"You mean, you want to overthrow string theory from beginning to end, and then use the Standard Model as a basis to develop a new theory that can explain both macro and micro physics?"

After talking about starting a new business, Lin Ling talked non-stop to Ye Zhou for half an hour about the theories of high-energy physics, including but not limited to the application of ads/cft in condensed matter, the singularity theorem of general relativity, and the standard model.

UV divergence in...

Ye Zhou's head was as big as a bucket when he heard all these advanced theories. By the end, he could hardly understand what Lin Ling was saying.

But at the same time, a thought appeared very clearly in his mind:

This is the origin of it all.

Perhaps it was from this moment that Lin Ling officially embarked on the research path of adjacent dimensions, and later, through the theory she created, she analyzed the problems of adjacent dimensions and space channels, thus creating

The quantum ghost traveled through twenty years and sent that reminder message to mankind.

Speaking of which, Lin Ling herself can actually be said to be the "Number Zero" because her past and future have actually formed a closed loop.

Of course, from the current point of view, Ye Zhou still doesn't know whether this closed loop is necessary, because time is a more complex problem than space, but in any case, Lin Ling, who embarked on this path, is a response to the human crisis.

A correct solution.

"No, I don't want to base it on the Standard Model. I think the Standard Model has bigger holes in explaining the problem of adjacent dimensions than it does in explaining gravity. I mean..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Ye Zhou had no choice but to interrupt Lin Ling again, and then said:

"Comrade Lin, I really don't understand what you are talking about. I am just an application technology person... What I need you to tell me now is that in your plan, you need us to give you

What kind of resource support is provided?”

"If you need people or equipment, you need to bring it up now. If new facilities are needed, then you need to give us a clear plan."

"You know, our resources are very limited now, and there are many parallel large projects being done. It is not easy to squeeze out resources for you."

After hearing Ye Zhou's words, Lin Ling paused and replied:

"Gong Ye, I will give you a list later, and there will be things I need on it, but...hmm, I thought I need to explain clearly what I want to do before you can approve it."

"Your explanation is completely useless to me... You should explain it to experts in your own related fields. However, all our current layouts are based on the strategic level, and the adjacent dimension theory

The research is originally included in this strategy, so you don’t have to worry too much.”

"I understand. Ye Gong, can I come over to you now? I want to hand over the materials to you first."

"...Come here."

Ye Zhou glanced at the time. It was already close to six in the afternoon. It was obvious that he would miss dinner again today.

After waiting for half an hour, Lin Ling finally arrived. Ye Zhou took a rough look at the materials she submitted and found that they did not involve many demands for infrastructure, but the most demanding requirements for talents--this is not the case.

Not a difficult requirement to meet.

If the other party wants to build a new large-scale collision device or launch a new deep space probe, then he really has to think carefully about it.

After a few brief exchanges, Ye Zhou stood up and prepared to leave the office. Lin Ling followed him. After walking for a while, Ye Zhou asked with some confusion:

"Why are you following me?"

"...I'm going to eat."

Ye Zhou smiled awkwardly, and then he realized that both of them were walking towards the canteen of Huawuyuan.

"...I'll treat you to dinner. It's been a hard time."

Lin Ling would naturally not refuse Ye Zhou's invitation - in fact, in her opinion, Ye Zhou was now everyone's superior, and every word he spoke had a hint of command, which made people displeased at all.

Know how to say no.

After sitting down in the small restaurant specially set aside in the cafeteria, Ye Zhou said:

"It feels like your condition has improved a lot recently, but you still need to pay attention to rest. Scientific research is a long-term job, and ensuring good health is a prerequisite."

"I understand, thank you for the organization's concern."

"...We are not strangers to this extent, right? Forget it, are there any new international developments in basic theoretical research recently?"

Lin Ling chuckled and replied:

"No, this is not a cliché... In terms of the general direction, there is still no change. Everything we do now is to unify the macro and micro. But if you ask me about the adjacent dimensions,

Things really do happen.”

"Tell me about it?"

Ye Zhou looked at Lin Ling curiously and asked.

"Over in Sweden, there are a group of scientists engaged in quantum physics who are discussing how to get in touch with civilizations in neighboring dimensions."

Hearing this, Ye Zhou's brows instantly frowned.

His attitude towards unknown civilizations has always been extremely vigilant, because it is obvious that all civilizations in adjacent dimensions are enemies with the current civilization on earth. The more exposed they are to enemies, the greater the danger.

"Why should we contact the neighboring dimension? Is there any benefit to us?"

Lin Ling shook his head and replied:

"Theoretically it won't do any good, but you know, some people's thinking is very paranoid - especially in the West, some scientists' pursuit of knowledge goes beyond instinct. They don't care about the life and death of human beings.

Want to pursue the ultimate truth.”

"For them, the adjacent dimension is a step towards the truth. If they can get in touch with them, they don't care what the consequences will be."

"What is this called? If you hear the truth in the morning, you will die in the evening, but the price they pay is all mankind."

"Of course, in addition to these paranoid people, there is also a group of people who call themselves the 'Symbiosis Faction' - actually, it is more appropriate to call them the 'Pet Faction'. I think they are more naive - they probably think that we are the same as the phase

Neighboring civilizations can still be negotiated, after all, they are all the same kind of civilization."

"Same kind of civilization? We don't even know whether the other party is a carbon-based civilization or a silicon-based civilization..."

"I really don't know, but if the other party is really a carbon-based civilization, then the similarity between us and them may really be extremely high - this is also the main point of this group of people. They think that we are similar to

The other party is likely to have extremely high cultural and moral similarities, and we can persuade the other party to give up the destruction of us through communication."

Hearing this, Ye Zhou sighed helplessly.

"This is too naive...will anyone believe it?"

Lin Ling nodded solemnly and replied:

"Ye Gong, to be honest, this argument seems very naive to us, because we speculate on the enemy from the perspective of 'malice', but if we change our position and regard the confrontation between the two sides as purely natural,

If it’s about competition for survival, then this reason is really not as outrageous as it seems on the surface.”

"If you think about it, we can protect wild animals, let alone an intelligent civilization? The ultimate goal of the symbiosis faction is to divide the earth in this dimension into an 'ecological reserve' at the expense of the development of civilization.

, ensuring the survival of human civilization.”

"Isn't this what pets are? Pets can survive because they are cute. What is so cute about humans?"

Ye Zhou asked dumbfounded.

"The cute thing is that we are just like them."

"Same as the neighboring civilization? Why?"

Lin Ling did not answer directly, but asked:

"Ye Gong, let me ask you a question. Do you know why most animals on the earth move on their feet instead of on wheels?"

Ye Zhou was stunned. For a moment, he couldn't understand the purpose of the other party's question, and of course he couldn't answer it.

Seeing Ye Zhou didn't answer, Lin Ling continued:

"We assume that there is such a species. They were born in a vast field. This field is extremely flat and has no obstacles to its progress. So for them, what is the direction of their evolution?"

"Obviously, the wheel evolved, right?"

"Because wheels are most efficient on flat terrain and consume the least energy, so the wheel family was born."

"However, as the Wheel Tribe continued to develop, their territory also expanded further, and one day, they suddenly discovered that the fields had an end."

"Beyond the fields are mountains, hills, rivers, and all kinds of obstacles. When you reach these places, the efficiency of the wheel begins to decrease."

"So, in order to adapt to such terrain, the wheel family began the second round of evolution - just like our off-road vehicles, they enlarged the grooves on the tires so that the tires can have stronger grip and roll over.

Pass higher hurdles.”

"Slowly, the grooves on the tire became deeper and deeper. In the end, the originally solid tire turned into several sticks radiating from the center."

"Such 'stick tires' have strong climbing capabilities and help wheel people survive in the mountains. But the problem is, they suddenly discovered that this is not the optimal solution."

"How does a stick tire work? Suppose there is an obstacle in front of it. Then, when the stick in front of it hits the obstacle, it will bear all the force, and then drive the stick behind to climb the obstacle through the force of rotation."

"In other words, during the climbing process, there is only one stick in contact with the surface of the obstacle from beginning to end. Sticks located in other positions of the stick tires cannot help."

"In this case, there is no need for the other sticks - so the original radioactive stick tire became a fan-shaped tire consisting of only two sticks."

"The two sticks one behind the other ensure that the wheel family can be stable and upright - the rotational drive method has also been eliminated and replaced with reciprocating motion."

"Just like that, the legs appeared."

After finishing speaking, Lin Ling breathed a long sigh of relief, and then asked:
To be continued...
