The predecessor of the National Controlled Fusion Energy Program Implementation Center is the International Controlled Fusion Energy Implementation Center, which has changed its name since Huaguo withdrew from ITER, and the previous director position has been held by Zhou Chengfu.

Just looking at Academician Pan's expression, Lu Zhou knew that most of the academicians in the old gentleman's mouth were lobbying by himself.

After all, with his connections in the domestic academic community, he will not let a few academicians who have never met write letters for him.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhou couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Do you want to accept it?

After thinking about it, he spoke: "...... Now that I'm already the chief designer of the STAR-2 demonstration reactor project, wouldn't it be nice to be the director of the National Center for the Implementation of the Controlled Fusion Energy Program? What's more, the research work is already very busy, and I can't spare that time. ”

"There's nothing wrong with that, it's already common in academia to wear multiple hats. What's more, these two positions don't conflict in research, and they won't take much of your time. Academician Pan shook his head, "You take the position of director, and throw the specific work to the secretary or assistant, or if you really don't want to take care of it, just throw it to the deputy to do." ”

If it were an ordinary person, Academician Pan would definitely not suggest this, after all, everything is thrown to the deputy to do, and the example of the main position being hollowed out is too common.

But Lu Zhou's words......

I guess you don't need to worry about that.

Seeing that Lu Zhou didn't seem to be convinced, Academician Pan continued.

"If you don't plan to do it, it's not appropriate for a few deputy directors to promote anyone, and I won't say that you can probably figure it out. If a leader is parachuted in from the Energy Bureau, it is a trivial matter if he is not familiar with the work, and he is afraid that he will become a layman commanding an insider and seriously delay the progress of the project. Now that we are concentrating on big things, we must do everything possible to avoid the loss of resources in unnecessary places. ”

Lu Zhou: "...... I'll think about it again. ”

Seeing that Lu Zhou had his own opinions, Academician Pan no longer persuaded him, but just nodded.

"Okay, if you think about it again, the Energy Bureau will probably ask for your opinion in advance. By the way, stellarators...... No problem, right? ”

It may be that he just talked about concentrating on big things, and Academician Pan's heart was a little panicked.

Unlike laymen, this term is still quite a headache for people engaged in scientific research.

It is certainly efficient to concentrate on doing big things, but the premise is that the direction of the effort is right.

Although he knew that the possibility of being wrong was very small, Academician Pan couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Lu Zhou immediately coughed lightly: "We've all come this far, don't mess with things like flags." ”

Academician Pan was stunned: "What is Fleg?" ”

Lu Zhou: "...... You can understand it as another way of saying the crow's mouth. ”

"You young people, can't you say something I understand, and my granddaughter is too, saying something difficult all day long," Academician Pan shook his head and got up from the sofa, "Okay, I'm relieved that you're so sure." Don't talk to you, I'll go back to Beijing. ”

Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Go slowly." ”

……

In the end, after some careful consideration, Lu Zhou still accepted Academician Pan's proposal and accepted the position of director of the National Controlled Nuclear Fusion Energy Program Implementation Center.

As for the financial, personnel management and other administrative tasks of the Executive Centre, the original arrangements will continue to be maintained without change. If necessary, adjustments will be made at that time.

Lu Zhou didn't need to use this position to achieve any political demands, all he needed was that the institution could continue to operate according to the ideas he wanted without causing trouble to his research.

Anyway, this implementation center, after the completion of the nuclear fusion demonstration reactor, is estimated to have to be reorganized again.

At that time, he can almost retire with success, and then just resign from this director.

On the second weekend of Zhou Chengfu's resignation, Lu Zhou received official appointment documents.

At about the same time, there was good news from the nuclear industry group.

Academician Wang, who returned to the demonstration reactor base again, immediately found Lu Zhou, and was so excited that he didn't even have time to say hello, so he went straight to the point.

"The set of drawings you took is very useful, and we have basically solved the production of LPC-1 materials! Production can start by the end of the month at the latest! ”

Hearing this news, Lu Zhou's face also showed a hint of a smile, and he immediately asked.

"Where is the factory built?"

Academician Wang: "Chang'an! ”

Ceramic matrix composites are widely used in the aerospace industry, because of their high temperature resistance, high strength, relative weight and many other properties, they are mainly used in liquid rocket engine nozzles, missile radomes and other parts.

Therefore, the largest production base of ceramic matrix composites in China is in Chang'an, and the LPC-1 material production plant jointly owned by the Nuclear Industry Group and the Jinling Institute of Computational Materials is also built there.

But Chang'an......

This has penetrated deep into the hinterland of the country.

Lu Zhou: "...... Will it be too far to build it in Chang'an? ”

In fact, according to his idea, it can be produced near Haizhou, so that if something happens in production, the researchers here at the Institute of Computational Materials can also come over to help.

Just like the SG-1 superconducting material, from the upgrade of the production line to the solution of a series of technical problems, the researchers of the Institute of Computational Materials can be said to have helped a lot.

Academician Wang shook his head: "It's not far, and it only takes two days to take the railway transportation." It happens to be very close to our production base in Rongcheng, and the materials are directly transported to Rongcheng for processing into parts, and then sent to Haizhou for assembly. ”

There is another point that Academician Wang did not say, that is, from the perspective of production safety, production in inland areas is much safer than in coastal areas.

After all, although this thing is not military technology, it involves nuclear power after all, and it can be regarded as sensitive technology.

Lu Zhou nodded, and said nothing more.

"Alright, you're experts at this, so I won't say more. Machining ...... of stellar simulator orbits Is there a problem over there? ”

Hearing this question, Academician Wang waved his hand and said.

"You can rest assured about this, 20 years ago, the old experts of the nuclear industry went to visit the nuclear power plants of the French, even if they looked at it from afar, they could come back and do a good job. Anyway, we have been thinking about the STAR device for almost half a year, and we have repeatedly disassembled and studied it so many times, and we still changed the coil for you. If you can't get this thing right, you can just go home and farm! ”

Lu Zhou said with a smile.

"That's not going to work, this project wouldn't have been able to go ahead without you. If you want to go back to farming, you have to wait for our demonstration pile to be successfully connected to the grid. ”

Hearing this, Academician Wang was happy in his heart, squinted his eyes and smiled, but did not speak.

The sentence "Without you, this project would not have been able to continue" was poked at his heart.

It's a good feeling to be taken seriously.

Especially since this man is also a Nobel Prize winner......

After a pause, Lu Zhou continued: "The problem of material production has been solved, how long will it take for the orbit of the stellar simulator to be in place?" ”

Without any hesitation, Academician Wang answered this question with confidence.

"By the end of the year at the latest, I can show you a complete stellar simulator orbit!"
