Chapter 524: Igniting the Light of Nuclear Fusion
August 1, the first day of operation of the nuclear fusion power plant.
Allen's cat-eared maid was preparing breakfast and taking out soybeans that had been soaked for six hours, while another rabbit-eared maid was removing the core of the dates.
Add water to these two things and pour them into the soymilk maker, close the small lid, and press the opening switch, and the soymilk maker rumbles.
The two maids' cat ears trembled, and although they were used to the sound of the soymilk machine, they were terrified every time they turned it on, and sometimes it was really torture to hear too well.
When the soymilk machine is finished, the maid filters out the slag of the soymilk and adds some sugar to increase the sweetness.
On the other side of the kitchen, the rabbit-eared maid takes the steamed bread out of the cage.
"Is Master Allen awake?"
"I'll take a look."
The maid looked down at her watch, and it was almost half past six.
Today is the day of nuclear fusion, and Alan got up early, standing on the balcony and looking at the city of tomorrow in the early morning, the noise of nonsense one after another, which is extremely uncalm.
"Young master, it's time for breakfast." The maid put the various flavors of bread on the small plate, and then put the unhot red bean and soy milk on the table.
"Here we are."
Allen wore a black suit and red tie today, and a gentle smile bloomed on his hard-lined face, and several maids couldn't help but their little tails.
After a quick breakfast as always, Alan went out and got into his exclusive car and worked in the back seat of the car.
The driver's hydrogen car drove out of the distance, and two black cars drove up from another road, one in front of the other and one behind to escort Allen.
……
The power plant is located on the outskirts of Mingri City, and people from the central media have already rushed to the nuclear fusion power plant in official cars, and various photographers carry "cannons" on their shoulders to photograph the exterior of the nuclear power plant.
On the Internet, live broadcasts about nuclear fusion are also underway, and entertainment shows on other stations have been canceled to make way for nuclear fusion.
There weren't many entertainment programs in those years, and most of the entertainment programs were concentrated at night, and during the day it was usually the working hours of the orcs.
When nuclear fusion is successful, people will have less time to go to work and more time for entertainment, because Allen's next goal is to build a robot factory and free up productivity.
After a while, a long motorcade drove into the gate of the nuclear fusion power plant, and the central media reporter pointed the camera at the convoy to report the whole process.
Alan opened the door and got out of the car, stepped on the flashing lights into the fusion power plant, and came to the central control room of the fusion power plant.
"Your Majesty!" All the orcs in the central control room saluted.
"Excuse me, have you done all the pre-ignition inspections?"
"Report to Your Majesty, all the inspections are complete."
"Inject liquid helium." Alan glanced at it quickly.
"Yes, liquid helium." The orc presses the relevant button.
Alan stared at the screen, and the camera stared at Allen, transmitting Alan's expression into the live stream.
The temperature on the screen rises to a critical value, and the current is passed, and the supercomputer operates at full power, and the internal magnetic field is controlled in real time.
When everything was ready, everyone looked at Allen and waited for Allen to speak.
Alan said into the microphone, "Fill the fuel." ”
"Yes, fuel it!"
The fuel is also injected into the fusion device, leaving only the final ignition step.
The camera focuses on Alan again, the camera expands, and at this moment, Alan's expression is observed by thousands of people.
Even if they were not at the scene, the audience in front of the TV was infected by this solemn atmosphere, and their hearts beat at an accelerated pace, as if their hearts were held by the hand of fate.
The weight of history pressed on Allen's shoulders, but instead of pressing his hand, Allen calmly stretched out his right hand and pressed the red ignition button that symbolized the sun.
"Drip."
"One-minute countdown to ignition!" The speakers sounded the electronic synthesized sound of the main control computer.
The central media reporter pointed the No. 1 camera position at the countdown on the big screen, and the No. 2 camera continued to aim at His Majesty Allen's face.
During the webcast, the screen is split into picture-in-picture, with Allen's camera frame placed in the lower right corner, and the main camera countdown screen enlarged.
As the countdown progressed, whether it was a university classroom, a middle school classroom, or a primary school classroom, students were watching live TV in teaching, and their hearts were surging.
In schools where there is no television, students watch a live webcast of a projection screen from the teacher's building in the auditorium.
At this moment, all the channels of Tomorrow's Satellite TV are broadcasting this moment of nuclear fusion ignition.
There are almost no tourists on the streets of Tomorrow City, because they all run to the big shopping malls in the neighborhood to see the projection screens.
At the construction site, some people got a satellite TV, and all the workers crowded together, babbling some high-end theories that they didn't understand, watching the live webcast of the 65-inch color TV, and the heartbeat seemed to be synchronized with the beating time of the countdown to the ignition of nuclear fusion.
The industrial cities of Shuizhu, Baiyin, Saltpeter, and Nan'an City next door have also stopped working, and those who have TV watch live broadcasts, and those who do not have TV go to public places to watch live broadcasts.
"Ten, nine, eight, seven...... Three, two, one! ”
The countdown is over, followed by the mathematics that jumps out of the various monitoring screens on the control screen, and the lines begin to change, up and down, countless times greater than the changes in the eighteen bends of the detour.
On the live TV, the excited and hoarse voice of the director of the nuclear power plant was heard.
"The ignition was successful, and the temperature has risen to 100 million degrees."
"The instrument is working properly!"
The scene was silent for a while, and the orc sitting in the position jumped up and shouted, "Ah! It worked! ”
Although they could not see the light of nuclear fusion, the audience sitting in front of the TV was also boiling, and they knew that the inexhaustible little sun had been born and a new energy revolution was coming.
The orcs beside Eren wagged their cheerful little tails, and Windsor's eyes moistened, wiping the corners of his eyes.
Live television broadcasts record the images of this moment, and they will be known to history and future generations.
In school, in college class, Ephiena's two little loli hugged each other and jumped.
The surrounding classmates are crazy, origami airplanes are flying around the class, and some little orcs are hot-headed and confessing to the object of their minds.
At the construction site, the workers did not see the legendary sun, but they also felt the joy of pride when they watched the scientific researchers on the TV.
The nuclear fusion power station chief's eyes were moist, and he saluted Allen with a straight military salute: "Report to Your Majesty, the mission is complete!" ”
The camera clicks and clicks the shutter, eager to tear the camera apart into hundreds to record the history of each frame.
"Good work." Alan stretched out his hand and shook hands with the stationmaster.
"It's not hard at all!" The stationmaster said happily.
The footage recorded this scene, which was later called the handshake that opened the interstellar era, and was of epoch-making significance.
