Chapter 592: Chapter 583: Bewitchnt_2 Chapter 592: Chapter 583: Bewitchnt_2 He Xiuyu thought that if he didn’t ask, Chen Tianliang would be stuck wondering for who knows how long. It wasn’t that he disliked the man; he simply didn’t have much ti.
Chen Tianliang looked at He Xiuyu and finally began to speak slowly. “Chief Engineer He, do you believe that ti can travel backward?”
He Xiuyu was initially taken aback, as he hadn’t expected Chen Tianliang to ask such a question.
He smiled, “Such a question involves many factors, it’s not as simple as believing or not believing.”
Chen Tianliang got up from the sofa and started pacing back and forth in the room. Ordinarily, he was a calm and composed person, but at that mont, he couldn’t sit still because the statent he was about to make was utterly bizarre. He had gathered enough courage to speak.
“Chief Engineer He, I’ll get straight to the point. Do you rember when I first joined the inspection team and encountered you and Comrade Qiao Qingyu halfway to Xichuan?”
He Xiuyu paused for a mont to rember, then nodded. “I rember.”
“…During that trip, I fell asleep in the car and then I dread about many things from the future.” As Chen Tianliang spoke, his eyes displayed both eagerness and confusion. “You might think I’m spouting nonsense here, but I’m speaking the truth. I rember many of those visions quite clearly. You—Chief Engineer He, the foremost scientist in China—you invented a machine that could traverse ti and space…”
He Xiuyu’s deanor turned serious and his eyebrows furrowed slightly. “Brother Chen, don’t you think that’s an absurd dream?”
A machine that traveled through ti and space—if such a research project succeeded, it couldn’t possibly be common knowledge. Such research would definitely need to be carried out in secret. How could Chen Tianliang know about it if it were real?
Moreover, He Xiuyu wasn’t in doubt of his own capabilities, but he thought that researching ti and space travel was unnecessary at present.
His goals lay elsewhere, which ant he wasn’t likely to spend a lifeti on such a scientific endeavor.
To his knowledge, many were secretly conducting this kind of research. The purpose was rely to unlock the mysteries of the universe, ultimately aiming to make people’s lives more efficient and usher in the era of technology.
The ultimate purpose of technology should still be to serve humanity, not without conditions or limitations.
It can’t be said that everyone harbors the thought of returning to the past, but it can certainly be assud that more than 90% of people have harbored so form of regret over their past years.
If such a machine really were invented, the implications for the world would be unimaginable. The desires to nd, to save, to change—even the desire to beco overnight billionaires…
It wouldn’t be a beneficial scientific outco. Even if discovered, it certainly would not be made public.
That could lead to the collapse of social order, and with the collapse of social order, humanity might not be far from extinction.
Such a basic truth should be understood by anyone with a semblance of intelligence.
“I’ve always thought it was an absurd dream, yet occasionally I still dream of such episodes; they seem so real.” Chen Tianliang paused and then looked intently at He Xiuyu. “I don’t know whether you are conducting this research, but I can tell you this much: you will be much younger when you invent the machine that travels through ti and space, only about seven or eight years older than you are now, you…”
He Xiuyu interrupted Chen Tianliang, asking sternly, “Brother Chen, even if such research existed, in what capacity would you be privy to it?”
Chen Tianliang was montarily taken aback, his brow furrowed.
Indeed, how could he have known about it? Initially, he had so mory of it, but then it faded.
He was sure, however, that he indeed knew about it.
“I don’t know what I did in the world of my dream, of course it wouldn’t be my current job, but you know about my family connections, so if necessary, it’s still possible to find out…”
He Xiuyu softened his tone and spoke gently, “Brother Chen, whether it’s a dream or even if you foresaw the future, if it’s really researched then it needs to remain classified and not be known to outsiders. However, I can assure you, Brother Chen, that we are currently not conducting this kind of scientific research.”
There are simply too many things he wanted to do.
Now, the situation has just begun to improve, but we still have a long way to go to catch up with developed countries. Not to speak of leading or keeping pace, but just reducing the gap requires the dedication and hard work of countless people.
