Scholar’s Advanced Technological System
Chapter 1015: Did He Really Guess? (1/3)
Just as the Ark had returned to the hotel, Minister Novak was standing in the computer room of the Russian Unified Electricity Company in St. Petersburg, staring silently at the sweaty group of technicians who lived in front of the computer.
Standing next to Minister Novak is the manager of the St. Petersburg branch of Unified Electric, named Olig. The white-haired middle-aged man had a thick beard and a slightly blessed body, and an Armani suit actually felt like a full air balloon.
Beginning two hours ago, he was whispering around.
“Mr. Minister, I can swear to you that our grid has always been in perfect working order and absolutely no problem! Starting this morning, our engineers in the building sector have been waiting in their respective positions to prepare for the electricity at the Helios Fusion Station, yet we have not monitored any changes in voltage from the energy access at the Helios Fusion Station --”
Not at all influenced by this statement, Minister Novak said with a faceless expression.
“I'll personally confirm if there's a problem. ”
“I am deeply sorry for your decision, which is a distrust of our work. ”
“Shut up. ”
“Yes, Mr. Minister.” The expression of impatience had appeared on Minister Novak's face, and Olig quickly shut his mouth after whispering.
In fact, not only did Rosatom and the Russian Ministry of Energy not expect this to happen, but also the Russian Unified Electricity Company, which operates the electricity grid in the European region.
At the time of the acceptance of the project, it was not only East Asian Electric Power that signed the statement of responsibility, but their Unified Electric Power Company personnel also went to the site for inspection, and they approved the request for grid-connected power generation for the Helios project only after approval of the absence of safety issues.
When he heard that the core of the Helios Fusion Station could not start properly, Olig's right eyelid kept dancing, and in the afternoon Minister Novak came to the door with someone.
But he had no idea that Minister Novak suspected that the problem was not with the nuclear power plant, but with the grid system.
This is outrageous!
Time went by, and so far nothing had been checked, and while Olig was wondering if he should remind Minister Novak that he should stop, a technician sitting not far from him suddenly stopped hitting the keyboard and staring at a line of strings on the screen pushing glasses
“… Mr. Manager. ”
Distracted by the sound, Olig immediately looked to him and asked subconsciously.
“What's the matter? ”
The technician swallowed a mouthful of spit and finally stuck to his scalp and said, "Our EMS system seems to be in a slight condition.”
Upon hearing this, Olig instantly realized that he might be too simple to think about, hurriedly stopped the technician's words and pulled him out.
“Wait, come with me first...”
Looking at Olig's intention to take the technician out of the house, Minister Novak immediately called two people.
“Stop! ”
Looking at the two people who stopped, Minister Novak stared at the technician and said seriously.
“What exactly happened? I demand that you report your findings immediately and truthfully! If you have any concealment in your report, you will be responsible for it! ”
As soon as the minister said he was going to take responsibility, the technician suddenly shrugged and ignored the stomach manager next to him and threw him into his eyes, pretending not to see it and say it quickly.
“When we checked the EMS memory, we found several unusual response records. When we received the output request from Helios, the system did not process the request, but gave feedback on the signal to approve the request...”
To put it plainly, it is tantamount to sending a message of large water upstream. The downstream dam receives a message and feeds back information that it is opening the gate and leaking the flood, but in fact it does not open the gate and even records the report of opening the gate in the log.
Vassili frowned: “Is it the system BUG? ”
“A little less like BUG…” the engineer said with a tough tone, "I found that some of the lines of code that had been changed did not look like BUG had been generated, but rather artificially entered. ”
A cold sweat brush came out, Olig Express.
“How is that possible? Are you mistaken?! ”
Thinking that he probably offended the manager anyway, the technician simply gave up the treatment and offended him, pretending that he didn't hear a hint, and said definitely: “I can say more than 90% definitely not! If you don't let our safety director see it again, I'm sure his assumptions are the same as mine. ”
This was not just a cold sweat in front of Oliguet, standing next to Minister Novak, Reverend Sivalli, and officials of the Ministry of Energy, all of whom were soaked with cold sweat.
Operation is man-made!
Someone locked the energy input port from the nuclear power plant from the EMS system!
If the core ignites successfully, the enormous electrical energy generated by nuclear fusion will not only paralyse the entire transmission line, impinging on all connected transformer stations in the vicinity, but will also lead to a series of interlocking disruptions from the magnetic fluid generator set to the core itself, even severe overheating of the core!
Had it not been for Helios' core to proactively trigger the protection mechanism, the reactor would have been forcibly shut down...
Thinking about the ark and the hundreds of millions of degrees of plasma he described, and the fusion reactions that took place inside the core, Minister Novak felt like he had just snuck out of Satan's door for a circle.
He trembled and jumped like a polar bear trampled on his toe, roaring angrily.
“Find out! Who did this to our grid system? And those responsible for the maintenance of the grid system... Shit, are they all shit eaters?! ”
Watching Minister Novak jump like Ray, Olig said with awe.
“Mr. Secretary, maybe it's just a system BUG, we don't have to go through all this...”
“Mr. Olig,” said Minister Novak, staring dead at the fat man standing beside him, "I advise you to cooperate with the investigation, which is the only way to clear your suspicions. ”
When he heard that, Olig couldn't believe his eyes opened and his index finger pointed down at himself.
“Are you doubting me? God, how could I do such a thing! ”
“Doubting who is not my authority, nor can God decide," Minister Novak retracted, staring at the machine room, already busy with his hands and feet, continued with a shadowy face, "is a well-planned and long-standing act of sabotage, even murder! There is no doubt that there have been some traitors in our ranks. ”
“This is no longer an energy issue, but a matter of national security. ”
Looking at Olig, pale, holding his breath, Mother Vassili, and Lemontov, head of the silent Rosatom company, Minister Novak said in a cold tone.
“I will report the matter to the Federal Security Agency, and their people will take over. ”
“I believe the truth will soon come to light. ”
