Ultimate Scholar

Chapter 303 I ate the table



Looking at the six confused faces in front of him, Li Mu smiled.

He wasn't surprised by this.

Probably for almost all scientists in the world, [researching room-temperature superconductors] is an unimaginable subject.

This subject always gives these scientists an unfinished view. \b

Even now, they still find it unbelievable that Li Mu is leading them to study this topic.

"That's about it overall."

"If you have any questions now, you can ask me. "

After Li Mu finished speaking, the conference room also became quiet.

Li Mu sat back on the front seat, then picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

The tea was given to him by Yun Rongshang, who said it was given to her father when someone visited her home during the Chinese New Year, so she brought it over.

And when you drink it, the taste is excellent.

Yun Rongshang’s father is quite generous!

Li Mu felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

However, while he was sipping tea here, the four Ding Cheng people over there still looked numb.

For them, it is still unimaginable to study room-temperature superconductors.

Of course, in the end, they had to accept this fact. In the next period of time, they will indeed set room temperature superconductors as their ultimate goal.

Ding Cheng reacted quickly. He turned around, took out the scratch paper and pen from his bag, and then looked at the room temperature superconductor material designed by Li Mu on the PPT.

LSC... Ding Cheng narrowed his eyes, and then began to calculate on the scratch paper based on the material structure and the relevant data given.

By using Li Mu's superconducting theory, he can calculate whether this material can really achieve room-temperature superconducting effects.

Although it is only a theoretical result, according to the current unified viewpoint of the academic community, this theoretical result is relatively accurate.

At least, so far, all known superconductors are fully consistent with the results of this theory. \b

Ding Cheng was worthy of being praised by Li Mu during the interview process for having a deep grasp of superconducting theory. Soon, he calculated a rough critical value result.

He opened his eyes wide, "It's actually true..."

The upper critical temperature can reach over 100 degrees!

If they can really be synthesized...

Ding Cheng had already explained the question Li Mu asked at the end of the interview. He was a person who believed in the existence of normal-temperature superconductors, and who believed that normal-temperature superconductors could be synthesized by them sooner or later.

So now, he began to have such hope in his heart. Perhaps, under the leadership of their Dean Li, they could really...

Thinking of this, Ding Cheng's eyes lit up.

At this time, he had forgotten the purpose of coming to Sheshan Research Institute and focused entirely on room temperature superconductors.

No physicist can reject room temperature superconductors.

Immediately, he stood up and asked: "Dean Li, when will our research begin?"

The five people nearby were stunned when they saw Ding Cheng's reaction. Why did this guy suddenly look so excited?

And Li Mu laughed: "It will officially start tomorrow."

"Okay, Dean, I'm ready." Ding Cheng said.

Li Mu nodded slightly, then he put down the tea cup in his hand, stood up, looked at the other people, and asked, "It seems that Ding Cheng has no problem now. Do the others still have problems?"

The other five people looked at each other, then nodded: "No problem."

Their only problem is their awe for room temperature superconductors, but now that Ding Chengdu has nothing to say, they naturally won't say anything more.

Li Mu nodded with satisfaction: "Then that's it, we'll meet at the No. 1 Condensed Matter Laboratory tomorrow for a chat."

"Ding Cheng, Ding Cheng!"

After Ding Cheng left the conference room, he was about to return to his dormitory when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind.

He turned around and saw another person who had just attended the meeting with him.

His name is Zhang Peiwen, a researcher at the Institute of Theoretical Physics of Beijing University. Like him, he is young but extremely talented.

And similarly, Zhang Peiwen was also arranged to come in.

"What's wrong?"

Ding Cheng asked, looking at the somewhat tangled expression on Zhang Peiwen's face.

"What should we do now? Why did Dean Li let us participate in his project, and it is such an important topic..."

After hearing Zhang Peiwen's words, Ding Cheng also fell silent.

The excitement in my heart began to fade at this time, turning into a feeling of melancholy.

What are they going to do now?

Zhang Peiwen held his head with both hands and said with some pain: "If Principal Ning asks me, I don't know how to answer."

Ding Cheng was silent for a moment, and then said: "When the time comes, just say that there are people from the National Security Bureau present to supervise our signing of the confidentiality agreement, so we will not disclose it to him. After all, if you leak the secret to him, then the National Security personnel will , I will definitely find him."

Zhang Peiwen thought for a moment, then nodded: "That's right, he can't possibly want to be targeted by the National Security Bureau."

Ding Cheng shook his head and said, "Okay, let's not think so much. Maybe we are also being watched by the National Security Bureau now."

Hearing Ding Cheng's words, Zhang Peiwen was stunned, and then looked around. There were still very few people in the scientific research institute, but there were some people walking past.

Maybe there are some plainclothes among them?

Zhang Peiwen nodded, and then said no more: "Then I'll leave first."

"Um."

Ding Cheng nodded, then left here and returned to his dormitory.

As a researcher at Sheshan Research Institute, you are usually assigned a dormitory.

And they are all single dormitories.

Depending on the level of the position, the environment of the dormitory will be different. It is generally divided according to the area, from 25 square meters for intern researchers to 75 square meters for full researchers. It is divided by grade. If you are an academician, there are more than 100 square meters. Large flat floors are provided. Of course, such large flat floors are still under construction and are expected to be completed in about half a year.

In addition, there are independent villas specially provided for top scholars to live in. As for what top scholars are, anyway, for now, only Li Mu in the entire scientific research institute currently lives in the No. 1 villa of the scientific research institute.

Of course, for Ding Cheng, who lived in the associate researcher's dormitory, he had not considered such a single-family villa.

The dormitory of the associate researcher is 60 square meters, which is very spacious for one person to live in. It is even enough for one more person.

Returning to his desk, Ding Cheng picked up the information he had just handed out and began to study it to prepare for tomorrow.

However, after a while, the phone rang, and when he saw it, it was Zhao Shaocheng.

Ding Cheng frowned, finally sighed and answered the phone.

"Ding Cheng, are you finished attending the meeting?"

"Yes, Academician Zhao."

"What did Li Mu say at the meeting? Was it about the project?"

"……Yes."

"What's the topic?"

"This... I'm sorry, Academician Zhao, I can't reveal it to you."

Zhao Shaocheng on the other end of the phone immediately raised his voice: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

He was startled by Zhao Shaocheng's suddenly raised voice. The feeling of being fucked by Zhao Shaocheng in the past so many years seemed to have returned to his heart. But thinking of room temperature superconductivity, Ding Cheng became tough again and said: "We signed a confidentiality agreement. Academician Zhao, I can’t tell you.”

"It's just a confidentiality agreement. If you tell me, I won't tell others. No one else will know it by then." Zhao Shaocheng said nonchalantly.

"But when we signed the confidentiality agreement, there were people from the National Security Bureau present, and they supervised our signing."

"What?! Confidential Bureau?"

Hearing Ding Cheng's words, Zhao Shaocheng was immediately shocked.

The indifferent attitude just now became serious again.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true. Maybe my call with you is being monitored."

Ding Cheng's words made Zhao Shaocheng confused for a moment. Maybe what Ding Cheng said was true?

Their calls are being monitored...

However, in the end, he snorted coldly and protected his face in front of Ding Cheng: "So what, forget it, I won't tell you anymore, I will contact you later."

After hanging up the phone, Ding Cheng put down his phone.

Obviously, Zhao Shaocheng is also afraid of something.

For a time, the fear of Zhao Shaocheng in his heart was a little less.

Looking at the information again, he continued his research.

On the other side, in the Institute of Physics, Zhao Shaocheng began to think deeply after putting down his mobile phone.

What kind of issues would it be that would allow people from the Confidentiality Bureau to supervise the signing of confidentiality agreements?

At least what is certain is that it is definitely a very important issue and will be of great significance to the development of the country.

only……

Ding Chengcheng studies condensed matter physics, so what does he have to do with this kind of subject?

He was puzzled and finally decided to discuss it with those people.

And just in time, because of Zhang Peiwen, the two of them called together, and soon the people from before got together again.

"What do you think they plan to study? And it's related to condensed matter physics, but they can get people from the Confidentiality Bureau to make a special trip?"

"Who knows... isn't Li Mu a theoretical scholar? What theories does he study that deserve the country's attention?"

Someone jokingly said: "It can't be a room-temperature superconductor, right?"

"Are you kidding?" Zhao Shaocheng shook his head with a smile and said, "If it is really a room-temperature superconductor, I will eat this table directly."

Others also nodded. They didn't believe that Li Mu dared to study room temperature superconductors.

For now, no one of them believes that this thing can be done.

Just like those who climbed onto the SCN with room-temperature superconductors, they have now become a joke.

Would Li Mu do such a project that would discredit him?

However, at this time, one person hesitated for a moment and said, "I have some news. They seem to be studying room-temperature superconductors."

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, and then they all looked over: "Chen Maocai, where did you know about this?"

"I happen to know someone from the Confidentiality Bureau. After I asked him about it, he said that this subject is not classified. Maybe we will know about it after a while."

"After all, this is the first project Li Mu has taken on since he came back. He has to come up with it to prove his ability."

Everyone present was stunned.

That guy...

How dare you?

He actually went to study room temperature superconductors...

At this time, many people in the conference room looked at Zhao Shaocheng. This old guy just said he wanted to eat the table.

Zhou Yuankang, who was not dealing with Zhao Shaocheng, immediately started to sneer: "The man named Zhao has a good way of tricking people into eating and drinking. Come and eat."

Zhao Shaocheng's face turned green and white, but soon he stood up and laughed out loud: "Li Mu is destroying the Great Wall!"

"What is a room-temperature superconductor? He said that he can research it after researching it? Even if he is given a room-temperature superconductor material in front of him, whether he can reverse engineer it is a problem, let alone now... Can the country provide it? Does he provide that much funding cost?”

"Hmph, if he can really develop a room-temperature superconductor, then I will eat this table, and I will completely convince him."

"But is it possible?"

"When his project was declared a failure, we immediately wrote to the higher authorities to ban the Sheshan Research Institute. If such a large amount of funds were given to us, we might be able to publish a few more SCNs."

Zhao Shaocheng's words diverted everyone's attention away from the eating table just now.

When everyone thought about it, it was indeed true. When Li Mu declared failure, it was equivalent to giving the handle to them.

When so many of them sign a letter, even if the higher authorities won't ban the Sheshan Research Institute, they will definitely cut its funding and status.

In this way, their goal will be achieved.

Thinking of this, everyone nodded in unison.

"Okay, then let's do this." Ning Zhiyuan said, "We should remain unchanged to cope with all changes."

However, for them, the direction of things is always far beyond their imagination.

Two months later.

In the materials laboratory of Sheshan Research Institute.

Under the guidance of Li Mu, Ding Cheng and the others are trying to synthesize a set of LSC alloy synthesis methods that were finally determined after many experimental designs.

They have always had a strange feeling. Li Mu seemed to have always known what to do and had been guiding them. It was as if these six talented young scholars had become ordinary intern researchers or assistant researchers. Doing odd jobs in the laboratory.

Of course, in the end, this feeling was just regarded as an illusion by them. After all, this is a room-temperature superconductor. How could Li Mu have known how to synthesize it?

"The last step is to use the zinc generated during the catalytic reaction of zinc oxide to provide zinc vapor and blend it into the copper, iron, and niobium molten slurry..."

"Whether it can be done or not depends on this step." Zhang Peiwen said.

Ding Cheng, who was standing next to him, smiled and shook his head: "Don't think about it. This is a room-temperature superconductor. How can it be so easy to make? We are just experimenting now."

"makes sense."

"Stop talking and be careful when operating. The temperature is thousands of degrees."

Another researcher next to him reminded me.

Ding Cheng and the others nodded and said no more.

After the last step was completed, they carefully poured the final molten slurry into the tank and waited for it to cool.

At this time, they didn't take it seriously at all. After all, Li Mu, who was standing next to them, didn't seem to take it seriously either.

It seems that they have mastered the secret of not being disappointed as long as they don't raise expectations.

However, as the molten slurry in the tank cooled and formed, they took it out and conducted the first verification experiment. They were stunned by the quantum locking phenomenon of the alloy floating on the magnet.

What the fuck...

Is it really a quantum locked state?

Is this the Meissner effect?

The six people were stunned.

And Li Mu smiled.
