From university academician to chief academician

When the news of the bankruptcy of the Wi-Fi Alliance came out, the entire earth seemed to be quiet for a moment.

In 2018, some economists made a budget, and the economic value generated by Wi-Fi was US$2 trillion, and in 2023 it will be US$3.47 trillion.

Without the emergence of Li-Fi, the economic value generated by Wi-Fi would be US$5 trillion in 2028.

In the future, it will lead cloud computing, artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, VR, AR, metaverse...

In the future, Wi-Fi will definitely be more important and generate higher economic value.

It is predicted that by 2040, the economic value generated by Wi-Fi will be 10 trillion.

As the Wi-Fi Alliance that masters Wi-Fi technology, it conducts in-depth cooperation and research around Wi-Fi with various countries around the world.

Although the Wi-Fi Alliance is not listed on the market, looking at the economic value generated by Wi-Fi, the market value of the Wi-Fi Alliance is at least US$300 billion.

This is among the top twenty companies in the world in terms of market capitalization.

But suddenly one day it went bankrupt.

The sensation caused by this was no less than that of one of the three Internet giants in Xia State suddenly going bankrupt.

In just half a day, the news of the bankruptcy of the Wi-Fi Alliance made headlines around the world.

People all over the world were shocked and hotly debated when they saw this news.

Especially the people of Xia State, because the bankruptcy of the Wi-Fi Alliance was led by Xia State.

A media person with tens of millions of Douyin fans described it in this way.

[We can see from the bankruptcy of the Wi-Fi Alliance that this is completely a loser in the technological revolution. From now on, this phenomenon will become more common, technology will become more important, and capital can only become a vassal of technology. rather than becoming the dominant one.

This is just the beginning of the technological revolution. In the future, more and more companies and organizations will be eliminated in the technological revolution. 】

When he made these remarks, everyone was shocked.

They feel as though a technological revolution is about to sweep across the globe, swallowing up all companies and organizations.

In this technological revolution, the winners survive and the weak are eliminated.

In the future, survival will become more intense, and scientific researchers will become more important.

Public figures recede into the background and scientific researchers step into the foreground.

A week later, Xia Guo released a white paper to increase investment in scientific research, strengthen the training of scientific and technological personnel, and strengthen the treatment of scientific researchers.

The three enhancements are all based on science.

This gives many people a different smell.

One year later, the first step was taken by the education sector to raise the math score for the college entrance examination to 200 points, lower the English score to 100 points, and increase the physics, chemistry and biology scores from 100 to 150 points.

It also stipulates that liberal arts students who do not score above 100 in mathematics and science students who do not score above 120 in mathematics are not allowed to be admitted to colleges and universities.

Of course, this is all for later.

Move forward one year!

Kyoto, Graphene Research Institute reception room!

Ye Fei was sitting on the sofa, surrounded by many reporters.

Ye Fei received news yesterday that many reporters wanted to interview him and inquire about the Wi-Fi Alliance’s bankruptcy.

So Ye Fei arranged for an interview in the reception room of the Graphene Research Institute.

"Dean Ye, what do you think of the bankruptcy of the Wi-Fi Alliance?"

Ye Feidao: "This is a technological revolution. I am sorry that the Wi-Fi Alliance failed in this revolution, but this was not my original intention. I just want to make Li-Fi available to people all over the world and benefit the world." world."

Everyone rolled their eyes inwardly. It was not your intention, but you are the vice chairman of the Li-Fi Alliance.

The bankruptcy of the Wi-Fi Alliance was led by the Li-Fi Alliance.

As the vice chairman of the board of directors, if you say it was not your original intention, who would believe it?

"Dean Ye, can you reveal the future development of Li-Fi?"

Ye Feidao: "Li-Fi will carry out in-depth cooperation with 5G, cloud computing, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, VR, AR, Web3.0 and other fields in the future."

"Not only for Xia Kingdom, but also for the whole world!"

“Building Digital Cities, Digital Nations and Global Digitalization.”

"Make human life more convenient, make technological development faster, and accelerate the development of earth's civilization."

"Dean Ye, I see you are at the Graphene Research Institute. Are you studying graphene?"

Ye Fei nodded and said: "I have this intention, but I don't know much about graphene. I am still learning. I will definitely study graphene in the future."

"Dean Ye, what areas of graphene are you studying?"

Ye Feidao: "It's not research, it's still learning. I'm learning about graphene and fullerene from Professor Gao Dingyi."

"Dean Ye, I heard that fullerene is a very difficult and cutting-edge research in the field of graphene?"

Ye Feidao: "Yes."

“How soon can you make breakthrough research in the field of fullerenes?”

Ye Fei said helplessly: "It's not research, it's learning."

These reporters don't care about this. It's not like they don't know about Ye Fei's deeds.

Ye Fei has participated in many studies, and each time he made a major breakthrough shortly after participating.

Which scientific researcher can do such a thing, only Ye Fei can do it.

If you say that Ye Fei came to study at the Graphene Research Institute, only a ghost would believe it.

He must be doing research on fullerenes, and he will definitely make a breakthrough soon.

The interview ended and the news was quickly released.

Graphene Research Institute, in a certain laboratory.

Professor Gao was sitting in front of the microscope, placing his eyes in front of the eyepiece, observing what was under the microscope.

After a while, Professor Gao stood up and said: "Ye Fei, take a look, this is C60 fullerene."

There are 18 kinds of fullerenes that have been discovered so far, including C20, C28, C32, C44, C50, C60, C70, C72, C76, C80, C84, C90, C94, C96, C120, C180, C240 ​​and C540, etc.

The smallest fullerene is C20.

C60 has high stability and is the most widely studied of the fullerene family.

It looks like a football and is also called footballene.

At the same time, it was also the first fullerene discovered.

Moreover, it was synthesized in 1985, and the four people who discovered fullerene in 1996 won the Nobel Prize.

"good!"

After Ye Fei finished speaking, he sat down at Professor Gao's seat and looked at the produced C60 fullerene through the eyepiece.

The fullerene under the eyepiece is as beautiful as a football.

"It's so beautiful!" Ye Fei exclaimed: "The structure is very stable, like a football."

It is known that hexagons are the most stable structures.

Diamond is very hard because of its hexagonal internal structure.

The internal structure of fullerene is also hexagonal.

"That's right!" Professor Gao said with a smile: "This is a football, a football in the field of materials science."

When Ye Fei raised his head and looked away from the eyepiece, Professor Gao said: "Ye Fei, you have learned everything you should learn from me in the past six months. It will be no problem for you to conduct fullerene research with me next time!" "

"No problem!" Ye Fei said with a smile: "Just send me as you please, I will definitely cooperate with you."

Ye Fei is very confident. After studying with Professor Gao for more than half a year, he has fully mastered the knowledge of fullerene and graphene.

I believe that I will be able to cooperate well with Professor Gao to develop fullerenes together.

The reason why I mastered the knowledge of fullerene and graphene in such a short time is partly because of the system.

On the other hand, Ye Fei is engaged in mathematics. Mathematics is the basis of all natural subjects. If you learn knowledge in other fields, you can quickly master it.

For people who can do well in the field of mathematics, going to other fields is equivalent to a downgrade blow!

Professor Gao smiled and said: "Then let's start tomorrow!"

"Okay!" Ye Feidao.

Professor Gao raised his hand and glanced at his watch and said, "Let's go, it's dinner time, let's go eat."

"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded.

After saying that, the two left the laboratory and walked towards the cafeteria of the institute.

Ye Fei and Professor Gao sat opposite each other and ate at the table.

Ye Fei suddenly looked around in confusion. He found that many people were looking at him in surprise.

Ye Fei touched his face and muttered in his heart: "There is nothing on my face!"

"It's not my first day here, why are they looking at me like this?"

Ye Fei asked quietly: "Professor Gao, have you noticed that many people are looking at me with surprised eyes? Do you know what's going on?"

Professor Gao looked around. Those who were looking at Ye Fei immediately moved away when they met Professor Gao's eyes.

Professor Gao said in astonishment: "That's really the case. What happened to them?"

Professor Gao waved to someone and said: "You... come here... yes, it's you... come here..."

Soon, a young man wearing glasses walked over slowly and said anxiously: "Dean Gao!"

Professor Gao is one of the scientific research leaders of the Graphene Research Institute, and his position at the Graphene Research Institute is vice president.

Professor Gao said: "Why did you look at Ye Fei strangely just now?"

The young man scratched the back of his head and said hesitantly: "Don't you know?"

Ye Fei and Ye Fei looked at each other in confusion, and Professor Gao asked, "What do you know?"

The young man said: "Dean Ye's interview some time ago went viral."

"Is the interview popular?" Professor Gao looked at Ye Fei doubtfully and asked, "What did you say during the interview?"

Ye Fei's eyes showed thoughts and he said confusedly: "I didn't say anything. These reporters asked me some opinions about the bankruptcy of the Wi-Fi Alliance, the future development of the Li-Fi Alliance and my work at the Graphene Research Institute. Study!”

"No!" said the young man, "the reporter said you were studying fullerenes."

“Because of this, the graphene and fullerene sectors of the stock market have exploded.”

"Uh..." Ye Fei said in surprise: "Graphene and fullerene have skyrocketed because of my interview?"

"Yes!" The young man nodded and said, "Many people say that whatever you study will definitely succeed. As long as you study it, you will definitely buy it and you will definitely make money."

"Tell me where Ye Fei is, where is the market!"

Ye Fei said dumbfounded: "And this operation? They have too much confidence in me. I haven't started researching fullerenes yet!"

Professor Gao smiled and said: "Ye Fei, everyone has so much confidence in you, it seems that our fullerenes will have a breakthrough!"

Of course, Professor Gao was just joking.

If fullerene was so easy to achieve breakthroughs, it would not be the most cutting-edge and most difficult research in the field of graphene.

Any breakthrough in the field of fullerenes will trigger changes in the entire materials market.

Ye Fei smiled and said: "Let me borrow their good words. I also hope to have a breakthrough. Maybe we will win awards for it in the future!"

"Yes!" Professor Gao said with a smile: "I hope so!"

After dinner, Ye Fei returned to his residence.

Sitting at the desk, he opened his laptop and looked up his interview information online.

[Brother Xinfei, get money! 】

Ye Fei burst into laughter when he saw this sentence.

Ye Fei shook his head and said: "This man is really talented!"

This sentence has hundreds of thousands of likes.

[Wherever Brother Fei is, our money will follow! 】

[Ye Fei’s research must be excellent! 】

[There is nothing in this world that Ye Fei has not successfully researched. Giving him a cigarette can create the whole world! 】

【……】

After reading it, Ye Fei shook his head and said funnyly: "These people are really talented. Am I so good in their eyes? They almost praise me as a god."

“Speaking of stocks, Bitcoin stocks have almost risen and can be sold.”

In the next few days, Ye Fei sold a batch of Bitcoins every day, and it took a full month to sell out all the Bitcoins.

Now he has more than 230 billion in cash.

It's not that he can't sell it all at once, but he wants to see the market and maybe make some money.

The next day, in the laboratory!

There are fifteen people in the laboratory, all wearing white coats.

Professor Gao said: "Our research is to develop a new type of stable fullerene."

"Everyone also knows that C60 is a highly stable fullerene."

"But materials scientists believe that there must be a fullerene that is more stable than C60."

Someone asked: "Dean, the scope of fullerene research is too broad, there must be a scope!"

"Indeed!" Professor Gao nodded: "I can't determine the scope, but there are people here who can help us determine the scope."

Professor Gao looked at Ye Fei and asked, "Dean Ye, is it okay?"

Professor Gao called Ye Feilai, and he wanted to use Ye Fei's mathematical knowledge to determine fullerenes that are more stable than C60.

It's just that Ye Fei didn't understand materials science before and knew nothing about materials science.

It just so happened that Ye Fei was very interested in materials science.

Therefore, Professor Gao taught Ye Fei materials science for more than half a year.

In this way, Ye Fei could determine the range of fullerenes that are more stable than C60.

After hearing Professor Gao's words, the others also looked at Ye Fei.

Ye Feidao: "No problem!"

Professor Gao asked: "Do you need any help from me?"

"No need!" Ye Fei shook his head, with a confident smile on his lips: "I like to work alone on mathematics."

The people present were all laymen in the field of mathematics.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that they are not good at math, but it also depends on who they are compared with.

Comparing with Ye Fei is equivalent to comparing the heights of Fan Changjiang and Yao Ming. One of them is taller than three of you.

Moreover, Ye Fei used to lead his team members to do research and deduced the main formula by himself without the need for others to intervene.

Now, Ye Fei still doesn't need others to intervene.

"Okay!" Professor Gao nodded: "If you need help, you can tell me and we will definitely help you."

"Okay!" Ye Fei nodded and said with a smile, "If I need help, I won't be polite."

In the following time, they divided the work and cooperated.

Ye Fei determined the range of more stable fullerenes mathematically.

The rest, led by Professor Gao, used materials science knowledge to determine the range of more stable fullerenes.

With a two-pronged approach, maybe Professor Gao and his colleagues will discover a more stable fullerene range before Ye Fei does.

After all, being idle is also idle, and you always have to find something to do.

Ye Feixin said: "There are many types of fullerenes. In addition to the classification of sequences, there are also classifications of types."

Fullerenes are divided into fullerenes and non-fullerenes.

Fullerenes are mainly used in medical, green energy, multi-body research and other fields.

Fullerene has a very good antioxidant effect and is called the king of antioxidants.

Plus fullerenes are non-toxic.

Therefore, fullerenes are often used in cosmetics.

In the field of green energy, fullerene is often used in the research and development of new energy sources, such as solar cells.

Fullerenes and non-fullerenes have complementary functions in new energy batteries.

Fullerene derivatives are currently the most efficient acceptor materials. They have relatively low homo/lumo energy levels, high electron mobility, and spherical structures that are conducive to phase separation.

However, the morphology of fullerene derivatives is unstable and their absorption of light is weak.

Nonfullerenes can overcome these shortcomings simply because the electron mobility of nonfullerene acceptor materials is lower, thus limiting the active layer thickness.

Therefore, non-fullerenes are less efficient.

Ye Feixin said: “To identify more stable fullerenes, we must look for fullerenes and non-fullerenes.”

"The functions of fullerenes and non-fullerenes are complementary. If you can mix the two materials together, you may be able to discover something."

Ye Feidao: "Professor Gao!"

Professor Gao came over and said, "What's the matter?"

"Professor Gao, what would happen if fullerenes and non-fullerenes were fused together?"

Professor Gao said: "Someone has done this before, and I have done it too, but there seems to be no big discovery."

“What sequence of fullerenes and nonfullerenes are you fusing together?”

"All sequences have been merged!"

Ye Feidao: "Are the functions of fullerenes and non-fullerenes complementary?"

Professor Gao shook his head and said: "Some sequences of fullerene functions can be complementary, but some cannot."

“Which ones complement each other?”

"C72 and H36, C94 and Y25!"

There are also many types of non-fullerenes, H36 and Y25 are two of them.

“Can you fuse these two groups of fullerenes and nonfullerenes together?”

"I want to observe these materials mathematically, and maybe I can make some discoveries."

"Okay!" Professor Gao nodded and said, "No problem. You wait for me for a while, half a month, and I will help you integrate it."

"Okay!" Ye Fei nodded.
