The End of Technology

Cui Yao's words made Jiang Fengjie's eyes light up.

What does it mean to have a bright future in another village? This is it.

I thought that this trip to the capital would be in vain because of that unreliable friend. After all, his main scope of activities is in Mingzhu, and he really can't find a more reliable friend in the capital to help him introduce older friends.

But who would have thought that he would catch a researcher from the research center just by chance.

It had been announced for a long time that the campus of the Space University School of Physical Education was located at the Ningyuan Research Center. In any case, he had met an insider, so Jiang Fengjie immediately put on a more enthusiastic smile: "That's it. Yes, Professor Cui, can you please spare a little time? I would like to use some of our publicity channels to promote the new Space College of the University of Physical Education."

"publicity?"

Cui Yao glanced at Jiang Fengjie suspiciously and asked: "Does Ningyuan External Publicity have an official website? And if it is to deal with media publicity, the school is usually responsible for it, right? And it is useless for you to interview me. I am only responsible for My own laboratory.”

"It's okay, it's okay. In fact, I just understand some of the simplest things. It's all for the promotion of the Space Academy. It is indeed the first major in the world. Many of our readers are also very interested in this new major, especially those from the University of Physical Education. The admission notices of the Space Academy have been all over the Internet. I guess you know this, so how about we briefly chat about these things for a while? We can also accept paid interviews. Of course, we will pay you for the interview. ." Jiang Fengjie said extremely sincerely.

Cui Yao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Forget it, we have to pay a fee, but we can talk a few words about our admission notices. After all, our laboratory also participated in the production of these admission notices, so that's a little bit. A negligible contribution. But..." Cui Yao took out his mobile phone and looked at the time before continuing: "I can only give you one and a half hours. I have to rush back to the base and complete a report in the afternoon."

"No problem!" Jiang Fengjie said happily: "Let's walk and chat first, and then find a coffee shop or tea room. Do you think that's okay?"

"Okay, I know a place that's pretty good and quite quiet. Let's go."

"Okay, let's go." Jiang Fengjie said happily.

…

"Professor Cui, then we will officially start?"

"OK."

"Professor Cui, you also participated in the study of the admission notice of the Space University School of Physical Education, right?"

"Well, you can't say that. To be more precise, our laboratory is responsible for part of the material research. Because we are engaged in materials, the notice we used this time used a flexible metal fiber material. It is my laboratory that is responsible for the production.”

"Oh, then this must be the main material for the production notice, right?"

"It can't be said to be the main material, but it is indeed a relatively important component material, because its main function is to allow colored light to be sorted according to a predetermined program, so the arrangement of our materials directly determines the pattern of the holographic simulation. Toward.”

"Professor Cui, you are so humble. I can understand. This material you are talking about is the most critical thing to realize holographic images, right?"

"Haha, no, no, no, that's not modesty. Let's put it this way, where do you think light comes from?"

"What light?" Jiang Fengjie was a little confused by this question.

"Of course it's the light that forms the image after the notice is opened? You must have never seen a real notice, right? If you have seen it, you will know that the magic point is not the arrangement of the images, but that you can't see the LED tube Lu, you don't know where the light comes from, this is the real black technology. As for the flexible sorting we do, it is really trivial." Cui Yao said, shaking his head.

This former researcher at Shuangdan University probably understood why Ning Zi didn't like to be interviewed by reporters. Talking to them about science was like playing the piano to others. Maybe this person really thinks that the admission letter is awesome, but it is obvious that this person has no idea what the awesomeness is.

"Forehead……"

"Don't you understand? Let's put it this way, the light you usually look at on your mobile phone is emitted by the light inside the mobile phone, but our admission notice is a very ordinary material in the eyes of ordinary people, so where do its photons come from? That’s the problem. That’s the most powerful thing about our notice.”

"I understand." Jiang Fengjie said quickly: "Do you plan to promote this kind of technologically large R\u0026D base?"

"Promotion?" Cui Yao glanced at Jiang Fengjie and asked, "What do you mean by promotion?"

"That is, don't you plan to license this technology to external parties? For example, if it is used on mobile phones, does that mean that our mobile phones can have holographic functions? Or can it be made into a cinema? By adding it to a smart home system, you can make your home Simulate various scenarios." Jiang Fengjie said immediately.

Cui Yao shook his head and replied: "As far as I know, there is no such plan at present. In fact, these materials are developed for future use in space, but I can't tell you too much in detail. It involves some confidential content. As for authorizing civilian use , at least in the short term, it’s definitely not possible.”

Jiang Fengjie subconsciously raised his hand and scratched his head.

This answer was something he didn't expect. He could imagine with his feet how much profit this kind of technology could bring to the laboratory if it was willing to open it up. But I never expected that such technology is currently only used on notices.

What a waste of natural resources.

Jiang Fengjie originally thought that the Space University School of Physical Education put this technology on the notice just for advertising.

Obviously this advertisement was put out, but they didn't want to sell it at all. This is too... cheap.

Jiang Fengjie couldn't help but ask: "Well...if the research center does not plan to license it to outside parties, why does it use this technology in the admission notice?"

Cui Yao shrugged and said, "Oh, this is because some materials require very high storage conditions. We produce a lot of materials in several laboratories, most of which are used for various tests and record various physical properties. This way There will be a lot of leftover scraps and some defective materials, which would be a waste if they were destroyed directly.

This kind of waste mainly comes from two aspects. First, the destruction process is very troublesome, and second, the materials themselves have a certain value. Later, everyone thought about it together and found that making admission notices was not only cool, but also helped the school save a lot of money, so several of our laboratories worked overtime to make these batches of notices..."

Jiang Fengjie decided to give full marks to this answer, and it was also the most newsworthy sentence he got today.

The admission notice, which took a long time to work on, was made out of a pile of defective materials in the laboratory, which was considered waste recycling.

Jiang Fengjie, who has some scientific literacy but not much, immediately asked: "Aren't you worried that these materials and technologies will be leaked in this way?"

Cui Yao smiled and replied: "I originally had such concerns. However, after the project was submitted, the leadership of the research center approved it. However, some special technical means were used, which is basically impossible to crack. .So the technical details will not be leaked. To say the least, even if some scientific research institutions can get these notices and conduct reverse engineering, they will get defective product data that cannot meet the requirements at all. For us, It has no impact.

In addition, let me briefly talk about the question you just asked. Of course our technology can be used in the fields you mentioned, but if it is really used, it is actually not a good choice for today's consumers, because many operating habits and content presentation forms are not so easy to change. On the other hand, our School of Computer Science’s independent programming software, Faster, is now being promoted abroad. However, the software is not yet available in China. If this technology is promoted now, it will be extremely unfriendly to domestic developers.

Because the display logic has been changed, for various software, the underlying interface logic needs to be changed. This is a very huge project. Except for a very small number of large companies that can quickly keep up with the pace and produce products, the vast majority of small companies cannot respond so quickly. So it's not necessary, really not necessary. "

After saying that, Cui Yao looked at his phone again and said, "Reporter Jiang, it's almost time. I have to rush to the center. Do you see any other problems? No problem, I have to leave."

Hearing Cui Yao's words, Jiang Fengjie hurriedly asked: "Last question, Professor Cui, can you briefly introduce any other unparalleled technologies in our R\u0026D center at Sports University?"

"It's hard for me to answer this. After all, I'm just an ordinary researcher, managing a small laboratory. There are at least three to five hundred researchers of the same level as me in the entire base. But our R\u0026D base is the world's leading technology As for the center, I think there must be a lot of things in reserve. What can be put out for everyone to see is not something that needs to be kept secret. What really needs to be kept secret, everyone can’t see it, right?"

After Cui Yao answered with a smile, he stood up directly and said: "Okay, let's stop here today. I have to rush back to the base, otherwise I won't be able to complete today's mission. By the way, you can report whatever I said today, But be sure not to add insult to injury. I don’t care, but you know that if you talk nonsense and make our boss unhappy, you will be the unlucky one. That’s it.”

Jiang Fengjie said quickly: "Don't worry, Professor Cui, no, no. Thank you so much today. How about we add a WeChat account? After I finish writing the things, I will send them to you for review. You can help me check?"

Cui Yao thought for a while and finally shook his head and said: "It's not necessary. In fact, I didn't say anything sensitive. And our WeChat is not commonly used."

"this……"

"Gone, gone! Goodbye!"

…

The report of Jiang Fengjie’s interview with Cui Yao was immediately published on the official account of Oriental Newspaper.

Speaking of which, this is probably the first report published by a formal media about the ins and outs of the Space Academy Notice.

It’s really not that other media don’t have that kind of sensitivity and aren’t interested in this new hot topic. The main reason is that most reporters from other media followed the formal route, and were directly accepted by the publicity department of the University of Sports. Everyone was welcomed and sent off, and some chats were made. Naturally, there was no real information.

As for the publicity department, most of them have drafts. What you can say and what you can't say are all clear.

The most important thing is that the materials provided by Ningyuan R\u0026D Base to the publicity department are extremely perfunctory. They often just copy the things on the website and throw them to the school, and that's enough. There is nothing we can do, no matter what we catch or don’t catch, everyone is clear about it.

Ning Zi never paid much attention to publicity, and she basically had no contact with any reporters. She would directly push away anyone who wanted to be interviewed.

Therefore, there is not even a dedicated person in charge of publicity work in the base.

When administrative staff, including Zhuo Mingqian, receive applications, they always push them directly to the school. After all, the school has specialized talents to deal with this.

The base only focuses on scientific research efficiency and results, so for administrative staff, only if their job is to serve those laboratories with potential will they be rewarded.

So Jiang Fengjie’s report became popular.

The main reason is probably because this report has a title that is not exaggerated but is extremely eye-catching at this time.

“Exclusive conversation with an internal professor at the Scientific Research Base of Sports University: The admission notice to the School of Space at Sports University is actually made of defective materials that have been eliminated from the laboratory.”

What can I say? The title is indeed very interesting and ambiguous. At first glance, I can’t tell whether it means to praise or to criticize.

Especially when the short video about the admission notice of the Space University School of Physical Education was at the height of popularity, when I suddenly saw this title, people and ghosts alike wanted to find out.

When you click on it, you will find that this article has a lot of useful information.

Is such a bright admission notice because it is too troublesome to directly destroy the new materials in the scientific research base of the National Sports University? So these defective materials that will not be used in future space are used as notifications first?

Really, a lot of people are numb.

At the same time, some insider information revealed by Professor Cui Yao also made people more curious about this notice.

More people began to flock to the video to take a closer look at where the light was coming from.

Sure enough, many people found that the notices in the video did not have any luminous points that they could understand. It was as if those light points appeared naturally after being opened. It didn't look scientific at all, but it looked like magic. .

Another comment started to go viral in the comment section that had been popular for a while.

"The world is afraid of people playing magic in the name of various sciences. I remember that Ning Zi has done it twice before, and this is the third time! The first time was lightning strike, the second time was levitation, and this time It’s a luminescence technique. From this we can see that Ning Zi is probably the legendary magician of the whole department, and the so-called Space Academy of the University of Physical Education is actually the Gryffindor Academy of China’s Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. If you don’t accept it, come and argue!”

Well, there are many people arguing, but it seems that the vast majority of people are actually quite convinced.

For example, the comment with the most likes was: "I am a Muggle!"

Today I have cold symptoms, specifically a stuffy nose and sore throat. What’s even more painful is that Pudding, who had never had any symptoms, started to have a fever in the afternoon...
