Chapter 235 Everyone Wins Together
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 seemed 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 something, but Qiao directly named the fundamental particles 'implicons.' Implicons include various particles, such as containment gravitons, containment charge particles, containment color particles, containment Higgs particles..."
"The machine translation got this wrong. What Qiao means is that in the Quantum Implicative Model, the containment Higgs particle is responsible for giving mass to other fundamental particles, but unlike the standard model, it's not an excited state. Instead, certain motion modes of other fundamental particles may react with containment 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 fundamental particles will react with the containment Higgs particles. Hence, some particles are massless, while others possess mass. The only exception is the containment graviton."
"A more detailed description is that some trajectories of the fundamental particles may lead to phase transitions in the containment Higgs field, and these phase transitions might cause mass to be granted. This results in the fundamental particles acquiring mass within the post-transition implicative force field"
"According to Qiao, the containment graviton is also a special kind of fundamental particle, and any motion mode of it can interact with the containment Higgs particle. That means the containment graviton is constantly triggering phase transitions in the containment 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. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire
But with enough patience, explaining those basic descriptive issues to the two professors was not a big problem.
The mechanism 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 mechanism 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 mechanism 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 excitement stemmed 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 time. 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 meaningful and too much to explain once back home.
But if he could establish good relations with the two physics professors residing at CERN and facilitate some unplanned cooperation, giving these study tour students some unique experiences, back home, he would be more valued by the school, which was in his best interest.
"Oh, of course. We might not have time to arrange it today. But tomorrow I can invite you and your students to visit our laboratory. We will also take some time to talk to the kids about some popular science content on the directions of development in modern physics. What do you think?"
"That would be wonderful!" Gu Yonglu immediately agreed.
"Then it's settled. Uh, this is my number. Tomorrow morning you can head out directly from Merlin. Once you arrive at the research base, just call me, and I will arrange for someone 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.
