When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

The importance of thorium-based molten salt reactors is evident simply from their being listed alongside controlled nuclear fusion.

Wu Qingsong wasn't too surprised that Wang Donglai knew about this technology.

Because no one knows exactly how talented Wang Donglai is or how strong his scientific research talent is.

However, judging from Wang Donglai's achievements so far, it is clear that as long as Wang Donglai has confidence, he will most likely not encounter any problems.

Thinking of this, Wu Qingsong could hardly contain his excitement.

Wang Donglai noticed Wu Qingsong's performance.

"Leader, with a large and cheap supply of energy, plus the support of artificial intelligence technology, I think you can roughly guess how fast society will develop."

Hearing what Wang Donglai said, Wu Qingsong gradually calmed down.

“Academician Wang, from what you’ve said, it seems you have a way to solve the problems in the thorium-based molten salt reactor technology roadmap. This technology is extremely important. Since Academician Wang has a solution, you should go and solve these two problems.”

Wang Donglai wasn't particularly surprised by Wu Qingsong's comment.

The reason for having such thoughts is not entirely about making achievements and establishing a career, but rather stems from a simple patriotic sentiment.

The breakthrough in thorium-based molten salt reactor technology has extremely important practical and political significance for both the country and its people.

Leading the development of human scientific and technological civilization, this is the true core of technology.

"Boss, I didn't expect you to have so much confidence in me."

Wang Donglai said with a smile.

Wu Qingsong's expression immediately turned serious, and he said to Wang Dong, "Academician Wang, I think anyone who isn't a fool can see your research capabilities."

"If someone else said this, I definitely wouldn't believe it, but if Academician Wang says it, then I will definitely believe it."

"Not only me, but I believe that if this news gets out, the leaders above and experts in this field will also believe it."

"Domestically, and even internationally, I think there are very few people who would question Academician Wang's abilities."

Wu Qingsong wasn't just flattering him; he was speaking from the heart.

Everyone has different opinions about Wang Donglai, but there is one point that everyone should agree on.

That is, Wang Donglai's scientific research talent is unparalleled in the world.

The fact that he can prove so many mathematical problems is enough to prove that Wang Donglai's intelligence is above that of ordinary people and geniuses.

A genius like him, whatever achievements he makes, will seem like a given.

That's why Wu Qingsong said that and thought that way.

Wang Donglai could understand this as well.

In his previous life, as an ordinary person, he had already experienced the powerlessness of witnessing geniuses.

Now, as a top genius, this intellectual superiority and composure is a completely new experience for him.

"I didn't expect my boss to think so highly of me."

"I understand what the leader is thinking."

"I am very clear about the importance of thorium-based molten salt reactor technology."

"However, things have different priorities and urgency, and these things are always different."

"In my opinion, a long-term plan for the technology roadmap is more important."

"For example, we should take advantage of our current technological accumulation to complete technological upgrades as soon as possible, so as to provide more and stronger economic momentum. This is what I think is more important."

A flash of inspiration struck Wu Qingsong, and he immediately said, "Is President Wang holding this technology summit, showcasing these technologies, developing the semiconductor industry, and researching the Xuanwu battery for this very reason?"

Wang Donglai was not surprised that Wu Qingsong was so perceptive as to be able to guess these things.

"The leader is right!"

"The development of the semiconductor industry is related to the development of artificial intelligence technology."

"We need chips, we need more advanced GPUs and CPUs, we need to make breakthroughs in the entire semiconductor industry chain and truly master core advanced processes."

"In fact, the upper limit of silicon-based chip development was fixed as soon as it appeared."

"Currently, we can certainly achieve 5nm and 3nm, but what about going further down?"

"Can existing technology support a breakthrough at this size? I think it's hard to say!"

"A new technological approach is needed; that's inevitable."

"However, we don't need to worry about this for quite some time."

"Even if we really venture into outer space, our current silicon-based chips will be sufficient."

"On the other hand, we can use artificial intelligence technology to liberate and develop productivity, and turn human resources into human capital."

"To be blunt, many people think that our large population will burden resources and hinder development, etc."

"However, in my opinion, talent is the most important thing."

"Whether it's leaving Earth or staying on Earth."

"Where there is population, there will be culture, and then there will be economy, politics, science and technology, etc."

"In scientific terms, that means that enough people can provide countless valuable genes, representing infinite possibilities."

"With a population of 1.4 billion, we can produce 140,000 such talents, one in ten thousand."

"And those small countries with few people only have a few hundred or a few thousand people."

"Such a numerical gap will result in a huge difference in actual development."

Wang Donglai paused for a moment, and his tone became low.

"Sir, if one day our brain-computer interface technology reaches a certain level, it will be possible to implant an ultra-miniature terminal inside the human body."

"Or rather, we develop biochips and use this technology to implant them into the human body."

"Does that mean we can turn a lot of knowledge into something external and put it directly into us?"

"In this way, we don't need to learn anything special. We can just load whatever knowledge or ability we want directly."

"The same is true for the development of medicine, with more and more large volumes being produced, and the development of basic science."

"Later learners must learn all the knowledge of their predecessors before they can have the opportunity to innovate."

"However, this learning process may take more than ten years, or even decades, or even a lifetime."

"What if this learning process could be shortened? Everyone could master the most advanced knowledge in a very short time. Then, if just one person makes a breakthrough, it can drive everyone else to make a breakthrough as well."

"In this way, every additional person means one more possibility!"

Wu Qingsong was already dumbfounded.

The scene described by Wang Donglai was beyond his imagination.

It's not that this fantasy scene is bizarre.

Rather, these words came from Wang Donglai's mouth.

If it were anyone else, Wu Qingsong would have just dismissed it as wishful thinking and a pipe dream.

It was precisely because Wang Donglai said that Wu Qingsong became somewhat suspicious.

Could it be that Wang Donglai has made some technological breakthrough, or is he actually conducting research in this area?

With that in mind, Wu Qingsong asked the question.

"Academician Wang, is the scenario you described your vision for the future, or is it a research project that is already underway?"

Wang Donglai chuckled softly, but instead of answering directly, he asked in return, "Boss, is this very important?"

"What if what I'm saying could actually come true?" "What if everything I'm saying is just my own speculation?"

"A population of 1.4 billion is not a cold, hard number, but a collection of living, breathing people."

"Everyone should have the opportunity to pursue their ideals."

"But in reality, they didn't."

"This is not only a shackle on real material life, but also a kind of rigid thinking."

"Why do we develop technology, push energy supply to its limits, and develop productivity to its limits?"

"It's so that everyone can live a good life!"

"Technology should be for good and should bring happiness to people."

"If technological development brings misfortune to people, it proves that we have gone down the wrong path and need to be corrected."

Neither Wang Donglai nor Wu Qingsong wore a smile.

However, the two are still different. Wang Donglai's expression revealed a hint of seriousness, while Wu Qingsong's expression was extremely complicated.

He naturally understood the implication behind Wang Donglai's words.

With a gentle exhale, Wu Qingsong regained his composure and changed the subject.

"Academician Wang, we've gone off on a tangent. Let's put some topics aside for now."

"Now that we've come this far, Academician Wang, if you have any thoughts, please feel free to speak them directly."

"We will definitely provide the support that is due!"

Wu Qingsong no longer wanted to think about it.

After all, his position in this matter meant that there were some things he couldn't say too much about.

A smile returned to Wang Donglai's face as he said to Wu Qingsong, "Boss, when I was talking about these ideas just now, I wasn't just making things up out of thin air."

"It is the development of technology that could potentially lead to this direction."

"He who does not plan for the long term is not fit to plan for the short term; he who does not plan for the whole is not fit to plan for a part!"

"As a scientist, I believe I have some say in the development of future technologies."

"What we need to do is prepare for these technologies before they emerge."

"Brain-computer interfaces, thorium-based molten salt reactor technology, DNA biological storage technology, and other technologies are not just hype; they are very likely to enter our lives."

"A brand new era is coming."

"The fourth technological revolution is a revolutionary change for all mankind."

"The degree of change far exceeds that of the previous three times."

"It could even be considered a radical theory: after the completion of the fourth technological revolution, we humans may become a new species, and our lives will be completely changed."

"I am extremely confident about this, but I don't know if the leadership shares that confidence?"

Wu Qingsong's eyes lit up.

Actually, he could sense it too.

The technologies that Wang Donglai promoted do indeed hold immense development potential.

However, as for the extent of the impact, he is not a professional technician and has not seen these technologies actually implemented for several years, so he has no general and specific judgment or analysis.

However, he still trusted Wang Donglai's judgment.

After all, the fact that Wang Donglai was able to develop a super enterprise like Galaxy Technology is enough proof of that.

"If Academician Wang says so, I am definitely confident."

"Perhaps only Academician Wang in the world has such a clear judgment and such full confidence."

Wu Qingsong spoke with firmness and sincerity.

Wang Donglai chuckled softly.

What he said today is only part of the story.

Behind these technologies lie even more advanced technological ideas.

For example, the virtual world.

For example, a spaceship!

Even if he were to reveal these techniques based on his reputation, the number of people who would question them would be substantial.

However, once he breaks through some technical hurdles and produces some results, his credibility will skyrocket.

This may seem unimportant, but it is actually very important to Wang Donglai.

Because he can use these technologies as bait to attract more investment.

He has already decided to lift restrictions in these areas of technological research and development.

Anyone willing to invest and willing to pay the price should be allowed to join.

Consider this money as the ticket price for these businesses and individuals to get on the bus.

Naturally, this money would then be distributed by Wang Donglai in exchange for the generous welfare benefits offered by Galaxy Technology.

They obtain large sums of money from capital giants, and then distribute the money through Galaxy Technology's massive scale, completing a cycle.

The biggest challenge in this process is how to distribute the money reasonably and effectively, which is a huge problem for ordinary companies or organizations.

However, with Nuwa's existence, things become very simple.

The movement of funds can be monitored clearly.

Making money is hard, but spending money is very easy.

Raise wages and raise salaries for lower-level employees.

Reduce their working hours, then hire more staff.

At the very least, they can enter new business areas and use massive amounts of capital to drive out bad money with good money.

With more money in circulation, economic liquidity improves.

Of course, this is just a very simple logical chain and cannot fully explain the laws governing economic operation.

However, Wang Donglai himself has extremely high attainments in economics.

Given Wa's abilities and terrifying execution capabilities, she could absolutely do this.

The reason they were unwilling to do this in the past was because Wang Donglai had not yet accumulated enough experience.

Doing this now clearly indicates that the initial accumulation of knowledge and experience has been achieved.

Wang Donglai naturally wouldn't reveal this idea at this stage.

Because of this approach, no matter how you look at it, there's something you can't avoid.

That is, Galaxy Technology essentially redistributed wealth.

This is actually a bit presumptuous.

When those above notice, there will inevitably be a swift and decisive response.

It's a matter of crushing Galaxy Technology or crushing Wang Donglai, just like Jack Ma on the Bund back then.

At that time, it will depend on fate.

Wang Donglai had that confidence! (End of Chapter)
