Chapter VII Large-scale Construction Projects

After the recruitment of the new government was completed, a large number of works finally began.

Of course, Yu Yifeng will not simply repeat the Stalinist model, emphasizing heavy industry and ignoring light industry. The first thing he did when he took office was to improve people's living conditions.

This time, the project is called the "Great Construction Project", and the slogan is "Let everyone live in a house and live a good life"!

The machines in the factory are turning again, producing a steady stream of cement and steel. Workers are building their future homes with the fullest zeal.

This enthusiasm is very exaggerated, because the houses that are built are the ones they will buy later. People really have enough of living in tin houses, and they are very yearning for a decent house.

Houses with pure steel frame structures can be built very quickly, and can be completed in about a month, and most of these are laboratories and factories. Reinforced concrete structures are relatively slow, and it is possible from six months to a year.

However, people are not in a hurry, they can still wait for six months to a year, and they can just use it to save their salaries......

Fast forward a month, and everyone got their share of the new coin.

People excitedly walked into the business district and used this salary to buy their own daily necessities, including meat, vegetables, and a small amount of alcohol.

In fact, people's living standards do not necessarily rise compared to rationing. But people's happiness has magically risen because what they buy is self-chosen, not directly rationed by the government, which gives people a sense of freedom......

On this day, there is another big event. In everyone's expectation, two major projects have finally been completed!

The first is the "Wild Wolf Design Bureau", which is actually a large-scale scientific laboratory, and Professor Ding Yidong, the "father of the helium-3 nuclear bomb", is the director of the design bureau.

A large number of Chinese, Russians, and Ukrainians flocked to the Wolf Design Bureau.

The second is the "Tesla Institute", the general director of which is Dr. Felix, the "chief physicist of the lunar base".

Scientists are free to join any research institute, and of course, if they have the ability, they can also apply to set up their own research institutes, and many people do apply in this way.

But these two institutes are the largest and the best, and the more resources they receive.

There are three indicators allocated by the New Humanity Government to scientific research institutes: the energy index, the resource index, and the industrial index. As long as these indices are not exceeded, the institute can do whatever it wants, and do whatever it wants (except for the development of weapons).

It's a lot of freedom, and scientists are almost crazy, what is that? You don't need to think about the cost of doing the experiment, is this worth it?

What scientists fear most is that they don't have money. They often have a good idea, but they don't have the R&D funds, so they have to stop it. Well, now you don't need money to do experiments!

They finally felt the benefits of the planned economy for the development of science, and devoted themselves to their own undertakings.

They are all people who love fame, and those who can go to the moon base are not fame-seeking. It doesn't matter if you fail once or twice, but if you always fail, you can't afford to lose this person!

In the Wild Wolf Design Bureau, Professor Ding Yidong was really happy and crazy, he trembled all over his body and waved his arms fiercely twice. I finally don't have to think about any fucking expenses to do experiments, and that's what it's called cool!

He had the pleasure of letting the birds fly and the sea was wide and leaping with a fish, so he wrote "The ...... of the Ten Billion Tons of Nuclear Weapons Program" casually, and then thought about it and crossed it out again. He's still a little rational, now is not the time to do this.

He was determined that this old life would be sold to Yu Yifeng from now on!

From now on, there is no need to worry about funding, what a blessing for a scientist!

Dr. Felix certainly felt that way, but he was a standard English gentleman and kept his excitement to himself. At the end of the day, he was more than willing to dedicate his life to science......

In general, the Wolf Design Bureau is more famous than the Tesla Institute, and its ranking is higher.

Because Professor Ding Yidong has just designed a billion-ton helium-3 nuclear bomb, this nuclear bomb directly promoted the success of the Noah program, which is a well-known thing.

But Dr. Felix, the head of the Tesla Research Institute, is not covered, and as the chief physicist in the lunar base, his popularity is still very high. With the participation of many European and American scientists, the scientific research strength is also very strong.

Therefore, the two research institutes, which have a tendency to cooperate with each other and compete with each other, have attracted the attention of all the people as soon as they were established.

"Wolf Design Bureau, Physics Laboratory, S-Class Research Institute, Points: 6685"

"Tesla Research Institute, Physics Laboratory, S-Class Research Institute, Credits: 6233"

The points at the back represent the overall results of each institute, and the higher the score, the more indicators will be obtained in the next year. The first points, of course, are given according to the degree of contribution to Noah's plan.

If you are given a large number of indicators but no research results, then the points will be surpassed by the lab behind you, and the indicators will be reduced for the next year. For many scientists, it is unbearable.

This is also what people like to talk about the most after dinner, and people want to guess which research institute can be the first to develop epoch-making products, some in favor of Wolf and some in favor of Tesla......

The entire spaceship ushered in a period of prosperity. But their leader, Mr. Yu Yifeng, was having a headache and was troubled.

A person came to his office, and a report was placed on the table, and the person was pointing at Yu Yifeng and scolding.

"I told you a long time ago that we should pay attention to the construction of the ecosystem, and now that we are good, what do you say? If something happens, you're responsible for everyone! ”

"It's good that I found it early, otherwise, wouldn't it be all over?!"

It was the biologist Dr. Roman who was scolding, and he was really in a hurry. Why? Because the temperature inside the ship has risen.

Since the start of the major construction project, the temperature of their ship has started to rise slowly, and so far, it has risen by a full 2.2 degrees Celsius! Yes, the internal temperature began to rise, and the ship's cooling system was not enough.

A lot of industry, construction, a lot of mechanical, electrical, chemical...... In the end, it's all converted into heat, and the result is a rise in the ship's temperature.

Fortunately, it's only 26.3 degrees Celsius now, which is acceptable, and if it goes up to 30 degrees or 40 degrees after a while, maybe the entire spacecraft will become a sauna.

Don't think that space is more than minus 200 degrees Celsius and think that it is very cold, theoretically speaking, space belongs to a vacuum, and the insulation effect is better than a hot water bottle!

Because conduction and convection are not possible in a vacuum, heat transfer can only be carried out by radiation. However, this thermal radiation is really slow. The whole spaceship is a bit like a big thermos, which makes it difficult to dissipate heat.

In order to achieve a good heat dissipation effect, scientists specially designed a thermal radiation heat dissipation device outside the spacecraft, which can adjust the temperature of the spacecraft. However, its regulating effect is limited, and now there is too much heat generated inside to be adjusted, resulting in a higher and higher temperature inside.

Come to think of it, the whole ship is like a closed room, all dissipated by a window, which is still closed. Now a large number of machinery has begun to do work, what rice cooker, induction cooker is all turned on, can it not be hot?

"Alas, Doctor, I see, I see." Yu Yifeng smiled bitterly and nodded, he sighed, and also understood the seriousness of the problem, "Doctor, I will find someone to deal with the problem you said as soon as possible......." ”

This issue deserves attention...... However, the big construction project will not stop because of this problem.

"Dr. Roman, I've also thought about the big ecosystem...... I also want to have a lot of greenery, a lot of grass. But we don't have enough air, we don't have enough water, we don't have this condition! ”

"When we got to Mars, we replenished with air and water. I promise, I will pass all the plans you say! ”

After listening to Yu Yifeng's words, Dr. Roman finally nodded with satisfaction, "Then, you must solve this problem as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, I understand!" Yu Yifeng pondered as he thought.

To be honest, the Noah's ecosystem is too small, and the self-adjustment ability is too poor. Fortunately, I found it early...... Otherwise, it will be troublesome to wait until thirty or forty degrees.

If there is an ecosystem as large as the earth, there will be no problems such as temperature increases.

Therefore, the best solution is to build a large, balanced, self-regulating ecosystem. At present, the volume of human spaceships is less than 1/10,000, and there are still a lot of places that can be used, and it is completely feasible to build a large ecosystem.

In the final analysis, there are still not enough resources, although human beings have one billion tons of ore and 100 million tons of ice, but there are still too few to build a large ecosystem. How much water does it take for plants to survive? 100 million tons is simply not enough.

The most important thing is that humans don't have enough air, and they don't have enough soil, and most of the spaceship is vacuum, and it has to be filled with air for life to survive in it.

These problems can only be solved by Mars. Mars has mines, water, and air, and is at least much richer than the Moon.
