Chapter 510 Do You Know Who the Buyer Is?

A news report brought a smile to Xu Chuan's lips.

There is no doubt that this news report is the research results of that girl Xu Xiao's team.

And judging from the reports, this girl made a crucial contribution to the project.

It really makes people feel proud.

After reading the entire report, Xu Chuan put his fingers on the keyboard with a smile on his face, typed an email and sent it.

After thinking about it, he picked up his cell phone from the table and made a prestige video call.

The video connected after a few beeps, and a familiar face instantly came into view.

"Dude! You must have seen the email!"

As soon as the video was connected, a crisp voice came from the other end of the phone. Xu Xiao, who was wearing a thin coat and a ponytail, was holding the phone, with an excited little face that almost occupied the entire screen.

Looking at Xu Xiao across the video, Xu Chuan smiled. He hadn't seen her for almost two months, and this little girl didn't seem to have changed much.

Nodding, he smiled and said, "Well, I saw it, good job."

Hearing this, Xu Xiao suddenly narrowed his eyes happily: "Of course, you don't want to see who I am!"

Although the research process was indeed hard, she finally reaped abundant fruits and was praised by her brother, which brought her great pride and pride.

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Come on, research in this area is still very promising."

"Just like your project this time, it is very promising to restore the vision of blind people through this method in the future and benefit those who are visually impaired."

He originally recommended this sister to study virtual reality for this reason.

Perhaps when it comes to virtual reality, the first thing many people think of is games.

But in fact, the applications of virtual reality go far beyond gaming.

Just like Xu Xiao's current research, using brain wave signal processing to bring light to the blind again is also a part of virtual reality technology.

Xu Xiao pouted and said, "It's still far from enough, brother."

"This time, the implanted electrode array in our research is still a wired device, but if it enters clinical application, key components implanted in the human body for a long time must use wireless devices, and the stability of communication is a huge trouble."

"Also, the "pictures" constructed using the principle of phosphene are still monotonous flashing light spots, which is very different from the rich colors and patterns produced by natural vision."

"Furthermore, the stability of the picture and other aspects need to be supported by algorithms. It is too difficult. If it doesn't take a few years, there will be no hope."

At the other end of the video, Xu Xiao complained, and Xu Chuan listened with a smile. Although he didn't understand what he heard, after all, biological research was not in his field, but he still listened carefully.

This should be a problem that almost all scholars who are new to research work will encounter. They cannot see the end of their research.

It's better for people like Xu Xiao who can see hope. Many times, researchers are quite confused. They don't know whether the path they are studying can really succeed, and they don't know where they are going. step.

Therefore, sometimes researchers can be quite irritable, and at this time someone needs to guide and enlighten them.

Normally, those who hold this position are basically mentors or close friends, but for Xu Xiao, she may subconsciously be more inclined to complain about these things to her elder brother.

There is no way, who let her have such an awesome brother.

Listening to Xu Xiao's complaints, Xu Chuan smiled and said: "There is no need to rush, there is no need to rush, just take your time. One day you will be able to bring this technology to reality."

"By then, thousands of blind people and patients with retinal damage or degeneration will have regained their sight."

After a slight pause, he continued: "Speaking of which, with this result, you should graduate early and enter doctoral studies, right?"

Xu Xiao nodded, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Of course, the instructor has agreed. After a while, I will be able to get a master's degree diploma."

"By the way, brother." As if remembering something, she paused and continued: "MIT sent me an invitation letter, and they invited me to study for a PhD."

"My tutor recommended that I go there. After all, MIT's biology department ranks among the top three universities in the world. I could learn a lot."

"Brother, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Xu Chuan was slightly stunned.

An invitation from MIT?

After thinking for a while, he said: "The biology department of MIT is indeed very famous, but I don't hope or recommend that you go there to study for a Ph.D."

Xu Xiao: "Why?"

Xu Chuan took a deep breath and said calmly: "It's very simple, because if you go there, you probably won't be able to come back."

"The United States does not abide by the agreement as much as imagined, especially when there is a threat to them, and violations of the contract are commonplace for them."

"For example, Mr. Qian or that Miss Meng, both came back after going through a lot of hardships."

"And now, you know very well that your brother, I, can affect the situation and direction of the entire world. If you study abroad in the past, it is very likely that you will never be able to come back. They will try their best to keep you there to use it. Take me or China hostage."

"So, refuse it."

After a slight pause, he continued: "If you want to go out and see the world, you can go to Tsarist Russia or Europe. Your safety in these countries is more guaranteed for me and China."

"At least there will be no situation where you can't come back after going to the United States or Maple Leaf Country."

Although Tsarist Russia and Europe can also be considered Western countries, on the whole, they are not completely in the same mind with the United States.

It's not like going to North America, where the influence of the United States is too great.

Miss Meng from Warwick is still stranded in Maple Leaf Country and can't go home. Xu Chuan can imagine what the consequences will be if Xu Xiao goes there.

In fact, if you really want to be completely safe, staying in China is the safest.

But there are some things that, to be honest, you can't learn in China.

Just like David Gross said, China is far behind in the research of basic science.

Even if he can bring scientific research resources to this sister so that she doesn't have to worry about these, he can't teach some cutting-edge knowledge and theories.

After all, he is not a scholar in this field.

After his rebirth, he still chose to study mathematics at Princeton, isn't it for this reason?

If he hadn't studied abroad at Princeton, he wouldn't have been able to solve the Hodge conjecture and the NS equation, let alone write a numerical control model of high-temperature plasma turbulence and solve the technical problems of controlled nuclear fusion.

On the other side of the video, Xu Xiao nodded without hesitation and said, "Then just refuse."

She actually thought about this a little bit, but she was just hesitating.

Now that her brother said so, she didn't want to go to MIT and never come back.

She wouldn't complain that she lost the opportunity to study abroad at MIT because of her brother's achievements. After all, there are gains and losses.

Since Xu Chuan became famous, the things she enjoyed with him, whether in study or life, are countless times better than before.

Just like this research, if it weren't for her being Xu Chuan's sister, how could she be highlighted, let alone get the first author of the paper, while the tutor only has a corresponding author.

You know, according to the unspoken rules of the academic community, especially in China, the corresponding author and the first author are originally the responsibility of the supervisor. It is very good for students to graduate successfully by being the second or even the third author.

First author, unless you have a close relationship with your supervisor.

Otherwise, don't even think about it.

After chatting with Xu Xiao for a while, Xu Chuan hung up the video call. Just after picking up the journal paper, his mailbox was refreshed.

He clicked the mouse lightly, and the latest email was sent by Physical Review Letters.

His previous papers, "Theory of Typical Behavior of Small Polarons in Strong Electron-Phononic Interaction Systems" and "Unified Framework Theory of Strongly Correlated Electronic Systems", have been accepted and will be published in the next issue of Physical Review Letters.

Seeing this email, Xu Chuan's mouth curled up, his fingers fell on the keyboard and tapped lightly a few times, and replied with a "Thank you, hard work".

The unified framework theory of strongly correlated electronic systems has been officially accepted by the physics community, which is naturally worth celebrating and joyful for him.

"Should I release part of the 'Yang-Mills Existence and Mass Gap' paper?"

Looking at the papers that had been approved, Xu Chuan touched his chin and thought.

He had already written the proof paper for 'Yang-Mills Existence and Mass Gap', but he just couldn't find the right time to release it.

It just so happened that he was quite relaxed recently. Although he read books every day, he didn't do much research.

"Forget it, let's wait a little longer."

Shaking his head, Xu Chuan changed his mind.

The 'Theory of Typical Behavior of Small Polarons in Strong Electron-Phonon Interaction Systems' paper and the 'Unified Framework Theory of Strongly Correlated Electronic Systems' paper were just published in the journal. It would be a bit too shocking for him to make trouble again at this time.

And the quadrennial International Mathematical Union Congress will be held again this year, so why not put it before that?

He is still very concerned about the development of the mathematical community.

During the International Congress of Mathematicians, it is definitely a good choice to use the proof of the seven millennium problems to attract attention.

Of course, it is undeniable that this β can also be installed a little bigger.

Although Xu Chuan was not very interested in political power and money, he was still interested in his legend and future textbooks.

On the other side, in Europe, the Germanic country.

In a conference room at the Planck Institute for Plasma Research.

A middle-aged man straightened his clothes, buttoned up his suit, stood up with a smile, and shook hands with Robert Mack, the director of the Planck Institute for Plasma Research.

"Happy cooperation."

Robert Mack also smiled and stretched out his hand: "Happy cooperation."

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "The relevant procedures have been handled, so the transportation of Spiral Stone-7X and the cooperation of relevant technicians will trouble Director Robert."

Robert Mack smiled and nodded, saying: "No problem, I will arrange it as soon as possible. The disassembly of Spiral Stone-7X can start tomorrow, and it can set off for its new home in a week at most."

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Excuse me, Director Robert. I won't bother you anymore and I'll take my leave now."

Director Robert smiled and nodded, sent the group to the door, and then turned back to the conference room.

At this moment, the door to the conference room was pushed open with a bang.

"Did you sell the Spiral Stone-7X?"

The person who pushed open the door and rushed in was Professor Tillman Lunt. He didn't care about breathing, he held the door handle and stared at Robert Mac with trembling eyes.

After the Planck Institute of Plasma announced the suspension of the operation of Helix-7X, he took a leave of absence to adjust after doing the handover work for a period of time.

What he didn't expect was that he received a message from his colleague before he finished studying during the holiday.

The research institute sold Helixite-7X!

After receiving the news, he hurried back to the Planck Institute of Plasma Research and saw the Chinese team that had just completed the exchange and left.

In the conference room, Robert Mack looked at his old friend who had been his partner for many years, walked over with a smile, and said, "This is a good thing."

"Why! I need an explanation!" Tillman stared at him and asked through gritted teeth: "Why sell the Spiral Stone-7X? It is our hard work over the years! Have you forgotten?"

Robert patted him on the shoulder, glanced at the other people in the conference room, and said, "Follow me, this is not the place to talk. You calm down first, and the explanation will satisfy you."

With that said, he took Tillman to his office, made a cup of coffee with his own hands and handed it to him.

Tillman took the coffee without drinking it, and without putting it on the table, he just continued to stare at Robert, waiting for his explanation, as if he would just throw it in his face if he didn't agree with it.

Robert glanced at him. As an old friend of his partner for many years, he naturally knew what Tillman was thinking. After taking a sip of coffee, he explained: "First of all, it was not me who made this decision, but the institute. , I can’t change anything about this,”

"If the institute decides to sell Helix-7X, there is nothing you or I can do to change their view."

Hearing this, Tillman was silent for a moment.

This is indeed true. If the Planck Institute decides to sell the Helix-7X, then there is nothing they can do about it in charge of the Plasma Research Institute.

After all, nominally speaking, Spiral Stone-7X does not belong to him and Robert, but to the institute and is an asset of the institute.

Although he is responsible for the stellarator research project, he does not have so much money to build a Helix-7X.

But this explanation did not satisfy him.

Robert glanced at his old friend and then said, "Do you know who the buyer is?"

Tillman was silent for a moment, then asked, "Who?"

Robert: "China."
