Chapter 1161: A New Product of a Chinese Enterprise!
"Mr. Komolov, it no longer makes sense to say this. Let's think about how we can minimize the damage. The Fukushima accident is far from being a problem for Japan alone, and if the meltdown problem is not solved, and a large amount of nuclear waste flows into the sea through groundwater, then Russia, South Korea, North Korea, and China will all become indirect victims of this accident. β
Yuan Ce was specially invited by the IAEA to represent the Chinese side, but at the same time, this well-known expert in the field of nuclear power construction in China also has a good personal relationship with Komolov.
Now seeing that the old man's emotions were out of control, Yuan Ce hurriedly spoke out to appease.
"Hmph!" Komolov did not dissipate his anger because of Yuan Ce's words, but snorted coldly: "Now that the situation has developed to this point, what else can I do? The meltdown has already occurred, and according to the data given by the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, these sets of fuel rods have been replaced in the near future. Based on the current situation, they can maintain a high temperature and high heat for at least four years!"
Hearing this date, some of the Japanese personnel present had a bad look on their faces.
In four years' time, the nuclear waste can be drilled thousands of meters underground. If that were the case, the damage would be incalculable.
"I don't know if you have any way, but in my opinion, there is only one way to completely solve the current problem. It is to organize a construction team that is not afraid of death, like Chernobyl, to build a base that prevents melt penetration underground.
But I need to remind you that if this scenario is carried out when the melt penetration has already occurred, then the people involved in the construction will die.
While not afraid of death, you must also move fast enough. Based on current data, the melt-through velocity could reach one meter per hour. But this speed is only going to get faster and faster. So you have a very limited amount of time, and it's best to do it in five days.
Also, when the Chernobyl leak occurred, we built the base ten meters underground. But that was when the meltdown didn't happen, and now if you want to use the same solution as Chernobyl, you have to at least double the depth of the down. In other words, this base should be carried out twenty meters underground!"
Hearing the old man's plan, everyone present took a breath of cold air.
The officials who thought that the Japanese side accompanied the IAEA even turned their faces directly: "Mr. Komolov, are you teasing us?"
Komolov rolled his eyes, "Why?"
Which official said indignantly: "At a depth of 20 meters underground, how is it possible to construct a base with a diameter that can cover the area at the bottom of the reactor and to complete it in five days?
Seeing the anger on the faces of the Japanese officials, Komolov crossed his hands together, and calmly provocative with a look of life and death of a fighting nation: "What? Now I think about it? Why did you go before the meltdown happened? If you just abandon the nuclear reactor and pour a sufficient amount of boron-added seawater into the core to cool down, how can such a thing happen now?"
If you want me to say, Fukushima is simply cheaper for you, such an irresponsible country with the third largest nuclear power network in the world. It's a miracle that you've survived so far. HeheγIt seems that Hiroshima and Nagasaki still haven't been able to make you feel the power of nuclear power.γ β
"Baga! you say it again?!" The old man uncovered the scar, and the official directly rioted.
"Calm down!"
Yuan Ce saw the conflict and hurriedly came forward to mediate, "There is no point in fighting now. Mr. Komolov, is there no other way than this?"
Komolov rolled his eyes, "Yuan, you are also an expert in the field. Do you think of anything else that could be more effective?"
Yuan Ce frowned, thought for a long time, and shook his head.
In fact, Yuan Ce has a plan in his heart, that is, to give up the car to protect the handsome, and directly let the melt penetrate. However, all the groundwater below the stratum is blocked, and space is exchanged for time to isolate the radioactive pollution sources from penetrating into the sea.
However, if this plan is implemented, the amount of work is bound to be extremely large, and the difficulty of operation is no less than that of Komolov's Chernobyl disposal plan.
Seeing that Yuan Ce didn't say a word, Komolov sneered at the Japanese escort: "So, gentlemen. That's all I can think of, and as for whether to do it, how to do it, and when to do it, that's your own business. β
"We've already had a nightmare like this, and now it's your turn. Therefore, as a person who has come before, I warn you that nothing can be solved by letting it go and hoping for tomorrow. Time can solve some problems, but human time is very limited. β
After thinking about it, he added.
β¦β¦β¦
Japan, Prime Minister's Residence.
Kan frowned tightly when he saw the remedial plan jointly submitted by the International Atomic Energy Agency and the Nuclear Energy Inspectorate of Japan.
"So, this underground fortification must be built?"
He asked to himself.
"Hey!" the assistant nodded heavily, "the expert group we organized also supports Komolov's plan. In the current situation, this may be the most effective way to do it. β
Kan Naoto raised his wrinkled head,
He's under a lot of pressure these days.
The series of disposals that followed the leak at the Fukushima nuclear power plant did not change for the better. Rather, on the contrary, every decision he made was making things worse.
Looking back at the orders given from him these days, the only two that worked were the evacuation of the people of Fukushima and the surrounding area.
At such a pace, his public approval rating is extremely low. Even the rival parties gave him a nickname based on his performance - TEPCO press officer.
In order to satirize his incompetence throughout the process, and his favoritism towards TEPCO and all kinds of mistakes.
"It can't go on like this. He shook his head and instructed his assistant, "Go, call me all the companies that can provide construction solutions." β
"Hey!" the assistant nodded heavily and took the order.
Fifteen minutes later, representatives of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Construction, Nissan Diesel Group, and six other Japanese companies stood in front of Kan.
"Let's see, which of you can complete this plan?"
Several copies of Komolov's "death" plan were displayed in front of the delegates.
But after reading all the details of the plan, these people were dumbfounded.
They looked at each other with the plan, and they both saw fear and uneasiness in each other's eyes...... With powerlessness!
Looking at these companies, which represent the highest level of Japanese industry, are silent, Kan's eyes are full of disappointment.
Just as he was about to force the identification of one of the delegates present to try it out, there was a commotion outside the door.
"I want to see Mr. Prime Minister! I've found a way, I've found a way to stop the meltdown!"
"What person?" Kan Naoto shouted outside the door.
"Mr. Prime Minister, I am an official of the Patent Office. He rushed in despite the security guards, demanding to see you. β
"He just said that there is a way to stop the melt-through?"
"Well, yes, Prime Minister. β
"Then let him in. β
"Hey!"
After a short time, a middle-aged man in a straight suit but with disheveled hair walked in under the control of the security guards of the Prime Minister's Office.
Seeing Kan Naofei, this person excitedly raised a document in his hand: "Mr. Prime Minister, I have found a way to stop the Fukushima power station from melting!"
"Tell me about it. Kan Nao said in a deep voice.
"The document in my hand is an engineering product that has just been registered with the International Patent Office and uploaded to our patent office. According to the performance marked above, this TBM product is fully capable of building a penetration-resistant base underground in a short period of time!"
"Oh?!" Kan Nao's eyes lit up, he got up and grabbed the official, and asked, "Which of our companies is it?"
"No, Mr. Prime Minister, not our business. It's a ...... called Zhengxin Chinese Enterprise!"
"Nani?!"
Hearing the word "Zhengxin", the representatives of the enterprises present were stunned.
