Chapter 443: Very Close
After listening to Ning Chen's introduction, Song Xiyun stood in front of the door and tried it. Sure enough, when the instrument at the door detected Song Xiyun's iris, the door opened automatically.
After entering the room, the lights, air conditioners, air purifiers and other facilities in the room started working automatically one by one, and their fluency was much better than the current smart home technology.
Soon, Song Xiyun discovered more high-tech facilities in this house.
"Ning Chen, the walls of this room can be used as LCD screens! How high the cost of the walls in this house alone is!"
Hearing Song Xiyun's sigh, Ning Chen smiled and explained:
"The cost of this technology seems very high, but in fact, under the condition of mass use, the overall cost is very low. You may not believe that the walls made of this material are even cheaper than the decoration materials we usually use..."
While speaking, Ning Chen directly controlled the screen on the wall through the artificial intelligence in this house and played a movie casually.
The playback effect of this movie is surprisingly good. Even if you are just at home, you will feel like watching a movie in a theater, and you won’t feel any glare from the screen.
Then, Ning Chen performed a new operation, which surprised Song Xiyun again.
"Ning Chen, these LCD screen materials can actually be used for touch screens? Are their costs really as low as you said?"
Song Xiyun still remembers that she spent thousands of Chinese yuan just to replace a screen on her mobile phone. In comparison, the price difference between the two is really too big.
"Of course, in theory, you can even use this screen to meet various needs, whether it is watching videos, playing games or surfing the Internet, all of these are no problem. Even these facilities can be connected through our brain biocomputer technology, and we can directly control these facilities through thoughts."
Song Xiyun tried it according to Ning Chen's method, and the final result really confirmed Ning Chen's statement.
"This is incredible. I can complete almost all operations through my thoughts. Life here really fits the concept of 'science fiction'!"
Although there are some plots related to thoughts in science fiction movies, such plots are often various superpowers related to thoughts, and are rarely linked to details in life. Moreover, such scenes are usually very "empty" and do not provide perfect theoretical support.
But Ning Chen created such a real world. There is absolutely no comparability between the two.
After staying in such a room for less than an hour, Song Xiyun has fallen in love with this room full of automation. Even after the experimental period, she does not want to leave here.
Ning Chen is also very satisfied with the actual experience of the science fiction island. There are not only various "fancy" technologies here, but also some practical facilities, which are also very helpful for improving work efficiency.
In the science fiction island, when a person hopes to be able to stay in work all the time, he does not need to worry about other things at all, because artificial intelligence can help humans deal with various trivial matters, such as cooking, cleaning the kitchen, washing clothes, mopping the floor, etc. Humans only need to do their own work well.
Even at work, artificial intelligence can also give humans enough help and play a key auxiliary role in human work.
After Ning Chen and Song Xiyun lived on the Science Fiction Island for a period of time, other first-time experiencers of the Science Fiction Island also arrived at the Science Fiction Island one after another and started their new life.
Unlike other experiential projects of Star Technology, Science Fiction Island is not a reward for experiencers or a free experience project. On the contrary, if you want to come to Science Fiction Island to experience future life, you need to pay a very high fee.
Because the construction of Science Fiction Island itself consumes a lot of expenses and resources, Ning Chen hopes to recover part of the construction cost of Science Fiction Island in this way, so as not to cause too much loss to Star Technology Company because of this project.
Of course, even so, the enthusiasm of humans to go to Science Fiction Island to experience future life is also very high. The number of people who make reservations is more than ten times the actual number of places, which also makes the final number of places must be determined by lottery.
After arriving at Science Fiction Island, they all gave their own high evaluation of the situation of Science Fiction Island without exception.
"This is really a place that only exists in dreams. Many of the technologies here are more advanced than I imagined. I am willing to come to this island even if I have to pay more money!"
"Before I came to Science Fiction Island, I never thought that I could enjoy such a highly intelligent life in my lifetime. Artificial intelligence can complete most of the work of humans, and humans only need to handle the most core work. I think Science Fiction Island is at least 50 years ahead of the outside world!"
"I think the life that gods can enjoy is nothing more than this. In the science fiction island, we have the most delicious food and the most convenient life in the world. This is the future trend of world development and a real human civilization. Paradise!”
In addition to those who came to Science Fiction Island at their own expense, Ning Chen also invited some of the world's top academic researchers to come to Science Fiction Island for a new life experience.
Naturally, these academic researchers invited by Ning Chen do not need to pay for this themselves, and Ning Chen also hopes that the highly intelligent life in the science fiction island will help them better conduct their academic research.
Ning Chen also hopes that all people will sink because of the highly intelligent life. It is definitely a good thing for people to enjoy better basic living conditions, but someone still needs to continue to conduct various academic research. It can ensure that human civilization will continue to progress.
If they are just ordinary academic researchers, Ning Chen will naturally not care whether they work seriously, because their work can be replaced by current artificial intelligence. In theory, no matter whether they work or not, it will not matter to humans. The development of civilization will not have any impact.
But after all, artificial intelligence cannot solve all problems. At least so far, some of the work of human academic researchers cannot be replaced at all.
What makes Ning Chen happy is that after coming to Science Fiction Island, most of these academic researchers have shown stronger scientific research efficiency than before, and have produced newer and more outstanding scientific research results. .
Although there are a few academic researchers who have not adapted well to the new scientific research environment here, and the output of scientific research results is not even as good as before coming to Science Fiction Island, Ning Chen is still satisfied with the overall situation.
After that, Ning Chen will also consider building a separate "academic island" to create an environment most suitable for academic research, so that the world's top academic researchers can conduct various academic studies more efficiently. research work.
…………
After conducting experiments on Science Fiction Island for a period of time, Ning Chen gained a lot of experimental phenomena that satisfied him.
The first is that most of the latest technologies applied on the science fiction island have been proven to be very successful and can be widely used in real life.
Even those technologies that are relatively unsatisfactory to everyone cannot be described as "complete failures". As long as some details are optimized, people can have a better experience.
Along with the excellent experience of Sci-Fi Island, various relevant information about Sci-Fi Island has also been widely disseminated on major social platforms.
This has made people's yearning for Sci-Fi Island intensify. Countless people hope that they can have the opportunity to go to Sci-Fi Island to experience it in person, even if they pay a high price for it.
On the other hand, after these technologies in Science Fiction Island have been successfully proven, the progress of the system's new generation industrial revolution has also successfully advanced a lot.
Ning Chen looked at the progress of the system interface and felt very satisfied with the progress.
"Sure enough... the emergence of these sciences and technologies has provided a very important foundation for the new generation of industrial revolution. If this progress continues, the completion of this task will be just around the corner."
But Ning Chen would not place all his hopes on these science fiction islands, because Ning Chen knew in his heart that there were some technologies that could not be verified at all on the science fiction islands.
The biggest limitation of the science fiction island is that it is still located on the blue star and cannot form a direct connection with the universe and space.
If you want to truly verify some space-related technologies, you still need to operate them on a larger platform.
It's just that Ning Chen can't quickly determine which technical direction he should choose to start researching, so he can only put this matter on hold for the time being.
On this day, during their free time, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun came to the shore of Science Fiction Island, chatting from time to time while looking at the vast sea.
"Ning Chen, why do I feel that the sea here is more beautiful than the sea I have seen before? Isn't it because of the scenery? Science Fiction Island has also added some special technology?"
Hearing Song Xiyun's question, Ning Chen smiled and said:
"Actually, the seaside scenery we saw is completely real. Of course, we did add some special technology here. On the seaside of Science Fiction Island, we filtered the seawater to ensure that the water quality is the most suitable for viewing. , and the seaside air has also been treated in a similar way. It is precisely because of the blessing of these technologies that you can have the current viewing experience..."
Although these technologies are very detailed, they are not easy to operate in practice. Xingchen Technology can achieve the current level of this detail, which is enough to say how superb technology Xingchen Technology possesses.
"Sure enough, I said that I am a very objective person and will not affect my subjective judgment because of my mood. However, the scenery here is so good. Appreciating the beautiful scenery here is indeed beneficial to our scientific research work. It’s of great help…”
After the two chatted for a while, the topic gradually shifted to work.
"Ning Chen, after this Sci-Fi Island experience, do you have any more important scientific research plans in the future?" Song Xiyun asked.
Although Sci-Fi Island itself is a major scientific research project, it does not have any particularly important new technologies. It is more about the application of some small emerging technologies. Song Xiyun always feels that Ning Chen should have some more ambitious plans in mind.
Hearing Song Xiyun's question, Ning Chen couldn't help but sigh lightly, and then answered:
"Song Xiyun, to be honest, I really have a more ambitious goal now. Although I am not far away from this goal at present, I still lack that last step."
"Ning Chen, then tell me about it, maybe I can give you some inspiration."
"That's right, Song Xiyun, I have always had a goal, which is to lead human civilization and realize a new generation of industrial revolution."
Hearing the words "industrial revolution", Song Xiyun was obviously shocked, because such a goal is really epoch-making.
However, when Song Xiyun recalled the technologies that Ning Chen had successfully developed over the years, she felt that Ning Chen's goal was not so unrealistic.
Whether it was controlled nuclear fusion, room-temperature superconductivity, or brain biological computer technology, they were all closely related to the new generation of industrial revolution.
Ning Chen not only successfully developed these technologies, but also made them maturely applied. These achievements helped mankind move towards the new generation of industrial revolution.
Of course, Song Xiyun also knew in her heart that what Ning Chen was doing now was not enough for mankind to completely realize the change of civilization. Some technologies were needed to achieve further breakthroughs.
"Ning Chen, I think you are indeed very close to this goal. Even if you haven't achieved this goal yet, at least you have achieved almost 70% to 80%."
Song Xiyun's estimate was also very accurate, because in the system's task interface, the progress of the new generation of industrial revolution was indeed close to 80%.
It's just that Ning Chen doesn't know yet in which field to launch an impact in order to make up for this last piece of progress.
