The richest man starts with a blind box

Chapter 208 Do not publish papers and do not apply for patents
[Some readers said that it is graphene again. This is the routine used by the richest man in instant noodles. I want to say that graphene is just a technology and does not represent the plot direction of the whole book. This is a different development route from the richest man in instant noodles. . 】

"What, Mr. Ni hasn't slept for 29 hours. What are you doing? Do you want to set back the country's technology by 20 years?" When he arrived at the laboratory, he heard the report from the person in charge that Mr. Ni was enough After 29 full hours, that is, after staying up all night, Huang He immediately cursed.

"Boss, it's not our fault. It's not like you don't know Elder Ni's temper. He wants to do experiments, and none of us can stop him!" the person in charge said helplessly.

"Well, I'll give you a privilege. If Mr. Ni hasn't slept for more than 20 hours in the future, you can just lock him in my room and you won't be allowed to come out if he doesn't sleep!" Huang He said cursingly.

"Do you dare?" A vigorous voice scolded, and the person in charge and Huang He faltered at the same time, and Huang He leaned over like a kitten and said, "Old Ni, I'm doing this for your own good. I hope you can live a few more years and create more value for me!"

"That's right, how long a person can live does not depend on how much sleep he sleeps, but on how happy he is living. I stay up late when I am happy. It is also good for the body, do you understand?" Ni Guangnan He said, Huang He couldn't laugh or cry, who could believe that such fallacies came from the mouth of an academician.

"Old Ni, you can go to sleep now!" Huang He said.

"Impossible, you know how happy I am now!" Ni Guangnan's face seemed to be trembling with a smile, "Huang He, you really picked up a treasure, whether it's this Tonghe or that special graphite material, it's all big." baby."

"I have done basic experiments on the material characteristics of graphene. Although the data obtained are relatively basic and one-sided, I am sure that the whole world will be changed by this material in at most 30 years. Countless When designing and manufacturing new products, I am afraid that adding this new material will be considered, because this material can comprehensively improve the capabilities and characteristics of the product.”

"If this is not something you found privately, I will hand it over to the country now!" Ni Guangnan said excitedly, "But you give me a permission right now, and I will immediately ask Tong He to write this paper jointly with me, I promise It can be published in internationally renowned journals, and maybe you can get a Nobel Prize at that time."

"It's not a problem whether I write this permission or not, because this discovery belongs to Tong He, and if I want permission, it is Tong He's permission!" Huang He said with a wry smile, "But teacher, you have considered that if this paper is really submitted, Will there be such a result?"

"Of course, the world's attention, amazed by it, academic sensation, and even won the Nobel Prize is a matter of course," Ni Guangnan said.

This is not wrong. The person who discovered this material in history did win the Nobel Prize very smoothly along the way, because the performance of this material is really outstanding.

"If that's the case, then didn't we give this material to someone else?" Huang He said lightly.

"Give it to someone else? How is it possible? This is our invention. How can it be given to someone else?" Ni Guangnan said puzzled.

"If we want to publish, then we must write a paper, and then the paper must be published on an international journal, and at the same time, we must write a lot of experimental details. In the end, a large number of people will reproduce our experiment. How will we make it? This material will become known to the whole world, isn't this just giving it to someone else?" Huang He said.

"..." Ni Guangnan hesitated for a while, "But we can apply for a patent, so that even if someone else made it, only our family can use it."

"No!" Huang He shook his head. "If it is an ordinary invention and material, there is nothing wrong with doing so. But this material is too versatile. Even if there is a patent, it is difficult to resist other people's research."

"At the same time, the patent protection period of any material is 20 years, and if this material is actually put into the application of computers, I am afraid that 30 years is not enough time."

"So when we can use this material to make computer chips, everyone can already use this material, and the restrictions on patents no longer exist."

"So, if we hand over the paper on this material now, no matter whether it is a patent application or not, it will inevitably be studied by scientists all over the world. Anyway, according to the provisions of the patent law, as long as the technology is not used for business, but for research. , will not violate patent protection.”

"In this way, everyone can study graphene in the laboratory for 20 years, and after our patent expires, it will be used for commercial use in a fair manner. Isn't it equivalent to giving the technology of this material to other countries?" Huang He said lightly.

"I've never considered these issues..." Ni Guangnan was silent for a while, then shook his head, and said rather bitterly, "But what you said makes sense, it's just that this is a research result that will definitely win a Nobel Prize. There is no real achievement in our country that can win the Nobel Prize in Physics.”

"Is the Nobel Prize important?" Hearing what Ni Guangnan said, Huang He asked rhetorically.

"Of course it's important. This is the most outstanding science award in the world..." Before Ni Guangnan could say anything, Huang He interrupted, "Teacher, this award is for scientists who have made major scientific achievements. This achievement was awarded, so according to this point, we have actually won the Nobel Prize now, because we have already researched the same level of achievement, haven't we?"

"Ah... this..." Ni Guangnan was speechless again. Huang He knew it was wrong, but if you want to say where he is wrong, you really can't say 12345.

"But... if this award is not announced, you won't get it, right?" Ni Guangnan said helplessly.

"It's as if the Nobel Prize will be given to us if we announce it!" Huang He sneered, "Mr. Ni, you should know that since the founding of the People's Republic of China, although we have not achieved many achievements, there are still some Nobel Prize winners." There are award-level scientific research achievements, but from the beginning to the end, none of them were awarded to us, why do you think this is?"

"This is... this is..."

"Let me just say it, the Nobel Prize is not completely fair, his review committee is almost all white, and they all have serious ideological divisions, so they will never give us the Nobel Prize of."

"Of course, it doesn't seem appropriate if we don't give it at all, so he will specifically choose some people who can disgust us, such as traitors, such as writers who expose the ugly Chinese society, or those who are suppressed by some scum, who are affected Wronged scientific researchers, they will choose to give to these people, and then use their deeds to disgust us!" Huang He said lightly.

"I think the Nobel review committee is fair, and they won't be as dark as you said!" Ni Guangnan insisted. After all, the integrity of European and American countries has not been lost at this time, and Western society is still an unimaginable paradise for China.

In the cognition of many Chinese, every Westerner is a high-quality man or woman of high quality, and all Western countries absolutely pay attention to fairness and justice, and at the same time, they will not do anything to hinder free trade.

This is a unique Western filter of this era, and it cannot be pierced by Huang He's few words. It requires Westerners to do their own death.

"However, I am still convinced by you, but what should we do now if we don't publish the paper?" Ni Guangnan asked.

"Do you know why many special materials in our country, especially special steel, have been so backward that our fighter engines have been severely restricted and have to use engines from other countries?" Huang He asked.

"Because we can't figure out the formula of those special steel materials, a special material, the addition ratio of each element in it has strict regulations, and even needs to be accurate to more than 10 decimal places. If we can't master the formula, we can't Make the materials we need!" Ni Guangnan nodded.

"That's right. Take a special steel required for the engine. The Americans have developed it 50 years ago, but we haven't mastered it until now."

"Why is this happening? It is because of these special materials that Americans never apply for patents, but instead hide the secret formula in their own safe, so that they don't have to worry about the formula being leaked out."

"Because according to the patent regulations, applying for material patents requires the formula of famous materials, and once the patent is applied for, it is equivalent to publishing the formula. After the patent protection period expires, all enterprises can use these formulas."

"Conversely, if you don't apply for a patent, there is no risk of being used by others."

"My plan is the same as this, that is, we will study this special material in private, with the power of our family, never apply for any patents, and not even disclose any information, so that as long as there is no second person If we stumble upon this particular material, we can conduct our research individually and in secrecy."

"By the time people from other countries discovered this material, we had independently researched and developed it for decades, or even hundreds of years, and accumulated a lot of scientific research results and technical barriers. Just like what we see in the face of computers now Just like a terrifying technical wall, Westerners will kneel in front of the technological high wall we built in the future. Thinking about it this way, I will tremble with excitement!" Huang He said here, really trembling all over .

"However, there is a problem here." Ni Guangnan hesitated and said.

"what is the problem?"

"Money!" Ni Guangnan said, "This brand new material is completely unfamiliar. If you want to thoroughly understand its characteristics, then conduct research and development, find corresponding application fields, etc., all of these require money, and it is unimaginable money. I'm afraid it will take at least several billions, or even tens of billions, to get some simple results, or even get nothing useful."

"Are you sure you want to spend money like this?" Ni Guangnan asked back.

"Smash it!" Huang He nodded very simply, "Since the money is earned, it must be smashed, and it must be smashed hard. No matter how much money you earn, if you don't spend it, how can you be happy?"
