.

This is not limited to physical things, but also chemical things.

Zhou Yi thought his method was pretty good before.

After all, the strain rate method used in it achieved very good results in earthquake prediction experiments in Southern California.

The use of Shu and Chongqing will definitely be very effective, because Zhou Yi made reference to the geological conditions of the entire Asia.

Now as the research deepens, Zhou Yi is also confused.

As we all know, the mainstream school of modern geodynamics research has

The two mainstream schools of thought in geotectonic research are the "earth expansion theory" and the "plate tectonics theory."

The theory of earth expansion was first proposed by Lindemann and Hilgenberg in the 1920s and 1930s.

This theory holds that the primitive earth had a closed silicon-aluminum ring, which was broken and separated due to the expansion of the earth's interior, forming separate continents.

Material gushing out of the Earth's mantle filled the space between discrete continents, forming ocean basins that continued to expand.

In 1968, French geologist Le Pichon, Mackenzie, Morgan and others proposed the theory of plate tectonics based on the theory of continental drift and seafloor spreading.

According to this theory, the Earth's surface can be divided into several plates. Mantle convection spreads the seafloor, forming mid-ocean ridges.

Mantle material pours out from mid-ocean ridges, creating new ocean crust and pushing plates to drift across the Earth's surface at a rate of 1 to 10 centimeters per year.

Until it subducts into the mantle at the trench and dies. The nascent oceanic crust is spatially compensated by the subducting plates, and the Earth's volume remains unchanged.

Plate tectonics is currently the most influential mainstream school of thought in global geotectonic research.

In studying lithospheric structure, seafloor spreading, magmatism, orogeny,

Great achievements have been made in various aspects such as seismic activity and mineralization.

Since the birth of plate tectonics, the theory of earth expansion has gradually faded out of sight, but research has always continued.

It and the theory of plate tectonics are like rivals running on two adjacent runways. They have become two strange flowers in global geotectonic research, blooming and competing for beauty.

Zhou Yi carefully discovered that both theories have a big common weakness.

Even they failed to solve the problem of what is the driving force driving the movement of plate plates or the expansion of the earth.

Now Zhou Yi seems to have found the answer to this question.

It is likely that dark energy drives the evolution of Aquamarine.

The main effect of dark energy in the earth on the evolution of the earth is to expand the earth. The expansion of the Earth triggers other geological processes and effects that subsequently explain many of the Earth's dynamics.

Someone on Zhou Yi’s lips said:

"Classic inflation theory does not link the driving force of the earth's expansion to dark energy."

"The results obtained in dark energy research and the theory of earth expansion can be combined to make the earth expansion theory a complete geodynamic theory. It turns out that some people abroad are already studying it.

There are really a lot of talents in Chou Country, and they have all kinds of talents, but there are also some in China, and they seem to be more advanced than them.

The domestic layout is also quite far-reaching, which gives me an advantage, hehe. "

The students in Zhou Yi's office have long been confused.

No, why did my mentor switch from physics to a subject that was sentenced to death?

Can we continue to study geodynamics?

Master, please don’t think too hard.

The six disciples looked at Zhou Yi worriedly.

Zheng Keyu was still bolder and whispered:

"Teacher Zhou, what direction are you studying recently?"

Zhou Yi glanced at several students, tugged on his collar, and said calmly:

"Isn't it necessary to select a site for CEPC recently? The location in Yuzhou is not very ideal, so I am studying geodynamics to predict the time, frequency and intensity of subsequent earthquakes.

To prepare for future scientific research, it is also possible to convince the superiors and Mr. Qiu and Mr. Yang. "

Zheng Keyu is quite familiar with the basic knowledge of academia. After all, he wants to write a biography of Zhou Yi.

I made up my mind on the common sense of various science subjects, so I asked:

"Teacher Zhou, hasn't geodynamics gone cold? Can it come back to life, or are you going to bring it up?"

Zhou Yi said with a serious face:

"What's cool? It's well developed. It's closely related to astrophysics, and it's also closely related to dark energy and dark matter. It's a relatively promising science.

China is at the top in this direction, but I think we can take a step further. "

Zhou Yi was still preparing to develop this subject, but his apprentice actually opposed him.

Can this be tolerated?

Zheng Keyu said again:

"Teacher Zhou, that's not right. As far as I know, the core school of geodynamics is the theory of plate tectonics. The theory of earth expansion seems to be really cool."

Zhou Yi glared at Zheng Keyu and said:

"When I say it has great prospects, I mean it has great prospects. You guys should study the basics these days. I'm going to retreat for a few days.

When your wife came here and didn't find me, she said I was in retreat. "

Several apprentices could only say obediently:

"OK."

After returning to his apartment, Zhou Yi was just about to analyze the data when he heard a cold voice in Zhou Yi's ears.

"Ding, big mission five is released."

[Building CEPC. An advanced scientific research institution and an advanced high-tech country should have its own CEPC.

Requirements: Establish CEPC in Yuzhou and solve its subtasks. Note: Subtasks are released from time to time.

Subtask 1: Analyze and provide a very reliable earthquake prediction model.

Subtask rewards: subject experience involved? ? ? , 500 points, 3 lucky draw opportunities;

Total mission reward:? ? ? . 】

Zhou Yi is not very surprised about this task, because sometimes the system guides Zhou Yi forward,

Sometimes the system will issue tasks in the direction of Zhou Yi's progress.

After accepting the task,

Zhou Yi began to combine the existing data,

On the basis of previous mathematical models, we began to re-establish mathematical models for prediction.

For many days, Zhou Yi was in the apartment. Only Xia Xue had the key to Zhou Yi's apartment, and no one else had it.

Every evening Xia Xue would come to clean Zhou Yi's room and cook meals.

These days, Zhouyi has established many mathematical models alone.

Mathematical modeling is carried out from multiple perspectives to predict earthquake time, earthquake intensity, earthquake intensity that will bring aftermath to Mudan County in Yuzhou, and seismic wave attenuation and dispersion.

The applied knowledge covers mathematics, physics, chemistry, and geodynamics.

Years of data from Daxia Kingdom and years of foreign monitoring data were obtained by Zhou Yi.

It can be said that this essay is the culmination of traditional theories and has reached a very perfect place.

Zhou Yi looked at his completed thesis and said excitedly to Xia Xue:

"Madam, I feel that this paper can benefit many people,"

Xia Xue's fair cheeks turned red and she muttered softly:

"You're not married yet, what are you talking about?"

Zhou Yi walked over with a smile, then hugged Xia Xue, kissed her red lips fiercely,

After a long separation,

Zhou Yicai said with unfinished meaning:

"Hey, my fiancée is also my wife. You can't run away in this life."

Xia Xue's eyes were a little blurred, but she didn't object. Zhou Yi called her madam, which made her happy.

Then, Zhou Yi held Xia Xue with one hand and slid the mouse with the other hand and said:

"This is a new mathematical model across scales,

I used the method of solving the equivalent modulus of the medium to obtain the dispersion speed and attenuation factor of the seismic waves in the model.

It overcomes the defects of previous calculation results in high-frequency bands, such as outliers and the inability to separate attenuation peaks of different scales. "

Xia Xue couldn't understand the dense mathematical formulas and respective images on the screen.

But it didn't stop Xia Xue from listening quietly and nestling in Zhou Yi's arms.

Zhou Yi spoke with great joy, even though Xia Xue could not understand a word.

Xia Xue also knew that no one would be worthy of Zhou Yi happily telling him except himself.

"Based on this dual-scale model, I also comprehensively considered macro-scale Biot flow, coupled three seismic wave attenuation theories, and established a relatively unified three-scale seismic wave attenuation rock physics model.

I feel like I am a genius, haha,

Under the BIOT theoretical framework, the effects of heterogeneous fluid, pore structure, microscopic squeeze jet flow and mesoscopic interlayer flow on fluid pressure and elastic modulus were analyzed, and the wave equation of seismic waves in this three-scale model was obtained. The corresponding seismic wave attenuation and dispersion curves were obtained by solving the problem. "

Xia Xue also agreed and said with admiration:

"Yes, senior is the strongest."

Zhou Yi was even more proud this time. Nothing is more exciting than being recognized by the person you like. Zhou Sui said:

“This paper not only provides a more accurate target functional for seismic inversion, but also provides theoretical support for engineering application practice of directly detecting reservoir fluids based on seismic response.

More importantly, based on various data and drilling enough wells, we can know the coming of an earthquake ten days in advance.

Calculate the impact of the aftermath of the earthquake on Mudan Village.

Even the precise time period. "

That's right, Zhou Yi not only accurately calculated the county, but also the Mudan Village where he lived.

At this time, Xia Xue's red lips turned into a shape of 0,

Knowing ten days in advance and a few minutes in advance can ensure that 99.9% of people will survive an earthquake.

Xia Xue stuttered a little:

"Senior, is it true? If it is true, it will be a great merit."

Zhou Yi kissed Xia Xue's snow-white cheeks again,

The lady smells so good, Zhou Yi thought.

Zhou Yi left with some nostalgia, and then said excitedly:

"Of course it is true, but this method is more traditional. I am also planning to re-establish a mathematical model based on the theory of earth expansion to verify the previous model.

This subject, which is about to be sentenced to death, will have a second spring! "

Then Zhou Yi said happily:

"The maximum limit of traditional methods is ten days. I have a hunch that the earth expansion theory in geodynamics may be able to bring about a qualitative breakthrough.

At that time, it may be possible to know the evolution of the earth several years or more in advance, so as to predict the time of earthquakes in advance.

At that time, people may no longer be afraid of earthquakes, and with good application, they may even be able to use the energy generated by earthquakes to serve us. "

"Senior is awesome~"

Xia Xue deliberately dragged out her voice for a long time, making her originally soft voice look even more delicate.

Zhouyi said:

"I'll take you back. This new direction may not be completed for a while, but this paper is enough for submission to the superiors."

Xia Xue nodded and said:

"Um."

As Zhou Yi walked, he thought, maybe the combination of tradition and new theory can predict a specific year, month, day, and time in the future.

Just after Zhou Yi sent Xia Xue back, a call came to Zhou Yi's mobile phone.

It's Wang Yifang calling.

When Zhou Yi answered the phone, Academician Wang Yifang said cautiously:

"Professor Zhou. I have some bad news to tell you. Our inspectors have sent back all the terrain, landforms and various data that they inspected.

Our team’s final modeling analysis concluded that,

However, Yuzhou is affected by the Shu earthquake zone. The establishment of CEPC may affect the accuracy of our results. If we insist on establishing it,

Considering the anti-shock device, there may be a huge expense. "

Zhou Yi frowned and said:

"How much is it?"

Academician Wang Yifang said on the other end of the phone:

"A lot. Because we are a circular tunnel that is hundreds of kilometers long, the cost is very high, possibly hundreds or even hundreds of billions."

Zhou Yi frowned and said:

"That needs to be built too."

Wang Yifang said:

"Even if there is an anti-seismic device, if the instrument is running, seismic waves will have more or less impact, unless the geodynamics guys make new breakthroughs and can predict the time in advance.

But I think this direction is metaphysics, which has basically come to an end, unless new people lead the development of new theories.

Anti-shock devices can only prevent our equipment from being damaged. "

Zhou Yi said at this time:

"What a coincidence, I really have a new breakthrough."

Wang Yifang looked confused on the phone.

What the hell, since when did you study geodynamics?

It's not scientific.

How could a person be so defiant and evil and have limited energy, how could he take care of so many subjects at the same time?

"Okay, that's it. I'll send you the paper later."

Zhou Yi said.

In fact, the data obtained by the inspection team was not only obtained by Wang Yifang, but also by the higher-ups who had been paying attention to this matter.

Of course, including Ye Qiu Chengtong and Yang Zhenning.

So at this moment Zhou Yi's cell phone rang again,

It was none other than the man in the black jacket with the highest official position among the Zhou Yi mobile phones.

After Zhou Yi answered the phone, the person on the phone said immediately:

"Professor Zhou, the data of the expedition team has been released. We want to hear your opinion. I believe Wang Yifang has also told you."

Zhouyi said:

"Just carry on as usual."

There was a question mark on the phone:? ? ? .

Can this still be business as usual?
