My science and technology museum

"I knew this was a good idea to tell you, so I can just wait for the virtual helmet to be delivered to the base." Yu Hongliang was very satisfied with Xu Lei's answer and did not hide the joy on his face when he spoke.

Xu Lei just smiled and said nothing more.

About ten minutes.

Lei Zhan, who had put on his clothes again, walked out, his whole condition looking the same as before.

It's just a piece of gauze stuck on the back of the neck.

After all, it is a nano neural chip implanted in the body.

Although it is a minimally invasive surgery, no changes can be seen in the appearance, but the wound still needs to grow for a few days.

"How do you feel?" Cheng Fei was the first to step forward and patted Lei Zhan on the shoulder: "Is there any discomfort in your body?"

"Except for being a little itchy, there's nothing unusual for the moment." Lei Zhan carefully felt his physical condition and shook his head at Cheng Fei.

Seeing this scene in front of his eyes, Xu Lei comforted him in time: "The neural chip will not affect your body. Its main function is just to help you flexibly control the prosthetic limbs."

"Just wait two more hours."

"When your prosthetic limb is made, you can experience its benefits."

The words just fell.

Lei Zhan's eyes burst out with gratitude and excitement.

Full of respect for Xu Lei.

"Lei Zhan thanks Mr. Xu for helping me restore my arms. I will definitely repay this kindness in the future."

"This is serious." Xu Lei hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Let's not mention that you are the person who is in command. Our future technology will not stand idly by just by contributing to the country. Besides, this is the purpose of developing this technology."

"There's no need to say more when you see the outside world. Just be patient and wait for the prosthetic limb to come out." Yu Hongliang also answered.

that's all.

None of them left.

After waiting patiently for nearly three hours, Qin Xiaoman walked over.

Although her figure was very enchanting when she walked, everyone's attention was not on her at the moment, but on the two black prosthetic arms she held in both hands.

Because Lei Zhan lost both arms.

This makes the prosthesis almost like two complete arms.

However, in this case, Qin Xiaoman, as a weak girl, did not feel any difficulty at all.

It is enough to prove that the weight of the prosthetic limb is indeed about the same as that of a normal limb.

"Feel sorry."

"The prosthesis Mr. Lei Zhan needs is relatively complete, so it was slightly delayed."

When he got closer, Qin Xiaoman put the prosthetic leg on the workbench and quickly greeted everyone.

At this time, Lei Zhan walked over uncontrollably with his feet, staring longingly at the two black prosthetics.

It looks powerful.

But in the end Lei Zhan suppressed this emotion and did not reach out to touch him rashly.

"This is a neural prosthetic limb that can match the flexibility of the original limb. It looks pretty good." Yu Hongliang walked over immediately, took a closer look at the prosthetic limb and muttered with emotion.

Wang Hui and Yu Hongliang's understanding of prosthetics is limited to the relevant videos released by Xingyuan Comprehensive Demonstration Hospital online. They have not seen real objects offline, so they are more concerned about them than others.

It’s just that neuroprosthetics are not meant to be used as vases for people to admire.

"Next, I will install the neuroprosthesis for you. You should relax as much as possible first."

"Do not worry."

"The process is quick."

While several people were stunned, they heard Qin Xiaoman's voice ringing in their ears again.

The words just fell.

Then he noticed several robotic arms moving over.

Because of Lei Zhan's special status, and because this is another test for neural prosthetics, Qin Xiaoman will definitely not leave it to others to complete.

But faced with two nearly complete prosthetics, it was really difficult for her to install them by herself.

It will undoubtedly be much easier with the assistance of a robotic arm.

that's all.

In the following time, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Qin Xiaoman successfully completed the installation of Lei Zhan's two prosthetic limbs with the help of the robotic arm.

Lei Zhan was very relaxed during the whole process.

Mainly, a neural chip has been implanted in Lei Zhan's body and is in an activated state.

If you are too emotional when installing a prosthetic limb, it will cause the prosthetic limb to make some movements.

Affect the installation progress.

It can only be said that Lei Zhan deserves to be the King of Soldiers.

There is indeed nothing to say about will, it can suppress the desires in the heart very well.

If it were anyone else, it would definitely be difficult to control their thoughts.

I can’t help but want to experiment with mobile prosthetics.

Because of this, under normal circumstances, ordinary people often use anesthesia first when installing prosthetic limbs.

"Mr. Lei Zhan."

"You can try to give the movement instructions in your brain first, just like you used to control your arms."

“It’s definitely going to be a little rusty at first.”

“Familiarize yourself with flexibility and agility for a while and it’s just like before.”

After finally finishing his work, Qin Xiaoman secretly breathed a sigh of relief and softly explained the precautions to Lei Zhan.

Whether the neuroprosthetic limb can be completely justified depends entirely on his performance.

"Oh, okay." After hearing Qin Xiaoman's words, Lei Zhan immediately focused on his arms: "I'll give it a try first."

At this moment, Lei Zhan's two arms were lying quietly on the workbench.

Since a special surface material that is close to the skin has been sprayed after installation, there is no difference to the naked eye.

And in the next second.

The two arms seemed to have received some kind of signal.

First, his flat palms turned into fists, and then he slowly lifted himself off the workbench, bending his elbows and moving his fists towards his face.

Although the movement is a little slow, it is very smooth and almost indistinguishable from a real arm.

once Upon a time.

When Lei Zhan just woke up from the hospital bed, his mood was shattered.

He couldn't accept the fact that he lost both arms.

He would even rather die in battle directly.

Later, Yu Hongliang gave him hope to live again, and he was able to get out of bed and perform rehabilitation training desperately.

But he knew in his heart that he could not continue to stay in the army.

But things are different now.

He had his arm again.

And it is still a pair of mechanical prostheses that are not inferior to the previous ones.

"Moved!"

"My hands are moving!"

"so good!"

It is said that men never shed tears easily, but the moment he saw his arms moving again, the corners of Lei Zhan's eyes suddenly became moist.

It seems like all the suppressed emotions these days have been released.

Although Xu Lei had already imagined this scene in his mind, he still felt a little sad when he actually experienced it.

It can only be said that Lei Zhan's own experience is quite empathetic.

When his thoughts came to this point, he couldn't help but say: "The material used in this prosthetic limb is quite special. It has the same weight as a normal arm but is strong enough to withstand bullets. If you become more familiar with it, maybe your strength will be stronger than before." powerful."

"Thank you, Mr. Xu, for reminding me. I will definitely practice hard and fully control these two arms as soon as possible." Lei Zhan nodded and promised.

I have to say that this neural prosthetic arm is even more powerful when paired with Lei Zhan.

In just a few minutes, the controls became very proficient.

This may be related to his own talent, but it is also inseparable from the powerful functions of neuroprosthetics.

By this time, it can be said that the technology of neural prosthetics is very mature. Even in situations like Lei Zhan, it can exert a strong effect. Even if it is replaced with a leg prosthesis, I believe it will be absolutely no problem.

In this case, the clinical trial can be ended early.

Promote directly to the whole country.

After all, this is a great opportunity to earn influence.

With this thought in his mind, Xu Lei immediately turned his attention to Qin Xiaoman.

"Your performance is very good. I think neuroprosthetics can be promoted nationwide. I will handle any necessary procedures."

"Thanks to the dean for giving us this opportunity." Qin Xiaoman's face lit up when he heard this, and he quickly responded.

And one hundred percent from the heart.

After finishing speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, and continued to add: "In the future, we are also preparing to enter the field of mechanical human organs and develop mechanical organs that can replace human internal organs."

If Xu Lei is very satisfied with the performance of the neural prosthetic limbs, then the mechanical organs make his eyes shine.

After all, he developed neuroprosthetic technology from virtual reality technology, mainly relying on the Science and Technology Museum.

If Qin Xiaoman and the others could develop a mechanical organ, it would be equivalent to putting aside external help and conducting research on advanced technology on their own.

This ability is very valuable.

Xu Lei has indeed helped human civilization achieve rapid technological development by relying on the Science and Technology Museum, but he does not want to make humans dependent. Cultivating capable scientists is equally important.

This is why a research center was initially established to recruit talents from around the world.

Therefore, Xu Lei definitely strongly supports Qin Xiaoman's idea.

Regardless of what the future development of human civilization will be like and whether carbon-based life forms will still remain, there is no way to deny the fact that mechanical organs are indeed very important to humans at the moment.

"This is a good idea. If you encounter any problems, you can always apply for assistance from the company."

"It's the dean." Qin Xiaoman nodded again.

When things develop to this point, it can be considered a happy ending.

Considering that there were still many things to deal with at the base, Yu Hongliang did not stay in the hospital for long. He got up in the afternoon and took Lei Zhan, Wang Hui and the others back to the base.

The most important thing to do after the anti-prosthesis limb is installed is to get familiar with the prosthesis and training. There is no problem in staying in the base.

After all, it is also produced by future technology, and it will never be damaged under normal circumstances.

However, it is worth mentioning that before they left, they shot a short video of Lei Zhan to promote the nationwide promotion of neuroprosthetics.

After all, Lei Zhan is much stronger than Xiaoliang in terms of reputation and popularity, and the influence he will have after being announced to the public will definitely be different.

Originally, the mainstream opinion on the Internet was still on the sidelines and did not want to rush into clinical trials.

Even if it’s free installation.

But no one expected that in just the past two days, Xingyuan Comprehensive Demonstration Hospital suddenly announced that it would end clinical trials and officially promote this technology nationwide.

Especially after the video of Lei Zhan installing neural prosthetics was released, everyone was excited.

Because judging from Lei Zhan's performance, the implantation of neural chips did not have any impact on the body, and the clinical trials were directly stopped, which shows that the neuroprosthetic technology is very mature and complete.

It's not at all what everyone thinks.

The most important thing is that in the newly released video, everyone also found that Xu Lei first proposed this technology and handed it over to Xingyuan Hospital.

This makes many people who did not sign up for clinical trials regret it.

Mainly, ordinary prosthetics in China alone cost a lot of money, not to mention this kind of neurological prostheses that are comparable to the original limbs, coupled with special composite polymer materials, I am afraid the price will be as high as hundreds of thousands.

For ordinary people, it is not a low number.

In fact, since the emergence of the virtual world, more people with disabilities like to stay in it, because being in the virtual world can make up for their incomplete bodies. This feeling is very attractive.

Even if you stay in the virtual world long enough, it doesn't matter much if you install neuroprosthetics or not.

But no matter what, the netizens who previously advised others to wait and see for the time being will definitely be criticized.

Because this has really cost a lot of people a great opportunity.

"I read reports about this military king last month, and I didn't expect that he could recover as before with the help of Xingyuan Hospital's neurological prosthesis. This is indeed good news."

"This kind of person should be treated well."

"Why do you suddenly feel so cool!"

"It turns out that this technology was really invented by Mr. Xu, and Xingyuan Hospital is just the actual execution agency. I really regret not signing up for the clinical trial."

"Registration has been stopped now. I can only wait to go to the hospital to spend money to install the neuroprosthetic limb."

"Who said you shouldn't be a guinea pig in the first place? This is called immature technology."

"I regret it!"

“You can always trust future technology.”

…

With the reputation of future technology, the process of promoting neuroprosthetics nationwide is going very smoothly.

Previously, all hospitals that purchased smart medical cabins were qualified to install neurological prostheses.

The patient arrives at the hospital.

The implantation of neural chips can be completed simply by using the smart medical cabin.

The process is very simple.

However, neuroprosthetics need to be submitted to Xingyuan Comprehensive Demonstration Hospital in advance. After Xingyuan Hospital completes the production, they will be distributed to the following hospitals for installation.

In addition, in order to gain as much influence as possible.

Mobilize the enthusiasm of disabled people to install such neurological prostheses.

The price Xu Lei set for the neuroprosthetic limbs was basically the cost price, and he had no intention of making money from it.

The profits made by those who make the virtual world are already astronomical.

There is no need to worry about this little money.

For Xu Lei, influence is more important and he needs to meet exhibit requirements as soon as possible.

After this conversion, the installation cost of a prosthetic limb is only tens of thousands of yuan.

Most people can handle it.

This is because the material of the prosthetic limb is relatively special, otherwise the cost will be lower.

But the price alone makes many patients excited.

Everyone said that Xu Lei was really conscientious.

So much so that many people spontaneously promote neuroprosthetics.

We want to attract as many users as possible for future technology, and at the same time, we also want to allow those with disabilities to enjoy the treatment of normal people as soon as possible.

It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of treatment is definitely not something other companies can enjoy.

As the number of people equipped with neuroprosthetics increased, Xu Lei also found that his influence had increased significantly, and the growth efficiency was much higher than that of virtual helmets.

in addition.

Just as everyone’s attention gradually shifted to neuroprosthetics.

The new production base of the virtual helmet has been officially put into operation, and the announced production capacity has reached 100 million units per month.

At the same time, the domestic market announced the lifting of purchase restrictions.

Everyone can purchase directly through the official channels of Future Technology.

Once the news is announced.

It soon became a hot search topic on all major platforms and websites again.

Sales took off like a rocket.

Previously, due to production capacity issues, only millions of virtual helmets were launched in the domestic market every day, which made it impossible for many people to grab them.

Now that the purchase limit is finally no longer available, it is natural to buy it immediately.

It can be expected that the number of people online in the virtual world will rapidly increase to over 100 million.

The problem that arises is that the shortage of personnel in the industry increases.

Fortunately, this point has been effectively resolved.

After identifying cooperative intelligent industrial robot manufacturing companies across the country, a large number of intelligent industrial robots are now put into various industries every day, enabling the industry to operate stably.

Because the cost of using future technology intelligent industrial robots is much lower than previous manual labor, the owners of relevant companies are very willing to accept it very quickly.

certainly.

It is fully launched domestically, and there are also new developments overseas.

Almost at the same time, future technology branches previously established in various overseas regions also announced that they would officially launch virtual helmets from now on and adopt a rush purchase mode.

Over the past two months, overseas users can only satisfy their cravings by reposting relevant videos.

It almost turned into a lemon.

Don’t let it be sour.

Now that I can finally buy a virtual helmet, you can imagine how I feel.

Even if I need to rush to buy something, I still can't hide my excitement.

They left messages and discussions on the website.

"My God, I have finally waited for this day!"

"Today I must grab the virtual cabin. Only the virtual cabin is worthy of my identity."

“I can finally experience virtual worlds and virtual games.”

"Those players in Yanfang are too incompetent and have not fully utilized the charm of virtual games. It still depends on the strength of our Dahan."

"I'm afraid it's not easy to grab!"

“It’s been hard to wait until this day, and I must never give up.”

"When we enter the virtual game, we must let the players in Yanfang take a closer look at what real operations are."

“I just want to experience what it’s like to be in love in a virtual world.”

"Do you want to fall in love? I'm too embarrassed to point it out to you, or I'll be permanently banned from the system."

…

Time flies.

A few months passed quickly.

With virtual helmets being sold globally and sales steadily rising, Xu Lei's influence is about to exceed 10 million points.

At the same time, neuroprosthetics have also begun to enter overseas markets.

Wednesday, December 22, 2027.

winter solstice.

Binjiang City.

Longhu High-tech Park.

In the office of the boss at the headquarters, Xu Lei, who had closed his eyes, suddenly opened his eyes, with a look of joy on his face.

"I'm finally close to reaching the 10 million mark of influence. It's really not easy!"

just now.

He controlled his consciousness and entered the Science and Technology Museum to check the influence again.

Since virtual helmets have lifted overseas purchase restrictions a few months ago and adopted the same unrestricted purchase method as domestic ones, virtual helmet sales have increased rapidly.

And demand still exceeds supply.

To date, nearly 700 million units have been sold worldwide.

The number of people online in the virtual world every day remains above 600 million.

This is also due to the strong production capacity of the new production base and the use of intelligent industrial robots.

Otherwise, even if there is such a huge demand, it will not be produced at all.

Another thing is that intelligent industrial robots have also been completely integrated into daily life in the real world.

Not only can smart industrial robots be seen everywhere in urban factories, there are also huge numbers of them in the countryside.

It can be said that it has completely liberated human beings from labor.

As for overseas, because the number of users purchasing virtual helmets is increasing, they also have to purchase intelligent industrial robots, which is equivalent to the lifeblood of the manufacturing industry being controlled by future technology.

It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Lei's influence at this moment is already terrifying.

Enough to not be afraid of any super power.

Perhaps because of the promotion of neuroprosthetics, even though the current sales volume of virtual helmets is only 700 million units, the influence has reached more than 9 million.

It can be said that we are only one step away from unlocking new products.

This made Xu Lei look forward to it even more.

As for the first batch of college students who adopted the new education system this year, they have grown astonishingly with the help of virtual helmets.

Several of them are freshmen from ordinary universities. They published many forward-looking papers during their studies, which can have a positive effect on the future development of mankind.

Naturally, Future Technology was not stingy about this and directly issued an invitation letter to them in the name of the research center.

As long as they graduate successfully, they can directly join the Future Science and Technology Research Center and engage in advanced technology research to lead the development and rise of human civilization.

It can also be regarded as cultivating new blood for the research center.

After all, sometimes the birth of new technologies requires a collision of ideas.

The Future Technology Research Center has not recruited new blood for a long time.

"Based on my current influence and the number of virtual helmets sold every day, it is estimated that it will completely exceed 10 million points in more than ten days."

“It’s really exciting!”

At this time, Xu Lei secretly calculated his influence and basically got the day to unlock new exhibits.

But before Xu Lei could immerse himself in this joy, Xing Tong's familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

"boss."

"Wu Chuping requested to have a video call with you, do you agree?"

"Old Wu is looking for me?" Xu Lei was slightly startled when he heard this familiar name.

Since the completion of the space elevator and astronauts successfully landing on the moon aboard the Shenzhou spacecraft, Wu Chuping has been responsible for the construction of the Guanghan Palace lunar base.

It sounds like we haven't contacted each other for a long time.

At this time, Wu Chuping took the initiative to come looking, presumably because of something important.

Thinking of this, Xu Lei stopped hesitating and wasting time and directly gave instructions to Xing Tong: "Take the video."

"It's the boss."

Almost as soon as Xingtong's voice sounded, Wu Chuping's virtual three-dimensional projection appeared in the office. Looking at the holographic part of the background behind him, it seemed that he was staying in the ground control command center of Dentian Island at this time.

In response, Xu Lei took the initiative to say hello to Wu Chuping with the mentality of an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time.

…
