Chapter 1027 New Invitation Letter
The Mirror of Erised's "limited foreknowledge" experiment went surprisingly well.
Perhaps it was Arkhipovna's own purity, or her view of money completely collapsed, or both.
All in all, the "memory tampering" process originally planned by Elena did not unfold - Arkhipovna directly saw the combination of the ternary computer and magical energy in the Mirror of Erised, and they successfully transformed the magic into It is embedded in electronic equipment as a fuzzy quantity.
After a simple reproduction, the problem that had troubled the Hogwarts Institute for several months was instantly solved.
Looking at the equipment in front of her that had been running for more than a quarter of an hour, Arkhipovna still had an expression of disbelief on her face.
"This is really... incredible. I have never thought of directly copying the answer - so it can be inferred that almost all of the scientific research problems hanging in various fields, especially those conjectures that are extremely difficult to prove, can be based on This way to go..."
"Because your previous research and accumulation are sufficient, and in between, we are very lucky that there are no undiscovered theoretical barriers."
Elena replied calmly, "This is just the first step, injecting magic into electronic components. This is the direction we have been trying before. What you see is just a compressed version of trial and error. Afterwards, I concluded that this is not a universal magic mirror.”
"I have also thought about using exhaustive methods to test the numerical equilibrium point, but most of the time we are looking for where the end point is..."
Arkhipovna shook her head, "I can't imagine what would happen if everyone could accurately know the direction of the end point when doing research?"
"Anyway, it must be a bright and wonderful future, there is no doubt about it——"
Elena replied in a perfunctory manner, glancing at Potato Carrot, who was curiously studying the first "magic ternary computer", and Lockhart, who was explaining "single timeline" to Arkhipovna, He gently placed the pen in his hand and blew on the ink.
"By the way, here are some follow-up arrangements, professor, let's take a look together..."
During the time when Dumbledore, Grindelwald and others followed the Legilimency scene, teaming up with Arkhipovna and a group of researchers to realize the details of the magic components of the ternary computer, Elena was sitting next to them. Write and draw on several pieces of parchment.
At the beginning, the two old wizards paid attention to what Elena wrote. Of course, as expected, they were all incomprehensible.
However, with the successful joint reproduction of the "Magic Energy-Electronic-Ternary Computer" research team headed by Arkhipovna, their attention quickly shifted to that wonderful machine that can input and output text—— You know, in Elena's description, it will be the core of civilization in the human world in the next few decades. Even if the two of them are quite suspicious, they will still give the "prophet" some face.
After Elena's "draft plan" took shape, everyone immediately came over curiously.
Compared to a few hours ago, after the success of the Mirror of Erised, Elena's credibility has obviously reached a higher level.
More importantly, after Grindelwald and Dumbledore succeeded in Arkhipovna, they obviously also thought about the role of the Mirror of Erised in the magical world. If the problem of trust can be solved, it will play an important role in curses, The support from the magic and potion fields will never be lower than that from the non-magical world.
"What's this?"
Lockhart frowned and looked at Elena's manuscripts with some confusion.
There were mostly short sentences on the parchment that he couldn't understand, and most of them were agreements.
At first glance, it looks more like Gringotts Wizarding Bank's contract terms mixed with English abbreviations, such as Hypertext Transfer Protocol, User Datagram Protocol, TCP/IP File Transfer Protocol, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol...
On another piece of parchment, there are extremely unfamiliar names, numbers, and country names.
As for the following content, Lockhart, as the person in charge of "WIB", can roughly guess the function.
After all, his name appeared on a similar piece of parchment a few months ago - at that time, the Tianming Group directly dispatched three tactical teams with a total of fifteen people. After a sincere visit, he didn't give a damn. Hesitantly plunge directly into great things.
Not surprisingly, this should be a newly drawn up "invitation list".
"These are all things that we lack in the future, but were temporarily shelved due to lack of hardware -"
Elena pointed to the outermost pieces of parchment and explained unhurriedly.
"There are quite a few connections between the ternary system and the binary system."
"From the current models and calculation results, it can be seen that the ternary computer can perfectly decode and present the existing content of the binary computer - but this process is almost irreversible, and sooner or later it will have to be replaced with an encryption protocol exclusive to ternary in the future. Change In other words, we now have to start thinking about recruiting computer scientists and start building an architecture specific to the ternary system...or, in other words, the magic network."
"Uh...so, you're going to start going...um...inviting again?"
Dumbledore glanced at Elena and said with a strange expression, "Which one is it this time? Professor Lockhart or Professor Alexei?"
If Dumbledore remembered correctly, Elena was the real devil when it came to inviting others to join her.
"According to circumstances, of course, under the premise of voluntariness, both are possible."
Elena replied sweetly, tapping the parchment at hand meaningfully.
"In fact, this is also a 'special rescue' operation. Muggle politics will realize the importance of these technologies sooner or later - and when politics and technology collide, it is difficult for pure researchers to remain neutral, and people This is why the management survival guarantee institution was born.”
"Tim Berners-Lee is a British computer scientist and a researcher at the Particle Laboratory of the European Institute for Nuclear Research (CERN). In early May this year, he released his Web server and client on the Internet - he Call it the World Wide Web - this is a crucial signal for the coming of a new era. If the wizarding world does not want to miss the train, then we must invite him..."
"Joe Postel is an American computer scientist and researcher at the University of Southern California's School of Engineering. He co-wrote the DNS rules with Paul Mocapejos, and... Anyway, given where the two of them live, we're probably going to Make special plans.”
"Winton Cerf..."
"Bob Kahn..."
With Elena's simple explanation, "invitation letters" began to take shape in everyone's minds.
Perhaps they do not understand the future weight of these people and the importance of their current research results.
In fact, in the winter of late 1992, most people in the world did not understand these names and the significance of their research results-but this obviously did not include AI, who had seen the world decades in advance. Linna.
As the Queen of Gringotts Wizarding Bank, she is the eldest lady of the Destiny Group.
As early as the end of the strategy for the former Soviet Union, Elena immediately began to investigate and collect statistics on these "immature" giants who will support the cornerstone of the future Internet world. If they want to seize the opportunity in the future, the wizarding world must occupy the top spot in the information age. position.
Now, the venue for the banquet has been prepared, and it's almost time to send out invitations.
"Maybe we can't invite everyone, but we have to at least find a way to get most of them..."
Elena read out the names of a lot of people and their brief introductions in one breath. Not only Lockhart, but also Grindelwald and Dumbledore felt a little bloated. This was not just a few or ten people. Several people's names.
On Elena's pile of documents, there are at least nearly a hundred names of Muggle scholars.
In addition to those leaders of Internet projects, this time Gringotts directly provided the lists of their respective teams.
Among these names, Elena has many big names who can see the rise in various fields of the Internet in the future...
Maybe when they join the "Human Survival Guarantee Agency", their life trajectories will change, but this will not eclipse their talents. At this time point, since she has the opportunity to make an early move, naturally she will not be half-hearted. A polite place.
Of course, this is somewhat difficult to understand for Dumbledore and Grindelwald.
Unlike the disintegration of the Soviet Union, which could be deduced back then, the information age is unimaginable for everyone in this era.
Even decades ago, Dumbledore and others used magic to establish a "book" similar to the video chat group of later generations, but it was only a privilege limited to a small number of people, rather than truly belonging to the The mark of the times.
Not to mention, the field of remote real-time chat is just a small branch of the information age in later generations.
Dumbledore rubbed his swollen forehead, and finally couldn't help but ask.
"So... those names and those agreements you just read... what effect do they have? Will it have a greater impact than the Soviet Union? Well, after all, judging from the description just now, these are more Communication based on some knowledge and information..."
"Knowledge, never despise knowledge."
Elena raised her finger and said extremely seriously.
"Just as Hogwarts is important to the wizarding world, you should know the importance of knowledge better than anyone else."
"If before the Middle Ages, royal power, divine power, and magic could deceive the people and distort the truth of the world. Today, when basic education and social common sense have begun to become popular, this is almost impossible... They can only guide and encourage . And in the future world, when the threshold for access to information and knowledge continues to lower, this change will be ten or a hundred times that of the Middle Ages in our current society."
"Of course, perhaps at the beginning, these effects will not appear immediately. This is like the first gold galleons being cast, the first wand being born, and the first spell being inscribed. But as time goes by Over time, it will surely spread all over the world.”
Whenever talking about this, Elena has to lament the wonderful timing of the "original work".
In the short seven years from 1991 to 1998, there happened to be the most stable, but also the most drastic technological and social innovation milestone in the human world. At this time, the role of "prophecy" can be almost unlimited. magnify.
Strictly speaking, Elena can even take this opportunity to directly manipulate the entire Internet world and rebuild the glory of the wizard.
However, the world where wizards are superior is not the world that Elena wants to see.
Her wish is to completely break down the barriers between the non-magical world and the magical world, so that everyone in the world can feel the existence of magic, and to allow the power of fairy tales to reach everyone, forming a new era.
Therefore, she must make her move early and grab as many people as possible.
It is not difficult to follow the rules of the original world, replace those in power, and become the new master and those with vested interests.
However, if she wants to reshape an era and all the people on the chessboard, it is not something that the people around her can accomplish now.
If nuclear weapons are the sword of Damocles visible hanging over the heads of various countries.
Then the Internet, and even the lifeblood of the entire information age, is a Pandora's box lurking around everyone.
Only by truly controlling these can wizards be qualified to stand on the other side of the scale in the future, talking and living together on an equal footing with people in the non-magical world, instead of turning it into another form of cold war - that would be too bad. , she didn’t want to see that scene.
From the Internet era to the Magic Network era, this is her banquet.
