Great Country Academician

Chapter 407 The world in chaos

With the Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Project officially launched the construction of the demonstration reactor.

The whole field of controllable nuclear fusion and the field of plasma physics suddenly became a mess.

Almost all countries are looking for experts and professors to evaluate how far Huaguo's controllable nuclear fusion has developed, and scholars in related fields are discussing, exchanging and expressing their opinions on the Internet.

On Twitter, Musk, a well-known American entrepreneur, responded quickly after receiving the news.

[This is a monument of controllable nuclear fusion. The emergence of the demonstration reactor will mean that we are one step closer to the ultimate energy of our dreams. It is the holy grail of the energy field, and it can illuminate our invisible future. 】

[Traditional fossil energy is destined to be abandoned with the development of the times, not only because of environmental pollution, we need a healthy ecological earth, but also because of the low efficiency of fossil energy, relatively speaking, electric energy is the future The way out is not only in the future, but also now, whether it is life or transportation, we cannot do without electric energy. 】

[I desperately hope that it will come sooner. 】

[For this reason, I decided to invest 3 billion rice gold to establish TinySpot fusion energy company, hoping to contribute my own strength to the great cause of controllable nuclear fusion. 】

【Of course, I also hope that like-minded friends will participate together. Whether it is a researcher or engineer in the field of controllable nuclear fusion, or other friends who are interested in investing together, I welcome them all. 】

Compared with other bigwigs in the business field, Musk is more keen on surfing the Internet and expressing his opinions and opinions.

It has to be said that after this tweet came out, countless netizens on Twitter also started discussing it.

[God, is controlled nuclear fusion really coming? ! ! 】

[Unbelievable, Huaguo is about to open the demonstration reactor, and we are still doing plasma operation experiments in seconds, why can Huaguo come from behind? Where are our investments being spent? 】

【I just said that Hua Guo’s withdrawal from ITER is not good news. Look, when the spark of controlled nuclear fusion lights up on that red land, ITER has not even started to build a demonstration reactor. 】

[This is really terrible. 】

[Perhaps the situation is not as bad as you think. They only achieved two hours of operation a few months ago. It is impossible to solve all the problems suddenly now, especially the first wall material. This is probably just released by Huaguo After all, we are competing now. 】

[Your news upstairs is seriously behind. I heard that Professor Xu has already solved the problem of the first wall material. 】

【impossible! The problem of neutron irradiation is not so easy to solve. Whether it is metal or non-metal, high-energy neutrons will destroy its crystal structure. You say it is solved, so what kind of material is used? 】

[I really don't know if your head has grown to the horse's buttocks. Do you think Academician Xu will reveal this kind of core material? 】

[To be honest, I prefer to believe that he really solved the problem of the first wall material, not because of anything else, just look at his past achievements, and you will believe it. 】

On the other side, Washington, White House.

An old man who just took office is roaring with the last strength of his life.

"Xie Te! Are you eating shit in your daily work? Why, why Huaguo is going to start the construction of the demonstration reactor, but I haven't received any news."

"Why, why did I only find out about this important matter after it was reported by the opposite news media? Didn't you set up a special team? What about the people? What about the work? What about the results? Did it all go to pigs? "

For him, there is nothing worse than news.

Not long after taking office, I heard such bad news.

That's not good news for his pre-election promise to focus on economic issues that would revive America.

He also promised to be "president of all Americans," including those who did not support his candidacy.

Now it seems that the outside world may have more opinions on him.

On the opposite side, William Joseph Burns, director of the CIA, Dan Brouillette, director of the energy department, and Coker Brooke, director representative of ITER, who were personally promoted by him, were standing together.

William Joseph Burns was alright, the expression on his face didn't change much, but the expressions of Dan Brouillette and ITER director representative Coker Brooke were a bit complicated.

Huaguo actually started the construction of a demonstration reactor.

This is something they never thought of, especially for Coker Brook, this is simply a fantasy.

No one knows better than him what the difference is between the experimental reactor and the demonstration reactor.

If the demonstration reactor is completed, I am afraid that it is not far from real commercial use.

William Joseph Burns calmly wiped the saliva flying over his face, cleared his throat, and said:

"This is related to my predecessor, Ms. Gina Haspel. I sorted out all the information during her tenure and found that she did not take many measures against the other side."

"It also caused us to miss a lot of critical news."

"Of course, I will immediately improve this phenomenon."

Like the elderly president in front of him, he has not been in office for a long time. Of course, before he became the director, he had already worked in the Central Intelligence Agency, so he was very clear about related matters.

It's just that now, let's throw the pot out first.

Gina Haspel had left anyway, and it was impossible to confront him here again.

On the opposite side, the elderly president took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and asked, "I want to know how long it will take Huaguo to solve the technology of controllable nuclear fusion? How long do we have? "

Hearing this, William Joseph Burns coughed lightly, and said, "Director Kirker Brooke knows."

As he said that, he looked at Coker Brooke: "Director Coker, please explain, it was your decision to clear Huaguo from ITER."

Hearing his name, Coker Brooke sighed in his heart. His feeling at the meeting in Kadarashidi seemed to be coming true.

Taking a deep breath, he raised his head and said, "I think we seriously underestimated Huaguo's investment in controllable nuclear fusion, and also seriously underestimated the opponent's technical reserves."

"If the controllable nuclear fusion demonstration reactor is really built and can successfully achieve ignition operation ignition, I am afraid they are not far from the real controllable nuclear fusion commercial use."

"Even if the demonstration reactor is still some distance away from the real commercial reactor, there are still many problems to be solved. But for Huaguo, it may not be a difficult task."

"What about the specific time? How long do we have?" The elderly president asked, staring at him.

After thinking for a while, Coker Brooke said cautiously: "As far as my personal assessment is concerned, if the demonstration reactor is built, it may take at most two to three years before they can be used commercially."

"If you count the time to build the demonstration reactor, we have at most no more than five years. If the other party goes well, this time may be shortened to three years."

Hearing this, the elderly president couldn't help putting his hands on his forehead.

Three years is really too short.

All of a sudden, it changed from fifty years forever to three years. This time span is so large that it is really difficult for people to accept.

Why, why did the countries where everyone was still on the same starting line and even lagging behind them suddenly counterattack and overtake, leaving them far behind?

In the office, there was silence.

William Joseph Burns coughed lightly, broke the deadly atmosphere, and said, "Maybe it's not Hua Guo that we underestimated, but that Professor Xu."

Hearing this, the other three people cast their gazes over.

The new director thought for a while, and then said: "I have read the survey data. Two years ago, Huaguo's development in the field of controllable nuclear fusion was at the same level as ours, or even a little behind."

"The change started when Professor Xu took control of the Qixia Controllable Fusion Project in 19 years."

"In fact, at present, the achievements Huaguo has made in the field of controllable nuclear fusion in the past two years are basically from the Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Project led by Professor Xu."

"And I have investigated that Professor Xu not only has made great contributions in the theoretical field of mathematics, physics and astronomy, but also is a top scientist in materials science."

"The Chuanhai Materials Research Institute under his name has developed artificial SEI thin films, solved the problem of lithium dendrites, and created that high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting material."

"The latter is the key to solving the plasma turbulence, which has been demonstrated in the spiral stone 7X."

"It can be said that in the field of materials science, his achievements are worthy of the Nobel Prize, and we have seriously underestimated him in this regard."

"It can be said that without that Professor Xu, Huaguo's development in the field of controllable nuclear fusion would not have come to where it is today."

"In 18 years, letting him go was the worst thing that Mr. President did."

"This kind of top talent, no matter what, we should keep it."

"Even if you can't keep it, you can't put the other party back."

"Like the Professor Qian decades ago, this Professor Xu is also a scholar with terrifying abilities. Even, he is even more terrifying than the one decades ago."

"Because he not only has great achievements in theory, but also is a scholar who can transform theory into real application and technology."

PS: I am asking for a monthly pass in the second watch, a little card text (it should have been 4000 characters (.ω.))
