Chapter 668: Inventor and famous person

"Boss Fan, you can see that you have recently made a fortune." Xiao Peng sat smoking a cigar, looking at Fan Zhong with a face of upstart.
Fan Zhong has already changed his car, not the original BMW but a Tesla model top.
Fan Zhong shook his head and smiled: "To be honest, boss Xiao, I really want to thank you for this."
Xiao Peng was stunned: "What do you care about me? Are you a bit exaggerated?"
Fan Zhong shook his head, "Boss Xiao, do you remember the charity auction?"
Xiao Peng nodded, and Fan Zhong continued: "Everyone saw me talking with you that day. As a result, what happened later became more and more strange in the circle. Countless people were curious about your identity. After all, what happened later was amazing. If you have such a deep background, it’s falling down. So many people want to check you out. But that day, apart from cheering for Miss Fang, you had a conversation with me. But that’s enough, and Miss Fang continued to pay , And I have more and more cooperation here, and more people are curious about you and feel that I have such a mysterious'friend' as you, so I deepen the cooperation."
Fang Qingya was surprised when she heard this: "I said how I have worked so smoothly recently. It has something to do with you."
Xiao Peng shrugged: "I don't know these things, I'm just an ordinary person, how can I have so much energy? It's all made up by these idlers."
Fang Qingya curled her lips when she heard this. Fan Zhong felt that Xiao Peng's pretence was too bad, and she quickly changed the subject: "Boss Xiao, why are you here? Are you here to visit the class?" He glanced at Fang Qingya.
Xiao Peng waved his hand: "In fact, it's really a coincidence. My car ran out of gas and I wanted to come in to refuel, but it happened to catch up with you guys who were filming."
After hearing this, Fan Zhong said hurriedly: "Yes, yeah, this car is really too difficult to handle without gas."
Xiao Peng smiled: "So you bought a Tesla, how about this car?" Tesla is a pure electric car brand, so there is really no need to refuel. This new company, established less than two decades ago, is known as the Apple company in the automotive industry.
When a man mentions the car, he will definitely be interested. Fan Zhongxing rushed to introduce: "This car is actually really good, full of sense of technology. I have a charging pile in my house, but it is not convenient to run long distances. I will send the car for maintenance this time. There is no way to drive him out. Fortunately, Tesla has more super charging stations, which is not too troublesome. However, this car also has a problem, that is, it consumes too much energy when it is below zero. Our northern winter is too much. It’s difficult. Well, it also inherits the usual characteristics of American cars, that is, the materials used are real, but the details are rough and there are many small problems that people are too lazy to fix, such as voice recognition failure, cab floor bulge, speaker interference I have encountered minor problems such as noise and loose sealant strips. But overall, this car is not bad."
Xiao Peng smiled: "As expected of a car named after Tesla, if you dare to name it, you must have two brushes in your hand."
Fang Qingya heard Xiao Peng's words and asked with a puzzled face: "Who is Tesla?"
Xiao Peng was stunned: "Fang Qingya, are you kidding me? You don't know Tesla?"
Fang Qingya shook her head: "I really don't know, I haven't heard of this person."
Xiao Peng was speechless:
In the future, it’s okay to read more books. Don’t be a joke to those illiterate stars. Remember, Tesla is one of the most like a traverser in history. It can be said that without him, just There is no world today."
Fang Qingya's eyes widened: "Is it that exaggerated?"
Xiao Peng nodded and said: "It's really so exaggerated. Tesla's full name is Nikola Tesla. He is a Serbian star-stripped countryman. He was more than a hundred years ago when most people were still using candles. In the era, the AC power system was invented and is still in use today, and the emergence of AC directly brought mankind into the second industrial revolution. This is Nicholas Tesla’s achievement."
Fang Qingya shook her head and said, "No, right? We learned it when we were in school. Thomas Edison was the father of the electrical age."
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "No, it's Tesla. Most people think of Edison as the light bulb invented by that guy. But the truth is that the light bulb was not invented by Edison. He just summarized and improved it seriously. After 22 kinds of bulbs manufactured by predecessors, he was the first to mass-produce and sell bulbs. In fact, in the early days of Edison’s career, Stella worked for Edison, and Edison promised to pay him the equivalent of one million dollars today. Tesla went to solve some problems with DC generators and motors. When Tesla repaired Edison’s machine and asked Edison for money, Edison said to Stella:
Stella, you don’t understand the Stars and Stripes. Humorous', Edison was actually neither a scientist nor a mathematician. He was the person who paid to hire them. Well, in the current words, he is just a CEO."
"But now many things were invented by Edison." Fang Qingya asked.
Xiao Peng smiled and shook his head: "Tesla is famous for discovering awesome things and never knowing to record them, while Edison is famous for his scientists running to the patent office once they have new discoveries. Now Almost none of the invention patents under his name are invented by him."
Fang Qingya asked curiously, "What about the next thing?"
Xiao Peng took out the cigar box, drew out a cigar and handed it to Fan Zhong. He lit a cigar and pretended to force Faner to make a full effort. Fang Qingya said: "After Stella and Edison broke up, He focused on his own AC system, which made Edison very unhappy, because he was marketing his DC system to the world at the time. The gap between the two is obvious. The DC system requires one power generation per square mile. Station, because the loss in the DC transmission process is too large, the transmission distance is limited. However, the AC wire is thinner, the voltage is higher, the transmission loss is also small, and the transmission distance is also far. The difference between the two is obvious."
"Is Edison sure to fail?" Fang Qingya said.
Xiao Peng shook his head: "What Edison is really powerful is his viciousness when he suppressed his competitors! He paid the nearby students to help him catch live puppies and kittens, and then showed the public puppies with AC power. Cat, convince the public that alternating current is very dangerous!"
Fang Qingya said: "That can't be said that he is most like a traverser, it's just that the role of alternating current is too broad."
Xiao Peng sighed and said, "Have you heard of Marconi? The Nobel Prize winner in Physics in 1909, because he invented the radio. In fact, Marconi's achievements were made by Tesla earlier. After Marconi became famous all over the world, Tesla said, "This guy Marconi is good, let him continue to use my seventeen patents." Tesla can be said to be the largest Fang’s inventor is not one of them."
"You know the radar? In 1935, it was invented by British scientist Robert Watson Watt, but in 1917, Tesla thought of this idea and directly gave it to the Star-Stripe National Navy, 18 years before Watt! "Xiao Peng said.
Fang Qingya disdainfully said, "Isn't it useless if he doesn't invent this idea?"
Xiao Peng explained: "Thomas Edison was the leader of the Naval R&D Center at the time. He persuaded the people at the R&D center that radar is an impractical technology. In fact, there are many examples of this."
"and also?"
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Of course, for example, it is well known that the discoverer of X-rays was William Conrad Helen, but in fact, Tesla had discovered X-rays a long time ago, and when X-rays were discovered, it was considered acceptable. To treat blindness and other diseases, Tesla warned that X-rays were very dangerous at that time, and he himself rejected medical experiments related to X-rays. However, Edison, as a long-time enemy, would certainly not let go of this great opportunity, so he I started to do X-ray medical experiments. His assistant Daly had to amputate his arm to save his life because he was exposed to excessive radiation, but he died of lung mediastinal cancer. So Daly was the first one. The Stars and Stripes nationals who died of radiation in scientific experiments. Edison was almost blind because of long-term exposure to radiation, so Edison never dared to approach X-rays anymore."
Fan Zhong, who listened to the side with gusto, couldn't help but interject: "This is a fool!"
Xiao Peng broke his fingers and continued: "Do you know who built the first hydroelectric power station and used Nicaragua Falls to prove to the world that hydroelectric power is a reliable energy source? It's Tesla! Who was invented for half a century? I started experimenting with low-temperature engineering before? It’s Tesla! Who held the patent for the future development of transistors more than a hundred years ago? Tesla! Who was the first person to record receiving radio waves from outer space? Who made the oscillator that could produce an artificial earthquake almost razed New York to the ground? Who invented the remote control? Who invented the neon light? Who invented the current electric motor? Who invented the radio communication? Including the wireless charging used today The technical assumptions are actually made by Tesla more than a hundred years ago. Oh, there is also a ball lightning, which is a form of lightning. It is spherical or nearly spherical and can be suspended in the air or moved at low altitude. The author Liu Cixin once wrote a science fiction novel based on this natural phenomenon, but this phenomenon is extremely rare! I know that today, no scientist has successfully produced spherical lightning in the laboratory-except Tesla It was successful once in 1890! Even the recently confirmed that the Earth has a resonance frequency is actually a crazy genius idea proposed by Tesla in the 1890s."
Now even Fan Zhong couldn't help but admire: "This Tesla is really a genius."
Xiao Peng smiled and said: "Anyone who can speak eight languages, remember to live a life of eighty-six years, and use it to invent and create is a genius."
Fang Qingya asked curiously: "So what do Tesla's current descendants do?"
Xiao Peng smiled and shook his head: "Tesla has lived for 86 years and never married. You think Tesla is two meters tall and handsome. He is very popular among girls, but he has never Accepted any date because he felt it would affect his work."
Fang Qingya asked her very curious question: "Is Tesla founded the company that produces Tesla cars?" After hearing her question, Fan Zhong also looked at Xiao Peng with confusion.
Xiao Peng smiled and shook his head: "It's a pity, no. Many people think that Tesla is smart and invented so many, it will definitely be rich, but unfortunately, everyone is wrong. Before he died, he was already bankrupt. He died in a hotel room. A few days before he died, he only lived on milk and biscuits. Because in that era, people needed to improve production, increase efficiency, and create wealth. Technology requires light bulbs and toasters. But Tesla’s contribution is a qualitative leap and revolutionary. When things that cross the age suddenly appear, people can only evaluate him in three words:'Neurosis' ! Do you think everyone is like traveling through novels. Going back to the ancient times and researching guns and explosives can make a fortune? If that's the case, people would have been killed directly! The reason? Too simple: evildoers are rampant, it! Take control, it!"
Fang Qingya sighed: "There really are such strange people. After listening to you, I really feel that this Tesla is like a traverser."
Xiao Peng smiled: "Actually, there have been too many people like this in the long river of history. Da Vinci, Wang Mang, and Liu Xiu, their stories can all be regarded as crossing characters."
Fang Qingya blinked her big eyes after hearing this: "Actually, according to what you said, I think you are like a cross character. I think when I first met you, you were still practicing a street stall. . See you live smarter than anyone else."
Xiao Peng shrugged his shoulders: "What's cool? If you run out of gas, don't you just come and refuel. Besides, look at me running around every day. It's harder than you."
Fan Zhong smiled and said, "Boss Xiao, you are running around doing big business. By the way, Boss Xiao, I really don't know what you do?"
Xiao Peng did not speak, Fang Qingya directly answered Xiao Peng: "He? He is a farmer, he is a fish farmer."
Fan Zhong listened to Fang Qingya's words and said with a smile: "Fang Qingya, I just said a few words to you, you don't have to tease me like that? Boss Xiao is a talent, you said he is a farmer? You think I will believe it. Huh?"
Fang Qingya's face was speechless, how can you tell the truth?
Fan Zhong looked at Xiao Peng, hoping to get answers from Xiao Peng's mouth.
Xiao Peng nodded: "Boss Fan, in fact, what I want to say is that Fang Qingya is really right. I am really a fish farmer and opened a small fish farm. Although I do some other small business in my side business, I His main business is indeed a farmer."
Fan Zhong frowned slightly: "Then I don't know Boss Xiao, what is your side job?"
"Oh, I opened a hotel, just got a five-star rating, and opened a small company, but it's just a decoration." Xiao Peng didn't lie, his salvage company was just a decoration.
But after Fan Zhong heard it, 10,000 grass-and-mud horses ran past in his mind. What the hell? Can you open a five-star hotel when you open a fishery?
Is it so profitable to open a fish farm?
