I ask you to design equipment, but you do science fiction for me?

The principles of time travel and space jump have some similarities, so in this research, Chen Anrong invited the experts who had previously built the space jump base to come and study it together.

Although there are some similarities, there are more differences.

The idea of ​​transferring a person from one time and space to another is an extremely difficult problem to overcome.

They haven't yet come up with any methods or research directions.

They hadn't even figured out the basic theory.

Although they have built a time machine, it is merely a figment of their imagination and has no actual functionality.

Its only function is to make the machine run, but it doesn't produce any effect.

Experts are still discussing the theoretical aspects of how to give a time machine such capabilities, with everyone using their imaginations and searching for solutions.

They had searched the entire library but found nothing particularly useful.

There are already few books about time machines.

The few rare books are mostly the ideas of scientific experts.

No experiments have been conducted. Some experts have tried, but all have failed.

After a month of research, there were no major breakthroughs.

Subsequent research led to disagreements among the experts.

Some experts believe that the research should focus on space, while others believe that the research should focus on time.

The argument escalated.

Chen Anrong was slightly troubled after learning about this.

Experts always argue about these things.

He meant that he could research whatever he wanted, but the experts disagreed.

Experts believe that most of our energy should be focused on one thing at a time, rather than being scattered.

They already lacked sufficient personnel; if research were conducted in a fragmented manner, neither aspect of the research would be able to make any progress.

The experts unanimously demanded that the research should be conducted in a unified direction.

This stumped Chen Anrong.

He pondered for a long time, but for a moment he didn't know what to do.

Although he was in charge of this matter, he was just like Wang Jianfeng in terms of research; he knew absolutely nothing about it.

In the end, he found Wang Jianfeng and asked him how to solve this problem.

In his view, Wang Jianfeng should frequently encounter such problems and should be able to handle them.

Wang Jianfeng was at a loss for what to do. He often encountered such problems, and in the past, he basically only had one solution.

Anyone can research whatever they want, but now the experts disagree.

Wang Jianfeng tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said helplessly, "I'll go with you to take a look."

Upon arriving at the research lab, the experts saw Wang Jianfeng and stood up to greet him.

Wang Jianfeng didn't immediately ask about the argument; instead, he inquired about everyone's daily lives.

After inquiring about everyone's living conditions, he changed the subject and brought up the argument.

"I heard you two were arguing about a research question."

"Couldn't we just stick to the old method of each doing their own research?"

Experts said it wouldn't work because this study was different from previous ones.

Wang Jianfeng said with a smile, "Then let's have a vote. Whichever side gets more votes, we'll decide which side to vote for."

"We've set a two-month timeframe. If the research doesn't make significant progress within two months, we'll switch to another research project. What do you think?"

After discussing it, everyone thought Wang Jianfeng's idea was good.

Giving both sides a chance is fair.

Finally, everyone began to vote.

Wang Jianfeng and Chen Anrong originally did not intend to vote, but the experts believed that they were also among them and should have the right to vote, so the two of them eventually voted as well.

Don't be fooled by the fact that there are two extra people; their tickets are extremely important.

Their two votes could have completely changed the outcome.

The number of votes for both sides remained roughly the same.

The final results of the vote are in.

The votes for research time were slightly higher.

The reason for this outcome is actually related to the experts' professional duties.

Time-based experts naturally think about studying time, while space-based experts naturally think about studying space.

Among this group of experts, there are more experts who have been studying for a long time.

Even if they are not experts in time, they are not experts in space either.

If we're talking about knowledge as a foundation, then listening to experts is more about having a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Therefore, people prefer to start from this aspect.

Because it's easier in this area, since they know more about it.

Once the plan was finalized, the experts had no objections.

Anyway, if there are no results after a period of research, adjustments can be made.

Wang Jianfeng and Chen Anrong were about to leave, but the experts surrounded them, very curious about what votes they had cast.

Seeing the experts' curious expressions, Wang Jianfeng smiled and said, "Is this important to you?"

The experts nodded seriously; it was certainly important to them.

Knowing what the two leaders were thinking, they would naturally do things accordingly.

Wang Jianfeng and Chen Anrong didn't intend to hide anything, but they felt that the experts might not believe what they said.

So they simply asked the experts to see what they had written on their tickets.

The experts found the two people's votes and opened the slips of paper.

The experts were a bit dumbfounded when they saw the voting directions written by the two people.

Wang Jianfeng and Chen Anrong were also a bit dumbfounded because their choices were different.

Wang Jianfeng chose space, while Chen Anrong chose time.

The experts immediately became curious and asked the two of them what they were thinking and why their choices were different.

Chen Anrong was the first to share her thoughts.

He believes that time machines are more related to time itself.

He had seen some science fiction movies before.

In movies, time machines are all built around the concept of time.

Without time, all research will become empty talk.

He personally believes that researching time is the right direction, and he strongly supports it.

Everyone found his reasoning logical and well-founded, and they couldn't help but look at him differently.

I never expected someone who doesn't understand this subject to be able to articulate such a profound truth.

People showed him more respect, and then they looked at Wang Jianfeng.

People have some understanding of his ideas, knowing that he was previously in charge of space jump technology.

Perhaps for this reason, he was more interested in studying space.

Of course, there is another reason.

That's because of Su Chen.

Despite various speculations, everyone still wanted to hear Wang Jianfeng's true thoughts. Wang Jianfeng grinned, found a place to sit down, and began a serious discussion with the experts.

"Although I am not a scientific expert, I do know a little about various types of scientific research and have seen your research."

"The reason I think it's better to study space is because I was previously in charge of space jump technology and I know a little about it."

"Of course, that's not the main point."

"I think space jump technology and time shuttle have some similarities. More importantly, Su Chen has already studied space and accumulated some experience."

“If we start from this point, it will be much more convenient for us.”

Wang Jianfeng then gave some other reasons.

After listening to his explanation, the experts nodded in agreement, agreeing that what Wang Jianfeng said made a lot of sense.

Many experts even felt that space technology should be studied first because of his words.

Unfortunately, a solution has already been proposed and implemented, so it would be inappropriate to make changes now.

Wang Jianfeng stood up, looked at everyone with a smile, and said in a serious tone, "No matter which one we are researching, I hope that everyone can unite. As long as everyone can unite, with your strength, you will definitely be able to research something."

"If you don't unite, no matter how capable you are, you will probably fail in the end."

"I hope everyone will work hard. If you have any questions, you can ask me, and I can ask others for help."

Everyone understands the meaning of the last sentence.

Wang Jianfeng can consult Su Chen.

Experts had actually explored this topic in previous studies.

May I ask Su Chen for help?

Most of the experts rejected the proposal, preferring to conduct their own research rather than bother Su Chen.

There are currently no problems that have stumped Su Chen. If they ask Su Chen for help, he will figure them out for them.

Su Chen deserves some credit for the time machine.

They weren't unwilling to give Su Chen the credit.

Rather, they hope to research something that will amaze the world through their own efforts.

However, in any research that Su Chen was involved in, he was basically the main figure.

Moreover, people are afraid of developing a habit.

They asked him one question, and they might ask him another one later.

This is not good for their own growth.

Therefore, in the end, everyone still wants to rely on their own efforts to complete the various tasks.

Wang Jianfeng and Chen Anrong agreed with everyone's ideas and supported their decision.

However, Wang Jianfeng also said so.

“This research is extremely difficult. If we really can’t figure out the key issues, we can always ask Su Chen for help. There’s no need to worry.”

The experts nodded, but they still didn't want to invite Su Chen.

As Wang Jianfeng walked back, Chen Anrong followed behind him.

The two talked about time travel.

Chen Anrong also asked Wang Jianfeng how likely the research was to succeed.

Wang Jianfeng thought about it seriously for a moment, then sighed softly.

He didn't think there was much hope.

Chen Anrong blinked and asked him why he lacked confidence in the experts.

Wang Jianfeng gave a bitter smile. It wasn't that he lacked confidence in these experts, but rather that his years of experience told him that their chances of success were extremely slim.

Research on time machines is extremely challenging.

People like Su Chen wouldn't easily touch them, let alone these kinds of people.

Even if Su Chen were to research a time machine, he might not be able to do it. So how did these experts manage to do it?

Does it rely on unity?

Although he spoke nicely, he knew that some things could not be accomplished simply by uniting.

This requires technology, this requires knowledge.

Their technology and knowledge are insufficient for them to complete this kind of scientific research.

Chen Anrong knew that Su Chen was exceptionally capable.

But when he heard Wang Jianfeng completely deny the experts' views, he was still a little unconvinced.

In his memory, Su Chen's various research projects were not completed independently, but relied on other experts.

Without other experts, Su Chen might not have achieved such great success, and there are many things he might not have been able to research.

He certainly wouldn't say that to Wang Jianfeng's face, but he still refuted it.

They believe the experts are also very capable and not necessarily as incompetent as Wang Jianfeng claims.

Wang Jianfeng smiled but didn't say anything.

He was unaware of Chen Anrong's thoughts.

He didn't want to argue with Chen Anrong, and even thought Chen Anrong's idea was very good.

It's a very good sign that the experts have confidence in them.

He also hopes that the experts can surpass them.

However, because he knew too much and understood too much, he was very clear that some things were difficult to change.

As they were about to part, Chen Anrong suddenly said, "I know Su Chen is very talented in research, but I think there are always people better than you, and there's always someone who can surpass him."

"Especially when a group of people are together, the energy they generate is enormous."

When Wang Jianfeng heard Chen Anrong's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

He nodded and said, "I believe that one day someone will surpass Su Chen, and one day someone will research something that will shock the world, something that Su Chen has not yet researched."

"However, for the time being, this situation is unlikely to occur."

After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

Watching his retreating figure, Chen Anrong narrowed her lips.

He felt that Wang Jianfeng didn't believe what he had just said at all, and he even heard a hint of sarcasm in Wang Jianfeng's words.

He had exceptional respect for Su Chen.

While he respected Su Chen, it didn't mean he considered Su Chen omnipotent or an existence that no one else could surpass.

Three months have passed in the blink of an eye. During these three months, the experts who study time travel have focused their research on time.

It can't be said that they made no progress at all. After three months of research, they made some progress, but not much.

There has been no groundbreaking progress.

At this point, the experts began to discuss whether they should change their research direction.

This time, without disturbing Wang Jianfeng and Chen Anrong, they proactively changed locations.

Their knowledge of space is far more extensive.

The research direction should also be broader than the time frame.

If time is a car, then space is an airplane.

There is a significant technological gap between the two.

They have made some progress in the field of space research, but not so much in the field of time research.

Therefore, everyone will be more satisfied with the research space, and the possibility of breakthroughs will be greater. (End of this chapter)
