Someone left, which was expected.

The reason why they chose to leave was not only because of the failure of the experiment, but most importantly because of Gu Dong himself.

It's just that the direct impact of this failure is relatively large, and the people outside have already quarreled.

The comments are good and bad, perhaps because of the interference with oil, so some reports are more extreme, and they are not just singing down, but directly indicating that Gu Dong has failed, and the whole experiment has completely failed.

At the beginning of the experiment, many people were invested in the experiment with huge failures, so when such news came out, it immediately began to bombard the media.

"Is Lun Gudong a liar or a pseudo-scientist?

"Is Controlled Nuclear Fusion Really Possible?

"The experiment failed again, proving that Gu Dong was not a god, but just a person. Someone had high expectations of him before."

"Still clamoring to subvert the oil system? Gu Dong exaggerated!"

There are many similar reports, and some are more direct and sharp, and some people have already done it with Gu Dong.

Gu Dong naturally ignored them, the experiment continued, and it was estimated that in the future, it would continue to fail.

As with the hovering car before, the process will not be so smooth, and it is very normal to fail a few times.

The next time was more difficult, and the follow-up work was indeed as Gu Dong expected, and Gu Qi's latest more than 600,000 formulas still failed.

Then, some people chose to leave.

More than 100 people, more than 40 people have left, and then more than 20 people have come, and now there are only about 80 people working in the laboratory.

The pressure of public opinion and the pressure of work are all pressed on the heads of these people.

Gu Dong's work is also very busy, and he can't find time to manage other things at all, maybe his thinking was wrong from the beginning, so Gu Qi has miscalculated the formula again and again, and has eliminated more than three million possibilities.

Gu Dong had already gone to the Science and Technology City to find Sixteen, but the information that Sixteen could provide him was not very large, and most of it was on his own.

After finding a new direction, Gu Qi began to calculate again.

Long and difficult work often requires a lot of patience, and there are many possibilities of failure once, two, three, or even four or five times.

So, after continuing to be busy, there was still a failure.

Gu Qi simulated a large number of formulas, there were three or four million kinds of formulas, each of which was tried, and each one failed! The most recent time, Gu Qi directly provided three million and 200,000 formulas. The most of this time!"

"As soon as the formula came out this time, the whole experiment seemed to be impossible to do, there were originally eighty people, and more than thirty of them went directly that night, and even some old professors and scholars who were very determined at the beginning also questioned this experiment!"

"But he still hasn't planned to turn back, and he can't listen to any opinions now, he already plans to go all the way to the end!"

"More than 320 kinds of formulas, such data is daunting!"

"That's crazy, isn't it?

"I don't know if he's crazy or not, but so far, he hasn't lowered his standards, and that's the first problem we've encountered. Just one problem has stuck us for half a year, and we don't know what will happen in the future?

"So, was he the wrong way from the start?"

"At least I think that Mr. Gu Dong is too stubborn to communicate at all!"

Gu Qi once again came up with a plan of more than 3.2 million yuan, which really scared off some people, this is already the fifth time after the experiment was carried out, and there was no result for five times, and now, half a year has passed, and the project is still stuck and unable to progress.

Gong Haoming, Yang Baili and others also talked to Gu Dong once, and even Chen Dingguo, the president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, also talked to him once, but it was useless.

What the experiment requires, Gu Dong has never planned to reduce, if it doesn't work, it can't work, if it doesn't work, he can only overturn it and redo it, or find a new way.

"Even though you are the person in charge of this project, the money invested this time is also too much. Some people in the upper echelons of the country also have some opinions, and they don't know if they can return to their original costs after investing hundreds of millions!" Chen Dingguo said to him with a solemn face: "But we all understand that what we are doing is not an ordinary thing, and it is certain that we will encounter difficulties." ”

Gu Dong frowned and said, "What will be the opinion of the upper echelons of the country?"

Chen Dingguo said with a smile: "A few hundred million is not a small number!"

Gu Dong smiled: "A few hundred million is a small amount to me. If you don't get along, I can do it myself. Also, even if the monster company doesn't vote, if I send a signal to go out, I'm afraid there will be a lot of people waiting to send me money. Dean Chen, the experiment is still ongoing, so don't make it difficult for me!"

Chen Dingguo said with a smile: "I'm not creating difficulties for you, I'm solving difficulties for you." In fact, many professors have already questioned you, and many people inside are planning to impeach you!"

Gu Dong immediately smiled: "Is this useful?"

"It's useless, but at least it can make them angry!" Chen Dingguo said with a smile: "All in all, you continue the experiment, don't be unexpected, you can do what you want, in this regard, the above meaning is still very certain." If you want money or resources, you can talk to me directly, and I will apply. ”

Gu Dong glanced at him and smiled slightly: "According to the current progress, it is estimated that there are still many failures!"

"How many times will it fail?" Chen Dingguo looked at him.

"I don't know, but what I've been doing lately hasn't been going very well. Gu Dong sighed and said, "The difficulties we encountered are much greater than we imagined!"

Gu Dong didn't tell a lie, the difficulty of the problem he is facing now is indeed very high, but ...... As more and more experiments were done, Gu Qi's data seemed to be becoming more and more clear, and Gu Dong himself gradually mastered something.

New materials, new technologies, new standards!

He stood at the top of the earth's science and technology, and the problems he encountered were often century-level problems, so after bidding farewell to Chen Dingguo, Gu Dong continued to return to the experimental busy.

He needs to do the experiments asked by Gu Qi again, each one at a time, until he finds a suitable superconducting material.

For the next period of time, it was like this, experiments, failures, experiments, failures, people in the lab left, very quickly.

The public opinion on the outside continues, but as time goes by, people gradually become less concerned about this matter.

Later, Gu Qi took more than a million formulas, and most of the people in the laboratory were coping with things, and most of them were no longer serious about experiments.

A year later, late one night, there was silence in the fusion lab.

Outside the laboratory, several NSA soldiers were standing guard, staring at the lights inside the laboratory from time to time, with grim expressions.

In the laboratory, Gu Dong and several younger researchers stared at the contents of a small cup with solemn expressions.

These young researchers are all the latest graduate students to join the experiment, and several of them are from Tsinghua University and Peking University.

At this time, one of the researchers in his thirties looked very excited, and was nervously explaining something to Gu Dong.

"That's it, this titanium element was added to it, and then it was neutralized a little bit, and three milligrams of germanium and two milligrams of molybdenum were put in, and I followed the experimental procedure. The end result, such a thing appeared. I've just tested it and it's very magnetic!"
