After the new nanomaterials factory of the 781 center was put into production, Mu Wenjun, as the head of the materials research laboratory, personally sat in charge and deployed manpower to rush to produce parts for the 863 plan. Finally, when there were 57 days left in the deadline, this batch of rushed parts finally arrived at the 863 base, and Su Yichen, Chen Yuan and others, who had been waiting, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"How's it going, are you sure about the actual operation?"

Lin Dong arrived at Base 863 with these parts, and after seeing Su Yichen, he asked in a low voice, with a deep worry on his face.

"There is no 100% certainty in scientific research, but from the current situation, the probability of success is still very large." Lin Dong was not an outsider, and Su Yichen didn't need to ambush him, so he said bluntly.

"Oh, that's ......." Lin Dong relieved himself a little, squeezed out a smile and nodded.

"What? What's changing? Seeming to be concerned after noticing Lin Dong's smile, Su Yichen asked.

"It's nothing, the actual operation is about to start, your side is the top priority, you don't have to think about other issues, I'm still in the way of the tall man when the sky is stepped." Lin Dong smiled and raised his hand to clasp Su Yichen's arm, Su Yichen knew in his heart that Lin Dong didn't want him to be distracted at this time, so he didn't ask this question again.

These days, Lin Dong is facing no less pressure than Su Yichen, with the official start of the United Nations' new ITER program last month, the previous remarks about the termination of the 863 program have come out again, and this statement is not only at the top, but even within the Chinese Academy of Sciences There are many supporters.

For this reason, the chief specially called Lin Dong to ask about the progress of the 863 plan, and Lin Dong deliberately patted his chest and made a promise on the chief's side, which temporarily suppressed these signs. But if the actual operation of the 863 plan fails in the end, then this will undoubtedly be a fatal blow to Lin Dong, who is the clapper and guarantee, and may even affect other aspects.

Don't think that the Chinese Academy of Sciences is a holy place for academics, wherever there are people in this world, there will be struggles, and this is true for universities, and the same is true for institutions like the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is true that Lin Dongde is highly respected, and it is not false that he is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but don't forget that he is now not only the deputy director of the Institute of High Energy, but also the director of the 781 Center. Especially the latter, the sudden rise of the 781 Center, its huge investment scale and professional research team, in the eyes of some old qualified scholars with some ideas, is undoubtedly a piece of fat, in the eyes of some people, their qualifications are not worse than Lin Dong, and the foundation may even be deeper than Lin Dong, why can't it be replaced?

If the 863 plan finally fails, Lin Dong may even lose the position of the high-energy institute and the 781 center, and it is possible to take a back seat. As for the high-energy institute, Lin Dong left and left, and in his opinion, he didn't feel much regret, but the 781 center is different, and the heavy meaning of the 781 center Lin Dong knows better than anyone else, so he definitely doesn't want to see someone with ulterior motives take his place, if someone has to take over him, then he will not agree with anyone except Su Yichen.

Compared with Su Yichen, Lin Dong actually hoped that the 863 plan would succeed, but at this time, he knew very well that he must not tell Su Yichen the real situation so as not to distract him. Hiding a lot of thoughts, Lin Dong took the initiative to stay at the 863 base, he wanted to see Su Yichen's success with his own eyes.

The new components were in place, and the base reassembled the controllable thermonuclear fusion device, and when the assembly was completed, under the leadership of Su Yichen, another final segment test was carried out before actual operation. The test lasted three days, and a qiē number of jù confirmed that the new unit was working well.

The 49th day of the deadline is an important day for the 863 program, as today will be the start-up date of the actual operation of China's first practical controlled thermonuclear fusion unit. At 8:20 a.m., at the site of the underground base, all the researchers, including the leaders of the base, Lin Dong and others, all arrived, and the scene was silent in the face of the upcoming start-up.

Unlike the first test, there was no grand ceremony today, let alone a leader's speech, but everyone knew very well that today's start-up was of epoch-making significance. When the needle reached 8:28, Su Yichen walked to the center of the control platform, and after Chen Yuan, the substitute chief engineer, personally issued the boot order, with the eye-catching countdown of the LED light above returning to zero, the moment the ignition started, a buzzing sound began to come out from the inside of the device, and the actual operation of the controllable thermonuclear fusion device officially began.

"The vacuum chamber is working properly!"

"The magnetic field beam rate value is normal!"

"The laser plant is activated...... Laser ignition is normal! ”

"The accelerator is normal!"

"The laser frequency is normal!"

"Energy conversion is normal!"

"Energy output is normal!"

"The computing control system is normal!"

"The cooling system is working properly......

A series of reports echoed in the base, and the computer system of the general control continued to summarize the number and transmit it to the various terminals of the control center, at this time, whether it was Su Yichen or Lin Dong, or Chen Yuan and Dong Minghao, who were also nervous, and even the rest of the scientific researchers standing far away, were all paying attention.

"The situation is good, pay attention to the change of the number of observations at any time." 10 minutes after the start-up operation, Su Yichen expressed satisfaction after watching the summarized number, judging from the current situation, Yiqiē is much better than expected.

Half an hour passed in a flash, the whole device was still running well, and the number of qiē jù was perfect, at this time Lin Dong finally showed a smile, compared with the previous test, the possibility of actual operation success is very high.

At 20:30 that night, that is, after 12 hours of operation of the device, there were still no problems, and at this time, Su Yichen almost had eight * nine points of certainty about the final success, and the expression on his face became more relaxed.

The actual operation will be different from the previous test, this will be a long-term operation state, according to the practical stage design requirements, to ensure that the whole plant continues to operate for at least a month or more. As long as this process is achieved, then it can be said that the 863 project has been truly successful. During this long period of operation, in addition to the staff on duty, Su Yichen was the hardest as a key person.

Lin Dong was a participant, although Su Yichen and Chen Yuan persuaded him to rest, he would stay at the scene for seven or eight hours every day, and he would not leave no matter how much he persuaded him. The longer he runs, the more smiles he has on his face, and the whole person is even more energetic, as if he has suddenly become more than ten years younger.

When the device ran to 21 days, a small sudden accident made everyone have a false alarm, fortunately, Su Yichen, who was present, judged very accurately and adjusted it in time, and soon the device tended to run smoothly under the control.

"Did you record the change in the situation just now?"

"It's been recorded, Director Su, I thought it was ......." Chen Yuan wiped his cold sweat with palpitations and said, he was frightened by the sudden unstability of the device ten minutes ago, and even his brain was confused, and he didn't react to what the problem was. If it weren't for Su Yichen's decisive judgment that the internal energy imbalance of the device was caused by the problem of the energy output external equipment, he would almost have thought that the actual operation had failed.

"This may happen again in the future, so keep the operator on the lookout." Su Yichen replied calmly, but he seemed to be a little scared in his heart, after all, the actual operation and test are different, the problem just now is not the device itself, but the external equipment, which no one expected in advance.

"The instability of the external equipment almost affected the whole, Xiao Chen, this situation must be solved, and it is ...... another." Lin Dong said sternly on the side, Chen Yuan nodded when he listened, but who would have thought that Lin Dong would not follow after saying the word "other", Chen Yuan subconsciously looked up, who would have thought that at a glance, he saw that Lin Dong's face was pale and sweaty, his left hand covered his chest, and the whole person was shaky, he hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Lin Dong.
