Chapter 42 (Chapter 42 (60,000 Nutrient Solution Plus...)
Children just need to be happy, and adults will naturally handle other things.
Song Yao heard that these people came to give him commendation and bonuses, and thought they would leave after giving them out.
As a result, Uncle Liu gave the commendation certificate and bonus to grandma (the commendation meeting will be held in the county tomorrow), and he actually followed them to their house and talked to grandpa and grandma non-stop.
At first, he found that Director Liu was praising himself, and he was very interested in listening.
Then he found that the other party was praising him with the same few sentences, and he lost interest instantly.
"This child is so amazing at such a young age, he will definitely become a pillar of the country in the future."
"A small life-saving necklace has saved countless people."
"With it, I don't know how many people can survive in the future flood control."
The above are all the key points in Director Liu's words, but he insisted on talking for two hours without stopping.
Compared with Song Yao, who lost interest after listening for ten minutes, Grandpa Song and Grandma Song were still very happy to listen.
Although they themselves usually praise their grandson, but can the praise of people sent by the country be the same as their own praise?
Even if Director Liu talked for three days and three nights, they could still listen with great interest, of course, without affecting their eating and sleeping.
The two were very interested and agreed from time to time:
"Yes, yes, our youngest has always loved to study, and he is always the first in the school."
In fact, there is only one class in the school, and it doesn't matter whether he is the first in the class or the first in the school.
But doesn't "the whole school" sound more impressive?
To the villagers, they have to be humble and say "Oh, no, your child is also very promising", but they don't need to say it to this state cadre who is not a local.
Grandpa Song and Grandma Song were all smiles when they were praised by Director Liu.
Director Liu wiped the sweat from his head and quietly went to see Mr. Wu in the yard.
He felt that he had said all the words to praise people in his life, why is this person not in a hurry to leave.
If it drags on, he really has nothing to say.
Mr. Wu was really not in a hurry at all. He strolled around the Song family yard, looking at Song Yao's small tool knife, looking at Song Yao's "work corner" (the wood in the work corner would not be used for burning), and observing the row of wooden toys that Song Yao placed on the ground.
He also asked Song Yao politely: "Can I pick it up and have a look?"
The child nodded generously: "Look, but be careful, some are not finished yet, don't break them for me."
With permission, Mr. Wu picked it up and looked at it carefully for a while.
"It's really well done, but this position needs a traction setting, otherwise it won't run far even if it's wound up."
He pointed at the top of a wooden toy's leg: "Or it can be done at this position."
Song Yao hurried over to see it, rehearsed it in his mind, and looked at Mr. Wu with a strange look:
"Grandpa Wu, you really know a lot, you can know it with just one look, where did you learn it from?"
Mr. Wu smiled: "As long as you study hard, you can be like this in the future."
Because Song Yao may not understand everything now, he picked and chose the relevant knowledge that the child could barely understand.
This is actually beyond the scope for Song Yao, because of the ladder limitation of the learning system, he cannot open the next ladder to learn those knowledge before he has laid a solid foundation for the previous ladder.
So his beyond-the-scope knowledge is all from "interest and hobby grouping".
But "interest and hobby grouping" is not like ladder learning with detailed explanations. If you want to understand it, you have to ask Teacher He.
Some of them were answered by Teacher He, and some of them she could only answer after asking everyone and reading books.
This was the first time Song Yao met someone like Wu, who seemed to know the answer to any question at a glance.
He envied him very much, but the child firmly believed that he would be able to achieve this one day, especially after Wu said so.
The child nodded seriously: "I will study hard, Grandpa Wu, can you help me look at my new toy again?"
After Wu smiled and agreed, he looked back furtively and found that Zhao Xiaodong was talking to two police uncles, then he ran into the house with confidence, and then rushed back quickly.
He took another look at Zhao Xiaodong and made sure that the other party didn't notice this side, then he secretly took something out of his pocket to show it to Wu.
"Grandpa Wu, I want it to be like a real hand, and it moves like this, that is, it can crawl on the ground after it is made."
Song Yao stretched out his little fleshy hand and made a gesture of crawling fingers.
He said with some distress: "I showed it to the teacher, and the teacher said that he wanted to make a fixed rod like that..."
When Song Yao mentioned this topic, his eyebrows immediately danced with joy, and he blurted out some of the things that Teacher He taught him, and added some of his own ideas.
The expression on Mr. Wu's face gradually became cautious as he spoke.
He looked carefully at the "human hand" in front of him, which was not good-looking and even looked a bit like a large chicken claw. After a long time, he said:
"This is machine automation technology. We don't have such technology in Zhongzhou at present. At present, some factories in China have installed similar machines, but they are all imported from abroad."
Song Yao didn't understand: "Why import it from abroad? Can't we do it ourselves?"
"Because there is no such technology in Central Continent now."
Mr. Wu didn't think it was difficult to say this. If it doesn't exist, it means it doesn't exist. Zhongzhou's technology has been lagging behind for more than a day or two.
He was mainly surprised that an eight-year-old child could actually come up with the idea of making a robot hand and even put it into action.
Moreover, the young teacher He actually taught some knowledge about Song Medicine seriously.
You know, starting a business is always the hardest.
Because this means that the other party has to construct a brand new thing out of thin air.
Even though the concept of robotic hands already exists abroad, Song Yao doesn't know about it.
Moreover, the flexibility and application of the robot he wants are more demanding than those abroad.
Regardless of whether he can achieve it or not, the fact that young Song Yao has such "ambition" is enough to despise 99% of people.
Song Yao didn't feel as emotional as Mr. Wu.
He replied confidently: "It doesn't matter! If we all work together, Zhongzhou will definitely become very strong in the future!"
Song Yao's thoughts were always the same.
Even though he now knows that it is the 40th anniversary of the founding of Zhongzhou and everything is still developing, he has never felt inferior because his country's technology is backward and its national strength is not as good as others.
After all, he has received a year of education on "We are the strongest country in Central Continent and we are the most powerful country in the galaxy".
Even though he now knows that Zhongzhou is not the most powerful country, Song Yao is still very confident and proud in his heart, because Zhongzhou only lags behind for a few decades, but its glory has been maintained for thousands of years!
Thousands of years! !
Nowadays, children who are already good at math think that Zhongzhou is awesome when they think about this number.
He dropped the topic and continued to explain his thoughts to Mr. Wu with great interest:
"I think even though it is made of wood, if we add some devices, maybe it can be moved like a human hand, like this."
Song Yao squatted down, with his back facing Zhao Xiaodong. He spread the five fingers of his right hand and used his index and middle fingers to make a walking posture on the wood.
The child's eyes were bright and he looked up at Mr. Wu:
"If what we thought about before cannot be achieved for the time being, it is okay to achieve this kind of flexibility at present. Logically speaking, it should be no problem.
Just make a special mechanism on these two fingers, just like this. I have calculated that in this case, it can move around for a short time..."
Song Yao took out the small device he made from his pocket and handed it to Mr. Wu:
"Look, I've drawn the design many times. It should be possible to drive it. I don't know why, but it didn't work after trying it several times."
If he was just asked to move his fingers and move his entire palm, Mr. Wu would still be able to do it.
He patiently and carefully explained it to Song Yao.
The child listened carefully, his eyes sparkling with desire for knowledge.
Mr. Wu couldn't help but explain it a little more deeply.
Song Yao listened and suddenly asked him to wait. He rushed into the room and took out a pen and paper. He continued to look at Mr. Wu with bright eyes and an expectant face:
"I don't understand anymore. I'll write it down in my notebook and ask the teacher to explain it to me slowly in the future!"
Mr. Wu thought about it and thought it would be okay. He was really not very good at explaining this kind of thing in detail. Although he had not spoken to Teacher He very much, he could tell from some of the things she taught Song Yao. It can be seen that her foundation is very solid.
So he spoke a little slower: "Then let's start from here..."
Song Yao happily took notes. Although he couldn't understand it at all, he was so happy when he thought that he could use this knowledge to complete his robotic hand.
Teacher He will definitely be very happy to see so much new knowledge.
Teacher He, who was being pulled by Grandma Zhao to talk, looked up and saw Song Yao raising his head and smiling at him, and had some bad premonitions for no reason.
But taking a closer look, Song Yao was just memorizing some things. Mr. Wu seemed to be very educated, and he should be teaching the children.
It is a great thing that such a powerful person can teach Song Yao.
Teacher He was relieved, maybe she was overthinking.
Mr. Wu only taught for an hour. When Director Liu really couldn't find the words to praise, he stopped reluctantly.
"That's pretty much it. No matter how in-depth you learn, it will disrupt your thinking."
It's a pity that he often has to participate in confidential projects, which can be as short as a few months or as long as half a year, without contact with the outside world. Otherwise, he really wants to mentor this child often in the future.
At a young age, I could think of the idea of a robot hand.
No matter how talented you are.
Mr. Wu looked at Song Yao with kind eyes, and he asked warmly:
"Even if I teach you this, if you want to complete it, you will still encounter countless mistakes and difficulties. You may have worked hard and spent a lot of time, but in the end you still fell short. You have to think about it, can you persist?"
"I can!!"
Song Yao puffed up his chest: "No matter what kind of difficulties I encounter!! I will definitely work hard!! Make it happen!!"
Mr. Wu asked again: "Even if it takes you a long time? Can you persist in half a year, a year, or two years?"
"I can!"
Song Yao said resolutely: "I can definitely do it! I'm young, only eight years old. Even if it takes ten years to make it, I'm still only eighteen years old. I can afford to wait!"
"good!"
Mr. Wu looked at Song Yao with unabashed appreciation.
It is really amazing that such a young child can have such persistence and ideas.
He even admired the other party a little.
Old Wu sighed: "How did you come up with the idea of making a robotic arm?"
Song Yao is only an eight-year-old child, this is too genius.
Song Yao, who is considered a genius, said:
"It's all Zhao Xiaodong!"
Old Wu: "?"
Song Yao said it with an indignant look on his face: "He actually secretly made a toy snake to scare me!"
Old Wu didn't quite understand, what is the connection between this and making a robotic arm: "So?"
Song Yao felt that the two were very related.
Although the snake was made very crudely, the child who was afraid of snakes still felt very embarrassed.
He said confidently: "So I have to scare him too!"
"The story about Zhao Xiaodong being afraid of the hand grandmother is the story that if a child plays with fire, the hand grandmother will hide under the child's bed and pull him down."
Old Wu: "..."
He had a premonition of what Song Yao was going to say next.
Sure enough, the child swore seriously:
"No matter how big or how many difficulties there are, I will overcome them. Even if it takes one year! Five years! Ten years! I must make a robot hand!"
When the child thought of what he could do next, his face was full of anticipation:
"Then put it under Zhao Xiaodong's bed!! Let the hand be in front of him!"
"Climb! Out! Come out!"
