Great Country Academician

In the office, Xu Chuan was silent for a while.

To be honest, he really didn't care about the antitrust investigation against him.

He has a need for funds now, but it is not that high.

And more importantly, he is a scholar, a scientific researcher, not a businessman.

To put it simply, it is austerity without desire.

He has nothing to ask for from the United States, so naturally he doesn't want to mess with the other party.

But when it comes to ITER, other domestic scholars and the development of controllable nuclear fusion, he has to think more about it.

Xu Chuan didn't ask Miguo why they did this, nor did they ask why they did it.

Because he knows that for that country to really want to do these things, the most common and even illogical excuse is enough.

Anyway, it is not the first time that the United States has been shameless.

The question now is how to deal with this matter.

After thinking for a while, Xu Chuan looked at Tan Yangxu and asked, "What do you think? Are there any arrangements or countermeasures?"

Tan Yangxu replied cautiously: "This matter is very troublesome. After receiving the relevant news, there has been a meeting to discuss it. But to be honest, we don't have any good solution."

"The purpose of my coming here this time is also to communicate with you and see how to deal with these things."

Hearing Tan Yangxu asking his opinion, Xu Chuan couldn't help frowning.

After thinking for two minutes, Xu Chuan looked up at Tan Yangxu. Seeing this, the energy director immediately sat up straight, waiting for instructions with a solemn face.

Not paying much attention to this, he tapped the table lightly with his index finger and said, "Let me tell you my opinion."

Hearing this, Tan Yangxu quickly took out his notebook and prepared to record it.

Xu Chuan thought for a while, organized his language and continued: "First of all, based on my understanding of the United States, if I disclose the two technologies of high-temperature superconducting materials and numerical control models this time, the Americans will still go further and ask for other technologies next time. thing."

"The key to making such great progress in the Dawn Device is these two technologies. If we hand it over, it will not only cause us to lose our lead in the field of controllable nuclear fusion, but also have a great impact on other fields."

"From my point of view, this is a new race."

"Although ITER has indeed provided us with a lot of help in the past, we have also paid billions and tens of billions of funds and related technologies for ITER, and getting help from there is not free."

"And today's ITER is actually not that helpful to us. On the one hand, the progress of ITER is far less than that of Lixiao. On the other hand, with Lixiao making such great progress, I am afraid that other countries will not be able to Provided technical assistance to us."

"After all, you and I both know the importance of controllable nuclear fusion."

"So instead of being subject to other people in ITER in the future, why don't we just quit ITER!"

"As for those scholars and scientific researchers who were originally doing research on ITER, if they want, I can accept them all."

"Of course, if we do this, we will lose all our previous investment in ITER. This is indeed a pity. But this is the end of the matter, we should stop it."

"Retreat, it is impossible for us to retreat, and there is no way out."

In Xu Chuan's view, instead of continuing to mess with ITER, it is better to withdraw the personnel and funds directly and focus on doing its own thing in China.

What ITER can provide is actually not so attractive to today's dawn.

As for the future development trend and follow-up research direction of controlled nuclear fusion, with him here, why worry about this?

In this area, Xu Chuan dared to say that the entire ITER could not PK him alone.

On the opposite side, Tan Yangxu quickly recorded some key information, and then asked with some concern: "Exiting ITER is also a way, but will this have any impact on the development of our controllable nuclear fusion field?"

Before coming here, it's not that the top management didn't ask the experts and academicians of the Academy of Sciences to learn something about this aspect.

Withdrawing from ITER and giving up those previous investments, although the losses are indeed huge, it is not unacceptable to the country.

However, if withdrawing from ITER will affect the development of controllable nuclear fusion in China, it needs to be considered.

Of course, the most important opinion lies in the mouth of the young national treasure scholar in front of him.

If he feels that it is okay to quit, then the above will definitely refer to his opinion.

After all, it was he, not others, who brought Huaguo's controllable nuclear fusion field to the peak and created miracles.

Hearing this question, Xu Chuan relaxed a lot. He leaned against the back of his chair and said with a relaxed smile, "Don't worry, I can guarantee that it won't have too much impact."

"EAST may be affected a bit, but for the dawn, the impact is almost negligible. After all, from the very beginning, the dawn is a separate and independent project."

After a pause, he continued: "And based on Lixiao's current progress, ITER can't provide much help. We managed to run for more than two hours, and we all started deuterium-tritium fusion experiments, while other countries , with the exception of Helix 7X, experiments are basically still carried out in units of seconds."

"You said that they who are more backward can provide us with great help?"

Hearing what Xu Chuan said, Tan Yangxu also had a smile on his face.

Indeed, in a certain field, backward countries may have some unique advantages in technology, but it must be the country that is at the forefront that really pushes this field forward.

Smiling, he said, "With your words, Academician Xu, I feel at ease. I will fully report back today's exchange and your opinions."

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"You're welcome, this is what I should do." Tan Yangxu stood up with a smile, said goodbye and left the office.

In the office, after Xu Chuan watched Tan Yangxu leave, he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to meditate.

In his view, this is a new competition that is no less intense than the Cold War of the last century.

Under the general trend, the only real answer is to move forward.

The change in the field of controllable nuclear fusion is the beginning of this competition, and may also be the key to determining the new world pattern.

As a key figure at the center of this vortex of disputes, what he can do is to do his best to promote the development of Lixiao, so that the spark of controllable nuclear fusion will be the first to light up on this land of China.

Thinking about it, Xu Chuan opened his eyes, took a long breath and walked towards the laboratory.

The dispute of fate begins again from this moment!
