When the two professors from Europe brought out the original photos of Qiao Ze's article and asked for his help with translation, Gu Yonglu finally understood why he had suddenly gained the attention of the CERN professor.
Although with his relatively sparse knowledge of physics, it was not easy for him to understand the mathematical explanations given by Qiao Ze, translating those descriptions of the process seed not too difficult.
At least it wouldn't be worse than a machine translation.
So he readily agreed to help them out.
"... Here you need to understand in context, it's not that the particles contain sothing, but Qiao directly nad the fundantal particles 'implicons.' Implicons include various particles, such as containnt gravitons, containnt charge particles, containnt color particles, containnt Higgs particles..."
"The machine translation got this wrong. What Qiao ans is that in the Quantum Implicative Model, the containnt Higgs particle is responsible for giving mass to other fundantal particles, but unlike the standard model, it's not an excited state. Instead, certain motion modes of other fundantal particles may react with containnt Higgs particles and thus be granted mass."
"Yes, yes, yes, but the interaction is more complex in its causes. It's not that every motion of other fundantal particles will react with the containnt Higgs particles. Hence, so particles are massless, while others possess mass. The only exception is the containnt graviton."
"A more detailed description is that so trajectories of the fundantal particles may lead to phase transitions in the containnt Higgs field, and these phase transitions might cause mass to be granted. This results in the fundantal particles acquiring mass within the post-transition implicative force field"
"According to Qiao, the containnt graviton is also a special kind of fundantal particle, and any motion mode of it can interact with the containnt Higgs particle. That ans the containnt graviton is constantly triggering phase transitions in the containnt Higgs field."
...
There's no denying Flano Shawl's proposal was quite effective.
Although Gu Yonglu could say he didn't understand at all the content of Qiao Ze's discussions, especially the parts explaining the mathematical structure.
But with enough patience, explaining those basic descriptive issues to the two professors was not a big problem.
The chanism of particle interactions under the Quantum Implicative Model and the similarities and differences with the standard model, carefully explained by Gu Yonglu, finally allowed the two professors to form a theoretical outline of Qiao Ze's theory in their minds.
They also understood more about how Qiao Ze cleverly integrated gravity into the basic model and the academic thought of unifying the micro and macro worlds.
Just like that, after two hours of explanation from Gu Yonglu, the twelve images Qiao Ze had posted on Weibo were covered.
He felt his mouth dry and tongue parched.
"By the way, this last passage, I found it very interesting. In the context of the Chinese language, Qiao seems to be implying that he believes the current mainstream understanding of the origin of the universe, the Big Bang theory, might be incorrect."
Yes, the concluding words of Qiao Ze's original text were, "The mass granting chanism of the implicative force field involves complex mathematical structures. But from my current understanding of this mathematical structure, in the end, it cannot be directly mapped to a single point. This seems to imply that the chanism of our universe's formation is far more complex than all our current guesses."
"Oh, that's not surprising. Actually, I have never believed that the origin of the universe started from an infinitesimal point," said an excited Flano Shawl, who had finally managed to more or less understand the article by Qiao Ze in the photos.
His excitent stemd from the potential of a new branch of physics.
The academic thoughts that had been enshrouded in fog due to language barriers were finally unveiling their mysterious veil before him.
It must be said that Qiao Ze's capriciousness had caused him significant trouble.
Fortunately, he was smart enough to know how to find resources.
"Thank you very much, Teacher Gu, for taking so much of your ti. If you need compensation..."
"Compensation is not necessary, our study tour team is leaving the day after tomorrow. The students are all very curious about CERN. As you may know, conventional tours don't fully satisfy the children's curiosity. If possible, could you find a classroom at CERN to give a lecture to the kids, focusing on the wonderful world of physics?"
Gu Yonglu refused Professor Lyle's proposal.
For a teacher like him, accepting monetary rewards from these Western professors while abroad was senseless—not enough to be aningful and too much to explain once back ho.
But if he could establish good relations with the two physics professors residing at CERN and facilitate so unplanned cooperation, giving these study tour students so unique experiences, back ho, he would be more valued by the school, which was in his best interest.
"Oh, of course. We might not have ti to arrange it today. But tomorrow I can invite you and your students to visit our laboratory. We will also take so ti to talk to the kids about so popular science content on the directions of developnt in modern physics. What do you think?"
"That would be wonderful!" Gu Yonglu imdiately agreed.
"Then it's settled. Uh, this is my number. Tomorrow morning you can head out directly from rlin. Once you arrive at the research base, just call , and I will arrange for soone to pick you up."
"Alright, thank you very much."
...
Without a doubt, whether it was Gu Yonglu, Flano Shawl and Lyle, or Edward Whitten and Yang Xuanqing, everyone was fortunate.
