"Boss, you don't need to worry. Although this sounds terrifying, this high-energy ray is thinner than a nanometer. By adjusting the instantaneous voltage, we can artificially control its thickness."
"We've tested it and found that if we stabilize the ultra-high voltage around 60,000 volts, the affected range of the high-energy ray can be as thin as a single cell."
"The lowest trigger state is 20,000 volts of ultra-high voltage, with the high-energy ray affecting a range of about 1 nanometer."
"At 60,000 volts, the high-energy ray can even pass through the gaps between molecules, and each time it's just a single ray, damaging only a single column of cell tissue. So, while it looks terrifying, these lost cells can be quickly replenished through cell division!"
"It's like when we get an X-ray. The essence of an X-ray is also a ray passing through cells, and during this process, it damages or affects some cells. With X-rays having insufficient energy, most cells are unable to be killed when passing through; they only lose some of their cellular components."
"If the damaged cellular structure is DNA, it will cause serious problems during DNA transcription, leading to severe genetic mutations and fatal damage."
"We've calculated that the damage caused by one X-ray is equivalent to the damage caused by 12 million high-energy rays."
"At the same time, because the high-energy ray directly ablates cells, killing all cells it passes through without fail, there's no possibility of causing DNA mutations, unlike other radioactive rays that can cause genetic mutations in the human body."
"This kind of damage can be directly repaired by the human body in the same amount of time, and because there's no concern about genetic mutations, it's actually very safe." Tong He earnestly explained to Boss Huang, telling him that this kind of damage was acceptable to the human body.
Radiation-induced high-energy rays don't directly kill cells but cripple them, turning them into disabled cells that can still divide.
The high-energy rays produced by Black Gold, however, are decisive, killing cells directly without leaving any cripples.
It's like a convicted murderer who has been apprehended by the police and is now on trial.
If the court executes the murderer directly, they are dead and gone, with no further impact on society.
But if the court believes the murderer has room for rehabilitation, only to sentence them to prison for over a decade before releasing them.
Of course, some convicted murderers might indeed reform and become new people after their time in prison. However, some might escalate their actions, retaliate against society with doubled ferocity, ultimately causing greater social chaos. This is the principle of cutting off one finger being better than injuring ten.
History provides an example to prove this point. In Russia, there was a scientist named Anatoli Bugorski who, while inspecting a high-energy particle collider, forgot to turn it off and stuck his head into the beam path.
As a result, a beam of high-energy particles entered through the back of his skull and exited through his cheek, equivalent to simultaneously enduring the radiation of six atomic bomb explosions.
He immediately lost consciousness, and his face began to rot. Eventually, his entire face turned into a disfigured visage.
Theoretically, this Bugorski should have died instantly. Yet, he is still alive today, still active and even healthier than many his age.
Many people are puzzled by this. However, after discussion and research, most people believe that Bugorski's survival was actually due to the particle ray being too energetic. The immense energy directly killed all the cells in its path, leaving them no chance to mutate due to radiation, and simply killing them outright.
Of course, because Bugorski lost a large number of facial cells, his facial muscle tissue and nerve tissue were almost completely destroyed. Although some recovery occurred naturally later, it was impossible to restore them to their original state, thus resulting in his disfigured face.
Let's shift our focus back to the high-energy rays produced by Black Gold.
Firstly, in terms of energy, the killing power of these high-energy rays is even stronger than the high-energy particle impact experienced by Bugorski, making it impossible to leave any living cells behind.
However, the affected range of the high-energy rays is far smaller than that of the high-energy particle impact, and the effect on body cells is minimal. Human recovery capabilities alone can self-repair, eliminating the possibility of becoming disfigured.
"Overall, after extensive theoretical argumentation and animal experiments, we believe that with proper control, the high-energy rays produced by Black Gold will cause almost no fatal damage to humans. This applies even if the rays penetrate the brain and heart."
"Furthermore, because the ray propagates in a straight line directly between the phone and the charger, if the user carefully adjusts the terminal's position while using it, so as not to be in the line of propagation, then there will be absolutely no harm to the user."
"However, if the affected range of the energy ray is controlled too low, it will significantly reduce charging efficiency. Currently, we have determined that the safe charging efficiency is equivalent to the charging power of a 0.6W wired charger. This is the technical hurdle we need to overcome." Tong He explained the wireless charging technology to Boss Huang in detail.
"I believe everything you're saying!" Boss Huang said after a long silence. "But if the principle of this technology gets out, it will likely be met with universal condemnation. We don't need to expose the terminal to such enormous social backlash for the sake of a wireless charging feature."
"Yes!" Tong He's tone carried a hint of disappointment, as this project originated from the special material Black Gold, and he was personally responsible for it.
He had been full of hope for the project, but with Boss Huang's statement, the project was effectively dead.
"However!" Well, Boss Huang began to pivot again. "Why do you insist on using this technology in terminals? Do you think this technology can be used in medicine?"
"Ah!" Tong He was momentarily stunned, and then Huang He continued, "I recall you saying that by controlling it, the affected range of the high-energy ray can be up to 1 nanometer, right? So, if we use a 1-nanometer high-energy ray for cutting, can it also cut out an entire object?"
"No problem, 1 nanometer is enough to break molecular bonds!" Tong He immediately replied.
"Exactly. I remember that the most precise cutting tools currently used in medicine are laser cutters. But laser cutting still produces a lot of burning effects, and its cleanliness in cutting should be far inferior to the cutting effect of high-energy rays, shouldn't it?" Huang He asked.
"Yes!" Tong He's expression became somewhat excited. He was already eager to start researching the medical advancements brought about by cutting with high-energy rays produced by Black Gold.
Furthermore, Tong He elaborated, "Boss, it's not just for medicine; it would be excellent for industrial applications. Because our high-energy rays can also cut metal, the precision in current mechanical processing fields is at most around 10 nanometers. But if we use Black Gold to manufacture high-energy particle cutters, it's not impossible to increase precision to the level of 1% nanometer!"
"Oh my god, this high-energy ray should actually be used in lithography machines! Wouldn't that allow us to break through the limitations of current immersion lithography machines and directly achieve 1% nanometer level progress! My goodness, how could I be so stupid, always thinking of using this ray for wireless charging!" Tong He hit his head, lamenting his foolishness for considering such a valuable thing for such a trivial purpose.
It's easy to imagine that with the widespread application of these high-energy rays, the value of Black Gold could be significantly increased.
Of course, these technologies are still in the realm of imagination. Turning them into usable finished products will require countless design iterations, experiments, and innovations.
It's also easy to imagine that in the future, Boss Huang will likely be pouring hundreds of billions of dollars into this project again.
However, Boss Huang was very satisfied with this outcome. He heavily patted Tong He's shoulder to calm him down and then continued to ask him to introduce new technologies.
"This is a somewhat humorous technology called differential temperature film coating. Simply put, it uses temperature differences to directly plate a transparent film onto the surface of an object. However, this special material is very sensitive to temperature; as long as the temperature drops below zero, it turns into a liquid and automatically levels out!"
"So, as long as we coat the terminal's screen surface with such a transparent film, if the screen gets scratched significantly, all we need to do is shut down the device and put the terminal in the freezer for about ten minutes. The film on the entire screen surface will then re-level, resulting in a perfectly flawless screen!"
"Alas, Boss, I know this technology is a bit funny. Please just take it as a amusement," Tong He said somewhat embarrassed, as this thing did not improve the terminal's performance at all.
"This is a divine skill, damn it!" Huang He's eyes were practically bulging out of his head. He could already envision countless ancestral screen protectors wanting to beat him to death!
