Duke sent away the people from the Southern Nuclear Energy and exchanged information about the visit with Professor Zhu Yunqian, who had heard the news, and Professor Zhu could not do anything about the situation in front of him, and now the system is like this, and it is not something that can be reversed by one or two people.

Even if the big man at the level of vice chairman of the military came forward and was pushed back, how could it be broken from the vice ministerial-level state-owned enterprise of Southern Nuclear Energy.

"There are some things, monopoly is a good thing, it is a kind of protection for the national economy and people's livelihood, such as food, this kind of thing cannot be left to speculation by individuals, resulting in excessive fluctuations in the market, and must float in an orderly manner under the control of the state." Professor Zhu Yunqian mentioned this matter and said with great feeling.

"However, for the development of new technologies and new technologies, it is not possible to achieve state monopoly, which is completely detrimental to the development of science and technology, and in this regard, the state should appropriately open up and support" He is a scientific researcher in the system, and he really has too much experience of these domestic restrictions.

"The telecommunications industry is a best example, when everything in the telecommunications industry was strictly controlled by the state, the introduction of domestic telecommunications equipment into seven countries and eight systems was messy, and the price was surprisingly expensive, in this case, the masses wanted to install a telephone, not only needed to pay extremely high installation fees, but also had to wait a long time to be able to get on the wheel."

"As a result, the private sector was later released to enter the communications equipment manufacturing industry, and soon through the introduction and absorption of foreign technology, it took more than 20 years to catch up with the world level, and the price of domestic communication equipment almost fell to the price of cabbage. It's all mobile, telecom begging you to use. That's the power of openness. ”

"I think the energy should be like this, although now for wind power, solar energy and other marginal energy industries are liberalized, but for the research of nuclear energy is still too dead, except for Huaxia University of Science and Technology has a team to do complete research, almost all of the others are state-owned research institutions, but many research institutions are superficial, almost just messing up.

Research institutions with the ability and ideas want to conduct more in-depth research, but it is difficult to support them in terms of funding, and there are many private funds that want to come in, but no one can get in without a suitable return on investment and policy support.

Lotus pile I personally think is a major breakthrough in China's energy industry, such an achievement, it stands to reason that the state should introduce policies to support, but my report has been on for a long time, and now there is no wind on it, the only movement is to suspend the negotiation of the introduction of new nuclear power plants. ”

When Duke heard Professor Zhu Yunqian say this, he realized that Professor Zhu had done a lot of things for himself behind the scenes. But before the results came out, Professor Zhu didn't mention a word, and he couldn't help but be greatly moved, this is the practice of old-school scientists, and there is always much more to do than to say.

"Professor Zhu, if you hadn't said so today, I wouldn't have known that you had done so much work for the promotion of the lotus pile, thank you so much." Duke said gratefully, "To put it mildly, money is actually a number for me now, and it stands to reason that it doesn't matter if this achievement is handed over to the state, but this is not a sustainable path." ”

"To be honest, I am personally very dissatisfied with the first generation of Lotus Reactor, and I am far from the expectation of the simulation test, the maximum output power, after my calculation and prediction should be between 600MW and 800MW, the design is conservative, to ensure a stable output of 600MW, so the first generation of Lotus Reactor will probably have 300MW, 600MW two types of commercial reactors come out.

To develop the second-generation Lotus stack, it takes a lot of money to support it, so I have to seek some income to continue the research, and I believe that in my hands, the research and development of the fourth-generation advanced commercial reactor will be better than in the hands of anyone else. ”

Don't look at Duke's current income, but for the research of a new reactor type nuclear power plant, it is indeed a very frightening thing to consume money, the first generation of the Lotus pile is supported by the golden finger of Billem, and Duke almost did not spend much effort to launch the research of MIT.

But now that Billem's golden finger is gone, to develop a new reactor type, it has to rely on Duke to re-study on the basis of the first generation, so the manpower and material resources invested in this way are simply incalculable.

In order to speed up the pace of research, Duke has decided to further expand the Lotus reactor base and establish a nuclear energy research center.

"Yes, money is not everything, but no money is absolutely impossible," Professor Zhu sighed, "Project No. 10 also relies on your financial support to have such an elegant and efficient lotus pile base that can be used." The highly intelligent and almost impeccable monitoring system of this lotus pile is also built by funds. ”

The construction of the lotus reactor uses a lot of expensive monitoring instruments, and a large part of these things are impossible to use in the finalized commercial reactor, because most of them are for research purposes, and the accuracy requirements are very different from those of commercial operation.

Therefore, even if the instruments and meters that realize the same monitoring function, due to different accuracy, the things used in the lotus pile may be several times or even dozens of times that of the future commercial pile.

Duke wants to develop the second-generation Lotus reactor, and it is obvious that it will have to improve in all aspects such as power, maybe starting with 100MW or 200MW. In this way, the requirements for many things will be raised to a new level, and the investment can only be more than doubled compared to the first generation.

Even if Duke can call on SAL or Duke Heavy Industries to complete it, but without the support of huge profits, this research is a bottomless pit, who can continue to support it.

Therefore, taking Duke's results for free or for a small fee is a disastrous consequence for further research on this lotus heap, in every respect.

Some people may say that the relevant departments have obtained this achievement, and they can naturally organize manpower to further develop and improve, and those who think so can refer to the history of domestic nuclear power development, and we have introduced basically all the mainstream reactor types in the world for the second generation of reactors, but until now, these reactor types have not been fully localized.

Even the nuclear power plants of the sticks have begun to be commercialized, and our domestic nuclear power plant construction has to continue to rely on foreign technology.

Just as Linux has been open source for many years, many so-called self-developed operating systems in China still stay in the improvement of the interface and installation, and the introduction and absorption of domestic nuclear power plants is actually the same thing.

Even China does not dare to promote large-scale commercial use, and it is purely nonsense to mention completely independent intellectual property rights.

It's just that in the face of the rather rigid nuclear energy situation in China, even old-school scientists like Professor Zhu can only turn a blind eye and do nothing.
