Tech Hammer

The vast majority of the audience was a little confused at this time.

Along with the sound of the radio, the torch bearers have begun to pass, but the torch does not seem to be lit...

However, before anyone could react, the lights suddenly dimmed...

This was surprising. Not only the Beehive Stadium, but also the surrounding three kilometers went dark at this moment.

People in many nearby communities came out of their homes and came to their balconies or windows to look at the beehive not far away.

In the gymnasium, only the three-dimensional display hanging high in the center of the square was still working. At this time, the camera had switched to the space station. The three astronauts were standing in the main control room, looking at the solemn expression of Yan Zhongjie, the oldest of the astronauts. At a certain moment, the red button on the operating room was pressed...

The next moment, the three-dimensional display lens quickly turned out of the space capsule, and a ray of light connected the space station and the earth at this moment...

Before the audience could react at all, they saw a slender beam of light falling from the sky. This beam of light illuminated everything in front of them. Not only the beam of light, but also the torch bearer and the torch held high in the sky. The next moment, The beam of light hit the torch, and the torch ignited hot flames and came into contact with the Olympic flame. The Olympic flame ignited at this moment...

This moment should have started cheering, but the stadium seemed unusually quiet...

Of course, there is a reason for this...

Countless images are transformed too quickly, and it takes time for the human brain to react.

…

Time goes back ten seconds.

The moment the indoor lights went out, Shan Jianyu carried a beer and followed his colleagues to the balcony, talking and laughing.

As soon as Shan Jianyu raised the bottle to his mouth, he saw the beam of light falling from the sky, accurately shooting directly into the Honeycomb Square, illuminating the entire area as if it were daytime...

The three people were stunned for a moment...

I can't swallow the wine no matter what...

I just thought about taking out my phone...

However, everything has passed, and those few seconds just seemed like a dream...

Until it lights up again inside the Beehive Stadium...

"Fuck...did you just see that?"

"Nonsense, I must have seen it!"

"What just happened?"

"Um, the ignition part? Ignition?"

"Fuck, I didn't take the photo! If I had known, I would have been waiting with my phone!"

"The community has a surveillance camera to prevent high-altitude parachutes. I remember it was facing the direction of the honeycomb. There is also a UPS power supply. I brought a pack of cigarettes back with me and we went to make a copy..."

"Hey, the lights are on, let's watch TV!"

"Fuck, hurry up!"

…

At the same time, viewers and netizens in China and other parts of the world who were watching this feast on live television probably had the most comprehensive view, but the camera switching frequency was extremely high and the information was extremely compact.

From the astronauts in the space station pressing the button, to space, a line is sent out from the space station and rushes directly towards the small breaking ball. Then the torch bearer is hoisted by the sling, maintaining the flying posture and holding the torch high. Then the light that rushes out directly hits the torch. Here is a close-up of the torch being ignited after contact with the light. When the light disappears instantly, the flame of the torch appears to be spurting out, and the hanging rope continues to rise at a constant speed until the torch touches Holy fire...

The camera flashed across the auditorium at this time, and the different expressions fully interpreted the expressions of human beings when they are not prepared for a sudden fright. Some stared blankly in the direction of the torch with their mouths wide open, while others covered their faces with both hands and left only The slit for the eyes, and the one who raised his hands high, then put them on the back of his head and raised his head to reveal two nostrils...

At least five seconds later, this weird scene was finally replaced by cheers all day long. When the camera passed by again, there were only countless crazy shouts and waving red flags...

The atmosphere at the scene finally rose at this moment!

The only regret is that, probably in order to keep a low profile, the TV broadcast commentary did not explain much in detail, but only played the important scenes twice in a limited time of a few minutes.

The only dubbing was the narrator's passionate sentence: "...At this moment, the faster, higher, and stronger spirit broke through the obstacles of gravity, and connected to the starry sky openly!"

So the atmosphere on the webcast barrage also increased,

"Fuck... who the hell can tell me loudly what happened just now? Am I the same as what I saw?!"

"Science students, I can't find any other adjective other than awesome in capital letters!"

"Sure enough, as long as you live long enough, you can witness history. I'm witnessing history again!"

"I'm so scared that this is so damn accurate. If it's just a little off, will the torch bearer's arm be gone?"

"I'll go, the angle is so weird, it's scary to think about it, but I still want to say it's awesome!"

"I'll just put it here. Someone won't be able to sleep well tonight!"

"Pay attention to the commentary. The word magnanimity is really perfect when used in today's situation!"

"I have to admit my mistake. The opening scene can only be counted as four twos. It turns out Wang Zha is here... Damn, I'm crying!"

…

This is not over yet, because there is a lot of information that needs to be read together.

After the ignition was completed, mobile phone speech videos shot from multiple angles began to appear on many small video software.

In the 1 minute and 35 seconds long video, Professor Ning, who has attracted much attention, is making a speech.

"...As scientific researchers, our goal is to make 100% efforts so that every Chinese person can use the simplest method to solve some of the small problems in life. Just like this time, we This laser can be used to light torches. Perhaps in the near future, there will be hundreds or thousands of satellites carrying laser generators in low-Earth orbit, which can provide real-time ignition services to every smoker who forgets to bring a lighter. ?”

"As long as you have a mobile phone, the cooperation of our March Intelligent System with the Beidou System and Tianlian Satellite, plus an APP, you can guide the senior who forgot to bring a lighter to a safe place that will not affect anyone else. A simple Once the voice operation is confirmed to light the cigarette, a laser will fall from the sky to solve the problem of forgetting to bring the lighter..."

Obviously these short videos must have been recharged initially, otherwise there would be no such crazy traffic.

When many people clicked on it, they saw more than 700,000 likes and 123,000 comments, and it began to spread wildly in various group chats, online communities, and BBS...

All-powerful netizens also began to show their wit and humor, and all kinds of ridicule began to become popular on the Internet.

"Thank you, Academician Ning, for never forgetting smokers despite your busy schedule."

"I always forget to bring my lighter when I go out. I shed tears of happiness at this moment!"

"Got it, now I'm going to join Didi and Dianyan!"

"Please give me the APP quickly! I can't wait to give it a try!"

"We have redefined what commercial dimensionality reduction means. Zippo probably never imagined that one day it would not be its peers but space that would grab business."

"At this moment, I took out the three disposable lighters that I had just confiscated from my pocket and fell into deep thought..."

"Please light up a cigarette like this and charge a starting fee of 100,000 yuan. It will not only give rich people a new way to show off their wealth, but also allow everyone to control themselves a little. Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be no dark nights in the community from now on."

"This video combined with today's opening ceremony, I suddenly realized something."

…

I played it a lot and got out of the circle smoothly...

Soon, as the video of the opening ceremony spread widely on various foreign social software, the video of Ning Wei's speech also began to spread, and it was beyond control. "Chinese Space Cigarette Lighting" became the most popular topic that night. The searched word, even for a period of time, accounted for 80% of Google searches...

…

Everyone in the control center and the entire studio breathed a sigh of relief almost simultaneously.

The mission was successfully completed...

Not to say it's perfect, but at least it reaches the upper limit of their abilities.

It's just a pity that there is still a lot of material.

However, in this Internet age, these materials will definitely not be wasted. With a little editing, they can be posted on the Internet.

Although the whole ceremony is not completed yet, the most difficult part has been conquered, which is perfect.

…

Live at Beehive Stadium.

There were deafening cheers next to him, but Wu Yufei was still looking at each other with his colleagues around him.

As scientists in the academic field, they understand the difficulty of this better than ordinary people.

Although they don't have enough information now, judging from the video that just flashed by and the laser falling from the sky, this is most likely true.

After all, there are more than just Chinese satellites in the sky. Satellites in various orbits have already made the entire outer circle of the earth extremely busy. Such obvious actions will definitely be captured by countless cameras, and there is no possibility of fooling people.

Especially on an occasion like today.

More importantly, academics are well aware of the difficulty of achieving this effect. After all, the space station is not in synchronous orbit, but in low-Earth orbit, which means that the space station is moving at high speed relative to the earth. In addition to the distance of nearly 400 kilometers, let alone ignition, confirming the coordinates at a fixed point also involves complex time and space conversion problems. In addition, both sides are in a moving state, and the mathematical problems that need to be solved at that moment can be said to be astronomical. Not to mention the amount of calculations...

Therefore, from the perspective of professionals, what they see is not how accurate the laser is, but the breakthroughs in multiple basic technical links involved in achieving all this. This is the most appalling thing. As for the second most terrifying thing, it's probably something on another level, at least it's not something Wu Yufei needs to consider...

Soon, Wu Yufei felt that his phone in his pocket seemed to be vibrating constantly. He took out his phone, clicked on it, and found that there were many unread messages on his What's ap.

"Wu, I heard that you were at the opening ceremony of Huaxia?"

"Did you see that light?"

"Oh my god, I can't believe my eyes, tell me Wu, that's fake! It's all a scam?!"

"What was the scene like? Is there any video?"

"Look at this video! It has spread all over the Chinese Internet!"

Wu Yufei did not reply to these messages. He really didn't know how to answer, and he believed that his colleagues who are still abroad have probably started to verify it in many ways, and may even have more information than him.

So he first clicked on the video sent by his colleague. The video showed Ning Wei standing in front of a console and giving a speech. The efficiency is super high. The video already has a Facebook watermark, and there are not only Chinese speeches, but also English subtitles.

Ignoring the noise around him and reading what Ning Wei said in the video through subtitles, Wu Feiyu wordlessly handed the phone to his colleague who was still looking confused and shocked. A minute and a half later, the colleague returned the phone to Wu Yufei. , and then said meaningfully: "Dr. Wu, I think you can be honored to fulfill his entrustment. As far as I know, Edwin likes to smoke cigars, but he definitely doesn't like to have a beam of light above his head..."

…

Not far from where the two of them were, Chen's father had just recovered from his daze. He grabbed his son's hand and asked, "Dian Cheng, you said that Director Ning participated in the opening ceremony. Is this it?"

"Yes...but it must be kept secret before!"

"Chun..."

"Is this what Einstein is like?"

"Don't say that. What I, Director Ning, often say is that he hopes that when he goes down, Einstein will give up his seat to him and Newton will light his cigarette."

"..."

…

USA.

In fact, for the other side of the ocean, the timing of this large-scale Chinese performance is very friendly to them. It is on the weekend and it starts when they get up in the morning. Turn on the TV leisurely, lean on the sofa and watch the broadcast. If you are not interested in the content, you can still cook, pick up your mobile phone and check Facebook.

That's what happened to Maynard Jeffers.

But in the past few minutes, he had sat up straight unconsciously, and even dropped his phone to the ground without realizing it...

When he reacted and picked up his phone, he saw a lot of content suddenly appeared on Facebook. He once again felt that his IQ had been seriously humiliated...

Then he had a hunch that today's vacation might end early. It seemed necessary for him to rush to the NASA office immediately and prepare another report.

However, as soon as this idea popped out of his mind, before he could put it into action, the phone rang.

"...Huh? Remote video call? Now...is it because of my previous report or because of what happened just now? God, I knew...Okay, okay, I will be ready, please give me five minutes Send the time and address directly to my email."

After hanging up the phone, Maynard Jeffers quickly took off his pajamas and put on his shirt and formal clothes. He didn't even bother to change out of his pants, so he rushed to the toilet and simply washed his face and wiped his face. He didn't have much hair, and after making sure that his image was acceptable, he immediately rushed into the study.

Exactly four minutes later, I turned on my computer, entered the software, clicked on the video to make sure that only half of my body was exposed, then entered the video conference room, and then accepted questioning as an expert.

"...Yes, Your Excellency, according to our analysis, the intensity is not enough, but the accuracy is beyond doubt. We have reason to believe that the light only carries a simple signal that can activate the switch. Of course, this does not mean that technically It is impossible to ignite directly with a laser. It just requires a higher-power laser generator, but that requires a higher cost, so probably for cost considerations, this method was used..."

"Uh? What video?!"
