Back at the surface, Jiang Chen immediately found Xu Lu and explained her his thoughts on submarine mining.
Subsea mining?
Xu Lu looked at Jiang Chen with some confusion. The minerals that had been discovered on the earth had basically been mined.
Even if there are still undeveloped deposits left in the mantle below the Moho surface or the deep sea thousands of meters below, it is difficult to carry out due to problems such as excessive mining costs and serious geological environment damage.
In addition, due to the emergence of space elevators that have greatly reduced space costs, mining technologies in the 22nd century have basically begun to develop in the direction of space mining.
It can be said that in the 22nd century, undersea mining was a technology that was eliminated by the times, just like thermal power generation.
That's right, the submarine mining technology is best for automated ones.Can it be done?Jiang Chen asked.
It is possible to do it, after all, those are technologies that have been eliminated... But are there mineral deposits in the coastal area of Shanghai?Xu Lu said in confusion.
You don’t have to worry about this. I will make other arrangements for where to mine.Jiang Chen smiled.
Seeing Jiang Chen say this, Xu Lu nodded.
Well, I will set up another scientific research project team to be responsible for the restoration of submarine mining technology.However, there is only one quantum computer now, and if the scientific research project team is added, it may slow down the research and development efficiency of other scientific research projects.
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned. He was not a scientific research profession, and he still didn't understand the dependence of scientific research on quantum computers in the 22nd century.
In fact, many people born after the war also don’t understand it very much, but Xu Lu comes from before the war after all, so she still knows it a little bit.
He read the confusion on Jiang Chen's face very keenly, and she briefly spread the reasons to him.
The powerful functions of quantum computers can accurately simulate physical environments at the level of quark particles, allowing many experiments to be simulated in pure mathematical environments.
This not only facilitates excluding interference terms in the experiment, but also allows physical and chemical reactions that take several days to complete in reality in one second or even less.
Of course, this is just one of the features.
After hearing Xu Lu talk about this, Jiang Chen finally understood why all countries are desperately spending money against the bottomless pit of quantum computers.
Once this thing is developed, it is no exaggeration to say that the country's scientific research efficiency will grow at a geometric explosion rate, and it is not an exaggeration to completely break away from other countries' N streets.
Although many organizations or countries have falsely claimed to have completed the prototype of quantum computers since the beginning of the 21st century, including IBM and Google as typical, their prototypes are actually quite different from real quantum computers. They only use quantum algorithms in algorithms, but their computing speed cannot even exceed that of traditional computers.
Before a major breakthrough in materials science, any false behavior of developing quantum computers is tantamount to being a hooligan.
It’s like it’s impossible to build a skyscraper without inventing steel and cement.
Do you think it is more appropriate to use a quantum computer with several scientific research teams?Jiang Chen thought for a while and asked in a deep voice.
Judging from experience, it is most reasonable for 10 scientific research project teams to pair a quantum computer...but this is obviously unrealistic.
There is only one refuge, shared by 17 project teams, and one new project team will be added to develop subsea mining technology. This cannot be simply described as crowding.
Are there any production technology for quantum computers?Jiang Chen asked.
Yes, but there are no production conditions.Xu Lu said helplessly.
I think so.
Jiang Chen also smiled helplessly.
Let’s do this. Since the number of scientific research project teams cannot be increased, the people on the ground cannot be idle.Although it is difficult to carry out scientific research without a quantum computer, they should still be able to easily handle wasteland technology recycling and data sorting.
OKXu Lu nodded.
……
The northern suburbs of Shanghai.
A figure was walking on the cracked concrete road.
The gray hood covered his face, and from the broken collar, he seemed to have experienced a fierce battle not long ago.
Affected by the war, major traffic arteries such as bridges were basically destroyed in bombing, and the Riverside Bridge across the tributary of the Yangtze River was even bombed into several blocks, but this did not affect him.
He threw out his hook claws with his right hand, and he jumped out in an incredible posture, swinging across the viaduct more than ten meters high like a monkey.
His feet fell heavily to the ground.
He breathed a sigh of relief after standing firmly.After crossing this river, it does not belong to the boundary of Shanghai.
A roar of dead claws came from the distance behind him, but it soon disappeared.
He pulled off his hood with his hook back to the belt around his waist.
Huh, really won’t chase it out.
This face is exactly Lin Chaoen.
A holographic map appeared two inches in front of his pupils, and his mechanical eyeball shrank slightly, and his gaze moved to the west.
The density of zombies outside the jurisdiction of Shanghai is very low, while the density of relative heterogeneity is higher.
However, these xenogra seem to be different from those in Shanghai and do not show obvious aggressiveness, at least not for this electronic man.
A dead claw wandering among the ruins passed by Lin Chaoen, and just sniffed, and gave up the prey full of metal and silicone.
Several survivors shriveled in the dark watched Lin Chaoen pass by Dead Claw in fear.They couldn't figure out why Dead Claw didn't attack this man.
The electronic eye swept through these people, and Lin Chaoen ignored these poor people and walked straight towards the target.
It was very safe along the way. Except for the two groups of blind bandits who delayed him for more than ten minutes, they basically encountered no trouble.
After walking for about two hours, he finally stopped in front of a warehouse.
A man with a cigarette butt in his mouth walked out of the shadow, and with him several soldiers carrying rifles were also coming out.Judging from the logos on their clothes, they are all from the Crimson Chamber of Commerce.
You are late.The cigarette butt man vomited a cigarette ring and grinned.
It was delayed for a while.Lin Chaoen apologized politely.
The man glanced at the blood on his face that had not yet dried up, and did not ask why he was late, so he reached out to take off the cigarette butt.
Then start.
Lin Chaoen did not answer, and walked past him and towards the door of the warehouse.
He stretched out his index finger and pointed it on the circle of the warehouse door panel.
Fingerprint recognition?The cigarette butt man asked.
Electric signal identification.Lin Chaoen replied simply, then took two steps back.
The door panel opens, revealing the things stored in the warehouse.
The cigarette butt man's pupils tightened.
A whole warehouse filled with B-shaped steel.Roughly estimated, this pile of materials has at least 1,000 tons!
It's really unbelievable, how could you be so rich?A trace of greed flashed in the cigarette butt man's eyes.
In the sixth block, the price of 1 ton of B-type steel has soared to 100 sub-crystals, and these 1,000 tons of B-type steel can be sold for 100,000 sub-crystals!
However, thinking of what the boss told him, the greed in his heart gradually cooled down again.
These are all the property of my father and were purchased before the war.Looking at the cigarette butt man, Lin Chaoen did not care about the change in his expression on his face, and said in a plain tone, as agreed, half of this pile of steel is controlled by you.The other half, I need you to produce the parts I need according to my requirements.
After pausing for a moment, Lin Chaoen showed a very gentlemanly smile on his face.
Of course, if I can’t see anything in a month, the consequences may be a little unpleasant.
This smile is cruel.
