Actually, there's not much involved; the core element is nothing more than electromagnetic induction.

As for things like generators...

They provided design ideas and samples, and with the technology of the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences, manufacturing one would not be a problem.

The researchers' reaction after reviewing the data was: Is that all?

For the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences, this was really not difficult.

The reason they haven't been able to develop such a stable and inexpensive way to obtain electricity is that they haven't discovered the relationship between electromagnetic induction and electricity.

When their experiments require electricity, they often choose to use lightning elemental power directly, and the more stable and controllable method is to use lightning slime.

"Perhaps it is precisely because such a convenient method exists that no one has ever focused on such basic natural laws, but instead has been fixated on elemental forces. It is strange, since we do not have the Eye of God, we are always thinking of taking shortcuts."

He remembered Alan, the founder of the Academy of Sciences.

It is said that he believed it was too difficult for ordinary humans to directly control elemental forces, so he did not focus too much on elemental forces and eventually created the Manghuang energy system.

Only after that were devices developed that could convert between elemental forces and other forces.

"It's also related to our applications, right? For a long time, there haven't been any places that require stable, large-scale power supply, and Rei-Slime is sufficient to meet the needs of a small number of experiments," another person said.

"Who would have thought that this thing could have such a wide range of uses besides electric shocks and experiments? Look at that electric motor, with such a simple structure, it can power a small boat. In my opinion, the most essential part of it, besides the physical laws, lies in a series of complex energy conversions."

"really."

This thing uses a series of mechanical devices to ultimately convert energy into electricity, and then convert electricity into various types of energy as needed. It's really ingenious.

Compared to the "direct method" of extracting and using energy directly, which can be converted into various forms of energy, this method involves several detours. Not to mention the incomprehensible process of the Lu Chang Hun Neng, which involves countless steps and can only be observed at one stage.

The researchers were amazed that this thing was far simpler than they had imagined, and they continued to study it in depth.

Then, they gradually realized that something was wrong.

"Why do I keep feeling that this thing looks so similar to the energy storage devices from the Academy of Sciences?"

"I feel the same way, but the efficiency is still a bit low, and the energy storage is too small."

The two exchanged a glance, sensing that something was amiss.

Then, he flipped through it again.

"Look at this. Doesn't this thing look like the new output control device that Xavier designed before he left?"

"It does look somewhat similar. He hadn't even finished drawing the design for his new output control device before he left. He showed it to me, and here it is. It matches perfectly, almost exactly the same as what I saw."

The two looked at each other again.

"By the way, Xavier is the one who slept with Inazuma, right?"

right?

Chapter 129 Why not go to the desert?

In the director's office of the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences, looking at the reports submitted by the researchers about the extensive use of Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences technology by the Marine Science Institute, the director silently locked these documents in a safe instead of organizing them into the Academy's archives.

The key issue now is how to further develop applications within the power system and how to deepen cooperation with the other party.

Undoubtedly, this is a system with great potential, and the other party has more authority to speak on its application.

Cooperation is the current theme for both parties, and it brings significant benefits to both sides.

For example, based on this new energy system, the production cost of the redesigned electric-driven spring mechanism will be significantly reduced, and its versatility will also be greatly enhanced.

The clockwork mechanism will no longer be limited to the territory of Fontainebleau.

Compared to the benefits brought by the current favorable situation, the act of boarding the (railway) ship first and then paying the ticket later is a trivial matter that can be considered a big deal or a small matter. At least for now, it is obviously not appropriate to make a big deal out of it.

Do not say anything that is detrimental to unity.

Moreover, the large-scale use was limited to Inazuma, who lived in a closed-off country, and it was essentially a clandestine use. As for Liyue, which had cooperated with Inazuma...

The dean picked up the latest Steambird newspaper.

The image above shows workers using various electric production tools, including electric picks and drills, to carry out production work after the Blackrock Depths in Liyue were connected to electricity, as well as electric railcars transporting materials.

The public release took place after they formally reached a cross-licensing agreement and made it public.

Haiji Island did give them some face, at least they knew to sell the tickets to a third party after they paid the difference – at least they made the sale public.

However, the dean's expression still looked somewhat strained.

The other party's core technology was indeed independently developed, based on that newly discovered physical law, but the supporting technology was almost a direct copy of the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences.

The dean really wanted to complain, what kind of Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences is this Haizhi Island Branch?

As for whether they still made a profit after learning that much of the other party's technology actually came from the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences, that remains to be seen.

In the dean's mind, whether he made a profit or a loss was not important.

The important thing is that they got what they wanted: a stable, widely applicable, universally applicable, promising, and controllable new energy system.

As for the others, opinions are mixed.

Some people think they lost out.

They believe that the core of this is the theory of electromagnetic induction, and once this theory is understood, the rest of the work is not difficult.

Even if they don't cooperate, if they manage to study physical generators or motors in the future, they will definitely be able to reverse-engineer this theory from them.

As for authorization and such, we can discuss that later.

They felt they had been tricked.

However, given that obtaining data and conducting research as quickly as possible was their initial consensus, and that they also contributed to the collaboration, they are now in a difficult position and it's not appropriate to comment too much.

Some people felt they still made a profit.

If we don't take this step, we don't know when the other party will come to Fontaine, or when we will be able to see the actual object and begin our research.

By then, we will definitely be far behind others.

Even if they conduct research, they may not be able to derive this theory, and might even attribute it to mysterious elemental forces. This is different from having someone provide them with complete and logically rigorous information for study and reference.

Anyway, as long as we can get something out of the research, that's good.

Moreover, during academic exchanges, you might even reunite with old friends.

I thought we'd never see them again after they left the Academy of Sciences and Fontainebleau. I never expected there would be such a roundabout way to achieve our goal, giving us a chance to sit down and have a good talk.

Meanwhile, Haiji Island's efforts to facilitate cooperation with official agencies from various countries are driven by the desire to obtain official certification.

This thing is difficult to make well, but it's not complicated to actually make. Once the theory is explained, the rest depends on the engineering level, especially for a research institution like the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences, which has a very high level of expertise in mechanical design.

Whether the theory can be explained is hard to say.

Therefore, they contact these official agencies in advance and use means such as "patents" to protect their rights and seize the market.

The people of Liyue might be able to research it, figure out the principles, and even make it themselves, but there is a contract between them and the people of Liyue.

To publicly break the contract would be tantamount to the Liyue people destroying their own Great Wall. The Seven Stars are not so stupid as to do that unless they go too far and cross the Seven Stars' bottom line.

The people of Fontainebleau are very likely capable of researching it, but we also have an open cooperative licensing relationship with them.

There may be competition between the two sides, but based on that, Jiang Ming, as a transmigrator, can still offer some guidance on the application areas.

The Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences will gain clear research directions, faster R&D speed, more projects, especially those that can generate economic benefits, and reduce numerous trial-and-error costs.

This is enough for the Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences to maintain their collaborative research relationship.

In short, all parties, with their own agendas, maintained this harmonious situation, but in doing so, all their desires were satisfied.

There are no fundamental conflicts of interest. Now that everyone's interests can be satisfied through cooperation, wouldn't we all be friends?

Wouldn't that make you have more friends and fewer enemies?

That's exactly how it's done.

As things settled down in Fontaine, in Mondstadt, Lisa, the librarian who was very curious after hearing about the application of Liyue's power system, took the initiative to meet with Hokkaido.

Lisa knew that Hokusawa was a diplomat and didn't have a deep understanding of technical matters, so she didn't talk about the details, but only about macro-level things like application prospects.

As the official representative there, Hokusawa Kawakami certainly knew more information than she did from the newspapers.

In fact, Hokkaido Kawakami did not disappoint Lisa's expectations. In addition to some undisclosed information, he also shared his own insights on the application prospects and development of this system.

Of course, this is mainly because Lisa is on the list, which is why Hokusawa said so much.

Lisa seemed quite pleased; talking to intelligent people is always a pleasant and relaxing experience.

At least the other person won't be immersed in their own little world, endlessly repeating their own logic without considering what others are saying.

Gradually, their conversations expanded beyond the power system to include many other topics.

This includes what Hokusai Kawakami mentioned: they are looking for a dark brown, pungent, viscous, oily liquid substance that can be burned.

Lisa frowned slightly.

Why does it feel so familiar?

Did she see similar substances in the desert when she was studying at the Faculty of Education?

"Why don't you go and take a look in the Sumeru Desert? I'll mark a location for you."

Chapter 130 Crimson King Technology: Awe-inspiring

The working group in Sumeru was divided into two groups, which was completely different from the situation in Mondstadt or Fontaine.

Because they are responsible for two completely different directions: the Sumeru Rainforest and the Sumeru Desert.

Sumeru can almost be viewed as two separate kingdoms.

On one side is a rainforest with a strong academic atmosphere where everyone pursues knowledge; on the other side is a desert with a harsh environment, where people suffer from discrimination and oppression, where survival is difficult, and where social Darwinism, where the strong prey on the weak, prevails.

Although both belong to Sumeru, in these two completely different and somewhat extreme environments, the two sides are completely different and somewhat extreme countries.

Moreover, they can be said to not interfere with each other.

Although the Council of the Church nominally possesses sovereignty over the desert and can take necessary action when necessary, such as in the event of attacks on Council scholars or the theft of goods, in most cases, the Council members disdain and ignore the desert.

The desert is like a place of exile, a system that is almost entirely self-contained, although it is a system of the survival of the fittest.
