Break out of the courtyard

Just as Zhang Heping was talking to Mr. Hua, Mr. Qian came to Zhang's house at dinner time.

"Just right, Mr. Hua is here too!" Mr. Qian smiled and walked to the sofa and sat down. He glanced at Mr. Hua, and finally set his sights on Zhang Heping, and said with a smile:

"Many scientists at home and abroad have said that the discussion time before the Peace Prize Ceremony is too short. They hope to add a two- or three-day seminar before or after the ceremony. What do you think, Advisor Zhang?"

After these words were spoken, Zhang Heping and Hua Lao could not help but frown.

Before the first Peace Prize award ceremony last year, a seminar lasting about three hours was held, led by Zhang Heping.

It was during these three hours that many people around the world took seriously for the first time Zhang Heping's knowledge and achievements in scientific research, establishing the academic status of the Peace Prize as more than a simple monetary reward.

Mr. Hua said solemnly: "The longer this kind of meeting lasts, the greater the risk!"

Zhang Heping's tone was also very deep. "The Peace Prize section on the World Internet Forum has classified discussion areas, so there is no need to add offline seminars!"

Mr. Hua was worried about the safety of Zhang Heping and other domestic scientists. Zhang Heping also took this into consideration, but he was more concerned about the influence of the World Internet Forum.

He needs the World Internet Forum to collect various papers from around the world to support his online learning.

A two- or three-day seminar of that kind would not be of much help to Zhang Heping. Instead, it would increase security risks and reduce the role of the World Internet Forum.

Qian asked, “What if only domestic scientists participate?”

Mr. Hua's eyes lit up and he thought to himself that this was a good idea.

But Zhang Heping shook his head and said, "I won't waste my time!"

"How can a seminar that promotes communication and broadens thinking be a waste of your time?" Mr. Qian thought Zhang Heping would refuse, but he didn't expect Zhang Heping to say that the seminar was a waste of time.

But on second thought, Zhang Heping had rejected Mr. Qian twice in a row. He was tactful the first time, but was afraid that Mr. Qian would continue to pester him, so he was more straightforward the second time.

"Let's get ready for dinner!" Zhang Heping changed the subject immediately, stood up and walked towards the restaurant.

Mr. Hua met Mr. Qian's gaze and shook his head slightly, indicating that there was no need to mention the matter again.

Not long after the Zhang family started their dinner, experts and professors from the Peace College came over to ask questions about the related projects.

As more and more people came, Zhang Heping simply called them to the lecture hall.

Mr. Qian has been wandering around the various laboratories in the underground base for so long that he has already fully understood all the research projects here.

While lamenting that these research projects involved too many areas, he was also wondering what was wrong with Zhang Heping's brain and how he could have such a wide range of knowledge.

As soon as Zhang Heping left, Mr. Qian and Mr. Hua naturally could not sit still anymore and followed him away.

In the next two days, Zhang Heping dealt with project issues within Shenzhen Peace College.

Normally, Zhang Heping would take time to reply to their email questions after returning home in the evening, but words could not directly express the meaning of both parties, so a lot of questions piled up to be answered on site, otherwise the progress of the project research would be delayed.

Some outside experts were allowed to enter the lecture hall to listen, but they were not allowed to speak or disrupt order.

Other scholars who were unable to attend the Q&A session went to the Peace Hotel to participate in various academic seminars that were temporarily organized there.

Because Shenzhen City also dispatched additional personnel to maintain order, security seemed much tighter.

~
Time quickly came to the afternoon of July 1989, 7, and there were still six hours before the second Peace Prize award ceremony.

Experienced scientists have already arrived at the entrance of Shenzhen Peace College in advance to line up, waiting for the security guards at the gate to verify their identities and conduct relevant inspections.

Those foreigners who were invited for the first time arrived a little later at the reminder of the hotel waiter, but they all entered the gymnasium venue of Shenzhen Peace College before 19:.

The layout of the venue was the same as last year, except that the projection screen was replaced with a more delicate and smooth white cloth, and the projector was replaced with a rectangular laser projection under the screen, making the rocket recovery footage being played much clearer.

As the guards entered the venue one by one, leading black wolfhounds and confirming the safety of the venue, the lights around gradually dimmed.

Then, more than a dozen screens were hung down, displaying the same images as the projection images behind the podium, except that the screens were smaller, making it easier for participants at the back to watch.

“We welcome all the experts, professors and scholars, and we are very grateful to all the leaders for their attention to this conference.”

As the female host of Shenzhen TV started speaking, the foreigners in the venue were all surprised!
Last year there was an Yingwen host translator, but this year it was directly replaced by translation headphones.

The key is that the headphones worn by those foreigners can not only translate Mandarin into Eagle language, but also into languages ​​such as Sudety, Italian, Japanese and so on.

Zhang Heping entered the venue with his family in the dark. After the host mentioned him, Zhang Heping walked to the front of the stage, took the microphone handed to him by the host, and started his new round of deception.

The Peace Prize awards research and innovation in aerospace, physical chemistry, biomedicine, and mechanical intelligence.

Zhang Heping’s opening speech was the aerospace technology that the laser projection just showed.

"The hydrogen-oxygen rotating detonation engine breaks through the bottleneck of chemical propulsion and improves the low-Earth orbit carrying capacity."

"If we want to start interstellar travel, existing ion engines will definitely not be able to meet the needs."

"Therefore, controlled nuclear fusion and controlled nuclear fusion propulsion systems have become our next stage of aerospace research projects."

"Speaking of interstellar travel, we have to face a new problem: lifespan!"

“Even if we develop an antimatter engine and travel through the vast dark universe, we still have to face the cruelty of time and the fragility of the human body.”

"There is a science fiction novel that mentions a method of cryogenically freezing the people on a spacecraft during an interstellar voyage and then waking up the crew after reaching their destination."

"To realize this science fiction scenario, we must first break through the technology of cryogenic freezing the human body to prevent ice crystals from piercing the fragile cells in the human body."

"The second thing is to find a way to wake up the frozen people. Then we need to make the main control system of this spacecraft have artificial intelligence to ensure that the spacecraft can fly to the destination accurately and safely without human pilots."

Speaking of life span, Zhang Heping also talked about his life extension project. As for the truth of it, it requires foreigners to verify it through relevant experiments.

Through the life extension project, Zhang Heping brought up traditional Chinese medicine again and subtly mentioned the role of qigong in traditional Chinese medicine treatment.

Zhang Heping said a lot of true and false things on the stage. When it was the participants' turn to ask questions, many of the hooks that Zhang Heping had thrown out before were asked out by these people.

Of course, Qigong, which Mr. Qian valued the most, was also questioned by a Taiwanese.

The guy from Magnesium who asked the question was none other than Phillips, one of the three Magnesium agents provided by Mr. Qian!
"Qigong is a colorless and invisible thing, and it is indeed difficult for the scientific community to recognize it." Zhang Heping did not resist the questioning of the magnesium man as usual, but patiently explained: "Before the neutrino was confirmed, did anyone believe in its existence?"

"By the same token, qigong will continue to be labeled as unscientific until it is proven to exist."

"So, in order to prove to you that qigong really exists and to prevent me from finding someone to deceive you, scientists from various countries can send one or two representatives to the stage, and I will demonstrate the magic of qigong to them in public."

"First of all, I want to make it clear that outsiders cannot see the qi in qigong. Only those who have personally experienced it on stage can feel the changes in their bodies caused by my qigong."

While Zhang Heping was still explaining, the participants around him had already taken action.

If there were no bodyguards and guards in charge of order in the venue, there would probably be crowding and trampling.

The first person to come on stage was Phillips, the man from Magnesium who had just raised the question.

Zhang Heping was not polite to him. He put his right index finger and middle finger together to form a sword, and gently tapped the Tanzhong point on the chest of this magnesium guy with the sword finger.

Then, the face of this magnesium guy suddenly turned pale, even paler than his skin color.

At the same time, people around him also saw that the magnesium guy subconsciously covered his chest with his right hand.

In response to the host's question, the magnesium agent named Phillips just shook his head and finally returned to his seat in silence.

Zhang Heping didn't use any ruthless force just now, he just used his Qi to block his Tanzhong acupoint.

For decades thereafter, this magnesium agent named Phillips would often feel chest tightness and palpitations if he did not receive effective treatment.

Because there was no other Magnesium agent coming on stage to experience the authenticity of qigong, Zhang Heping did not embarrass the others. He just let them feel the stiffness of the whole body when the acupoints were pressed, and the numbness and itching of the whole body after the acupoints were released.

After the Qigong demonstration, Zhang Heping answered some questions about the research direction of controlled nuclear fusion, as well as life extension and quantum computers.

The main point is to answer all questions, but not to tell the whole story or the correct research direction. It depends on how many foreigners present can raise money to conduct relevant research and then prove whether what Zhang Heping said is true or not.

As the time reached 11 o'clock, Zhang Heping handed the stage to the host, and he sat down in the audience, waiting to present the award to the first prize winner.

At the seminar just now, Zhang Heping added some real revelations to the first shot of the technological competition "life extension" released at the end of last year, and the second shot of the technological competition "controlled nuclear fusion" released this year.

If this fails to entice those countries to join in the research on life extension and controlled nuclear fusion, then we can only blame their technological backwardness.

In addition, during the discussion session of the first Peace Prize, Zhang Heping proposed quantum computers and optical computers.

During the discussion session of this year's Peace Prize, Zhang Heping mentioned artificial intelligence and the future development of smartphones, which was considered an advertisement for his own mobile phone.

After a while, the five people who won the first prize of the Peace Prize walked to the curtain, waiting for Zhang Heping and the guests to present the awards.

Among the five people who received the awards, only one was a lone ranger, and the other four came to receive the awards on behalf of their respective research teams.

The number of Peace Prize winners this year is obviously much higher than the previous one, with 18 second prizes.

There are even more third-prize winners, just one away from 1, 700 more than last year.

Unlike last year's event, attendees received not only a smartphone but also a box of experimental drugs that are said to slow down aging.

According to Zhang Heping, this drug has serious side effects and is not recommended for human experiments.

As for whether these participants will take the medicine themselves after taking it back, it depends on whether they are willing to accept side effects such as hair loss, yellowing of skin, and tooth loss!

The smart phone is the advertising machine thrown out by Zhang Heping.

Experimental drugs that delay aging are bait to increase credibility and force other countries to join the technological race to extend life span.

In the area of ​​controlled nuclear fusion, although Zhang Heping could use a 3D printer to make a batch of small models to give away, in order to keep the technology confidential, he did not do so to avoid adding unnecessary details.

"Dad!" Zhang Bei, who had left the venue with his family in advance, waited for his father Zhang Heping to come out and asked impatiently, "Can you really create artificial intelligence?"

"I don't have time to deal with that for now." Zhang Heping replied casually, then told his family to go home quickly.

After holding Zhang Heping's hand, the first wife Tang Xin also asked the question in her heart, "Husband, can that anti-aging drug really delay aging?"

Zhang Heping understood what his first wife meant and said bluntly, "It has some effects, but the side effects are severe. I don't recommend your parents to take it for the time being."

The young wife Chen Shuting comforted her: "Don't worry, Sister Xin, with our husband's ability, we can definitely develop an anti-aging drug with less side effects."

"Dad, did you choose so many biochemical research project winners just to sell medicine?" Zhang Nan walked behind Zhang Heping and muttered, "I always feel like there's something wrong with this awards ceremony, but I just can't put my finger on it."

Zhang Heping smiled but said nothing and did not answer his second daughter's question.

"Uncle, can I go to your aerospace company for an internship for a while? And then go back after school starts." The person who said this was my nephew Chang Le, who was studying at Capital University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and was going to be a senior in the second half of his year.

Zhang Heping turned his head and looked behind him, and saw his cousin who was accompanying Old Zhang at the end of the class, "Xiaopeng, do you want to go with Changle?"

Zhou Xiaopeng is studying communications and will be in his senior year in the second half of his year. He went to Peace Aerospace Corporation to learn about communications satellites, which would help him write his graduation thesis.

"Thank you, cousin. I'll follow your arrangements!" Zhou Xiaopeng said this in a very obedient manner.

Zhang Heping was quite satisfied with this answer, so he looked at his nephew Chang Le and said, "I will arrange a car to take you two there tomorrow morning. You will eat and stay there before school opens. If you have any questions, just ask the experts there. Don't just stand there and watch dumbly."

The two 21-year-old young men quickly responded, and at the same time felt some anticipation and anxiety about the upcoming unknown internship.

Nieces Chang Wen and Zhang Ting are traveling with Zhang Nan and Zhang Nian, learning about Hong Kong's business as well as various things in Hong Kong.

As for his nephews Zhang Yi and Chang Xing, they have recently become more interested in the research on Zhang Long and Zhang Hu. Even Zhang Bei was attracted to it after learning about the situation.

My cousin's daughter Zhou Xiaochun went to CCTV for an internship, and my nephew Chang Qing is taking the college entrance examination today, so there is no need to worry about them.

Zhang Heping just left, while people at the venue were still leaving in an orderly manner.

Just like after the first Peace Prize award ceremony last year, those scientists who got their first smartphones started taking pictures with their phones, trying to capture the internal layout of the Peace Institute.

The bodyguards and guards around did not stop it, which was completely different from the strictness of the inspection at the gate.

However, once a foreigner tries to leave temporarily under the pretext of going to the toilet, he will be severely stopped by the bodyguards and guards. In fact, the rhythm is relaxed on the outside but strong on the inside. (End of this chapter)
