The last topics are dark matter and dark energy.
Although never observed, even quantum theory fails to explain why the mass of the observable universe is far from sufficient. Thus, how to accurately connect quantum entanglement with the quantum geometric structure of space-time, and describe their dynamic interactions, remains an urgent but difficult challenge at present.
The most most most important aspect was that past research at least had the papers of predecessors for reference.
But when utilizing the toolkit he developed to study these problems, there was almost no meaningful reference at all, relying solely on brainpower to slowly consider the complex structures of space-time and to devise corresponding mathematical structures.
It was this that had even Qiao Ze, who recently felt exhausted and had to pause this line of research, take a break by solving Goldbach's conjecture to rest his mind.
The challenge of the intellectual peak lies in preparing to solve this series of problems by oneself in order to eventually unify micro and macro perspectives under one grand framework. At the same time, it is necessary for the four fundamental forces to achieve unification.
This grand framework should not only provide a detailed and accurate description of the microscopic world but also explain why most of the mass within galaxies is unobservable.
To say it's an exaggeration, this is definitely the most challenging scientific problem in the history of human civilization. Normally, it would probably take several generations of effort to see if we can touch the periphery of this series of questions.
At most, we can only say we have touched the boundary of this core issue.
If this series of problems can truly be solved, it also represents a leap in technology.
Just as Edward Whitten had predicted before, just solving the graviton problem might lead to the development of a series of applications based on these theories. For example, graviton energy conversion devices, gravity engines, and so on...
If this framework is indeed constructed, it probably won't be long before humanity can truly leave Earth to develop new worlds.
Therefore, it can only be considered as a long-term plan.
Even someone as optimistic as Qiao Ze isn't certain he can completely solve this problem in his lifetime.
His goal is to advance the research of this work as much as possible and, in the process, develop as many mathematical tools as possible for studying these problems. Even if he can't solve the issue entirely, he at least wants to leave enough of a knowledge legacy for the next generation of humanity to thoroughly address these questions.
The most joyful thing for Qiao Ze during this process is probably unraveling the many mysteries.
For instance, when Edward Whitten and his team members verified the existence of the Containment Graviton using the models and equations he provided, it made the microscopic world in his mind clearer and more concrete, which was quite delightful.
So after a brief rest, having solved Goldbach's conjecture and found that Riemann's hypothesis was still difficult to solve, he once again directed his main energy back to researching this problem.
Other matters like deep-sea cluster research exploration systems, material models, or the discovery of new elements are just details or by-products of the main research, merely diversions.
After all, Qiao Ze was gradually understanding the social nature of people.
He wanted to do his research unfettered, but ultimately he needed Read the latest chapters on NovelHub - completely free!
The Licheng Group led by Su Lixing served as his backup plan.
If he became unhappy at Xilin University of Technology, he could always open his own research institute at Xilin Licheng and continue this kind of research without any impact. The financial capabilities of Xilin Licheng were more than enough to ensure the ongoing progress of his research.
So now, Qiao Ze didn't mind spending a little effort doing some things that would bring the people closer together.
And Qiao Ze found that doing these things didn't really waste much of his time.
It's just about caring from time to time.
The engineers at the various research and development centers, with the cooperation of Dou Dou, were able to complete tasks perfectly.
Although Dou Dou really couldn't do research, it displayed an extremely strong ability in resource allocation work.
Especially in the management of human resources.
Qiao Ze thought that even if he did it himself, he couldn't do it as well as Dou Dou.
Most importantly, Dou Dou had an innate advantage; the rules it set were considered fair by everyone by default. Moreover, complaining to people was useless.
With the fairness value almost maxed out and Dou Dou willing to spend money, it was enough to motivate the engineers in the research center to the highest degree of enthusiasm. Not just them, even the students who had signed agreements to assist in the research center burst with great enthusiasm for work.
Because as long as they had done work and registered it, their contribution points would be reflected in the system, and bonuses and subsidies would be sent directly to the students' personal accounts without going through their supervisors. At least within a small scope, it equated to a genuine case of more work, more gain.
The reason it's a small scope is mainly because, so far, only Xilin Licheng plans to introduce Dou Dou's system. It's said that other places want to introduce it, but when they learn that people cannot actively control or modify the system, the conversation stops.
Of course, Qiao Ze has no interest in promoting this system further and will certainly not actively recommend it to others. He is very clear about how much resistance there would be for other units to truly advance this system. A technology involving fundamental interests, no matter how advanced, will not be able to progress without an appropriate opportunity.
But the influence or, should I say, the tentacles of Dou Dou's resource allocation is still slowly expanding.
The opportunity naturally came with the supply chain of the deep-sea cluster exploration systems.
The enterprises incorporated into the supply chain had to register their employees related to the product lines in the system. The salary system would not be managed, but additional bonuses would be distributed according to a series of indicators such as production efficiency, product quality, yield rate, and so on.
So in a strict sense, everyone is actually living a fulfilling life.
This includes Dou Dou, but some things always happen at inopportune times.
It's beyond anyone's control.
