Chapter 350: High-Level Meeting (25/38)

"Qin Feng, now that the members of the Council of Elders have arrived, you can tell everyone about it!" In the conference room in Haizili, the nine elders in charge of the political situation of Huaguo sat at the conference table, and the great elder looked at Qin Feng at the end of the conference table and said.

"Leaders, first of all, I want to make a review here! In the previous stage, I violated the organizational principles and did not carry out my work in accordance with the normal organizational procedures, although I did not cause any regrets, but this kind of behavior is not worthy of appreciation!" Then Qin Feng told him about his contact with Lu Qiujian when he went to Germany for a foreign visit, and the problem he said violated the organizational principles was actually to arrange for Wang Yang to contact Lu Qiujian.

It stands to reason that the transmission of this kind of confidential documents should be completed by professionals, and it is easy for people like Wang Yang to operate this kind of thing without professional training, but fortunately, Wang Yang did not cause losses.

"Well, if this happens in the future, a professional must be arranged to contact you!" the Great Elder nodded after hearing this, "You can go on!"

"Actually, I didn't realize the weight of these two materials at the beginning, because according to the professors I found out about Jiangnan University, these experts told me that controlled nuclear fusion will take at least 50 years before it is put into practical use!

"However, in the two experimental tests conducted by the Ministry of Science and Technology, these two materials have shown extremely strong practicability! And they are far beyond the current international frontier level! This makes me have to be cautious!" Speaking of this, Qin Feng took a deep breath, "According to my previous contact with Dr. Lu Qiujian, his research results in this field are far more than these two materials! If his research results in other aspects can reach the level of these two materials, then it may take less than 50 years for controlled nuclear fusion to be put into application!"

"In 2004, China's oil imports rose sharply despite the fact that international oil prices hit a record high. Crude oil imports exceeded 1. 200 million tons, an increase of 34. 8%; For the first time, the import volume of refined oil exceeded 37 million tons, an increase of 34%. 1%; Net imports of crude oil and refined products reached a record 1. 43.7 billion tons. Combined with net imports of LPG and other petroleum products, the total net import of oil is as high as 1. 51.5 billion tons, a year-on-year increase of 43%, the dependence on oil imports has approached 50%, and the total oil import volume is as high as 431. 500 million US dollars, an increase of 112% year-on-year. 56%。 The Prime Minister couldn't help but interject when he heard this.

"Our GDP last year was less than $2 trillion. The funds spent on oil imports alone account for more than 2 percent of the total GDP!" The prime minister looked worried, "Because of the bottleneck of energy, China has no choice but to make many concessions in international exchanges! Moreover, it is foreseeable that with the growth rate of China's economic development, the energy problem will become more and more serious, and if controlled nuclear fusion can really be realized, then it will be of great benefit to China's rise!"

"However, can this plan really be successfully completed?" Of course, some people questioned, "From the current point of view, there is still a big gap between China's scientific and technological development level and that of the United States and Europe, and I don't seem to have heard of a breakthrough in the field of controlled nuclear fusion." ”

"And which Dr. Lu I met last year!" said an elder who had attended the Huaguo Science and Technology Commendation Conference, "He seems to be in his early twenties, right? Isn't it safe to put all your hopes in a young man in his twenties?

"Although Dr. Lu is young, he has already shown convincing strength in the scientific community!" Since the plan was proposed by Qin Feng, the work of interpretation can only be entrusted to him, "In the mathematical community, he has cracked the Poincaré conjecture, and it is only a matter of time before he wins the Fields Medal, the highest award in mathematics. ”

"And just a few days ago, he used CERN's Large Hadron Collider to discover dark matter, and quickly became a favorite for the Nobel Prize!" Qin Feng paused, waiting for them to absorb this information before saying. "The previous two documents have proved that he also has a very mature idea in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, and the previous two experiments have been very successful. I think that if we invest in him, China will never lose money!"

This year's class of elder engineers came from a lot of backgrounds, and they quickly found the problem, "Whether it is the Poincaré conjecture or dark matter, it is the research in the basic field, while the controlled nuclear fusion is the research in the application field, and the difference between the two fields is a bit big! Even if Dr. Lu has proved his strength in the basic field." It does not mean that he will have the same results in the field of application. ”

Perhaps thinking that what he said was a bit absolute, he added, "Of course, a scientist like Dr. Lu is a treasure of the whole nation! When he returns to China, we can invest some funds to support him first, and then add more when we have the results!"

"I'm afraid this is not appropriate!" During this time, Qin Feng has put a lot of effort into the field of controlled nuclear fusion. I also have a general impression of the financial and manpower and material support needed by Lu Qiujian, "The field of controlled nuclear fusion is very money-burning, and it is meaningless if the investment is less!"

"Although the economy has been good in the past two years, there are still a lot of places to spend money!" The prime minister also frowned, "Infrastructure, national defense spending, personnel spending, and so on have almost completely consumed part of the economic growth! Although I don't know much about how much the plan mentioned in Qin Feng's notice will cost, it must not be too little, and it is still difficult to meet this part of the suddenly extra budget!"

The meeting lasted for several hours, during which domestic experts in the field were also called in for consultation, but they were never able to form a unified opinion; it is also a matter of course, once the plan is implemented, it will be at least 10 billion yuan of consumption, how can it be so easy to make a decision.

"Okay, that's all for today's meeting! Since everyone's opinions can't be unanimous, then I propose to shelve the plan for the time being, and let the intelligence department arrange a special person to keep in touch with Lu Qiujian, and make a decision based on the value of the information he has sent!" the Great Elder spoke.

Qin Feng was still a little unwilling, he was silent for a while and raised his hand to show that he had something to say, and said after getting permission, "Dr. Lu is in Neon now, according to my understanding, he will return to China in the near future, or shall we listen to his plan first and then make a decision?"

"Well, let's do it!" the Grand Elder said, exchanging opinions. (To be continued.) )

PS: Someone said before that Qin Feng's secretary was unreasonable, so I adjusted!
