Chapter 30: The King of Invention and the King of Electromagnetism

Regarding Edison, the evaluation is particularly polarized.

History textbooks call him a genius, an inventor, an entrepreneur.

Modern Internet public opinion, called the copyright vampire, says that he has never invented, and those inventions are Tesla's.

Sometimes, humans are just that's weird.

For another person, the perception of another thing can become the exact opposite because of a little bit of unexpectedness.

Scientifically speaking, this way of thinking is called "generalizing from the partiality".

The typical one is Edison.

Presumably, almost everyone who came into contact with Edison read his inspirational stories in history textbooks or Chinese textbooks, such as trying filament again and again, or reading books according to size in the bookstore on the street.

Later, there were more sources of information, and gradually I learned about other aspects of this person, for example, this person especially likes to apply for patents, use patents to make profits, and fight hundreds of lawsuits in his life.

So some people wonder: Aren't you a scientist? How can scientists love money? How can a scientist do such a selfish thing?

After that, these people erased all of Edison's exploits.

Similarly, there is Columbus, who discovered the American continent.

It's subtle.

Why do human beings have to be perfect?

Can't he be an inventor and like to make money? Couldn't Columbus bring disaster to the Indians again, and at the same time was a demon who made outstanding contributions to the history of world navigation?

Fujimaru Rika suddenly remembered that he had seen a lot of negative remarks about Edison on the Internet before he came to Chaldea, such as the light bulb was invented by Tesla, and the fact that direct current does not exist is Edison's lie, and Edison actually did not do research, he just took other people's research results. The so-called 1,000 inventions are actually 1,000 plagiarisms and the like.

Originally, I wanted to ask him what he thought about this situation, but if it was mentioned earlier that super robots could not attract him, then Rika Fujimaru was ready to use this topic to ask.

But now, there is no need to ask such a question.

Edison spread out a blank piece of paper, replaced it with a pen, and after just a few brushes, he didn't even use a ruler, and drew a beautiful straight line, and the combination of lines and lines became something like an engine chassis.

He said something about the physics of direct current, but unfortunately Rika Fujimaru's high school knowledge was really not up to par and he couldn't understand it at all. It's up to Edison to explain and keep adding details to this thing, such as the pipes, the extra chassis on the outside, and so on.

As soon as I drew a few strokes, I heard Edison's words: "No! This design doesn't work! Well, it should have been designed as an octagon from the start! In this way, it may increase the expansion space, and multiple units can be combined! Yes, if you reframe it, it should be! ”

He muttered—though muttering, but in his voice, it was simply roaring—and soon a new idea of a machine appeared on the blank paper.

For a genius inventor like him, it doesn't matter what an ordinary person thinks like himself, right?

It's nothing to be revered as a genius inventor.

It's nothing to be relegated to being a copyright vampire.

Because it's all Edison.

None of them are completely Edison. You can't erase the shortcomings because of his invention. Nor can he erase the good because of his stinginess.

This lion's head, at least for now, is seriously and down-to-earth constantly conceiving new inventions.

Such a person......

Fujimaru Rika always felt that he was not a bad person.

Why, would he be willing to watch human history end?

She didn't know, she knew only one thing: she had to stop it.

By the way, Edison President Wang has been drawing for five hours.

Finally, it looks like a little bit of a super robot.

In other words, unlike the Gundam and the like, the robot designed by Edison is not in human form at all.

"Walking on two feet is not necessary for machines! The feet are designed to be a variable chariot foot that can be switched between multiple occasions! It's full of weapons! DC is invincible! Hmph, oh oh oh! My Edison Special DC must be much more powerful than Babbage, the iron god of some guy! ”

Edison triumphantly pulled out a blueprint.

However, this design drawing is too hardcore, with all kinds of extension wires, all kinds of explanatory texts, and the anatomy of three views, as well as the combination mode of internal mechanical parts, Fujimaru Rika looks like reading a book from the sky, and she doesn't understand it at all.

"Well, I, I don't understand."

"Well, that's right! Hmph, when the time comes, I'll develop a current version for you first! Hmph, your words will definitely make the most just decision! It's my Edison special DC number that's even more powerful! I promise you'll say that! ”

Rika Fujimaru was about to continue to praise him when the door was pushed open. Helena came in with a frown, glanced at Fujimaru Rika, understood a little at that time, and said, "President King, how can you have time to make inventions in a good way." Now it's time to concentrate on analyzing the Holy Grail, but everyone in the development department says they haven't received your drawings yet. ”

"Oooo Oh yes!! I forgot about it!! Damn it!!! Why was he suddenly distracted!!! ”

Edison roared in annoyance, Fujimaru Ritsuka was so frightened, and said in his heart: Should he be angry and angry, what are you going to do with me?!

Syllable!!

As if to reflect her mood, Edison slapped his palms on her shoulders......

"You!! Rika Fujimaru!!! ”

"Oops, hey, hey, me, me......, me, me,

"You must have been !!!"

"No, no, no, no! I didn't! ”

"You're sure!! It is!!! Can't go wrong!!! was hinted at by Tesla's mediocrity!! It was the mediocre guy who told you to come and provoke me!! Damn Tesla!!!!! Ahh!!h In this way, you can get in the way of me!! Tesla!!!! ”

Rika Fujimaru's eardrums are about to burst now, and she can only hear a lion roaring in oblivion.

Helena sighed, pulled away Rika Fujimaru, and urged her to go back.

Once Edison got into this state, it was a lot of trouble.

This man and Tesla can be said to be old enemies, just like Karna and Arjuna. But the two can still reconcile, after all, they are still blood relatives, and the two don't hate each other much, it's basically because of their respective positions, and the two of them are very open.

Tesla and Edison are different, one is alternating current and the other is direct current, Tesla was also excluded by Edison during his lifetime, and Edison's company's biggest competitor was also Tesla's company, and these two people can be said to have fought with each other for a lifetime.

Outsiders will not understand this feeling.

Fujimaru Rika was almost blasted back by Helena, and it could be seen that Helena found out that this side was hindering the President King. Fujimaru Rika went out in a daze, and saw Yagi Yukisai hanging his head.

"How's it going, Yagi-sen? Have you found a breakthrough? ”

"Nope. What about your side? ”

"Let's let Edison study in another direction. So what do we do? ”

"No way...... Wait. ”

Yagi Yukisai sighed, if Moriarty was here, he would definitely be able to come up with a better idea, but now his intelligence has not reached Moriarty's level. Thinking about it this way, the professor also instructed him when he returned to Chaldea to quickly change himself back after the fight......
