"It's fine if you can understand the spirit!" Cao Guorui replied unhappily, "I mean to let this kid directly enter the Archaeology Department under the name of our General Administration of Archaeology after graduating from high school."
"When he graduates from university, he can directly join our General Administration of Archaeology."
"Of course, it's not impossible for him to start working now, but he's still a little young..."
"So, what Team Nine salvaged is really the same as what that kid speculated?" Listening to the implications of Cao Guorui's words, Ding Guoxiang felt as if he had figured it out.
"More than that!" Cao Guorui affirmed, "Not only is it the same as what that guy speculated, but even the reasoning process is simpler than the thinking of some people in our department."
"As soon as we got it, we did some dating and determined that it was made around 200 BC."
"After that, we performed a computed tomography scan, or CT, on this thing."
"Because this thing is so badly corroded, we dare not draw any conclusions based on the appearance alone."
"The CT scan results show that this thing is indeed a differential engine, and there are a total of 27 gears of various sizes inside it."
"And there are information prompts on each gear."
"If it weren't for these hints, it would still be difficult for us to determine the calculation direction of this thing in a short period of time."
"After that, we divided the work and worked together based on these known clues, and finally determined that its maker was indeed Archimedes."
"And during this exploration, we took a lot of detours, and subconsciously we wanted to use a more scientific perspective to prove the rationality of this thing."
"If it weren't for Niu Pu's report, we don't know how long it would take."
"And after we deduced this kid's report many times, we found that there were no loopholes. All the clues were connected by this kid in a very peculiar way."
“Even though it doesn’t qualify as academic research.”
"But do you know what this means?!"
"It represents this kid's initial and most basic understanding of archaeology!"
"He did not regard this as a great cause, but like a detective, he expanded his thinking based on the existing clues and looked for more other conditions."
"Then these conditions are cleverly combined again with a complete story logic, and finally a result is obtained!"
"He's not working, he's enjoying himself!"
“He’s enjoying the process of exploring the story!”
"And it is often in the process of enjoying the story that we can notice the details that are difficult to notice at other times. After all, to us, the ancient times were just a story that had already happened!"
"This kid somehow fits the mindset that an archaeologist should have."
"You know, when something is becoming more and more perfect, the overall execution becomes more and more mechanical and loses its authenticity. In addition to a lot of professional terms, it loses the fun in the beginning."
"But now I see this in this kid. His appearance will inject new vitality into the entire archaeological community, a vitality that will return to the true fun of archaeology!"
As he spoke, Cao Guoxiang's emotions gradually became excited, and soon reached a peak:
"and!
”
"Besides, do you know what kind of impact this Difference Engine they discovered will have on the archaeological world?!"
"It is possible that it will change the direction of our archaeological research!"
"The technology in ancient times must be inferior to that of modern times, and all the myths are just legends!"
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo Reader to read books and keep up with the latest updates. It has a variety of reading voices and can be used on Android and Apple. ]
"In front of this Difference Engine, all subjective assumptions will be instantly destroyed."
"The technological level of this thing is so high that it's hard for us to replicate it even now!"
"You want us to use 27 bronze gears to make a machine to calculate solar and lunar eclipses. Without the real thing, the only answer we can get is a fantasy!"
"But now, this thing appears alive in front of us!"
“Its origin is somewhat related to mythology.”
"All of these were discovered by Niu Pu. If we ask the so-called experts in the industry to explore, they will basically choose to ignore the myths!"
“This is the biggest shock this thing brings to us!”
“....Is it that exaggerated?” After listening to Cao Guorui’s analysis, Ding Guoxiang swallowed subconsciously.
"Yes, it's that exaggerated!"
"Now you know how desperate I am!"
“Niu Pu, this guy is a treasure in the archaeological world!
!”
Cao Guorui immediately gave his affirmation.
Ding Guoxiang rubbed his brows with a headache, adjusted his mood, and then joked:
"Then you said yesterday that giving this kid a place would be a reward, and that's only if his college entrance examination score is not too bad..."
Hearing this, Cao Guorui fell silent for a moment, as if he had been choked enough by Ding Guoxiang.
After a long while, he finally said helplessly: "I was wrong, okay!"
"Grades are the culprit that destroys creativity!"
"If anyone tells me again that he has bad grades, I will slap him in the face!"
