Chapter 20: Logic's Wallfacer Team_1

After coordinating the specifics with the PDC, Logic and Lin Sen returned to Huaxia.

Most of the resources for Logic's Wallfacer role were provided by Huaxia, so the direct department for the Wallfacer was set up in Huaxia. At the same time, during this period, Huaxia also took on the most crucial part of the mainstream defense plan, the Space Force.

Establishing the Wallfacer's direct department wasn't an easy task. After much back-and-forth arranging equipment and dispatching various personnel and materials, it took half a month to set up.

Currently under Logic's name were the Nanotechnology Research Department, the Controlled Fusion Research Department, and the newly-established Brain-Computer Interface Research Department. The teams included Wang Miao leading the nanomaterials team, Ding Yi heading the high-energy particle team, and the top domestic and international talents in brain-computer interfaces.

The frameworks for these three departments were quickly established, and the Wallfacer's direct department directly utilized the former National Super Proton Collider Experimental Base of Huaxia. The current High-Energy Particle Collider, now worth hundreds of billions, was entirely turned over to Wallfacer Logic by Huaxia.

Subsequently, Logic and Lin Sen met with characters from the story, such as Ding Yi and Wang Miao, as well as Elvan Marcus, the American neuroscientist devoted to researching brain-computer interfaces.

Ding Yi was a person of great interest to Lin Sen, jokingly referred to by netizens as "Six-Points Yi."

Firstly, Ding Yi was a free-spirited genius with a complex and variable character, with extensive and profound research areas, rich in studies of philosophy and quantum physics, and was also the youngest academician in Huaxia.

Secondly, Ding Yi appeared in several of Liu Cixin's novels, so saying he is "Six-Points Yi" is quite fitting.

Thirdly, Ding Yi was also a "Six-Points Yi" in romance!

Ding Yi's fiancée was Yang Dong, the daughter of the former ETO commander Ye Wenjie, and also a theoretical physicist.

Because the Sophon blocked human theoretical physics, "Physics ceased to exist!" Yang Dong lost her life's pursuit. Furthermore, upon learning that her mother was the ETO commander, the double blow led her to choose suicide, thus ending their relationship without disease.

In "Ball Lightning," Ding Yi also had an unfulfilled romance with Lin Yun. The wandering Ding Yi always reserved a place in his heart for this stubborn woman.

Lin Yun, utilizing macro atomic fusion, turned herself into a quantum life form. The macro atomic fusion, culminating with her life, shocked the world, damaged a third of the electronic chips across the country, and also ended the war between the two mightiest nations.

In front of Yang Dong or Lin Yun, Ding Yi was a fool, but in his field of research, Ding Yi was a god in the eyes of others.

Lin Sen needed Ding Yi to join the Controlled Fusion Research Department but work with the High-Energy Particle Research Team. Lin Sen knew that in the original timeline, it was Ding Yi who discovered a new approach to controlled fusion, achieving a major breakthrough within crisis thirteen years.

This was what Lin Sen needed, and the Controlled Fusion Research Department was named in anticipation of the success Ding Yi was about to achieve.

In the original timeline, after the breakthrough in controlled fusion technology, Ding Yi turned to high-energy physics research, looking for ways to avoid Sophon interference in high-energy particle experiments, but he made no further achievements.

Lin Sen was accustomed to giving the Trisolarans some mental mazes, with the department named Controlled Fusion Research Department but the research staff focusing on high-energy particles.

While you ponder what plans were hidden behind high-energy particles, Ding Yi's achievements would be in controlled fusion, and he would apply to the PDC for the construction of controlled fusion devices.

One might think the department's sole purpose was controlled fusion research, but no one knew for sure if the high-energy particle team was another plan of Lin Sen, a bait that might also be a deeper scheme.

In this era, Ding Yi shifted to high-energy physics research. Despite knowing it wouldn't break through Sophon's blockade, was it truly useless?

Wang Miao was also an important character in the original work, a top nanomaterial expert. Through Wang Miao, humanity's government infiltrated the Frontiers of Science organization, exposing Ye Wenjie, Evans, and the origins of the Earth-Trisolaris movement, and revealing the truth behind the Trisolaran invasion.

In the Zither Operation, Wang Miao's team utilized nanoscale "Flying Blades" to slice Evans's Second Red Shore Base's Judgment Day ship into over forty pieces, and Evans himself into three sections, providing humanity with precious 28G Trisolaris information and materials.

Elvan Marcus, though not a character from the original book, had achievements that now matched those of Ding Yi. He was obsessed with brain-computer interfaces, dreaming since childhood of manipulating objects with his thoughts.

The brain-computer interfaces he currently developed could control complex machines through a combination of brain activity and hand gestures.

Logic greeted all the experts with a smile. A smile was the primitive man's facial expression to intimidate wild beasts; today, it still served to comfort one's comrades and potentially intimidate enemies, though Trisolarans might not feel fear.

Lin Sen was in charge of arranging housing and daily life for the experts and their families and introducing them to their future work environment.

The safety of everyone was guaranteed; both Huaxia and the PDC spared no effort in safeguarding the Wallfacers. Security at the base extended over a 20-kilometer radius, with military districts close by, making it virtually impossible for the ETO to exploit any opportunity.

The political vetting within the base was extremely strict, with the range of activities for each individual rigidly confined to ensure the utmost safety of the Wallfacers.

Lin Sen did not have much interaction with main characters from the original story like Ding Yi and Wang Miao, but with his guidance, it was believed they would achieve even greater accomplishments than in the original timeline.

Once all arrangements were in place, Logic notified everyone that a Wallfacer mobilization meeting would be held tomorrow.

The meeting attendees would not only include members from various departmental teams but also leading military figures from the Space Force such as Chang Weisi and his strategic research advisory group, the Huaxia National Policy Research Office Advisory Group, PDC representatives from the Asia Defense Center, and renowned individuals like Dr. Yun Fei, an authority on human sociology, ..., all of whom could potentially become part of Logic's Wallfacer project.

Lin Sen hadn't made prior arrangements for the specific personnel; many had been directed assigned by Huaxia. However, Lin Sen still recognized familiar names among the Space Force research advisory group: prominently listed were Zhang Beihai and Wu Yue.

In the original timeline, Zhang Beihai was second only to Logic among humanity's greatest figures. He was the one who truly continued Earth's civilization, dubbed by netizens as the fifth Wallfacer, and the truly successful one, the keeper of the ember of human civilization.

He wasn't a prophet, but from the start, he saw all the future clearly, held firm to his conviction, and alone persisted through two centuries until the right opportunity came.

Zhang Beihai was decisive in his actions, to facilitate the propulsion systems of interstellar voyaging ships to develop towards reactionless drives, he even went as far as to murder three old-school astronauts who opposed the idea.

He proposed a plan to reinforce the future, and woke up two centuries later. Unable to be mark with Thoughtcontrol and possessing an unyielding belief in victory, he was appointed the Executive Captain of the Asia Fleet's third detachment flagship, the Natural Selection.

The plan that lay dormant for two centuries finally metamorphosed and broke free. Zhang Beihai hijacked the Natural Selection for interstellar escape, and the command "Natural Selection, advance to four!" resounded with everyone.

The fate of the original interstellar fleet's 2,000 star-level warships was to be utterly destroyed by a Trisolaran Waterdrop.

The Natural Selection and the four warships that pursued it became the hope for the continuation of the ember of human civilization—taking on the responsibility of perpetuating the species.

Describing such a character as "great" hardly suffices.
