The End of Technology

Chapter 5 The world is not either/or

Ning Zi's home is a two-bedroom apartment in an old family building on the east side of the county town.

This was the employee dormitory of the agricultural machinery factory in the village. The agricultural machinery factory at that time was a collective enterprise and had very glorious days. At least in the 1980s, the products of the agricultural machinery factory had radiated to the surrounding two cities and seven counties. However, in the two Thousands of years later, like other collectively owned enterprises, it declined.

The factory buildings have long since been sold, leaving only three five-story buildings built in the early 1990s.

Lao Ning joined the factory at the age of eighteen, taking over from his father. The brother of the union chairman in the factory helped him get this 63-square-meter welfare house, which has now become the last wealth of the Ning family.

Ning's mother went to Shenzhen Special Economic Zone with her sisters to work when Ning was six years old. After being dazzled by the outside world, she divorced Lao Ning when she came back. Then she returned to Shenzhen City and became a member of the special zone who dedicated her youth to the special zone. .

Initially, Ning Zi would receive two phone calls every year, but there was no news from Ning Zi since she entered junior high school.

So Ning Zi, who became sensible, was actually raised by Ning's father. Both men are very introverted, so you can imagine how boring their daily lives are.

This is probably why Ning Zi is addicted to doing questions.

After all, apart from studying, life really didn't give him much expectations.

Just like today, after Lao Ning brought Ning Zi home, Ning Zi went into his room with the kitten in his arms, while Old Ning took out his mobile phone and kept making calls outside.

Although Ning Zi has already reached adulthood, as Ning Zi's father, he will eventually have to take on these matters.

Ning Zi closed the door. He didn't care who Ning's father was calling outside. Instead, he carefully placed the kitten on the table, took out a laptop from the cabinet, and turned it on.

This laptop was awarded to him by the county education bureau after he received the admission notice from Huaqing University last year.

Naturally, the number one scholar in a small county in China's 18th tier cannot be compared with the number one scholars trained by key high schools in the city. But for Ning Zi, it was an unexpected surprise to own this laptop, even though the computer's configuration was not considered high-end. At least it comes in handy now.

What he has to do now is to sort out what he learned in the dream, or in other words, sort out the paper that Mr. March put into his mind.

Yes, the learning process just now was very strange, as if someone was transmitting knowledge into his brain. He even felt a dull pain in his head in his dream.

So he actually didn't fully grasp this paper.

In the words of Mr. March, this is just to give him some benefits in advance. It will take at least a month to master all the concepts and formulas in the paper.

For example, the paper used Fourier transform, a very common concept in mathematics, to a superb level, which at least amazed Ning Zi, who had briefly learned some integral transformations at Huaqing University.

In the words of Mr. March, this was just the least worth mentioning paper by its former owner. But when Ning Zi read the title of the paper, he realized that this might be a subject that he would never be able to tackle in his life.

"Proof of existence and smoothness of solutions of Navier Stokes equations". (Proof of the existence and smoothness of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation)

If Ning Zi remembers correctly, this is a world-class problem. When he was in Huaqing, he heard a classmate who had participated in the Physics Olympiad discuss this issue at night.

Ning Zi still remembers listening to his two classmates lying on the bed talking about fluid mechanics, fluid balance equations, turbulence and other issues. Finally, when they got to the N-S equation, he only dared to lie there and pretend to sleep.

It’s not that I don’t want to participate, it’s that I simply don’t know how to interrupt.

Looking back now, I suddenly feel that what they talked about at that time was actually very superficial.

If we must make an analogy, the students are discussing issues of universal application, but this paper uses gravity one by one to discuss various small-scale divergences in detail, and discusses the kinetic energy of fluid divergence in any small turbulence. Explore the control of these divergent kinetic energies on the solutions of equations at extreme scales...

In this way, Ning Zi was typing and drawing pictures quickly on the computer, restoring the papers in her mind, while systematically sorting out the knowledge in her mind.

There are also lemmas and theorems that I can’t figure out yet.

But this does not affect his ability to restore those complicated formulas and demonstration processes. By the way, it can also deepen memory and understanding. He was so attentive that he seemed not to notice when Ning's father opened the door several times.

Until nightfall, Ning's father finally knocked heavily on Ning Zi's door.

"Xiaojie, come out, your uncle is here."

Ning Zi woke up with a start, glanced at the kitten still lying on the table, and then looked at less than one-tenth of the thesis content that had been processed for several hours, then stood up and walked out of the room.

Three men were sitting in the small living room. There was a plate of pork head meat, a plate of braised dried meat, a bottle of Laobaigan, and three wine glasses on the coffee table.

The uncle picked up the cup and downed the glass of wine in one gulp. Then he said seriously: "I went to the police station in the afternoon and talked to Lao Li. He said that the issue of small children can be big or small. He I suggest you take Xiaojie to take a statement tomorrow, and when you are discharged there, he will call you all over for mediation."

"Lao Li said that the pickled goods are not clean, and the people in the agency don't believe what they say. During the mediation, they will help us scare the other party. Five hundred thousand is definitely impossible, but the medical expenses must be paid to them. If it goes out, we will have to pay tens of thousands more."

Ning Jie's eldest uncle, Ning Jian, took over from Ning Wei's grandfather a few years ago and became a small cadre in the agricultural machinery factory. In a small county town, I have a wide circle of friends, so I have some respect.

Ning Jie remained silent while Ning's father raised his head with red eyes and said angrily: "I heard from Xiao Jie that they were the ones who caused trouble first. There are so many people bullying our Xiao Jie, punching and kicking us. How can we still do this?" You want us to pay compensation? At most, they will only pay for medical expenses. They want to blackmail our old Ning family, so I will fight them!"

The uncle glared at Ning's father and said angrily: "Fight, fight, it doesn't matter how old you are, what should I do with the little kid? He is a top student. He will go to the capital to study and get ahead! Tens of thousands of dollars with the little kid. What’s a future compared with it? Today’s society is all about the law!”

Then, the uncle glared at Ning Jie again and said: "And you, Xiao Jie, why don't you go to school at all? Just review at home and prepare for the college entrance examination! When you arrive in the capital this time, you must be careful not to be fooled again. Come back in a hurry! I know you are in a difficult situation now. There is one hundred thousand yuan in this card. You should pay it to them first, and then pay it back to me when Xiaojie makes money! That’s it!”

After saying that, the uncle took out a rural credit union card from his pocket and slapped it on the coffee table.

"Brother, are you preparing this for Ning Xiao?"

"You don't have to worry about it! When Xiaoji becomes successful in the future, will he not take care of his only cousin? Besides, the money has to be paid back."

However, Ning Zi raised her head, looked at her uncle, and asked seriously and stubbornly: "Uncle, do you believe me?"

"Um?"

"I can go to college without taking the college entrance examination!"

"Um?"
