Just after Jiang Chen revealed that the Future People Group had mastered the controllable nuclear fusion technology, the pot had exploded on the Internet. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info carried this news in Renren Daily and reprinted it on the official WeChat, which has been under the official Weibo of Renren Daily

"Nuclear fusion?

"Xiaobian, do you know how many degrees the temperature of the center of the nuclear fusion reaction is? I don't know if I'll tell you! More than 20 million degrees Celsius! No material in the world can withstand such high temperatures! I don't know if there is a solar system, but at least not on the earth!"

"Upstairs, I don't read much, but I still know a little bit about common sense. Since the temperature is too high, we can't turn the fire down? I think that the scientific researchers of our country can start from this angle, and it is not too difficult for us to study it if we want to come to the new country. ”

“…… You think the reactor is your gas stove?"

"Poofhaha, the master is in the folk. ”

In addition to these unnutritious replies, many well-known big Vs also left their own pen and ink, expressing their views on Transwarp Trade's continuous breakthrough of the two major technical problems of long-distance wireless power transmission and controllable nuclear fusion.

"I hope that another 10,000 SCI papers can be exchanged for controlled nuclear fusion, and when we are still studying how to carve on bronzes, the compatriots across the ocean have already picked up their hammers and started to forge iron? A well-known news commentator made such a sigh on his neck after reading the report of Renren Daily.

"Because of the breakthrough in nuclear fusion technology, the domestic electricity price in Singapore has dropped from S$0.12 to S$0.02? It seems that the title of this country of hope has to be moved from the other side of the Pacific, and it is said that the housing prices in the new country are not very expensive? Star Ring Trade has recently announced its Mars colonization plan? Children's shoes that can't afford to buy a house can be considered, anyway, you don't need to learn a foreign language here, haha. A god-level mainland game anchor nicknamed Shadow Demon said when he bragged to his sailors in the live broadcast room.

It is not only China that is shocked by the rapid technological progress of the Future People Group, but also the United States on the other side of the ocean.

In the evening science talk show, CBS invited Professor Omar Harriken of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, a leading figure in the American nuclear physics community, to explain the difficulty of line-of-sight controlled nuclear fusion in plain language to all audiences.

"Back in the 50s, we made a bold prediction that in 30 years we would be able to use fusion to generate electricity. But we know that as of today, the phrase '30 years from now' is still our optimistic estimate of controlled nuclear fusion technology. As many of you know, there is no material in the world that can withstand 20 million degrees of heat, and even if it exists, there is absolutely no way for us to use it. In the interview, Professor Harriken was asked by the moderator to introduce the difficulties of nuclear fusion technology.

"Just a few years ago, we were actually infinitely close to controlled nuclear fusion. ”

"In inertial confinement fusion, we at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory use 192 lasers to heat and compress a fuel pellet until the fusion reaction occurs, and we already have the prototype of a small nuclear fusion power generation device. Now in Livermore, California, the device resembles a ball wrapped in metal, but the reactants are smaller than a fingernail. ”

At this, Professor Omar Harriken's expression was rather melancholy.

They originally thought that in terms of nuclear fusion technology, the only worthy competitors were Russia and Huaguo, which was catching up, but they did not expect to be finally won by a private company that has suddenly risen in recent years - the Future People Group.

After listening to this, the host Anderson nodded with a serious expression, and then asked, "So how far do you think the United States is from mastering nuclear fusion technology?"

"It could be tomorrow, or it could be thirty years from now. Professor Harriken smiled and shook his head, "Science, unless you step through that door, you never know how many steps you have to take to kick that door." ”

While there was a lot of talk among the people about the construction of a nuclear fusion power station by Transwarp Trading, the high-level officials of various governments did not stop their actions.

The United States took the lead in raising the budgets of three nuclear research institutes in China, and announced in a high-profile manner that its domestic research institutes had made a "major breakthrough" in the nuclear fusion program. Meanwhile, Kerry, who is visiting Europe, is negotiating with France to build an undersea transmission line from the west coast to Paris.

On the other hand, the White House has not forgotten to launch a diplomatic offensive to block the submarine cable construction agreements that Transwarp Trade has signed with Australia and Japan.

Obviously, the Clinton administration has sensed that the submarine cable laid by Star Ring Trade will have an incalculable impact on the foreign policy strategy of the United States.

Regardless of whether there is a shadow of nuclear fusion technology on its side, or whether it has the ability to mine helium-3 only on the moon, the Hillary government, which cannot sit still, has begun to build submarine cables to connect the power grids of the United States and Europe.

Russia's long-deteriorating economic situation has made it impossible to increase its budget for fusion projects. And, considering that even if they developed their own controlled nuclear fusion technology, they did not have the ability to build colonies on the moon to refine helium-3 in the lunar soil, and it is very likely that they would eventually buy it from the Star Ring trade.

Russia simply sent high-level diplomats to the new country with the president of its own unified power company, and approached Transwarp Trade to discuss the construction of an undersea cable from Anga Island to Vladivostok. Because this submarine cable is in the same direction as the submarine cable to Japan, construction can begin at the same time.

This time, it was not Jiang Chen who went in person, but the other party took the initiative to come to the door, and the main venue of the negotiation was naturally on Jiang Chen's side.

After some discussions, Russia accepted 70% of the cost of building and maintaining the submarine cable, and Transwarp Trade will hire a local Russian company to complete the construction of the submarine transmission cable.

As for China, its attitude towards Transwarp Trade's breakthrough in nuclear fusion technology is somewhat ambiguous.

As the world's factory, Huaguo's annual power generation capacity is also the world's first. The majestic Three Gorges Project is a miracle of hydropower projects in human history, generating the same amount of electricity as five Daya Bay nuclear power plants, but at a fraction of the cost of expensive nuclear power.

China's industrial and residential electricity prices are themselves at a low level. This is also the reason why Jiang Chen did not list Huaguo as the target of the first round of laying when he established the global power grid plan, because his cheap electricity is not so attractive for the deep Chinese market. Moreover, it is still difficult for domestic enterprises to integrate into the State Grid and compete fairly with state-owned enterprises, let alone foreign companies to enter the network.

Science and technology financial subsidies can also be done.

Yes, of course, but not urgently.

As for whether China has increased its research budget for fusion power generation technology and established a new space strategy after hearing that its brother countries have made breakthroughs in nuclear fusion technology, they have not made much noise. (To be continued.) )
