Chapter 20 Autistic Man
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 applications in just a dozen years. field.
Graphene is actually a single-layer structure of graphite. Simply put, it is a piece of graphite that has been 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 this thing.
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 all failed. 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 Andrei 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 that the application of graphene is too fast and too widespread.
Zhang Wei’s plan is exactly the scientific research result of 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 and send it to "Science" magazine. Everything will be fine!
......
The registration date for new students 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 free rooms!"
Ye Haotian paused. After a pause, he continued: "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 you yet. This name is too domineering, it always reminds me of Chen Haonan, the leader of Causeway Bay! I can't help but want to call him brother."
Zhang Wei said, putting on an arrogant expression. He 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 too Just call me brother! From now on you will be my Viagra!”
"No, your Viagra is in the pharmacy."
The knock on the door interrupted the two people's chat, and the dormitory administrator opened the door and came in. Behind him was a very thin freshman, pushing The suitcase has its head lowered and its neck shrank, like a frightened bird, and its appearance cannot be clearly seen.
The new roommate is here!
"Chen Ming, you can live in this room! Let me introduce you, this is Zhang Wei and this is Ye Haotian. You will be roommates from now on, so get along well!" said the dormitory administrator. , made a gesture towards Zhang Wei and Ye Haotian, indicating that the two of them should 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."
"All There are only two people in your dormitory on the floor. Do you think I don’t want to arrange for people to come in? But when people heard that you two masters live here, they all avoided it!" the dormitory administrator said.
"Avoid 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 third in the country, who would dare to live in it! Those who can’t get 700 points in the exam will even have to bypass the door of your dormitory. Let’s go!” the dormitory manager said.
"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, what you have in mind is so beautiful!" The dormitory administrator grinned and continued: "The third place is a girl."
"Brother Haotian likes girls the most! By then A four-person room becomes a five-person room!" Zhang Wei said with a smile.
“Nonsense, you don’t like ladies, but you like men?” Ye Haotian replied.
Zhang Wei pointed to the new roommate 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.
"Let me keep the story short! This classmate Chen Ming, there is a problem here." The dormitory director 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 has special instructions , 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 was 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 care of him. If there is a problem that cannot be solved, Just come to me!”
“Okay, let’s treat this 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 it mean to be smarter than me? Why don't you use yourself as an example?
Did you click on me on purpose?
