Chapter 243: Don't Push Me



To be honest, Qiao Ze really didn't know about this. Ever since he designed the material model, Huaxia was in an era where various advanced materials were emerging like a spring. He really didn't have the time to pay attention to what new and peculiar things were being created in Xilin University of Technology's material laboratory, because there were too many. However, all the laboratories that used the material model to design materials, all the useful experimental data were in Dou Dou's database. In particular, the Xilin University of Technology's laboratories were even controlled by the task system designed by Dou Dou, and even specific laboratory logs could be accessed. So Qiao Ze just had Dou Dou search the computer to locate the problem and then spoke into the phone, "Hmm, go ahead." "This material is very suitable as the intermediate, color, and clear layers for car paint. This way, minor scratches and bumps from daily use could be left unattended; after resting for about two to three days, they would self-heal, saving a lot of resources. Hmm, you know, this is quite competitive for the automotive industry." "Hmm, what's the problem?" Qiao Ze took the initiative to ask. The screen in front of him already showed the detailed information about this special paint and the research behind its development. This self-repairing paint was actually a defective product from the task system. The task Dou Dou posted in the system was for the outer layer material of Deep Sea Shadow's intelligent products. Because from the initial design of the Deep Sea Shadow cluster system, these intelligent entities needed to be submerged under the sea for extended periods, so the surface paint needed to be corrosion-resistant and also have some self-healing ability. After the material center at Xilin University of Technology took over the task, they began intense parameter tuning, which led to the creation of this material. The reason it's called defective is that although the paint possesses self-repairing capabilities, its long-term corrosion resistance in seawater is insufficient, and it affects the base material's ability to store electrical energy through the temperature difference in seawater. Also, once covered with this paint, it is ineffective at absorbing solar energy. But, although it's useless for the Deep Sea Shadow system, it has significant potential in the civilian domain. Not just for car paint but also for building facades; using this type of coating material could offer a higher cost-performance ratio. Also, Qiao Ze saw Dou Dou's analysis that mass production wouldn't be difficult, and its environmental impact wouldn't be that significant. "The issue is that although this material has been made for quite some time, it was designed using your model, but the committee in charge of overseeing the material models won't approve its commercial use. They say they're still assessing the material for possible use in highly confidential projects." "However, the professor over at the West Forest Laboratory told me they've already calculated a better alternative material and it's highly unlikely this one will be chosen in the future. So they wanted to ask if you could get the review committee to speed up the process." Qiao Ze glanced at the data Dou Dou was displaying for him in real-time. The feedback interface from the review committee wasn't indicating "under review," but was stuck at "pending review." "Got it, wait for my message." "Alright." ... After hanging up, Qiao Ze directly accessed the management committee's contact number from the system backend. Actually, Qiao Ze could understand some things now. For instance, more people doesn't necessarily mean higher efficiency, and quite the contrary in many cases. He could comprehend why the newly established model management committee was busy; a multitude of new materials with advantages were being added in batches, and each one needed concentrated approval about whether they could or couldn't be mass-produced. They had to give opinions and even be accountable for these decisions, so it made sense for the process to be slower. And Qiao Ze, in fact, preferred not to meddle in these chaotic affairs. Alternatively, he could simply let Dou Dou provide the industrialized preparation methods and directly authorize them in the simplest manner. However, Qiao Ze still decided to follow procedures and make a phone call. Or to say, he just needed to use this indirect method to show some people that he valued them and to express his position. With more repetition, the people in charge would understand how to interact with each other more harmoniously. Indeed, this approach was far more effective than any pale expression of attitude through language. This was Qiao Ze's summarized method of social communication, or to put it more bluntly, how Qiao Ze should navigate through the adjustment period of reconciliation with the world. It might not apply to others, but it was very useful for him. ... The system provided by Dou Dou had a landline number with no email address attached. This probably indicated that the management committee was also in a period of adjustment and nobody yet had the clout to make final decisions. When the management committee was established, they had invited Qiao Ze, but he had declined. Qiao Ze was not concerned about money, but that didn't mean he was unaware of the immense benefits the material model could bring. That was why when the Leap Up company's boss proposed to manufacture Dou Dou's body for free, he decisively gave away ten activation codes. Qiao Ze was more aware that when it came to vast interests, there would definitely not be a shortage of complicated issues. Only by staying out of it could he maintain a detached position. The phone rang for a long time without an answer. Qiao Ze then stopped paying attention and let Dou Dou keep dialing in the background. He went back to organizing some thoughts from the past few days. Especially the conversation with Edward Whitten yesterday, which informed him beforehand that containment gravitons truly existed. This was tremendously beneficial in further refining the Quantum Implicative Model.
