The results of the scan were quite satisfying.
Originally, the Institute for Advanced Study was unable to analyze the technical details of the Hall-effect thruster unit. However, under the illumination of the scanner gun, all of the secrets were revealed.
After the data collection was completed, the light blue beam began to dim. The two components that were illuminated by the beam returned to their original metallic luster. As for the scanner gun in Lu Zhou's hand, it began to lighten as the light dimmed. Finally, it turned into fine black sand and slipped through his fingers, leaving behind a thumb-sized USB.
Lu Zhou inserted the USB into his laptop and waited for a while.
The moment the transmission progress bar finished reading, the USB flash drive also turned into black gravel and disappeared into the air.
"The materials used by this stupid system are so environmentally friendly."
Lu Zhou shook his head and walked forward. He then pressed a few buttons on his laptop.
Soon after, a three-dimensional composition appeared in front of him.
Every detail of the Hall-effect propulsion array was displayed on this three-dimensional image that could be infinitely enlarged to the molecular level.
Lu Zhou stared at the three-dimensional image for a while. He rubbed his chin and suddenly spoke.
"Xiao Ai, are you confident you can build one?"
A pop-up window appeared on the bottom right corner of the screen.
[This thing is too small. I'm afraid it won't be possible to build it with a normal industrial robot. (́ _ ́) ́]
"Then what tools do you need?"
After around two minutes, another pop-up window appeared on the bottom right corner of the screen.
Lu Zhou clicked on it and saw a list.
There was a lot of production equipment on the list, from metal cutting machines to coordinate boring machines to high-precision laser engraving machines. There were more than a dozen pieces of equipment that made Lu Zhou's scalp tingle.
"… If I can buy it, I'll try my best to buy it for you. If I can't, there's nothing I can do."
After all, some things couldn't be bought with money.
[Okay! Just try your best. If you can't, I'll think of something else for you! (> ▽ <)]
Even though this sentence seemed very reliable, Lu Zhou still felt like he couldn't relax at all.
However, he couldn't think of a better idea now, so he could only leave it at that for now.
Lu Zhou made a copy of the data collected by the scanner gun on Xiao Ai's supercomputer. He then closed his laptop.
Glancing at the debris piled up in the corner, he pondered for a moment.
Everything that needed to be analyzed had been analyzed. How should they deal with this garbage?
After thinking for a while, Lu Zhou finally shook his head.
Forget it, just in case, I'll keep it for now …
…
The problem of the Hall-effect propulsion unit was basically solved. There was only one problem left to solve for the space shuttle on the blueprint.
The miniaturization of controllable fusion.
But before that, there was an even more crucial problem that needed to be solved.
That was to complete the last question of the Yang-Mills equations and solve the problem of the Yang-Mills existence and mass gap!
Only by explaining the existence of the Yang-Mills existence and mass gap could he connect the electromagnetic force and the strong interaction force. This would lay a theoretical foundation for the miniaturization of controllable fusion.
Of course, it was not easy to achieve this.
It could even be said that this was the most difficult problem in the Millennium Prize Problems related to the Yang-Mills equations!
After staying at the Institute for Advanced Study for a day, Lu Zhou went to Jin Ling University the next morning.
When Lin Yuxiang saw Lu Zhou walk into her office, her eyes lit up. She immediately grabbed a magazine and greeted him with a smile.
"Professor, Nature Weekly sent the sample issue over."
Lu Zhou took the magazine and glanced at the cover. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Already?"
Are British reporters that fast?
"Mhm, it was sent to the mail room last night. I just received a text from the mail room, so I came to pick it up." Lin Yuxiang put her index finger behind her and said with a smile, "You look very handsome on the cover."
When Lu Zhou heard this, he smiled embarrassedly.
Although he thought so too, he still felt a little embarrassed when he heard it from someone else.
Lu Zhou walked to his desk and sat down. He placed the magazine aside and took out a piece of draft paper from his drawer. He gently tapped on the paper with a ballpoint pen and began to research the last question of the Yang-Mills equations.
Actually, when he first found the general solution of the Yang-Mills equations, he already had a vague idea of how to solve this problem.
Referring to the method used by Weinberg and others to study the unified electroweak theory, he could try to introduce a scalar field on a space-time manifold to this problem. Under the action of the gauge group U (2) * U (1), the two components of the group would represent the change. This would solve the problem of zero mass of the strong interaction Yang-Mills field and represent the strong interaction and electromagnetic interaction in a unified way.
Just as he began to think about this problem, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.
Lu Zhou sighed and put down the pen in his hand. He picked up the phone and put it next to his ear.
"Hello?"
Without any unnecessary greetings, a pleasant voice quickly came from the other end of the phone.
"Your 'express' has been approved."
When Lu Zhou heard this, he was so surprised that he forgot to complain.
"Already?"
If he remembered correctly, he had called Chen Yushan yesterday morning to tell her about this. It hadn't even been 24 hours.
Chen Yushan smiled and said, "When the municipal government heard that Star Sky Technology was going to build a space shuttle factory in Jinling, they immediately took out a map and asked us where we were going to build the space shuttle factory. They asked us if we needed a loan or something. You know the current economic situation, the local government wants us to stay and create jobs for them. "
Of course, there were some things that Chen Yushan didn't say.
Ever since the 2015 conference, military-civilian integration became a national strategy, and the local government wanted more companies like this to exist. Compared to the political achievements behind this, being able to create economic benefits was secondary. Even employment was a small matter.
Lu Zhou: "Employment … I'm afraid they'll be disappointed. We won't need a lot of people."
Chen Yushan smiled and said, "That's fine, the local government is more than willing to cooperate with companies like ours."
Seeing how Chen Yushan said this, Lu Zhou didn't say anything else.
But at this moment, he just happened to remember something.
"Oh yeah, I need you to help me purchase a batch of equipment."
Chen Yushan: "What equipment?"
Lu Zhou thought for a bit and said, "Some industrial equipment that needs to be used in the production process … There might be a lot of things, I'll email you later."
