Resurrection Empire

Ren Zhong's attitude is very frank, and the senior commissioner of the shipyard can't find any faults at all.

But the commissioner's heart was hit hard.

At this moment, Ren Zhong suddenly changed his style of painting, "However, we can try to see if we can use rarer materials, stronger structures, and better shield performance to further improve the overall rigidity of the experimental battleship. If the improved The warships can even bear the price of warping failure, so what does it matter if you only succeed once in three attempts?"

The high commissioner hummed, "It's a new solution."

"No one understands short-range warp better than me. In fact, the strength of the three-dimensional force will also change according to the size of the error value. Therefore, this matter is completely feasible. Why don't you let me look at the existing knowledge of ship design in the Institute, and further Improve my knowledge structure, and work together to figure out a solution slowly?"

Ren Zhong continued to speak with a smile, appearing extremely enthusiastic.

Qi Qi, who was standing behind him, somehow felt that Ren Zhong's smile seemed a little treacherous.

Qiqi's spies in the Nanxiang star cluster told her that since Ren Zhong visited Marvell's voyage ship, Chifeng Academy of Sciences is rapidly iterating on the design ideas of new ships.

At that time, it was just a temporary inspection for this guy, and so many valuable skills were taken away for nothing. I am afraid that the Shipyard of Yuanjiang Branch will be miserable.

The high commissioner only hesitated for a moment, and seemed to take advantage of this time to report to his superiors. After receiving a reply, he just cupped his hands and said sincerely: "Then I will have the help of Uncle Lao Chifeng."

Ren Zhong: "You're welcome, everyone is sharing the Emperor's worries, I should do it."

Chapter 559

For Ren Zhong, who has the ability of photographic memory, he can basically achieve what he sees is what he gets.

The commissioner of the shipyard had thought about the issue of technical secrecy, but felt that it was not a big problem.

Ren Zhong was already in the talent introduction directory of the Royal Academy of Sciences, and he was a candidate for recruiting.

In addition, Ren Zhong has also passed the psychological review.His loyalty to the Emperor is unquestionable, so even if he learns more about scientific and technological achievements beyond the earl's authority, it will not hurt.

Moreover, he is only one person, let him take a look, even if he can learn some things to enhance the strength of his own fleet, the range will not be too exaggerated, and the problem is not big.

With such a thought in mind, the senior commissioner was generous, personally accompanied him, took Ren Zhong to the core database of the design institute, brought out a lot of information for Ren Zhong to read, and gave a detailed explanation in person.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

Ren Zhong soon realized that he really underestimated the huge background of the machine empire with a history of tens of millions of years.

Other basic theoretical knowledge is fine, but the Mechanical Empire's accumulation in materials science is really profound.

When basic science stagnates, there is a subdivision of science that can rely on the precipitation of time to make slow but steady progress, which is material science.

In any era of human beings, the essence of material science is actually the accumulation of experience.

Human beings go to more places, get more novel substances, and make more combinations, even if they are just pure luck, they can always advance the science of materials bit by bit.

The machine empire has a vast territory, and there are countless planets in the territory it rules.

Such a huge geographical base and time base can always create some incredible substances, and there is always a probability that they will be discovered by the humans of the empire. For example, the strange ore that Ren Zhong came into contact with for the first time on the source star is one of them.

In the past, Ren Zhong did not have the authority to consult these relevant materials, but now that he has come to this affiliated institution of the Royal Academy of Sciences, he has finally glimpsed the tip of the iceberg.

Different magical materials have different characteristics, and some materials with special effects can even bring fundamental performance improvements if they can be used in ships and weapons.

These or key, or just subtle but objective performance improvements, eventually converged into a qualitative difference in ship performance.

Ren Zhong didn't really want to prostitute others for nothing. After a whole afternoon, he really used himself to enlighten himself, and then studied his own ship design thinking system for many years and gradually became a master. Some improvement ideas with high feasibility were proposed for the shipyard of Yuanjiang Branch.

The High Commissioner was mesmerized when he heard it, he was astonished and deeply moved.

……

In the evening, Ren Zhong preached like a teacher.

"The tearing effect of the three-dimensional force on the ship's structure is not an impact from the outside to the inside, which is different from the ship being hit by an explosive missile. So if this self-dissolving biological adhesive is used in the ship On the detailed parts, in order to enhance the stability of some parts that cannot be forged as a whole, it can effectively prevent the internal shock when the warp fails. According to the data, this kind of adhesive needs to be produced slowly by biochemical means using specific organisms , so the production capacity is very small and the cost is high. But I think that if the goal is to create a fleet of surprise soldiers for the empire that can control the world on the frontal battlefield, the more expensive is worth it."

The high commissioner also nodded, "That's the reason, but it's a big deal. I'll just record your suggestion, Uncle Chi Feng, before submitting it. The specific decision depends on the high-level decision of the Academy of Sciences."

"No hurry, the next question. Oh! Light travels faster in this gel than in a vacuum! It's unbelievable that there is such a thing in the universe." Ren Zhong exclaimed.

The High Commissioner nodded, "Indeed."

"Then, in theory, this gel can be used to speed up the transmission speed of the command signal in the ship, so as to shorten the time difference caused by the four periods of time I mentioned earlier. If the time difference is a little shorter, then the intelligence brain will have a better understanding of the coordinates of the universe. The prediction calculation error rate of the system can be slightly reduced. You can try to use it. But there is a problem." Ren Zhong said with a frown.

The High Commissioner asked: "What's the problem? Please specify."

"I want to know the principle. What is the principle that can cause light to travel faster than a vacuum in this material. We should try our best to get to the root of everything. Once we understand the fundamental principle, we can naturally use theory to introduce more practical applications. methods, find broader application prospects, and reduce the production cost of special materials. Investigating the principles is the correct way of doing learning.”

The High Commissioner had a hard time on his face, "This..."

"What's wrong?" Ren Zhong asked.

The commissioner showed embarrassment, "I'm sorry, this is indeed beyond my professional ability."

Ren Zhong: "Is there no clear statement in the database? There are so many scientists in the empire, there is no way?"

"I checked it just now." The commissioner shook his head, "No."

"That's such a pity. Today I only have these thoughts for a while. I have already understood the things I need to understand. If I have any thoughts later, I will send you a message. Let's do it for now." Ren Zhong said Showing disappointment, he stood up.

He gestured to look at the time on his watch, "Before I knew it, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. Tomorrow is my canonization ceremony. I will take my leave first."

"Ah? Are you leaving now?" The commissioner also stood up, feeling very disappointed.

After this afternoon's comprehensive exchanges, the High Commissioner has fully realized his ability to shoulder heavy responsibilities.

Some rumors that had been quite popular in the Academy of Sciences were self-defeating.

The academic ability of Chifeng Academy of Sciences is rising rapidly.The intelligence personnel of the Royal Academy of Sciences saw this very clearly and reported it truthfully.

Some people in the Royal Academy of Sciences believed that this was due to Uncle Chi Feng's heavy responsibility.This earl is not only the pinnacle of the power pyramid of the Chi Feng clan, but also the pinnacle of the academic pyramid.

The information released by Chifeng Academy of Sciences shows that Uncle Chifeng has indeed played the role of an academic leader in many fields.He dabbles in a wide range of fields and has achieved results. Sometimes he can even guide others with just a few words, so that the project team facing difficulties can quickly break through the barrier.

But there are still some people who think this is too unbelievable.

They believe that people's energy is always limited, and no matter how smart they are, they should not understand so many fields with huge spans.He is likely to occupy other people's achievements, and then speak out with his own mouth, so as to create a glorious and stalwart personal image for himself, so as to enhance his personal authority and improve his dominance.This is not shameful. In the empire, many high-ranking nobles do this.

Now, however, the high commissioner feels that second theory is wildly wrong.

This Uncle Chi Feng is just so amazing.

He even quietly wrote his views into the report and reported it to the top management in real time.

In fact, his communication with Ren Zhong today was not just for jumping the battleship, the second task was to further investigate the details of Earl Chifeng, so as to find out whether this Earl is the first type or the second type of person.

Now the answer is ready to come out, and the commissioner has also received clear instructions from the superiors of the Yuanjiang Branch. People must be drawn into the Yuanjiang Branch. This rising academic star cannot be thrown into the dangerous interstellar battlefield, let alone Let him be involved in the political environment within the empire.

Such a person, if he can't let him devote himself to learning, if he can't give him the stage of the Royal Academy of Sciences, let him leave a strong mark in the history of human science and technology in the empire like those academically chosen ones, it would be a waste of money, is a crime.

"Uncle Chi Feng, wait a moment." Seeing that he couldn't stay, the high commissioner finally decided to see him.

Ren Zhong stamped his feet, turned around and asked in doubt: "What's wrong?"

"I want to ask, Uncle Chi Feng, are you interested in joining the Royal Academy? This will not affect your earl canonization. Working in the Royal Academy, you can also get military exploits and be promoted to the title. Not only that, if you can create a new Achievements, and even have the opportunity to obtain a large amount of military exploits that are difficult to obtain on the battlefield in a short period of time."

"In fact, in the history of the empire, there are quite a few people who became the chosen ones through scientific research, and were finally named dukes or even princes. I have also seen your battle video, Uncle Chi Feng, and know that you are very good at fighting. Powerful, but I personally think that your potential at the scientific level is not bad, or even stronger. Most importantly, once you enter the Royal Academy of Sciences, you will no longer have to go to the dangerous front line. Your life will be more secure. Believe I, this is a conscious choice."

Ren Zhong was not surprised when he heard this.

In fact, he has been waiting for the other party's solicitation all afternoon.

It would be a surprise if the Yuanjiang branch really let him go so easily.

Frankly speaking, he is very yearning for the kind of life described by the Commissioner, who is only engaged in scientific work and does not care about other things.

That was his ideal.

But unfortunately, now he has other insistence, and he can only say goodbye to his former self.

Throwing a pen into the army is like shooting a bow, and there is no turning back.

After all, there is no mild revolution, there must be war.

He must master military power.

While the two were talking, Qiqi, the "bionic man" who had been standing beside her, quietly and slightly tightened her body and limbs, revealing the tension deep in her heart.

Ren Zhong observed this.

Qiqi's thinking is the remote projection of Zhenjianghou.

The psychological fluctuations of Marquis Zhenjiang in the distance actually appeared on Qiqi's bionic body, which shows how nervous she is inside at this time.

Ren Zhong shook his head, "Thank you for your kindness. If there is a chance in the future, I really hope that we can become colleagues. Unfortunately, not now."

"why?"

Ren Zhong looked back at Qiqi, smiled, and said slowly: "Although I have never met the Marquis of Zhenjiang, I have heard Brother Marvel tell me about the origin of the Marquis of Zhenjiang. I admire the Marquis very much. Homeland feelings. On the way to the empire, I also experienced the power and fear of the sublimator at close range. Many of my comrades died at the hands of the sublimator. This obsession for revenge has always dominated me. Zhenjiang and I Hou has the same enemy. Therefore, I must at least accomplish some goals on the battlefield before I can really calm down and engage in scientific work."

Hearing this, the High Commissioner only showed helplessness, and said: "It would be too sad for a person like you to spend his precious life on a battlefield with such a bleak prospect. The Academy of Sciences believes that only by making a qualitative change in technology Only breakthroughs can create overwhelming advantages on the battlefield. Engaging in science is also for war, and the two do not conflict."

Ren Zhong suddenly showed a sneer, "Really? This is really beautiful. But the problem is that such a huge Royal Academy of Sciences, the number of scientific research practitioners is too large to be counted, and they can't even explore the optical principle of a material. Only I know that this thing has this function and can be used in this way, but I don’t even understand why these three words. What qualifications are there to talk about science? Can just this level defeat the sublimator? Brute force method is the worst in science Technical content, but the Royal Academy of Sciences seems to be obsessed with it. But in the field of brute force, are we really better than sublimators who have taken biological methods to the extreme? You should know that it is just a fourth-class empress. What a huge brute force mutation evolution is going on in its body all the time. I think that only the pursuit of the lowest principle can cause qualitative change. Therefore, we are actually different in terms of scientific concepts .”

Ren Zhong's words were a slap in the face, and he really didn't save any face.

His so-called difference is that he just scolded without pointing his nose, "You are worthy of talking about science in front of me".

Those who can become senior commissioners in the affiliated institutions of the Royal Academy of Sciences are basically regarded as real scholars.

For scholars, other wealth status and even titles may not be particularly important, but the only thing that can't be sloppy is academic ability and academic reputation.

As a result, the high commissioner suddenly felt a sense of irritation after being offended.

If someone else dared to say that, they would definitely offend the High Commissioner and the Yuanjiang branch behind him to death.

But the subtle thing is that the high commissioner's anger only lasted for a short moment before he calmed down on his own.

It wasn't that he was afraid of Ren Zhong's Earl status, nor was he afraid of Zhenjiang Marquis represented by Qi Qi next to him, it was purely because of his last thought that he admired Chi Feng Bo Ren Zhong very much, and even admired Chi Feng Bo Ren Zhong secretly. In a second, he was slapped on the face by the person he secretly admired.

Although he felt humiliated, he couldn't feel much resentment for no reason, only vaguely depressed, even ashamed.

"This...you...Uncle Chi Feng...you...how could you..."

The high commissioner's lips trembled, and he wanted to refute, but he was so lonely that he couldn't speak, and all ten toes were tightened in embarrassment for a while.

Chapter 560 King's Landing

Seeing his attitude, Ren Zhong also sighed, "I'm being serious, sorry. I didn't take into account the objective situation. After all, human technology has developed to the point where it is now. If you want to continue to improve and make achievements in theory , It is indeed too difficult. But all laws of the universe lead to the same goal. Although I cannot join the Royal Academy of Sciences due to personal reasons, it does not mean that I will put aside my scientific ideals. You should have heard of my Chifeng Academy of Sciences. The level is obvious to all. I will still try my best to find a way out with my own method. In the future, you and I will still have a day to work together. After all, everyone is working for His Majesty the Emperor."

Hearing this, the High Commissioner calmed down a little and nodded, "That's right. It's just that I am a little ashamed after all. The basic theoretical problems hidden in the optical principles you mentioned are actually not completely unstudied. But the difficulty is too great, and the things we are pondering are too illusory. With our equipment and our thinking, we can only see in the clouds. Purely relying on the brain to deduce and calculate is still futile. Not to the extent. Looking at the flowers in the fog, there is at least an outline of the flowers, but when our academic staff look up, they can only see a piece of chaos and nothingness, and there is no way to start. Bitter. This is probably the origin of the carbon-based life of human beings. That's where thinking is limited, right?"

After talking about it, the high commissioner looked eagerly at Ren Zhong, as if he wanted to get a definite answer from him.

In fact, at this time, among the high-level executives of the Yuanjiang Branch, many people were gathering in a small meeting room, watching this scene quietly.

Ren Zhong looked at each other.

However, he thought of the terrifying electron cloud icosahedron again.

He already had the answer in his heart.

As he once said to Sun Miao, the icosahedron not only squeezes human brain power and shortens human life span, but also secretly builds an invisible layer outside the storm of quantum entanglement laws in human brain thinking. The wall that locks the human mind.

When thinking is locked and the realm of theory is closed, what else can we do other than use exhaustive methods to explore science like Sisyphus climbing mountains day after day and year after year like pushing stones?

Ren nodded, "Maybe. But the problem now is that if we don't break through these limitations, we seem to be gradually doomed under the threat of sublimators, pilgrims and mind demons. This is not a sudden process, but History and the current situation tell us that the situation is indeed becoming more and more unfavorable to the empire, and the status quo is constantly reverting to this possibility. We can't sit still, so we have to try to see if we can find a new way, anyway, it can't be worse, right Bar?"

After saying this sentence, Ren Zhong turned around and left without leaving any memories.

Qi Qi also followed up immediately, doing the standard little follower posture.

In the reference room of the design institute, only the commissioner was left alone in the wind, silent for a long time, unable to speak.

He failed in poaching.

What's worse, not only did he fail to poach people, he even wavered himself.

In his heart, he had a strong curiosity about the Chifeng Academy of Sciences, which had a heavy responsibility, so that the idea of ​​going to the field for a field trip briefly sprouted in his heart.

He also thought that if there is a suitable project in Chifeng Academy of Sciences, it is not impossible to second him there, try to do it, work with the scientific researchers under Uncle Chifeng's command for a while, and feel more personally what Uncle Chifeng said The search for what fundamental science really looks like.

Just when the high commissioner was thinking wildly in his mind, a communication from the senior branch of the Yuanjiang branch rang in his ears, asking him to go to the conference room immediately.

Although he was slapped in the face by Ren Zhong, it was only a matter of academic point of view. The cooperation between Yuanjiang Branch and Ren Zhong was quite pleasant, and it was not an irreconcilable contradiction.

Therefore, the high-level executives of the Yuanjiang Branch did not give up, but wanted to follow the scientific ideal of heavy responsibilities, that is, to find some evidence at the level of pure theoretical research, to prove that the Royal Academy of Sciences is not only exhaustive, but also at the level of theoretical research. Putting in, there is hope for results.

Although with the progress of the times, the threshold for theoretical research is getting higher and higher, the speed of producing results is getting slower and slower, and the ratio of input to output is getting less and less cost-effective, so that theoretical research is gradually declining and dying out.
