1921 10 Month 31 Day.

The Langham Hotel.

The third Bruce Conference is in full swing.

At the meeting the next day, the bigwigs had a more in-depth and intense discussion.

They were even about to quarrel.

When scientists argue in meetings, they are no worse than ordinary people.

The venue lost the elegance and sophistication of the first day and turned into a noisy vegetable market.

The big guys' faces turned red and their necks became thick, and their saliva was flying.

There are too many unknown areas in physics today.

Since it is unknown, everyone is just guessing.

Why are you right and I am wrong?

Even Ridgway's theory of strong and weak forces was publicly questioned.

Because after the bosses went back on the first night, they finally had time to study these conjectures carefully.

With adequate preparation, the depth of the discussion went far beyond the first day.

Of course, this kind of quarrel is purely academic exchange and does not affect the feelings among everyone.

When Pauli saw such a grand occasion, he felt itchy and scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously.

Every cell in his body was cheering and trembling.

He wanted so badly to join the fight!

But unfortunately, when the bosses were arguing, he couldn't just interrupt.

After all, his mentor, Professor Sommerfeld, was still present, and Pauli felt that he should restrain himself.

"It's okay, I'll bear with it a little longer."

“The Fourth Bruce Conference is my home turf.”

Pauli was full of confidence in himself.

Prepare to debate at the next Bruce Conference.

Let the world see the true Whip of God.

He really enjoys the feeling of persuading others.

Convince people with reason!

The pleasant and enjoyable meeting ended with everyone wanting more.

The third Bruce Conference finally came to an end.

At Lorenz's suggestion, Ridgway made a final summary speech.

He walked onto the stage with his signature smile on his face, his eyes slowly sweeping over the crowd.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he set the tone for the meeting.

“I was lucky that the conference was a great success.”

“It far exceeded my expectations.”

"Although I co-created the theory of relativity with Professor Einstein."

"But personally, I actually prefer quantum theory."

"Relativity studies macroscopic space-time matter."

"And macroscopic matter is made up of microscopic particles."

"At a higher level, the microscopic properties of particles, taken together, determine the macroscopic behavior of the matter they form."

“The transition from relativity to quantum theory is like Leeuwenhoek starting to observe cells through a microscope.”

"We physicists can finally use the microscope of quantum theory to observe the largest cell of the universe."

Wow!
Everyone didn't know how serious it was.

In their view, as the founder of both relativity and quantum theory, Professor Bruce should treat the two pillars equally.

I didn’t expect the other party to publicly declare that he prefers quantum theory.

If this gets out, it will definitely make physicists studying quantum theory extremely happy.

Compare quantum theory to a microscope and the universe to a cell.

This kind of imagination is simply invincible!

That kind of domineering spirit deeply shocked everyone.

“With the rapid development of atomic science and quantum theory, we are gradually able to truly understand the nature of the world.”

“It’s nothing more than two points.”

“First, what is the essential composition of the world?”

“Second, what are the operating rules of these components?”

"From atoms to nuclei, and from nuclei to protons, we have gained a deep understanding of the fundamental composition of the world."

"That's all different types of microscopic particles."

"Protons, neutrons, electrons, photons."

"Of course, it seems to me that there should be other microscopic particles."

"These microscopic particles, no matter what kind, obey the rules of quantum theory."

"Quantum theory is the law of operation."

"Our next step is to explore the limits of microscopic particles and perfect the limits of their operating rules."

Wow!
From the perspective of the essence of philosophy, Li Qiwei profoundly summarizes the future of physics.

It gave everyone present a feeling of seeing the light after the clouds had cleared.

It was as if at this moment physics had become a handheld toy.

Finally, Li Qiwei suddenly raised his voice, waved his right hand vigorously, and said enthusiastically:
“So, to some extent, everyone here is a pioneer of human civilization.”

"It is you who guide the direction of human civilization."

"And every Bruce Conference is a supreme meeting that influences the direction of human civilization development."

"Hundreds of years ago, the great voyages of discovery promoted the birth of modern civilization."

"And now, what we are doing will give birth to the second era of navigation."

"Only this time, it's not the ocean, it's the sea of stars above us!"

"Use wisdom as a sail, refine the sun and the moon as an anchor, travel the sea of stars, and pursue the shore of truth."

"It is our duty!"

boom!
The whole place was shocked!

Everyone felt goosebumps all over their body instantly.

It was as if the soul was shouting and trembling.

Provide guidance for human civilization!
Explore the sea of stars!
What a supreme honor this is!
Looking back at tens of thousands of years of human history, we have not even been able to touch the edge of the stars.

But now, everyone has infinite confidence.

Because they firmly believe that the theories they are currently studying can create new technologies for mankind.

At this moment, everyone truly realized the vastness of Professor Bruce's mind.

"He has the entire universe in his mind!"

~~~
The third Bruce Conference professional meeting was a complete success.

The content of this conference will also be published in a book for physics professionals to study and refer to.

It will surely cause endless sensation at that time.

As everyone was leaving the venue, Li Qiwei suddenly discovered that Bohr was holding a thick notebook in his hand.

He was curious, so he asked:

"Bohr, are you taking notes?"

Bohr smiled and replied:
"Yes, I continued the habit from the first and second sessions."

"I wrote down the contents of the meeting in handwriting."

"I plan to pass this Bohr Notebook to my children in the future."

Li Qiwei took the notes handed to him by Bohr and flipped through them casually.

The recorders of the first Broglie Conference were de Broglie's brother Maurice and Bohr.

The notes recorded by Bohr at that time were popular in the physics community and even won Laue the Nobel Prize.

The content recorded by Morris is a bit dry in comparison.

So, for a while, Bohr's notes were almost deified.

Due to the special nature of the Iron Throne in the second term, Bohr alone served as the recorder.

However, what he recorded in his notes was not the final version published.

There are a lot of his own thoughts in it, all of which have been deleted.

This is also what Li Qiwei requested.

Meeting minutes and personal reflections should be strictly distinguished.

The content of public speeches and discussions by bigwigs such as Li Qiwei can be recorded and published.

However, the personal thoughts of the participants will no longer be made public, otherwise it will cause unnecessary misunderstandings. Taking this into consideration, Li Qiwei decided to implement a professional recorder system starting from the third session.

One person will be randomly selected from the assistants or students of each conference leader to serve as the recorder.

What the recorder recorded was all the public information of the Bruce meeting.

In this way, Bohr could focus more on thinking rather than simply recording the content of the meeting.

However, people in the physics community have already gotten used to it and it has become a habit.

No matter who recorded the contents of the meeting, the booklet is called "Bohr's Notes".

It’s just that what Bohr had in his hands was the real original version, while others could only get a printed version in a unified format.

When spiritual energy is revived one day, Bohr's book will be the real artifact, and everyone else's will be just derivatives of the artifact.

The notebook that Li Qiwei is reading now contains all of Bohr's thoughts on the three Bruce Conferences.

Moreover, the content of the third session is obviously more profound than the previous two sessions.

He couldn't help but praise:
"Bohr, very good."

"Your insights into the reconstruction of quantum theory are very illuminating."

"A hundred years from now, maybe your book will become a historical relic."

Bohr was very happy after hearing this.

He suddenly thought of something very interesting.

"Teacher, how about you predict what the world will be like in a hundred years?"

"I wrote it down in my notes as a prophecy for future generations to verify."

"This makes my notebook more unique."

"Hey, the version that others saw didn't have this."

Suddenly, Bohr added:
"But you can't talk about the fantasies you just summarized."

Li Qiwei smiled, he understood what Bohr meant.

That is to be specific in details.

This question made him feel dazed, and countless familiar scenes seemed to flash before his eyes.

Suddenly, the picture changed suddenly, and a series of incredible scenes appeared.

The universe is a vast and sacred red.

Li Qiwei was in a daze.

Soon, he smiled and said to Bohr:
"."

The more Bohr listened, the more shocked he became.

Without anyone noticing, a flash of white light seemed to appear on the cover of the notebook.

1921 11 Month 1 Day.

Royal Society Lecture Hall.

A conference that has attracted the attention of countless people in the scientific community is about to be held.

Discussion meeting on the establishment of the International Science Union Council!

This is an important meeting that concerns all scientists.

Professor Bruce, the foremost scientist of the time, took advantage of the Third Bruce Conference to raise his voice.

We need to unite scientists from all over the world to form a powerful force.

The news shocked the scientific community.

This kind of courage makes everyone admire him.

Countless people talked about it.

“I feel like this is a bit like establishing a scientific party.”

"My goodness, a group of the smartest people in the world united together, it's scary to think about it."

"If anyone angers them, they might turn the earth upside down."

"Physicists, chemists, biologists, they all have their own unique weapons."

"."

Ordinary people can think of this, and certainly so can the governments of European countries.

However, they did not intervene immediately.

Because this is just a federation, far from a real founding conference.

They have neither reason to come forward nor the need to exert influence.

This requires coordination work involving all aspects.

Governments think they can sit back and wait for cranky scientists to come knocking on their doors.

Some people even secretly disdain:
"It's just the fantasy of a bunch of nerds."

“No matter how powerful science and technology are, they must be subject to power.”

“Scientists are nothing more than tools in the face of power.”

However, how could these people know that Li Qiwei did not come to this world to be servile or kowtow to anyone.

He wants to turn the world upside down.

Now he is just planting the seeds and waiting for the right time in the future.

When the mushroom pops, I am the only one!

I just want to set up a scientific alliance, whoever is in favor shall be against it!
The lecture hall of the Royal Society of London is full of stars.

Countless bigwigs from scientific societies were invited.

They are all kings in their respective fields.

International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, International Union of Biological Sciences, International Mathematical Union, International Astronomical Union.
Not only did the British government not oppose it, but it strongly supported the conference.

As if announcing to the world:

"The British Empire remains a world leader in every field."

In this war, Britain was on the victorious side.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see his weakness.

Because it is not as invincible as it was one or two hundred years ago.

At that time, Britain controlled four oceans and deployed military forces on seven continents, making it the undisputed world hegemon.

All countries are crawling at its feet and trembling.

And now, the jackals have discovered that the lion is old.

An even more earth-shaking battle is constantly gathering momentum.

We’ll know who’s the boss after a fight.

now.

Sherrington, president of the Royal Society of London, had a ruddy face and chatted and laughed with bigwigs from all sides.

Such a grand event made the Royal Society’s status at its peak.

If a scientific alliance can really be established.

This is a well-deserved science center.

When Li Qiwei brought Rutherford and other physics giants into the venue.

Sherrington stepped forward quickly, took Li Qiwei's hand, and joked:
"Bruce, you really know how to stir up trouble."

"It was you who wanted to hold the meeting, but I, the president, was left busy as a madman."

Li Qiwei waved his hand and said proudly:
"Professor Sherrington, I think many places in the Royal Society have fallen into disrepair and are a bit shabby."

“It’s not consistent with its identity as a science center.”

“As a member, I want to do my part.”

When Sherrington heard this, he was stunned at first, then he burst into laughter.

"Oh, Bruce, this is not possible."

Many bigwigs around smiled knowingly and had a great discussion.

Then, Sherrington suddenly leaned close to Li Qiwei's ear and whispered:
"Bruce, tell me the truth."

"What exactly is this scientific alliance you want to establish for?"

When Li Qiwei heard this, he understood that someone might have asked Sherrington to pass on a message.

He smiled casually:

“What can scientists do when they get together?”

"Of course, we discussed science."

"The rumors about the Party of Science are all nonsense."
