Hui Province, Institute of Plasma Physics.
In the office, Li Jian is carefully looking at the research materials and papers, looking for breakthroughs.
He is an academician of the Academy of Engineering, former director of the Institute of Plasma, deputy general manager of the superconducting tokamak device, and the person in charge of the tokamak experiment.
In the last controlled nuclear fusion experiment, the steady-state operation of the fusion reaction exceeded the hundred-second mark. Their next task is to maintain the steady-state operation of the fusion reaction for a longer period of time.
The current tokamak is only an experimental device. Although the net output of total energy is within the scope of consideration, the main technology currently being tackled is to maintain the steady-state operation time of the fusion reaction.
After the fusion reaction can proceed stably, the next major issue to tackle is the net output of total energy.
In the field of nuclear fusion, it will always take 25 years before the technology is ready for practical application. What lies before them is this difficult problem.
Sometimes with a moment of inspiration, maybe next month, the technology can be successfully solved. If technology cannot break through, it will not succeed even if it takes a few more 25 years.
In the next experiment, if they want to exceed the current record, they will need continuous innovation in technology. They have privately modeled and simulated many tests. Without new technological innovations, they may not be able to make any better breakthroughs in a short period of time.
Ding ding ding…
While Li Jian was thinking about possible technological breakthrough directions, the doorbell interrupted his thoughts.
"Academician Li, the director asked me to inform you to go to his office because there is something urgent."
"Is it urgent?" Li Jian frowned, put the information in his hand into the safe, and walked out of the office: "Is there anything urgent?"
"I don't know. The director asked for notification, and Teacher Wan was also notified. It seems to be quite urgent." said the staff member who came to notify.
"Okay." Li Jian nodded and left the office.
Except at the beginning of the tokamak experiment, at other times, there were rarely emergencies that required the director to find him and Wan Yuanxi at the same time.
Both of them are leaders in experimental research, and time is very precious. But there is still some time before the next test starts. What is the urgency this time
When Li Jian arrived at the office of the director of the Plasma Institute, he saw three people in the office.
In addition to director Wang Nian and his colleague Wan Yuanxi, there is another person he does not know. Judging from his appearance, he is undoubtedly a soldier.
Li Jian greeted Wan Yuanxi and Wang Nian with doubts.
"Let me introduce, this is Comrade Li Chengzhi. Comrade Li Chengzhi came over from the capital overnight. He needs our help with important matters. The superiors asked our office to fully cooperate with Comrade Li." Wang Nian introduced: "Comrade Li, this is Academician Li Jian, the leader of the Tokamak experiment.”
"Hello, Academician Li." Li Chengzhi stretched out his hand and shook Li Jian's hand: "Academician Li and Academician Wan are here, and I won't waste your time. This matter is very important and special. You need to verify a piece of information. .”
The three people on the field looked at each other.
"What information?" The gray-haired Wan Yuanxi asked.
He is an academician of the Institute of Plasma Physics, one of the most senior researchers, and the leader of one of the research teams. Many of the team members are his students.
At this time, he was a little confused. What important data needed to gather three of their top experts
Li Chengzhi did not answer. Instead, he took out three pieces of information from the portable safe he brought and handed them to the three people present: "This is the information. Take a look at it and give me an accurate answer."
The three of them were all attracted by the information in their hands. When their eyes fell on the information, their expressions slowly became serious, became more and more dignified, and finally their expressions changed drastically.
"This, this, this...where did you get this information?"
Wan Yuanxi suddenly stood up from his position and looked at Li Chengzhi with a shocked face, and the hand holding the information was trembling.
He has been engaged in research on high-temperature plasma physics and nuclear fusion for decades. He is the oldest researcher in the Institute of Plasma and is already familiar with the theory of nuclear fusion.
This is the simulation experimental data of controlled nuclear fusion technology.
He is very familiar with some of the above principles and formulas, and he will never be able to deceive anyone.
Information on controlled fusion technology is strictly confidential in the institute, and the keys are kept by many people, and even one of them cannot retrieve them alone.
But now that information appeared in Li Chengzhi's hands, he had to panic. If the technology is leaked, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Comrade Li, how did you get this information? Wasn't the information in the institute leaked?" Wang Nian was also very shocked at this moment.
"You guys calm down first." Li Chengzhi looked at the three people who were a little embarrassed and said: "The information does not belong to your institute. The specific source is confidential now."
Hearing Li Chengzhi's answer, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. If the technology was leaked, they would be in big trouble.
Li Chengzhi saw the shocked looks of the three people on the court and was sure that Chen Mo probably didn't lie to him: "Please take a careful look at the information and give me an answer."
"The information is somewhat different." Li Jian, who was relatively calm, said, "There are new formulas in this information, and the theory is also somewhat different from our existing nuclear fusion theory."
Wang Nian and Wan Yuanxi subconsciously looked through the information in their hands carefully. Sure enough, there was a formula they had never seen before, and there was more than one formula.
"These formulas? These theories? It turns out that it can be explained this way."
The two people's expressions became serious. They didn't look carefully just now, but now after looking carefully, they realized the difference.
"You three, now is not the time for research." Li Chengzhi looked at the three people who were deep in thought and smiled bitterly: "Can you verify the authenticity of this information? And the results of the data?"
"The data is incomplete, and there are new formulas. The theory is also somewhat different from what we studied, so we need to recalculate and reason."
The more Li Jian looked at it, the more solemn he became. Because of this information, new technology has emerged, which is likely to provide new ideas and breakthroughs for the study of nuclear fusion reactions and speed up the research on fusion technology.
"If we have complete data, can we be sure?" Li Chengzhi asked.
"You can try it." Li Jian nodded seriously.
Li Chengzhi took out the hard drive Chen Mo gave him from the portable safe and put it on his desk: "The complete data is in this hard drive."
…
Chen Mo knew nothing about Li Chengzhi's overnight flight to the Institute of Plasma Physics in Hui Province to verify the technology. He got up early to wash up, and after breakfast, he took Lan Xi and Wang Hai out of the hotel where they were staying.
Today is the last day of the Artificial Intelligence Conference, but he has nothing to do.
The information on nuclear fusion has been handed over to Li Chengzhi. He doesn't know when the higher-ups will give an answer or when someone will be sent to discuss it. He can only wait now.
If it doesn't work, you can go back to the company first.
He believed that someone from above would come looking for him soon. After all, nuclear fusion technology was related to the transformation of energy. He did not believe that the above would be indifferent.
"Boss, where are we going?" Wang Hai asked after getting in the car.
"Financial Street Mall."
