From small town scholar to chief scientist

Chapter 249 A Theoretical New Battery
Zhou Yi was also very embarrassed watching them all staring at him.

I just did it to predict earthquakes.

I didn't expect this group of people to be so excited.

Basically all the people who can come in the field of geodynamics have come.

Zhou Yi took the microphone handed over by Academician Zheng and said:

"Everyone, in fact, I really didn't want to study the geodynamics in depth. I really just did it at the beginning."

Before Zhou Yi finished speaking, everyone present screamed.

Just play around, overthrow the old system, and become the patriarch of this industry?
You really don't care about our feelings.

Everyone was thinking whether Zhou Yi was still deciding whether to go deeper into this direction when Zhou Yi was so old.

As a result, they are already the originator of this direction.

Seeing that the scene had quieted down, Zhou Yi continued:

"So don't expect me to continue researching this direction, but there is one thing I can point out to you.
Dark matter and dark energy definitely exist, so the research directions I mentioned must have a future.

Of course, you can try to study how to use seismic waves, which is a direction with great potential.

At that time, I am afraid that he will become the top patriarch in this industry. "

Zhou Yi first affirmed the feasibility of this subject, and then drew a wave of big cakes,
The purpose is to want someone to go in the direction of converting seismic waves into possible energy.

The people present included old people, middle-aged people, and young people.

Maybe middle-aged and elderly people are difficult to fool, but young people are easier to fool.

If you really have plans in this regard, you can just ask to come to Chongqing University to study for a Ph.D. in the future.

Or they have made huge scientific research achievements and are directly hired with high salaries.

After Zhou Yi proposed several possible development directions of geodynamics, he got up and left, and returned to the mathematics lecture hall.

At this moment, Shen Yiyu and Zhang Dugang are accepting questions from their international counterparts.

Each professor's questions were very specific, but the two of them still saw some big scenes.

Although he looked nervous, he still answered questions from many international mathematics colleagues in an orderly manner.

Zhou Yi looked at them and was very satisfied, although a little green,
But he is still young, and in time, he must be able to become a star mathematician in a certain branch.

Qiu Chengtong on the side said to Zhou Yi:

"You guys are good students. You have a bit of the taste of the golden generation back then. Maybe a little stronger than the golden generation back then.
They are only 24 years old? "

Zhou Yi said:

"almost."

Sun Song on the side immediately said:

"Professor Zhou, Mr. Qiu, Xu Chengyang is probably 22 years old and still studying for a master's degree with a certain field. It is a shame for our teacher."

Qiu Chengtong didn't speak, neither did Zhou Yi, Xu Chengyang couldn't bear it anymore, and sneered:
"Hehe. Our level is about the same now. You haven't won the Fei Award yet."

Sun Song was born in the junior class of the University of Science and Technology of China. He was a Ph.D. student much earlier than Xu Chengyang. He was a Ph.D. student in the Department of Mathematics of the University of Wisconsin-Madison at the age of 20.

Sun Song glanced at Xu Chengyang and said:

"Hehe, we will see the outcome in two years."

The words of the two are always at war.

Zhou Yi said with a haha:

"It's just a palindromic conjecture. I don't even bother to study the conjecture of number theory, which is not worth mentioning. It has no gold content."

Three people:? ? ? .

Although I know you like to talk dirty, don't pretend to be like that.

24 years old is amazing.

Zhang Jiahui behind Zhou Yi said:
"Hey, Teacher Zhou, I also want to prove a mathematical conjecture after graduation."

Many mathematicians around Zhou Yi looked at the teachers and students of Zhou Yi dully,

Even if you are so young in Zhou Yi, the entire division graduation requirement is to prove a certain conjecture?
When they were 24 years old, most of them were still studying, and the apprentices you brought had already started to solve mathematical conjectures independently?

It is not easy to make major breakthroughs in certain conjectures.
also proved.

Master Zhou Yi is really perverted.

Zhou Yi said to the two newly recruited apprentices:
"Study the basics well and have enough mathematical knowledge reserve to be able to solve some mathematical conjectures."

"Ok."

In the morning there will be a report on the conjecture of palindromic numbers, and in the afternoon Zhou Yi will go to a report on physics and chemistry.

During lunch, Xia Xue said to Zhou Yi:

"Brother Yi, I'm going back to Shuimu University. The book I wrote has already been submitted, and I don't know if it will be accepted."

Zhou Yi said worriedly:
"Why don't you launch a magazine founded by a research assistant first? I've read your novel, but it may not be published."

Xia Xue said softly:

"Let's not pass it on. If it's soon, I'll be able to graduate with a Ph.D. in summer vacation."

Zhou Yi sighed and said:

"It doesn't have to be that realistic."

Xia Xue said:

"But that's what literature is all about."

Zhou Yi said:

"I'll accompany you to the airport in the afternoon, and the helicopter will be fast."

"Ah."

The two rested for a while after eating, and Zhou Yi contacted Tian Yiguang. The helicopter went back and forth very quickly, less than an hour and a half.

So when Zhou Yi returned to Chongqing High Court,
The afternoon session of the physics report has just begun.

Wang Yifang saw Zhou Yi coming and said:
"Professor Zhou, the person speaking on the podium is Yin Xi from Harvard University."

Zhou Yi was a little surprised and said:
"Yin Xi? That legendary child prodigy? The child prodigy who was admitted to the University of Science and Technology of China at the age of 12?"

Wang Yifang said:

"It is indeed him. Although there is a lot of controversy on the Internet, but if you understand it carefully, it is mainly because of many keyboard warriors."

Then Wang Yifang talked about Yin Xi.

Zhou Yi said:

"This kind of choice is also normal. Many people will make this kind of choice, and it has been exposed on the Internet. Forget it, this person is too controversial, so I won't dig it."

Wang Yifang immediately said:

"Good Professor Zhou. His research on string theory and quantum gravity is really good, and he has won some awards."

Zhou Yi shook his head and said:
"This person is too controversial. Compared with the golden generation such as Xu Chengyang, the controversy may be a little bigger.
After all, his words were also very fierce at the beginning, and it is estimated that some people deliberately guided him like this.

Of course, some brainless keyboard warriors are not ruled out. "

Wang Yifang said with great respect:
"Okay, Professor Zhou. I see."

I saw Yin Xi introducing the string theory above.

"Right now, we don't know if string theory is the right theory to describe the universe,

But string theory is a deep mathematical construct that is mathematically flawless.

This also rendezvous with the imagination we already know in many universes,
Isn't this the most successful attempt to fit gravity into the framework of quantum mechanics?
Maybe our chance of success is less than 0.1%, but many authoritative theories, before being overthrown, are "

Zhou Yi smiled when he heard this, and said:
"It's interesting. I have also studied string theory. It's not so much about physics as it is about mathematics.

Mathematical perfection, flawless. "

Wang Yifang said:

"Then we will use CEPC to verify string theory later?"

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said:

"Maybe CEPC can't verify the correctness of string theory, but we can try it later.
CEPC mainly serves for controllable nuclear fusion and its respective applications. If a new physics can be created, it will naturally be no problem. "

It's not that Zhou Yi is not optimistic about string theory, but that so many experiments have failed to detect the existence of strings.

Or there are no corresponding features, isn't this suspicious?
Despite the beauty of its structure and its correctness, physics is, after all, an experimental science.

Any physical theory may be overthrown without experimental verification.

That's why a group of people at CERN are working to overthrow the standard model.

Because what Yang Zhenning predicted has already been predicted today.

The discovery of the Higgs boson is tantamount to further verifying the authority of the Standard Model.

That's why Yang Zhenning opposed the establishment of CEPC in various ways.

After listening for a while on the physics side, Zhou Yi said to Wang Yifang:

"I'm going to the report meeting on the chemistry side. You can host it. There are top scholars who are willing to come to work with us.
Have a good talk and try to sign it.Before CEPC was established.

The strength of the Institute of Physics is basically at the bottom of the five disciplines. "

Wang Yifang said:

"Ok."

Zhou Yi said:
"Also, those physicists who are not too controversial, or who are still Chinese in their bones, try to contact them as much as possible.

We have CEPC, which holds the absolute initiative, and I am the leader, so I am not afraid of any risks. "

Wang Yifang said:

"Okay, Professor Zhou."

After Zhou Yi finished speaking, he went to the floor where the chemistry report meeting was located.

Regarding chemistry, Zhou Yi mainly asked Zhang Tiande to research on batteries.

Because the broken battery that has been lingering for a long time may be able to be resolved,

Bring a transformative development to the whole world.

If the tram can stand by for a super long time, coupled with controllable nuclear fusion,
In the future, fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas will all be phased out.

At that time, whoever masters this technology will master all aspects.

Now that there are trams, will there be electric planes?
Electric boats will also be born at the historic moment.

The current goal is to recruit various domestic chemical talents to come to Chongqing Higher Academy to complete this transformation.

Academician Zhang said at this moment:
"In the current global power battery market, the three countries of Great Xia, Island, and Korea account for more than 90% of the market share.

Since 2020, our power battery industry in Daxia has shown a continuous growth trend.
However, the share of power batteries in South Korea and Japan continued to decline.

However, with the rapid expansion of the global electric vehicle market and the deployment of battery technology and industries in Europe and the United States, the competition in the global battery industry will become increasingly fierce in the future.

So we need a breakthrough theory to revolutionize the current battery market. "

At this time, Academician Zhang saw Zhou Yi coming and said:

"Professor Zhou is here, please come and say something to us."

In an instant, the entire lecture hall burst into applause.

Zhou Yi said:

"Hello everyone, I'm late, I know, what Academician Zhang said at the inauguration ceremony yesterday, everyone thought we were bragging,

Because the battery industry of our Great Xia Country is in the leading and parallel position in the world, it is a proper battery power.

Especially sodium-ion batteries, solid-state battery technology, cobalt-free batteries, blade batteries and CTP integration technology.

But here I still want to reiterate that we have this kind of technology in our hands, which can allow cars to travel thousands of kilometers, or even farther. "

When Zhou Yi said this, many people present couldn't believe it, because now the average car can only run 600-700 kilometers with a full tank of gas.

The battery car runs thousands of kilometers, how much technological innovation is this?
Zhou Yi was too lazy to explain, and said:
"We are short of people in chemistry, especially those who are engaged in batteries.
We have absolute theory to change and run the situation,
If you come to our Chemical Institute of Chongqing University, you have to sign a non-disclosure agreement, which is signed with the imperial court, not us. "

The people present have calmed down now, because it is impossible for Zhouyi to be aimless.

The imperial court supported Zhouyi in many things, presumably Zhouyi is not a person with a false name or only rhetoric.

Suddenly a man got up and asked:

"Professor Zhou, I would like to ask a question, which direction are you going to go now? Ternary lithium battery or lithium iron phosphate blade battery?
Or hydrogen fuel cells?"

Zhou Yi shook his head and said:
"Neither is the biggest goal, but hydrogen fuel cells may be researched first."

Another person stood up and asked:

"Professor Zhou, what is your biggest goal?"

Zhou Yi said lightly:
"Particle battery!"

"Particle battery?"

All the people present were puzzled, what is this thing?
Zhou Yi explained:
"It may not be possible to experiment until CEPC is established, but we can start with hydrogen fuel cells."

The people present frowned. If it weren't for the new compound that Zhou Yi made on the asphalt road before, they might have left long ago.

Or it won't come in the first place.

The so-called "particle battery" mentioned by Zhou Yi is also impossible to mention.

Zhou Yi's battery was not fully analyzed, only part of it was analyzed, and it was still incomplete. It is estimated that there will be an accurate theory after all the analysis is completed.

This kind of particle battery may really become mainstream in the future, and even be used in interstellar travel.

After Zhou Yi talked about the development prospects of hydrogen fuel cells for a while,
Some people can't wait to leave.

It's lonely, what kind of particle battery is really impractical.

It's more like physics than chemistry.

Zhou Yi smiled wryly, and had no choice but to say to Zhang Tiande:
"Academician Zhang, I leave it to you."

Zhang Tiande is also skeptical about particle batteries, even if Zhou Yi created the asphalt road before and innovated this direction,

But the so-called 'particle battery', both in theory and in practical application,
Basically it is difficult to achieve.

So Zhang Tiande said in a bad tone:
"It's impossible for me to use 'particle batteries' to fool people. It's almost the same to engage in hydrogen fuel cells. I have such a straightforward personality, so I'm not happy."

Zhou Yi: . .

'Particle battery' is indeed a fantasy, but Zhou Yi still said:

"Then start with hydrogen fuel cells, but you have to believe me, this kind of battery may really be possible."

After chatting for a while, Zhou Yi left.
