The End of Technology

Obviously March was not as sure as Ning Zi.

In fact, if countless people in this world can have a second immune system controlled by an artificial intelligence database as described in March, the result will probably be a major reshuffle of many medical-related industrial chains. .

In the future, the demand for clinicians in various departments may plummet, but the demand for immunology researchers will surge. The demand for various biopharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical majors may drop sharply, and the demand for research on biochips and nanorobots may surge; those multinational pharmaceutical companies probably never imagined that algorithms, databases, artificial intelligence, and biochips would be the ones that would bid them farewell to the stage of history. these things.

Wait, what if those large multinational pharmaceutical companies are at risk of bankruptcy?

Ning Zi suddenly realized that Yue Yue might not have said everything.

In fact, the so-called resistance is definitely not just doubts about artificial intelligence, or these doubts are the result of vested interest groups struggling in public opinion.

There are often many reasons why advanced productivity may not be able to replace old productivity in the first place, but the most important one is probably that it touches other people's cheese, which will inevitably usher in various forms of counterattack. Just grabbing the position of public opinion is probably the gentlest way.

Presumably the owner of that world in March didn't bother to care about this and simply immigrated to Mars.

After all, good things that were made with good intentions and could benefit mankind were questioned by the people who were supposed to benefit from them. If it were him, he probably wouldn't be in a good mood. Ning Zi felt that if it were him, he probably wouldn't compete with others over this matter, and he would just use it as he likes.

Some lies, from the moment a person believes them, determines which side the person's butt sits on.

Ning Zi thinks that after this technology is developed in March, he will use himself as a test subject first, and then recommend it to his family and people around him. After everyone has no problem using it, he will finally promote it to the whole society.

If under this situation, there are still people who are brainwashed by those with vested interests and feel that this technology is unsafe, then it means that this technology that changes the quality of human life has nothing to do with them.

Thinking that her father and uncle could live far beyond the average human lifespan, Ning Zi felt good.

It was almost lunch time, and Ning Zi planned to go to the cafeteria of the R\u0026D center to eat. Maybe she had a tacit understanding, but the phone she had left aside vibrated. Ning Zi picked it up and took a look. Sure enough, it was the message from Lu Xiaoya.

Except for the messages Lu Xiaoya sent to a limited number of people at home, Yue Yue would silence them directly for him.

After all, retreat still has to look like a retreat.

They all sent retreat notices to these people, and they still responded to messages as usual, which showed that they didn't respect the word "retreat" enough.

Lu Xiaoya's situation is of course different.

After all, retreat also requires life.

Moreover, this girl is really sensible and always makes things clear when sending messages.

"Principal Chen came to me with President Xu from Shuangdan University and Professor Duncan and asked me to contact you. President Chen asked me to ask you if you could talk to President Xu. Professor Duncan asked if you could Answer some of his questions about mathematics. In addition, they are waiting for your reply right next to me. They also said that they would treat me to dinner, but I still want to go to Ningyuan to eat for free, especially now that I go to Ningyuan to eat and open the blind. It’s the same box, but I don’t know what kind of delicious food I can taste. It’s so interesting.”

Ning Zi was very used to this kind of chatting style where the first half of the sentence was about business and the second half of the sentence started to express personal feelings.

After all, classmate Lu Xiaoya is indeed a seasoned foodie, and the delicacies prepared by Ning Yuan every day are indeed aspirational.

Ning Zi thought about it and quickly replied on WeChat: "The thing that President Xu wants to talk about must be about Ning Yuan poaching people at Shuangdan University. Ning Yuan sent a total of 869 invitations to the outside world. A total of 481 people have responded to the letter and confirmed that they are willing to come to the University. You told President Xu that I was busy with very important things in the laboratory, so you could help me negotiate.

The bottom line of the negotiation is that they must unconditionally release the 481 people who are willing to come to the university, and we can not poach the remaining 388 people. Of course you can also take advantage of it. As for Dominette Duncan, tell him that he is still busy next, so he doesn’t need to pay attention to the papers I published. Let him go to Yanbei University to discuss our ongoing propositions with Professor Fang Xu. I will discuss the new paper with him after I retreat. "

The message from the other party came back faster, first with a "?" expression, followed by a series of messages.

"Me? Are you sure you want me to talk to that Principal Xu? What should I talk about?"

"And I don't know what kind of benefits I can ask for? Dear brother Ning, you want me to ask for benefits? You can't poach their people and ask them for money to build Ningyuan, right?"

"Although I think the worse they are, the better, but I still can't say this. What if he becomes angry and curses, which makes me angry, and I beat him up, but he won't win with force!"

After reading classmate Lu's quick reply, Ning Zi discovered that Sister Yaoqiang was indeed a kind-hearted martial arts practitioner.

The only problem is that he is too kind and not thick enough, and he feels embarrassed even asking for benefits.

"It's okay. If you don't understand anything, I can teach you. For example, you can send Dominic away first, and then take the initiative to invite Principal Xu to Ningyuan for dinner, and Principal Chen will accompany you. Of course, for today's meal, Principal Xu The principal will definitely pay the bill, and you can order whatever you want. During the meal, if Principal Xu talks about this poaching, just ask him directly what benefits he can give you. If you feel satisfied, Just continue talking to him. If you are not satisfied, just eat and don't talk. Anyway, the bottom line has been given to you. I only need the 481 people here."

Ning Zi began to cheer up Mr. Lu. It was impossible for him to negotiate with Xu Shuqing and he could not give the other party too many illusions.

"Well, do you really want me to talk to you?"

"Well, you are the most suitable."

"You don't blame me if the deal falls apart?"

"We won't talk about it. Even if it does break down, don't be afraid. At most, it will be as if we didn't talk about it. Anyway, I didn't want to talk about it."

"I understand. Anyway, I have the advantage. He is the only one who wants anything from us. You actually have nothing to ask for from him, so I can just deal with it casually. Is that what you mean?"

"so smart!"

"Okay, leave it to me! I'll take them to dinner, and you remember to eat too."

"Don't worry. The cafeteria in the R\u0026D center is no worse than Ningyuan. Master Su's apprentice is in charge here. I'm about to go and see if they use it carefully."

"OK!"

…

At the same time, Fan Zhenhua and Fang Xu were chatting together in the office on the second floor of Building 1, Yanbei University International Mathematics Research Center.

It's not a formal discussion, just a simple chat.

However, the file being opened on Fan Zhenhua’s computer was Ning Zi’s thesis.

"Have you been to the National Sports University recently?"

"Yeah, I've been there."

"Ning Zi didn't talk to you about anything? Didn't he tell you why he suddenly published so many papers?"

"That's all. Just let me do some work on the zero-point conjecture with Dominette Duncan."

"Wait a minute, I remember you said at the mathematicians conference that he asked you to do Erdös reciprocals and conjectures?"

"Oh, he said that the subject is mine alone, and it is too slow to produce results. He should first do the Langel zero-point conjecture. If I can do it, I still hope that I can win the Fields Medal in these four years. "

"Ahem...well...that's pretty good. So how many subjects is he doing at one time?"

Fan Zhenhua felt very melancholy. Ning Zi was clearly right under his nose, but she was still like a mystery to him.

The things this kid does always make no sense.

Fan Zhenhua originally thought that the non-parliamentarians on the Internet would bring some vigilance to Ning Jie. He expected that Ning Jie or the National Sports University would directly ask Yanbei University for help, and that everyone would stand together to refute those arguments, and in this way the two sides would be more closely connected.

But I never expected that Ning Zi didn’t seem to consider the conventional methods of handling it at all, or he might not even bother to have a war of words with those people on the Internet. As soon as he launched a big project worth 50 billion, he was directly awarded the title of Double Dan University. Not only did they dig into corners, but they also published ten papers of great academic value at once.

No matter what the outside world's comments about him are, if he can release these ten papers at once, he has definitely secured the title of the first person in contemporary mathematics. If these papers are not controversial in the end, it is certain that Ning Zi will win another Fields Medal at the next Mathematicians' Congress in four years' time.

He even felt that Ning Zi had probably left the category of genius and should be classified as a ghost.

There is no longer a concept of one method that can solve all problems in modern mathematics. It is no exaggeration to say that the span of different research directions may be wider than the span of cross-professional research a hundred years ago. But these barriers are obviously not a problem for Ning Zi.

Fan Zhenhua stayed up almost all night yesterday and roughly read through Ning Zi's paper. He felt very strange. It is as if Ning Zi has made all the mathematical knowledge points summarized by his predecessors his own, so he can easily use the theories in any direction of mathematics.

But Ning Zi's greatest promotion of mathematics is that the mathematical tools given in his papers are groundbreaking. According to the conventional naming method, in the near future there will be Ning's transformation, Ning's space, Ning's formula, Ning's theorem and the previous Ning's division method, etc.

How to describe this kind of influence? Probably when the next World Congress of Mathematicians opens, many graduate students studying mathematics will probably have a headache when they see this name. This is similar to how many graduate students now have a headache when they see Cauchy's name.

Not many mathematicians can enjoy this kind of treatment while they are alive, and even fewer mathematicians can enjoy this kind of treatment before the age of thirty...

"I really don't know about this... every group meeting, ah no, every time we discuss it on Tuesday, the main thing is that we report on the previous topics, and then we communicate about the difficulties we encountered, and then we have a meeting Give some thinking directions and opinions. Basically, after talking about these issues, it is already dinner time, and there is no time to talk about anything else. And Ning Zi has never said his research direction."

"If he didn't say that, why wouldn't you take the initiative to ask? Your relationship with him is different now. Let's communicate more. We can discuss it internally if you ask for more documents." Fan Zhenhua said with a hateful expression. Fang Xu scolded Fang Xu.

There is no way, his student is very good both in terms of study spirit and moral character, but he is too dull and does not understand the ways of the world.

"I actually thought about it, but I can't figure out the current topic, so why bother asking other questions?" Fang Xu replied helplessly.

"What's so embarrassing about this? If you didn't take the initiative to ask, how would you know that they don't want to wake you up? You are going to be a family soon, what are you embarrassed about?"

"Then I'll communicate with him more often when I'm in Beijing during the summer vacation?" Fang Xu couldn't help but choked out a sentence.

"Why wait for summer vacation?"

"Don't you know yet? Ning Zi sent me a message last night, saying that the two weekly group meetings have been temporarily canceled. He is now going to the laboratory of the chip R\u0026D center for retreat. It's almost the final exam now, and I I guess it will be summer vacation when he comes out of seclusion, right?"

"What? Seclusion? What kind of chips is he going to study? Isn't this a joke? What kind of chips does he know?"

"Well, I asked about this. Ning Zi said that when he was a physics major at Huaqing University, he actually wanted to research chips. However, he temporarily gave up the research due to some unexpected circumstances. Later, he had no choice but to Do some mathematical research that can produce results as soon as possible. He can go to the laboratory to see if his previous ideas can be realized. "

Fang Xu's words made Fan Zhenhua say no. He tilted his head and looked at his former disciple suspiciously, confirming: "Did he really say that?"

"Well, that's the reply on WeChat, almost the exact words."

"Can you show it to me?"

Yes, at this time, Fan Zhenhua really couldn't control his inner confusion. He really wanted to see what Ning Zi said.

After all, the two papers Ning Zi published during that period solved two world-wide problems, and one of them was the NS equation problem that allowed him to successfully win the Fields Medal in Mathematics. This guy calls this a math project that can produce results as quickly as possible?

Fang Xu hesitated for a moment, then took out his phone, opened WeChat, then stood up and walked to Fan Zhenhua.

Fan Zhenhua was also able to take a look at the conversation between the two.

…

"What are you doing in a chip lab? That should be something professionals do, right?"

"Yes, but I am actually a professional. You may not believe it. If Huaqing had not asked me to drop out of school because of that incident, my greatest achievement now might be due to my contribution in the chip field." said You may not be able to understand it. After all, pure mathematics research is relatively simple, but real engineering is more complicated and tests people's comprehensive ability. The Huaqing incident taught me that if you want enough resources, you must first have enough reputation, so I had to waste some time doing those simple subjects. Life is so helpless sometimes."

The most spiritual thing is that Ning Zi also posted a panda-head expression of regret at the end of the topic.

This made Fan Zhenhua completely at a loss what to say.

At this time, a word flashed through his mind that was extremely inconsistent with his identity, but it made him feel uncomfortable and uncomfortable. This word was - pretense.

Yes, Fan Zhenhua felt that Ning Zi was showing off, but he could not find any evidence to refute it for the time being.

In the end, he still didn't say this word in front of Fang Xu. He just looked at his beloved disciple and asked, "Do you believe this?"

"Emotionally I don't believe it, but intellectually I think it's possible. And what if after a while he actually achieves results after retreating?" Fang Xu answered honestly.

This sentence left Fan Zhenhua speechless, because in theory this is indeed possible.

Then he looked at the time on his phone, waved his hand and said, "It's noon, go have lunch with Ning Xiao."

"Oh, I'll go first then."

Watching Fang Xu leave, Fan Zhenhua thought for a while, then picked up the phone on his desk and dialed.

"Hello, Principal Zhou, hello, hello. I just want to ask, last time you said you wanted to make peace with Ning Zi, did he never reply? Oh, that's it...he There is no news and no response from me. Well, nothing, nothing, just ask. How should I put it? There is a saying that Xiaoning wanted to research chips in Huaqing before. I just want to ask about the original Did he mention similar applications or anything... Haha, that's what he said. I only found out today that Xiao Ning went to the chip laboratory today, saying that he wanted to retreat and test his ideas... Well, that's it, hang up. Got it!"

Fan Zhenhua sighed after hanging up the phone.

Suddenly sending ten papers in a row, and then going to the chip laboratory for retreat, and adding the words he just sent to Fang Xu, Fan Zhenhua always felt that Ning Zi was holding back a big move.

Thinking that Ning Ji was on the hot search list and the brother school across the street started to be exposed on the Internet, Fan Zhenhua also sympathized deeply, but there was really not much he could do. If this phone call can attract the other party's attention, it would be a good idea to make some preparations in advance.

There was only so much he could do.

…

Huaqing, principal's office.

Zhou Jingxue, who was also planning to go to dinner, received a call from Fan Zhenhua and sat back at his desk.

Although Fan Zhenhua couldn't explain clearly, it was enough to arouse his vigilance.

After thinking about it, he put on his glasses again, turned on his computer and entered the management system of the school's intranet, and opened the school's SRT project management backend.

The SRT project is a research training program for undergraduates. Many well-known universities have similar systems, which allow outstanding students to have access to laboratory research at the undergraduate level that can only be accessed at the master's level.

Some excellent innovative projects can even receive financial support.

Zhou Jingxue entered Ning Zi's name in the search bar, and he actually found two application forms, one of which was invalidated and the other was still there.

After looking at the title of the application, even the Huaqing president could only call him a good guy: "Research on new material three-dimensional heterogeneous chip design and production technology that can bypass Western patent sanctions."

Principal Zhou glanced at the application date again, which was April 1, 2017.

Well, if he remembered correctly, Ning Zi was dismissed in April last year, which meant that the application was probably dismissed before it was reviewed...

Good guy, Zhou Jingxue really wants to impress.

This time point and this title are perfect!
