Chapter 2 The gears of fate began to turn
Chapter 2 The gears of fate began to turn
In order to verify his conjecture, Kang Chi found a few other items to check and found that only the items he made or repaired had panels.
Then he prepared to study the meaning of experience and upgrade one by one.
”The experience of the lenses I made myself is 0, and I can’t upgrade them even if I can…”
So the question is how to get experience?
After thinking about it, Kang Chi took out a camera body, installed his plastic lens on it, and took a lot of random photos in the store, and finally took off the lens to take a look.
[Experience: 0.1/100] (Can be converted into general experience 0.01)
[General experience: 0]
Experience has indeed increased!
But the question is: why is it only increased so much? Is it because random shooting increases slowly?
In addition, how did a general experience emerge again?
Those who have played KanColle may know that universal experience can be used to upgrade all ships! Kang Chi speculated that this thing should be the same!
“Boss, is my lens repaired?”
Just when Kang Chi was thinking about it, a middle-aged man in a jacket walked into the store.
“It’s fixed, you try it!”
Kang Chi took out the lens that had just been repaired.
After a simple test, the man put it on the camera and took a few photos. After confirming that there was no problem, he simply paid the three hundred repair fee.
“Wait!”
Just when the man was about to leave, Kang Chi suddenly stopped him.
“Um… I have a lens here, can you take a few photos with it?”
“Take a photo?”
Looking at the lens handed over by Kang Chi, the man’s eyes were full of confusion.
Such a rough plastic shell…
You call this a lens?
“Yes, just take some photos. I think you are an old photographer, and your photography skills must be good. I want you to test this lens.”
”This… did you make it yourself?”
”Yes, please!”
Seeing Kang Chi’s expectant face, the man reluctantly changed to Kang Chi’s lens.
He studied it first, and after confirming that this thing seemed to be really useful, he began to look for subjects in the store. After taking a group of photos, he went outside to take a few more groups.
The old man is still a good person. Although he is obviously reluctant, he is still very serious when doing things.
“The image quality of your lens… is really hard to describe.”
After the test, the man returned the lens to Kang Chi and commented: “Under the high light ratio and backlight outside, the picture is so blurry that I can’t even see the subject clearly. Even under uniform light, it is blurry as if a magic filter is added. It makes me feel like I’m using a tape recorder from the 1970s and 1980s…”
“Normal, thank you for your review.” Kang Chi nodded without any concern, “Plastic lens, hand-polished, no coating, actually just made for fun.”
You made it for fun and asked me to test it? The man complained in his heart and left in a hurry.
After he left, Kang Chi immediately picked up the lens and looked at it.
[Experience: 1.1/100] (can be converted into general experience 0.11)
Sure enough, it has increased!
This means that as long as the lens he made, even if others use it, they can gain experience.
This mechanism is clear. He doesn’t need to earn experience himself. It encourages users to use it. The more intensive the use, the better! After confirming this, Kang Chi immediately turned on the computer and posted an event on the Daqin Optics store: free replacement!
In fact, for Daqin Optics’ products, this kind of event is not very attractive.
Users usually play with it for a few days and then throw it into a small corner to accumulate dust. Then one day, they clean up the garbage and throw it into the trash can.
As for the demand for replacement…
No one will really use this toy lens until it breaks, and then think about repurchasing it? Kang Chi just holds the fluke mentality of doing long-term activities to see if he can pick up a full experience…
It doesn’t matter if it’s not satisfied, it can be converted into general experience! Unexpectedly, Kang Chi received a replacement request that night.
From the address, the other party is most likely a student of Lin’an Academy of Fine Arts, and Lin’an and Dongyang are not far away, so Kang Chi received the package the next afternoon.
After opening the package, Kang Chi was stunned.
This quality…
Is it used to shoot war news?
KangChi picked up this lens that had obviously been used intensively, full of curiosity about the user.
What kind of person would use this toy lens as a regular lens? Too poor to afford a lens? Hmm…
It’s not impossible.
There are many people who want to learn photography from ordinary families.
Good boy, be patient, wait for Daqin Optics to save you!
Kang Chi picked up the lens with expectation and looked at the panel:
[Item: Daqin Optics 50mm F1.4 Lens]
[Manufacturer: Kang Chi]
[Item Level: 1]
[Experience: 235/100 (upgradable)]
[Mastery Points: 1]
[Item Status: Old, No Analysis Items]
As expected, after being used intensively, the experience has overflowed! Kang Chi immediately clicked the plus sign behind the experience panel and upgraded the lens.
After a flash of light, the lens suddenly became different.
The previous lens was just a rough plastic toy, but after the upgrade, it became much more refined. The burrs of the plastic were completely repaired. Although it was still made of plastic, the gap was visibly smaller by the naked eye. The texture in the hand was many times better than before! Just the appearance is almost the same as the lenses of big manufacturers! ‘
Kang Chi looked at the upgraded attribute panel again: [Item: Daqin Optics 50mm F1.4 Lens]
[Manufacturer: Kang Chi]
[Item Level: 2]
[Experience: 135/400]
[Mastery Points: 1]
[Item Status: Intact, Resolvable]
In addition to the item level being upgraded by one level, the item status has also changed from no resolution item to resolvable.
So Kang Chi tried to click the analysis button, and the panel suddenly turned into a tree diagram.
Structural analysis requires 1 mastery point.
Lens analysis requires 1 mastery point.
Material analysis requires 1 mastery point.
Process analysis requires 3 mastery points.
Sure enough, just as Kang Chi thought, this analysis system is simply a reverse analysis, analyzing the technology in the lens.
He only has a little mastery point now, and can only consider the three directions of structure, lens, and material. As for the structure, as long as he disassembles the lens himself, he can also analyze it roughly, so he passes it first.
Kang Chi didn’t rush to make a decision for the remaining two, but took a photo after installing the lens.
What the hell?
Is the image quality improved so much after the upgrade?
Kang Chi looked at the photo on the camera screen, clicked to enlarge it and began to study it carefully.
The dispersion is obviously much smaller, which makes the image quality much clearer, almost on par with the image quality of a large zoom lens that costs two or three thousand yuan.
Kang Chi saw this and chose the lens analysis without hesitation.
Soon, a series of explosive information violently poured into Kang Chi’s brain, causing him to gasp in pain.
However, as the information infusion ended, the pain soon subsided, and Kang Chi had the energy to digest the analysis data obtained.
The material used for the lens is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), an optical resin with excellent optical, mechanical, thermal and chemical properties.
To put it bluntly, it is a kind of plastic, but it has better light transmittance than the ordinary transparent plastic that Kang Chi used before.
This analysis only obtained basic information about the material, without more specific material structure and production process. It is estimated that material analysis and process analysis must be carried out before it can be completely produced by itself.
However, Kangchi currently rubs the lenses by hand. Unless it wants to mass-produce lenses in the future, it does not need to produce them by itself. It can just purchase them directly.
Next is the highlight of the analysis: the doublet achromatic lens! Kangchi originally simply polished a convex lens and made a single-lens lens, but after the upgrade, a convex lens was superimposed on this concave-convex lens, which greatly reduced the dispersion and chromatic aberration. At the same time, there is a layer of metal film on the lens to reduce the reflected light.
These two points are the key to making the lens image clear! As the information is digested, Kangchi’s understanding of the doublet achromatic lens and the single-layer metal coating is getting deeper and deeper.
After fully digesting it, Kangchi has a good grasp of how to rub this kind of lens.
A doublet achromatic lens may not be considered a high-tech thing these days.But this is just a lens that has been upgraded once! If we continue to upgrade and analyze, what level can we reach in the end? In addition to the lens, can the camera also be upgraded and analyzed?
If the camera can, mobile phones, chips…even airplanes, rockets, aircraft carriers, can anything he makes be upgraded? Thinking of this, Kang Chi couldn’t help but tremble all over…
This plug-in has great potential! Kang Chi clenched his fists and shivered: “The gears of fate have begun to turn!”
