Chapter 181 Two-dimensional Creatures (510)

Chapter 182 Two-dimensional Creatures (5/10)

Qin Yuanqing's mouth was full of professional terms, which made Principal Huai startled for a moment.

Qin Yuanqing spoke continuously for more than ten minutes. Principal Huai's head ached when he heard it, and he was confused. Only three question marks appeared in his head - 'Who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going? ’

Then by some strange coincidence, he responded.

When Qin Yuanqing left, Principal Huai slowly regained his senses and suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

But think about it again, why does Qin Yuanqing sound like that?

However, the top priority was to implement the visiting professorship, so the next day, a photo of Qin Yuanqing and President Huai appeared on the official website of Beihang University, and Qin Yuanqing officially became a visiting professor at Beihang University.

Shuimu University, on the other hand, is facing a formidable enemy. Ni Mei’s Beihang University, what do you want to do? Want to poach someone? no! Absolutely not.

Shuimu University is ready. If Qin Yuanqing is poached by Beihang University, Shuimu University will cry.

At this time, Qin Yuanqing was under the shade of a tree, supporting an old man and walking slowly. The two of them were chatting while walking, followed by a middle-aged woman.

This old man is Mr. Yang, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics and the greatest physicist alive in the 20th century, and the woman is Ms. Weng, Mr. Yang’s wife.

When Qin Yuanqing decided to come to Shuimu University, it was because of news reports that Mr. Yang returned to China and was at Shuimu University.

Just when he came to Shuimu University, he listened to Mr. Yang for three classes, and rarely saw Mr. Yang at other times.

To be honest, although the media has criticized Mr. Yang a lot, you must know that marriage is a private matter between the two of them. There is neither cheating nor other factors between the two, so there is nothing to blame. I also don’t want to think about why no one scolded Brother Dong for marrying Milk Tea Girl, and why the media didn’t criticize and accuse him. Isn’t it because Brother Dong was a super rich man at that time and the media couldn’t afford to offend him.

As for Mr. Yang, he is a physicist and he is old. The media finds him easy to bully.

"Professor Qin, everyone has always known you as a mathematician and an applied engineering physicist. I didn't expect you to have such profound attainments in theoretical physics." Mr. Yang said.

The two met while walking and chatted. Mr. Yang did not expect that Qin Yuanqing had such profound attainments in theoretical physics.

Mr. Yang is now 90 years old. It is impossible to expect him to make any more outstanding physics achievements.

Physicists are very similar to mathematicians. The golden age is from 20 to 50 years old, or to be more precise, from 20 to 40 years old. At this time, attention can be highly concentrated, thinking is quick, and the brain works quickly. The body is also great, not restricted by so many constraints.

After this age, existing knowledge begins to become a barrier, and it is not easy to make outstanding contributions.

Creativity does not belong to the elderly, but to the young.

"Mr. Yang, I have always been indifferent between mathematics and science. To be precise, physics problems are ultimately mathematics problems." Qin Yuanqing smiled and said: "My major is physics!"

Mr. Yang smiled after hearing this. Who would think of Qin Yuanqing as a physicist? When he first saw Qin Yuanqing, he would automatically think of a mathematician.

Yes, there is a saying in the physics community that physics needs mathematics as support, but it does not mean that physics is the same as mathematics.

"It's a pity that I'm old, and it's a little difficult to hear even with the help of hearing aids. Otherwise, it would be a great pleasure to talk to you about physics." Mr. Yang sighed.

He is 90 years old. Although his body is still strong, he already needs hearing aids and his thinking can no longer keep up with his thinking.

"Professor Qin, do you think it's not appropriate for me to get married for the second time?" Mr. Yang suddenly said something, causing Ms. Weng's expression to change.

Qin Yuanqing smiled lightly and said, "This is a matter between you and Ms. Weng. Why should you care about other people's criticism?"

Mr. Yang smiled mockingly: "At first, she persuaded me to give her an assistant status. She didn't care about her status. It's just that I didn't want her to follow me without a name or status. I didn't want her to be infamy. "

Qin Yuanqing nodded slightly. If he chose to give Ms. Weng an assistant status and the two of them lived together without making it public, then naturally there would be no such criticism. But if this is the case, Qin Yuanqing will look down on Mr. Yang, after all, it seems very irresponsible.

Sometimes Qin Yuanqing feels that the media is incredible. They always say that the most important thing for a man is to be responsible. But when Mr. Yang showed responsibility, he was scolded in various ways. At this time, why didn't he say that this is a man's responsibility? Doesn't it matter when a man gets old? Isn't it responsible?

Of course, this matter can be said to be very complicated, or very simple to say. After all, where the world is, few people can transcend the shackles of the world!

"Zhili was seriously ill and wanted to return to his roots, so we returned to Shuimu and settled in the capital. But sometimes, people can't defeat God, and Zhili died of illness." Mr. Yang seemed to recall the scenes a few years ago: " During the days when Zhili left, I was often alone, walking alone on the tree-lined paths we once walked. I would also open the thick old photo album, and the past decades, like smoke, all came to my mind. Come to mind."

Qin Yuanqing couldn't help but recall the memories of professors in the physics department last year: "He was always alone, attending classes alone, eating alone, reading books and watching TV alone, and sleeping alone..."

"During those days, I felt the horror of loneliness. I didn't want to live a long lonely life like Hamilton, and there were even food stains on the pages of the book. Haha, I am a very honest person, I am self-aware, an old man I am very afraid of human loneliness. So when people ask me, I answer honestly, if I had not met Weng Fan, I would still have remarried." Mr. Yang said self-deprecatingly.

Aging, in many cases, often means the deterioration of physical functions, weakening or even loss of creativity, and together with it is the loneliness that seems to be trapped in an endless dark night.

Sometimes, God is really fair, fair when you are alive and fair when you age. No matter how rich you are and how powerful you are, it is difficult to avoid aging.

Immortality is just a fairy tale.

From ancient times to the present, no one can live forever.

"Professor Qin, do you think there really is a god in the dark, who has planned everything in the world? This world is both a world and a prison, so that we humans, two-dimensional creatures, cannot see the three-dimensional world. Even the four-dimensional world?" Mr. Yang suddenly said.

"Maybe there really is a god!" Qin Yuanqing thought for a moment and said.

Many people think that humans are three-dimensional creatures, but in fact they are not. In terms of dimensions, there is no essential difference between humans and ants, snakes, elephants, etc. They are all two-dimensional creatures, two-dimensional beings living in a three-dimensional space. .

So in ancient times, people always believed that the sky was square and the earth was round. At that time, this view was actually correct.

It was only with people's exploration of nature that they discovered that the sky was not square and the earth was round, so they came to the conclusion that the earth is round. This conclusion was not truly confirmed until the successful launch of artificial satellites and complete photos of the earth from space.

But this does not change the fact that the earth is a two-dimensional life, because without the help of tools, what you see is still two-dimensional.

There is a saying in the scientific community that the essence of human exploration of nature is the progress of life, or the evolution of life dimensions, which is the evolution from two-dimensional life to three-dimensional life. It is this power of life evolution that drives nature. The development of science.

Today's human beings are at most 2.5-dimensional beings, not true three-dimensional beings. When humans truly enter the interstellar age, they will be truly three-dimensional beings.

As Mr. Yang said, it is not a secret in the scientific community to suspect that there is a creator, or God. Not only Mr. Yang, many physicists and even mathematicians have such speculations.

For them, they have seen it decades or even hundreds of years earlier than their time, and it will take decades or hundreds of years for their discoveries and achievements to be actually applied and popularized. In other words, even if their doubtful human beings Even hundreds of years of development may not be able to solve it.

Didn't Newton also have this doubt at the time? His writings in his lifetime amounted to 16.7 million words, about 84% of which were theological works. Many people say that Newton was the greatest physicist of the 17th century. In fact, Newton was also the greatest mathematician of that era, and he was also the greatest theologian.

Many people will say that the Creator does not exist and God does not exist.

But who can prove that the Creator does not exist! ?

No!

No one has been able to make such a proof so far!

Of course, no one can prove the existence of the Creator.

In other words, the current methods cannot prove the existence of the Creator! Since this is the case, how can we directly criticize the belief in the existence of a Creator?

As Qin Yuanqing once said in a lecture, the so-called truths, theorems, and axioms are all put forward by people in the process of exploring nature. At this stage, they can better explain what has been discovered. And the more you explore, perhaps the so-called truths, theorems, and axioms will be overturned.

Maybe after people study and study, it is not impossible to prove that the Creator exists, or even that the Creator directly appears in people's sight.

Many mathematicians, physicists, and chemists have believed in God since childhood, but this does not prevent them from exploring, discovering, and making outstanding contributions.

The vast majority of people in China believe that science is correct and omnipotent. This is just because they were born in China and have a worldview developed through education since childhood.

That speech on my 100th birthday was really touching.
