Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

“Sneeze...! ”

Rosenyuan: “What's wrong? ”

“Nothing...”

Is the air conditioning temperature a little lower, the blower is cool...

Sucked his nose and Zhou Shengfu mumbled so much in his heart.

At this moment, sitting on a return plane, he did not know that he had been missed by someone.

Around a dozen hours ago, he and Deputy Director Luo, who are sitting opposite him at this moment, as well as several other experts from the International Centre for the Implementation of Nuclear Fusion Energy Programmes in China and representatives accredited by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, have just participated in an informal closed meeting of ITER in Saint Paule Durrants, France.

The final outcome of the meeting was not optimistic.

However, compared to the attitude of the representative of the United States, he was now more concerned about the domestic situation.

“Director Luo. ”

“Hmm?”

With a few quizzes, Zhou Shengfu asked: "What does this mean now? ”

Rosenyuan was still very respectful to the academician-grade domestic controllable fusion expert, after hearing the question, explained.

“There is now little hope for ITER at the top, and there is a risk of exclusion even if we disclose this part of the technology, given the good faith that Europeans and Americans are currently demonstrating. Prior to our arrival, we were approached by a handful from the Ministry to highlight how long we could be delayed, and that we must not let loose touch on technical issues. Either let them trade their technology for it, or they don't talk about it. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Shengfu's heart sighed.

Surely, the thing that worried him most happened.

He could not help but say that watching his own heart and soul for more than a decade would be ruined once he knew that the opinions of experts such as himself would mostly be of little use once decisions had been taken at the senior level.

“So we just pulled out of ITER? In order to be included, we paid such a great price..."

Rosenyuan shook his head: “What else? If we don't stop the damage in time, our losses will only be greater. ”

Speaking of which, Director Rowe paused for a moment.

“And while it may not be appropriate for me to say this, withdrawing from ITER may not be a bad thing. At least we can invest money in domestic fusion projects for Europeans. ”

“Besides, Professor Lu promises to be able to complete the demonstration heap by 2025… If he succeeds, we may not necessarily be passive or even have the initiative in our hands. ”

Another ark...

Hearing the name, Zhou Shengfu's eyebrows twitched violently.

“What if the boy is a bullshitter--”

Though I would love to say this.

But Zhou Shengfu finally didn't say it, he just held it in his heart.

After all, although he can't swallow this breath, he's not stupid...

……

According to Murphy's theorem, the more worried things are, the more likely they are to happen.

Although ITER Chinese representatives are buying as much time as possible, things will eventually come.

Last day of August.

The first “victim” appeared.

Before seeking the cooperation of its allies, the United States intends to unilaterally exert a little pressure on the Chinese nation.

Perhaps it's because it's too high-profile, grabbing the headlines year after year, the Luyang Materials Institute, which had nothing to do with the STAR Device Institute, was just lying there innocently.

Dragging the suitcase, Xiaole, dressed as a dusty servant, stood at the doorstep of his house in a sophisticated manner.

Three days ago, he also studied at General Atomic Energy's DIII-D laboratory, originally intended to be back for the year.

As a result, it was unexpected that a document signed by the President himself had returned them all to the country.

Professor Lee, who leads the team, gave them a week off to wait at home for news. The head of the General Atomic Energy Corporation said he would address the Ministry of Energy and the district court on this matter. After all, General Atomic Energy Corporation does not want to lose the Golden Master, but I'm afraid it doesn't make much sense...

Anyway, let's take a break and go back to Luyang later.

Ring the doorbell and keep the door open.

Looking at his son standing at the door, Shoji flashed.

“Didn't you come back for New Year's? Why are you back now? ”

“What, my son's back?” Mum's voice came from far away in the living room, looking at the son at the door, Wang Lixi frowned and walked forward, one took the suitcase from his hand, "come in and rest. Really, you son of a bitch came all the way back and didn't know to call ahead. Let your father buy two elbows later, and Mom will burn you red. ”

Shawler smiled somewhat reluctantly: "… It was a bit sudden that all our communications equipment was taken away and returned to us before boarding the plane. ”

Later, he couldn't care less about the phone calls.

Shoji frowned. "Did you take it away? What's going on? ”

“Possibly… and recent trade... Easy Warfare has something to do with it, I don't know,” Shawler shook his head, sat on the couch, picked up a cup and drank his saliva, "and the morning before yesterday, we were going to a seminar on plasma physics, where the professor responsible for hosting us suddenly informed us that the seminar had been temporarily cancelled. Then when we got back to the hotel, a few people who claimed to be FBI agents confiscated our communications equipment and searched our rooms..."

Wang Li's face was astonished: “... you didn't meet the robber, did you? ”

Shawler shook his head: "No... they have a warrant from the district court, probably not a fake one? ”

It doesn't matter if it's fake or not.

After retrieving his cell phone, he discovered that all the photos in the photo album had been deleted from the General Atomic Energy Corporation doorway. But the original photos he was just using to send circles of friends didn't cost much.

Wang Li: “This is too scary... I think you'd better not go next time I'm going to study outside the house. ”

Shawler shook his head: "Anything else, my visa was canceled! ”

This wave of repatriation, it is estimated that all of them will have to be blacklisted, not to mention to go to school, for fear that normal travel will be affected.

To be honest, he's still a bit of a dickhead, and I don't know what's wrong with these Americans.

At least in his view, controlled nuclear fusion also sees a shadow, and it's hard to say if this is another 50 years, and all of a sudden these fusion reactors, like the fission reactors, have become sensitive technologies.

Maliciously speculating, he even suspected that it was just some hawkish president trying to show his toughness towards China.

After all, it's almost 2020, and there seems to be another general election.

Hearing about the injustice suffered by his son, Shoji filled his face with anger and indignation.

“Oh, if I don't go, I won't believe it. Can't the planet turn without them? Wasn't the atomic bomb the same as the satellite? ”

Xiaole shook his head: "Okay, I'm telling you, you don't understand either. ”

A lot of people don't know, and of course news never does. The EAST devices on Science Island are not in fact independently designed by domestic research institutes, but mainly refer to the DIII-D Tokamak devices of the General Atomic Energy Corporation of the United States.

At the end of the day, there's still a difference between research and planting, and it's not like someone else gave you the seeds and the hoes, so you can plant them yourself.

As an unfinished technology, especially large scientific research projects involving many disciplines such as controllable fusion, it is much more crucial than what has been done to plan for the next step.

And now their cooperation with the General Atomic Energy Corporation has been suspended.

The EAST device is certainly still working, but how to study it later...

We can only do this on our own.

Of course, Shaw is not without confidence.

Learning itself is part of scientific research, it is important to recognize your shortcomings, but there is no need to be paranoid. And in fact, their EAST devices have made considerable innovations. For example, the all-super-conductive D-section technology was the first of its kind in the Luyang Institute of Substances.

However, as opposed to win-win cooperation, we will have to fight alone from now on.

This left him somewhat worried about the future of the domestic controllable fusion business…

Xiao Zhiping: “I don't know what you're learning, but you Luyang Materials Research Institute, are you the leader of our domestic controllable fusion research? Come on, man, give me a break and let the Americans come over and beg us to go back. We're not going to be hard! ”

Hearing Dad's encouragement, Shawler shook his head and buried his head to continue eating.

Easy to say, it's not that easy.

Besides, they're not the leaders now.

Now that ITER is ready to turn to star mimicry, Americans and Europeans don't want to take us on anymore. The domestic CFTER is an unknown number.

I don't know, the country now intends to do its best to emulate the star weapon.

Like STAR-2?

After all, that light at the foot of Purple Gold Mountain blinded the eyes of the whole world...
