Chapter 307 The era of superconductivity!

The press conference was held in a conference hall in a building in the center of Shanghai. The conference hall was not very big and could accommodate up to seven hundred people.

Among those invited, in addition to the media, there were also condensed matter physicists from some universities, as well as bosses or representatives of some well-known technology companies.

More than 700 seats are packed.

"What exactly does Li Mu want to announce? He actually invited so many people, even our BCC."

In the media seats, two reporters from the BCC were discussing in confusion.

As foreign media, they have always been very aware of the difficulty of conducting news interviews in China, because they may even encounter various distrust from the Chinese people during the interview process, in addition to restrictions from the local government.

So generally speaking, they don't like to come here for interviews, but this time is quite special. After all, Li Mu personally invited him. Li Mu is now considered one of the few foreigners in the UK from non-Commonwealth countries to have received the British Medal.

Maybe, what important news they announced this time?

"It's said that their first project has been officially completed. This press conference is a kind of... well, maybe it's a formality?" McClun thought for a while and then expressed his inference.

The completion of the first project is indeed worth remembering, so that's why he did it, right?
At least that's what he thought.

But his colleague Beers didn't think so: "I don't think so. I checked, and he has never announced what their subject is before. It seems to be a confidential project."

"Confidential project?" McClun was stunned, narrowed his eyes and said, "What kind of project could it be?"

"We don't know now, but we will know soon." Beers looked at the podium in front of him. The time was getting closer to the moment when the press conference was officially held.

Of course, there were many other foreign media present, and like McClung and Beers, they were very confused about this press conference.

In any case, this press conference seemed quite sudden.

There are even many people who are not willing to come here.

After all, it’s not certain whether the media behind them will be willing to publish this news after they return. Maybe their editors feel that this news has no eye-catching value?

However, unlike foreign media, for domestic media, this press conference is of great concern to them. After all, this press conference was held by Li Mu, and Li Mu's presence in the country means absolute traffic. , as for the explosiveness and so on, they didn't care at all, Li Mu just took one shot and that was it.

In this way, time passed quickly and came to seven o'clock in the evening.

The conference is usually held at this time. One of the main reasons is to allow many people to watch it after get off work.

So now, tens of thousands of viewers have poured into the live broadcast room to watch.

Of course, tens of thousands of people are relatively few, and these tens of thousands of people are basically researchers or professors of physics.
However, there are still quite a lot of young people. Many young people came to watch this press conference out of admiration for Li Mu.

The barrage has also started.

【I'm coming】

[This is Mu Shen’s press conference!I don’t know what will be said. 】

[The God of Shepherd will always be a God! 】

[My mentor was invited to the scene. I really don’t know what to say at this press conference. Is it so outrageous? 】

[Maybe the Shepherd will announce that he has proved the existence of parallel worlds]

[According to dimensional mechanics, there is a high probability that parallel worlds are real]

[Imagine that at the same time, at this moment, there is a person exactly like you in another parallel world, watching this live broadcast like you, how magical it is]

[I give you the pen to write. 】

[I am super, the Shepherd is on the stage! 】

After this barrage appeared, the number of barrages also decreased, because these viewers had already seen Li Mu's figure appear from the stage during the live broadcast.

Li Mu, who was dressed in formal attire, also wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses on his face.

Plano lenses, not myopia lenses.

The glasses were given to him by Yun Rongshang. According to Yun Rongshang, after he put on such a pair of glasses, he looked much more mature.

As for why he was given such a pair of glasses, it was also because he told Yun Rongshang one day that because he was very young, every time he saw anyone, everyone would sigh at his youth.
So there is a pair of glasses like this.

At least, now that he is standing on the rostrum, in the eyes of others, his age is no longer a concern.

"Welcome, distinguished guests, to the first press conference held by our National Sheshan Institute of Science."

“The purpose of this press conference, as we said in our previous promotion, is to bring the successful conclusion of our first topic this year.”

"Of course, it is also to publicize how great our subject is to the whole society."

"And what it means to all human society, what it means to the development of science and technology, and what it means to our future."

Li Mu smiled, and these three "meanings" brought the atmosphere of the audience to a climax for the first time.Those who previously thought that this press conference was just an ordinary press conference, or just a press conference for Sheshan Research Institute to show its presence, now realized that something was wrong.

If that were the case, would Li Mu use such an exaggerated way to describe the results of their project?
They don't believe it.

After a moment of quiet discussion, all the audience sat upright and stared at Li Mu, waiting for his next words.

Li Mu paused, then waved his hand, and the large multimedia screen behind him lit up.

Immediately, several big characters appeared.

【Superconducting Miracle】.

Of course, under these four characters, there are translations in multiple languages, including English, French, Japanese, and Russian.

At this time, the audience in the audience were at a loss.

Superconductivity...a miracle?
What do you mean?
Is their topic related to superconductivity?

At this time, Li Mu on the stage also spoke.

"Superconducting."

"One of the most amazing physical phenomena in the world."

"It's like gravity distorting light, or a supernova explosion."

"The existence of the phenomenon of superconductivity makes it possible for us to achieve almost [-]% utilization efficiency of electrical energy. "

“After Onnes discovered the phenomenon of superconductivity in 1911, research on superconductivity immediately triggered a craze in the physics community.”

"The physics community has been trying to explain the occurrence of this phenomenon. From the London equation proposed by the London brothers in 1935 to the BCS theory in 1950, physicists are committed to explaining the existence principle of superconductivity."

"After that, the high-temperature superconductors discovered by physicists brought the academic community into a new problem."

"Research on superconductivity is very difficult because it occurs at the level of electrons. Electrons are so small that we cannot observe their behavior at all."

"Although we now have arpes, which is an angle-resolved photoelectron spectrometer, which can help us observe the behavior of electrons, to some extent, this indirect and limited two-dimensional observation method is not suitable for our The research still brings a lot of problems. "

"But fortunately, time will solve everything. So, finally in 2022, Li Mu, that is, I, successfully explained the superconductivity phenomenon. My Li superconductivity theory has been recognized as the answer to the superconductivity phenomenon. The most successful explanation.”

Li Mu smiled slightly, and the audience also laughed along with him.

Li Mu also continued: "As for whether it is the most fundamental explanation, it still needs more time to prove."

"It's just that the theory of superconductivity is our goal, but it is not our ultimate goal. Our ultimate goal is always to create real superconductors and contribute to our society."

"So - we succeeded."

At this time, Li Mu opened his hands and showed his palms to the people present.

People could immediately notice that there was a metal block placed on the palm of each of his hands.

All the audience were stunned. They were not thinking about when Li Mu had these two pieces of metal in his hand, but they were thinking about what Li Mu's words had to do with the two pieces of metal in his hand.

Of course, there are many people who react quickly. After all, superconductivity has already been mentioned.

But no matter what, that truth seems a bit too impossible for these people.

"Could it be...?"

"Impossible...absolutely impossible!"

But at this moment, Li Mu's hands had already closed, and the two metal blocks came together.

But as Li Mu left one hand, a magical scene happened.

One of the pieces of metal floated!
And after it floated, there was no swaying, it just stayed motionless, as if it was locked by an invisible force.

Of course, invisible forces are not magical. After all, whether they are electromagnetic force or gravity, they are invisible to humans.

What makes people find it magical is that the suspension of the two metal blocks is extremely stable.

It would be impossible to achieve such stability with just two magnets.

And there is only one material that can do it, and the answer is ready to come out, that is -

"Normal temperature superconductors can achieve superconducting properties at room temperature."

Li Mu looked at the Meissner effect taking place on his right hand and said calmly: "And it also has incredible significance for all mankind."

"So, please let me announce that mankind has begun to enter the superconducting era!"
