If Chen Feng's first leg was a solid step in the field of art, then his second leg was a big split in the field of science.
Time goes back to 2020. He finalized the Star Research Institute with lightning speed, and dragged and seduced Ou Guohua and Lai En into his huge invisible business territory.
The two are one bright and one dark. One
is in the front line, attacking the city and capturing the stronghold for the Star Research Institute in market development and customized procurement of materials and equipment.
The other is hidden behind the scenes, sitting in the Star Research Institute, exhausting his wisdom and talent, studying madly, and constantly deepening his understanding of the transformation of results in materials and energy in the field of applied physics.
Ryan lived up to Chen Feng's high expectations. He successfully turned the new materials and solar panel technologies that Chen Feng had only given answers to, omitting countless processes, into laboratory products.
He also extended his research to the upstream production line, designed a variety of new and improved equipment, and successively broke through the production processes of various front-end raw materials.
Afterwards, Ou Guohua sent out a strong sales team, holding the design drawings of these upstream production lines, waving checks or threatening, and constantly improving the upstream production lines.
In 2022, the pre-process is the most mature, and the polymer organic super-tough fiber that can be used as the strings of the new musical instrument Sisma and can be used in more production and life fields has completed the production workshop debugging. The first batch of products has rolled off the production line and appeared at the World Expo a month later, showing amazing wear resistance, load-bearing capacity, extreme elasticity, extremely strong delayed recovery ability and other unique properties. After Ou Guohua publicly announced the relatively reasonable selling price, it attracted widespread attention in the industry.
Almost at the same time, Lu Wei took out the brand-new musical instrument Sisma, which was handmade by Chen Feng himself, and used it to replace the guitar for accompaniment, re-interpreting "Across the Starry Sky", making this starry sky rock shine with true brilliance and return to the level of its due historical status, which is comparable to the eight classics in Zhong Lei's "Octetone".
Ordinary people became curious about the new musical instrument Sisma because of the sudden rise of "Across the Starry Sky", and then learned about this new super-tough fiber material.
The exposure of both professionals and ordinary people formed a superimposed effect, and the global market for the first product of Xingfeng Research Institute was opened up, and orders from all walks of life and fields came in like snowflakes.
Chen Feng immediately gave an order to restructure Xingfeng Research Institute into Xingfeng Technology Group. The institute maintained its organization and focused on research and development.
Xingfeng Technology was established to focus on raw material supply, product manufacturing and marketing.
The equity changed, and Chen Feng emptied his personal liquid funds in Xingfeng Entertainment. He used his equity advantage and absolute control over technology to suppress Ou Guohua at an internal closed-door meeting.
Chen Feng completed the unilateral capital injection, and his shareholding in Xingfeng Research Institute increased to 67%, while his shareholding in Xingfeng Technology fell to 52%.
At that time, Ou Guohua still had no doubts. After all, he could earn more after the restructuring. Moreover, Chen Feng still held a high proportion of shares in Star Technology. Chen Feng would not mess with his own money.
Everything went smoothly. In the next thirteen years, new materials such as ultrafine conductive fibers, organic optical fibers, and tungsten selenium diodes that can be loaded with 0.5 nanometer semiconductor processes were produced one after another.
In 2035, Star Technology Group completed the transformation of all the results of the nine major technologies, especially the room-temperature superconducting metals and new solar panels that were launched almost simultaneously in the last year, which was simply earth-shaking.
In this year, the two most critical elements of the energy problem that has troubled mankind for a century disappeared in an instant.
The two major problems are the efficient transportation of electricity and the means of obtaining electricity.
Controlled nuclear fission nuclear power plants were eliminated on the spot!
Controlled nuclear fusion still has its value, but its value lies mainly in Chen Feng's recognition of this technology!
With his own strength, he really dragged mankind into the next era.
Everything is as Chen Feng expected. Xingfeng Technology Group has grown into a truly hegemonic enterprise, and it can even be said to be the most hegemonic under modern technology.
The biggest essential difference between Startech and other multinational giants is that the technological fields it has conquered are unique to the current era, leading the era by at least 20 years, with no competitors at all, and its patent hegemony and technological monopoly advantages are unbreakable.
As long as it is unwilling to teach others, others cannot copy it even if they want to.
And because of the differences between China and the United States, Startech does not need to do superficial work to deal with anti-monopoly. It only needs to support two different agents and distributors in the same European and American countries when exporting products.
Chen Feng announced this at the end of 2035, and many ordinary people were shocked and realized the connection between the two.
After all, one is an entertainment empire and the other is a high-tech empire. Although they have the same name, their business scopes are completely unrelated.
Chen Feng did not deliberately promote it, and few people knew about it except those in the know.
Then everyone was stunned.
Just when everyone thought that Chen Feng would make a fortune by relying on the two empires, he suddenly went "crazy".
With a series of dazzling and confusing operations, he completed a major transformation of his business in just half a year. He
kicked over the two empires that belonged to him!
He sold Xingfeng Entertainment and only took Meng Xiaozhou away.
He forced Ou Guohua to give in, and personally gave away the Star Research Institute, which he had invested countless efforts in and was about to reap huge profits and make him the richest man in human history, from personnel to laboratories, to Ouhe Group.
His exchange condition was the patent rights of the nine major technologies.
It was hard to say who lost and who gained, but Ou Guohua really didn't want to agree, but Chen Feng's demand was to share the patents with all mankind for free.
Chen Feng held a 67% stake in the Star Research Institute, which controlled the patent rights, and got absolute control.
Ou Guohua, who had dominated the business world for decades and had been successful in conquering cities and castles, was completely powerless to resist and ended up in a miserable defeat. He had to accept the Star Research Institute, a complete research institution with great potential, and merge it into the Ouhe Research Institute, which greatly strengthened the strength of the Ouhe Group and also put an end to Ou Guohua's idea of letting his fat son Ou Junlang, who was useless, control the trillion-dollar group.
Old Ou really didn't dare to entrust such a major historical mission to his son who only wanted to sing, because it would definitely crush the fat man.
On the surface, Ou Guohua made a fortune, but everyone knew that he was not happy.
From then on, losing Chen Feng, a towering tree in science, would hurt everyone.
Chen Feng sold all his shares in Star Technology Company and completed the forced cashing out. His personal assets shrank sharply from a peak of nearly 200 billion US dollars to 100 billion.
Chen Feng also drove away Ryan, who could not understand his behavior.
Afterwards, Chen Feng began to share the nine major technologies with the world at a very low price or almost for free.
The world thought he was really crazy and was destroying his trillion-dollar empire with his own hands.
Everyone wanted to know why, but it wasn't until decades later that people got a glimpse of the truth in Ryan's memoirs.
In Ryan's memoirs, he wrote:
"I remember it was a moonlit night, and the osmanthus tree in his villa was in full bloom. He stood under the pavilion with his hands behind his back. I thought he called me here to discuss the next strategy of the institute." "
He actually told me..."
"After he finished speaking, I couldn't calm down for a long time. I asked him why. What did I do wrong? If you are not satisfied with my work, I can leave without complaint. But don't belittle your achievements like this."
"He smiled. He asked me if I still remembered what he said. This sentence was said on the third day after he published "A Collection of Conjectures of a Madman". I went to see him with a pilgrimage-like mood, wanting to talk to him about this great work. He didn't talk, and I didn't understand. I asked why he said that."
"At that time, he said, 'It is the work I have completed, so I should let it go. I must look forward. How much time do people have in their lifetime? Lying in the credit book of the past will only make oneself decay and emit a disgusting stench.'"
"I said that this book was written by you the day before yesterday, how can it be a credit book of the past?"
"He said again, 'Yes, but so what? Ten years ago was the past, but the day before yesterday was not the past? The moment I stopped writing, it became the past.'"
"I finally understood his state of mind. That day I bowed deeply to him, then turned and left. This conversation determined what kind of person I would become in the second half of my life, and I was fortunate to have lived up to my mission."
...
In 2035, Chen Feng, who has hundreds of billions of dollars in assets, started his second entrepreneurial journey.
He appointed Meng Xiaozhou as CEO, recruited heroes from all over the world, and established the Star Technology Investment Group.
He began to sponsor innovative projects around the world.
Even if the project only has a rough concept, if he thinks the concept is feasible, he will not hesitate to spend a lot of money to help people realize their dreams, or help others fall on the road to pursuing their dreams.
He became the most popular investor in the global scientific field. Many scholars who have ideals but are trapped in routine work in universities and research institutions come to him with their wild and unrecognized ideas, and then get his funding.
Chen Feng's investment was too irregular. The fields he favored were extremely wide and unrelated.
Biology, computers, artificial intelligence, materials, energy, medicine, environmental protection, automobiles...
He was involved in at least hundreds of projects in more than a dozen categories within a year, and he also said that he would invest in more projects in the next few years.
Many people thought that Chen Feng would lose all his money and quickly squander hundreds of billions of dollars.
What was unexpected was that in 2040, his assets increased to 240 billion, more than doubling in five years.
Most of his seemingly random projects actually succeeded!
Then... he changed again!
With a huge amount of funds of more than 200 billion US dollars, he turned to the aerospace industry with an extremely decisive attitude.
This time, he directly acquired almost all private aerospace companies and research institutes in China, Europe and the United States, and even pulled China Aerospace Corporation, European Space Agency, and NASA into his own camp.
How?
Money!
He spent a lot of money!
No matter what you want to study, as long as it is helpful to the development of the aerospace industry, I will spend money.
You just need to provide people, and I will cover your staff salaries and research costs. And the results you have made with my money, I will share them with you for free!
His behavior is simply a hundred times more sincere than the so-called naked donation of a certain person, commonly known as a sucker.
But he really did it, and he did it for sixty years.
Ryan, who had already reestablished his empire in the field of applied physics and finally freed himself from his influence, once again gave up everything and joined him.
This time, Chen Feng did not chase Ryan away, but let him stay and officially become his scientific research assistant.
Yes, this time Chen Feng not only spent money, but also people. He also plunged into the laboratory and took the lead in developing power engines.
Although he seemed to have not received systematic learning and his ideas were often very fanciful, the amazing thing was that the direction he pointed out was basically correct.
Even though his steps were often very big, the researchers under his command could not reach the end point he required by groping all the way, but they could still leave behind many useful results along the way.
With Chen Feng's reckless investment, the aerospace industry caught up with the energy, computer, new material, and Internet industries, and quickly surpassed them, eventually leaving them all behind. In
these sixty years, Chen Feng launched Kamisama 1 and Kamisama 2 in 2060, the year he and Zhong Lei got married. The two spacecrafts chased Voyager 1 and 2 straight into space. Four years
later, Kamisama 1 and Kamisama 2 flew out of Pluto's orbit and entered deep space, gradually fading away and no news has been heard since.
Although some of his previous investments are still increasing in value, Chen Feng's personal assets have shrunk from 240 billion to 170 billion.
In 2071, Chen Feng launched the Jinyiwei No. 3 and No. 4, which had more power, more energy storage, and stronger signal transmission source performance. Six years later, No. 3 and No. 4 still followed in the footsteps of their predecessors. Chen Feng's personal assets shrank to 110 million.
His crazy fireworks behavior began to be ridiculed by the world.
But it can't be said that it was completely useless. After all, with the development of cutting-edge technology in the aerospace industry, many peripheral products have gradually fallen into the homes of ordinary people, becoming a practical technology to improve social productivity and the quality of life of ordinary people.
But people's hearts always change. Even the aviation fields of various countries that have always supported him gradually want to back off, thinking that his fireworks are too meaningless.
If it were in the previous timeline, Chen Feng would be deserted by everyone again. Fortunately, this time his achievements are too high and his personal prestige is too great. After promising not to set off fireworks for no reason again, Chen Feng managed to control the situation again.
Everyone thought he was completely obedient, but unexpectedly, he had been making a big plan.
In 2103,
Chen Feng sent off Zhong Lei, who had known him for 82 years, and launched the last Jinyiwei No. 5, which consumed all his remaining property.
This is the largest spacecraft in human history, equipped with the latest solar wind and cosmic radiation energy collection system, retractable solar photovoltaic film, a recently developed medium-sized controlled nuclear fusion reactor, the latest medium-sized medium engine that can eject super-heavy particle streams, a small recyclable ecological system that can stably provide food for hundreds of people, various types of multifunctional intelligent auxiliary robots, amplified radio signal transmitters, and so on. The reason
why Jinshiwei V is so well prepared and still has the support of countries around the world is that the spacecraft is planned to take a gorilla, a dog, a turtle, some insects and various types of plants to the earth 400 million light years away.
Theoretically, it will run out of energy after 150 years, then start gliding in space and arrive at Proxima b in 600 years.
Of course, it is impossible for these animals to live to the day when Jinshiwei V arrives at Proxima. People just want to know whether the isolation layer on Jinshiwei V can block the unknown cosmic radiation in the deep space environment, and how long the spacecraft designed and built with the wisdom of contemporary humans can fly reliably.
The ultimate standard for assessing reliability is when the plants and animals on it are unexpectedly wiped out.
Such research is of course meaningful, as it allows humans to know how far they can go in deep space and guide the direction of the next step into the universe.
But three days after the launch of Voyager 5, when the spacecraft was about to pass through the orbit of Mars, people discovered a problem. Master Chen Feng was gone.
Later, people discovered that the "gorilla" who had been trapped in the ecosystem and eaten and slept for three days took off the hat of his disguise, revealing a face that did not look like a centenarian, but at most a man in his sixties or seventies.
He blinked triumphantly, then easily took back the control of Voyager 5, fine-tuned the orbital direction, and Kingsguard V chased in the direction of Voyager 2 again.
"Everyone, I'm leaving. Don't miss me."
When Chen Feng himself saw this video a thousand years later, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
I'm such a show-off!
Chen Feng felt that his behavior was a little out of control after he "left".
No, it was completely out of control!
Before he left, he planned very well. He had done almost everything he should do, and then he could transfer to the main line of the aerospace industry. Then he could enjoy his life, quietly pretending to be cool while watching others busy running around to make their own money. There
was basically no problem with the main line of the plan's execution. It was he who lost control.
The promised easy, comfortable and stable life, is it not true?
He personally participated in the progress of each project.
He said he would let Ryan go, but he still went to the Star Peak Research Institute every day and never had a moment of leisure. He
even worked overtime on the sci-fi movies.
After the transformation to the Star Peak Group, he said he would just be a big money-spending boss and invest, but he often rolled up his sleeves and rushed in to do it himself, and was completely exhausted.
In the 100 years of the 21st century, the technological progress has been so fast that in 2103, a large spaceship that could carry a small number of people to the outside of the solar system could be theoretically developed. In addition to relying on his nine major technologies and "The Madman's Conjectures", his own efforts are also indispensable.
Chen Feng was filled with emotion. He did not expect that a galactic human who stirred up the world and surpassed his time, and went all out to fight, could cause such a change.
What's even more cruel is that he actually rushed out in person at the age of 107.
Before leaving, he left a simple letter to humans.
He explained his motives.
He believed that travelers would bring alien civilizations and cause wars.
The previous Jinyiwei 1234 artificial intelligence spacecrafts all failed because they had weak on-the-spot response capabilities, insufficient power, and could not change the search and capture strategy in time according to the actual situation, so he decided to go out in person.
Unfortunately, he failed in the end.
Twenty years later, Master Chen Feng's Jinyiwei 5 sent back a message.
The master passed away at the age of 127.
The spacecraft was still able to operate autonomously without any fatal defects, but Master Chen Feng's body could not hold on.
Chen Feng, the first pioneer in human history, died alone in space.
The cause of death was aging.
Although he was a galactic human, his DNA telomeres had changed, making him more resistant to aging. His normal lifespan should have been 200 years or even more.
But he could not withstand such endless self-suppression for a hundred years.
Master Chen Feng left an audio message.
"I'm out of the warehouse, and I feel good. The universe is really big, and the Milky Way is really far away. I really hope you can come and see it. I also hope that one day in the future, my burial place can become a famous historical site for future generations to admire. But there is a prerequisite, that is, there is still a future for mankind. Hahahaha, this joke is too cold. Sorry, I tried my best."
His voice gradually faded, and then Master Zhong Lei's "Sharp Edge Revealed" composed for him sounded again.
He died in his own BGM.
Chen Feng stretched his waist lazily. He had been reading materials for four or five hours in a row, and his mind was a little dazed.
He temporarily turned off the stereoscopic projection in front of him, looked up at the ceiling of the walk-in closet, and didn't know what to feel in his heart.
Should I be happy?
Or depressed?
My mood is so complicated!
I am almost moved to tears! Am I so awesome? Why didn't I know it myself?
If I had known that I would be so strong after letting myself go, why did I work so hard?
I would just write a tip sheet when I go back, and then wait to see the results, right?
I feel so regretful. I should have used that month as a vacation. I
really want to hang up and be a salted fish.
Although I am known as the Iron Man Master Chen Feng in the world, I also want to take a vacation occasionally!
But he blushed a little, thinking carefully that he didn't work very hard. Every time he went back, he spent most of his time moving things, and then he came here.
No matter, sooner or later I have to give myself a break, move things and rely on hanging up, and taste the feeling of pure hanging up.
Before turning a new page in history, Chen Feng thought so.
