Chapter 435: The Desolation of Germany! The speech is public! A sensation in the academic world! The world is uncertain, you and I are both dark horses!
After the speech, Li Qiwei stayed in Berlin.
He first discussed scientific research cooperation between the two countries with Planck.
Today, because of Li Qiwei's existence, the Chinese scientific community has become a force that cannot be ignored in Asia.
Germany is now suffering from internal and external troubles and is in urgent need of finding allies.
Although it is not their turn to make the final decision on major political matters.
But in terms of scientific research, both of them are absolute authorities in the country and have full say.
Speaking of which, Li Qiwei must have taken advantage of the cooperation between the two countries.
After all, Germany's scientific strength at this time may be even better than that of the United Kingdom, and it is the scientific center of Europe.
China will surely learn countless valuable experiences from here.
For Planck, Li Qiwei's public speech was the greatest reward for him and the best response to Germany.
At least under the current circumstances, Professor Bruce, the world's first scientific person, decided to come to Germany.
It means a lot!
Although Li Qiwei's status at this time cannot determine many overall situations.
But his behavior will also be interpreted by all parties.
Using science as a buffer may ease relations between countries.
This is also something that heads of state are happy to see.
When Li Qiwei signed the cooperation agreement, he sighed in his heart:
"It was only by killing all German scientists that the United States created the superpower of later generations."
In real history, after the end of World War II.
Country M launched a top-secret operation code-named "Paperclip."
The purpose is to secretly bring scientists, technicians, technical data, etc. from country D back to country M.
From 1945 to 1947, Country M successively took away approximately 1,600 technical personnel from Country D.
This includes the top scientists and engineers in various fields.
Almost all the missiles, aircraft, rockets, aviation and other undertakings of the M country in later generations were completed by this group of people.
Country M also jumped from a second-rate scientific country to a first-rate country in an instant, and then developed crazily.
At this moment, Li Qiwei is using a gentler method to absorb the nutrients of Germany for his own use.
For a country’s scientific undertaking, Li Qiwei’s existence is the number 1.
For ordinary scientists and senior engineers, the number is 0.
Without Li Qiwei's 1, the country's scientific strength would be impossible to talk about, and it will be useless no matter how many 0's follow it.
But with him alone, he can only form 1 point of combat effectiveness.
It's not as good as a hunter with a gun, even though he's just a scumbag with a combat power of 5.
Only by adding thousands of 0s and 1s at the end can huge power be unleashed.
Shock the world!
In real history, it was after Mr. Qian returned to China that China's military scientific research strength began to advance by leaps and bounds.
This is the leadership role of top scientists.
They do not need specific skills such as drawing drawings or assembling electronic components.
Instead, he uses his own high-level perspective to build an overall scientific framework for the country.
That's what matters most.
And Li Qiwei's role goes beyond these.
Because he knows what the future world will be like.
After the agreement was completed, Planck brought good news to Ridgway:
"Bruce, the German National Academy of Sciences has entrusted me to grant you the title of foreign academician."
"I hope you won't refuse."
Li Qiwei felt very calm after hearing this.
It seems that the German scientific community has been stimulated by the Royal Society and wants to embrace Li Qiwei's thick thigh.
In this era, all countries attach great importance to scientists.
The war that just ended has proved that scientists play a vital role in both military and civilian fields.
Not to mention a scientist of Li Qiwei's level.
As long as he does not openly oppose other countries or humanity, he will be the target of all forces.
Even if he is a Chinese.
Li Qiwei smiled softly and said: "Professor, I am more than happy."
"However, I may not be able to attend the honor ceremony."
Planck smiled and said:
"Little things."
"I will have someone send you the certification documents then."
After bidding farewell to Planck, Li Qiwei, accompanied by Einstein, visited the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Physics.
Unexpectedly, before he entered the door, he saw Habo standing at the door and pacing back and forth.
At this time, Haber became the most famous chemist in Germany and became world-famous because of his sensational achievements in the synthesis of ammonia.
And because of Li Qiwei, the other party did not participate in poison gas research in this life.
So now he only has the reputation of "Bread Saint".
After the war, I don’t know if it was because of guilt or other reasons.
Harper worked on using chemical methods to extract gold from seawater to help the country pay huge war reparations.
But there was too little gold in the seawater, so his efforts were in vain.
However, this patriotic spirit has moved many bigwigs in Germany.
Immediately afterwards, Haber was elected director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Chemistry.
Under his leadership, the Institute of Chemistry became one of the world's centers of chemical research.
Harper has created an environment within the institute that is free from bias and respects individual independent research.
Half of the members in his laboratory are from other countries.
This gave him great prestige and connections in the chemical community.
At this moment, the 52-year-old Haber is still energetic and has bright eyes.
Of course he was here for the speech he gave a few days ago.
The moment Harper saw Li Qiwei, he immediately stepped forward impatiently.
The excitement was palpable.
"Professor Bruce, finally see you again."
After that, he complained to Einstein next to him:
"Professor Einstein, you really hurt me."
“If I had known that Professor Bruce’s speech was so shocking, I would have definitely turned down the foreign conference.”
"It was a great regret in my life that I missed that speech."
Einstein rubbed his nose awkwardly.
Don't know how to comfort me.
Harper's complaint won't be the last.
"Professor Haber, don't worry, I have had Bruce's speech completely recorded."
"When the time comes, I will sort out the details and send them to you."
"After all, this speech is so important to the chemical community."
Harper said excitedly:
"It's not only too important, it's simply a disruptive change."
"From now on, chemistry is no longer an experimental subject."
"It's the same as physics, using theory to guide experiments."
"In the past few days, our chemical community has been urgently discussing and will hold a global academic conference."
"Discuss the electron shell model and chemical bond theory together."
"Chemistry will usher in an explosive development."
As director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Chemistry, Haber advocated combining theoretical research with applied research.
But in fact, this is just a compromise on his part.
Because in chemistry at this time, there was no so-called pure theory at all.
It’s not like physics, which can separate theory and experiment so clearly.
Therefore, Haber felt that instead of pursuing unrealistic theories, it would be better to study more chemistry related to real life.
For example, in the case of artificial ammonia synthesis, although the chemical theory used is not very cutting-edge, it is just catalysts and reaction conditions.
However, the social value it can create cannot be compared with theory.
However, this does not mean that chemical theory is not important.
On the contrary, the theory proposed by Ridgway will raise the upper limit of chemistry and make its applications more unlimited.
That's why chemists are so excited and have to hold meetings to study it as soon as possible.
Seeing Haber's excitement, Li Qiwei smiled slightly.
"I believe the future of chemistry must be bright."
Suddenly, he thought of another thing.
"By the way, Professor Haber, I have a gracious favor."
"I hope you can visit China and teach your artificial ammonia synthesis technology."
"We need this kind of technology very much."
Haber smiled and said:
"Professor Bruce, I was just about to tell you."
"President Ren of your country's science society has contacted me before."
"After I finish my recent affairs, I will make an appointment to visit China."
"By the way, I also want to visit the City of Science to see how it is developing there."
After hearing this, Li Qiwei nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:
"I'll let them entertain you."
He has not been involved in domestic affairs recently.
Moreover, before coming to the UK, he resigned from the position of president of the Chinese Science Society, and Ren Hongjun took over.
After all, he has been away from the country for a long time, and there are some things that are a bit troublesome for Ren Hongjun to handle as the vice president.
So Li Qiwei simply delegated power and gave young people a chance to exercise.
It seems that the other party has adapted very well.
He even takes the initiative to do things.
And what he has to do is provide support in the general direction.
For example, regarding Harper's visit to China, if Li Qiwei did not speak up, things would definitely not go smoothly.
At least not to the extent that satisfies both parties.
And as soon as he opened his mouth, even if Haber had something big, he would definitely find a way to go to China.
Such is Ridgway’s influence now.
Countless people are connected with him as a hub, forming a huge network of people.
After Harper and Li Qiwei exchanged greetings, they didn't stay long and left directly.
Because next he has to prepare for a meeting in the chemical industry.
This meeting, which is related to the future of chemistry, is the most important thing for all chemists right now, and there is no room for sloppiness.
As a big shot in the field of chemistry, and having a sworn relationship with Professor Bruce, Harper was naturally the one everyone relied on.
At this moment, Einstein smiled and joked:
"Bruce, you might as well switch to chemistry now."
"Just leave physics to us."
Ridgway laughed and followed Einstein into the Institute of Physics.
In the director's office.
The two sat opposite each other and talked happily.
Let’s recall every moment of the past together.
"Bruce, do you remember Federico?"
Li Qiwei smiled and said: "Of course I remember, it was that boy who looked down on you and me back then."
"Jews and Chinese are both inferior people."
Einstein smiled: "He is now a lecturer at ETH Zurich."
"Last time I went to Switzerland for a conference and I met him."
"Not only did he publicly apologize to me, he also insisted on treating me to dinner."
"If I hadn't met you back then, I don't know if I would still be where I am now."
Li Qiwei was a little embarrassed when he heard this.
I really want to tell Einstein: If you hadn't met me, you would be a hundred times more awesome than you are now.
But soon, his expression became serious again.
Because Federico, whom he just talked about, reminded him of bad things.
Einstein saw that Li Qiwei looked a little strange and asked:
"What's wrong, Bruce?"
Li Qiwei thought for a while and decided to tell Einstein about it so that he could be mentally prepared in advance.
"I read the German newspaper yesterday and there was the latest news." "A party called the [National Socialist German Workers Party] was established."
"I took a close look at the ideas that this party promotes."
"It's very detrimental to your status."
"Do you know about this?"
After hearing this, Einstein's expression changed.
After experiencing the war, he became more mature than before.
He also has a deep understanding of his situation.
In Germany today, anti-Yism is prevalent.
It was said that the Jews caused Germany to lose the war.
And this newly established party used it as a propaganda slogan.
"I know this."
"But the current strength of this party is very weak."
"It shouldn't be a big problem."
This is why Einstein was so calm.
Although Germany has failed in the war now, there is still no problem with domestic order.
The content in the newspaper may just be some careerists with ulterior motives trying to stoke the flames.
Einstein still believed in the government.
Otherwise, he would not have been elected as the director of the Institute of Physics.
At least he asked himself and made many outstanding contributions to Germany.
He did not believe he would face unfair treatment.
Li Qiwei sighed inwardly.
It was really nothing to worry about.
But when a certain artistic man joined, the situation changed.
Li Qiwei's main change in this life was the process of the scientific world.
The impact on other aspects is currently very small.
Therefore, history will continue to advance along its established trajectory.
In real history, Einstein was forced to leave Germany in 1932 and settled permanently in the United States.
Later, all the information in his Berlin apartment was burned and his property was confiscated.
There was even a reward of 100,000 marks on his head.
But in this life, the situation may be reversed.
At that time, Bruce Lee, the god of physics, the most powerful scientist in the world, and the Lord of Borneo, will speak.
"I guarantee Einstein, who is for it and who is against it?"
"Art student, you'd better not mess with me."
"Otherwise, if you run to the moon, I can knock you down."
After Li Qiwei thought about it, he felt it didn't matter anymore.
They can make trouble however they want.
In this life, he will protect the purity of science.
"Einstein, don't worry, when that day comes, my city of science will always welcome you."
"And when the time comes, I will develop a secret weapon to ensure that no one dares to be presumptuous."
Einstein smiled knowingly, thinking that Li Qiwei was comforting him.
In his view, scientists have huge influence, but they cannot directly compete with violence.
Since ancient times, in both East and West, “scholars” have never had the real right to speak.
But he couldn't think of it anyway.
Just over ten years later, when he saw the mushroom cloud that covered the sky, he was dumbfounded in surprise.
But now, he just smiled and echoed:
"Bruce, I believe you."
"If you become a war madman, no one will be able to stop you."
After that, he took Li Qiwei's hand again and said:
"Let's go, Bruce, I'll take you to visit here and see how the Quantum Research Institute is compared to yours."
——
March 5, 1920.
Li Qiwei concluded his visit to Germany.
Before leaving, he received a grand farewell from the German scientific community.
And just as he returned to the UK, the content of this speech finally became fully disseminated.
As a result, the entire scientific community was shocked!
For a moment, everyone was shocked by the rich content of the speech.
"Oh! God! Is Professor Bruce going against heaven?"
"Electron shell model, clues to the fourth quantum number, reconstructed quantum theory, chemical bond theory."
"Each of these four contents is a success that shocked the academic world."
“I didn’t expect to appear in a speech.”
"The Institute of Quantum is now a veritable holy land of quantum theory."
"."
The chemical world seems to have set off a huge wave.
More than a dozen Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry have publicly stated:
"Professor Bruce's theory will completely change the future of chemistry."
"All scholars in the field of chemistry need to thank him."
As for the world of physics, quantum theory is becoming more popular than ever.
The big guys all felt a sense of oppression as the curtain opened.
University of Copenhagen, Denmark.
Bohr looked excitedly at the scientific journal in his hand, which contained the content of Li Qiwei's speech.
"Teacher, he is at his peak as soon as he takes action!"
"The courage to reconstruct quantum theory is so shocking."
"After the teacher comes back, I will go to the Quantum Research Institute immediately."
For Bohr, the fourth quantum number was just the icing on the cake.
As a giant in quantum theory, he did not take results of this level seriously.
The reconstruction of quantum theory was what Bohr was most concerned about.
Over the years, as he gave lectures in various places, he became more and more aware of this intuition.
This time, Ridgway gave Bohr confidence.
Quantum theory and relativity are somewhat different.
Although the theory of relativity is difficult, its logical ideas are consistent.
The derivation from beginning to end is very smooth.
And the theory of relativity is a pure thought experiment, a theory of thought.
Quantum theory is much weirder.
Not only are there unimaginable concepts like quantum, but there are also unstudied probability transitions and more.
In addition, it is closely related to atomic structure, and the two complement each other.
These are things that need to be explained from the underlying architecture.
So Bohr felt that Professor Bruce could create the general theory of relativity on his own.
But it is absolutely impossible for him to complete the entire quantum theory by himself.
This is destined to be a relay race of geniuses!
It requires the participation of top physicists from all over the world.
And Professor Bruce is that leader.
Bohr is the opponent's number one general!
However, this time he miscalculated.
The importance of the fourth quantum number far exceeds the previous three quantum numbers.
It can be said that it is precisely because of its existence that physicists have a new understanding of the nature of microscopic particles.
This is an extremely exciting journey of scientific exploration.
Koronig next to him was acting unusually quiet at the moment.
He is very self-aware, and reconstructing quantum theory is too far away for him.
It's simply not an area he can participate in.
However, the fourth quantum number is different.
It doesn't take a genius to study it.
The main thing is imagination.
Since Koronig came to Bohr's Theoretical Institute, he has been focusing on the fourth quantum number.
Therefore, he immediately found inspiration in the content of the speech.
Even Bohr did not notice what kind of transformation was taking place in his student.
At this moment, Koronig muttered to himself.
"The nature of the electron itself?"
"And it's binary?"
Suddenly, he thought of something.
"Up and down?"
"Left and right?"
"Before and after?"
"Clockwise, counterclockwise?"
Koronig's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he felt as if he had caught something.
But he was not good at mathematics and was not as gifted as Heisenberg.
Therefore, he still needs to think carefully.
At this time, Bohr finally noticed Koronig's anomaly, and he asked casually:
"What's wrong?"
Kroenig replied:
"Oh, nothing, Professor."
"I just had an idea of what Professor Bruce was talking about."
Bohr said "Oh" and didn't care.
He felt that the other party's qualifications were indeed a bit lacking, and it was still difficult to study such a high-end topic as quantum theory.
He was even prepared to find time to help the other person change his research direction.
It's a pity that if Koronig had just spoken out, he might have changed his destiny.
Leiden University, Netherlands.
Ehrenfest was definitely one of the first to receive records of his speeches.
Because he had a good relationship with Einstein.
And he also invited him to serve as a special professor at Leiden University.
Therefore, Einstein would take one or two weeks every year to give lectures at Leiden University.
At this moment, Ehrenfest faced the two students and said with a smile:
"Uhlenbeck, Gudsmit."
"I'm afraid it will be quite difficult for you two to win the gold medal in the Physics Olympiad this time."
"This young man named Pauli is a bit powerful."
"At such a young age, I already have profound insights into the theory of relativity and quantum theory."
Uhlenbeck and Gudsmit, both sophomores at Leiden University.
Moreover, Ehrenfest is very optimistic about them. Not surprisingly, they will become his graduate students after graduation.
Therefore, he now begins to guide the two of them and participate in some research projects.
Uhlenbeck is relatively low-key and said:
"Professor, I will try my best."
Gudsmit is full of confidence.
"Professor, I will not let you down."
Ehrenfest smiled with satisfaction, and then said:
"In order to expand your thinking and better prepare for Olympiad questions."
"I originally wanted to find some cutting-edge physics topics to practice with you."
"Now, Professor Bruce's latest lecture is very suitable."
"You can also try it, maybe you can find the fourth quantum number."
Ehrenfest did not expect that his unintentional act would soon cause an uproar.
After Lorenz, Dutch physics became famous again.
No one expected it.
The next trendsetters in quantum theory turned out to be those little-known young people.
The world is uncertain, you and I are both dark horses!
