Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Chapter 555: Everything Is Ready

Outside the STAR-2 demonstration reactor base, a helicopter landed smoothly on the open ground.

Although resistant to such means of transport, it has to be acknowledged that this is the quickest option.

After disembarking from the helicopter, the ship did not have any stops, carrying the laptop bag in its hand, and walked meteorically towards the base.

Through the central site of the base, he went straight to the main building and found the office of Master Wang Zenguang.

The ark standing at the door knocked on the door and pushed the door in.

Looking at the ark that pushed the door in, Academician Wang Zengguang stopped the pen in his hand and smiled and said.

“Yo, you back already? Dean Li Jianxian asked me to tell you that their improved ICRF antenna is ready and basically meets your requirements. ”

“Everything is going well on our side, and it may not even be the end of the year until you can build what you want. ”

“Now the most critical part is the liquid lithium neutron recovery system, can you guys do it? ”

When he said this, Master Wang said it with a smile, just a tone, so that there was no rush.

Because he knew perfectly well that the roads under his feet were so flat that the ark had paved the way for them.

It is no exaggeration to say that from plasma turbulence models to LPC-1 materials, these findings have saved them at least two decades.

So even the most critical liquid lithium neutron recovery system has not progressed much, which is perfectly acceptable.

After all, human energy is limited.

However, the Ark responded unexpectedly.

He took a stack of information from his computer bag and said.

“It's my turn to ask you, the design work is done, and if you can make it, it's up to you. ”

“So soon? ”

Wang Yanston stood up from the chair in surprise, quickly walked around the desk and walked forward, picked up the stack of drawings from the canoe's hand and read them carefully.

Time goes by.

Looking at this drawing in his hand, the expression on the face of Master Wang grew heavier and heavier.

Noticing a change in his expression, the ark struck a debt and asked casually: "Is there a problem? ”

”'No,' said Master Wang.

Let's say...

It's even perfect enough that he can't even offer a little bit of improvement.

The engineering difficulties are also within acceptable limits.

Closed the drawings in his hand, Master Wang looked at the ark and couldn't help but say.

“You're a genius. ”

When I heard that, the ark was embarrassed to laugh.

“It's not my fault alone, and all the researchers at the STAR Institute...”

And, of course, the system.

Even if you don't need points, you can solve these problems.

Relatively, however, it would take a lot of time, and it would not be possible to achieve such perfection step by step.

However, with respect to the modesty of the Ark, the Wang Academician did not seem to buy the bill and waved his hand with a “I know” look.

“Yes, yes, thanks to everyone, I believe. ”

Ark: “…? ”

What do you know now?

……

In mid-November, the weather was slightly cold and the palace's red brick tiles had been stained with white frost.

At this moment, in a sanatorium not far from the palace, the environment is clear, and there is a chessboard under the big willow tree held together by two people.

On this rare sunny day, two old men are sitting opposite each other playing chess.

The red side and the black side killed you coming and going with me, the war situation abnormal scorching.

At this point, however, a sudden turnaround occurred.

“General! ”

With this exciting drink, the red horse kicked off the black elephant, and the car formed a horn, forcing the black side to die in the corner of the palace.

There is no doubt that victory and defeat have come to light.

Watching the board meditate bitterly, the old man suddenly said to himself thoughtfully, “You shouldn't arch this pawn, if you fly this elephant-”

Watching him reach out and touch the board, the old man sitting opposite him immediately stopped the path.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! ”

The old man, whose hand had just touched the chessboard, stunned slightly, then smiled and loosened the pieces, saying.

“The chief designer is right, I lost this chess! ”

Sitting opposite him, it was the former chief architect of the Chinese Lunar Visitation Engineering who served as Changming Academician.

“Been busy lately? ”

Old man: “Busy, not busy, not busy. ”

Ren Changming: “I see you're quite idle and have time to come and play chess with me. ”

The old man shook his head: “The international situation is not optimistic, I'm just busy sneaking around. ”

Ren Changming: “I heard that Jinling is having a controlled nuclear fusion? ”

The old man nodded: "Here it is. ”

Although many of the old experts did not like the project, he felt it was worth a try, whether or not it could be done.

Perhaps this technology could be the key to breaking the situation?

“Controlled nuclear fusion,” speaking of this word, Ren Ming's expression of emotion, “I had discussed this with Mr. Qiao before, we all thought that for up to 20 years, there must be one country between the two countries, and we can quickly catch up. Twenty years went by, and it was almost 20 years before I knew when to look forward to it. ”

Back in the '90s, everyone was habitually restrained, claiming to ignite within 10 years, commercially within 20 years. Watching the dawn of controllable fusion rise, China naturally did not want to lag behind. In 1993, the ICF project quickly came to the horse and was selected for the 863 program. It followed closely the international hotspot to launch a technical attack on inertial constraints, even once forming a "Thousand Man Games" situation.

However, things didn't go as smoothly as imagined. The US NIF failed to ignite, pouring a pot of cold water in the entire direction of inertial restraint. Tokamark, which was not warm enough, began to become popular, and once popular inertial restraint gradually disappeared.

Without laser ignition technology, the input on the route of inertial restraint could not be too granular.

Now all of this is like the cycle of the past.

Although not a nuclear engineer, Ren Changming looked at it all the way.

To be honest, he still has more worrying ingredients in his heart than optimism.

Deep down, of course, he looked forward to a successful conclusion of the project.

“Who's in charge of that ark? ”

Old man: "You know him? ”

“More than knowing,” he heard the name of the ark, the old academician's face appeared a little nostalgic and said, "Probably a few years ago, the kid was still in Jinling for college, so I knew him. ”

“It was an expert interview at the Digital Model Competition. I sat on the jury and asked him what he thought of the prospects for the Moon Climbing Project. He's funny. He's not like the other interviewers. Ask me what I think of the Wall. And I talked about history, about the future, and the head of it. ”

“I knew at first glance that he was a talent, and it was a real loss to drill and study mathematics in Kim Dae's acre, so I went to Kim Dae myself, and wanted to get him to Yan Dae's side to do space, and asked him if he wanted to learn how to build rockets with me, so guess what he told me? ”

The old man asked with a smile, "What do you mean? ”

Ren Changming patted a thigh and said with a smile: "He told me, Ren Professor, I don't want to go to heaven! ”

“Ha-ha-ha...”

The two old men laughed with laughter.

Talking about the past, feeling the haste of the years, Ren Changming couldn't help but be a little confused.

At that time, I was able to run around heaven, south and north, and now even if I wanted to run around, I couldn't walk.

Enough laughter, Ren Changming stopped laughing, quite emotional.

“Later, almost as you can see, this kid is really not easy, although he is not in heaven, he is no different from heaven. ”

Speaking of which, Ren Changming paused for a moment and continued.

“If he doesn't succeed, don't be disappointed. After all, research is not infrastructure, and input and output are not necessarily proportional. I prefer his future to his present. Unlike the old men of us who are going to visit Bridge in no time, his scientific career has just begun and he has a long way to go. ”

Hearing what Mr. Ren said, the old man smiled slightly and said: “Of course I know, you can rest assured. ”

Ren Ming nodded comfortably.

Although not proactive, he should have said those words.

If he didn't say anything, no one would.

At this point, the guards came from the side, reporting to the elderly.

“…, Director Lu is outside. ”

The old man nodded: "Let him in. ”

“Yes!”

A military ceremony was held and the guards turned around and walked outside the courtyard.

Not long after waiting, Director Lu walked in with excitement, following the guards.

After noticing the letter he pinched in his hand, he saw the excited look on his face, and the old man smiled and said, “What excited you? ”

Director Lu was excited: "There's a newspaper coming from Haizhou! The demonstration team project is in its final stages! I have a letter from Professor Lu! ”

The moment I heard this, Ren Nangming's face gave a surprise look.

The chess pieces in his hand fell on the chessboard, and the old man stood up with a beautiful face.

“What did he say in his letter? ”

He took a deep breath and restrained the tone of excitement, Director Lu said in silence.

“The demonstration reactor project has entered the countdown and is expected to start a pilot fire by the end of December! Request Central Approval! ”

When he heard the news, the old man laughed with a big smile and said "yes” three times.

The smile converged, and he was slightly neat, silent and ordered.

“Approve ignition! ”
