Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

A villa in the suburb of Jinling, in the study of Lu Zhou's home.

In a light blue holographic beam, a uniquely shaped space station is floating. The spacecraft of Hetianzhou and Atlantis are not the same. The shape of this space station is like a gyro pointed to the center of the earth, with four thick cantilever arms extending to the outer side. The outer side of the cantilever is followed by a curved structure.

If you ignore the space between the arc-shaped structures, the entire outermost structure looks like a closed ring.

At this moment, Lu Zhou, who was sitting in the study room, was meticulously staring at the three-dimensional composition suspended in the holographic beam, while calculating something, and carefully adjusting the parameters of each component.

Taking the coffee into the study, looking at the host who was concentrating on work, Xiao Ai approached the past and asked curiously.

"Master, what is this? (?????)"

After hearing Ai's curious inquiry, Lu Zhou replied casually.

"The space station, or more precisely, the head of the space elevator."

When he was in Beijing before, he learned that the progress of the entire space elevator project was not as optimistic as Li Guangya said, and everything was under control.

After leaving the Institute of Orbital Design of the Pan-Asian Academy of Sciences, he went to the East Asian Heavy Industry and Aviation Research Institute one after another to learn about the work of the relevant units of the entire space elevator project, and finally came to a conclusion

The problems encountered by East Asia Power are also reflected in giant enterprises and institutions such as East Asia Heavy Industry and Pan-Asian Academy of Sciences, but they are probably less interference from external factors, and the latter is far less rich than the former, to a lesser extent Lighter.

It seems that when society develops to a certain degree, the trap of prosperity is almost inevitable.

At the beginning of this era, Lu Zhou was also skeptical about the plan to reinforce the future. Why did he send the elites of various industries during the depression of the 1950s to the distant future, and expected them as "old antiques" It glowed, but now it seems that this plan is not so useless.

Although the facts do prove that it is impossible to expect future people to accept the management of the ancients, whether power, knowledge or assets may shrink under the baptism of time, but in a sense, those who have been reinforced from that era , And indeed to some extent alleviate the impact of the prosperity trap.

Of course, although the situation is more severe than expected, there is nothing to be optimistic about.

At least the strong industrial capabilities of East Asia Heavy Industries have really opened his eyes to the scholar from the 21st century, and the accumulation of engineering research by the Orbital Design Institute and the Aerospace Institute has also made considerable achievements for the technical realization of the space elevator. Big foundation.

It is only relative. His original idea of ​​"being a shopkeeper and leaving the whole project to others" was probably given up.

Otherwise, I am afraid that after waiting for ten or twenty years, this space elevator may not be able to see the shadow.

Just as Lu Zhou refocused on the model in the holographic beam, he suddenly sneezed without warning.

"Who is thinking about me again ..."

Reaching out and rubbing his nose, Lu Zhou muttered in a low voice, and was heard by Xiao Ai, who was standing beside him, and immediately interjected happily.

"Of course it's Xiao Ai! Only Xiao Ai is always thinking about the master! ()"

"Yes Yes Yes."

He was accustomed to making fun of Xiao Ai. Lu Zhou replied casually and took a moment to glance at his inbox. Sure enough, he saw an unread email in it, so he freed his index finger and clicked on it.

Soon, the light blue light particles changed, and a greeting card-like email appeared in front of him.

[Thank you for your trust in me and the reward, this huge sum ... left me overwhelmed for a while, and only recently did I decide how to use it. I plan to take my apprentice to travel around the world. It will take about two months to return. If you have any modification needs during this period, I will entrust my friend to provide you with modification services. 】

Attached is a selfie by the beach, although Lu Zhou is not interested in men's selfies.

About the beginning of the year, he asked the young man named Han Ming to help himself. Although Xiao Ai Tucao's own compensation was a little too high, Lu Zhou did not intend to repent.

Anyway, for him, money is just a number that can't bring any surprises.

After reading the mail, Lu Zhou threw it into the recycle bin, left the matter behind his head, and refocused on the model at hand.

However, Xiao Ai, who stood aside, showed an envious look.

"It's great, Xiao Ai also wants to travel around the world with her host. ('???`) "

Lu Zhou: "I prefer to spend my time alone in a quiet place, rather than traveling, to delve into issues that interest me."

Xiao Ai: "Oh, but research can be done at any time. (? °? °?)"

"It's true in theory ... well, I just don't quite understand, going to a place just to see what it really means."

"But the host is going to leave here, isn't he going to leave some memories? ('???`) "

The index finger on the holographic screen paused for a while, and Lu Zhou stopped for a moment, then looked at Xiao Ai unexpectedly.

"How did you know?"

Frankly, he did have such an idea more than once, and even in a sense, the last time he visited Princeton again for similar reasons.

With the completion of the second-generation controllable fusion, he is getting closer and closer to the lv10 level of the whole subject. He feels that the alienation between himself and the real world seems to be getting stronger and stronger.

It's not because of the generation gap but what.

It was a deep sense of foreboding that told him that with endless time, he would be led by fate to a very distant place, and that is where his final destination will be.

Xiao Ai: "Xiao Ai can't say clearly, but the owner said a long time ago, would you like to take a look at Tiancang Wu? And ... the second-generation controllable fusion is prepared for this."

Maybe it ’s more appropriate not to know what emoji character should be used. In Xiao Ai ’s pupil, this time there is no string floating.

Facing the holographic image in his hand, Lu Zhou was silent for a long time and suddenly said.

"... If I were going to go far away, would you go with me?"

Xiao Ai: "Of course! No matter if the host is going to the center of the galaxy or the edge of the universe, Xiao Ai will stay with the host! (??????) ??"

Although it was an expected answer, after hearing this, Lu Zhou felt a little warm in his heart.

With a smile on his face, Lu Zhou reached out his hand and rubbed it on top of his head.

"Always follow me. You can't advance to advanced artificial intelligence like this."

Xiao Ai: "Hum, that's bad. ()"

That said, the future is unpredictable.

All he can do is grasp the present.

After finishing the calculation of the last parameter, looking at the holographic blueprint of the formed space station suspended in the palm of his hand, Lu Zhou's mouth pulled a smile.

Get it!
