With a height of six meters and a diameter of two meters, four large refrigerators are arranged in bright layers, and the "petite" new reactor has ushered in the moment of testing. At the console at the edge of the site, the entire staff of the institute gathered here, and dozens of nearly 100 scholars watched the young engineers do the final repairs with anticipation, and gathered Aoyama Midong in the center with interest.

"According to our design specifications, when the right generator set is connected, it should be able to reach 500 kilowatt hours, which is that much power per hour. Although we are still far from the practical application of nuclear power plants, we are really not far from that goal! ”

Director Hoves' excitement was contagious to everyone present, and Midong was also trying to digest and absorb the situation at the scene, and carefully listened to his rare patient explanation. The power generation of 500 degrees per hour is indeed far from the standard of a power station, but it is really enough to supply power to half of the high-rise apartment buildings, and it is also the peak period of electricity consumption - what is this concept called?

"We selectively announce breakthroughs like this."

Female secretary Saito explained: "Because the common people don't really care about this kind of thing, unless we tell them that everyone will use something new tomorrow." In addition to the need to speculate in stocks, it is generally to attract more research funds, and then to popularize knowledge to the public. So the president ......"

"Four large refrigerators with double doors and 500 kilowatt hours of power generation, unless we want to become the focus of the world immediately, we should stop and stop."

Midong waved his hand and said: "I don't need to rely on this method to make a name, Honshu Heavy Industries, the keel of the second Musashi-class ship is laid, and the first steel plate is cut, isn't it heavyweight enough." Let's let Director Hofs start testing as soon as possible, how long have I been waiting here, hehe......"

Of course, this test was not specially prepared for Midon's arrival, so even if she came, everyone had to slowly debug it step by step. The stainless steel-colored metal cans are silent, but the people around them are extremely boiling, and the huge connectors are so delicate that if someone is too idle to take them apart, I believe that the intricate arrangement of wires inside will definitely make people collapse.

In the process, even the most idle researcher is about to be tired of being a dog, and naturally no one comes to introduce anything to Midong. This is a bit rude, but it is exactly the effect that Meidong wants, and the research institution should be above strength and knowledge, rather than patting around a gold lord with a lot of money all day long. It's rude or something, it couldn't be better.

Then, after a full half hour, Director Hofs announced that the test had begun.

"Reactor ignition countdown, start!"

The countdown numbers were displayed on the screen, and the Arabic counting letters were red to make Midong's eyes widen.

"Five!"

"Four!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

"Ignition, start!"

Listening only to the sound of humming seems to be an illusion, but it is reality that is invading the space of illusion. In a sturdy shell cast from high-strength metal, electromagnetic waves form a vacuum field, creating an environment where deuterium and tritium can be fused, and ultra-high temperatures.

Components such as circumferential field magnets and polar field magnets, vacuum chambers and their pumping systems, power supply systems, device control and plasma control, heating and current drive systems, jet and projectile injection systems, and even remote control operation and maintenance systems, countless devices that Midon even finds difficult to remember work together, and the ignition has obviously been successful!

Is that so?

The roar reaches its high point in an instant, and then continues in a low and sustainable way, like the continuous vibration of a car engine after it has started to roar. It is believed that if this was the first successful start of the first fusion reactor, the scene would have been in tears of cheers!

But not now.

"The power generation has been steadily increased, 50 kWh!"

"The power generation has been steadily increased, 70 kWh!"

"Good, hold on, 90 kWh, hold on!"

"It's broken through to 100, and it's going up!"

This group of white coats with an average age of more than forty has always been extremely calm, just staring at the meter data and constantly recording, constantly reporting, constantly adjusting, and constantly testing. They put Midon on the throne, but they just left her dry, and no one had time to pay attention to her.

"So, if you just start a fusion generator, it's not uncommon~"

Meidong sat back and waited for the cheers to come, a little disappointed, but more of a heartfelt relief and pride: "The new machine was born in only one year, and it was obviously two years after the last one came to power." If the technology is mature, that is, the next one will be next year, and the next one will be the year after tomorrow? ”

"This ...... You still have to ask Professor Hoves, President. ”

Secretary Saito said she couldn't answer the question.

"The power generation has been steadily increased, 400 kWh!"

"The power generation has been steadily increased, 450 kWh!"

"500 kWh! Arrive at the design indicators! It worked! ”

It was only then that Midong's long-awaited cheers finally arrived, starting the reactor was not the goal, and allowing it to continue to generate electricity was an outdated standard. 500 kWh of power generation, for the current fusion reaction research institutions, can increase the power of the reactor, is their tireless pursuit of the goal!

"It worked, it finally worked! All year of hard work, look at the meter data, 500 kWh of power generation! ”

Director Hofs is of course the most excited one, obviously over eighty years old, but he walks upside down. It's not just that he's dragging Midon, it's Midon supporting him, and the two stumble all the way.

"That's right, it's really amazing, 500 kWh electric nail, definitely enough for the daily use of an entire apartment building!"

Of course, Meidong is very happy, who doesn't want to see the progress of the investment project, especially when he inspects it for the first time, just in time for the new machine test? She was really surprised by this coincidence from the bottom of her heart, after all, the test or something, of course, was arranged a long time ago, but she clearly wanted to visit it in the morning!

"A high-rise apartment is set to 30 floors and 120 households, so each household uses no more than four kilowatt-hours of electricity at the same time, and it also needs to add elevators and other equipment...... Well, the math of the president is really good. ”

When he was jubilant, even the secretary couldn't help but make a joke about the boss. Although Midong is not as excited as the on-site researchers, she is also happy from the bottom of her heart, as for Saito's complaint itself......

"Director Hofs, tell me about the technical difficulties, the consortium is willing to do its best to support the development of this project, so I need to know what I can help...... In addition to simply providing funds. ”

Seeing that the test was just a coincidence, Meidong's sentence was the drama she was preparing for this trip.
