Super Island Tycoon-Chapter 655 - 654 Risk

Hopefully, this time we can smoothly carry out the experimental validation to thoroughly prove the correctness of our theory.

"So which theoretical model are you planning to start with? I feel like all seven of your models make sense and seem capable of explaining all the current phenomena."

Once Yang Jiqian recovered, she started focusing on the research issues again.

Her theory still needs modification; she can't proceed before perfecting all the issues.

This very powerful reason naturally resolved the debate between the two of them, thanks to Gu Li.

Since her theory can't be further researched, she can only start with Jiang Cheng's theory.

But now they have another problem: which theoretical model to study first?

Jiang Cheng proposed seven theoretical models at once, and they need to consider which one to research first.

The usual approach is to study the theory that seems most correct first, and if proven wrong, then to study others.

But the problem now is that all of Jiang Cheng's theories seem so correct, they don't even know which one to research first.

It seems being too correct is a problem too, making it impossible for them to choose.

From this point alone, you can see that Jiang Cheng's ability to propose theoretical conjectures is really frightening.

Not only did he propose seven brand new dark matter models in one go, but they all seem so reliable, to the point where it's hard to choose.

Faced with Yang Jiqian's question, Jiang Cheng started to think.

He really needs to think carefully about this issue, hoping that the first theory to study is the correct one, to save himself as much time as possible.

Jiang Zai fell into a state of dilemma, and he himself doesn't actually know which theory is better.

After a while, Jiang Cheng's expression finally brightened a bit, as if he made a big decision in his heart, he spoke with a tinge of resoluteness.

"Let's start with the last theoretical model, the dark matter model I thought of last; let's start from it, and consider other models if it doesn't work."

Jiang Cheng picked up the paper from the bottom of the pile of drafts and handed it to Yang Jiqian in front of him.

Then he continued explaining his reasoning to Yang Jiqian: I feel this model is the essence of dark matter's existence; it can explain all of our questions about dark matter, so I chose it as the main direction for the upcoming research."

After looking at the contents of the draft paper, Yang Jiqian asked with a hint of confusion, "Did you make this choice just based on intuition? But this theory is the most revolutionary among them all.

Choosing this revolutionary theory entails great risks; isn't it a bit rash to choose just based on intuition?" Holding the draft paper, Yang Jiqian expressed her concerns.

This theoretical model on the draft paper is extremely revolutionary.

This theoretical model is in great conflict with many existing theories, so Yang Jiqian said it's a very risky choice.

If this theoretical model is proven correct, many physical theories would be rewritten, which would be an earthquake in the physics world. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

But all these are things to think about only after the theory is proven; right now, discussing these things doesn't make sense.

Although this theoretical model appears very impressive, and if proven would be very valuable.

It could solve issues surrounding dark matter theories, as well as revise many physical theories, having great significance for the physics world as a whole.

But before experimental proof, this revolutionary theory is just Jiang Cheng's speculation.

A conjecture is merely a hypothesis before being proven; it cannot be treated as fact.

So the value behind this theory has no meaning; only after it's proven can its associated significance be realized.

Even though the potential of this theory is high and it seems valuable, the higher the value, the higher the risk.

This type of revolutionary theory is not something unprecedented.

But most of the revolutionary theories were ultimately proven to be wrong assumptions.

The development of physics has already become very mature, so if an assumption greatly contradicts earlier ones, its chance of being wrong is very high.

Only very few revolutionary theories, after verification, are deemed correct, eventually overturning previous old theories.

You could say that Jiang Cheng's choice of this theoretical model is the one with the lowest success rate here, and it's the least likely to be proven correct.

So Jiang Cheng's choice indeed carries great risk, it can be said to be a very courageous choice.

Yang Jiqian worries about this issue; she's afraid that ultimately this theory will be proven wrong, meaning all their invested effort would be wasted.

Her worry is not unfounded; being wise, one would not challenge the entire old physics theories like Jiang Cheng.

To challenge the existing order of theories is a very bold action.

Jiang Cheng isn't without other choices right now; he can completely research theories that are more likely to succeed first.

There clearly are many paths for Jiang Cheng to choose, but he chose a thorny path.

Perhaps only someone like Jiang Cheng would make such a choice.

Jiang Cheng was never someone who follows rules; he always liked to challenge the old and eventually find his own way after going through hardships.

In the face of Yang Jiqian's persuasion, Jiang Cheng resolutely made his final decision.

Jiang Cheng, in a tone of reminiscence, said, "Let's still choose that revolutionary theory this time. I've decided to follow my intuition."

Maybe it's my inner intuition affecting me, making me feel like this theory must be correct, and only this seemingly least likely successful path can lead to the ultimate hall of truth.

Jiang Cheng's rationale is just his intuition; intuition tells him to make a very irrational choice this time.

Intuition is a very curious thing; most of the time, intuition isn't very useful, it just affects the accuracy of your judgment.

But sometimes intuition is exceptionally precise, able to guide people on the right path. Now Jiang Cheng has decided to follow his feelings, after all, it's his own choice; if he's wrong, he can't blame others.

Finally, Jiang Cheng lightly said, "Perhaps I am just the kind of person who likes adventure, which is why I chose the most difficult path."
