"Design a tower or laminated structure, using basic first-grade alloy as material, the specific type is not limited"

"Requirement: Able to bear impact multiple times its own weight."

"Three hundred times: You can obtain the status of a formal researcher, you can be qualified to apply for a D-level research task, and you can get an initial research fund of 200,000 trading points."

"Five hundred times: you can obtain the status of an intermediate researcher, you can be qualified to apply for two Class C research tasks or one Class B research task, you can get a preliminary research fund of 1 million trading points, and you can get an independent laboratory."

"Eight hundred times: You can obtain the status of a senior researcher, be qualified to apply for a Class A research task, and match the treatment of a Class A research task."

"A thousand times: you can obtain dean-level status and lead all corresponding research in related fields. Other benefits are negotiable."

In front of the towering Science and Technology Monument Tower, Hou Congwen controlled a simple robotic arm and continued to carve words.

He carved very seriously, as if he devoted every ounce of his attention to the stone tablet and was not disturbed by external objects.

But the people standing nearby watching the excitement were not as calm as him.

As the problem statement becomes clearer and clearer, the reward conditions given become more and more generous.

It's inevitable.

Discussions began to sound in waves.

"The tower structure can only use first-grade alloys, and it must have a minimum load-bearing capacity of three hundred times. How is this possible!"

"Even if the strongest rigid alloy is used as the bones and the buffer alloy with the best cushioning performance is used as the flesh, it is a miracle that it can withstand an impact force of one hundred and fifty times, three hundred times, five hundred times, or even...

A thousand times, this is outrageous."

"What's the concept of a thousand times? A structural frame built with one kilogram of material can withstand the impact of one ton. With this thing, you are afraid of a hammer disaster. Just duck in and it will be over."

"Realistically, maybe this is asking us to explore whether we can develop a new alloy that has stronger buffering properties than buffer alloys?"

"The first-level buffer alloy has 30 times the impact, the second-level buffer alloy has 50 times, and the third-level buffer alloy has 80 times. If there is no restriction on the alloy level, I can use the seventh-level alloy to withstand an impact of 300 times."

"Fuck, idiot, stay away from me. Why do you want to restrict the first-level alloy? It must be applied on a large scale. Are you going to use the seventh-level alloy? Our territory only produces a few seventh-level alloys in a year. You idiot, hurry up.

roll!"

"Who is saying that you have no brains? I look at you."

Literati have shown contempt for each other since ancient times.

Most of the people who can still stand here after failing the exam and want to regain qualifications by solving difficult problems still have some strength and ideas, and are not willing to continue in such chaos in the wasteland.

As for the remaining small number, they couldn't even get the qualifications for the exam and just tried their luck to get here.

Such a comparison naturally forms a chain of contempt.

Those who pass the exam look down upon those who fail, those who fail look down on those who try their luck, and those who try their luck look down upon those who come to visit.

Under heavy contempt, there were only a hundred people in this square, but they were already divided into several circles.

"There's no need to hide. These people don't dare to take action. They're just talking about it."

"But you are also lucky. It happened to happen at this time. Usually this place is deserted. There are only twenty or thirty people at most."

“That’s why every time a researcher publishes a new question, there’s so much excitement.”

Afraid that the commotion ahead would offend him, Su Mo was about to take two steps back to get out of the way of the battlefield, when Qi Xiaomei on the side stopped him with a smile and explained.

Looking at these two people, they really didn't dare to make a move. They could only argue with each other two or three meters apart in the air.

Sumo couldn't help but smile knowingly, and moved his gaze back to the stone tablet.

The three science and technology monument towers placed in the small square all have different categories of text inscribed on them.

The first one, the main category is physical chemistry.

Most of the problems recorded on it are also very professional subdivision problems.

Ordinary people come here, even if they know how to pronounce each of these words describing the problem, it is difficult to understand the true meaning when strung together.

In the second building, the main category is building materials.

The questions engraved on this stone tablet are smaller and more friendly to the people than the first one.

For example, the question given by Hou Congwen now clearly explains the needs and desired results.

In the third building, Sumo looked at it from a distance and couldn't see what category it was classified into. It could only be regarded as miscellaneous studies.

As for miscellaneous studies, the above questions are naturally no longer limited to strict rules and regulations.

Some questions can be explored and some clues can be found, while some questions are simply the imagination of the person who asked the question.

If you want to complete it, you either have to decide on the candidate in advance, or you just get lucky.

"Three stone tablets, the first one is too professional. To answer it requires not only solid basic theoretical knowledge, but also a large amount of experimental data to support it. This is probably one of the reasons why the rental laboratory appears.

one"

"If I choose the question on this one, even if I can come up with the answer, I won't be able to muddle through. After all, I haven't actually done these experiments, and the data comes out of thin air. Once I want to investigate it seriously, it will be too troublesome.

"

"The third one doesn't feel very good. The people who asked these questions probably don't know how to solve their own problems and what the answers are. Even if I get the correct one, it will take a lot of time just to check it. Wait until then

The day lilies are already cold by now.”

"It seems that if I want to answer the question, I can only choose the question on the second stone tablet." After some analysis, Sumo remembered this information in his mind and began to scan from the top of the stone tablet to the bottom.

Architectural design and material research and development rely not only on the accumulation of knowledge over time, but also on the luck of the moment.

The two are often indispensable and integrated with each other.

But the strange thing is that Sumo's expression changed slightly from the first question to the last question added by Hou Congwen.

"Have you added a lot of new questions these days?" Su Mo turned his head and looked at Qi Xiaomei.

The latter had a strange look on his face and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, the frequency of adding questions has indeed increased a lot recently. The questions on this stone tablet are kept for one year. In the past, the questions left on each stone tablet after a year were

Only twenty or thirty questions”

"But it's only June this year, and there are already over a hundred questions on the stele. Especially in the past three months, it seems that thirty or forty new questions have been added, mainly the second and third ones."

"So many?" Just looking at the question, Sumo had some subtle reactions.

Now that he had received Qi Xiaomei's affirmative answer, he was basically certain that just as Zhou Yue said, the territory was indeed on the eve of the fourth technological explosion.

The subject with a high probability of explosion this time is related to building materials!

"What can you do with this thing?"

"Or why should we rush to research something like this?"

There are hundreds of questions, about eighty of which are related to architecture.

There are people like Hou Congwen who start from the fundamental properties of the building's skeleton and ask questions in the direction of impact prevention, warmth preservation, corrosion resistance, safe ventilation, etc.

It also starts from the rationality of the building, the maximum utilization of the minimum space, and later maintainability.

Taken together, if it were not a smoke bomb deliberately released by the Academy of Sciences.

Sumo didn't need to think about it to know that this should be one of the reasons why there was a large-scale rush to develop buffer alloys.

Only with a large amount of experimental needs can corresponding materials be so urgently needed.

And even if outsiders notice it, they will ignore it, which makes them more aware of the importance of this research.

"How about you? Why don't you go up and answer a question? I can help you convey the answer to the corresponding researcher."

"As long as you can solve the problem, be recognized by researchers and the Academy of Sciences, and obtain the title of senior researcher or above, even if you want me to be your personal bodyguard, that's fine~" Realizing that Su Mo was looking at her seriously, Qi Xiaomei blinked and whispered.

joked.

"Ha, forget it, so many people can't answer this question, how can I give the answer at once?"

"Let's go shopping elsewhere." Waving his hands, Sumo smiled and slowly looked away from Hou Conwen, who was about to leave.

After browsing through the hundreds of questions on the second stone tablet, Sumo found that he could immediately solve about one-tenth of them and obtain the most basic researcher qualification.

At the same time, there are four questions. With just a period of calculation and exploration, he can even obtain intermediate or even advanced qualifications.

As for the question Hou Congwen just raised, as long as the "Pillars of Creation" structure on the Sun Chaser can be modified and reproduced on the building.

Let alone a thousand times the resistance, it can be easily constructed even if it is 1,500 times or 2,000 times stronger.

However, having said that.

Before figuring out the true rules of the Academy of Sciences, Sumo still planned to make a decision before taking action.

Everything depends on a thorough understanding of the rules.

"Okay, you really don't want to get in touch with the researcher? He has to leave?"

"Why should I contact him? A bad old man with no hygiene." He shook his head and looked at Qi Xiaomei's scrutinizing eyes. Su Mo smiled more freely this time.

He finally figured out why the Academy of Sciences would focus on first-time tourists like him and provide so-called "tour guide" services.

In fact, Qi Xiaomei's current work is both private work and official work.

In close contact, as a guard of the Academy of Sciences, she will continue to test and complete the process of mine clearance.
