#933 - Chapter 933 Artificial wormhole plan, civilization leap! What is Mr. Qian worried about?
Comprehensive Research Center.
In a certain super-large conference room, over a thousand scientists gathered.
The scientists came from two civilizations.
One group was the project team previously led by Brady, whose main task was to find wormholes and discover ways to destroy them.
Unfortunately…
Results were limited!
Even with the direction provided by Chen Hao, they could only find wormholes near the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy, while the wormhole located in the Kuiper Belt… has not been found to this day, with no progress.
It's not that Brady is stupid, but that the theory about wormholes was completely wrong before.
Naturally formed wormholes in the universe only exist near supermassive black holes.
The one in the Kuiper Belt is man-made, okay?
It is temporarily created when needed.
It collapses and disappears after use.
How can you find it?
To put it bluntly, even Chen Hao's knowledge was only at, approximately, the 0.8 level of civilization before this.
Scientific progress is about constantly overturning the theories of predecessors.
Some of the scientific knowledge in the surface world is inevitably wrong.
When Brady saw hundreds of scientists from another civilization, he was a little confused.
What did Commander Chen bring these people here for?
"Everyone!"
Chen Hao walked to the stage, his eyes sweeping across everyone: "The search for wormholes and the search for methods to destroy wormholes, these two projects are to be stopped immediately!"
"Ah?!"
Brady was completely stunned.
Scientists like him are so fanatical that they usually don't give up once they are determined.
Because of receiving and replying to deep space radio waves, he brought all of humanity into an bottomless abyss.
In the past six months, he has been doing research like crazy, just to make up for his past mistakes.
The project is to be stopped immediately?
Could it be that because there haven't been any decent results in the past six months, Commander Chen wants to lie down and give up?
No!
Absolutely cannot give up!
Otherwise, he won't even have a chance to atone for his sins!
"The previous direction was wrong."
Chen Hao explained: "Only near supermassive black holes will there be naturally formed wormholes—no natural wormholes will appear in the Kuiper Belt."
"Impossible! You said before that the Hunters came from the Kuiper Belt through space jumps!" Brady shook his head.
"That's an artificial wormhole."
"What?!"
Brady was stunned.
Artificial?!
He felt that his astronomical knowledge was completely torn apart at this moment.
"Brady, your project team will work with the scientists I brought back to develop artificial wormhole technology!"
Chen Hao's expression was very serious, and he said the same sentence in the languages of the two civilizations: "The two sides must cooperate sincerely, because the research and development of your project is related to the survival of civilization—do you understand what I mean?!"
Competing for credit?
Creating opposition for the sake of face?
Forming gangs and cliques?
Absolutely not allowed!
Everyone must put all their energy into the research and development of the project.
This is not just about one person, it concerns the survival of two civilizations.
"It's a matter of survival."
Chen Hao's face was unusually solemn: "Anyone who affects the progress of research and development due to their own factors, don't blame me for being impolite—the project can move forward without anyone!"
It was a blatant way of telling them that anyone who dared to mess around would be directly crushed.
Don't think you are very important.
After all.
The most core knowledge is with Chen Hao here.
"Yes!"
Everyone stood up when they heard the sound.
How could they not understand the importance?
The life and death of everyone present, the life and death of their relatives and friends, and even the survival of the two major civilizations are all closely related to this project—messing around on this kind of project is tantamount to being the enemy of the whole world!
First, a ten-minute mobilization meeting.
Then get to the point.
Gathering over a thousand top scientists from the two major civilizations, from fields such as space and celestial bodies, will conduct research on artificial wormholes according to the ideas given by Chen Hao.
This is very difficult!
Chen Hao possesses the knowledge of two civilizations.
One is the surface world, equivalent to a 0.8-level civilization.
One is the 1.4-level technology of the alien civilization's predecessors.
Different civilizations have differences in the direction of technological development, but in many aspects, they converge by different routes and can play a certain role in mutual reference.
But!
Neither civilization has artificial wormhole technology.
Or rather, the level of artificial wormhole technology has exceeded the 1.4-level civilization.
Chen Hao needs to integrate the knowledge of the two civilizations and continue to improve on this basis to complete the project.
Half a day later.
Chen Hao gave the technical route and a series of related materials.
More than a thousand scientists left immediately.
Next, they will devote themselves to research and development, and if there is anything that cannot be solved in the middle, they will come to Chen Hao.
As for Chen Hao…
He is the chief engineer of all projects.
Not just artificial wormholes?
Hypersonic aircraft and antimatter weapons continue to advance.
"Xiao Chen!"
Just after finishing the meeting and going out, Old Qian stopped him: "Do you have time? Let's chat?"
…
Ten minutes later.
An old man and a young man sat in the reception room.
The meeting lasted for half a day. Although Old Qian did not enter the scene, he had been secretly listening—with Chen Hao's permission.
"It's difficult, isn't it?"
Old Qian frowned.
Most other scientists only know about a certain project, or a certain link in the project, but Old Qian is one of the few people who is clear about all scientific research projects and even the current entire enemy-us situation.
"According to you, our civilization is only at level 0.8, and the alien civilization's predecessors are only at level 1.4."
Old Qian asked in a low voice: "What level is the artificial wormhole technology roughly at?"
"I don't know."
Chen Hao shook his head helplessly: "The so-called civilization level is just what we have defined ourselves, just a general direction. But based on the various theories and technologies involved in artificial wormholes, I estimate… nearly level 2 civilization."
"So, in just over four years…"
No!
Old Qian suddenly denied himself.
More than four years?
Far less time than that!
First of all, the last time the Hunters invaded the alien civilization's predecessors was more than 10,000 years ago, okay?
Haven't their technologies developed in these 10,000 years?
If they come to Earth again, will it still take five years?
Secondly.
Even if it still takes five years, seven or eight months have already passed, but that doesn't mean there are more than four years left.
Artificial wormholes are not enough with just technology.
It also takes time to manufacture the machine to open the wormhole!
There is not much time left for research and development, maybe three years, maybe two years, or it may even be shorter—it depends on whether the time required for the Hunters to come again is shortened.
"In such a short time… is it possible?" Old Qian asked with a sigh.
Chen Hao has mastered the technologies of two civilizations.
One at level 0.8.
One at level 1.4.
But to jump to nearly level 2 civilization in a short period of time seems like a fantasy!
"Old Qian, I understand your worries."
Chen Hao smiled, trying to ease his worries: "Let's just assume that artificial wormhole technology belongs to the level 2 civilization level. But reaching a certain level node is the result of many technologies combined together, you understand what I mean."
