Together with Newton and Leonardo da Vinci, he is known as one of the three greatest wizards in human history, and the scratch paper he used during his lifetime was archived by the United States as a top state secret.
Some people say that he is the smartest person in the world, and his IQ is a staggering 600, of course, all this can not be confirmed.
He invented alternating current, which ushered in a new era of electrical appliances, and more than 100 years ago, he created a wall of photons, and an electric current of 1 million volts, as well as the achievement of wireless transmission of electric current.
But because of the calculation, many people today do not know him. He was Nikola Tesla.
Tesla, the world's most famous electric car now, is also named after him. People who know Tesla regard him as a god," and he once said: I can split the earth in half if I want, which shows how strong his self-confidence is.
So if he is so powerful, why has he not won a Nobel Prize once? In fact, this is nothing to him, he has rejected the Nobel Prize 9 times, his mind is only on scientific creation, and he does not care so much about awards and reputation.
Born in 1856 in a small village in Croatia, Tesla ranked 4th out of five children in the family, he looked different from an early age, Tesla loved to invent and create during his childhood, and even made a water wheel without blades at the age of 5.
At that time, his personality was very strange, he did not want to eat with others, nor did he let others touch his hair.
He has a subconscious habit of calculating, even walking to calculate the number of steps. But Tesla, who has shown talent since childhood, has not been successful academically.
Tesla, who has more than 1,000 inventions, invented radio transmission and flying saucers across the ages, but who would have thought that he only attended school for one year and dropped out of school without getting a diploma.
Fortunately, he went to Prague for two years, attending courses at the university and self-studying in the library, and finally received an undergraduate diploma.
With a college degree, he was able to achieve things that most scientists could not achieve.
He couldn't even find a stable job during this period, until 1882, when he got a chance to work as an engineer at the Edison Telephone Company, when Edison, who was 9 years older than him, was a Tesla idol.
By then Edison's career had been so successful that he used his status as a scientist to make a profit in business, making him famous and profitable. This is also the reason why his fame is much louder than Tesla's.
In fact, tesla was able to go to Edison's company at that time mainly because of the recommendation of Charles, the general manager of the branch at that time, Charles said: I know two great people, one is you, the other is Tesla.
In the company, thanks to Tesla's genius, he quickly came to prominence, and any problem that seemed difficult in front of others would become simple in his hands, which began to make Edison feel threatened.
Until one point Edison asked him to improve a batch of the company's DC generators and promised him a $50,000 reward. But when he finished the task and asked Edison for a bonus, Edison rejected him on the grounds that "it was just an American humor".
It was also from here that they began to resemble strangers, even tit-for-tat.
Fortunately, Tesla already had his own ideas, he began to study alternating current motors from before, and the alternating current system was a more advanced power system compared to the direct current system at that time, which directly triggered the current war between Tesla and Edison.
Who is the "King of Invention"? In the current war of 1893, Edison was defeated by a small unknown person in the field of invention and creation.
We used to look like the mighty Edison deliberately suppressed and smeared him for profit, sent people to publicize this man's invention as a malicious creation, and rumored that his alternating current was the invention of the devil and would cause people to sw.
In fact, not only that, Edison would have used vicious means to plagiarize other people's patents for his own benefit long before this.
In the end, in order to protect its own patents, Tesla had to sell the patents for alternating current to other companies to prevent it from falling into the hands of Edison.
It was the Chicago Exposition in 1893 that decided the outcome of the current war. Westinghouse then bid for ac lighting at the Chicago Fair.
This is a major event in the history of alternating current development, and Westinghouse and Tesla hope to show the American people at this expo that alternating current is reliable and safe. Finally, alternating current shined at the expo, allowing Tesla to win the current war.
Since then, alternating current has become the main way of power supply, and at that time some people used every horse.
Tesla can get $2.50 in royalties, and some people have calculated that this patent fee can bring Tesla $300 billion in revenue, but unexpectedly, Tesla tore up the patent contract at that time and made the invention free for the world to use.
Tesla has more than 1,000 invention patents in his lifetime, and the power invention system in the world today is largely based on Tesla's invention, and many of our inventions now are conceived by him.
Even his inventions after the age of 40 have now been blocked, and tesla is said to have studied super-energy particle weapons before his death, proposed the concept of beam weapons, and even invented inventions such as artificial lightning, radio transmission and flying saucers.
Tesla died in 1943, when three Nobel Laureates in Physics delivered speeches that attracted attention from all over the United States.
It is said that many people in later generations were inspired by the study of Tesla's inventions, and 27% of them won the Nobel Prize in Physics for this reason.
