Great Power Technology

On the plane, Ye Zhou entered the simulator. He had completed 99% of the early study of topological quantum computing. The remaining information was some less critical and detailed information. He could finally free up his hands to continue. of simulation.

According to the current simulation progress in the three major directions, he can now choose to simulate the same three plots.

The first is the general direction of the mystery of life.

The first plot simulation reward has been specified to be the genome sequencing results, and it is the genome sequencing results for the entire human race. Ye Zhou has collected relevant information before and understands the significance of this reward.

The so-called genome sequencing refers to the sequencing of the entire human genome. The so-called complete refers to the complete detection and arrangement of the complete genome sequence in human cells from the first DNA to the last DNA. Therefore, this technology can identify almost any type of mutation on the genome.

As long as we have specific information about genome mutations, it means that humans will be able to further understand the mysteries of their own birth, aging, illness, and death, allowing humans to fundamentally understand the causes of diseases, treat diseases correctly, and treat diseases as early as possible. prevent disease.

The most typical application cases of this achievement are gene diagnosis and gene therapy. If it is further developed, without considering ethical factors, it may even trigger major changes in gene editing technology.

As for things like genetic weapons, they are just by-products.

In fact, some time ago, the T2T international scientific research team had completed the first whole-genome sequencing, but the genetic samples it measured actually only came from an unspecified Western race. Although it also has a significant impact on international medicine, But if it is used in China, it will have relative limitations.

Therefore, if the genetic sequencing data of the entire human race can be obtained in the simulation, it will actually be of great help to the development of clinical medical care in China.

As early as 2016, the Ministry of Science and Technology and the National Health and Family Planning Commission had established the China Precision Medicine Strategy Expert Committee, and then proposed the China Precision Medicine Plan, and it was elevated to the national strategic dimension. If it can be supplemented in a short time this time The results of whole-gene sequencing will greatly accelerate this plan.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou silently raised the priority of the plot simulation of gene sequencing to a higher level.

In the direction of "Little Sun", after completing the simulation of the direction of sulfur-lithium batteries, the next simulation plot that Ye Zhou saw did not stay in the field of new energy, but directly turned to the field of laser technology.

High energy pulse laser technology.

Ye Zhou scratched his head and frowned slightly.

As we all know, lasers can not only be used for military weapons, but also have many applications in the civilian field. The most typical and widely used ones are industrial drilling, etching, and welding. High-power lasers are also of great significance to nuclear fusion technology.

To achieve controllable nuclear fusion, humans currently face two main problems.

The first is how to heat the raw materials for nuclear fusion to a high enough temperature, and the second is what we need to use to contain the raw materials after they reach a predetermined temperature.

Just like using a coal stove to boil water, you must first use a high enough temperature to ignite the briquettes, and then ensure that the coal stove is not burned through the briquettes.

Neither of these difficulties is easy to solve, but at least there is a direction.

For example, in the ignition part, all countries currently use basically the same method, which is to use laser to heat fusion materials.

But the problem is that with the current level of technology, the power of a single laser is too low to make the fuel reach a temperature that can be burned. Therefore, a common approach is to use multiple lasers to work at the same time to focus the energy in different directions to heat the fuel. The object is heated evenly in all directions and explores toward the center of the sphere, thereby forming fusion.

In this field, China's research progress is currently the fastest. Its "National Ignition Facility" is experimenting with focusing 192 lasers on the same point, while my country's "Shenguang 3" project is currently experimenting with 32 lasers. laser focus, the next target is 48 - this is a solution, but not the best solution.

Because the greater the number of lasers, the greater the difficulty of control. If it is only in the laboratory stage, it is fine. If it enters the application field later, the high technical threshold will prevent the application from being effectively promoted.

Therefore, it has become inevitable to solve the problem of laser power, and simulating the high-energy pulse laser technology mentioned in the plot introduction is a feasible direction.

This simulation plot is probably a front-end technology for nuclear fusion technology, just like in the Dragon Heart simulation, high heat-resistant material technology was also a front-end technology for large aircraft engines.

If it can be completed, it will not only be of great significance to the laser anti-missile system that is still being laid out, but also lay the foundation for the subsequent development of controllable nuclear fusion technology.

For Ye Zhou, this technology has a higher priority than the genetic sequencing results.

He shook his head and continued to click on the second simulation plot of the Kingdom of Omnics. After briefly watching it, he exited the introduction.

He had already learned about the technology provided by the next plot of the Omnic Kingdom in detail before, and had actually anticipated this technology.

Reconstructive perception technology.

That is to say, the sound, light, and tactile signals received by the sensor in the outside world are transmitted to the brain through interpretation by the central processor, thereby constructing the brain's visual, auditory, and tactile neural responses.

This technology can be extremely useful for people with disabilities, but its potential doesn't stop there.

Being able to parse out sensory signals can further parse out more complex logical and emotional signals. As long as we continue along this path, one day, humans will no longer need to rely on the five senses to transmit information, but can use electrical signal input. .

Therefore, like laser technology, this is also a technology that lays the foundation for more ambitious technical goals.

After reading all the introductions to the simulation plot, Ye Zhou exited the simulator directly.

He found paper and pen and began to list the advantages and disadvantages of the three technical directions in front of him, the difficulty of implementation, the occupation of funds and resources, and the talent situation, etc., intending to prioritize the three goals.

This is what a strategic scholar should do.

For Ye Zhou himself, it is not too difficult to obtain technology in the simulator. Since he obtained the simulator, he has completed plot simulations in several different fields. Because of the time ratio of 100:1, the actual time ratio is 100:1. The total time spent in his simulator did not exceed one month in real time.

However, after these technologies are extracted into reality, how to control the rhythm of technology application is the key to the problem.

The technology Ye Zhou acquired was in the form of documents and theories. It did not mean that after completing the simulation of the engine, after extracting the technology, an engine appeared in front of him out of thin air. He needed to provide the technology to the relevant departments and organize manpower. Interpret before proceeding to manufacturing, testing, and large-scale production applications.

Although this process consumes very few resources compared to starting research and development from scratch, if too many projects are launched at the same time, the consumption of national resources will still be huge.

Not all of this huge resource consumption can be benefited in a short period of time, which leads to extremely serious consequences.

That is, the technological innovation trap.

If there is an excessive pursuit of technological innovation and the innovation results cannot adapt to the current productivity situation, new technologies will not only fail to improve productivity, but will lead to a regression in productivity due to a large consumption of resources.

This will actually cause a major blow to the economic development of the entire country.

The decline of the woolly bear is actually closely related to this factor.

Ye Zhou wrote quickly on the paper. After the plane landed, he had finished writing thirteen pages.

He checked what he had written from beginning to end, and then handed it directly to the assistant on the side.

"Help me type out the content above and send it to the Chief Technical Office."

"In addition, notify the General Technical Office that I will convene a discussion on the content of the document within three days. Please Chen Hao organize all personnel to prepare in advance."

"clear!"

Hearing the assistant's answer, Ye Zhou nodded slightly, then stood up and walked down the gangway.

Mao Xiong has already walked the same road once. This time, we must not go there a second time.

I have to go to work tomorrow, so I will publish two chapters of 5,000 words.

The remaining 5,000 words are still posted before 12 o'clock, and there are still thousands of updates every day.
