Shanghai.
The headquarters of the ILHCRC.
In order to give the media around the world and all the people who were paying attention to this matter a clear answer, the ILHCRC emptied the conference room on the first floor of the No. 2 building a day in advance and transformed it into the layout of the press conference site.
However, what no one expected was that even though they had made sufficient preparations, the scene was still out of control after the press conference began.
The colorful broadcast vans almost filled the parking lot. Everyone was crowded at the entrance, and the barrier that separated the crowd from the crowd was almost about to collapse.
Everyone wanted to occupy the most advantageous position, and all the media were worried that their cameras would not be able to get the best shooting position. No matter how hard the conference organizers tried to ensure that everyone could enter the venue, it was of no use.
To be honest, this was the first time Luo Wenxuan had encountered such a tricky situation.
Even though the ILHCRC had announced many outstanding results before, such as the Z particle and the Void Theory, even the combination of the two was not as crazy as today …
"Was this the same when CERN discovered the Higgs particle?"
Luo Wenxuan muttered to himself. He stood by the window and looked at the crowd downstairs. He then turned his gaze to the tall and thin man standing next to him.
Upon hearing this question, the tall, thin man shrugged his shoulders and said.
"No … But a similar situation happened earlier."
The person who spoke was Epton Ouellette, a French physics professor who was proficient in four languages.
He used to be the director of the Sayed Laboratory at CERN, but in recent years, CERN did not have any big projects to do, so they sent researchers elsewhere. He took the opportunity to jump to the ILHCRC.
As for now, his position was the director of the Z particle laboratory.
Strictly speaking, Professor Dobrik's discovery of the gravitational anomaly caused by the Z particle was one of the many research projects in his laboratory.
He was also on the scene of the Jinling experiment a day ago. He was one of the physicists who witnessed that historic moment.
"Which time?"
Professor Ouellette: "Oprah's mistake. She was sent from France to the Gran Laboratory 732 kilometers away.
The neutrinos in the Sasso laboratory were 60 nanoseconds faster than the speed of light. You should have heard of this. "
"Isn't that a mistake?"
"Yes, but before confirming that it was a mistake, how many people can be sure that it's not even 0.1% possible? Although it didn't, many people were still shocked by this result. "
"It will be the same this time."
Professor Olet had a fascinated look on his face as he smiled and spoke emotionally.
"The speed of light can be surpassed … This sounds like a fairy tale, but now, I can't believe that we've walked into a fairy tale."
As he spoke, he stretched out his fist and bumped Luo Wenxuan's shoulder.
"Think about how to satisfy the curiosity of those amateurs. They definitely won't let you go so easily."
Luo Wenxuan's scalp went numb at the thought of the crazy crowd outside.
This was supposed to be Lu Zhou's task.
But now, he had gone into seclusion.
Yes, seclusion!
After the experiment, he would go into seclusion!
Who are you trying to fool?
"Can't you give me some ideas?"
"No." Olet looked at Secretary-General Luo and laughed mercilessly. He said confidently, "I'm not the next chairman, why should I do this kind of thankless thing for you?"
After that, he turned around and walked away without looking back.
Luo Wenxuan watched the figure disappear at the end of the corridor until it was finally cut off by the elevator door. Luo Wenxuan slowly came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"I see …"
Previously, Luo Wenxuan didn't understand why Academician Lu would choose to disappear at this time. He even used seclusion as an excuse to avoid doing his own work.
But now, in this instant, he suddenly understood everything.
The reason why Lu Zhou chose to leave at this critical moment and leave such a difficult task to him was not because of seclusion. The real reason was to train him!
Otherwise, with Lu Zhou's personality, why would he let him announce the historic results of the ILHCRC to the world?
Also, this result was done by Lu Zhou himself.
Luo Wenxuan thought about how Lu Zhou thought about so many things for him. He was inexplicably touched.
Especially when he thought about how he complained about Lu Zhou's painstaking efforts, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
I'm so …
Scumbag!
"… But then again, how did Professor Olette know about this? Is it that obvious? "
Lu Zhou obviously wouldn't tell anyone about the next chairman of the ILHCRC, and Luo Wenxuan definitely wouldn't tell anyone.
He didn't expect Lu Zhou to know about this.
However, after learning about this, Luo Wenxuan was actually a little happy.
There were many outstanding talents in the ILHCRC, but many of them were overshadowed by Professor Lu himself. There was no room for them to display their talents at all.
Luo Wenxuan was one of them. It could even be said that he was the one who was overshadowed.
It wasn't that Lu Zhou influenced him, but no matter how many top conferences he had spoken at, no matter how many excellent articles he had published, no matter how cutting-edge his research results were, people basically only knew about the chairman of the ILHCRC. They wouldn't pay any attention to the secretary-general of the ILHCRC at all.
Although he didn't really care about it and was happy to hug the big boss' thigh, it was impossible to say that he didn't have any regrets in his heart.
From a certain perspective, Professor Olet's words were a form of recognition of Lu Zhou's ability.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have said it in this tone …
Thinking of this, Luo Wenxuan's heart gradually glowed with unprecedented enthusiasm.
Even if it's to live up to the expectations of my friends!
Even if it's to live up to Lu Zhou's trust and cultivation!
He had to take on this press conference and fulfill his responsibility as the secretary-general of the ILHCRC —
His responsibility to the community of mankind!
…
The time was on the dot, and the ILHCRC press conference began as scheduled.
Luo Wenxuan, the secretary-general of the ILHCRC, was wearing a suit. He walked to the front of the press conference and gently stacked the booklet in his hand on the podium. He spoke in a clear voice.
"Good evening, everyone, I am the secretary-general of the ILHCRC, Luo Wenxuan.
"Due to work reasons, Academician Lu is unable to attend the press conference. At this press conference, I will replace Academician Lu and elaborate on some necessary issues. "
Like most press conferences, this was basically reading the script. The real highlight was still at the back, which was the answering of questions from the reporters.
The whole world was paying attention to the ILHCRC's experiment yesterday. One could imagine what kind of tricky questions would be born out of curiosity.
It took Luo Wenxuan about 15 minutes to read the speech in his hand from beginning to end. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he sorted out the thoughts of the entire press conference and the possible problems that might arise in a while.
After doing this, he put the speech aside and glanced around the audience.
"Next is the routine Q&A session.
"If you have any questions, you can ask them now."
Almost at the instant his voice fell, the entire venue was like a pot of boiling oil. Pairs of hands were like splashes of oil as they bounced up like lightning.
"Hello, Secretary-General Luo, I'm a reporter from CTV. What does the latest discovery of the ILHCRC mean? Can you give us a detailed explanation for the audience in front of the TV? "
"Of course."
Facing the flashing cameras, Luo Wenxuan tried to calm himself down. He raised his voice and continued, "Through the Z particle clock designed by Professor Lu Zhou, we use the interference effect of the Z particle oscillation on the gravitational bonds between planets to create a long and narrow belt of low space-time curvature. We call it a hyperspace channel."
"It's like a highway between folded mountains. Its physical properties are no different from those of the conventional universe. The only difference is that its curvature relative to the nearby space-time is gentler, and the distance in three-dimensional space is shorter.
"In short, through this hyperspace channel, relative to the same two endpoints in the universe, the photons we shoot from one end to the other actually travel a shorter distance than we see … It's like taking a shortcut."
After the CTV reporter finished asking questions, another reporter with a foreign face immediately stretched out the microphone in his hand and said, "Secretary-General Luo, if the hyperspace theory is proven, what kind of impact will it have on our world?"
"Correction, not if, it has been proven." Luo Wenxuan continued after emphasizing, "The birth of hyperspace theory will have a huge impact on communication, astronomical observations, and even long-distance space activities. Of course, as for when we will be able to sense this effect … it may still take quite some time. "
As soon as he said this, there was a commotion in the audience.
Especially when they heard about long-distance space activities, many people showed obvious excitement in their eyes.
Almost as soon as he finished his answer, a microphone was shot at him again, not giving him any time to rest.
The reporter with long brown hair spoke quickly in an excited tone.
"Hello, Secretary-General Luo, I'm a reporter from the Los Angeles Daily! Does this mean that … as people say, interstellar travel will become a possibility?! "
This question was also what most reporters on the scene were concerned about, and it was also something that many people wrote down in their sketchbooks.
However, after hearing this question, a helpless expression appeared on Luo Wenxuan's face. He sighed softly and spoke.
"Maybe that's possible."
"But I must emphasize that this possibility may have to be put in a distant century or even several centuries before it can be realized by scholars and experts of that era.
"No matter from which perspective, the hyperspace theory is a very perfect start. We have mastered the way to break through the speed of light faster than we thought.
"But if we have too many unrealistic expectations for it now, I don't think this is a wise approach!"
At this time, a reporter stretched out the microphone in his hand and continued to ask.
"So in your opinion, are you pessimistic about the realization of faster than light navigation in this world in the aerospace industry?"
Without hesitation, Luo Wenxuan nodded.
"Yes.
"I'm very pessimistic about this."
