Guanghan.

Mayor's office.

Looking at the translucent holographic screen in front, Ye He, the mayor of Guanghan City, couldn't help but have a weird expression on his face.

"Site Selection of Second Generation Controllable Fusion Reactor?"

In front of him at this moment is a project book from East Asia Power.

In the project document, East Asia Power simply expressed the hope of upgrading the power supply system of the Guanghan Special Economic Zone, and at the same time planned a concept map of the Earth-Moon Energy Corridor, which seems quite sci-fi even today.

In fact, for a giant enterprise such as East Asia Power, if they want to invest in Guanghan City, he may be welcomed as the mayor. After all, such a large enterprise investing on the moon can not only solve the employment problem of the general public, but also improve the current overwhelming energy supply system in Guanghan.

Especially for the latter, to this stage, energy shortage has almost become the biggest obstacle to the further development of the Guanghan Special Economic Zone.

however……

The problem is exactly here.

Bewildered looking at the project book in the holographic window, Mayor Ye muttered to himself.

"But why is it on the moon ..."

Because of the problem of thermal accumulation, the controllable fusion technology has not been popularized on the moon. Even the imcrc's lunar surface collider uses solar power.

The second-generation controllable fusion technology sounds good, but he really doesn't understand that even the first-generation controllable fusion technology can't be popularized on the moon. Why can it be the second-generation fusion technology?

Although he is not an expert in this field, I have heard of it a bit. The reaction conditions of the second-generation fusion technology will be more severe than the first-generation fusion technology, especially the temperature, which is a few hundred million degrees. ten times.

Such high heat, let alone in a vacuum environment, is built in the coastal areas of the atmospheric environment, and it is difficult to diffuse the heat accumulated near the reactor.

Looking at Mayor Ye with a dilemma on his face, the secretary Wang Jin standing next to him suggested.

"My suggestion is, if you are not sure, you might as well consult an expert."

"I think so too. It's better to refer professional questions to professionals for evaluation," Ye He nodded, and said simply, "but who is more appropriate?"

This gadget is a project with tens of billions of investment, and it is even driving industries with a level of 100 billion or even trillions.

If East Asia Power really hopes to solve the energy problem of the Guanghan Special Economic Zone, it will undoubtedly be a great news for Guanghan City, whose development has been stagnating for 30 years.

But if this project ends in the end, or if it becomes a big trouble after it comes out, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for Guanghan City ...

"All the scholars from the Academy of Sciences or the Academy of Engineering who are engaged in research in related fields, as long as we try to choose academicians who have no cooperative relationship with East Asia Power, we should be able to get relatively neutral suggestions."

Maybe that's what they thought. After hearing what the secretary said, Mayor Ye immediately made a decision.

"That's right, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll get in touch with East Asia Power and try to get it done earlier."

...

Pan-Asian Engineering Institute.

Institute of Nuclear Physics.

Academician Qiu Mingrui sitting in the office was sulking at the holographic screen lined with dense lines of text.

About three days ago, he wrote a dissertation, from the perspective of an expert in the field of nuclear engineering, and evaluated the application prospect of that "pulsed magnetic field" in the field of second-generation controlled fusion.

He acknowledged that it was an interesting design idea, but its usefulness must not be on the reactor, but on a large emp weapon.

This kind of dangerous stuff is not only worthless to society, but also brings endless trouble to this society.

And that's why he wrote that thesis from a critical perspective.

Although it is not a reliable channel, but because he has heard some unusual news from his friends, it is because Lu Zhou and the preprinted version of the a1 pulse-type magnetic generation device model released, many military personnel worldwide Background research institutions have already carried out project research on related design and technology.

As for what is studied, I believe that individuals can guess it.

Tyu Mingrui hopes that his paper will attract someone's attention, make him aware of his mistakes, and use his own influence to do something useful to the world.

however……

He was ignored.

And it's still the kind.

Although his paper caused a lot of enthusiasm on the lspm forum, many colleagues who agreed with his views also came out to give him praise or a platform, and even the Pan-Asian Science column also invited him to talk shows. ...

But Lu Zhou himself didn't seem to see it, as if he didn't take his paper at all.

And that made him a little intolerable.

Retrieving research results in related fields can be said to be a daily operation of a scientific researcher. As long as Lu Zhou is engaged in second-generation controllable fusion research, it is impossible to see his paper!

In his opinion, the reason why Lu Zhou did not give an evaluation of his thesis was purely because he did not dare to answer his questions, and selectively ignored the words he had spurred into.

As an academician of the Academy of Engineering, and the top bull in the industry studying nuclear engineering, he never thought he would be treated like this!

"Don't dare to respond to the questioning voice, it is a shame to be a scholar!"

Angrily said, Qiu Mingrui moved his finger on the operation panel and made some simple modifications to the newly published paper in the holographic screen.

This paper is a supplement to his previous one.

And compared with the previous paper, this paper will be more euphemistic in terms of wording and expression. If that Lu Zhou continues to respond with this arrogant attitude, let him continue to be arrogant.

Without saying something, he always felt panicked.

Just then, knocks were heard outside the office.

The movement in his hand paused slightly, Qiu Mingrui glanced in the direction of the doorway, and fluttered without expression.

"Come in."

The door opened.

A doctoral student in his early thirties came in from the outside.

Noting that the look on the instructor's face was not right, the student who had just walked in from outside the door quickly hurled the happy expression on his face and tentatively said.

"Academician Qiu ..."

Qiu Mingrui said sternly.

"what happened?"

Looking at the mentor with a dark cloud on his face, he was afraid that the angry student swallowed, and continued trembling.

"... Guangzhou, the municipal government of Guanghan has sent you an invitation letter."

"Invitation?" Slightly frowned, Qiu Mingrui frowned, and continued to ask, "What invitation?"

He did n’t touch politics at first, and his research topics were not related to the moon. He could n’t think of it. There was any reason to invite himself over Guanghan.

"It seems that it is because East Asia Power intends to select the site for the second-generation fusion reactor ... Guanghan City intends to find an expert for advice on the project. The specific invitation letter was not written, and I am not very clear."

"Site on the moon?"

Qiu Mingrui's angry face had no idea whether he was angry or laughing.

Good guy ...

This is not just a matter of ignoring it, but it is not taking him seriously at all.

Is there anything more absurd than building an experimental reactor on the moon?

"I'll go to Guanghan this time," Qiu Mingrui said firmly from his office chair. "Help me book the latest flight there!"

The student nodded quickly.

"it is good……"

"That's right, and this paper."

I glanced at the basically completed thesis on the holographic screen, thinking that Qiu Mingrui, who could confront Lu Zhou as a qualitative person, would no longer care about such things, so he said casually.

"You check the typography for me, then find a district journal in your industry and publish it. Just write your name, and write my name as the corresponding author."

The student froze slightly, then rejoiced.

"Good teacher!"

Regardless of what his students were thinking at the moment, Qiu Mingrui turned his eyes out of the window, and a sneer opened at the corner of his mouth.

As if this sentence was meant to be heard by someone, he squeezed it out of his teeth.

"I'd like to see."

"This time, can you still pretend that you haven't seen it!"
