If the difficulty of the destroyer and surface-to-air missile mission is five-star, the difficulty of the task of mushroom lone egg is hell-level.

As the head of the Department of Physics at Beijing University, Professor Rao Jianru is undoubtedly an authoritative figure in physics in China.

The strange thing is that Gao Jianwu has no impression of Professor Rao Jianru's reputation in his original time and space, even if he is one of the current masters of physics in China, and has the experience of studying abroad at the University of Chicago and Princeton University, but Professor Rao brought proud disciples and several assistants this time, so that Gao Jianwu immediately trusted Professor Rao very much.

That is the famous Mr. Wu (Wu) Dayou, if everyone is not very clear about this person, then Mr. Wu Dayou's other two Nobel laureates Li (Zhengdao) and Yang (Zhenning), two physicists, and the famous scientist Mr. Zhu (Guangya) will definitely be known to many people.

In the list of 4 schools, Gao Jianwu saw that this family was now gathered neatly.

Even if these people basically have no possibility of studying abroad now, they are likely to become unsung heroes who have been incognito for decades under Gao Jianwu's banner, but from the perspective of these people's geniuses in physics, their abilities will not be buried, but will become the fathers of science and technology on the road to the rejuvenation of China!

In Professor Rao's team, Gao Jianwu also saw famous figures such as Zheng Jiaxiang and Qian Qiang, but the difference is that Wu Dayou and Qian Qiang can already take on the role of the project leader in one aspect and serve as one of Professor Rao's deputies. In addition, those third-generation young physicists who had just graduated from graduate school had just rejoiced at the moment when Gao Jianwu and the others regained the old land occupied by the little devils.

For such a team echelon, Gao Jianwu can't find fault with anything anymore, relatively speaking, the talents who came back from abroad in physics are not as great as the achievements of these people.

Of course, it is not that they do not have ability and talent, but they have not been given too many opportunities, and if they lose their participation in the major event of the revival of China, they will lose the great opportunity to leave a name in history.

Therefore, even if some people lose the opportunity to win the Nobel Prize in the future, it is worth it to be able to participate in the R&D team of Mushroom Eggs now.

However, even Gao Jianwu felt difficult to start this team task, because he couldn't say a lot of things clearly, so he could only try his best to introduce the ins and outs of the mushroom egg to a simpler time, and he didn't know what to say any more.

According to our reliable intelligence, in the Americas, Oppenheimer and others proposed the Manhattan Project, and together with scientists from the United Kingdom, they went all out to research new weapons with great destructive uranium. And they have been researched to the verge of success, many pre-technologies and experiments have been completed, the prototype has been successfully exploded, and they are doing their best to weaponize and put this human demon into practice. ”

After meeting with Professor Rao Jianru, the leader of the team, he entered the topic after greeting him.

"We have obtained the drawings of this new weapon, important data for testing, drawings of uranium and plutonium mushroom lone egg prototypes and their detonation devices that have been successfully studied, process design drawings related to uranium-235 and plutonium refining and heavy water refining, and process design drawings for equipment production.

At the same time, they have also made great progress in the use of atomic power generation in this regard, using the huge energy emitted by atomic fission to obtain a new way of power generation, which is not only a peaceful use of energy, but also a reliable new power for the ship, which will greatly improve the endurance of the ship.

Once they are allowed to complete these studies, they will have a huge advantage, and the purpose of our existence4 is to narrow the gap with the world's top level, and we must synchronize with these powers, and even achieve the explosive success of the mushroom egg in advance.

This project is Project 453. Later, Professor Rao took the information we had obtained back to study and formulate a feasible action plan.

This is a top-secret project, and will be classified as top secret for management in the future, except for Professor Rao, I hope that the personnel who can master the full set of information will not exceed the core team of 10 people, of which the list of core team members will be handed over to me for personal review. ”

As expected, Professor Rao Jianru was stunned for more than ten seconds after listening to Gao Jianwu's words.

"Mr. Gao, do you mean that the primary task of our 4 institutes is to research atomic weapons?" Professor Rao Jianru confirmed.

"Yes, the simultaneous or preemptive realization of atomic energy weapons will be one of the cornerstones of our Huaxia's foothold in the current world. Of course, this is also one of the most difficult topics in our research task, Professor Rao, you have a heavy burden.

However, I can confirm to you that the technical route and related manufacturing process design, principle and parameter data handed over to you are very reliable, as long as you can understand and achieve this information thoroughly, this goal will definitely be achieved. ”

Gao Jianwu affirmed.

"Mr. Gao, I can understand the great significance of atomic energy weapons, according to my personal understanding, if atomic energy weapons are really realized, it will be subversive for future wars, the energy released by atomic energy is too huge, and its destructive power is likely to be catastrophic if it is applied to weapons."

Professor Rao is a professor who is over half a hundred years old, and he quickly returned to normalcy and said.

As one of the top talents in physics in this era, he had learned some information and knew some ideas for atomic weapons, but he did not expect that Gao Jianwu could get such world-class intelligence information.

"However, we don't know anything about the development of atomic weapons right now, and frankly, we can't even assess how easy it will be to achieve it right now."

Professor Rao said sincerely.

"It doesn't matter, after reading the materials I have here, Professor Rao, I think I can basically solve 90% of Professor Rao's problems. Today, after I have handed over some of the information to you for study, we will find time to talk about this matter. Gao Jianwu said confidently.

"It's just that these materials can only be read in the closed laboratory of my top-secret research institute, and it is absolutely not allowed to be taken out of this laboratory, even if the person in charge is not allowed to bring out a note-like note. In this regard, I would also like to ask for Professor Rao's understanding. Gao Jianwu emphasized.

In fact, if it weren't for the cultivation of talents, Gao Jianwu would have wanted to concentrate these people in a sparsely populated place, after all, this matter is too important.

The information he gave was definitely the top-secret information that was closest to the success of the mushroom egg in this time and space, and its value was simply immeasurable. For him, he could learn about their genius from the perspective of future time and space, but he couldn't confirm their loyalty.

"I can understand, Mr. Gao, regarding the secrecy system for weapons and equipment research, when our institute was established, there were unified requirements from top to bottom. Each researcher has been trained and educated on the confidentiality system, and as the head of the institute, I will take the lead in complying with this part of the work. Professor Rao said very seriously.

Gao Jianwu divided the technical data that burst out of the system into three categories, and at present, other countries have and are in the world's leading technical data, and Gao Jianwu is listed as the third category of confidential information, which can be taken back to his own research institute for safekeeping and reference, and is not allowed to be leaked to the outside.

For materials that have been leading the world level for 5 years or more, Gao Jianwu is classified as the second category of confidential information, and there will be independent security and data room control, which will be consulted inside the data room and not allowed to be taken out of the data room. Personnel who have access to such information will be guarded as key confidential personnel to prevent being kidnapped or rebelled by the enemy.

For the information that is more than 10 years ahead of the world level, Gao Jianwu is listed as the first type of confidential information, which is the highest level of confidentiality, only in the confidential laboratory controlled by Gao Jianwu himself, for a very small number of core R & D backbones for development and reading, all personnel who contact the data, will have 24-hour guardianship to ensure the safety of the data and contact personnel.

In the current complex society, Gao Jianwu integrated the two most elite forces under his command into two lines of light and dark to do the security work of this research.

One line is that Song Tiecheng's assault brigade has set up a special guard team with some backbones, which is responsible for the 24-hour guard of each research institute and the special personnel of the secret room, all of which carry out their tasks in accordance with the security and confidentiality regulations, completely independent of the research institute, and directly under the command of Gao Jianwu.

The other line is to transfer some of the backbone personnel from Hu Minghua's intelligence system to become a secret department, which hides and protects key personnel involved in secrets, and also monitors all external espionage operations.

Through the light and dark lines, although it is not foolproof, but for now, it is enough for the time being.

On the first day, Professor Rao went to check the information provided by Gao Jianwu alone, but only one day later, Professor Rao was completely shocked, he was shocked by the information obtained by Gao Jianwu, but there were many things that even Professor Rao couldn't understand, so Professor Rao found Gao Jianwu and applied to bring Wu Dayou and Qian Qiang, the two capable generals, to read and discuss together.

After all, these two men have studied more in atomic energy than he did.

Gao Jianwu naturally agreed with the research of this trio, and joked, it was the real mushroom egg refining and manufacturing materials that were exploded by the system, and it was definitely not something that could be made by one person, and more people would inevitably come in to learn in the future.

Now, they need to have a preliminary understanding of this information, and then formulate a feasibility plan and budget for how to continue to operate the process according to the above in the future.

After a week of reading and discussing with each other, the three of them each found Gao Jianwu together with thick black circles.

"Mr. Gao, we confirm that the information you provide should be able to achieve a megaton TNT-level atomic energy weapon in accordance with the above requirements and technical routes." Professor Rao said in an extremely excited tone.

"These materials have a very mature research roadmap and related design solutions, and our current state of the art can be realized on the basis of this data."

"Now, the main problem we are facing, one is uranium ore, we need a lot of uranium ore, in neutron reflection conditions, we need high-purity uranium-235 with a critical mass of about 15 kilograms, and in uranium ore, natural uranium-235 accounts for 0.72%, a piece of uranium-235 for an atomic weapon needs 3,000 tons of uranium ore to be refined, we have not found this ore yet."

"Second, we need to refine uranium-235, and we need a large number of high-performance centrifuges, and at present, it seems that at least tens of thousands of centrifuges can quickly refine the weapons-grade uranium-235 we need.

Third, the application of our nuclear reactor will use a large amount of heavy water, which consumes a lot of energy to obtain, according to the description on the data, we need nearly 50,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity to produce 1 kilogram of heavy water, which is very difficult for our energy supply now!

And the above problems, boil down to the cost of research and development is very high. ”

Professor Rao: They are worthy of being the top physicists in China in this era, and they have understood a lot of things in such a short period of time.

"None of this is a big deal." Gao Jianwu had long expected this, "The problem of uranium ore, we have already had early mining in the British territory of Burma, and the first batch of 10,000 tons of uranium ore has been shipped back to China more than 4,000 tons, which will be purified in Shengjing." In the future of domestic uranium mining, there are already a number of exploration teams in the target area to carry out exploration work, and the supply of 10,000 tons of uranium ore in the next year is guaranteed.

The second problem, the production of centrifuges, Jinyang Heavy Industry can fully cooperate, after the first prototype is manufactured, we start production at the same time in Jinyang Heavy Industry, Hanyang Heavy Industry and Shengjing Heavy Industry.

The third problem, heavy water production, we will build a purification plant near the Fengman Hydropower Station, and out of the 560,000 installed capacity, we will allocate three sets of 210,000 units of electricity to supply to the heavy water plant separately for heavy water purification. ”

These things have no technical content, Gao Jianwu has been prepared for a long time, and even considered it when he led the expeditionary force to fight for the first time.

After listening to Gao Jianwu's words, Professor Rao was shocked again.

He didn't know when Gao Jianwu obtained the information he provided.

But according to his understanding, the emergence of these technologies will not be too early, after all, this is one of the most cutting-edge disciplines in this time and space, and there is basically not much public information now, and Gao Jianwu can get the core process design and raw material refining technology.

That's not all, Gao Jianwu even began to prepare for this earlier, taking the uranium mine into account in advance.

That's terrible!

"Then we don't have too many obstacles, the experimental site, we recommend choosing an inaccessible desert to carry out simulated explosion experiments, and we also need to send people to investigate suitable places in this regard. After all, according to the description of this information, the radiation contamination left by uranium fission lasts for a long time and the degree of harm is very large, and our experimenters now also need to take the lead in completing the research and construction of personal radiation protection measures and laboratory radiation protection facilities according to this information. ”

Although Gao Jianwu had a feeling of being wise and close to a demon, Professor Rao would only feel lucky, and he made the last two requests.

Gao Jianwu naturally agreed.

Especially in the area of personal protection, Gao Jianwu also put forward new requirements for Professor Rao, you must know that the core scientific and technological workers who study these mass killers will be national warriors in the future, and each of them is a valuable asset.

In the original time and space, due to various reasons, the protection failed, resulting in the untimely death of a group of scientific and technological fathers, causing huge losses.

In this time and space, Gao Jianwu must prevent such a tragedy from happening.
