261 - Chinese New Year
The reason why a perfect transtokamak device requires the use of high-offset metals is that the energy produced by fusion requires an inner wall called a "cladding" to absorb it.
"Cladding", also known as "the first wall of the fusion reactor", is directly facing the inner wall of fusion, it has to face tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of degrees of high temperature plasma, as well as a large number of neutron radiation, the strength of the material depends on the arrangement of the atoms, in this extreme condition, the atoms are constantly bombarded, the material properties will soon deteriorate.
As a result, such walls can be made extremely complex, such as the 80 cm to 100 cm thick cladding of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor project, but this thickness is still not enough for high-energy neutrons.
Therefore, the emergence of metamorphosis materials such as high-offset metals is necessary.
However, now Chen Chen does not have the conditions to make high-offset metals, so he can only settle for the next best thing and find a way to build another inertial fusion reactor.
Inertial confinement fusion, also known as laser fusion, requires a very high laser power to do, and also requires high-precision optical instruments to control the aiming of the laser, and the symmetry of the implosion is very high.
In the technology of the Elysium plane, only 48 are needed to do this, but only 48 of them are required, but only if all laser emitters are in a supersymmetrical state,
Of course, the components of these laser generators cannot be counted on in Namibia, Chen Chen asked Xiao X to check, and directly customized a large number of optical components and control chips in various high-tech companies in North America, and then ordered many lenses and optical components in Europe.
Some of these suppliers are dedicated to ASML in the Netherlands, and the components of the EUV lithography machine are produced by these suppliers.
As for some things that can't be obtained, Chen Chen will have to rely on those consortia.
So at the beginning of the New Year in 2024, Chen Chen returned to Handu and spent a New Year with his parents.
According to the tradition of Zhongzhou District, the New Year is a day to pay New Year's greetings to the elders, and the first day of the Lunar New Year is to pay New Year's greetings to the father's elders.
Chen Chen's father has three brothers and one sister in his generation, among which Chen Chen's father is the youngest, which means that Chen Chen has two uncles and an aunt, and these people also have one or two heirs.
The eldest of them is the son of Chen Chen's eldest uncle, who is already thirty years old this year, has established his own family, I heard that he works in a bank, and the youngest is the youngest daughter of the second uncle, who is the same age as Chen Chen, and has entered his senior year, and he will graduate in half a year.
Chen Chen is actually not familiar with this kind of annual family gathering, when he was a child, Chen Chen's father was assigned to the frontier area because he was admitted to the military academy, and Chen Chen grew up in the frontier from birth to eight or nine years old.
Later, Chen Chen's father had no way to be promoted in the army for a long time, so after being a battalion commander for nearly ten years, he chose to change jobs and returned to his hometown Handu and became an ordinary grassroots civil servant.
But who would have thought that this dang would be the grassroots level for a lifetime.
After his father returned to Handu, Chen Chen began to contact his parents' relatives, Chen Chen's life was not bad, that is, an ordinary working family, and it was a decent family gathering every year.
And Chen Chen's two uncles are also half-catty, only Chen Chen's uncle survived and became the deputy director of the Electric Power Bureau, which has always been the core of the annual family gathering.
However, as more and more news about Blacklight Technology came in the past two years, relatives gradually learned about it.
Maybe they don't know anything else, but at least they know that Blacklight Technology is a giant multinational group company, and which one with the name of a multinational group is not worth hundreds of millions of dollars?
Later, as Chen Chen's parents bought a villa in a wealthy area, the relatives gradually became more enthusiastic about Chen Chen's family, which also made Chen Chen's parents straighten their waists here.
"Xiao Chen is 22 years old this year, it's really promising."
At the dinner table, Chen Chen's aunt sighed, "I still remember that Xiao Chen was a little little little a few years ago, but I didn't expect it to be so big in the blink of an eye......"
"That's right, it's time to talk to someone, Xiao Chen, do you have any girls you like here?"
The second aunt on the side hurriedly asked, "Although foreign women are not bad, after all, genes often mutate, for example, our neighbor found a Yanma daughter-in-law, and finally gave birth to a little black child, or our own genes are stable......"
“?”
Chen Chen raised his head consciously.
"Xiao Chen is still young now, right?"
Chen Chen's father was a little embarrassed, "Now we still have to focus on our careers, and we can afford to wait for three or five years." ”
"Eh, fourth brother, you said this well!"
Chen Chen's uncle gave a thumbs up, "After all, the man is ambitious, great, great!" ”
The crowd burst into laughter.
"By the way, Xiao Chen, now that you have opened a company, there should be a lot of entertainment, right?"
Uncle Chen Chen picked up a glass of wine, "And you're not a child now, give your uncle a face, have a drink?" ”
"I don't drink." Chen Chen waved his hand.
"Eh, Xiao Chen's words are out of sight."
Uncle Chen Chen's expression was stiff, and he said a little unhappily, "If you don't want to drink, you say you don't want to drink, they are all big bosses, who believes that they can't drink?" ”
"Uncle, I really don't know how to drink."
Chen Chen smiled quietly, it was not that he was holding the shelf, but that it was true.
It has long been shown in the movie that after taking NZT-48, the male protagonist went to the bar to fool around during the effect of the drug, and as a result, after drinking a few glasses of wine, the whole person fell into a state of fragmentation, and he had no memory of everything that happened in the next ten hours.
For Chen Chen, who tried to control everything, this kind of situation that he couldn't even control himself was simply unacceptable, so from the day he got the NZT-48, he never touched a drop of wine.
"Xiao Chen, anyway, today is a holiday, why don't you have two drinks with your uncle?"
On the side, Chen Chen's father played a round game, and at the same time secretly urged Chen Chen.
Chen Chen's father has always been a traditional person, sticking to the old rules, and he doesn't want to see Chen Chen disobey his elders.
Seeing this, Chen Chen smiled lightly, picked up his Pepsi and poured it all into an empty wine glass, and then said to his uncle, "Uncle, I toast you." ”
As he spoke, he drank a large glass of Coke.
Seeing this, Chen Chen's uncle didn't say much, just drank his own wine and sat down, and the atmosphere at the table was a little dull for a while.
After eating, Chen Chen sat on the sofa and played with his mobile phone, which is also the character that Chen Chen has always shown, introverted and rarely talkative, if someone didn't take the initiative to speak, Chen Chen could not say a word for a day.
However, if Chen Chen, who used to have such a personality, was just a little transparent in the party, at this time, it was no longer what it used to be, although everyone still seemed to be talking happily on the surface, but in fact, everyone's attention was focused on Chen Chen, intentionally or unintentionally.
Just sitting on the sofa for a while, Chen Chen felt the secret gaze of everyone, and Chen Zheng, the son of the eldest uncle, was also a little restless, looking at his side frequently.
It seemed that after hesitating for a long time, Chen Zheng finally mustered up the courage, secretly walked to Chen Chen's side, and gently patted Chen Chen's shoulder.
"Xiao Chen, come here, brother will tell you something!"
Chen Zheng lowered his voice.
Chen Chen nodded, put away his phone and stood up, and followed Chen Zheng out of the living room.
At the same time that Chen Chen stood up, as the core of the entire party, almost everyone subconsciously looked over, seeing everyone's reaction, Chen Zheng, who was walking in front, blushed even more, and didn't see it at all.
The second aunt on the side even secretly pinched the second uncle's arm.
It wasn't until he walked to the courtyard and avoided everyone that Chen Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, he took out a box of cigarettes, took out two of them and handed them to Chen Chen.
Chen Chen waved his hand, indicating that he did not smoke.
Seeing this, Chen Zheng was a little embarrassed, "You have opened a company, don't you even smoke?" ”
"Carbon monoxide kills human brain cells." Chen Chen pointed to his head, and then said, "Cousin, if you have something, tell me directly." ”
"Ahem, in that case, I'll be blunt."
Chen Zheng coughed lightly, "It's such a cousin, my brother has been tired of being in the bank recently, seeing that you are so good now, I also want to open a company to invest in a project, and now I have saved more than 200,000 yuan in hand over the years, but unfortunately it is still almost, so I will see if you can borrow me a little ......first, cousin, cousin."
In the end, Chen Zheng's face was a little red.
Chen Chen didn't immediately agree, but asked, "What is the project?" Does my sister know? ”
"I want to open an advertising agency, but your sister basically doesn't agree, so I came to you."
Chen Zheng shook his head and said with a wry smile, "In her opinion, opening a company is not as stable as working in a bank after all, but I know that if I continue to work, this life will be like this, and I am really a little unwilling......"
Chen Chen thought about it when he heard this, "Otherwise, I will invest one million, all of which should be shares, accounting for 70% of the company's shares, cousin, you are responsible for managing the company, occupying 30% of the shares, as for your deposit, don't use it, I heard that my sister is pregnant, so it's better to keep that money for emergencies." ”
"Really?"
Chen Zheng was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, "Thank you, cousin, I didn't expect you to be so generous!" ”
Chen Chen waved his hand, "Okay, I'll stay in Handu for the next few days, you can come to me after you find a lawyer to draw up a contract." ”
With that, Chen Chen returned to the room.
When he returned to his sofa, Chen Chen secretly sighed.
He knew in his heart that after his own career, this kind of thing was indeed inevitable, in fact, as early as a year or two ago, Chen Chen's parents were borrowed by relatives around him to take a lot of money.
Although Chen Chen would not feel distressed even if the amount of money that was 'borrowed' away was a thousand times more, this kind of thing would always make people feel uncomfortable.
However, Chen Zheng is different, he is the same as his former self, he belongs to the kind of person who is honest and has few words, and he never asks for help easily, as far as Chen Chen knows, among all his relatives, that is, the uncle's family, has not borrowed money from Chen Chen's parents.
Now that the other party has spoken, Chen Chen is naturally willing to give the other party a chance.
However, although the other party keeps saying that he is "borrowing money", he actually has no ability to repay, in case of loss, Chen Chen can't let the other party take the real estate certificate as a mortgage, and Chen Chen's parents won't let Chen Chen do this.
Therefore, Chen Chen simply joined the other party's entrepreneurship in the form of a joint-stock system, no matter whether he made money or lost in the future, Chen Chen was not pained.
And if he really loses money, the relationship between the two will naturally be broken, even if the other party still wants to borrow money, Chen Chen has a reason to go back to the absolute party to block his mouth.
After sitting on the sofa for a while again, the second uncle, who was impatient with the second aunt's urging, finally came over, and whispered with a smile on his face: "Xiao Chen, come out, uncle has something to say to you......"
Chen Chen didn't look up, just swiped his mobile phone, and said at the same time, "Second uncle, I'm a little tired today, just say anything straight." ”
Chen Chen learned from the bodyguards who were placed next to his parents that the second uncle had taken more than 800,000 yuan from his father in the name of borrowing money, so much so that even an indiscriminate person like Chen Chen's father was unwilling to lend him any more......
"Uh......"
Suddenly, the second uncle's face showed embarrassment, he glanced back at the second uncle, and then he smiled and said, "That's the case, my uncle has been a little tight recently, do you think you can borrow a little money from your uncle?" ”
"Second uncle, I remember that you didn't borrow a lot of money from my father, how can you repay the loan?"
Chen Chen pretended to be curious and said, "You also know that it is not easy for me to work hard outside, I originally wanted to save some money to marry a daughter-in-law in the future, but I didn't expect it all to be borrowed by you, and now I haven't even seen an IOU, and I am also very embarrassed." ”
"Xiao Chen, you said you don't have money, we don't believe it!"
Finally, the second aunt, who had been secretly commanding the second uncle, couldn't help but speak, "Who doesn't know that Blacklight Technology is a multinational large enterprise now?" Everyone on the Internet knows that the CEO of Blacklight Technology is worth tens of billions, and your family lives in a villa of millions and drives a luxury car of millions, so we will lend you so much money, they are all the closest relatives, can you be so stingy? ”
Just as soon as he opened his mouth, he showed a pungent look.
For a while, the atmosphere between everyone cooled down again, and everyone showed a touch of embarrassment on their faces.
Chen Chen simply ignored the other party, he stood up directly, "Dad, Mom, let's go." ”
"Oh, good, good......"
Chen Chen's father just woke up from a dream, he sighed, said hello to everyone, grabbed Chen Chen's mother and walked out.
"You ......"
The second aunt was dumbfounded and looked blankly, but she never knew what to say.
After leaving his grandmother's house, Chen Chen drove his parents back, and Chen Chen's father sighed frequently along the way, still seemingly a little confused.
"The second brother, who was originally good, why did he suddenly become like this?" Chen Chen's father couldn't help but ask.
"Probably, this is life......
Chen Chen replied in a low voice.
