Technological Hegemony

Brazil.

When Wadi Chang woke up from the soft seats in the first class, the flight had already passed halfway, and in an hour and a half, they would reach Manaus, the largest city in the Amazon rainforest.

Heidi rubbed his eyes, and he was tired from the long-distance flight and jet lag. He just dreamed of his wife, a gentle Jiangnan girl, with soft skin like water, and delicate and pretty features.

Thanks to the magical friends of the stars, Di Wuchang just dated in a mood of trying. As a result, when he first met, he fell in love with his current wife and never left her again.

My wife is a student of history. A girl who looks a bit silly. When she always cooks rice or puts bath water, she suddenly thinks of something else, causing the water in the bathtub to overflow.

Or late when he was dating because of the wrong direction of the subway, came to Di Wuchang panting, and apologized to him in a panic.

In short, the wife of a graduate student, like a child who has not grown up, always does something weird.

But Di Wuchang liked her very much, and the two of them registered for marriage soon after they met. When his wife graduated from graduate school, they planned to have their first child.

"President Di, can I ask something?"

Wei Chen's voice interrupted Di Wuchang's memories.

As the earliest employee of Xingchen Technology stationed in Brazil, Wei Chen has been here for three years. He has become accustomed to wearing flip-flops and dating Brazilian women with big ass. Because he ate too much barbecue and drink too much beer, his weight finally surged to 200 pounds. Above, the skin is also tanned by the sun.

In short, if Wei Chen didn't speak Chinese, everyone would think that he is a native Japanese of Brazil. In this multi-ethnic country, there are many Brazilians of Japanese descent.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Di Wuchang said.

晨 Wei Chen grabbed his head and said, "Who are Wen Chengling and Wen Chengfeng? Are you worth a visit? Amazon primitive rainforest, I heard that the mosquitoes are bigger than ants."

Chang Diwu always smiled, "Of course it is worth it, that is, it is not convenient for President Luo to go abroad now, otherwise he will probably come in person."

Wei Chen was stunned.

Wenchengling and Wenchengfeng, it is worth Luo Jia to come to Brazil in person and go deep in the Amazon rain forest to find, can this be ordinary people?

Certainly not!

After a pause, Di Wuchang said slowly: "In March 1978, the first education institution in China that cultivated genius as its mission, the China University of Science and Technology Youth Class was formally established, and the Nobel Prize in Physics was proposed by the Nobel Prize in Physics. , Mr. Li Zhengdao. "

"Enron, Cao Yuan, Xi Zilan, Fang Yuanchu, etc., many of the company's leading figures are from the youth class of the Chinese University of Science and Technology."

Wei Chen nodded again and again, "I know, Mr. An, they are both twelve years old and go to college. It is really awesome."

Di Wuchang said, "Yeah, I am also very envious of President An's talent. However, the youngest record in the history of the Chinese University of Science and Technology Junior Class is not created by Enron or Cao Yuan, but by the brothers Wen Chengling and Wen Chengfeng. They are twins, and they were only nine and a half when they entered school. "

Wei Chen showed an incredible expression. He felt dry and hurried to press the service lamp. He asked the stewardess to ask for two bottles of cold drinks, one bottle for himself, and one bottle for Di Wuchang.

"Nine and a half years old?" Wei Chen unscrewed the drink bottle and said, "This is not possible, even if I was a teenager at the Chinese University of Science and Technology, I still have to complete the high school course. I was only in the third grade of the elementary school at the age of nine and a half, and the Wen family brothers went to college?"

Di Wuchang smiled, "It's pretty incredible, but with the status quo of our company, you should be able to understand that some people are born different, such as President An, he and President Luo are the smartest I have ever seen in my life. Perhaps the gap between people, people, is much larger than we think. "

Wei Chen stopped talking. Before he was sent to Brazil, his deepest feeling in the company was depression. Genius is everywhere, you have to be a dragon, and you have to lie on a tiger.

"Wen Chengling and Wen Chengfeng should not be considered geniuses, they are gods." Di Wuchang said, "And their growth experience is similar to Enron. They first went to college in China, then went to North America to study for a PhD, and then stayed in North America for research."

其中 "Among them, my brother Wen Chengling is engaged in laser, a tenured professor at Stanford University, and my younger brother Wen Chengfeng has learned biological genes and is a tenured professor at Harvard."

"According to the normal trajectory, the Wen brothers will soon become famous on the earth and become top scientists in the annals of history. Unfortunately, an accident 13 years ago changed all this."

Wei Chen heard this, and quickly raised his ears, "What happened exactly thirteen years ago?"

Chang Diwu always looked out the window and said with a little regret, "Thirteen years ago, the Wen brothers took their parents to Brazil for a trip, just in the Amazon."

他们 "Their mother slipped into the river and was eaten by a piranha school commonly known as a piranha. His father jumped into the water in anxiety and failed to return."

"At that time, the Wen brothers were on the upper level of the ship, and they hurried down after hearing the call for help, but it was too late. They wanted to save their parents, but they were firmly grasped by the crew."

"The saddest thing in the world is this. The Wen brothers witnessed their parents being eaten by piranhas. Listening to their screams, they saw that they had changed from two living elderly people to two white dead bones. The blow is not something anyone can imagine or bear. "

Wei Chen opened his mouth wide. He seemed to remember something suddenly. He took out his backpack and took out a yellowed newspaper from it.

Thirteen years ago, an article reporting that two North American tourists were eaten by piranhas was impressive in the fourth edition of the newspaper.

"General Manager Di, you asked me to find this old newspaper because it was because of the Wen brothers!" Wei Chen said excitedly, "But it says that two North American tourists died."

"Well, that trip was to celebrate that their parents got a North American green card in accordance with the law of kinship. They set off from North America, passed through Mexico and Colombia, and reached the Amazon all the way, and their end point was at the end of South America. "Ushuaia, Argentina, was a trip across the Americas." Di Wuchang said, "They were holding North American passports at the time, and the news reported that there was no problem."

"What then?" Wei Chen asked anxiously.

Didi Wuchang swallowed and spit, "The brothers Wen returned to North America with their parents' bones, and since then they have become weak and lonely. They have never contacted their classmates or teachers in the past.

"Gradually, people also forget their existence. After another two years, they suddenly sold the house, stocks, everything, and everything evaporated from the world."

"No one knows where they went, but according to their usual behavior, the death of their parents is a fatal blow to them, and it is no longer possible in the world."

"Time has passed like this. Until seven years ago, someone accidentally pulled out the manuscript of Wen Chengling, which was about ultra-ultraviolet light."

"It is well known that semiconductor manufacturing technology has evolved from three generations from 1978 to the present, from ultraviolet to deep ultraviolet, and from deep ultraviolet to extreme ultraviolet, and the next generation of extreme ultraviolet will be a photolithographic process. "The end of the line is ultra-ultraviolet light, an epoch-making process that mixes traditional photolithography with laser etching."

"As the chip size gets smaller and smaller, traditional lithography will become more and more powerless. We must introduce lasers into the field of lithography to really solve the problem and make the chip size one nanometer or even one picometer. "

晨 Wei Chen felt his heart beating faster, he suddenly realized: "Wen Chengling is the top scientist who studies laser!"

"More than that." Di Wuchang said lightly, "According to Wen Chengling's manuscript, the laser lithography field scheme he designed has reached 70%, and it can be said that it is quite mature. If it is not an accident of his parents, he is now It should have long overturned the semiconductor process and won the Nobel Prize in Physics. "

Wei Chen tasted the words of Di Wuchang, a complex complex of emotions flowing in her heart.

The road to genius is not always smooth. The Wen brothers have a lot of fate. If not for that trip, they should have stood on top of science, right?

However, if there is no such thing in the world, tragedy will happen like that, sad and sighing.

Wei Chen was paralyzed in the seat, he felt a little high blood pressure, thinking that he should not eat too much barbecue in the future, he should lose weight.

"So, when you got the Wen brothers in the Amazon area, you immediately came because the company will enter the semiconductor field next. We need Wen Chengling's technology. In this world, no matter who gets this technology, it will be Hold firmly to the lifeblood of the semiconductor industry. "Wei Chen said.

Di Wuchang nodded. "You are right. Xingchen Optics is the third department of the company. Since the first year of business, the optics department has been studying lithography machines. It has been nearly four years now. , But it's still one step away from real success. "

Wei Chen frowned. "I don't quite understand that Amazon is the sad place of the Wen brothers ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ Since they have already left, why should they come back? Facing the river full of piranhas, wouldn't they Will it be sad? "

Chang Diwu smiled, "You look down upon the spiritual power of the Huaxia people, killing the father's revenge and not wearing the sky together. Since ancient times, we are a nation with a tradition of revenge."

"Revenge?" Wei Chen felt inconceivable. "Only two scientists with no chickens?"

"Moreover, who do they plan to avenge? Have they eaten their parents' piranhas? How can humans avenge fish?"

Lu Diwuchang was silent at first, then nodded gently, "In our current situation, although my brother Wen Chengling is studying lasers, his younger brother Wen Chengfeng is a great biological geneticist."

"According to customs records, shortly after the disappearance of the Wen brothers, Brazilian customs have successively seized dangerous biological smuggling incidents, and some people smuggled China's most ferocious freshwater fish, blackfish, into Brazil."

Wei Chen was stunned again. Wen Chengling was a student of genes. Shortly after his disappearance, Huaxia's fiercest blackfish was seized by Brazilian customs. Does it mean that he wants to cultivate Huaxia blackfish to kill the piranhas of the Amazon River? Biological revenge?

If this is the case, the Wen brothers are not just scientists, but two ruthless people!

Wei Chen felt his back sweating upside down. He remembered the words of Di Wuchang again. According to the Chinese tradition, he would kill the father's enemies and would not wear them together.

After a long flight, the plane finally came to the largest city in the Amazon rainforest, Manaus.

Wei Chen and Di Wuchang didn't know what was ahead, waiting for them.
