But even so, it is beyond their imagination. There are still questions about this, but it is not a question of whether it can be done.
Emperor Chongzhen asked Zhang Mingwei with various complex emotions such as curiosity and expectation, "Sir, isn't this electricity only absorbs iron sheets? How can it spread sound? It sounds so incredible!"
When others heard this, they nodded repeatedly, and no one could figure out the key.
Zhang Mingwei smiled and immediately replied to Emperor Chongzhen: "Although electricity can not only absorb iron sheets, but the characteristic of iron sheets can already convey our words to a place thousands of miles away."
When Emperor Chongzhen and others heard this, they showed an incredible expression on their faces, as if they were saying: Sir, aren’t we stupid, aren’t we stupid? Or are we too stupid to understand your words at all?
When Zhang Mingwei saw their expressions, he didn't say much, and immediately signaled to Liu Jin again and asked him to continue shaking the handle.
Then Zhang Mingwei held the electromagnet in one hand, suspended it over the iron sheet, and with the other hand, he pressed a switch on the line, and then began to move.
Under the gaze of Emperor Chongzhen and others, a magical scene happened again. I saw those iron pieces being sucked for a while, but not sucked for a while.
Emperor Chongzhen and others knew that the call that Zhang Mingwei mentioned was probably related to the phenomenon in front of him, so they all opened their eyes wide and thought that other strange phenomena would appear.
However, after waiting for a long time, they only saw the iron sheet being sucked up for a while and not being sucked up for a while. Apart from that, there was no other phenomenon.
So everyone in the Huangji Palace was stunned again.
Zhang Mingwei did not ask them to wait for more, and directly answered their questions: "Your Majesty, did you see it just now? By pressing this switch, that is, to cut off or connect the electricity, the time for the iron sheet to be absorbed is different. It is precisely because the time is different, which can represent multiple meanings. As long as we encode different combinations of the time of adsorbing iron sheets through one method, we can convey what we want to say."
Emperor Chongzhen finally heard the key to the problem clearly and asked curiously: "Sir, what does encoding mean? Different combinations of time for adsorbing iron sheets?"
"That's right!" Zhang Mingwei smiled immediately after hearing this, "The key is this code! To give a simple example, the time of adsorbing iron sheets is one length and one short represents my Zhang word Zhang, two short represents my Ming word, and two long represents my Wei word. In this way, when you see the iron sheets in such an adsorption pattern, you will know that the message I conveyed is the three words Zhang Mingwei."
Hearing this, a sudden "Oh" sound of enlightenment sounded in the Huangji Palace.
I have to say that through Zhang Mingwei's demonstration and the simple example just now, at least these ancients have already understood the basic principles.
But in this way, they had new doubts. The cabinet chief Du Yinxi asked curiously: "But we have so many Chinese characters, how can we do what we want to say? After all, there are too many Chinese characters, and it is probably not enough to just add up to the length of time, right?"
When everyone else, including Emperor Chongzhen, nodded, which was definitely a problem!
Zhang Mingwei had no intention of being stumped, and immediately replied with a smile: "I just gave a simple example. There are two ways to solve the situation you mentioned."
When they heard this, the people in the Huangji Palace were a little stunned. They all thought it was an unsolvable problem. Why did it become two solutions when it came to Duke Xingguo?
This person’s mind is really incomparable. Why does Duke Xingguo have so many things in his mind?
Then Emperor Chongzhen quickly asked Zhang Mingwei: "Sir, what are the two methods?"
Zhang Mingwei did not irritate their appetite and directly answered Emperor Chongzhen: "The first method is to write all our Chinese characters into a book, and then mark each Chinese character, such as the first line, the first column of the first page, the first column of the fifth page, the eighth row, the seventh column of the seventh column of the seventh column of the fiveth page, etc. The three numbers can be positioned to a Chinese character, so we only need to use the length of the adsorbed iron sheet to represent these three numbers to position any Chinese character."
Hearing this, everyone in the Huangji Palace nodded. Indeed, if you do this, you can simply convert countless Chinese characters into three numbers descriptions. It’s not bad!
Emperor Chongzhen also nodded when he heard this, and then asked Zhang Mingwei curiously: "What about another way?"
"Another way is..." Zhang Mingwei said, and raised his voice a little, continuing, "That is, we pronounce all Chinese characters and then encode these pronunciations, so that all Chinese characters can be expressed. However, relatively speaking, because the pronunciation of Chinese characters is better the same, sometimes we need to combine the context to determine what character is!"
Emperor Chongzhen immediately smiled and said, "There must be no first way!"
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Zhang Mingwei shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, although the first method is indeed simple in communication, the second method is also good."
"Why?" Emperor Chongzhen asked strangely after hearing this.
The others also looked at Zhang Mingwei and wanted to hear what he answered.
Zhang Mingwei replied to Emperor Chongzhen: "At present, there are too few people who can read and read in the Ming Dynasty. The reason is that it is not easy to read. You have to teach Chinese characters step by step. If you have this method of pronunciation, as long as you learn the rules of pronunciation, you can pronounce them according to the rules of pronunciation, so as to speed up the progress of reading and literacy, and you can popularize reading and literacy on a larger scale and reduce the illiteracy rate of my Ming Dynasty. I hope that one day in the future, everyone in our Ming Dynasty will read and read."
Hearing this, the people in the Huangji Palace were silent again, and they all looked at Zhang Mingwei and were a little stunned.
Zhang Mingwei's words, especially his desire to read and read in the Ming Dynasty. This ambition is like opening peace for the ages, and it only exists in a wish. How can reality be possible?
However, Zhang Mingwei's mind really made them very impressed. Even if they were full of students, they never thought that everyone in the Ming Dynasty could read and read.
But their shock was shocked by Zhang Mingwei's ambition!
After a while, Emperor Chongzhen, who came to his senses, murmured: "I'm afraid it's impossible to let everyone in the Ming Dynasty read and read, right?"
"Your Majesty, nothing is impossible, as long as we work hard!" Zhang Mingwei said to Emperor Chongzhen seriously and seriously, "Your Majesty think about it. How many things have happened before, but didn't we do them all in the end?"
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he immediately remembered it.
When the husband had just crossed the journey, in the Battle of Songjin, the main force of the Ming Dynasty was wiped out, and the thieves in the pass raged to the Central Plains, and natural disasters and man-made disasters never stopped. At that time, I felt like I was desperate.
Facts also prove that from that documentary, we can know that the Ming Dynasty will perish in just two years, and I will also hang myself on the crooked tree.
But now, the crooked neck tree has been cut down by itself, and most of the thieves have been recruited and are still serving the country, fighting on the battlefield and killing Jianlu. Everything is getting better.
Not to mention, it was really something that I could not have thought of three years ago.
All these things still feel like I am still dreaming when I think about them.
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen felt very moved and nodded to Zhang Mingwei and said, "Sir, what we say is reasonable. As long as we work hard, there is nothing we can't do!"
When the others in the Huangji Palace heard this, they stopped talking. Although they thought it was impossible, the emperor had already made the final decision. Just think that this kind of thing can be realized, and let’s have a good wish!
Unexpectedly, when they were thinking about this, Zhang Mingwei said to Emperor Chongzhen: "I have actually used this method of pronunciation in the Jinyiwei, and asked them to teach the soldiers in the army. For now, the effect is good."
When everyone heard this, they were stunned.
Those who don’t know this will not know at all, and there is nothing.
But some people know that, for example, Emperor Chongzhen, he knew that the Jinyiwei Supervisor would teach the soldiers to read and read in his spare time in the army.
At that time, he only heard about it and did not take it to heart. He thought it was just Zhang Mingwei's literati idea, which was related to war.
He was thinking about it when he saw Zhang Mingwei take out a volume of information from his sleeve and hand it to Emperor Chongzhen with both hands, while saying to him: "There are the method of pronunciation here, and the statistics on the effect of this method of pronunciation in the army."
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen hurriedly took it over and found that it was very detailed. After reading this information, he suddenly realized that this should have been done by later generations.
When he thought of this, he said without saying a word and said, "Okay, sir, this method is very good. I think it is OK. In the future, the entire Ming Dynasty will use this method of pronunciation to read and read."
When others heard this, they couldn't help but be a little stunned. Should Duke Xingguo's phonetics be implemented nationwide?
But looking back, let’s not talk about the method of pronunciation that helps read and read, and can transform this kind of electricity adsorption ability into speech thousands of miles away. Just this is the only thing that should be worth it!
Therefore, no one in the Huangji Palace objected.
Zhang Mingwei was not surprised by this. Putting aside his status, he first showed these ancient people a very unimaginable prospect in his previous experiments on using electricity.
