The rise of nanometers

January 19, 2016.

Wendover City is on the border of Nevada and Utah. This small city is located in the west of the Great Salt Lake. It is surrounded by mountains and deserts. It is a small place with a sparse population and inconvenient transportation.

Underground here, during the Cold War era of the last century, a missile launch base was built.

Over time, the base was abandoned in the 1990s, and the underground base and four missile silos were temporarily sealed.

Until around 2013, old antique underground bases like this were used as waste, and after modernization, they were turned into some special-purpose bases.

The salt sand base in the desert of Wendover City was previously used to store strategic materials.

However, at the end of last month, a special agency requisitioned the place and used the Yansha Base as one of its core headquarters to begin renovation and layout.

After more than half a month of preparation, Naoting quickly recruited nearly 300 people under the auspices of Valentine and others.

At the same time, 13 brain-related laboratories affiliated to the Noah Society, with a total of 3,581 laboratory staff, have been included in the jurisdiction of Brain Court.

Since it was renovated using a base with complete infrastructure, the Naoting headquarters quickly formed a preliminary framework.

Within the base.

The three giants of Brain Court met here again.

Jack Morgan is in charge of the brain-reading office, Aiken Hank is responsible for supervising the use of the brain-reading equipment, and as director Valentine, she is responsible for overall work and logistics.

"I have discussed the specific content of the inquiry with the board of directors, please take a look!" Jack Morgan handed a document to Valentine.

Valentin didn't put on any airs, he calmly took the document and looked through every question in it carefully.

In fact, the whole brain is not of the same mind. Valentine is from the new technology side, while Jack Morgan is from the Wall Street financial group, and Aiken Hank is from the military-industrial complex side.

After the completion of the brain-reading system, among the main R\u0026D institutions of this system, the New Technology Group contributed about 68.2%, the military-industrial complex contributed 21.3%, and Wall Street contributed the rest.

Obviously, the military-industrial complex and the Wall Street consortium are not confident about this technology. For more than half a month, they have secretly organized relevant researchers from their respective forces to secretly test and analyze this system.

After analysis, they can initially determine that this technology can indeed read part of the brain's information, but it requires specific information from the outside to stimulate the brain to generate feedback.

In addition, the brain reader is not permanently installed in the brain, which makes the military-industrial and financial factions feel relieved.

In addition, they also sent people to join Brain Court and wanted to tamper with it. Once discovered, as the weakest and most loose Neo-Tech faction, they would definitely be torn apart by the military-industrial faction and the financial faction.

Today is the day when Valentine, Jack Morgan, and Aiken Hanke will conduct a loyalty test.

Valentine read the document and handed it to Aikenhank aside. After the three of them confirmed that there was no problem, the loyalty test officially began.

In a clean white room with cool colors.

Valentine put on a hospital gown and had her hair shaved. The professional medical team gave her a general anesthesia and then made an opening through the jugular vein.

Imitate the infrared body scanner and terahertz scanner of Shennong Group to conduct a full three-dimensional scan of the body.

An implanted reader composed of nanowires and micro-robots travels upstream along the jugular vein and enters a designated area of ​​the cerebral cortex.

There are 28 readers in total, connected to external systems via nanowires.

Dr. Killian, who is responsible for the research and development of this technology, is outside the room at this time, quietly watching the whole process of the operation.

Beside him was Jack Morgan with a fake smile on his face and Aikenhank with sharp eyes. Jack Morgan glanced at Killian and then asked with a smile:

"Dr. Killian, is it possible to record some specific content into the human brain through brain waves?"

Dr. Killian thought for a while: "It shouldn't be possible. Dr. Wayne from the Seventh Laboratory is an authority in this field. You can..."

"He's dead," Aikenhank replied coldly.

"Uh..." Killian seemed to be frightened by the news, and it took him a while to recover: "Then Dr. Barclay from the Black Pine Base, he is also..."

"He died in a car accident last year."

Dr. Killian suddenly broke into a cold sweat and asked hesitantly: "Are there some of these?"

Jack Morgan, who was smiling, calmly explained: "Yes, something is indeed wrong. Someone is preventing us from studying brain information writing. The doctor is also an expert in this field. You should pay more attention to your personal safety."

Gulu! Killian smiled unnaturally: "Thank you, Mr. Morgan for your concern."

Jack Morgan waved his hand and continued to ask: "Still the question just now, what are the current problems in brain writing?"

"Hmm..." Killian thought for a while: "It is relatively easy to read brain waves, but to operate in reverse and use brain waves to input information to the brain, the difficulty may be several orders of magnitude higher."

"Be specific." Aikenhank asked coldly while staring at Valentine lying on the operating table.

"How should I put it? Because humans have autonomous consciousness, if unfamiliar information is forcibly inserted, it will cause memory problems in the brain, ranging from memory confusion to brain death in severe cases."

This answer did not exceed Jack Morgan and Aiken Hank's expectations.

They have also consulted many relevant experts before, and the conclusion is that it is difficult to successfully write to the brain for the time being. Intelligence agencies such as the FBI and CIA, their so-called brainwashing, not only requires the combination of drugs, but also long-term training, preferably from children. Start cultivating.

This kind of cultivation method is not only expensive, but also takes a long time, and there are also great uncertainties.

After all, people's hearts will change according to the environment. Even spies who have been trained since childhood will more or less have other thoughts after seeing this colorful world.

Two hours later.

Valentine's surgery was finally completed.

Next, you only need to rest for one day, and you can start taking the questionnaire tomorrow. Although all three of them have read the contents of the questionnaire, it is difficult for humans to control their true inner reactions.

Of course, if you are a mentally ill person or someone with severe schizophrenia, they are immune to this kind of brain reading to a certain extent.

After Valentin woke up from anesthesia, he lay limply on the hospital bed.

The rest room is also white and cool. Except for medical staff who come to check the body regularly, other things are not allowed to appear in the rest room casually.

She would remain in this environment during this loyalty test.

the other side.

Bismarck, the capital of North Dakota.

The headquarters building of the Hesse Group, a very low-key technology company invested and controlled by the Thomas family.

Before 2013, Hesse Group did not exist. In order to cope with the sudden change in the world structure, Thomas merged part of the family's industry and the three technology companies he controlled to form a super large technology company.

The top floor of the Hesse Building is Thomas's private office.

"Sir, Ms. Valentine is already conducting a loyalty test." A middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper reported respectfully.

Thomas, who was reading, put down the English version of The Three-Body Problem in his hand, and Gu Jing calmly ordered: "Continue to pay attention."

"clear."
