Chapter 1065

Switzerland.

Neural network science research center.

Sarot, who was standing in the hall, looked left and right, with a slightly unnatural expression.

It's not just that the word "nervous" is a little harsh when it's combined with a group of people in white coats, but also because his whole temperament is out of place here.

As for why he was here

This is a long story.

Since leaving the United States and returning to his hometown in Holland, Sarot, who has put down the fickleness of fame and wealth and is doing all kinds of research with a semi reclusive attitude, has made a series of outstanding achievements in the field of graphene with the experience accumulated when he worked with Professor Lu, and has become a bull man who can be remembered at least in the industry.

Such a result was unexpected even for him, so that when all kinds of awards and offers came to him, he was at a loss for a while.

Then Cornell sent him emails twice, promising $30 million.

However, the experience of being called by the FBI has disappointed him completely. He refused the offer without thinking too much.

Although the academic circles in Europe are full of the atmosphere of lethargy, and it is more and more difficult to see young fresh blood added in, it is still a good place for academic research in terms of his personal feelings.

Just two days ago, when he went to the academic conference in Geneva from Amsterdam, he suddenly received a call from an old friend who had not contacted him for more than 30 years, saying that he intended to show him something amazing.

So now he is standing here.

As he hesitated to call his old friend, a warm voice came to him from the side of the hall corridor.

"Welcome! My old friend, you are here at last! I've been waiting for you for a while. "

Sarot looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a fat old man like October's baby, whose hair was about to fall off, smiling and extending his right hand, he came up to him.

Trying to match the face to the name in memory, Sarot held back his curiosity about the guy's experience in recent years and shook his right hand.

"Nice to meet you. Let's talk about it We haven't seen each other in decades, have we? "

"Thirty seven years to be exact," Professor Miel continued, with a smile and a release of his hand, just like when he was a student. "It seems that it's hard for us to see since I started to study biology."

Sarot: " In fact, I haven't really understood your operation. You gave up a promising subject. "

"Aren't you the same? I gave up the computer and jumped into a bigger material science than biology. "

Sarot's eyebrows twitched and coughed softly.

"It's full of all kinds of accidents And I've found that materials science suits me better than computers. "

"The same with me, life is full of all kinds of accidents. However, thanks to the fact that computer is my first major, it helps me when I study neural network related topics... " Smiling, he clapped his old friend's arm, and Miel made a gesture to him, "stop gossiping, come with me. I said I would show you something amazing. "

When I was at the University of Amsterdam, both of them majored in information engineering. When Sarot got his master's degree, he went to Cornell University, where he met his tutor and became a material dog.

Fortunately, his tutor Keng dad returned to Keng dad, helped him to get a lecturer's position, and Sarot himself was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Instead of staying at Cornell University to do academic work, he ran to the Silicon Valley on the west coast, packaged the title of Professor of Cornell University by playing a Frisbee ball, and fooled a sum of investment to solve the funding problem, In Silicon Valley, we have a lab of our own Although it was finally acquired by Lu Zhou.

He admitted that he used to like running trains with his mouth full, exaggerating on trivial issues and drilling through the gaps in the rules, but most of the time he was forced to do so.

And who isn't?

As for now, he has already reformed and stopped doing those things.

I just don't know whether it's his illusion or something. Sarot always felt that he smelled the familiar taste in this old schoolmate of Miel

It's just like what I was a few years ago.

Sure enough, when he followed the professor to an office and watched him pick up a stack of papers from the corner of the table, which were still hot and touching, Sarot was a little shocked and angry.

"That's what you want me to see?"

Miel: "this is Dr. Z's paper! You should have heard that name, the man who saved the world. "Sarot: "I mean, you let me take a train from Geneva for an hour to get here, just to show me a paper that you can download as long as you board arXiv?"

It didn't seem to be affected at all by the anger flying with the spitting stars, said Professor Meier in an exaggerated tone.

"Oh, my friend, you didn't know that this paper was recently published in Biology In particular, how much neural network research in this direction What a sensation! "

"You've ignored the point," said Sarot

"But let's get to the point!" "Listen, we are scholars. Let's ignore these trivial things. Isn't the key to the problem the paper itself?"

"But you..."

"Enough! Those so-called "buts" will be discussed after we get the Nobel Prize

Wait a minute, isn't it me who should be angry?

How on the contrary lose in momentum?

He was a bit blinded by this situation, especially when the word "Nobel Prize" was thrown out by this guy, and his whole attention was distracted in an instant.

“…… The Nobel Prize? "

"Yes, the Nobel prize! This is a research result with absolutely hope to touch the Nobel medal! Its greatness is no less than von Neumann's influence on computers... "

Interrupting this guy's farting, Sarot said with a sour brow.

"But the author of this paper is Dr. Z, what does it have to do with you? What does it have to do with me? "

"Compiling framework of neural signal and electrical signal conversion"

sounds interesting.

If it was Dr. Z who solved the Martian bacterial crisis, the content would not be ordinary.

But the problem is

What does this have to do with him?

He's just a material scientist who studies graphene.

Seeing the confusion in the friend's eyes, Professor Meier explained patiently and endlessly.

"The point is that this paper alone won't win the Nobel Prize, even the Turing prize is a little bit worse. But he offers a chance to win a prize in the direction of biological neural network! Do you know what I mean? The only principle of Nobel Prize is the size of achievements, and what we are most worried about now is that the key problems have not been solved, and the whole research is stuck in the bottleneck, unable to make enough outstanding achievements. "

"But now, things have changed!"

"In this paper, we give a new explanation for the formation process of signal transmission and vision of biological neural network, and put forward a procedural framework for the mutual conversion of neural signals and electrical signals. This work is absolutely groundbreaking. Do you know what it will mean once the technology is completed? "

As he listened to Miel, Sarot looked at the paper in his hand and thought with a frown.

“…… Does that mean that things in science fiction movies can come true? I remember calling it the number one player. "

"It's not that superficial thing," cried Miel. "You think only of games? What I want to say is more shocking! He can even change our perception of the Internet! But it's too early for me to tell you. All you need to know is that it's a technology that will change the world! "

"You didn't answer my previous question," Sarot continued, closing his paper. "So what does this have to do with me?"

"Do you believe it's a technology that changes the world?" he said seriously

Sarot: " Because you said that, so I believe half

Miel: "thank you, there are still half! But even if it's only half, assuming that this technology can really be realized, do you think the Nobel Committee will not consider our name as the key person to promote the final result? "

Sarot: "Nobel seems to have no prize for computation."

"But there are medical and chemical awards! Think about it. Michael and his friend Sarot In addition, Dr. Z's research achievements have made outstanding contributions to the promotion of biological neural network research and the docking of neural system and computer system, and hereby awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry Considering that Dr. Z is mostly anonymous, the bonus will be shared equally by us. "

After clearing his throat, Professor Meier solemnly extended his right hand.

"I sincerely invite you, my old friend Would you like to join us? "

This time Sarot was silent.

Although it is far away from fame and wealth, the Nobel Prize is a medal symbolizing the highest honor in the academic world

To be honest, he's still quite moved.

After about five minutes of silence, he said.

“…… I think about it. "At the same time, a smile finally appeared on Professor Miel's face.

Although my old friend didn't directly agree, the expression has clearly revealed his inner activities

He was moved by the olive branch he had thrown.

After professor Sarot left, Professor Meier paced excitedly back and forth in the laboratory.

"There should be no problem with graphene. There are experts in neural interface materials. Let me think about the difference By the way! "

Suddenly an idea came out of his head, and Professor Miel's eyes lit up and he pointed loudly.

Without any hesitation, he ran to the computer desk and sat down, opened the browser and typed in a line of URL, then hit the enter.

Soon, a BBS with the antique style of the last century came into his eyes.

This is part of the dark net.

As a dark corner not included in the databases of major search engines, this forum with less than 10000 active users in the world acts as a trade hub in the Internet.

People use bitcoin to trade, as long as the Internet can do everything, whether legal or illegal, can offer a reward here.

After publishing the information about Dr. Z's email and phone, Professor Meier put up a bit of pay with a vengeance.

With a smile on his face, he quickly turned off the computer and leaned back on the chair.

What he needs to do now is to carefully study the huge amount of information in that paper, and then wait for Dr. Z's email and phone number to appear in his email.

Even though Dr. Z never left his contact information on the Internet, and never responded to the questions in the paper, there should be no things that hackers can't do in the dark net, where there are so many experts.

Although it may be rude to do so, it's all for science.

If Dr. Z can be recruited into his research team, there is no doubt that his research will be twice the result with half the effort.

I believe that with my eloquence, after a few words with myself, Dr. Z will definitely be moved by the terms he has offered
