However, the content of these books proved to be quite profound, leaving Lei Jun feeling completely lost.

Lei Jun took to his personal Weibo account, expressing, "I always thought I was decent at physics. I planned to give these a thorough read, but ended up on my knees. I simply can't grasp it."

In response, Zhang Chaoyang retweeted Lei Jun's post, offering words of encouragement. He advised Lei Jun not to be disheartened, suggesting he patiently persevere: "If you're having trouble understanding it because it's been a while, with your intelligence, spending some time studying it should bring clarity." s_a2c7945251b94cf191c1e90516a8e76f.png To further ignite Lei Jun's passion for physics, Zhang Chaoyang also revealed that the book contains knowledge of computational fluid dynamics, which could greatly benefit the analysis of the aerodynamic characteristics of Xiaomi's SU7 car.

"The second volume is good, there's computational fluid dynamics later on. It could be useful for analyzing the wind resistance of the SU7. Hopefully, it will spark Lei's interest in physics, we should discuss it when we have time."

With the interaction between Lei Jun and Zhang Chaoyang, could these two physics books become popular, or even bestsellers? s_a58b2972e10e4653af47c455a22d592f.jpg
