SHANGHAI — More than a decade ago, Chinese physicist Pan Jian-Wei returned home from Europe to help oversee research into some of the most important technology of the 21st century.

Newton's Laws of Motion laid the intellectual foundation
for the Automobile, the Airplane and the Railroad.
Quantum Mechanics is the foundation for precisely what,
other than some Chinese bullshitter running off at the mouth???
