Daqing City, southeast of Qiqihar City.

The State Grid, which was reorganized just last month, sent a team to Datong District, in the southern part of Daqing City.

This team not only has the management of the power grid, but also a platoon of soldiers, and this time they are planning to build a nuclear power plant in Datong, which cannot be managed in a conventional way, but must be managed militarized.

Li Zhimin of the expert group sat on the Dongfeng pickup truck, and a cool breeze blew into the cabin, and it was the time when the northeast was warm and cold.

Not far away is the Xinhua Thermal Power Station in Datong District, where the site of the nuclear power plant is on the side of the Xinhua Thermal Power Station.

It is nominally an upgrade project of the Xinhua thermal power station, but in fact it is a nuclear power plant, which is a trick.

After entering the Xinhua Thermal Power Station.

Yang Jiannan, general manager of the power plant, has been waiting for a long time, after all, this time the State Grid directly parachuted into the management, and he is also nervous in his heart.

Sure enough, the management of the power grid was airborne, and as soon as he came, Yang Jiannan was given a dismissal, and more than a dozen power plant managers and employees who seriously violated discipline were directly taken down by Hou Guoshun, who had just arrived.

After dealing with these people, Hou Guoshun convened a high-level meeting of the power plant.

"This time, I came here for two things, the first is the upgrading and reconstruction project of the Datong Xinhua thermal power station, and the second is to rectify the power system in Heijiang Province." Hou Guoshun said straight to the point.

More than a dozen local managers were nervous.

"If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will be punished, I remind you that before doing something, it is best to think about the consequences." After Hou Guoshun gave Ma Wei, he continued:

"Comrade Li Kaigang."

"Yes." A wooden middle-aged electrician stood up blankly.

He was also confused at today's meeting, and he had been the head of the mechanical repair team of the power plant for more than ten years, so he had no other part in this kind of high-level meeting.

As dazed as Li Kaigang, there were three other people.

"After the unanimous approval of the State Grid Corporation, Comrade Li Kaifu is now officially appointed as the director of the logistics department of Xinhua Thermal Power Station."

Li Kaigang was stunned, but fortunately, his colleague on the side pulled his pants.

Li Kaigang, who reacted, trembled in his voice: "Many... Thank you Mr. Hou, as well as the promotion and trust of the head office. ”

"Comrade Li Kaifu, don't let down the trust placed in you by the people and the head office."

"Definitely."

Then three other people were appointed, all of whom were very experienced and worked hard at the grassroots level, but who had not been promoted.

Yang Jiannan on the side was also very surprised, he knew that these people had the ability, but they were too rigid, so they naturally had no chance to be promoted.

I didn't expect Hou Guoshun to know the abilities of these people just after he came.

In fact, this is the result of big data screening of artificial intelligence, and the personnel department of the State Grid, like Huanong Group, is involved in it by artificial intelligence.

Those who have problems will be directly brushed down, and according to the needs of the position, big data will match two to three candidates.

However, the personnel department cannot change a candidate without a valid reason, and once it is amended, it must have a valid reason.

In fact, due to the existence of the automatic avoidance mechanism, the personnel department generally does not modify the candidate, because once modified, not only the candidate will be re-checked by the artificial intelligence, but the person who made the correction will also be investigated by the artificial intelligence.

This whole system has effectively curbed the possibility of cronyism and black-box operation.

It is also the reason why Huanong Group and State Grid have been reborn after the merger of the Citizen Trusteeship, and the strong internal management mechanism, coupled with the supervision of artificial intelligence, has brought a virtuous circle.

……

After appointing these Li Kaigang and others to fill the vacancy, Hou Guoshun and Li Zhi's militia split into two ways.

Hou Guoshun led people to rectify the power system in Heijiang Province, while Li Zhimin led people to start preparations for the Datong Xinhua Thermal Power Station (nuclear power plant).

The power grid's own engineering company, mobilized a large number of construction machinery, plans to complete the plant and camouflage shell of the nuclear power plant within three months.

Then the installation and construction of distribution stations and substations, and finally the nuclear fusion reactor and related supporting facilities.

After inspecting the construction site, Li Zhimin learned about the construction progress of the other two nuclear power plants through a virtual network.

The other two nuclear power plants are located in Liaocheng City, Qilu Province, and Laibin City, Gui Province. The construction of the two nuclear power plants is also progressing steadily.

……

Haicheng County, Shanmei, Lingnan, near Lianhua Mountain in the northwest.

Just after the construction of the substation and distribution station was completed, the Lianhuashan nuclear power plant began trial operation.

Dong Kuan and Wei Feng looked at the staff in the power distribution room, and after closing the grid-connected switch, they officially marked the Lianhuashan Nuclear Power Plant to transmit electricity to the entire Lingnan area.

However, at this time, the power generation of the nuclear power plant is not 100% started, and only about 10% of the power is started.

Because the grid needs to shut down other power stations with an annual power generation capacity of about 200 billion kilowatt hours in batches, it will take some time to adjust.

With the gradual rollout of fusion power plants, it is estimated that in the next five years, China will shut down the vast majority of thermal power plants, hydropower stations, wind power plants and photovoltaic power plants.

After all, the cost of electricity in conventional power stations is too high, and the cost of generating electricity in nuclear fusion power plants is negligible.

Because the current production cost of one kilogram of deuterium is 7,000 yuan, but this production cost is because the electrolysis of water requires a lot of electricity, which is not very interesting, if the electricity from a nuclear fusion power station is used to produce deuterium, the cost can be reduced to about one-tenth.

One kilogram of deuterium can theoretically generate 80 million kilowatt hours, and the current power generation system efficiency is 58~59%, that is, one kilogram of deuterium can generate 48 million kilowatt hours.

Jinwu-1 has a maximum annual power generation capacity of 200 billion kilowatt hours, which requires the consumption of about 4,167 kilograms of deuterium, and the cost of nuclear fuel is about 2.91 million yuan.

The cost of nuclear fuel is insignificant compared to the 200 billion kilowatt hours of electricity generated.

On the contrary, maintenance costs and labor costs have become the majority, which is why the power grid dares to offer a price of 0.2 gross per kilowatt hour, because this price is still profitable.

After Wei Feng, Dong Kuan and others saw the grid-connected power generation, they took a minibus to the next door to the power station, which is the newly established Lianhuashan Power Generation Equipment Company.

In fact, it is the R&D base of the previous Jinwu Project, which is now dedicated to the production of nuclear fusion reactors, and the three nuclear fusion reactors needed by the power grid are manufactured here.

Wei Feng, Dong Kuan and others entered the assembly workshop, which was a general assembly factory, and many parts were provided by other companies.

For example, the lasers provided by Shanghai Optical Machinery, the heat-resistant materials and carbon liquids provided by Siweishe, and the industrial computers provided by SMIC, involve dozens of enterprises.

This depends on the complete industrial system of the country, and if it is a foreign country, it is estimated that even half of the parts are not self-sufficient.

Wei Feng looked at the assembly workshop in silence, where the second Jinwu nuclear fusion reactor was being assembled, and there were some changes between this one and the first.

For example, it pays attention to modular design, which is convenient for disassembly and secret transportation, and the other is the installation of a positioning system and a self-destruct system.

"Fengzi, it seems that there is not much of a problem here." Dong Kuan pointed to the assembly workshop and said.

"It's really not a big problem, let's go back and discuss the issue of miniaturization!"

"Okay."

Controlled nuclear fusion is more difficult in terms of miniaturization than Jinwu 1, which is the second direction of the Jinwu program.
