This sign of success undoubtedly gave everyone in the laboratory a tremendous morale boost.
For a time, almost everyone believed in the Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube with a tensile strength of 1,500 GPa that Lü Yongchang had described!
Over the next few days, one piece of good news after another came from the laboratory.
"Professor Lü, we changed the arrangement, and the tensile strength reached 260 GPa!"
"290 GPa!"
"350 GPa!"
"..."
As the days passed, the maximum tensile strength of the Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube continued to rise.
Just as everyone was brimming with confidence, reality delivered a resounding slap to their faces.
The readings began to fall.
After the maximum tensile strength reached 500 GPa, not a single subsequent sample surpassed that record.
Lü Yongchang frowned at the data on his computer.
After a moment of thought, he slowly shook his head.
"No, this isn't right."
"Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes with this number of layers definitely aren't what we need."
Then Lü Yongchang said gravely, "Zero, have we accumulated enough data?"
Zero's voice soon rang out. "Professor, we have currently accumulated data from 5,670 samples. Would you like me to analyze it?"
A conflicted look appeared in Lü Yongchang's eyes.
Data from 5,670 samples might seem like a lot, but for a material with such enormous variability, it was clearly insufficient.
Yet nearly a month had passed since the experiments began.
If they continued with blind trial and error, the time it would cost them would be impossible to estimate!
"Zero, give it a try."
"If possible, try to work out a general direction for us."
As Lü Yongchang finished speaking, the hum of the cooling system suddenly rose inside the distant Quantum Supercomputing Center.
Capital City.
Inside the First Ring Road.
"Qiming, I have an idea. Hear me out
