Chapter 218 Copenhagen Spirit

Until a few days later, Cheng Jinzhou felt dizzy.

His newly established team includes Xiang Xin, a first-level star warlock, Cao Feng, a second-level two-star warlock, Jin Xi, a two-star warlock, Bai Jing, a two-star warlock, Mr. Qian Lan, a one-star warlock, and Liao Kai, a one-star warlock. In addition to these stars, In addition to the backbone of the warlocks, Warlock Jiang Huangxing joined as a consultant, which is even more surprising.

A fourth-level three-star warlock, no matter which world he is in, is the object of infinite respect. Now he decided to join a team, but it was not a team led by him. Even the well-informed star warlocks seemed to have never heard of similar things.

In addition, the increase in the Star Warlock's contribution points also made Cheng Jinzhou feel like he had won a prize - although he knew the ticket number before claiming the prize, it did not hinder his excitement when he saw the prize.

In just one month, the increase of 270 contribution points means that Cheng Jinzhou's three-star warlock path has once again entered the fast lane. In the future, as the research of Star Warlocks increases, his contribution points will definitely increase even more strongly. The total contribution points are close to 500, which allows Cheng Jinzhou to see the three-star Warlock's porch - which is the dream of countless Star Warlocks. The goal.

If Xia Jing hadn't had many journals recognized by the Star Warlock Association and the Holy Church, a few more "supplements" would have put an end to Cheng Jinzhou's wait.

It has to be said that although the content of calculus is too profound for many star warlocks, within the entire Xia Jing area, there are far more intelligent and accumulated star warlocks than Cheng Jinzhou imagined.

Warlock Jiang Huangxing would even suddenly laugh while reading the journal, and then point to a certain name and shout: The last time I saw him was 45 years ago, I thought he was dead, but he reappeared...

The concept of life and time of the Star Warlocks is truly enviable.

Cheng Jinzhou continued to study artillery mathematics based on calculus under the guidance of Warlock Jiang Huangxing. He himself took the newly formed team and started the first experimental activity. Inviting Warlock Jiang Huangxing to join was not so much about using him as it was about taking advantage of his name.

At least Bai Jing and others will feel more valued when they see the figure of Warlock Jiang Huangxing - that feeling is probably the perverted pride of "my colleague is a Harvard graduate".

Bai Jing is the oldest star warlock besides Jiang Huangxing. He is 112 years old. His white beard and white hair are neatly combed with grease, and he looks like a lawyer in the British court. He is white, thorough and dignified.

Qian Lan and Liao Kai are both very upright gentlemen. A face-shaped star warlock, sixty or younger, with a promising but not very bright future. He is stronger than most ordinary people and weaker than most star warlocks. He doesn't have many opportunities, but he is willing to seize the current opportunity.

At the beginning of the project, the first task of Cheng's team was to produce sodium oleate, dodecylamine hydrochloride or their substitutes to purify serpentine. The long-term goal is to convert all the All compounds are purified.

Although it seemed a little difficult, the combination of seven star warlocks made everyone confident. What's even more interesting is that since the Star Warlocks are ashamed of studying practical matters, no one asked Cheng Jinzhou: What do you do by studying them?

Astromancers' pursuit of mathematics is so pure and boring, almost like the art of nobles.

Cheng Jinzhou was also delighted with the joining of the seven Star Warlocks. Regardless of whether it is modern or modern times, seven theoretical physicists in a team are already more crowded than a disco. To put it a bit exaggerated, maybe 7 theoretical physicists can represent the entire physical power of a country - never mind the remaining professors and lecturers. They are teachers and have nothing to do with "scientists". To put it bluntly, maybe It’s because everyone in the same field eats the same food.

In any case, just because jackals and tigers like to eat meat cannot mean that they are the same.

While everyone was taking the time to familiarize themselves with the research content, Cheng Jinzhou began to think about team building issues.

Just like the value of seven physicists, managing them is no less troublesome than the management of seven provinces and cities - the so-called management of scientists must allow them to produce positive and valuable research results. To pen it up like a pig, all it takes is one cook.

Among the scientific teams in Cheng Jinzhou's impression, Edison ranked first: the master of scientific capitalists and the one who deprived the era of reputation. Perhaps Nobel ranks second: wealth in life, fame in death, 300 years of happiness...

However, the team experience of the two people seems to belong to a company-style organizational form, which is obviously not suitable for Cheng Jinzhou's current status.

He was writing and drawing on the table, and Ys would come up with some ideas from time to time. The experience of the latter mainly comes from the Star Alliance. Just like the focus of modern scientific research management, everyone focuses their experience on finance, auditing and scientific research funding. In other words, modern scientific research management is mainly about managing money, and it is also not the team management that Cheng Jinzhou needs.

In fact, the star warlocks present could not be hired with money at all.

However, there is only one row of modern scientists, and Cheng Jinzhou quickly and solemnly wrote one name on the paper: Bohr.

Yisu, who had just put forward a series of opinions, immediately asked in confusion: "Why did you choose him?"

His understanding of Cheng Jinzhou's former world was somewhat superficial.

"Why did you choose him?" This time it was Cheng Jinzhou's turn to be surprised and said as if he was offended: "He is the founder of the Copenhagen School."

The former customer service classmate was at a loss and didn’t know what to say.

Cheng Jinzhou, who has always been a cow, now understands his confusion about the cow playing the piano. He didn't care about what Ys thought. He recalled the ins and outs of the Copenhagen School in a spirited way. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his choice made sense. Whenever this happened, he would circle Bohr's name. .

The Copenhagen School originated from the Institute of Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen. Its philosophy is not so much about winning by surprise as it is about resolute implementation. Its core and key to success is what people call the "Copenhagen spirit": the virtue of complete freedom of judgment and discussion.

Cheng Jinzhou abbreviated it again, taking "the virtue of discussion" as the main content of his work. As for complete freedom of judgment, the Star Warlocks have already exceeded the standard.

Discussion is also a commonly used method in the world of Star Warlocks, but the method adopted by the Copenhagen School is more direct, in-depth and determined. Their academic exchanges are required to be held regularly, almost once a week, and most physicists and graduate students participate. The content is the latest articles or a person's latest research progress. There is no time limit, informal format, and everyone can be free. Ask questions and leave comments... Discussions occur anytime, anywhere, during walks, swimming breaks, and casual conversations.

Some people may say: This is very simple.

But in reality, it's not simple at all. Because scientists are not saints, they have higher requirements for their academic privacy than for their wives' physical privacy. With the development of society, capitalists will put private interests before all interests. Profit-seeking companies are sweeping the world. Extensive academic exchanges will bring widespread patent challenges.

The Copenhagen approach requires a leader who is strong and good at organizing—he must also be a leader with academic status, so that the discussion can persist and continue without being swayed by inertia and self-interest.

There are not no teams in later generations who want to replicate Bohr's success, but they can generally only maintain it within a small range - the so-called small range in theoretical physics generally refers to a discussion group of three people.

In contrast, the Institute for Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen in the 1920s was known as a holy place for physicists for its own reason. In the first 10 years of Bohr's founding, a total of 63 scientists from 17 countries stayed at the institute for a long time. Their model was also very similar to Cheng Jinzhou's current organizational model. The astrologers allowed them to come and go, using personal relationships as the basis. bond and try to prolong their stay.

It should be said that the team model established by Bohr is only suitable for modern times. It took until after World War II, but during that era, the Copenhagen model was wildly successful. The 63 scientists who devoted their academic youth here published a total of 273 papers and gave birth to 10 Nobel Prize winners. They include Heisenberg, the discoverer of the "uncertainty" principle, Pauli, the winner of Pauli's immiscibility principle, Dirac, the founder of the Dirac equation, and Schrödinger, whose cat is already famous. To the point of picking up beautiful women in bars - it is said that when Qian Xuesen returned to China, some American politicians said that he was worthy of 5 Marine Divisions, so the Copenhagen School could replace at least 50 Marine Divisions.

The two major physical achievements of the entire 20th century, the theory of relativity belongs to Einstein alone, and the quantum theory belongs to the entire Copenhagen School team.

The behavior habits of the star warlocks were so similar to those of modern physicists that Cheng Jinzhou could transplant the theories he knew without making too many changes. All that is needed is to guide everyone's behavioral habits and make them willing to share. On the other hand, it is necessary to adhere to the seminar format and continue in-depth discussions...

In just one month, the team's running-in period was successfully passed.

Research on alternatives to sodium oleate has also been fruitful. Xiang Xin discovered a new combination of oleic acid, which is not as effective as later generations, but is easy to make. Liao Kai made new discoveries about the mixing of animal fats, and dodecylamine hydrochloride was completely replaced.

Warlock Jiang Huangxing was also surprised by the performance of the entire team.

He originally wanted to see Cheng Jinzhou's joke, but now, he admired it in a restrained way.

Cheng Jinzhou also clenched his fists secretly, feeling very excited.

He has a clear understanding of his own abilities. If he wants to find his own way in mathematics or physics, it will be equally difficult after Ys's teachings. But leading and managing the team allowed him to see his potential.

The knowledge that transcends time, the grasp of the future direction, and the leisurely life are all what Cheng Jinzhou is good at and masters, and they are also the most important qualities for guiding the team.

"Maybe I can really do something on my own." The smooth process made Cheng Jinzhou even more confident.
