Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 564 He Turned on the Modifier
"You know about the special medicine." Li Yan put down his chopsticks.

"know."

"The authorities have been a bit lax during this period, as you know. Hit me."

"Uh-huh."

"Now they realize that I am really awesome, so they are looking for cooperation and naturally they will stop criticizing me and stop letting me go."

"Ok?"

"Am I not awesome?"

“Very cool.”

"That's it."

Wei Yunzhi chose to remain silent, remained motionless for three seconds, looked away, and picked up the bowl to pick up some food.

"Eat quickly, Yan, or it will be cold."

Oh my god, this is really unbearable.

"I think some things are better left unsaid." Li Yan picked up the bowl and picked up some vegetables.

"Maybe I'm not what you think I am."

"Ok?"

"I guess you were indeed targeted, so the authorities paid attention to you. You haven't done anything special during this period, nor have you achieved any new and amazing results. The authorities are not willful and will not change their perception of you without reason. In fact, even after the miracle drug incident, they still maintained their protection for me and my family, not to mention you."

Li Yan looked at Wei Yunzhi in surprise.

"The most likely reason why they suddenly pay attention and strengthen their defenses is an attack from abroad. Just like you told me before, who is more important, you or not? Foreign countries think that China is more important than you, so China must protect you."

Li Yan still couldn't get the braised pork into her mouth.

"Yan," Wei Yunzhi stared into his eyes, "The owner of the convenience store has changed. I went there specially to buy some snacks, and that owner didn't look like a store owner at all."

"..."

"Is the dream I had that night true?"

The powerful and well-reasoned analysis, combined with the inexplicable metaphysical judgment, left Li Yan speechless for a moment.

"Of course, that's not what I want to say..." It's remarkable that Wei Yunzhi can still eat normally at this time. "I want to say that even if the dream that night was true, I won't have any... emotions that will bother you."

"meaning is?"

"For example, when I heard that you were assassinated, I panicked and kept saying something like, 'How about you quit everything and live a peaceful life?' I actually can't understand you. I believe that no one in this world can understand you, because everyone is at a different level from you. This is also the reason why I am always uneasy about being in this position today."

“……”Li Yan chewed the braised pork slowly.

"If you really encounter an assassination attempt, I won't be too surprised, nor will I be unable to accept it. I would rather you tell me, and then I can work with you to find a way to deal with it - although my advice may not be useful. But I can also pay more attention myself, so that you can spend less energy taking care of my safety."

"In short... I hope you can trust me. Although I may not understand, I can carry your world."

Li Yan nodded and swallowed the braised pork:
"I was indeed attacked that night by four men disguised as thugs."

Wei Yunzhi's eyes widened uncontrollably: "...then..."

“But I got rid of all four of them.”

"..."

"After investigation, it was clear that all this was directed and funded by Lighthouse."

"..."

"You should be able to connect the dots."

"My dream turned out to be true!" Wei Yunzhi covered her mouth, "This is the most incredible thing."

Yes, are you surprised by this?

Are you surprised by this?

But it is indeed something surprising...

"Practice makes perfect." Li Yan said with a smile, "I believe it now. You are indeed not what I worried you would be."

Wei Yunzhi then seriously inquired about the details of the assassination. Although he tried his best to control his emotions, he was still frightened when he heard it.

"Kill them!" the girl punched angrily.

"Yes."

"...I was wondering, does that mean you can't act alone later?"

"If the current security level was maintained, the security personnel would not have left that night and would have been stationed directly at the door of my house. Someone would even follow me downstairs and walk to our door to help me check the situation at the door before letting me in... Our door has been equipped with surveillance cameras and someone is watching it 24 hours a day..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking." Wei Yunzhi felt his scalp tingling, "There shouldn't be any in the house...right?"

"Have."

The girl suddenly made a very strange sound, like a deflated ball.

“It’s not surveillance.”

The deflated ball recovered instantly, and then saw Li Yan's smirk.

"Oh! You're teasing me!"

"A lot of professional testing equipment has been installed. In fact, even the glass has been replaced with special ones." Li Yan spread his hands.

"What...when?"

"During the day when we're not home."

“…I just don’t feel comfortable anymore.”

"It's okay. They have reported the details to me and I have inspected them."

"What...when?"

"During the day, when you're not home."

"..."

In fact, it took Wei Yunzhi a lot of effort to accept these things.

A week seemed to pass normally, but Li Yan couldn't help but go up to Wei Yunzhi, who kept looking back, and took her back home.

"If you want to express your concerns and care, just say it." Li Yan said, "In fact, even if you want to advise me to pay more attention to this or that, I will accept it."

The girl looked as if her secrets had been exposed.

"You are very smart, Yunzhi, smarter than I thought." Li Yan said, "So maybe you are the most suitable person in the world to accept my secret."

Wei Yunzhi nodded.

She actually didn't understand what Li Yan really meant.

"It's okay to care about me. It's even more okay to care about me. As long as you don't lose sleep over these things or even force me to do something, then it's fine."

To be frank, she didn't have anything else to emphasize...

"It's just that I feel the need to be with you and comfort you."

Li Yan smiled, "It's been pretty peaceful lately." "But you're tired... What are you doing lately, Yan?"

"I'll tell you when I have some results, enough to support my plan."

"Okay, then, I'm going to class?"

"Take today's leave."

"Eh?"

Li Yan picked up Wei Yunzhi and walked into the room amid the girl's exclamations.

"Stay with me, you said."

Then, life seemed to become normal again.

The construction of Future City is progressing gradually, and it has now become an important scientific research and production base in Linjiang Province. Many universities have set up research institutes or graduate school branches next to Future City, which has raised the educational status of Xinbei and even Linjiang to a higher level.

Although the Future City itself has not been fully completed, it has already become a testing ground for many new technologies.

The best testing point for driverless cars, the home of super wind tunnels, the world's only example of modular construction, a full pipeline transportation system, a full drone logistics system...

If this place was not truly "gold everywhere", many research projects had confidentiality requirements, and many experiments had relatively harsh environmental requirements, it would probably have become a world-famous tourist destination long ago.

No matter how you shoot it, it looks like the future world, another dimension.

Working and studying in the Future City is the dream of many outstanding students.

However, all the research projects located in the Future City are at the forefront of the times, and genius is just the threshold for visiting.

For most of the outstanding students who have this dream, it would be a blessing if they could finally work in the Future Industrial Park, which is separated from the Future City by a river.

It can be said that the concentration of top talents gathered in such a small area of ​​Dasha Island was even higher than that of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.

Dongshi District in New Taipei City, a place that was once strategically dubbed a "development zone," has now become a popular place that big leaders are vying to visit, thanks to Li Yan's Future City.

Ren Jiangfeng, who is still serving as the mayor of New Taipei City, was so overwhelmed by the number of leaders he received that his emotions were very complicated.

Even the achievements brought to Xinbei and Linjiang are enough to make this group of leaders brag about it.

Look at the two bosses in Linjiang. Old Huang is going to take the next step, Old Song is also preparing to take up a new position in Jiangnan, and Old Li in Xinbei is preparing to take over Old Huang's position. No matter what Ren Jiangfeng says, he should move up, right?

Result: "You have a good relationship with Li Yan, and there are some important projects to be carried out in New Taipei City. You should do them first, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."

This... Ren Jiangfeng could only eat the cake.

However, this made him very curious about Li Yan's research. Although he didn't quite understand what those projects were about, he knew the value of the people involved in the projects.

The more this happened, the more curious he became about what role Li Yan played in this.

As time went on, his curiosity grew stronger and stronger - what kind of performance could make a research team composed of so many top talents repeatedly exclaim that "Li Yan used a modifier"?

The most shocking time was when Ren Jiangfeng led a leader on a survey and added a person in charge of a research center. As a result, he posted a status on WeChat, which was a not very clear and even a bit obscured photo of a meeting. Only the nameplate of "Li Yan" could be seen, but not the person.

The caption reads: "Creator Li Yan cleanses our souls once again."

Ren Jiangfeng was dumbfounded. This guy was quite arrogant and thought that there was "no need to give excessive reception" to leaders who came to conduct research. Yet he turned around and openly reported such a situation?
Soon, in July 2017, Ren Jiangfeng got a very rare research opportunity and went to the Materials Research and Development Center.

After the symposium, Ren Jiangfeng keenly noticed that Li Yan had left behind a group of key R&D personnel, so he took the initiative to stay at the venue under the pretext of "learning".

Li Yan did not refuse. Instead, he was surprised that Ren Jiangfeng was so eager to learn and very much welcomed Mayor Ren to join.

Ren Jiangfeng was caught off guard as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I have read everyone's reports. The current research direction is still not clear enough. How to delocalize localized electrons, or how to achieve metallization of sigma electrons, that is, to keep localized electrons near the Fermi surface as much as possible, rather than buried deep in the inner layer of atoms, is the core of our research on superconducting materials."

Ren Jiangfeng almost raised his hand and asked, "Teacher, what are you talking about?"

The annoying thing is that everyone nodded thoughtfully in a circle.

"I saw that Engineer Zhu mentioned that the most important thing to achieve macroscopic quantum effects is localization. This statement is correct, but localization is not a panacea. The inner electrons of atoms are all localized, but it does not mean that they can contribute to superconducting currents. It is good for everyone to think divergently, but in the final analysis, the optimal solution is still doping."

Everyone nodded again.

"Take conductivity as an example. It is mainly determined by carrier concentration and mobility. Based on our experience in studying single-element silicon, doping is one of the means to increase carrier concentration, but as long as doping is done, it will inevitably lead to an increase in impurities and defects, resulting in a decrease in mobility. You can't have your cake and eat it too. But in silicon doping, the structure and energy level of N-type doped phosphorus and silicon are almost perfectly matched, and the mobility will not be affected...

"In other words, finding dopants whose energy levels are close to the Fermi surface of the parent material is our most practical work direction at present."

At this point, someone finally raised his hand to speak.

Shit, does it really depend on raising your hands?
Do you really regard Li Yan as your teacher?

"Mr. Li, our group has always insisted on doping, but we did encounter difficulties in exhaustive thinking."

"The exhaustive approach is wrong. Dopants are far more than just elements. For example, the A position of perovskite ABX3 has changed from the original atom to a more complex methylamine group. The complexity has suddenly increased, and many ideas that were not thought of before have emerged. At this time, relying solely on exhaustive parameter scanning and research ideas that pile up manpower and material resources is obviously not enough in the face of an infinite number of compound groups. You can't try to explore the complex material world with your very limited knowledge."

"That……"

“We need to understand it from a more core logic.”

Ren Jiangfeng understood, but others didn't.

“We are trying to explore breakthroughs directly from the logic of material composition.”

"Well, well, well, how should we approach this? As you said, the material world is so complex, and our cognition is limited..."

For some reason, Ren Jiangfeng suddenly felt familiar.

He had heard from the group of people who worked with Li Yan on systems and computers that Li Yan had actually said something like "resonating with the computer."

Today's speech has the same purpose.

But no one thought he was talking nonsense. Instead, everyone tried very hard to understand him.

After all, when Li Yan said that he wanted to resonate with the computer, he really could...

Ren Jiangfeng was stunned. So, could it be that Li Yan could really understand the "logic of material composition"?
Although he doesn't understand, doesn't this sound a little scary?

Li Yan clicked a button on the desktop, and suddenly a bunch of reaction formulas appeared on the big screen. "These are the new doping routes I found for you. Everyone should go and do the experiment first. Be sure to follow the experimental manual attached below. I think you will have a new understanding of what I said."

Wow, so it turns out that the reference answer is given directly?
No, can this thing be given just by saying it? No wonder some people say that he has opened a modifier, and he can make the material have whatever properties he wants, right?

"In addition," Li Yan clicked on another picture, "this thing is a brand new material made by another research group according to my requirements. It is currently named LY-77. It is the experimental subject of the third and fourth doping routes mentioned above. I believe that according to the current thinking, it will definitely solve the problem of room-temperature superconductivity before the 99th generation of iteration."

The audience burst into extremely warm applause.

Ren Jiangfeng just followed suit and applauded in a daze.

Then they watched Li Yan, who had just shown off so much, leave the venue with everyone's brilliant farewell.

He quickly chased after her, "Li Yan, Li Yan, what you just said about solving the problem of room-temperature superconductivity... is it true?"

Li Yan glanced at her watch and simply nodded to Ren Jiangfeng, "I never say anything I'm not sure of."

"That's big news. How long will it take to iterate to the 99th generation?"

“I don’t know about this, but it took three months to iterate to 77.”

"This is incredible! You didn't even tell me about this huge advancement. Are you in such a hurry to go back? Let me treat you to a meal!"

"No, Mayor Ren," Li Yan's car door had already been opened. "The new superconducting material is just the foundation for the next step. It's not worth getting so excited about. As for now, I have to go pick up my wife."

"Old, wife?"

"I'm going to her graduation ceremony."
