Chapter 597 The Reading System Has Been Upgraded to Level 8, You Can Look Forward to It

The Xinghai Group's Xinghuan-1 manned rocket was successfully launched, setting off an upsurge of domestic teenagers' love for aerospace technology.

And Mu Yang also asked the company's publicity department to compile a popular science material to introduce relevant aerospace technology knowledge, and entrusted printing factories across the country to print it, and planned to distribute it to teenagers across the country for free. For this measure alone, Xinghai Group paid a lot of money.

But all of this, Mu Yang thinks it's worth the money, and correctly guides young people to love technology instead of chasing those traffic stars.

Then, just two days later, Mu Yang decided to hold the first Xinghai Group National Youth Science and Technology Competition every two years. Special prize, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th... 9th prize, no limit on places.

Only those who enter the national finals can win the special prize, first prize, second prize and third prize. The bonuses are one million yuan, five hundred thousand yuan, three hundred thousand yuan and one hundred thousand yuan respectively. , implementation plan, achievement display, etc. will be evaluated, and Xinghai Group's scientific research personnel will serve as judges for evaluation.

In addition to monetary rewards, after graduating from university, you can skip the screening stage and enter the interview stage with special, first, and second prizes, and you may even make an exception for admission directly.

Entering the provincial finals, you can win the fourth, fifth, and sixth prizes. The rewards are 50,000 yuan, 30,000 yuan, and 10,000 yuan respectively. The number of places is also unlimited.

Entering the city finals, you can win the seventh, eighth, and ninth prizes. The rewards are 10,000 yuan, 5,000 yuan, and 3,000 yuan respectively. The number of places is also unlimited.

The number of places is also unlimited, but the evaluation method is the same. The final selection results must first be reviewed by Xinghai Group, and the rewards will be officially issued after the review and approval.

In addition to practice, science and technology competitions also need to assess relevant knowledge. Theoretical knowledge accounts for a certain percentage of points. For example, participating in robot design and racing requires assessment of knowledge in this area.

Xinghai Group encourages students to attach importance to technology and also to the application of theoretical knowledge. In the competition, although theoretical knowledge scores only account for 20%, but if you want to win an award, you must pass the theoretical knowledge, otherwise you will be downgraded.

If there is fraudulent behavior, the number of quotas obtained by the province and the city will be reduced in the future.

Moreover, in the national finals, it also has a defense process, and it is not easy for students to fake awards.

In order to promote the development of science and technology, Xinghai Group has invested heavily in this national youth science and technology competition, and has also formulated various rules, such as students winning prizes, and how much the awarding school and instructors can get.

After the announcement of Mu Yang's competition plan, people across the country heatedly discussed it and became the focus of public opinion.

Relevant departments have also issued relevant documents, advocating the promotion of this competition, and recommending that schools actively promote it.

Universities that have cooperated with Xinghai Group also feel that this science and technology competition is very good. After all, such a big reward is no worse than the Olympiad.

For example, Jiangsu and Zhejiang University announced that if they win the national final award of Xinghai Group National Youth Science and Technology Competition, they will take care of admissions, such as extra points, and even recommend admission.

Those who can be recommended for admission have a very high probability of being hired by Xinghai Group. For the school, this is recruiting a student who has obtained employment guarantee before entering the school. The school is very happy. After all, the graduation wish of Jiangsu and Zhejiang University is to enter Working in Xinghai Group is not easy.

This measure of the Xinghai Group has also affected the hobbies of the new generation of students.

Now the city enrolls children in art, calligraphy, dance and other talent and interest classes. Now there is an additional technology option, and it is more promising.

Not long after the Xinghai Group announced this plan, many parents consulted local interest training classes for training in this area.

Now, the influence of the Xinghai Group has penetrated into all walks of life, affecting the lives of the people.

two days later,

The Xinghai Group showed videos of the daily life of the astronauts on the Xinghuan space station.

The outside world has always been curious about what the interior of the Halo space station is like, and how the astronauts live on it.

Walking in space is more difficult than running.

The inner space of the star ring space station is large. On the channel between the inner and outer rings, two one-way slide rails are installed, on which smart scooters can be placed.

The size of the scooter is about the same as that of an adult skateboard, and it is equipped with a lithium battery, which drives the motor to rotate, so as to slide on the slide rail.

Sound cannot be transmitted in a vacuum, but the interior of the space station is not in a vacuum state. Its environmental control and life support system imitates the atmospheric environment of the earth. The atmospheric pressure, atmospheric composition, temperature, and humidity in the spacecraft are all close to those of the earth. The above can be transmitted through the medium.

The astronaut's feet are stuck on the buckle belt on the scooter, and the speed of the scooter can be controlled by voice control or by holding a remote control. The fastest taxiing speed can reach 8 meters per second.

Of course, this is definitely not the upper limit of the speed of the scooter, it is only limited for the safety of personnel.

The channel diameter of the star ring space station reaches 180 meters, and the circumference is about 565 meters. It takes 70 seconds to glide around at the fastest speed.

But if there is no scooter, it will be more troublesome, and it is estimated that it will take several times more time.

Astronaut Luo Xiang demonstrated how to use the scooter, saying: "Without this scooter, it would be troublesome to walk without gravity.

In the past few days, with this scooter, it is much more convenient for us to walk.

Of course, we also have smart iron-absorbing shoes, which can actually walk after wearing them. I am very grateful to our colleagues in the company for designing such a user-friendly tool. "

The inner height of the first floor of the space station is four meters, and the length of a single room can reach ten meters, which is very spacious.

In the video, Luo Xiang slides slowly while introducing the internal situation. First, he comes to the door of a gym, stops the scooter, and walks off from it.

He was wearing iron-absorbing shoes and stepped on the floor of the room. The floor was inlaid with a layer of 1mm aluminum plate, and a layer of 0.2 thick "iron" skin was sandwiched between the aluminum plates. This iron is not carbon steel, but martensitic. Stainless steel, "magnetic" available.

The gym is composed of several rooms, with an area of ​​up to 200 square meters. There are various training equipments in it, and many people don't know it.

"We spend an hour or two on training every day to ensure that the muscles of the human body do not atrophy. There are many facilities on the space station, with a lot of space, and the living is very comfortable, but the diet is a little inconvenient, and we can't eat hot pot."

After Luo Xiang introduced the gym, he came to the agricultural planting area. The internal area is about several hundred square meters, and there are many closed glass houses.

"This is the focus of our experiment. Due to the limited manpower, we plan to plant a greenhouse with tens of square meters of vegetables first.

Growing plants in space is a very difficult task and will encounter many problems, such as light, gravity, air, moisture, temperature, nutrition, and diseases and insect pests. "

"The intensity and frequency of light in space are different from those on Earth, and we are indoors, so we cannot use light from space. We need to use a special lighting system to simulate the lighting conditions suitable for plant growth. The power used by the lighting system is solar energy. , for now, this aspect is not a problem.”

"In terms of air, we need to use an artificial air circulation system to provide plants with necessary gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide;

Water resources are treated water used by the space station to supplement the water needed by plants.

It has to be said that water in space is very scarce, and we cannot collect water from space and transport it directly from the earth. All the water used in the space station must be recycled. Our space station has a sewage treatment system, which is reused after going through multiple processes.

Some friends may be very curious about whether it is possible to take a bath in space, and whether the frequency of bathing is high.

We can take a shower on the top, if it is not necessary, try to wash as little as possible, but you can't bathe casually like at home.

Our chairman once told us that if you can’t take a refreshing bath in the space station, it means that our space station still needs to be improved. "

The astronaut pointed to the glass greenhouse in front of him and said: "This greenhouse is temperature-controlled, and the soil is a little special. It is mixed with the plant nutrient solution needed by the plants to provide the plants with the necessary nutrients to ensure faster growth of the plants."

"Now, we have two main problems. The first is the lack of natural enemies of pests and diseases in space. Although special pest control systems can be used to protect plants from pests and diseases, our hope is to form a natural ecosystem. , this is the direction of our in-depth research;

The second problem, of course, is gravity. It is necessary to use artificial gravity equipment to simulate the gravity conditions suitable for plant growth, otherwise it will affect the growth and development of plants.

You can imagine that if there is no gravity, the tomatoes grown may be different from those on the earth.

Even if the appearance is the same, the quality will have a great impact.

Planting in space is a difficult problem. If we can achieve it, we don't need to supplement food on the ground.

Now, we've just started this project and we hope it will be successful. "

After introducing the planting area, I will introduce the shower room that everyone is more curious about.

The bathroom in space is of course different from the one on earth, it is a closed space.

You need to use special equipment to create artificial gravity when taking a shower to avoid water floating in the air and also to prevent water from running out of the bathroom, so it must be airtight.

The Xinghai Group put a lot of thought into developing this special shower room. Therefore, it is impossible to realize an independent shower room on the space station, but it is shared by multiple people.

"We use high-pressure water to wash the body, and there are water-absorbing devices around the shower room to prevent water and soapy water from floating in the air.

After taking a shower, we need to dry our bodies with wet wipes to avoid water droplets floating in the air.

Our dirty clothes can be cleaned with a dedicated washing machine. I guess you can't imagine it. There are washing machines on the space station.

Sewage from bathing and washing clothes will be collected, filtered and disinfected, and can be used again for living and working, or for planting. "

Astronaut Luo Xiang mainly introduced these interesting things in daily life, and Xinghai Group released these videos that can be made public.

Not only the common people, but even their peers couldn't imagine that the Xinghai Group was so advanced in space station technology, and thought it was just an empty shelf.

Mu Yang is also troubled by the problem of gravity in space. The gravity technology of the level 7 reading system cannot meet his needs. It seems that he has to wait until level 8.

If there is no system store at level 8, there is a gravity technology reward in the desert greening rewards, provided that one thousand square kilometers of desert greening is completed.

However, Mu Yang can only choose one of the four options, a new energy technology, artificial gravity technology, two sets of Iron Man nano suits, and two sets of Spiderman suits.

What Mu Yang wants most is the nano-suit. Even if the reading system reaches level 8, or even level 9, it may not be possible to manufacture this kind of battle suit. That is completely a product of human fantasy in science fiction movies.

And artificial gravity technology is indeed a product of science fiction, and it may not be available for purchase from the 8th grade reading system.

From the perspective of his own safety, Mu Yang still prefers nano-suits, without artificial gravity technology, and the development of science and technology is delayed at most.

But if the life is gone, then it is really gone.

One year ago, the greening team completed 150 square kilometers of desert planting.

Now, the number of staff in the greening team has increased a lot, and a lot of smart devices have been added. The planting efficiency has been much faster, and 2,500 square kilometers of greening have been completed.

However, this green land has not yet become a vibrant and vibrant ecosystem, so it cannot be rewarded by the system.

Mu Yang estimates that it will take two years if it is fast, and it will still be under the condition of sufficient water resources.

It has been more than a year since the construction of the east-to-west water diversion project, and it is still far from the goal of putting it into use.

back on topic,

If Mu Yang really came up with artificial gravity technology, it would be of great use.

Not to mention the application of the entire space station, it can be applied in the control center, cafeteria, and shower room to make work more convenient and allow people to eat and drink normally like on the earth.

Therefore, "being able to eat hot pot" has become Mu Yang's next goal.

Therefore, an important task in the next few years is to upgrade the Reading System to Level 8.

It has been more than five years since it was upgraded to level 7 on January 1, 2014, and the progress of the three upgrade requirements is relatively smooth.

To build a smart city, the first phase has been delivered, and there are four more phases. Currently, the second and third phases are under construction. It is planned to sell the second phase on July 1 next month, and the third phase will be sold on December 1 at the end of the year.

Muyang's first batch of students, Leng Han and Jin Wei, have to reach the level of first-level civilized junior scholars in scientific research, which is expected to be done in 2021.

To upgrade, ten students need to reach the first level of civilized junior scholars.

Mu Yang currently has 20 student quotas, but only 8 students. He plans to recruit another 7 students after the results of the college entrance examination, selected from the outstanding students of this year and last year.

There was no enrollment for a year in the middle, which disappointed many students.

There is no way, he is too busy, so he has a lot less to do with educating students.

The third requirement for the upgrade: space plane + moon landing

For Mu Yang, this request is not difficult.

The aerospace plane may be developed next year, and if it lands on the moon, it may be realized in the next year or two.

Therefore, the most delayed thing is to require ten students to reach the first level of civilized junior scholars.
