Chapter 853: Knowing a Little, the Host is Dumbfounded (Part 2)
Next is the second question.
“What is the biggest difficulty you encountered in the process of developing a vaccine?”
This question is fairly common.
Jiang Fuyue: "Looking for new mutant strains."
"What's the difficulty?"
"Sample collection."
Li Shanshui: "Isn't this the simplest job that requires the least brainpower?"
“Mindless doesn’t mean easy.”
"Oh? How do you mean?"
"For example, the annual census in our country simply involves counting the population of every household and registering them. This task doesn't require a lot of mental effort, but it's not easy at all."
Li Shanshui: "Then can I understand that there was a shortage of manpower during the vaccine development period?"
Jiang Fuyue: "Not accurate."
Li Shanshui: "Can you explain it in detail?"
Jiang Fuyue: "Collecting samples requires entering the resettlement camps and coming into contact with infected patients. This is not a problem that can be solved by simply having more people. It requires both medical literacy and personal abilities of the participants."
"If you have helpers or a professional team to work with you to complete these, would the vaccine development work go faster?"
Jiang Fuyue: “Maybe.”
"You sound unsure?"
"In mathematics, you can say 1+1 equals 2, but in practice, who can guarantee that? That's why I say 'possible'. There's both a possibility of being greater than 2 and a probability of being less than 2."
Li Shanshui's eyes flashed, and he began to dig holes: "So, you think teamwork is not that important?"
Great, another question that wasn’t in the outline.
If you answer yes, you will inevitably come across as conceited and unsociable; but if you say no, then the previous answer will seem too fake and empty.
Jiang Fuyue looked at her deeply. Li Shanshui curled his lips and met her gaze without dodging or avoiding it, with a look of pride in his successful trap.
I just want to ask you if you are panicking?
Panic, that's right!
Little guy, now you know how powerful your sister is, right?
But at this moment, Jiang Fuyue suddenly smiled back.
Li Shanshui's heart skipped a beat, and the next second, he heard her speak lightly -
“I don’t think this is the right question to ask.”
"What?" Li Shanshui was stunned. Was this the first time someone told her that she shouldn't ask questions like that?
She is a host and a famous speaker in Beijing and Taiwan!
If she needs a guest to teach her how to ask questions, where will her face be?!
But at this moment, in front of the audience and all the cameras around, she had to bite the bullet and ask: "So how do you think I should ask it?"
Jiang Fuyue: "I won't ask."
"……ha?"
"I don't need to think about whether teamwork is important or not. And my opinion is of no use to others."
Then what are you asking?
"Yeah... Why does Sister Li only ask superficial and irrelevant questions?" After listening to Jiang Fuyue's words, a photographer smacked his lips carefully, couldn't help scratching his head, and muttered softly.
In fact, it is not as simple as "superficial" or "insignificant".
Li Shanshui planned very well. He started by asking some simple questions to reduce Jiang Fuyue's vigilance, while also looking for a breakthrough point on the "surface".
Once Jiang Fuyue stepped in, she would throw the most incisive questions at her, catching her off guard.
For example, regarding the question of teamwork, no matter whether Jiang Fuyue answered "important" or "not important", as long as she took the topic, Li Shanshui would then ask -
During the research and development process, Jiang Fuyue almost did everything single-handedly. Did she look down on the role of the team, or did she think that others were not worthy of being her teammates?
This instantly became a hot topic and a source of controversy.
What a great question? What a brilliant layout!
But Li Shanshui never expected that Jiang Fuyue would not play by the rules. She neither answered that it was important nor that it was not important. Instead, she said that her question was not well asked?
Don't be too wild.
But Li Shanshui has been famous for many years, and his reputation in the industry is not unfounded, nor is he easy to deal with.
Seeing that Jiang Fuyue didn't take the bait, she immediately changed her mind and made the worst and most regrettable decision in her career -
Chat about professionalism with Jiang Fuyue!
Li Shanshui once confused countless doctors, postdoctoral fellows, and even very famous scientists with his questions using his double master's degree.
She is also very confident in her scientific literacy, not only because of her educational background as a graduate of a prestigious university, but also because of the confidence she gained from constantly learning and absorbing the latest knowledge in various fields over the years.
Netizens once commented on her as: "The most scholar-like among the hosts, and the most eloquent among the scholars."
Li Shanshui: "I heard you have dabbled in various subjects?"
Jiang Fuyue: "I know a little."
Li Shanshui smiled: "Then let's talk about quantum mechanics?"
Jiang Fuyue nodded, her voice still calm and unperturbed by praise or criticism: "Okay."
Li Shanshui began her performance time——
"The electron double-slit interference experiment has been around for nearly a century, and the microscopic physics behind it has long been known. Quantum mechanics has also been tested by various other experiments, and its current extensions and applications are endless... However, ordinary people still have deviations from their so-called 'intuitive understanding' of it. This shows that there is still debate in the physics community about the interpretation of quantum mechanics. What are your thoughts?"
Jiang Fuyue pondered for a moment, and his brows gradually furrowed.
Li Shanshui's eyes lit up, thinking she was stumped.
Who knew——
"Actually, from what you just said, I don't quite understand what you're trying to say. You mentioned the double-slit electron interference experiment. If you're simply asking for my opinion on it, it's simple—in the early days, it was understood as the statistical result of a large number of particles. Until humans were able to pass electrons or photons through one by one... people discovered that even a 'single electron' could produce interference fringes. However, when instruments were installed behind the slits to try to 'observe' which slit the electron passed through, the interference fringes disappeared..."
Li Shanshui: “?”
Jiang Fuyue: "If you're asking about the significance of this experiment for quantum mechanics—oh, that's the interpretation dispute you mentioned—then I personally believe that the traditional Copenhagen interpretation holds that 'measurement' itself affects the observing system. Before observation, the electron wave function permeates the entire space, reflecting 'wave properties,' hence the interference effect... The electron wave function undergoes a so-called 'instantaneous collapse,' projected to a certain location in space, reflecting the so-called 'particle properties'... In fact, there's no need to argue about these issues. Use any theory that can be used. Whatever has been verified in experimental operations is correct. There's no need to worry too much about the representation..."
Li Shanshui: “?”
who I am?
Where am I?
Is the "quantum mechanics" she is talking about the same thing as the "quantum mechanics" I know?
