The Science Fiction World of Xueba

Chapter 479 Interstellar Spaceship

Looking at the man sitting opposite him, Lu Hai still felt unreal.

Pang Xuelin, the name now has a strong influence all over the world.

Not only because he has brought China's ICT industry to the world's first-class level with his own strength, forming a pattern of China and the United States competing for hegemony.

More importantly, today's online world, whether it is the mobile Internet or the traditional PC Internet, is basically created by the man in front of him.

Yahoo, which he built by himself, became the first portal website in history and shaped a new Internet business model.

The penguin he created by himself has become a communication software that monopolizes 70% of the global market. From mobile terminals to PC terminals, the number of users exceeds one billion.

Transwarp Technology, which he personally built, opened the era of mobile Internet, and Transwarp Technology's tablets and smartphones defined a new mobile Internet terminal.

HiSilicon, which he personally built, has become China's most powerful chip design and manufacturing company, which can be called China's Intel.

In particular, the immersion lithography machine technology developed by him has enabled the global semiconductor industry to successfully break the wavelength limit of 193 nanometers of light waves, so that it is expected to explore the lithography limits of 130 nanometers, 90 nanometers, and 65 nanometers.

The 157-nanometer lithography machine invested by ASML, a major lithography manufacturer, which invested about 750 million US dollars in research and development, came to naught.

It is also true that China has changed from a chaser to a follower in the field of semiconductor manufacturing, and even leads foreign countries by a generation in certain technical fields.

As for the companies in which he invests and holds shares or even holds shares, there are more.

For example, the current top three companies in the communications industry, Huawei Technology Co., Ltd., Pang Xuelin owns 49% of the shares.

For example, Taobao, JD.com, and Amazon, which are booming Internet e-commerce companies, all have the shadow of Pang Xuelin behind them.

Not to mention, Pang Xuelin is leading the promotion of a global electronic payment service, this software called Alipay, which is called by Western financial experts as a product that is expected to subvert the financial dominance of the United States.

Even the United States, which has always claimed to be free, had to prohibit companies such as Alipay and Huawei from entering the US market in the name of national security.

"Mr. Pang, let me take it easy. How did you... become a relative of Shui Wa?"

Pang Xuelin smiled,

Said: "Professor Lu, first of all, I want to apologize to you!"

"Sorry, why?"

Lu Hai looked at Pang Xuelin puzzled.

Pang Xuelin said: "Actually, I knew about your nano-mirror film project a long time ago, and the reason why Shuiwa applied for your graduate student at that time was also my decision."

Lu Hai couldn't help being taken aback, and turned his gaze to Shui Wa who was at the side.

Shui Wa lowered her head in embarrassment, and said, "Professor Lu, I'm sorry..."

Lu Hai waved his hand indifferently, but said excitedly, "Mr. Pang, what do you mean, are you optimistic about my project?"

The reason why Lu Hai was excited was not only because of Pang Xuelin's legendary life.

More importantly, it is now almost universally recognized that the young man in front of him has the ability to turn stones into gold.

Even ordinary products can play tricks in his hands.

If Pang Xuelin is really optimistic about his nano-mirror film project, then this project will definitely be saved.

Pang Xuelin said with a smile: "I'm really optimistic. Although your nano-mirror film project seems a bit tasteless, it is of great significance to what I will do next."

Lu Hai asked curiously, "Mr. Pang, what are you going to do?"

Pang Xuelin smiled and said, "Professor Lu, have you heard of the China Solar Project?"

"Chinese sun?"

Lu Hai frowned slightly, and looked at Pang Xuelin puzzled.

Pang Xuelin said: "China's solar project is a project proposed by the aerospace industry not long ago. The purpose is to build reflectors with an area of ​​30,000 square kilometers above the geosynchronous orbit. Sunlight, from the ground, looks like an extra sun in the sky. This artificial sun can affect the weather in many ways, such as changing the thermal balance of the atmosphere to affect atmospheric circulation, increasing ocean evaporation, moving fronts, etc. It’s not clear. In fact, the orbiting mirror is only a part of China’s solar project. The other part is a complex atmospheric motion model. It runs on many supercomputers to accurately simulate the motion of the atmosphere in a certain area, and then find Accurate a key point, and use the heat of the artificial sun to exert an influence, and it will have a huge effect, enough to completely change the climate of the target area for a period of time..."

Lu Hai's eyes gradually became round, and he said in disbelief: "Mr. Pang, you...you mean, this material of mine can be used as the main mirror reflection material of China's solar project?"

Pang Xuelin nodded with a smile, and said: "If you want, I can recommend you to be the chief scientist of China's solar engineering project. The total investment budget of this project is 500 billion U.S. dollars, the state will contribute 100 billion U.S. dollars, and the remaining 400 billion 100 million will be raised by Transwarp Technology. Transwarp Aerospace will be the main contractor and main builder of the project. We will cooperate with China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation to use their new generation of heavy-duty launch vehicles and space shuttles to provide transportation capacity for this project. Support! And your nano-mirror film material will be the most suitable material for China's solar engineering! In addition, Starlink Aerospace will run a brand new project based on this."

"What project?"

Lu Hai stared at Pang Xuelin without blinking.

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly and said: "I plan to use the scientific and technological achievements of China's sun to build an interstellar exploration spacecraft, use the light pressure generated by the solar wind to drive the spacecraft forward, and explore extrasolar stars! Over the years, I have operated through financial capital and The Internet industry has earned more than 200 billion U.S. dollars, most of which have been invested in this project!"

Lu Hai couldn't help but gasped.

Although the outside world does not know how much money Pang Xuelin has, Fortune and Forbes have all appraised Pang Xuelin's assets.

Basically, the forecast is around 100 billion US dollars.

This is the total assets of the company under Pang Xuelin's name.

What did Pang Xuelin tell himself now?

Over the years, he has earned more than 200 billion US dollars, all of which have been invested in this project, and it has not yet affected the company under his name.

How on earth did he do it?

However, this idea only stayed in Lu Hai's mind for a moment, and Lu Hai was quickly attracted by the interstellar spacecraft proposed by Pang Xuelin.

Lu Hai frowned and said, "Mr. Pang, you mean to use the Chinese sun as a solar sail? Theoretically speaking, there is no problem. The main body of the reflector is thin and light, with a huge area. After long-term light pressure acceleration, the theoretical In reality, it will become the fastest spacecraft ever launched by human beings. But this is only in theory. The reality is that a ship with sails cannot sail far, and it must have people on it, an unmanned sailing ship It can only circle back and forth on the sea, and can't even sail out of the port. I remember that there is a vivid description of this in Stevenson's "Treasure Island". To sail and return with the help of light pressure, the reflector needs precise and complex posture However, the Chinese sun is designed for orbiting the earth, without human manipulation, it can only drift blindly along an irregular route, and it cannot drift too far.”

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly and said: "That's right, but there will be people on it, and I will drive it. Of course, one person is not enough, so my wife, and fifteen to twenty volunteers, will be the The crew of the spaceship!"

Lu Hai frowned and said: "Mr. Pang, this is totally unfeasible. Even with the help of the sun's light pressure, the spacecraft will eventually accelerate to one-tenth of the speed of light. Considering the time it takes to accelerate, it will take about 45 years to reach Proxima Centauri. Then With the help of the light pressure of Proxima Centauri to decelerate, after completing the detection of the Centaurus system, accelerate in the opposite direction, and return to the solar system in a few decades. It sounds like a wonderful plan, but in fact it is just an impossible A dream come true."

"You are wrong. After reaching Proxima Centauri, the Chinese sun does not slow down. It passes by it at a speed of more than 30,000 kilometers per second, and accelerates again with the help of its light pressure, and flies to Sirius. If possible, we will continue Jump, fly to the third star, the fourth... We only need a low-temperature hibernation system for life and an ecological cycle system sufficient for twenty people. We are in a hibernation state for most of the voyage, and only when we are close to the stars According to the current technology, this is enough to sustain us to travel in the universe for thousands of years. Of course, the price of these two systems is not low, but compared with the first interstellar manned exploration of human beings, what it costs Only one-thousandth of the capital required.”

Lu Hai swallowed, and suddenly felt that he didn't know what to say.

After a long while, he asked, "Mr. Pang, can I ask you a question?"

"What's the problem, please tell me!"

Lu Haidao: "Mr. Pang, this is almost a mortal journey. Why do you want to promote such a project? After all, this kind of interstellar exploration project can be handed over to our descendants. And once you trigger it, you will There is definitely no way to come back.”

Pang Xuelin smiled and said, "Which version of the reason do you want to hear, the idealistic version and the realistic version."

"What is the idealistic version? What is the realistic version?"

"The idealistic version is that some people are satisfied with their wives and children, and never glance beyond the world that has nothing to do with them; some people spend their entire lives just to see things that humans have never seen before. I have done this kind of person, we have the right to choose various lives, including the life on a mirror floating in space more than ten light-years away. And if the spaceship flies out of the solar system, it will make the human beings in pleasure look up again Starry sky, recalling their dreams of space travel and rekindling their desire for interstellar exploration."

"What about the realistic version?"

Pang Xuelin smiled slightly and said: "Professor Lu, if there is a game where you are invincible from the very beginning, you can do whatever you want in the game, and you have countless resources to accumulate strength. Do you think such a game is still invincible?" Is it interesting? If you are allowed to play such a game every day, will you feel very boring."

Lu Hai was stunned for a moment, then nodded subconsciously.

Pang Xuelin said with a smile: "For me, the earth is such a game. On the earth, I have become the richest person on the planet, and the resources I can mobilize are even higher than many heads of state. In other words, the Earth OL game has already been cleared, and I hope to find new challenges. Using the most primitive technology to complete the most incredible exploration, don’t you think this journey is fascinating?”

Seeing Lu Hai's dumbfounded appearance, Pang Xuelin smiled slightly, raised his teacup and said, "Professor Lu, I will replace wine with tea, and I propose a toast to you. I wish us a happy cooperation in the future!"

"Happy cooperation!"

Lu Hai stuffed down the tea in one gulp.

...

That night, Mu Qingqing cooked for Lu Hai himself.

Lu Hai was a little flattered.

After all, there are many rumors about Mrs. Pang in the outside world.

Most of them are as beautiful as the world, with elegant and quiet temperament.

Obviously, Mu Qingqing very much meets the standards of the outside rumors.

After dinner, Lu Hai bid farewell and left.

Seeing the convoy sending Lu Hai to the hotel disappear far away at the end of the road, Pang Xuelin returned to the manor.

In the bedroom, Mu Qingqing had just taken a shower, she was wearing a silk nightgown, her damp hair was coiled behind her head, and she was sitting on the bedside reading a book.

Seeing Pang Xuelin coming in, Mu Qingqing said, "Alin, did you send him away?"

Pang Xuelin smiled and nodded.

Mu Qingqing asked curiously: "Alin, do you really think that material can help us realize our dreams?"

Pang Xuelin's ideal is to travel the universe on an interstellar spacecraft one day.

Mu Qingqing knew about it a long time ago.

Now Mu Qingqing's ideal is to help Pang Xuelin realize his ideal.

How can a husband ask for a wife like this!

Pang Xuelin got under the covers, took Mu Qingqing into his arms, and said with a smile: "If he can't do it, then no one else can."

After all, China has already proved the superiority of the nano-mirror film material. Next, it depends on its performance in China's solar engineering.

Lu Hai stayed in Lancheng for a week.

Every day that followed, he would come to the manor to discuss some technical details of China Sun with Pang Xuelin.

Pang Xuelin naturally knew everything and said everything.

This surprised Lu Hai.

Because he found that whether he was discussing with Pang Xuelin about scientific principles, engineering implementation, or the management of the entire project, Pang Xuelin could always give extremely professional solutions.

Some solutions put even land and sea to shame.

Moreover, during the past few days of communicating with Pang Xuelin, Lu Hai faintly discovered that the first super rich man in human history with assets exceeding 100 billion was not only a top-notch business talent, but also had a profound foundation in scientific theory.

It wasn't until this time that Lu Hai vaguely understood why Pang Xuelin would go to explore the extrasolar star system at all costs. .

Perhaps, once a person stands at a certain height and touches the boundary of knowledge that human beings can touch, what awaits him will be endless loneliness and solitude.

Only by looking for a brand new world can it be possible to alleviate the symptoms of loneliness.
