I failed a course, and the system became my study supervisor.

Chapter 85: Investing Yuan

After the Spring Festival, the winter vacation was not over yet, so Xu Ling and Zheng Lifeng met again to discuss issues related to the control system.

The Swarm control system is used for joint combat control of drone swarms, which is consistent with the current research direction of China's military industry.

Zheng Lifeng was full of disbelief that Xu Ling had come up with new technology in such a short time.

He didn't even know how to praise him. In his eyes, describing Xu Ling as a genius seemed not enough.

However, he did not discuss cooperation with Xu Ling immediately. Instead, he first sent the Swarm drawings to the relevant technical departments for testing to see if they were better than their current research results.

Xu Ling was not worried about this.

Products produced by the system must be high-quality!
What made Xu Ling even more satisfied was that the design of Swarm was already very complete, and Xu Ling did not need to make any optimizations in the short term, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Finally, after seeing the test results, Zheng Lifeng decisively acquired the technology for a transaction amount of two million yuan.

Before leaving, Zheng Lifeng repeatedly told Xu Ling to give priority to China's military industry if there were any new discoveries.

Xu Ling had no objection.

But this time, Xu Ling did not donate the money directly.

Because donations can only be said to be a temporary solution, not a fundamental solution. Simply donating is like adding fuel to a fire; if the fuel is not exhausted, the fire will not be extinguished.

Capital will remain what it is.

……

At the same time, for senior students, there is only one last semester left in their college life.

Many schools will not offer courses this semester, so senior students can use this time to complete graduation projects, retake courses, or participate in corporate internships.

For Yu Wenkai, the end of these four years of university can be the starting point for his own entrepreneurship.

[Xu Ling, have you sold your battery system? ]

Yu Wenkai is still thinking about Xu Ling's ABS.

The child can now breastfeed, are you thinking about your first love?
Xu Ling was a little amused and replied:

Already sold.

[Who did you sell it to? ]

Yu Wenkai was somewhat unwilling.

【It’s not convenient to say.】

【All right. 】

……

After a long silence, Yu Wenkai sent another message:
I am almost done with the company registration process.

So this is considered a door?

Although he was happy for him, Xu Ling always felt that Yu Wenkai was a little careless.

[Have you made a plan for your company? What direction do you want to take?]

The facts were just as Xu Ling thought.

What plan does Yu Wenkai have?
[It's not confirmed yet. A few students working in network security seem interested, but nothing is confirmed yet.]

Yu Wenkai himself was a little embarrassed and added two crying face emojis at the end of the sentence.

Having spent a month at Shanghai Energy and most of the semester in the ABS research group, Xu Ling knew the importance of a good plan.

You should know that all the previous research work had strict plans.

And what about Yu Wenkai?
The company is going through the procedures and still doesn’t know what to do.

Somewhat speechless, Xu Ling asked another important question.

What is your total investment?

【One million.】

Yu Wenkai replied.

However, although one million seems like a lot, you have to know that Yu Wenkai runs a company in Shanghai, and millions may be a bit stretched.

【Do you want to invest in me? 】

Yu Wenkai asked excitedly. Xu Ling subconsciously wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he didn't say it directly:
If you can create a detailed business plan and I can see the future of your company, I might consider investing $500,000 in you.

【Brother, you are so nice! 】

Yu Wenkai was very happy and replied seriously.

Xu Ling smiled and didn't reply.

……

Back to himself, thinking about how he has been immersed in the field of drone batteries for so long, and how much of his work is related to modeling and algorithms, Xu Ling always feels that he is no longer like a student of the School of Physics.

Considering that he no longer had any scientific drawings, Xu Ling decided to focus back on his field of physics.

If you want to do something practical, you have to go to Zhang Zhongyao's laboratory often.

At this point in time, all previous work on using muon beams as probes to measure the charge-parity violation factor during neutrino oscillations has come to an end.

Through the final experimental verification, this scheme can obtain results with a reliability of more than five standard deviations.

In addition, the paper on this achievement had been submitted to the physics journal of Nature before the New Year and was confirmed to be included.

Zhang Zhongyao and a professor from Peking University and Tsinghua University are co-first authors.

This was the first time Xu Ling had seen this. He had always thought that the first author could only be one person.

What made Xu Ling even more excited was that his name was on the list of experimental personnel in the appendix of the paper.

"Teacher Zhang, what are the lab planning to do next?"

This is the issue that Xu Ling is more concerned about.

"Next, we plan to strike while the iron is hot and continue our work on muons and neutrinos."

Zhang Zhongyao said with a smile.

"What's the specific direction?"

Xu Ling continued to ask.

"The muon will still serve as a probe, but this time we're going to explore non-standard neutrino interactions and then try to extend the Standard Model of particle physics."

Zhang Zhongyao explained patiently.

The so-called Standard Model is a theoretical framework that describes the three fundamental forces, strong force, weak force and electromagnetic force, as well as the fundamental particles that make up all matter. It is the cornerstone of modern particle physics.

But it has certain limitations. For example, it cannot explain the fact that neutrinos have mass as revealed by the neutrino oscillation phenomenon.

This is something that is well known to modern physicists.

But what surprised Xu Ling was that Zhang Zhongyao was actually planning to operate on it.

Completing the Standard Model?

This may be something that most physicists dare not imagine.

But this also aroused Xu Ling's strong interest.

Go ahead to dangers!
With the system in place, is there anything to hesitate about?

"Can I participate in the research?"

Xu Ling asked expectantly.

"You're most welcome! This is a difficult topic, and it requires the participation of some more imaginative young people!"

Zhang Zhongyao nodded.

But now, the project has not been officially launched and is only undergoing some preparatory work.

Moreover, there are still some tails left from the previous project, and there are also several academic conferences similar to results discussion meetings.

One of the events was held at Peking University and Tsinghua University, and Zhang Zhongyao was of course going to attend, but to Xu Ling's surprise, Zhang Zhongyao planned to bring himself and Wang Xueqin.

In Zhang Zhongyao's words, it means seeing the world.

Anyway, there is still some time before the new semester starts, so Xu Ling naturally has no reason to refuse.

Xu Ling has never been to Beijing since he was a child.
