At lunch, several people who had come to Chen Feng to express their dissatisfaction sat at the same table with Mendelssohn, Lawrence Ihlen and others.

Being an opinion leader, his status in the academic circle is naturally not low, and his level is similar to that of Lawrence, Mendelssohn and others.

At the dinner table, the topic of conversation inevitably revolved around the revolutionary concepts proposed by Chen Feng in the morning.

Everyone commented on these conceptual things in their respective professional fields, and everyone had different opinions.

Everyone had mixed feelings.

Their scientific literacy and common sense were fighting in their hearts.

From a purely academic point of view, there was nothing wrong with the theories Chen Feng talked about in the morning.

These are all "conjectures" that cannot be falsified or verified at this stage.

It cannot be said that conjectures have no value, and that the people who put forward conjectures have no contribution to science.

The essence of the so-called "conjecture" is that the thoughts of the wise are ahead of the real world.

Being able to jump out of the limitations of the times, see things that others cannot see, and put forward a relatively reasonable logical argumentation process is a symbol of wisdom that ordinary people cannot reach.

However, philosophy occupies a greater weight in "conjectures" than science.

From ancient times to the present, the vast majority of conjectures have eventually been proven to be false.

But in the process of proving their falsehood, science is moving forward.

A small number of conjectures have become interim "truths" and have pushed the proposers of the conjectures to the altar.

With Chen Feng's current status, it is not excessive for him to put forward a few conjectures.

But the problem is that he proposed too many things at once.

In the past, when Chen Feng brought out "A Collection of Madman's Conjectures", it was still "reasonable".

But at that time, his things spanned the ages and were not too far-fetched, and others could clearly see the possibility of verification.

But this time, he proposed these things in one breath, spanning hundreds of years, as if he was promoting astrophysics, genetics and cancer targeted drugs in medieval Europe when the "heliocentric theory" was still popular.

This is simply heresy.

If it was really that period, people like him would have been burned to death.

Fortunately, the times are different now. Well, with Chen Feng's personal ability, he is not afraid of others trying to burn him to death now. No one has this ability.

"Dr. Mendelssohn, you seem to disagree with our views?"

One of the opposition leaders asked Mendelssohn, who remained silent.

While others admired Chen Feng's brilliant ideas and criticized Chen Feng's audacity, Mendelssohn was preoccupied and did not say a word.

When asked suddenly, Mendelssohn forced a smile, "I always thought that Mr. Chen's words had another meaning."

"Ah? What else could it mean?"

"Don't be kidding."

"Yes, we admit that he has achieved this at such a young age, which is amazing. Science does not talk about age, but only about achievements. We should respect him. But the problem is that he seems to have been indulged in the flattery of others and those theoretical results that have not yet been proven. He is becoming too arrogant and has lost his awe of science. Just like the word "madman" in the title of his book shows."

"Yes, I think he set the theme of this conference as the discussion of the development direction of human technology in the 21st century, and invited us all here to promote technological hegemony and let us follow his thinking."

"He is spreading the seeds of thought, trying to use one person's ideas to influence the thinking of all scientific researchers."

"Yes, he refused to even change his words to something a little more conservative."

"I don't think our request is excessive. His desire for control is too strong."

After all, everyone present was smart, and Chen Feng's intentions could not be concealed.

Of course, he did not hide it.

Everyone had noticed it before, but everyone had their own concerns and no one spoke out.

Now Mendelssohn's silence has aroused the blood in many people's hearts. You say something, I say something, everything that can be said and cannot be said, all poured out like beans from a bamboo tube.

"Everyone, please keep your mouth shut. I believe Mr. Chen would not do this given his character. He has no interest in power, otherwise he would not be so generous. Do you remember what he said before? He is a true practitioner of science without borders. He has been generously sharing his knowledge, and he has an unparalleled sense of responsibility and mission for the noble cause of building civilization. I believe his original intention was not to control anyone, he was just sharing his knowledge as always."

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Lawrence, who represented the Linton Institute, came out to calm the situation.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was slightly calmed down, but there was still some resentment on people's faces.

In fact, Mendelssohn should have said this, which would have had a better effect, but he was too worried and showed indifference to the debate at the dinner table.

He finally said something, but it only added fuel to the fire.

During the lunch break, Lawson called both Ellen and Mendelssohn.

Ellen pretended to be offline and just laughed it off.

Lawson knew that Ellen knew a little bit, but she was unwilling to say it, so he didn't force her to ask, but just asked Mendelssohn what she was worried about.

After being repeatedly questioned, Mendelssohn said, "You also know this, Dr. Lawson. Mr. Chen visited Area 52 some time ago and even boarded that spaceship."

Lawson nodded, "I know, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Chen got some information at that time. He shared it with us."

"I know this too, it's those three materials science technologies, they are indeed very powerful."

Mendelssohn shook his head, "Not only that, he briefly revealed to us the information about the civilization behind the ship. So I think his real intention should be to tell us that time is running out for mankind. Moreover, I think these "conjectures" he brought out should be the real things left for mankind by the alien civilization in that ship. This is the knowledge given to us by others."

"Hiss... this..."

Dr. Lawson gasped wildly.

Ellen's eyes lit up.

Mendelssohn is such an amazing genius!

He is so good at making up the story. He made up the story

well!

As a second-tier member of the Salvation Society who only read "The Black Hole Thesis" and got half of the truth, Ellen even thought that what Mendelssohn said might be the truth.

Otherwise, he couldn't explain why Chen Feng could be so smart.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Feng smiled and said to Ellen, who came to inquire because he couldn't restrain his curiosity: "Dr. Mendelssohn is indeed good at guessing. But he guessed wrong."

"Ah?"

"The Mi tribe ship did reveal some information, but it was not what he guessed. But it doesn't matter, don't worry about the details..."

Ellen asked again: "Then what will you do this afternoon?"

Chen Feng said without hesitation: "I will come up with a 100-year plan, and plan in detail the development of scientific research and productivity in the next 100 years."

"Huh?"

Ellen was also surprised.

In the end, he really didn't take back his words, but became more extreme.

"Is this too strong?"

Chen Feng shook his head, "No, I don't mind if someone objects."
