Yang Cheng's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that something had happened to Jane?
In a flash, he came to the door of the room!
But the scene in front of him made Yang Cheng not know whether to laugh or cry.
He saw a pile of strange equipment and a pile of heavy and huge books, piled up messily on the ground.
Their owner, wearing a plain white fringed nightdress, with a head of soft amber hair disheveled, was sitting in the middle of this pile of things.
And three large wooden shelves and a tall chair were pressed around at the same time.
Obviously, when Jane was taking something, she accidentally tilted the wooden shelf, which continuously affected the surrounding pile of things, spreading them all over the ground like a domino effect!
What made Yang Cheng particularly interesting was that at this moment, Jane was bare-footed and wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose. She didn't have her usual noble temperament at all. Instead, she looked like a scholarly young woman at home.
Of course, even though this foreign girl was dressed like this, she was still youthful and attractive.
Seeing Yang Cheng standing at the door trying to hold back his laughter, Jane looked discouraged for a while.
"Stop laughing, help me put these books back on the shelf," Jane said helplessly.
"Why are you doing damage at home?" Yang Cheng joked.
Jane said gloomily, "I'm not doing damage. I just wanted to flip through a book, but I heard the sound of you coming in. Then I wanted to say hello to you, but I lost my balance and held on to the bookshelf. But I forgot that these bookshelves are not the bookshelves in my palace in Wales. These are not fixed properly … So, they collapsed."
Yang Cheng finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, "It turns out that you also have such an embarrassing time. It seems that genius scientists are not omnipotent."
Jane's blue eyes showed a hint of evil interest, "The dignified Lord Hades came here to have a heart-to-heart talk with me. What's this little setback?"
Yang Cheng was speechless, coughed twice, and squatted down to help Jane tidy up things.
Jane won easily, and couldn't help but have a smug look on her face.
He didn't expect that he would end up becoming a coolie who had to help move things after coming over to chat with Jane and vent his frustrations.
As Yang Cheng helped her put the thick books back on the bookshelf, he asked in bewilderment, "Technology is so advanced now, why do you still carry so many books? They're all so heavy."
Jane said in distress, "These are the results of my research. Many of them are drawings and detailed formulas. The current computers can't accurately input what I want to record.
Although I could develop a more sophisticated computer, I couldn't record all of the research results. Before I could solve that problem, I could only use the most primitive method of recording it on paper.
However, don't look down on these books. I made these papers myself. Even if they were to be drenched in water in a fire, these books wouldn't have any problems. These papers wouldn't fade or rot for at least two hundred years. "
Yang Cheng was tongue-tied for a while. It was the first time he had heard that there was data that couldn't be entered and backed up by a computer. It seemed that the scientific problems that Jane helped him solve in the past were not her true strength at all. Perhaps no one could understand the cutting-edge fields of her own research except herself.
In addition to the books, there were also many strange instruments and devices. Yang Cheng couldn't understand the role of these things at all.
He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are these things? Why haven't I seen them before?"
Jane put a black ball-like thing back on the shelf, and said with a bit of playfulness and excitement in her eyes, "Of course you haven't seen them before. These are my treasures!"
"Treasures?" Yang Cheng was stunned.
"These are all my inventions in recent years. I'm the only one in the world who knows their role, and I've never made them public. You've taken advantage of me today to see these great works! "
Talking about her inventions, Jane was like a proud little girl at the moment, showing off her masterpiece.
Yang Cheng couldn't help but smile. He glanced around and picked up an exquisite pink headset inlaid with crystals from the ground. Other than being particularly beautiful, there was nothing special about this headset.
"This headset is also your invention? Other than inlaid with crystals, what else can it be great? "Yang Cheng said in disbelief.
Jane smiled mysteriously, "You can try it on."
Yang Cheng saw that the woman was being mysterious, but it didn't matter. He directly put it on and said, "Okay, what's so special about it?"
Jane bit her lower lip and thought for a while. Suddenly, she opened her mouth and said in the Congo language of Africa, "The function of this headset is very amazing."
Yang Cheng was stunned. Why did this woman speak in the Congo language? It wasn't like he didn't know that she was like him, proficient in hundreds of languages.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, there was a standard female voice in the headset, repeating Jane's words in English!
Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment. He took off the headset and said in astonishment, "This headset … … is a translator!?"
Jane nodded proudly, "Yes, this headset can translate almost a hundred languages in the world into English. It can also change the output of other languages according to my special chip. How is it, isn't it amazing? "
Yang Chen nodded. It should be noted that in the current world, not to mention hundreds of languages, there weren't even translators that could smoothly translate two languages. Even if there were, it would be due to the huge size of the device, making it unsuitable to be carried around. Moreover, it would require manual input instead of direct translation.
The scientific research and technology required in this process was really extraordinary.
"If it's slightly modified and simplified, this thing can completely allow the whole world to communicate without any obstacles. You invented such a powerful thing, why didn't you publish it?"
Jane shook her head and said with a smile, "Actually, I made this thing two years ago when I was bored. But after careful consideration, I decided that it's better not to let outsiders know."
"Hmm? Why? "Yang Cheng was puzzled.
Jane sighed, "You may not know, but in fact, the core cost of making this headset is about equivalent to the most ordinary mobile phone. That is to say, as long as it is made, about 50% of the human population can afford it.
Now, there are millions of people in the world who rely on foreign language teaching to earn their living expenses and support their families. If I introduce this machine, even if I contribute it to the world without applying for a patent, sooner or later those who are engaged in foreign language teaching will all lose their jobs … In that case, won't I become a sinner?
Moreover, language learning actually involves in-depth research of various cultures. I think it's better to let humans have that kind of learning process. I shouldn't block such a way of communication. "
Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect Jane to consider this.
Jane didn't think there was anything special about it. After putting back the translation headset that was enough to cause the whole world to go crazy if it was spread out, she introduced other "proud works" to Yang Cheng.
It could be said that these strange but powerful things that made Yang Cheng dumbfounded were actually "handicrafts" made by a girl who was less than 20 years old in her spare time.
Gradually, the way Yang Cheng looked at Jane became somewhat different, and his expression became quite complicated.
When the introduction was almost done, Jane couldn't help but ask, "Yang Cheng, why are you looking at me like that? Do you think my inventions are very boring … If that's the case, I won't say it. In fact, these are all things I play when I'm bored. Because there is no one to tell them, I can't help but say some more."
Yang Cheng shook his head and sighed, "I just feel that it seems that I have never really known you. You are much more powerful than I thought. I suddenly have a little admiration for you …"
"I thought you would say that I am a crazy woman …" Jane blushed shyly and stuck out her pink tongue.
Yang Cheng thought of the woman Hsiao Chih-ching and couldn't help but murmur, "Crazy woman … How can you be considered crazy?"
Jane saw the faint melancholy on Yang Cheng's face and said embarrassedly, "By the way, I almost forgot. You just said on the phone that you have something on your mind to talk to me. I was busy introducing these things. Why don't you tell me now?"
Yang Cheng said with a smile, "It's good to introduce these things. It diverts my attention. I feel much better now."
"You still have to tell me." Jane reached out and adjusted her lens-less empty-rimmed glasses. Her elegant face was full of expectation, "Don't you know that girls have no resistance to gossip about men they like?"
