Chapter 5292 Great Value for Money

Gordon Moore is going crazy. He didn't expect that Lam Feng actually bought it directly, spending 5 billion US dollars to buy it directly. That liar, that damn liar, how could he deceive Lin Feng? He thought that Lin Feng would see through this scam and teach the liar a lesson. Who would have expected that Lin Feng would be deceived instead.

"Lin, this guy is like Shockley. Shockley had no heirs in his life. He believed that human beings should exterminate those descendants with insufficient intelligence, so he didn't have any heirs. Later, I don't know where he saw this Meric. It was pleasing to the eye, and he adopted the street boy Muric from outside. Later, he raised him from his adopted son, to his assistant, and finally to his final relative. But this Muric was a liar, and he kept using Shockley's name. Shockley was deceived and deceived outside. In his later years, Shockley was very poor. All his previous wealth was spent on the impossible project of superconductors, which made Merich from rich to poor. Therefore, he always used his identity as Shockley's adopted son to defraud him. Kidnapping." Gordon Moore looked weird.

He really didn't expect Lin Feng to be deceived.

“Boss, let’s catch him!” Melissa said bitterly, “Let’s call the police!”

Lin Feng also felt a little dumbfounded at this moment. He had actually been deceived, but looking at the way Meric was gnashing his teeth just now, so heartbroken, and so desperate to fight him, it really didn't look like a liar.

"Well, let's not talk about that first. Let's see what this note says first!" Lin Feng handed the note left by William Shockley to Gordon Moore.

If this notebook is also fake, then Lin Feng will be really angry.

Gordon Moore took it and read it carefully, with a look of emotion on his face.

"It's true. Mr. Shockley really has knowledge and research on superconductors that transcends this era. He is really a genius! Of course. He is also a bastard!" Gordon Moore mentioned Shockley for the first time. He used the honorific title of sir, but then there was a burst of curses.

Lin Feng took the notebook and looked at it, shaking his head helplessly. It turns out that this diary, in addition to some progress and data records about his daily experiments, is a curse on Gordon Moore and others, denounced throughout it as traitors and liars. It's a villain!

It seems that the defection of Gordon Moore and others was the biggest shame, biggest failure and biggest setback in life for William Shockley.

"How is this diary?" Lin Feng asked.

"Priceless!" Gordon Moore held the diary tightly in his arms, "I think anyone who studies superconductors will regard this diary as a treasure as long as they see it.

I think, those people before. I am afraid that I was deceived by the name of Merich, a liar, so I don’t trust this notebook very much. In fact, I didn’t really believe it before, so I just wanted to give it a try. I never thought it was actually Kui Bao! "

Lin Feng curled his lips. This guy really uses himself as a gunman!

"As long as it's useful. Then let's see what's left of this company!" Lin Feng took Melissa and Gordon Moore to inspect the Shockley Semiconductor Company he just bought.

To be honest, this company is really shabby. Everywhere reveals the same word - the word "po", the word "po" means bankruptcy. Of course, in reality, Shockley Semiconductor Company did go bankrupt, but nothing was left afterwards except this building that was more than 40 years ago. As for the property rights of this building, it was also rented. Yes, it's rented. Because when Shockley was impoverished because of his research and development of superconductors, he sold the company building and rented it back. As a result, superconductors were never developed and the company eventually went bankrupt. After bankruptcy, everything is liquidated and nothing is left.

As for why Murrich is still here, it's very simple. After Shockley Semiconductor Company went bankrupt, people rented this building one after another, but for some unknown reason, all the companies that rented this building later went bankrupt. In the end, it became an ominous place, and no one came to rent it anymore, so it became empty. Later, Meric started cheating here. At first, the owner of the building even tried to evict him, but this guy was a scumbag. Later, the owner of the building didn't bother to take care of him, and signed a long-term lease agreement with him, but... The previous tenants are all owed, and no rent will be paid, which will be paid by the subsequent tenants together. Maybe, one day, I might actually meet someone who has been taken advantage of!

Today, I actually met Lin Feng!

After Gordon Moore carefully looked at the relevant documents left by Muric, he explained with a wry smile. This Merich is indeed a master of deception and solved everything. Now Lin Feng has become the owner of William Shockley Company. Of course, he is also the tenant of this building. Well, there are nearly 8 Years of renting the building. Although the money is not much, Gordon Moore always feels that this is a trap!

But thinking about what was recorded in the notebook in his hand, he felt that it was worth the money. No matter how much money Lin Feng has been defrauded now, at least in this notebook, Merich did not lie, it is the original work of William Shockley, so it is worth it!

"By the way, Lin, this note also mentions a semi-superconducting material, which is Shockley's final crystallization. It is said that through some processing, graphite particles can be made diamagnetic at room temperature (diamagnetism is a characteristic of superconductors) One) also discovered a new material, lithium iron hydroxide iron selenium compound, which can become a superconductor at minus 231 degrees." Gordon Moore's eyes lit up.

All along, the necessary condition for superconductors is ‘absolute zero’, and the temperature of ‘absolute zero’ is minus 273.15 degrees. William Shockley has raised it to minus 231 degrees, which is already a big improvement. He wants to see this material now, wondering if it is still there.

Not long after, the three found the safe and opened it with the key left by Murrich. There are really some materials inside. Of course, Lin Feng didn’t understand these materials, but seeing Gordon Moore’s happy look, Lin Feng naturally guessed that these were the materials.

“Hey, boss, look!” At this time, Melissa took out an envelope from inside. After opening it, there was a very old page of paper inside. Lin Feng’s heart jumped, and this paper was recognized by Lin Feng at a glance-a page in Tesla’s notes.

Lin Feng took it and looked at the lower right corner, page 28, superconductor. Lin Feng exclaimed in his heart. Could it be that William Shockley started studying superconductors because he got this page of ‘Tesla’s notes’?

Indeed, Lin Feng was not wrong. When William Shockley invented the transistor, he was always very proud of himself. He didn't care even if Gordon Moore and others left the company. Because he already had the transistor and became a scientific giant in the world, but then Robert Noyce invented the integrated circuit block, making the transistor a cornerstone and no longer the key, and Robert Noyce had the possibility of surpassing him in terms of reputation, which made William Shockley very uncomfortable. Later, Gordon Moore created the microprocessor and created a new market, which made William Shockley even more miserable.

So, William Shockley decided to research something better to surpass Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore, and in William Shockley's cognition, superconductors were the most shocking invention in the world. So, he invested all the money he earned into the research and development of superconductors. But in fact, superconductors have always been accidental products in human extreme scientific laboratories. How can it be possible to make them have superconducting properties at room temperature?

So, millions of dollars went in, and there was nothing. Tens of millions of dollars went in, but there was no bubble. Until William Shockley was penniless, his research on superconductors could be said to have no effect. It was not until he closed the company sadly and went to Stanford University as a professor that he accidentally discovered this page of Tesla's notes, which made him regain his confidence. But at this time, he was penniless and had nothing. And he was unwilling to share it with others. In fact, although William Shockley was a genius, he was also a stingy genius and was never willing to share his achievements with others.

Otherwise, to be honest, William Shockley's name would definitely be on the credit list of integrated circuits and microprocessors. Unfortunately, he was never willing to share. So he covered this page of Tesla's notes alone and used the research room of Stanford University to study silently. The result was naturally not much progress. But he was a genius after all, and he still made some progress before his death.

Of course, now these progress are naturally cheap for Lin Feng and Gordon Moore.

"Boss, how can this guy be so stingy and not know how to share with others? Otherwise, I think he would be more successful and more famous than he is now!" Melissa said with emotion.

"Haha, not everyone in this world can see through this. Don't forget that human nature is greedy. Selfishness is human nature. Especially in such a great event that will be passed down through the ages, most people will be like William Shockley." Lin Feng said with a smile, "Including Edison, who has always been respected. He has invented more than a thousand inventions in his life, haha, how many of them are his own inventions? He is just the most successful businessman!"

Lin Feng's words were full of contempt. Originally, Lin Feng respected and admired Edison very much, as he had known him in the textbooks since childhood. But since he knew Tesla, Lin Feng changed his mind. Tesla is the real selfless scientific giant. Just because he gave the copyright of alternating current to the world for free, he deserves everyone's respect. Otherwise, until now, all human beings have to pay him copyright fees for every kilowatt-hour of electricity used!

Edison, what is he? Just a mercenary businessman! (To be continued...)
