The top student must be diligent.

Chapter 272 How to determine whether Professor Xiao is a human?

After a moment of shock, the Secretary of State laughed dryly at the president's expression, which did not seem to be a joke, and said, "Mr. President, don't forget that you are the only president in recent decades who has not started a war during your term. You must keep this record."

The president curled his lips and snorted, "They don't give me the Peace Prize, why should I keep this record?"

The Secretary of State immediately began to wonder whether he should use this opportunity to mediate with those who controlled the awarding of the Nobel Prize and whether he should give the Peace Prize to their President.
But it's already the end of September, and the Nobel Prize winners will be announced in October, which means they only have about ten days left to make a decision.

Thinking of this, the Secretary of State decided to go and discuss with those people after the meeting.

I don't think those people would refuse on the grounds of preventing the president from going to war.

Starting a war is absolutely not an option.

Their lives are so comfortable now that even when they retire, there are many revolving doors waiting for them, so they can enjoy their later years in peace and stability.

Do we still have to take risks, hide in an air-raid shelter all day and all night, and live that kind of miserable life?
No one present would agree to this, and perhaps only their president would do such a thing in order to continue to be his president and become another Roosevelt.

Then he said, "Okay, Mr. President, going to war is a serious matter and cannot be decided lightly. Congress will most likely not pass it. We should first think about how to deal with this matter in the future."

"Just take care of this matter."

The president waved his hands, paced back and forth, then sat back in his seat, patted the table, and said, "Well, nuclear fusion can't be done, so can't our researchers make this engine?"

"And General Motors? Pratt & Whitney? Aren't they known as the best engine manufacturer on the planet? Why can't they come up with something like this?"

"This technology is actually not that easy to study," the Secretary of State said helplessly.

The president snorted coldly: "It is indeed difficult to study. Moreover, how can it be more convenient to study this than to study a bag of screws worth $90,000? Is it?"

The Secretary of State fell silent.

This kind of question is not easy to answer.

After all, the people who make weapons actually have weapons in their hands.

The president said, "Technology! Technology! We need to develop technology! Do you understand? I am going to promote a policy next. We must vigorously promote our technological construction. We need to cultivate more talents. I think China's education policy is very good. Do you know that they have nearly 7000 million engineers, which is almost equivalent to a quarter of our population? Once a war breaks out, even if only half of their engineers are put into war preparations, how much of a threat will it bring to us?"

"So we should not start a war," the Secretary of State continued to persuade.

The president glared at him, then waved his hand and said, "Okay, it's settled. This policy must be implemented. I must train more talents for our country! Only with more talents can we achieve MAGA!"

Afterwards, the United States officially issued a condemnation, believing that this new engine was intended to set off an arms race in the 21st century.

But other countries did not make any comments.

Because now they have almost accepted their fate, they should not get involved in such things.

The successful test launch of the 1.2-kilometer intercontinental missile a few years ago and the nuclear fusion achieved this year have basically eliminated all their temper.

On the contrary, they were quite shocked by the news revealed by the United States.

How could the Chinese develop such an awesome engine?
Thrust-to-weight ratio of 13.8, 23 tons of thrust?

Are you really not kidding?
Hasn't their engine technology always been backward? How come they have not only caught up with it now, but have even surpassed it by so much?

This is cheating, you don't even need to act, right?

All of a sudden, many foreign netizens started discussing it.

[Is this fake news? I remember that China's engine technology was very poor, right? ]

[Because they have Xiao Yi! ]

【Oh my god, this is so scary! 】

[Now I just want to know if we can develop such an engine. Our B2 bomber can't even achieve supersonic speed! ]

[Don't worry, this bomber can't hit us anyway. Even if they really want to, they can just launch an intercontinental missile from within the country. What's more, if they want to bomb, they will bomb the big cities. I don't have to worry about these things as I live in the countryside.]

Foreign netizens viewed this matter as a mere spectator, but Chinese netizens were completely different.

Previously, the news was only circulated within the domestic aviation circle, but now that the Americans have taken the initiative to reveal it, naturally more people know about it.

Suddenly, domestic netizens became excited.

[Oh my god, is this true? Is our engine so awesome?]

[13.8 thrust-to-weight ratio, am I really not dreaming? ]

[13.8 thrust-to-weight ratio, 23 tons of thrust, I'm so awesome, is it that scary? ]

[And it's an engine prepared for the H-20. So, Master Liu is going to retire soon? Master 20 is going to be in service? ]

[Xiao Shen participated in the research and development, so isn't that basically a sure thing? ]

【Invincible! 】

[Oh my god, I never thought that one day I would be able to witness such news. Our engines can actually be so advanced! ]

[By the way, this news was spread by the Americans, not by us. Does it mean that there are 50 people in the team? ]

【Maybe it’s possible? 】

[Don't think too much about it. The spokesperson of the Ministry of National Defense has already admitted this matter. Moreover, the specific data released by the Ministry of National Defense shows that the thrust is at least 23.5 tons, and the thrust-to-weight ratio is likely to reach 14:1, which is even more amazing than the leaked information now! ]

[Ah? 14:1? Why is this getting more and more exaggerated? ]

[Honestly, compared to nuclear fusion, I think it’s just an engine technology, so it’s not too exaggerated.]

[What the above person said makes sense. After all, the engine is basically a technology that has been around for a long time. Compared with controlled nuclear fusion, the level is still far behind. After all, even if we have more engines, it is impossible for our civilization level to reach level 1.0, but nuclear fusion can do it. Moreover, these two technologies, after all, are just a matter of materials. As for the requirements for materials, I really can't think of any other technology that has higher requirements for materials than nuclear fusion. ]

[Now I just want to know when we can see the official first flight of the H-20. I have been looking forward to it for a long time. ]

[+1, I just want to know about this matter now, Erling, isn't it time for you to show up? ]

[By the way, if the WS-20S is so awesome, can we also upgrade the engine of the J-? ]

[What you said makes sense. I think it is completely fine. I hope it can be improved by then.]

[I am also waiting for the news, and I hope we will not be disappointed.] Time passed quietly, and in the next few days, news about China's new engine was constantly discussed.

Both the Ministry of National Defense and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have been extremely busy these days. Basically, all foreign reporters are asking about this matter.

Of course, since the relevant information was deliberately released in China, we have naturally been prepared to deal with these problems.

Just like that, in a completely relaxed attitude, China also ushered in the National Day, the 78th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and the people of the whole country once again welcomed the holiday, but probably because it was not a full year, there was no celebration, but netizens still felt that this year was a very memorable year, because in this year, they not only achieved nuclear fusion, but also built the engine. In addition, including the GDP, it has also reached a new peak.

Especially in several areas around Fei City where nuclear fusion has been built, thanks to extremely low energy prices, the GDP growth has been very gratifying in just a few months, with year-on-year growth of at least 15%. This is also because the initial productivity has not kept up with the current energy supply speed. As more factories increase, GDP will inevitably usher in another huge growth.

In this case, unless Americans change the way they calculate GDP and the weight ratio, they may be officially surpassed by China in 2029.

This news once again amazed everyone. Although China's purchasing power is about 1.5 to 2 times that of the United States, most people still look at the GDP data because the GDP data is more well-known. Once China's GDP exceeds that of the United States, it will be unimaginable. It will definitely be another node in world history.

As a result, some international media also began to use another title.

[The Chinese era is coming! 】

Time passed quietly, and nothing happened in the following period.

The only major international event is probably the announcement of the Nobel Prize winners for the new year.

Of course, as expected, Xiao Yi is not among the winners this year.

This has basically become the moment when netizens make fun of the Nobel Prize every year.

After all, with Xiao Yi's achievements, he is a hot favorite to win an award every year, but he has never won an award every year. Netizens are basically familiar with such things.

All in all, an award that was originally considered to have the most credibility has now become a laughing stock among many netizens.

[Very good, just as I expected, controlled nuclear fusion is still not worthy of the Nobel Prize in Physics. The Nobel Prize's vision is becoming more and more unique. ]

[@Nobel Prize Selection Committee, come out and comment on what you think nuclear fusion technology is? Is it an ordinary technology? ]

[It's okay, it's mainly because they can't create nuclear fusion themselves, so they are jealous. ]

Both domestic and foreign social platforms are making fun of this matter. Of course, the Nobel Prize Committee has never responded to this matter. They just play the role of a coward.

Of course, the news that the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the President of the United States became a topic of fun discussion.

In particular, there was news that the president won the Peace Prize because he wanted to start a war, and in order to prevent him from starting a war.

This sounds quite ironic.

To be honest, as the President of the United States, he has made great contributions to world peace by never starting a war. However, he has never received the Peace Prize. Now, he has won the Peace Prize because he is planning to start a war.

For a time, mocking the Nobel Prize and mocking the Peace Prize once again became hot topics among netizens.

Feishi, Science Island Laboratory.

Xiao Yi and Luo Mingya were walking along the shore of Shushan Lake. They had just finished their meal and came out to digest the food.

The H-20 project has nothing to do with Xiao Yi now. He was asked to do that mainly to solve the material problem. The remaining problems can be solved by the H-20 project team themselves.

As for Luo Mingya, she had been officially transferred to the Science Island Laboratory before September.

There was another reason. The material problem had been solved and there was no need for her to stay there any longer. After applying, Li Zhenhai signed it readily.

Of course, there are other reasons behind Li Zhenhai's frankness.

However, this is not enough for outsiders.

“Do you feel a little bit disappointed that you didn’t win the Nobel Prize?”

Suddenly, Luo Mingya asked.

Xiao Yi smiled and shook his head: "What's so regrettable about this? It's nothing more than a prize, plus 100 million US dollars."

"If I feel pity, then I have fallen into their trap."

Luo Mingya raised her eyebrows slightly and turned her head to glance at Xiao Yi's expression, which indeed did not seem fake.

She smiled, which was understandable.

People who have already been able to go down in history really don't need to care about such an award.

Just like so many Nobel Prize winners, she may not be able to remember all of them, but obviously people all over the world will remember that the person who solved the problem of controlled nuclear fusion was Xiao Yi.

Without saying anything more, he continued walking quietly.

After a while, Xiao Yi suddenly asked again: "By the way, I saw you applied for a new project some time ago, is that right?"

Luo Mingya nodded: "Yes, at least I have to show my value. What's more, I am not used to the feeling of being idle."

Xiao Yi nodded: "If you need funding, you can tell me."

Luo Mingya smiled and said, "The Science Island Laboratory has no shortage of funds."

"But..." She raised her eyebrows, "Didn't you always say that you never give people convenience in this regard? Are you making an exception now?"

Xiao Yi simply said, "Because I believe that as long as you have enough funding, you will be able to produce even better results. Laboratories have resources allocated to outstanding researchers, and this is a very normal thing."

Luo Mingya smiled lightly and said nothing more.

From a distance, Wang Li smiled as he watched this scene.

Although his sudden idea did not succeed at first, judging from the current situation, it has played a certain role.

Professor, professor, please follow the guidance of your emotions, unless you are not a human being.

Uh.

Wang Li suddenly didn't know what to say. After all, there were still many topics on the Internet discussing whether Xiao Yi was a human or not.

Could it be that he could use this method to determine whether Professor Xiao was a human being?
