Actually, we can’t blame Wang Fengfeng.
He was a computer information extraction specialist, or in other words, a hacker. Although he dealt with information all day long, it was mostly mission-driven.
For example, the previous investigation into Lin Fan’s information was at John Woo’s request.
After Lin Fan became one of them, her information was encrypted layer by layer.
Beyond basic personal information, any higher-level data required permission to view. For example, her special skill, listed in her personnel file, consisted solely of the word "transformation."
Although everyone knew that she could transform into a star due to her special nature, that was because of the previous video that spread and word of mouth.
The information actually recorded in the register is not visible to most people.
Except for a few people involved in this meeting, no one else has access rights.
The detailed data information of the stars can be said to be top-level encrypted data.
Even John Woo only has a rough idea of it. After all, those professional data are difficult for ordinary people to understand.
Jin Sichen had seen some of it. Although he had a high IQ, he was still overwhelmed by the data.
The only information Wen Ji had was about Lin Fan himself, and he only had a rough idea of Xingchen's information.
He had little interest in anything other than medicine, and if Xingchen and Lin Fan were not closely related, he wouldn't even pay attention.
If the later stars had nothing to do with Lin Fan's body, he would not apply for additional access permissions.
Therefore, in the Special Affairs Office, apart from Zhu Cunjun, only Quan Yingdong and Ban Hai have all the information about Xingchen.
They are the ones who can truly understand. Besides them, the research team prepared by the Special Affairs Office for Xingchen will also become the group of people who understand Xingchen the most.
Wang Fengfeng had no habit of prying into other people's privacy. Although he cared about Lin Fan's situation, he wouldn't investigate privately. So it was normal for him not to know Xingchen's true situation.
Quan Yingdong pulled him aside and explained, and only then did Wang Fengfeng realize what stupid things he had just said.
How hard are stars? Existing machines simply can't measure it.
Before, there was a Turtle Gun that could break her defense. But after the upgrade, the Turtle Gun is no longer useful, and it bends at the touch of a finger.
So now we only know that the hardness of the star's shell is the highest among all known substances in the world.
How high exactly? I don’t know.
"Harder than diamond?" Wang Fengfeng has always believed that diamond is the hardest substance in the world.
Merchants use its sturdy and stable characteristics as a gimmick and make a lot of money.
It looks good, it really does. But it’s also expensive!
"Diamond? It's not the hardest substance." Quan Yingdong chuckled.
"Isn't it?" Wang Fengfeng has been a hacker for so many years and thought that he had sufficient knowledge reserves, but he didn't expect to become a frog in a well today.
"A rough diamond is called a diamond. It's only after it's been polished into shape using a laser or diamond powder that it becomes a diamond," Quan Yingdong explained with a smile, noticing everyone looking at him. "Maybe it's because diamond jewelry is so common in everyday life, so most people think diamond is the hardest."
"In fact, before the stars appeared, diamond was only ranked third in hardness. It was also topped by graphene and carbonyne."
"Graphene?" Wang Fengfeng knew this. It was a new material that had emerged in recent years.
He also has several pieces of clothing that are said to contain graphene fibers, which are said to be antibacterial and warm. But doesn't he know that graphene is actually harder than diamond? Isn't it used to make clothes?
"Yes, graphene. Sounds familiar, right? It's also a carbon element, first isolated from graphite. Its chemical properties are exactly the same as diamond, but its physical structure is different. It's 20 times harder than diamond."
"Its uses are much wider than diamonds. It's commonly used in high-tech fields like new energy batteries, biomedicine, and aerospace. In our daily lives, graphene is found in the display screens we use..."
"Where is it in my clothes? I bought several pairs of graphene shorts before the New Year..." Wang Fengfeng said, and suddenly realized that Lin Fan was sitting next to him, and stopped talking a little embarrassedly.
"Graphene is also added to clothing. But it's usually used as a heating material, added as a whole piece." Quan Yingdong replied, "Graphene has excellent thermal and electrical conductivity. But the pants you mentioned..."
He paused for a moment and said, "Currently, graphene production is very expensive, and the purer the better. It's mostly used in industrial production related to electronics. I don't know how much your shorts cost, but if they really do contain graphene, they're definitely not cheap."
"If you were to make a pair of pants using a single layer of graphene," he gestured with his hand, "it would cost hundreds of millions of dollars. So if there's really graphene in clothing on the market, the content won't be very high. It's probably still a multi-layer structure, which means the purity isn't that high."
“Ah…” Wang Fengfeng bought it on Pinduoduo for 30 yuan for five pieces, and shipping was free.
Quan Yingdong continued, "I speculate that most current graphene clothing products have graphene powder added to textile fibers. Graphene does have antibacterial and antimicrobial effects, but that requires high purity. I don't think that small amount of powder would be very useful."
Well, he was cheated... Wang Fengfeng was dejected for three seconds, but quickly recovered. At this price, what graphene do you want!
"The hardest material is carbonyne..."
"What's missing?" Wen Ji asked.
"Fast and slow, fast. Replace the vertical heart radical with a fire radical. Pronounced quē. Carbon acetylene." Quan Yingdong explained this in detail, knowing that no one would encounter it on a daily basis. "This is currently recognized as the hardest known substance in the world. It's over forty times harder than diamond."
"It's also a single element of carbon, a compound carbon chain formed by carbon atoms in the form of trivalent bonds. Its unique structure creates such high hardness. Currently, it can only be produced in small quantities in the laboratory. As far as I know, the shell of 800's bionic armor is made of this material."
"It seems to be all carbon..." Lin Fan sighed.
Carbon doesn't seem very hard, yet it can easily burn to provide warmth. So how come the world's top three hardest substances are all made of carbon?
"That's because carbon can change into various forms and form many different chemical bonds. Similarly, it is the foundation of our life," Wen Ji explained to Xingchen's big head. "Don't we often call ourselves carbon-based life? It's because the organic matter in our bodies is composed of carbon atoms as the main chain, with hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen as additives."
"Oh..." It seemed like he understood, but also like he didn't.
Lin Fan nodded. "Very impressive, that's for sure."
"So after Xingchen's hardness test broke the record, they took the carbon yne plate to Xingchen." Quan Yingdong was also quite surprised when he saw this. "Xingchen tore through the three-centimeter-thick, one-meter-square carbon yne plate effortlessly, like paper."
Lin Fan remembered that there was such a test. She didn't know what it was for, she just followed the instructions.
Later, the boards became thicker and larger, and she felt it was effortless. She poked them with her fingers as if they were tofu. After a few times, she stopped this test.
So that's carbyne! It really does feel effortless.
If the 800 people knew about this, they would probably faint in the toilet crying.
Carbonyne is not easy to refine due to its instability. It took the entire institute years to produce this much, all of which was used to forge the bionic armor shell.
Before the actual forging, I had given it to Xingchen to test its hardness and strength. After a while, I realized it wasn't very useful, and no matter how much material I added, I couldn't find the upper limit, so I stopped.
I didn’t expect Lin Fan to still dislike it!
This is totally unfair!
People with supernatural powers are really...
It's so annoying, boohoo...
I always thought diamond was the hardest, I think my teacher taught me that. Luckily I looked it up on Baidu, otherwise I would have misled others.
I bought the graphene shorts, but they turned out to be useless. Hahaha, I got fooled.
