Chapter 15 The computing center is in place
Li Fulan lay on the bed, her body covered with a jumble of sensors.
A swimming cap-like contraption covered his head, densely packed with electrodes connected to colorful cables that formed a "noodle" leading to a refrigerator-sized device next to him. His chest, wrists, temples, back of his head... anywhere that could be covered was plastered with it.
He felt like a salted fish thrown into a laboratory.
"Don't move."
Lin An's voice came from the side. He was holding a tablet and staring at the constantly changing data curves on the screen.
"Keep your heart rate stable and your blood pressure down. What are you so nervous about? It's not like you're being tortured."
"How can I not be nervous with this kind of situation?" Li Fulan rolled her eyes. "You guys are making me feel like I'm about to be sent into space."
"Pretty much." Lin An said expressionlessly. "What you're about to do might be even more significant than landing on the moon."
He pressed the communication button.
"Command center, we are ready. The subject's physiological indicators are normal; we can begin."
Professor Yuan's familiar, always energetic voice came through the headphones.
[Received! The national cloud computing collaborative network is being connected!]
[BJ Supercomputing Center - Now Connected!]
[Shanghai Zhangjiang Quantum Computing Center – Already Connected!]
[Shenzhen Pengcheng Laboratory - Now Connected!]
[Chengdu Tianfu Supercomputing Center - Now Connected!]
[Xi'an National Defense Science and Technology Industry Center - Now Connected!]
One confirmation call after another echoed in the channel, like a roll call or a declaration.
As Li Fulan heard those place names pop up one by one, she felt a strange chill run down her spine.
This is quite a big operation...
[Wuxi Shenwei TaihuLight Supercomputer - Now Connected!]
[Changsha Tianhe-3 prototype satellite – now connected!]
[Hefei Quantum Information Center - Already Connected!]
Professor Yuan's voice grew increasingly excited.
All 17 major supercomputing centers in China are online! Total computing power has exceeded 100 quadrillion calculations per second!
[Furthermore, with special approval from higher authorities, three classified military computing units have also been integrated into the collaborative network!]
This is the largest computing power allocation in our country's history!
Lin An glanced down at the tablet, and his lips twitched slightly.
"Did you hear that? For this meditation method, most of China's supercomputers are working for you."
"Don't put pressure on me." Li Fulan took a deep breath. "I'm just lying here."
"Just lie down." Lin An patted his shoulder. "Now start doing the first chapter of that meditation method. We'll monitor and record your breathing rate and the direction of your thoughts throughout."
"Every neural signal, every brainwave fluctuation, and every change in bioelectricity is uploaded to the cloud in real time for analysis."
"Do you understand?"
Li Fulan nodded and closed her eyes.
"Sink your Qi to your Dantian, and focus your mind on your spiritual platform..."
Following the instructions in the booklet, he began to adjust his breathing, each breath long and deep.
at the same time.
In more than a dozen supercomputing centers across the country, countless servers began to operate at full speed.
The fan roared, the indicator light flashed wildly, and the temperature soared.
The real-time data collected from Li Fulan was cut into countless fragments and distributed to different computing nodes for parallel processing.
BJ. A research institute under the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
"His brainwaves have entered the alpha wave range! This matches the 'quiet state' described in meditation!"
"Record this! Mark this frequency range!"
A laboratory in Zhangjiang.
"His heart rate variability is showing regular fluctuations! His autonomic nervous system is being actively regulated!"
"This is impossible... How could a human possibly control the autonomic nervous system with their thoughts?"
"Don't say it's impossible! The data is right in front of you! Analyze the triggering conditions for this waveform!"
Pengcheng Cloud Brain Center.
"Based on the direction of his nerve signals, we have initially modeled a route for the flow of 'qi'—starting from the dantian, ascending along the spine, passing through the heart and throat, and finally converging at the center of the forehead..."
"Isn't this exactly what Traditional Chinese Medicine calls the Ren and Du meridians?!"
"Who cares what it's called! Let's draw the path first! See if there's room for optimization!"
Across the country, tens of thousands of scientists, engineers, and medical experts who were temporarily reassigned are engaging in unprecedented cross-disciplinary collaboration through encrypted video conferencing systems.
Neuroscientists stare at electroencephalograms (EEGs), trying to figure out what those abnormal waveforms represent.
An elderly expert from the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine flipped through ancient books, muttering to himself as he compared the data on the screen.
Quantum physicists are frantically calculating, trying to explain the possible forms of "soul power" at the microscopic level.
Bioengineers are modeling, transforming those abstract "meridian" concepts into three-dimensional structures that can be understood by computers.
[Report! Preliminary verification of the feasibility of the "Ren Meridian" route! Under the guidance of the subject's intention, the bioelectrical signal intensity in this area increased by 17%!]
[Three suspected blockages have been found in the "Du Meridian"! We are currently analyzing whether adjusting breathing frequency can clear these blockages!]
[We suggest optimizing the "Circulation of Qi" route in Chapter 3! The original version is clockwise, but according to our simulations, counter-clockwise may be more efficient!]
[Against this! Counter-clockwise rotation may cause the flow of qi and blood to reverse! This is clearly recorded in traditional Chinese medicine texts!]
[Classical texts are classical texts, and data is data! Why not let the subjects try it out and see?]
Arguments, discussions, and the clatter of keyboards echoed simultaneously in countless meeting rooms.
Professor Yuan's voice drowned out everyone else's.
[Calm down, all of you! Follow the procedure! First, verify the feasibility of each meridian, then discuss optimization plans!]
[Li Fulan! How are you feeling over there? Is anything unusual?]
Li Fulan's voice came through the earphones, sounding a little dazed.
"I feel... a warm sensation in my lower abdomen. It's like I've drunk a bowl of hot soup."
[Holy crap! "Heat in the lower abdomen"! This is the first sign of a beginner!]
[Record! Save all data at this point in time!]
He's really mastered it! This meditation method is genuinely effective!
Professor Yuan's voice was trembling.
[Continue! Let him continue! Do the remaining steps as well! We need complete data!]
[Attention everyone! This is a historic moment!]
For the first time in thousands of years, humanity has used scientific methods to analyze cultivation!
Regardless of whether or not soul power can ultimately be recreated on Earth, these data alone today are enough to rewrite humanity's understanding of its own potential!
Cheer up!
