Huge Technical Advancements

To Chen Chen, the discovery of the normal-temperature superconductor would solve many technical challenges that he faced. 

For instance, the electromagnetic levitation that was effortlessly produced by the normal-temperature superconductor would allow the frictionless bearing of the T-800 to perpetually be in pristine condition, indicating a huge upgrade for Chen Chen's robot.

Take another instance, the construction of an electromagnetic weapon, a weapon that utilized zero-resistance magnetic field generated by a superconductor. Previously, superconductors could only be stored under low temperatures. Its strict environmental requirement had rendered the material extremely inflexible and it was unsuitable to be used to construct a small, convenient electromagnetic weapon.
