Chapter 1066 Dynamite Award, no, the Emperor Award is here (third update, please subscribe)
Some people submit papers to "Nature" magazine, and some people wait for the latest "Nature" magazine to come to their door.

"Nature" magazine is the oldest weekly scientific magazine in Ming Dynasty, which is widely concerned by the scientific community, and has international influence. Founded in Nanhua in 1865, it has become the most authoritative scientific journal in Ming Dynasty ever since.Of course, it is also an academic journal that is popular among scholars.

As usual, after the publication of the latest Nature, it was sent to the palace.

Emperor Zhu mastered Ming's scientific and technological level by reading this kind of comprehensive science magazines.

As a "plant puller", Emperor Zhu himself has published several papers in the journal "Nature". Those papers are all theoretical. What is their purpose?It is nothing more than to guide and trigger the research of Ming scholars in certain fields.

In fact, although he is an engineering student, Emperor Zhu is not good at many fields. Even if he stands on the shoulders of giants, he will not become a real master. A lot of knowledge is just a little bit of "fur" .

But it was these "furs" that allowed Daming's technological level to make an overall leap forward. Of course, what is the more important reason?
It is the physical goods and various books in the mall, those technical books are the capital of Daming's real rise, and "Nature" magazine is among them.

However, in the past ten years, there has always been a certain difference in the content of the "Nature" magazine in the mall and the "Nature" magazine in the outside world. In fact, the same is true for other books.

Why is this happening?

This is the inevitability of development, because Emperor Zhu is always introducing the technology and products in the mall to the outside world. As the technology here develops, the future products in the mall have also changed. The contents of those technical books , of course... also changed.

It was not until 12 years ago that this situation changed. Emperor Zhu established the "Imperial Central Laboratory" and provided the laboratory with a large amount of theoretical guidance, including papers, which really promoted the progress of basic research.

However, this iteration of world science and technology has a shortcoming-the weak theoretical foundation.In the early days, Nanhua’s industry started with imitation, coupled with the lack of scientific research scholars at that time, this directly led to the inability to absorb and research many advanced theoretical knowledge in the mall.

This requires Emperor Zhu to compare the two "Nature" journals of the same period.Only a little comparison is needed to grasp the overall scientific level of Ming Dynasty.

Isn't this amazing, this is a device with no theoretical basis.

and then?
They influence each other and interact with each other, which directly promotes the progress of technology.It also directly led to the current level of science and technology of the Ming Empire. Many of them stayed at the level of the same period in the 19th century, and many of them have been ahead of the world for nearly half a century.

It can be said that Emperor Zhu promoted the world's technological iteration with his own efforts.

Why did Ming's science and technology level show such uneven development levels?
To put it bluntly, this is also directly related to Emperor Zhu's level. The early products in the mall are only a few years ahead of the world, but Emperor Zhu directly replaced some products through his own efforts. It has also led to the upgrading of mall products.

Almost instinctively, the name of the article on the cover of the magazine made Emperor Zhu's mind involuntarily come up with such a name.

Take ship technology as an example. The overall level is almost at the level of 1900, but many related sub-technologies are still at the level of the 19s.

The technology level of the Maxima Decade sedan was about the same as the Ford Model A of the 20s.However, the technical level of the specially built "BMW 700" has reached the level of the mid-to-late 30s.

What has been deeply changed now is not only Daming, but the whole world is also affected. Technology diffusion is always inevitable. After all, the reason why Emperor Zhu launched those products is in the final analysis to earn money for export. After all, the purpose of running a factory is to make money.

Although the Ming Dynasty already had a wireless station, even if it had already realized intercontinental wireless telegraph communication...but the electromagnetic wave was still "unproven".

It was James Clerk Maxwell, who was one of the scholars that Emperor Zhu personally recruited in Europe, and the two of them had some exchanges on the airship.Although Maxwell pioneered electromagnetism in Daming, he failed to prove the existence of electromagnetic waves until he died of illness four years ago.

Who invented electromagnetic waves?

Why can't you tell?
Because it is a muddled account.

"On the Phenomena of Induction Caused by Electric Processes in Insulators... How?"

But now?
Electromagnetic waves are confirmed!
It was confirmed by a Ming scholar!
Under the light of the desk lamp, he carefully flipped through the paper. After a long time, when Emperor Zhu put down the paper, his expression was full of shock, and even his lips trembled slightly.

But the airship technology has reached the level of 1910+, but the airship does not have duralumin, that is, there is no Zeppelin. The so-called rigid airship is made of wood.What level is this level?
Then there is machine tool technology. Although as early as 1866, the General Machine Tool Company of Nanhua imitated the Spencer machine tool based on the real object, that is, the single-axis automatic lathe and the three-axis automatic lathe, and first imitated a variety of milling machines, planers, and grinding machines. .But its technical level is probably the technical level of 1900+.

But what about automotive technology?

What is the current level there?

Emperor Zhu hurriedly opened this article, which was a paper that proved the existence of "electromagnetic waves" through experiments.

Influenced by advanced technology, European and American technologies are also developing, and their development also promotes the improvement of the technical level of the mall.

Just like now, when Emperor Zhu put two magazines with different covers but the same year and month on his desk, what did he see?
"hertz!"

As for the secret aircraft technology is about the same ... that is, the level of 1910 or so.

What is the overall technological level of Ming Dynasty up to now?
This point, even Emperor Zhu who was standing on the shoulders of giants, couldn't explain it clearly.

Although the "Imperial Central Laboratory" is an "invention center" to the outside world, only Emperor Zhu knows that it is more often a "research center for advanced scientific theories" than practical inventions.

Taking the automobile industry as an example, the development of manufacturing tools has also promoted the change of the manufacturing method itself. From the production of a car in 12 hours to the production of a car in 1 hour, Shengde’s first standardized car in ten years—the Maxima Ten Years A sedan rolls off the assembly line.That's pretty much the state of the art in 1908.

The re-introduction of new technologies has further promoted the development of real technology.In the past 20 years, the technology between the mall and the outside world has promoted and influenced each other in this way.

The reason why I am so excited is because the gold content of this paper is extremely amazing.

After a while, Emperor Zhu leaned back on his chair again, and after nodding happily, he picked up the magazine on the table and said excitedly.

"My God, this is definitely a heavyweight, Nobel Prize-winning discovery!"
