Chapter 821 It feels so good to have someone who cares about celebrating together.(1/2)
The European media has an alarmingly sharp sense of smell. This incident that happened at the European Meteorological Center actually appeared in the newspapers of major European mainstream media in just two days.
"Academician Qin Ke and Academician Ning Qingjun, winners of the Xia Guo Nobel Prize, have played a major role in less than two weeks after joining the European Meteorological Center!"
"The Nobel Prize winner participated in the development, and the European Meteorological Center developed a high-altitude extreme abnormal airflow disaster early warning system, successfully avoiding several air crashes!"
"No need to worry about encountering extreme turbulence when flying! The aviation safety factor has skyrocketed!"
"Major airlines have begun to install high-altitude extreme abnormal airflow disaster warning systems, and the light of science from Xia Guo shines on Europe!"
"The European Aviation Agency said: The new system can perfectly avoid dangerous airflow at high altitudes, and airplanes are still the safest mode of transportation in the world!"
The most amazing thing is that the Times published a press release titled "European Meteorological Center reveals new results, aviation safety enters a new era!" and reported in detail the 27-minute experience at that time.
Of course, the storyline has been greatly beautified, and all the participants in the incident appeared with a great and upright image, such as Qin Kening Qingjun's superb performance, everyone at the European Meteorological Center responded calmly, and the executives of major airlines were decisive
Courage and the courage to make decisions, etc...
When Qin Ke saw this news on the Internet, he strongly suspected that it was a manuscript written by the European Meteorological Center itself, because even the director of the Meteorological Center, Mr. Figueiredo, who has made little achievements, has been praised many times as a "definite commander".
——In any case, these news have greatly enhanced the reputation and status of the European Meteorological Center, as well as the popularity and positive image of scientists from various countries, including Qin Kening Qingjun, among the European people. It can be said that everyone is happy.
Of course, there are actually many inside stories about this incident that have not been reported by the news media.
For example, according to the contract, the source code and mathematical modeling process of the "European High-altitude Extreme Abnormal Airflow Warning and Flight Avoidance Route System v1.0" software system are all disclosed and shared with the European Meteorological Center, but the promotion and installation process is relatively complicated.
, after temporarily mobilizing nearly a thousand outstanding programmers and conducting a three-day emergency code review to confirm that no loopholes or hidden backdoors were found in this software system, airlines across Europe officially signed an agreement with the European Meteorological Center
After signing the contract, the corresponding clients were installed in their respective aviation headquarters systems.
Moreover, in the early stages of facing the warning information and avoidance route suggestions sent by the "European High Altitude Extreme Abnormal Airflow Warning and Flight Avoidance Route System v1.0" software system server, all airlines adopted a semi-manual review and semi-automatic method.
It was not until the stability and reliability of the software system were verified that fully automated operation of the client became mainstream.
Qin Ke also understands Europe's attitude. After all, "science has no borders, but scientists have nationalities." It is impossible for European airlines to unconditionally trust a software system developed by Xia Guo scientists. Airlines will have
Such a change in decision-making is naturally due to the fact that the "European High-Altitude Extreme Abnormal Airflow Warning and Flight Avoidance Route System v1.0" software system has been completely handed over to the European Meteorological Center for subsequent upgrades and operation and maintenance. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun
It is no longer involved and will not have any authority over the software system.
For Qin Ke, such a result has been expected for a long time, and there is no feeling of being "plucked". What's more, this software system was developed based on the previous important results of the European Meteorological Center. During the development period
It is also inseparable from the joint efforts of more than 100 experts, scholars and professors in the entire team. Besides, 15% of the software license fee obtained by the European Meteorological Center each year will be divided into Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun’s United States according to the original agreement.
in the account.
Even though the research and development funds for this software are provided by major airlines, so that the license fee is set very low, almost all European airlines have purchased it, and they are not members of the European Meteorological Center, or they have not shouldered the relevant scientific research funds.
In other countries, you have to pay relatively expensive licensing fees.
So on average, Xu He's annual licensing fee adds up to almost 60 million euros. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun can get 9 million euros of it, which is about 70 million yuan in exchange for Xia Kingdom currency, and they don't need to pay more in the future.
Follow up on any operation, maintenance and optimization work.
In addition to these benefits, the most important thing is that they have obtained full authorization for the "European High-altitude Extreme Abnormal Airflow Warning and Flight Avoidance Route System v1.0" software system, which can be used or modified in Xia Guoli without having to report to European Meteorology.
Center report, pay any fees.
In addition, members of the entire research team received a generous bonus.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun originally agreed to only receive a bonus of 500,000 euros like ordinary researchers, but a group of airline executives were particularly grateful to them and wanted to get closer to each other so that they could have more work in the future.
For the opportunity to cooperate, I simply waved my hand and gave the two of them an additional bonus of 5 million euros.
In other words, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun received a remuneration of 5.7 million euros (of which 200,000 euros was a fixed monthly salary for that month) for ten days of scientific research work. This does not include the annual license of about 9 million euros.
Licensing fee dividends.
It’s so easy for top scientists to make money.
The dividends will not arrive until the end of next year, but all the 5.7 million euro bonus has been transferred to the two people's American accounts.
Only then did the two of them remember that their bank accounts in the United States had been left unattended, and they had been automatically buying and selling U.S. stocks through the previously written trading model. Because the amount was only over ten million US dollars, neither of them paid much attention to it. They had not done so in the past year.
It’s rare to open a US stock account to take a look.
When I opened the U.S. stock software and took a look, I was immediately shocked by the amount of money inside.
The principal invested by the two people before was mainly 6 million US dollars from two scientific breakthrough awards, as well as bonuses from international awards such as the Philippine Prize, the Crawford Prize, the Wolf Prize, and the Nobel Prize, adding up to 1,000 US dollars.
It’s less than 10,000 US dollars, but the amount seen at this time has grown to 120 million US dollars!
This does not include the 5.7 million euros (approximately 6.27 million U.S. dollars) that just arrived!
The two were surprised and delighted. Upon closer inspection, it turned out that it was because technology stocks in the US stock market had exploded in the past six months. The Nasdaq rose by more than 40% in just six months. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun’s previous trading model
It was written according to the idea of trend investment, and also added option leverage. It played an amazing effect in such a unilateral rising market, making the total amount in the US stock account snowball like a snowball.
Every time Qin and Ke won an international award, the prize money was invested in it, further accelerating the snowballing speed, and finally reached an astonishing total of 120 million US dollars!
In other words, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun’s U.S. stock accounts now have close to 860 million yuan (the amount converted back to Xia Kingdom currency)!
Even though the total market value of Qingning Technology founded by the two has exceeded 9 billion yuan, and its profits have continued to grow, money is just a string of symbols in their eyes, but they were still surprised to see the series of zeros in their account numbers.
——Isn’t it too easy to cut the leeks of the US stock market?
Looking at the current upward trend of U.S. stocks, the two of them have not optimized or adjusted the automated trading model for the time being. They have only reduced their positions by half, freeing up US$60 million in funds.
It is not easy to exchange such a large amount of foreign exchange domestically. Of course, they will choose to stay in the bank card account in the United States. They just instructed Qingning Technology CEO Zhou Shutao to set up a small office in the United States and strive to acquire an office.
A small laboratory for seawater and fresh water purification, and in the name of that small laboratory, we will see if we can purchase some high-end experimental equipment that cannot be obtained in China, and this 60 million US dollars will be used as start-up capital.
The above-mentioned things are just small things that Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun deal with after tea and dinner. After all, they are a bit busy at the moment.
After completing the "Response to Extreme Abnormal High-Altitude Airflow Disasters in Europe" project, the two people only celebrated briefly with the European research team, and then turned their attention back to solving the problem of "Response to Domestic High-Altitude Extreme Abnormal Airflow Disasters."
Uncle Yang was very efficient. On the second day after the phone call, staff from the National Meteorological Administration contacted the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory and a dedicated person sent relevant disaster monitoring data in the past six months.
After discussing with Jiang Weixian, Qin Ke and Jiang Weixian directly mobilized most of the manpower in the Fluid Mechanics Laboratory to temporarily form a "Domestic High Altitude Extreme Abnormal Air Flow Disaster Response" research team. With Shimmer as an assistant, they seized the time to collect massive data and conduct preliminary research.
Analysis and processing.
So on December 22, when Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun officially returned to the command positions of the "domestic high-altitude extreme abnormal airflow disaster response" research team, there was no need to start from scratch.
However, the domestic data quality and the overall level of the team are far behind the European Meteorological Center's research team. Qin and Ke can only put aside unimportant work for the time being, such as the quality gap problem of the "Yang-Mills equation".
Focus on this project.
Fortunately, they don't need to worry too much about other scientific research work on their hands. The research on chip materials guided by "Mr. Q" is currently progressing smoothly. They are still conducting technical research according to the experimental plan, trying to optimize the organic chemical phase deposition technology to form
The extremely thin single layer of molybdenum disulfide and tungsten disulfide is planned to be ready after the Spring Festival.
In terms of research on topological superconducting materials, the team is also focusing on following the new direction deduced by Qin Ke, using light elements to partially replace heavy elements in topological insulators to reduce relativistic effects such as spin-orbit coupling of heavy elements, and then regulate them.
The energy band structure, elimination of metallic topological surface states, and high mobility require tens of thousands of attempts. It is estimated that satisfactory results will not be achieved until the middle of next year at the earliest.
Most of the national extreme and abnormal weather research team has been redeployed, and the remaining dozen people can only continue simple research to avoid project interruption.
The research on the six group projects of the Yuanzhou Qingning New Energy and Freshwater Resource Recycling Technology Research Center was relatively smooth, especially after attending the Nobel Prize ceremony, the leaders such as Ding Sibo and Zhou Zhishu devoted themselves to the research like chicken blood.
, led the team to achieve many breakthroughs in magnetic permeability, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and low-temperature liquid hydrogen storage technology for magnetic fluid power generation, which did not require Qin and Ke to worry.
As for the secondary optimization of the perfect desert sweet potato in the Lime Plant Breeding Laboratory, as well as the use of computational seed science to research and develop various new crops, it is a long research work. Qin Ke and his two people have left it aside for the time being, leaving it to Wei Xueming.
Lead a team and do research slowly.
Therefore, in addition to supervising the studies of various postgraduate and doctoral students every week, and regularly giving lectures at Qiuzhen Academy and the Department of Mathematics and Physics, the two of them can devote all their time to the project of "Response to Domestic High-altitude Extreme Abnormal Air Flow Disasters".
Qin Ke soon discovered that although the frequency of domestic flights encountering extremely abnormal high-altitude airflow disasters was much less than that in Europe, it was not because the number of domestic airflow disasters was less, but because of the vast territory of the Xia Kingdom.
Even if there is an extreme high-altitude abnormal airflow disaster, flights may not encounter it. In Europe, there are many small countries, the aviation industry is extremely prosperous, the routes are dense, and there are an endless stream of flights every day, so the probability of encountering extreme airflow disasters will be much greater.
Xia's varied topography also makes it more difficult to predict extreme high-altitude airflows, not to mention that the density and accuracy of meteorological data collection cannot be compared with Europe.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The situation is worse than imagined. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun can only invest more energy and strive to achieve the same level of more than 95% as in Europe under limited conditions.
prediction accuracy.
Fortunately, the two of them already have a complete data model and code in their hands. These are the collective wisdom of the best meteorologists, physicists and mathematicians in Europe. They have completed the integration and optimization, and are based on this.
,Completing the optimization and modification of the domestic model and software system in more than a week is not an unattainable dream goal.
…
Time rushed to the night of December 24th. The wind and snow whizzed by outside the window, but the room was as warm as spring.
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were still busy writing calculations in the study, trying their best to optimize the prediction model based on domestic meteorological data so that it could achieve finer accuracy at a coarser granularity.
At this time, the door of the study room was suddenly knocked "dong dong dong".
Qin Ke was a little surprised. It was already half past nine in the evening. Usually after nine in the evening, people in the garden villa rarely disturbed him and Ning Qingyun. Who would knock on the door?
But Ning Qingyun exclaimed softly, then stood up and opened the door.
Qin Ke happened to calculate a key point and did not stop him when he saw it. He just said softly, "Wife, be careful when walking" and continued to immerse himself in calculation. He only heard the door open, but Ning Qingyun did not talk to the person.
Instead, he walked straight out.
Qin Kezheng was a little strange and was about to look back when he suddenly heard Ning Qingyun exclaimed in surprise.
Qin Ke was so excited that he dropped his pen without thinking, got up and ran out.
His heart was beating nervously. Of course Ning Qingyun would not encounter any danger at home, and there were guard posts by Wei Feng and others outside to protect him, but it was inevitable that some accidents in life would not happen.
Such as accidentally slipping and so on.
