Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

STAR-2 demonstration reactor base central.

The construction site is a hot scene.

More than a month has elapsed between the approval of the ignition test in Shanghai and now. From frost to winter solstice, it's time to eat dumplings.

Although the weather is getting colder, it is still not possible to freeze the heat in people's minds.

Having crossed countless difficult obstacles, they have finally come to this point.

Soon they'll know if it's all worth it.

“Connection port checked! Confirm that the interface is working! ”

“Attention all units, start docking! ”

The ICRF heating antenna, about a dozen metres long and about three or four metres wide, was hoisted by steel wire and slowly approached towards a huge reactor under the traction of the lateral arm of the crane.

At the same time, the engineers of the nuclear industry group stood beside them, operating professional equipment and carrying out the installation operations in an orderly manner.

Standing beside the construction site, Master Wang Zengguang, the chief engineer of the nuclear industry group who was personally sitting on the site under the direction of the town, wore a safety cap and a proud smile on his wrinkled old face.

“I used to think that when the nuclear industry group ate up four generations of nuclear fissile heap technology, I should probably retire. ”

Standing next to Academician Wang, Academician Li Jianxian of Luyang Institute of Substances laughed after hearing this sentence.

“Now what? ”

Staring at this giant steel beast in front of him, Master Wang smiled and squeezed the fishtail pattern.

“I'm afraid it's two or three years late. ”

If the fusion ignites...

Someone has to inherit it it.

At least until it's on track, he'll have to keep doing it.

At this point, a middle-aged engineer in a safety hat walked over to two elderly people.

“The ICRF heating antenna is installed! ”

"Has the sealing of the interface been checked? ”

The middle-aged engineer nodded and responded sternly: "I've checked it three times! Confirm that there are no issues. ”

The seriousness of his face eased, and Academician Li nodded in praise of the place, turning to his old friend next to him, smiling and tweeting: “Our mission at Luyang Institute of Substances is a satisfactory one, now it is up to you. I said," O old king, let's not lose the chain on this knotted eye. "It would be embarrassing if your magnetic fluid generator didn't get a call by then. ”

When he heard this, the monk laughed and scolded.

“Oh, you old thing's worried about me. Rest assured, try to ignite the fire. If you lose the chain on the generator unit, I will write the name of Wang Zengguang backwards! ”

As he said, he appeared to be looking not far away at the construction site and ordered the middle-aged engineer in front of him.

“Start installing Magnetic Fluid Generator Sets! ”

“Yes!”

The middle-aged engineer took a solemn place and immediately fled towards the construction site.

……

Whoo--!

With a deafening roar, two fighter jets roared over the rolls.

These voices have often been heard here in recent times.

Standing by the office's landing window, the ark retrieved its sight from the sea not far away and looked at the time on the watch.

In 30 minutes, there is another meeting waiting for him to preside.

He has not been idle since the study was temporarily closed.

Rather, it was probably the most tiring month since the demonstration reactor project began.

More than a hundred institutes are involved in issues related to the STAR-2 installation, and dozens of institutions are directly or indirectly involved in the construction of demonstration reactor assemblies, as well as specific construction.

In order to coordinate the work of the various departments, the most important thing he had done in the past month had been to meet. Almost every day there are more than three conferences or meetings to be held and at least ten reports to be seen in person.

It was no fun for him to stay in the lab and study interesting questions alone.

But these days are coming to an end.

All components of the STAR-2 demonstration reactor have been completed.

Not surprisingly, at the forthcoming meeting, the chief engineer of the Nuclear Industry Group, Master Wang, will report to him on the installation of the ICRF antenna and all magnetic fluid generator units.

This is the last two puzzles.

After completing the installation of these two demonstration reactor assemblies and finally checking the linkage status of the various component interfaces, the ignition experiment can basically begin.

Thinking about it, the corner of the ark's mouth can't help but make a smile.

This day, he finally looked forward to it.

At this point, there was a knock outside.

The sight retracted from the landing window and the ark looked towards the door.

“Come on in. ”

The door pushed open, carrying an insulation box, Yan Yeon in a dark blue coat walked in.

“You didn't eat, did you? ”

When I heard that, the Ark laughed and said, "I don't have much appetite for lunch. I've been used to eating two meals in the morning and two in the evening. ”

Yan Yeon sighed softly and placed the heat box gently on the coffee table: “I know you're busy, but you still have to eat three meals a day on time. There's dumplings wrapped in the cafeteria, I brought you one. ”

The rice was delivered to his mouth, and the ark was not a man of love, and he said thank you from the grace, and then went to sit on the couch next to the coffee table and opened the insulation box.

The luscious noodle flavor comes along and the crystal clear dumpling looks like a thrill to my fingers.

Drink the mouth soup, feel the warmth in your stomach, and the eyes of the ark shine slightly.

Well, it smells good.

I couldn't help but sigh, and the ark picked up the chopsticks.

“Are your troops eating so well? ”

Sitting on the sofa opposite him, Yeon replied, "Look which army it is. ”

“Really?”

Nor did the Ark continue to follow the topic, but instead concentrated on enjoying this delicious lunch.

Regular diets must be healthy, but he doesn't need to be reminded at all, and he knows it himself.

But sometimes it's clear that people have no appetite when they're busy. When God comes back, it's past dinner time, so just wait for the next meal to eat together.

Enjoying dumplings in a thermos box, at this moment, the ark suddenly came up with something.

“It's winter solstice, by the way. ”

Sitting opposite the couch, he watched Yan Yeon eat and nodded. “Yes. ”

No wonder it's dumplings...

Ark laughed and if it wasn't for this dumpling, he didn't even notice today was a special day.

But by the way, it's already winter.

Time passes so fast...

Just as his heart was emotional, the footsteps came from outside the corridor, and not too many times, the familiar face appeared at the door with a magnificent voice.

“The door wasn't closed, so I came in. I didn't bother Professor Lu to eat. ”

“How could I disturb you,” the ark laughed, dropping the chopsticks, "I was just finished. ”

He looked at Yan Yeon.

“The thermos box is bothering you. ”

Yan Yeon shook his head: “No trouble, go ahead. ”

She got up from the couch, took the insulation box from the coffee table, turned away from the office, and closed the door for the two people in the office.

Sitting across from the ark, Captain Dai cleared his voice and said in a slight tone.

“It's almost the end of December. Have you set a specific date for the ignition? ”

The ark thought about it and replied.

“The exact date is yet to be determined, and we will not discuss it until we reach a meeting. But one day or another, it won't be until next year. ”

“Okay, I'll see you later in the evening," Dai Nodded, “but my suggestion is to let us know as much as three days in advance if the ignition time is determined. We can also get the provincial side to work with us, arrange transportation around the area on the day of the ignition, and work safely. ”

“Thank you,” the Ark nodded, suddenly thinking of something at this point, "Speaking, it's New Year's Day in a few days. ”

Captain Dai nodded: "Yes, what's wrong? ”

“Well, it's better to choose the day than to crash into the sun," the Ark laughed and said, "just use the controllable fusion ignition and offer a congratulatory gift to the people of the country who are waiting for you! ”
