Chapter 420: Great Power Heavy Industry
While the two were talking and laughing, the convoy of the joint delegation from ITER had already driven into the "controlled nuclear fusion base" in Qingdao.
After all, it has taken less than a month from the establishment of the project to the decision, and the hasty approval of the project can be said to be rare in the world, so the project can only be "boarded" in a university at present.
However, under the national policy and a large amount of money, the real power station base has been in full swing construction, with the construction speed of China's infrastructure madness, it is believed that it will take less than two months to build the basic office area and living area.
FOR QINGDAO UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, ALTHOUGH THESE PEOPLE OCCUPY A LOT OF LIFE EDUCATION EXPERIMENTAL RESOURCES, THE ENTIRE SCHOOL, FROM THE PRINCIPAL SHUJI TO THE ORDINARY STUDENTS, IS AS HAPPY AS A MEAL.
After all, there is a national financial subsidy, especially if you can "attract" an explosives award like Professor Liu to become an honorary professor of this university, and looking at universities all over the world, only Beijing University of Science and Technology can make Professor Liu an honorary professor, right?
This time, some of them blew it.
What's more, there will be the world's most famous controlled nuclear fusion physicists who will "settle" here for a long time, especially the winners of the Clapper Medal and the Dynamite Medal, if they can "stay" a few more, even if they can only serve as honorary professors of the school like Professor Liu, for them Qingdao University of Science and Technology, it will also be famous.
Don't look at it as just a little fame, but for Kiyoshima University of Science and Technology, it is quite important, especially when they are not yet 211 and 985.
Even at the beginning, when it was rumored that the country would requisition the local university in Cheongdo as a foothold for the international team of experts who studied controlled nuclear fusion, the nine local universities in Cheongdo even "fought hard" because of this, and everyone wanted to strive to become the place where the experts settled this time, and everyone wanted to improve the reputation of the school.
But why Qingdao University of Science and Technology won the final victory, it is necessary to ask our Professor Liu how he drew lots in the first place.
……
After all, Huaguo is a country of etiquette, and out of polite considerations, as the host and the representative of Huaguo's scientific community, Liu Feng still stood up to greet these "international friends" in person.
Standing out of the convoy, at the head of the group was the deputy director of the International Thermonuclear Fusion Reactor Program, Stilford Ralph, who was the younger-looking Germanic engineer in the car earlier.
I saw that under the leadership of the person in charge of the Chinese side, he greeted the representatives of the Chinese country who were lined up to welcome him, and stretched out his calloused right hand to Liu Feng.
"Hello, Professor Liu, I'm Stanford Ralph from the Helmholtz Center for Materials and Energy in Berlin, Rotating Vice-Chair of the ITER Project, next to my colleague Rupert Elvis. ”
"Liu Feng," shook hands vigorously with the Germanic engineer, Liu Feng looked at him with some surprise, nodded and said, "You can speak Chinese." ”
"More than 10 years ago, I had the privilege of working here in China. The middle-aged man, who looked obviously different from the serious and cautious style of the traditional Germanic people, grinned and said in a humorous tone, "Although I haven't used it for more than 10 years, my memory seems to be pretty good." ”
"Yes, in my opinion, you are quite standard," the guy in front of him who can speak Chinese is really like a spring breeze, so Liu Feng smiled friendlyly, let go of his hand, and continued to introduce the person next to him, "This is Professor Li Zhengwu, director of the plasma laboratory of the Hefei Institute of Physical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the leader of the fully superconducting tokamak." ”
"Mr. Ralph, I've admired my name for a long time. Holding Stanford Ralph's right hand and shaking it, Academician Li Zhengwu smiled uncontrollably, "Welcome!"
"Long admiration, long admiration!" Ralph didn't mind Academician Li's expression at all, holding Academician Li's right hand with his right hand, and even his left hand came up, and his posture couldn't help but carry a little humility and respect for the person in front of him,
"The famous EAST, the founder of the Oriental Super Ring, Professor Li, you have long been thunderous in ITER, and we are really fortunate to be able to meet the real person today. ”
Whether it is thunderous or lucky, Academician Li Zhengwu is indeed known to everyone in the ITER organization.
Especially when the old gentleman made the all-superconducting tokamak (EAST) oriental superring and became the world's first tokamak nuclear fusion experimental device with a steady-state high-confinement mode operation duration of the order of minutes, the people on the ITER side gritted their teeth in addition to being shocked.
ITER, which is famous and brings together the world's most famous controlled nuclear fusion research center, was surpassed by a wild Chinese scientist in the tokamak, which is a great shame for those in ITER who claim to represent the top of the human intelligence world, and for Academician Li Zhengwu, who created all this, how can they not be shocked, how can they not gnash their teeth?
Looking at the personable Germanic engineer in front of him, especially this representative of ITER, who is different from the legendary group of people who have always been arrogant to Huaguo, but has a lot of respect for himself, Li Zhengwu also has a good impression of him.
ITER didn't send the Reginor chair, and it seems that it was carefully considered, after all, no one hates someone like Ralph.
Nodding, the old gentleman's guard let go a little, and after letting go of his hand, he said gently: "We have arranged a place for you to stay, the conditions may not be very good, I hope you can forgive me, please here." ”
As for where to live, Ralph had already known in advance, and they didn't have much to ask for it.
"Professor Li, we can go to the place where we settle down in a while, can you take us to the factory first?"
Li Zhengwu was slightly stunned.
According to the schedule, after the arrival of these people today, a reception banquet was arranged, followed by a visit to a heavy machinery factory that produces the main structural framework of the reactor on Qingdao, but because these people's trips were delayed by a few hours, they were happy to postpone the schedule, but they didn't expect these people to delay their work at all, and they had a firm grasp of the concept of time, so they subconsciously glanced at a person in charge who led these people and Liu Feng beside him.
Seeing that the person in charge and Liu Feng both nodded, Li Zhengwu nodded and said happily: "Of course there is no problem." ”
The ITER delegation was quite large, with a total of 283 people, and all of them were top experts in the direction of controlled nuclear fusion.
"With the character of the M people, they would agree to this Stanford Ralph as the leader of the team? You know, this time, there are several veteran dynamite award winners. ”
Hearing Liu Feng's question, the person in charge shook his head innocently and said:
"This time, the attitude of the people of country M is really low, and they don't even contact us alone. ”
"It seems that this time the people of country M have a big plan!" Liu Feng also nodded helplessly, the dog that bites people does not bark, and the people of country M are uncharacteristically not so public, it is conceivable that when they do not get the ideal harvest, they will definitely make up their minds to pretend to be grandchildren.
In this regard, while Liu Feng was vigilant, he was also a little comfortable in his heart.
came to our territory, even the dragon has to be held for us, and the tiger has to lie down for Lao Tzu!
It's just that he didn't take that Stafford Ralph lightly, after all, sometimes the smiling tiger is the most alarming.
At least, it can be seen from the attitude of the "monkey rush" this time.
"That's right, Professor Liu," the person in charge nodded approvingly, and slapped Liu Feng on the back by the way, "It's just that with Professor Liu's arrangement, I'm afraid that no matter how much the people of Country M toss, they won't be able to get much benefit." ”
Smiling, Liu Feng didn't say anything more.
Not far from Qingdao University of Science and Technology, in the high-tech industrial park planned by the municipal government, there is a famous Huaguo heavy machinery factory - 32 Heavy Industry, a branch of the factory.
Although it is only a branch factory, the strength of the family is quite strong.
After all, the entire framework of the Shanhaiguan controllable nuclear fusion demonstration reactor is produced here, and even the reactor of the Qingdao nuclear power plant this time, as well as other reactors that are still under planning, the main structure is still provided by this branch plant, and even more so, most of the components of the reactor, such as the anti-radiation shell and the room temperature superconducting coil, are assembled here.
There is really no one who can get orders for these things except for their 32 Heavy Industry Branch.
At this moment, in the center of the spacious factory, a large oval-shaped equipment is placed.
From the outside, the appearance of this device is still somewhat eccentric, or simple, and even seems to be the product of a patchwork, without the slightest sense of technological beauty.
If someone hadn't introduced it, I'm afraid no one would have thought that this tattered thing would actually be the main frame of a controlled nuclear fusion reactor, let alone that between those unsealed metal layers, a circle of brass-colored wires as thick as an arm is a room temperature superconducting material that is finally heavier than gold and enough to change the world!
Of course, the price is more important than gold, and that's just for now.
The new production process and equipment have been completed, and in a factory in the high-tech park, it will be able to produce on a large scale immediately, and the cost, with the gradual increase in output, will naturally be lower and lower, otherwise, how can the high-level put forward a huge plan to build a room temperature superconducting transmission network in the next 15~20 years to replace the old UHV transmission line?
It's just that what is puzzling is that although this huge thing looks a little tattered, at least most of the frame has been completed, and it seems that it will definitely not be built to this point in just one month!
At this moment, a young engineer outside the workshop hurriedly walked in, shouting loudly as he walked:
"Here they come, here they come!"
Noticing the excited expression on this guy's face, several engineers who were installing parts in the factory were stunned, and subconsciously said, "Why are you so excited? Who is here, is it the Great Elder?"
Wiping the sweat from his face, the young engineer explained:
"Can you not be excited? The person who came here was Liu Feng! Moreover, there were more than 200 foreign experts who came together, and there were at least three winners of the Dynamite Award and five winners of the Clover Award! All of them are world-renowned physics bigwigs!"
"What?Liu Feng!", "And more than 200 foreign experts?", "Are they all well-known physics bosses?"
"Or else?"
"I'm so good! Liu Feng came to our factory for research, and there are so many foreign experts, I'm afraid this has to be broadcast on tonight's news, right? Is there a reporter coming along?"
"Not only our domestic reporters, but I also see a lot of blonde and blue-eyed foreign journalists, so not only the news broadcast, but also the news from all over the world have to take turns!"
The more the engineers talked, the more excited they became, and they involuntarily stopped what they were doing and looked up at the gate.
Originally, according to the confidential nature of the work they are engaged in, it is very likely that they will not be in the news for the rest of their lives, but who would have thought that such a thing would happen?
After a few words, the technical director of the factory led a group of people over, and several engineers stopped talking.
At the same time, under the leadership of Chief Engineer Jiang, the experts walked to the oval equipment in the center of the plant, and the workshop, which accommodated nearly 300 people and large equipment with a diameter of more than ten meters, did not seem crowded at all.
Finally seeing the legendary epic device capable of achieving stable and controllable nuclear fusion, a group of foreign experts looked up and down this device with a hint of admiration and contempt and suspicion from the bottom of their hearts.
Judging from the appearance alone, these people really can't believe that this broken equipment can achieve stable and controllable nuclear fusion?
What's more, since the establishment of the Cheongdo nuclear fusion project, it has been possible to build the reactor to such an extent in less than a month?
It's a fool!
An expert from the Three Kingdoms stood up and said suspiciously: "Professor Liu, shouldn't you Huaguo not want to share your technology and specially come up with such a thing to fool us?"
Looking at this expert from the Three Kingdoms with a suspicious expression on his face, Liu Feng smiled and asked in a relaxed tone, "Professor Ramanjama Sen, why did you say this?"
The corners of Rama Nujama Sen's mouth twitched: "Professor Liu, our Three Kingdoms are the same as the Great Y Empire, we are all in the first place and the last in the back, you call us Three Kingdoms a little disrespectful, so call me Professor Sen in the future." ”
"I'm sorry, Professor Sen," Liu Feng smiled embarrassedly, "I don't know much about Ah Sanguo, if there is anything that offends you, please forgive me." But why do you say we're fooling you?"
"Isn't it?"
Ramanujama Sen's eyes wandered around him a few times, and found that many people had the same questions as him, so he said righteously,
"Although we all know that Huaguo's industrial strength is indeed very strong, especially in terms of production speed and imitation, however, the equipment in front of us, if I am not mistaken, must have a diameter of at least 10 meters, right? How can such a huge device be built to such a point in just one month?!"
