Chapter 20 Autistic People

When it comes to the greatest discovery of the 21st century, graphene can definitely become one of the most powerful candidates.

I believe everyone is familiar with the name graphene. It is the hottest material in the 21st century. Since its discovery, it has been widely used in many important fields in just a dozen years.

Graphene is actually a single-layer structure of graphite. Simply put, it is a piece of graphite cut into the thinnest state, so thin that only one layer of carbon atoms remains.

As early as 1947, some physicists proposed the concept of graphene, but due to technical limitations at the time, no one paid attention to it.

By 1985, humans prepared a new material called fullerene, which also brought graphene into human sight again.

Fullerene, like graphite, is also an allotrope of carbon, and its atomic structure is very similar to graphite.

At this time, scientists began to wonder, since humans can successfully prepare fullerene, they should also be able to successfully prepare graphene.

Many scientists began to invest in this field, but they were unsuccessful. Scientists once believed that thermodynamic fluctuations did not allow any two-dimensional crystal to exist at a finite temperature, so graphene was impossible to exist in reality.

It was not until 2004 that scientists Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov finally isolated graphene. and published a paper in the journal Science. The two also won the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics for this.

Under normal circumstances, a Nobel Prize-level result needs to go through 20 to 30 years of precipitation and fermentation from publication to application to award-winning work.

After all, it takes a while for scientific results to go from research to application. For too many scientists, their scientific research projects will not be implemented until decades after their death.

But graphene was successfully prepared in 2004 and won the Nobel Prize in 2010. In just six years, it is enough to illustrate the importance of this achievement. At least since World War II, no scientific research achievement has ever won a Nobel Prize in such a short period of time.

The reason for this is also because the application of graphene is too fast and too widespread.

Zhang Wei’s plan is exactly the scientific research result of cutting off graphene.

As a Nobel Prize-level achievement, the preparation process of graphene is actually very easy. It is no exaggeration to say that it can be made by hand.

As for publishing the paper, it is also very easy. Just copy the original work from the devil, repeat the experiment according to the above method, and then fill in your own experimental data. There is no need to check for plagiarism. Just send it to "Science" magazine and everything will be fine!

……

The registration deadline for freshmen is about to end, but there are still only two people in Zhang Wei's dormitory, namely him and Ye Haotian.

"Brother Haotian, the freshman registration is almost over! Why are there still only two of us in the dormitory? This is a four-person dormitory!" Zhang Wei said with a smile.

"I don't know why the other dormitories are full, but we have no new students here yet. Maybe it's because the Zijin Apartment was just built last year, and there are still more vacant rooms!"

Ye Haotian paused and then said, "Also, don't call me Brother Haotian. Your birthday is in April, mine is in November, and you are seven months older than me!"

"It's not your name. It's too domineering. It always reminds me of Chen Haonan, the leader of Causeway Bay! I can't help but want to call you brother."

As Zhang Wei spoke, he put on an arrogant expression and joked in half-baked Cantonese: "There can only be one Haonan in Causeway Bay, and that's me, Brother Jiaqian!"

"Isn't it Situ Haonan?" Ye Haotian muttered, and then said: "Then I will call you brother! From now on, you will be my Viagra!"

"No, your Viagra is at the pharmacy."

A knock on the door interrupted their chatter, and the dormitory manager opened the door and walked in. Behind him was a very thin freshman, pushing a suitcase, with his head lowered and his neck shrunken, like a frightened little boy. Even the bird cannot be seen clearly.

The new roommate is here!
"Chen Ming, you can live in this room! Let me introduce to you, this is Zhang Wei and this is Ye Haotian. You will be roommates from now on. You must get along well!" said the dormitory administrator, directed at Zhang Wei and Ye Haotian made a gesture, signaling the two of them to go out and talk.

The two followed the dormitory administrator out of the door. Zhang Wei couldn't help but said: "Teacher, dormitory administrator, today is the last day for freshmen to register. I thought it was just the two of us in this dormitory."

"There are only two people in your dormitory on the whole floor. Do you think I don't want to arrange for people to come in? But when people heard that you two great masters lived here, they all avoided it!" the dormitory administrator said.

"Avoiding it for fear of not getting there? This word is derogatory to us, right?" Zhang Wei continued.

"One of you has a score of 750, and the other has a score of 720. You are the top two in this year's college entrance examination! If you are not ranked third in the country, who would dare to move in! Those who can't get a score of 700 may even have to go around the door of your dormitory!" Dormitory Management The officer spoke.

"Then why doesn't the third place want to come? We can work together, supervise each other, and learn from each other!" Ye Haotian asked.

"Classmate Ye, you have such a beautiful idea!" The dormitory administrator grinned and continued: "The third place is a girl."

"Brother Haotian likes girls the most! Then the four-person room will become a five-person room!" Zhang Wei said with a smile.

"Nonsense, you don't like ladies, do you like men?" Ye Haotian replied.

Zhang Wei pointed to the new roommates in the dormitory, and then asked: "Teacher, dormitory manager, didn't you just say that no one is willing to come? What's going on?"

"This classmate Chen Ming is a bit special. It's a long story..."

"Then I'll make you a pot of tea and let's talk slowly?" Zhang Wei joked.

"I'll keep the story short! This classmate Chen Ming, there is a problem here." The dormitory manager pointed to his head.

"Stop teasing me. I have a brain problem. How can I get into Tsinghua University?"

"It's not an intellectual problem. He has autism and doesn't get along with others. The school specially ordered him to take good care of him," the dormitory manager continued.

"Asperger's syndrome?" Zhang Wei blurted out.

"Yes, that's it! If you don't say it, I can't even remember the word." The dormitory manager nodded.

"Do you even understand autism?" Ye Haotian's mental image of Zhang Wei became more like Hippocrates.

"I understand a little bit!" Zhang Wei thought to himself. It can't be said that he learned it from watching dramas!
The dormitory manager continued: "Among the freshmen this year, you two are the best, so I will leave Chen Ming to you. You usually take good care of him. If you have a problem that cannot be solved, come to me!"

"Okay, let's treat our place as a nursing home. Please call us nurses from now on!" Zhang Wei complained.

The dormitory administrator gave a few more instructions and left.

Looking at Chen Ming, an autistic man who was busy packing his things in the dormitory, Zhang Wei said: "Believe it or not, this guy must be a genius! Maybe he is smarter than you."

Ye Haotian nodded with deep approval: "If someone with autism can enter Tsinghua University, he is definitely a genius!"

Wait, what does smarter than me mean? Why don't you use yourself as an example?
Did you hit me on purpose?
