Chapter 153 (Chapter 153 (Updated on the 20th...)
Although the first alarm of the earthquake prediction instrument was a false alarm, Song Yao was not disappointed at all.
The child said generously while eating roast rabbit: "Scientific research is like this. You can accumulate nine failures, or you can accumulate ninety-nine, or nine hundred and ninety times, so there is no need to make a fuss."
Zhou Yi, who was happily eating rabbit meat, suddenly felt unable to swallow.
Song Yao has always been very confident, and even though he said so, it seems that he doesn't have much confidence in this project.
I was a little worried on Monday:
"Yao'er, we haven't really failed nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine times without success, right? Then when will we have to wait?"
Wang Duo also chimed in: "Yeah, Yao'er, didn't you say that an earthquake could come at any time, and we have to do it as quickly as possible?"
Even Yuan Jiang looked at Song Yao.
This child may have been affected by the snowstorm, but he has always been very anxious about the machine that predicts earthquakes, as if an earthquake will happen in the next second.
The progress is not good now, and he is worried that Song Yao will be lost.
However, this time Yuanjiang guessed wrong.
Song Yao continued to nibble on the rabbit leg in his hand without being affected at all: "But this is indeed difficult. We have to prepare for the worst."
The earthquake-prediction machine was different from many things he had done before.
It appeared three hundred years after the founding of Zhongzhou. At that time, the technology developed by mankind no longer had to fear earthquakes. Therefore, after it was developed, this machine did not receive much attention and only existed as a reminder.
About like the current weather forecast.
But even so, that is technology more than two hundred years later. Song Yao is now on the tenth ladder and cannot even reach the edge of an earthquake prediction machine.
Even if Song Yao saves the country through a hobby group, he bought five courses in one go and put together the approximate structure of an earthquake prediction machine. It spans two hundred years of technology, and there is no tutorial to guide you step by step. The chance of making it possible is extremely low. .
But it doesn't matter.
The child ate a little anxiously, so his speech was slurred:
"Anyway, what we do is useful. Even if we fail nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine times, we still can't do it. But as long as we don't give up, we can't say we failed."
When he saw the progress being so slow, he was a little sad because he couldn't accurately predict the earthquake that would happen this year.
But after feeling sad for a while, Song Yao figured it out.
Even if it can't be done this year, earthquakes don't just happen once and then never happen again. The machine they made will one day come in handy and help everyone.
So why are you so sad? This road is blocked. There are other roads. All they have to do is try their best before things happen.
"Didn't the teacher say that it is always difficult to walk on a road that others have not walked before?"
Wang Duo whispered: "Which teacher said that? Why haven't I heard it?"
Zhao Xiaodong replied from the side: "I told Yao'er's teacher."
The children suddenly realized, Teacher He.
They felt instantly at ease.
Because Song Yao and Zhao Xiaodong would always brag to them about how powerful Teacher He was, and how powerful the two of them were under Teacher He's guidance, children always had a filter for He Junwen.
As soon as they heard that it was Teacher He who said it, their faces immediately showed expressions of "then we will be relieved."
Zhao Xiaodong asked again: "What if an earthquake really happens? If we don't do it, there is no way to prevent it."
Song Yao waved the rabbit leg in his hand: "It doesn't matter! The snow disaster happened without prediction. It's not all right now. We can make earthquake prediction machines and work together to protect everyone when disaster strikes."
You guys are familiar with this!
Isn’t that how Snow Penguin No. 1 and Frostbite Cream came about?
Infected by Song Yao's confidence, they couldn't help but become confident:
"Okay! We can definitely do it! We will definitely be able to protect many people by then!"
After the children finished eating the roast rabbit, they all went back to the house to continue their research under the leadership of Song Yao with high spirits on their faces.
Zhao Zhigang was confused when he heard that. He turned his head and asked Song's father: "What are you doing? What kind of earthquake? Is there an earthquake somewhere?"
Dad Song looked accustomed to it: "It's okay, isn't the snow disaster a bit severe this time? Yao'er may have been frightened and started to worry about natural disasters, and wanted to make a machine that can predict earthquakes."
"Can earthquakes be predicted?" Zhao Zhigang's reaction was exactly the same as Song's father's reaction when he heard about it for the first time.
Dad Song: "I haven't heard of it either, but Yao'er is a child who always dares to think and do whatever he wants. If he can really do it, it will be a great thing. As parents, we can just encourage him. ...This rabbit meat is very tender. How do you raise it? Please teach me. I also want to get some rabbits to raise and eat."
"What else are you raising? If you want to eat, just go to my house and get it. You don't know how fertile these rabbits are. I can't even put them in my yard..."
The two dads did not take the earthquake prediction machine too seriously, after all, it sounded unheard of in today's era.
Can earthquakes be predicted? Even a myth would not dare to be made up like this.
In fact, they are not the only ones who think so. The adults who heard about this basically think it is impossible to do it. Those who don't understand just listen to the excitement, and those who understand a little about the principles of earthquakes directly judge it as unlikely.
You know, Western countries have also done research in this area. After so many years, so much money has been spent, and not even a sound has been heard.
But the adults seemed to have a tacit understanding. Even if they thought it was impossible, no one said to these children who were full of fighting spirit and devoted themselves to studying it, "Stop studying it, it won't be possible."
Maybe it's because they have created too many impossibilities.
Song Yao is writing a plan to apply for funds again.
The child is very smart, and he also knows that even if the adults do not stop him, they are not optimistic about it. This plan may not be approved if it is submitted, but he must write it.
Without him, there is no money!
The earthquake prediction machine he really wants to build is not the small half-finished model before, but one that is huge and goes deep into the ground.
And there's more than one.
More than two hundred years later, Zhongzhou will be able to build an earthquake prediction machine that can predict the world five hours in advance, but current technology simply cannot do this.
Song Yao collected five courses and made various modifications and corrections according to the current level of science and technology, and finally managed to control the number to five, which needed to be distributed in various directions in Central Continent.
The production of any one of the five is enough to bankrupt Song Yao, a young rich man.
After he figured it out, he became a Buddhist.
How much manpower, material resources and time will be needed for such a large project?
Children, remember that it took several months to build a house in their village.
If you want to build five tower-like earthquake prediction machines, you can't tell how long it will take.
At least after Song Yao discovered that the lowest standard he could lower required five machines, he immediately decided to focus part of his energy on making products that could protect people and reduce harm.
But doing so means there is a lot of uncertainty, and there will still be more or less casualties.
So Song Yao thought about it over and over, and finally wrote the plan seriously for two days and submitted it.
Even Zhao Xiaodong said after seeing his plan: "Yao'er, it's impossible for the country to agree to it. Such a large amount of work, so much money, and it has to be completed as quickly as possible. It's outrageous."
Song Yao pursed her lips: "I know, but I want to do it."
"If the plan is not approved, then I will give up and concentrate on making equipment that can protect people in disasters. But maybe it can be approved?"
The friends all felt that the ending was doomed.
Afraid that Song Yao would be unhappy, they all said, "I love learning, learning, love me, let's continue studying happily."
What they didn't know was that after the plan was sent to the capital, the leaders held many meetings, large and small, because of it.
It is such a plan that would appear childish and unbelievable in any country, but in Central Continent, experts in this field were immediately recalled and solemnly rehearsed countless times.
This is undoubtedly extremely risky.
Just like Song Yao said before, if you take a road that others have not walked, you will have to endure a lot of hardships.
But maybe it’s because the damage caused by the snowstorm to Zhongzhou is unforgettable for everyone.
Maybe it's because Song Yao's past performance is so like a miracle.
Maybe it's because of various considerations.
On the seventeenth day after submitting the plan, Yuan Jiang received a call.
He, who was always steady, changed his expression after hearing the content, with surprise on his brows.
The tall soldier turned around and saw Song Yao eating quickly.
Because he feels that time is urgent, he has been a little anxious to eat recently. After finishing a bowl of rice, the child put down his chopsticks:
"I'm full! Let's go back to the house and continue working!"
Grandma Song advised him: "Eat more, you will grow stronger."
Song Yao touched her belly: "Forget it, I feel like I'm about seventy percent full. If I eat too much, I'll feel like sleeping, and I won't be able to stay awake."
Yuan Jiang came over at this time and whispered to him the country's decision.
Song Yao was shocked.
The friends were also shocked.
"Really?! The country really agreed to this plan?! So much money!!!"
Yuan Jiang nodded affirmatively:
"It has indeed been agreed, and the leader personally spoke, expressing agreement to build it as quickly as possible. The country will fully support the implementation of this project."
Song Yao, the client, felt as if he was in a dream.
"The country, does the country really believe in me so much? I don't even believe in myself that much."
Yuan Jiang patted him on the shoulder: "You have created many miracles."
"The big leader said that compared to the manpower and material resources spent on building machines, Central Continent cannot accept another natural disaster."
Song Yao's eyes sparkled again.
The child's little body, which had just stood up, sat down and quickly went to serve himself a meal.
Grandma Song: "Didn't you say you don't want to eat?"
Song Yao's face was filled with happiness.
His appetite was greatly increased, and he took a mouthful of rice and said, "The country trusts me so much, of course I must repay it!"
Song's father wondered: "Yao'er, what does your repaying the country have to do with eating?"
Song Yao groaned again: "Because I am very smart! I can also help the country do many, many things."
The child said seriously: "So I want to keep myself healthy, white and fat, which is the best repayment to the country!"
Dad Song: ...It seems to make sense.
Song Yao also felt that there was nothing wrong with his logic.
So he was very confident:
"Grandma, in order to repay the country, let's drink chicken soup and eat chicken drumsticks tomorrow, right?"
"Grandpa, in order to repay the country, why don't you make me another hammock?"
"Wang Duo, can you give me some of your snacks? I don't know why, but I always feel that yours taste better than mine."
"Don't refuse, this is a way to repay the country!"
