I really just want to be a scholar

Chapter 774 The Thrilling Scene on the Flight

The distance between Rome and Paris is more than 400 kilometers, and the fastest flight takes about two hours.

Qin Ke and the others chose the fastest direct flight.

For Qin and Ke, who are used to taking long-distance international flights, two hours is already a short time. They sat in the first-class cabin and continued to study the general solution of the Yang-Mills equation. Naturally, Wei Feng and Wei Jing sat beside him. near the two.

In fact, in order to maximize the safety of Qin and Ke, there are eight seats in the first class, seven of which have been reserved by Wei Feng and his colleagues. .

This "rare" passenger, apparently an Italian scholar, was wearing thick reading glasses, and was sitting in the front row flipping through periodicals, a few seats away from Qin Ke.

Wei Feng and others were in charge of safety issues, and Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun didn't care about this old scholar, they kept their heads down, wrote and calculated, and exchanged words in low voices from time to time.

This is the fun and convenience of mathematics. It does not require any experimental equipment, nor does it choose a time and place. As long as there is a pen and paper, there is a "research room". Most of them can be put into the study of the general solution of the Yang-Mills equation.

"Lime Tsunami Storm Current Circulation Algorithm" is indeed the world's top mathematical processing method for partial differential equations. Even the most difficult direction of nonlinear partial differential equations is still very effective.The Yang-Mills equation has shown signs of retreat under the pen of the two. Qin Ke estimates that if he concentrates on studying, it should not be a problem to solve this general solution problem by the end of July and early August.

Seeing that the flight had passed for an hour, Qin Ke stretched his waist, put down his pen, and pulled Ning Qingyun up to move his hands and feet, so as to avoid the negative impact of sitting for a long time on the body's blood circulation.

The space in the first-class cabin is relatively large, and there is no shortage of drinks and fruits. Qin Ke picked the cleanest grape and fed it to Ning Qingjun. smile.

While moving their hands and feet, the two whispered about the problems encountered in the Yang-Mills equation just now, and suddenly heard someone asking in English: "Excuse me, the two are Academician Qin Ke and Ning Qing from Xia Guo. Academician Yun?"

Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun turned their heads unexpectedly, and saw that it was the old Italian scholar who was sitting in front, and it seemed that he had just come out of the bathroom.

The old man looked to be in his 60s, with gray hair, but his eyes behind the glasses were still blue, and his facial features were deep. It could be seen that he should have been handsome when he was young.

Qin Ke recognized it immediately. He took off his sunglasses and said in English in surprise: "Yes, I am Qin Ke, old man, are you...Professor Campor from the First University of Rome?"

The day before yesterday, he and Ning Qingyun gave a lecture at the First University of Rome, and this Professor Campbell was sitting in the first row of the lecture hall.The reason why Qin Ke could recognize him was also because of the short distance, he often had eye contact during the speech, and in the questioning session, Professor Campbell had raised a quite level question, which left a deep impression on Qin Ke. impression.

As Qin Ke spoke, he gave Wei Feng and Wei Jing who stood up quietly a nonchalant look.

Old Mr. Campbell got on the plane late, so he naturally didn't see Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun who were sitting in the relatively rear seats, not to mention that they were still wearing hats and sunglasses, and they were staring at each other seriously because they were not familiar with their appearance. It is not recognized.

This time he was on his way back to the bathroom when he got up and heard someone talking in Mandarin.It is relatively rare to hear Chinese on a European flight, and it is relatively rare to hear Chinese in the first class. The old man looked at the two curiously, recognized Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, and stepped forward to talk to them.

He took out his business card, handed it over with both hands, and said with a smile: "Academician Qin's memory is really amazing. If I remember correctly, I just asked a question once in your public lecture the day before yesterday, but I didn't expect you to remember it. Go up There were too many people around you in this lecture, so I didn’t have a chance to send you a business card. Let me introduce myself formally. I am Rudene Campol, a professor at the Faculty of Physics at the University of Rome I. My main research direction is condensed matter physics. Yes I am not very familiar with fluid mechanics, but I have a certain understanding. Your special lecture report on NS equations the day before yesterday was very good."

"It's an honor to meet you." Qin Ke took the business card with both hands and put it away, then shook hands with the old man: "I didn't expect to meet you on this flight."

Professor Campbell smiled and said, "I'm going to Paris to participate in the Breakthrough Prize. You and your wife should be going to the same destination, right?"

"Yes. Professor Campbell is also going to give a report? Or will he participate in the award selection?"

Professor Campbell shook his head, and said with a smile: "I am just an audience, and I will not participate in this year's selection. The two of you are very popular for winning this year's Physics Breakthrough Prize. I will look forward to your report." In fact, he is One of the specially invited judges of the Physics Breakthrough Prize, but the identity of the judges is not disclosed according to regulations before the announcement of the prize, so he did not reveal it.

After a brief chat, Qin Ke found that Professor Campbell's level of physics, especially condensed matter, was very high, almost as good as that of Professor Coppert of the University of Munich in Germany.The two chatted more and more speculatively.

Since it was inconvenient to chat while standing, Qin Ke asked Wei Feng, who was sitting next to the aisle, to switch seats with Professor Campbell.

Wei Feng just got up, before Professor Campbell took his seat, the plane suddenly shook violently.

Ning Qingyun was not on guard, and suddenly exclaimed, almost fell down, Qin Ke was quick to hug her, then helped her to sit down, and said with concern: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay, I was just taken aback." Ning Qingyun replied a little nervously.It's actually quite common to encounter such turbulent airflow when flying in an airplane, but before, she was sitting down. This time, Ning Qingyun was startled when she couldn't stand still because she was still moving her hands and feet while standing.

Seeing that she was not injured, Qin Ke motioned Wei Feng and the others who stood up to help to sit down again, and he followed suit.

Professor Campbell almost lost his footing at first, but after being supported by Wei Feng, he sat down smoothly.

At first they thought it was just a small airflow, Qin Ke and Professor Campbell didn't care, and were about to continue chatting, but the next moment, the fuselage bumped again, and it lasted for a while, and then the broadcast in the cabin started When the sound rang, the captain repeated nervously in Italian and English respectively:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the plane is currently experiencing turbulence, and there will be some slight bumps. The toilets are closed. Please return to your original positions and fasten your seat belts. The flight attendants will stop serving meals, which will cause inconvenience to you. beg to be excused."

When the broadcast sounded, the huge fuselage was bumped again, and this time the bump was relatively large, and even the paper and pens on the small table that could not be put away in the future were shaken and fell off.

The most frightening thing was that the violent turbulence continued, and half of the drinks were overturned and fell. The entire cabin was in chaos, and there were a series of exclamations on the flight.

Because Ning Qingyun had just sat down and hadn't had time to fasten her seat belt again, she was almost thrown off the seat by the violent jolt.

Qin Ke reacted very quickly, put his foot on the seat in front, stabilized his figure, and quickly pulled the seat belt with both hands, trying to fasten the seat belt for Ning Qingyun, but the vibration of the fuselage was too violent, and he continued several times in a row. After failing to fasten it every time, he simply hugged Ning Qingyun into his arms and hugged her tightly with both arms.This move was completely subconscious, Qin Ke had only one thought in his mind, to protect Ning Qingyun no matter what.

Wrapped in the familiar atmosphere, most of Ning Qingyun's original fear and tension disappeared immediately. She was about to smile back sweetly when the plane vibrated violently again.

Screams and exclamations resounded throughout the cabin again, and many people had already started to draw crosses on their chests.Professor Campbell's face was also a little pale, and he forced a smile: "I have taken dozens of flights to Paris, and this time is considered a relatively thrilling one."

Before Qin Ke could reply, the announcement in the cabin rang again: "Ladies and gentlemen, the plane will be bumpy when it encounters a strong mixed air flow, but please rest assured that everything is normal on the plane now, and it will get through this soon." In this crisis, please fasten your seat belts and hold on to the handrails..."

There was also a little more anxiety in the captain's voice, and anyone could tell that he didn't have much confidence in his words.

The lights of the plane flickered a little due to the violent vibration. Ning Qingyun's face turned pale with fright, and she subconsciously hugged Qin Ke tightly, her little hands tightly intertwined with the ten fingers of Qin Ke's left hand.

At this juncture of life and death, her mind was blank, and there was only one thought left, no matter what, no matter if she was going to go to hell or go to heaven, she had to be with Qin Ke and never let go.

It was also the first time for Qin Ke to encounter such a crisis, and his heart beat faster, but after hugging Ning Qingyun tightly, feeling the warm and fragrant nephrite in his arms, his mood miraculously settled down, and he comforted him softly: " Don't worry, you'll be fine."

"Well, with you here, no matter what I encounter, I'm not afraid. I... I will never leave your side, no matter where I go!" Ning Qingyun pressed her small face to Qin Ke's face , the tone in the trembling voice was unprecedentedly firm.

The soft green silk slid over Qin Ke's cheeks and neck, bringing a lime-like fragrance and a smooth touch, making Qin Ke feel how beautiful life is.

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and silently calculated the changes in the vibration frequency of the fuselage.

It is actually extremely dangerous for an aircraft to turbulence when it encounters a mixed airflow, because it is difficult to judge the extent of the influence of this airflow and where the wind is strongest. Once the aircraft plunges into the strongest wind, it is likely to cause spinning or even fall.

But all fluid mechanics, especially such high-air flow, cannot escape the category of NS equation fluid mechanics.

Qin Ke closed his eyes, calculated the vibration frequency and amplitude of the plane with a mental arithmetic ability that far surpassed that of normal humans, and then substituted it into a variant of the NS equation for calculation...

At this time, Wei Feng and Wei Jing pushed over regardless of the bumps, and they tied a small backpack to Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun respectively. Wei Feng said anxiously: "This is a ejection parachute. If there is any danger, wait for the plane When you fall to a certain height and the pressure difference between the cabin and the outside world reaches the same level, we will try our best to open the emergency hatch, and you will jump out and open the parachute according to the method we have trained before..."

Qin Ke suddenly opened his eyes, smiled and said: "Don't worry, it will be fine soon. The plane is flying in the right direction and is away from the center of the mixed air flow. It will return to normal in about 50 seconds. We are lucky, otherwise I have to think about how to persuade the captain and pilot to change the flight direction."

Wei Feng and Wei Jing looked at each other, seeing that Qin Ke's words were convincing, and they didn't seem to be speaking casually to comfort others, but the two still tightly grasped the back of the seat, guarding Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun.

Qin Ke turned his head and noticed that the forehead of Professor Campbell next to him was covered with sweat, his face was pale, and his lips were a little purple. He rubbed his heart vigorously, and quickly comforted him in English: "Professor Campbell, don't worry. It will be out of this mixed air flow in 50 seconds, you relax and don't be too nervous!"

He saw that Professor Campbell's heart had a problem with blood supply. At this time, excessive tension and anxiety caused a sudden increase in systolic blood pressure and myocardial ischemia. If he couldn't relax his mind, he might cause myocardial infarction, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Professor Campbell barely opened his eyes and looked at Qin Ke. Qin Ke said firmly: "Professor Campbell, listen to my countdown and breathe. My countdown is over, and this difficult time will end. You must Hold on... 47... 46..."

Professor Campbell's heart was extremely uncomfortable. He didn't quite believe Qin Ke's words, but he could only try his best to get rid of distracting thoughts and relax, and breathed and breathed rhythmically according to Qin Ke's countdown.

A miraculous thing happened. During Qin Ke’s countdown period, the severe turbulence stopped quickly, leaving only slight turbulence. When Qin Ke counted down to almost 0, the plane completely resumed its normal flight.

Everyone in the entire cabin was in shock, wondering if they had completely survived the danger.

At this time, the announcement on the plane sounded again, and the captain said in an obviously relieved voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, the plane has successfully passed through the mixed air flow. Please don't panic. The flight attendants will come to serve you soon. If you were injured in the turbulence just now, please contact our flight attendants in time, we will provide various medical services within our capabilities..."

Wei Feng and Wei Jing just wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads, and looked at Qin Ke with a little more incredulous gaze, like looking at a magic stick... Oh no, god.

Qin Ke actually predicted the flight status of the plane while sitting in the flight, which can no longer be explained by common sense.

Qin Ke let go of Ning Qingyun, let her sit back on the original seat and fasten her seat belt, and said with a smile: "Don't look at me like that, I don't have superpowers, I just did some math mentally. Ha, for Just in case, let me ask, Brother Feng, do you know how to fly a plane?"

Wei Feng nodded: "Hai Qiao and I know each other."

"...Really?" Qin Ke's eyes widened instead, and then he joked: "Well, if you encounter a similar situation again, the plane's course is wrong, and the captain refuses to change the course, it's up to you Go control the plane and change course as I say."

What he said was obviously a joke, but Wei Feng thought about it seriously, and then nodded solemnly: "Okay, we will try our best to do it when the time comes."

Qin Ke was speechless: "...I was just joking, the risk factor of changing the driver casually is more dangerous than falling into the center of the chaotic airflow."

Wei Feng said seriously: "No, we trust your judgment more than others."

If you look at me like this again, I will be under a lot of pressure.Qin Ke stroked his forehead.

Ning Qingjun has fastened her seat belt again, but she still holds Qin Ke's arm tightly. It is obvious that she has not recovered from the thrill just now.

Qin Ke knew that the girl was afraid, so he put his arms around her shoulders, comforting her in a warm voice, Ning Qingyun looked at Qin Ke firmly, and whispered: "I was thinking just now, if I didn't have a baby with you I will be very unwilling to leave this world..."

Qin Ke hugged her slender waist tightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you and I will be healthy and safe, and we will have several children. Well, we will work hard to make people tonight."

Ning Qingyun blushed slightly, but nodded firmly and firmly.

During this period, the paleness on Professor Campor's face gradually recovered a little blood color under the rhythmic breathing and relaxation. He took out the medicine and took it, and the discomfort in his heart finally disappeared. Then he remembered Qin Ke's previous countdown. He couldn't help but look up at Qin Ke in shock at what he said at the time. The look was similar to that of Wei Feng and Wei Jing looking at Qin Ke just now.

——Oh, he can't understand Chinese, so he doesn't know Qin Ke's conversation with Wei Feng, so he can't understand how Qin Ke did it.
