There was silence in the office.

A dozen or so researchers who had not yet officially joined the company looked at the young man who pushed open the door and walked in in disbelief.

This is their boss, the person in charge of this project?

Are they blinding the wrong one, or are they hallucinating? It's Kawajin who only won the Fields Medal this month?

Everyone was surprised, but for Xu Chuan's face, it was impossible for them to admit it, and they could only wonder if they had seen it wrong or hallucinated.

Last time, Huaguo won the first-ever Fields Medal, and the country's publicity efforts are amazing, even higher than previous Nobel Prize winners.

Whether it is TV news or hot searches on the Internet, they are all kinds of swiping screens.

In this case, how could they, the scientific research dogs, not know Xu Chuan, even if they are not in the same field, they can recognize it.

If it was Xu Chuan, no, if it was the god of Chuan, then it was completely possible for Han Jin to give them such a high treatment.

A Fields Medal winner, just a few official fellows, people don't care about it at all.

And if you can do research with a Fields Medal winner, who cares if you can successfully apply for a full researcher?

If this project comes to fruition, it doesn't matter if one, two, or even three works don't have their names, as long as they can be briefly mentioned in the project report, it is enough.

Follow a Fields Medalist doing research, it's properly gilded.

When it comes out in the future, whether it is a national university or a research institute or laboratory, they will rush to get it.

Formal researcher or something, don't worry about it at all.

At present, it is more important to find a way to stay!

......

Looking at the researchers with different expressions in the office, Xu Chuan sat down in the first place with a smile.

After coughing and pulling everyone's thoughts back, he spoke, "In addition to meeting with you, I will introduce myself first. Of course, I'm sure you all know me. ”

】

"My name is Xu Chuan, you can call me Professor Xu in the future."

At the end of the conversation, a younger researcher excitedly raised a question that everyone was concerned about.

"Kawajin, is this nuclear project we participated in really yours?"

As soon as this question came out, everyone cast their expectant eyes on Xu Chuan.

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "The nuclear energy β radiation energy aggregation and conversion mechanism technology project is actually not my project. ”

"It's a state-funded R&D project, and I'm just the person in charge."

When they heard the first sentence, the hearts of these researchers in the office tightened, and they couldn't help but hold their breath; But then the second sentence calmed everyone's hearts and breathed a long sigh of relief.

Kawajin is really naughty, so scaring people.

Xu Chuan didn't care about the reaction of these researchers, and he continued: "Although this is not my project, I will take full responsibility for managing it. ”

"In my opinion, this nuclear energy project does not need ten scientific researchers, according to my estimates, in the next six months, two to five people will be eliminated, and your performance will determine whether you go or stay."

"During the six-month probationary period, those who pass the performance can stay, and those who do not meet the standards will leave automatically."

"Of course, if you do well, it's possible to stay all."

"I hope that in half a year, I will still see you."

"Another ......"

Xu Chuan didn't say much, and when he came up, he directly said that he had the power of life and death, controlled the fate of everyone present, and erected some regulations.

It can't be helped, the main thing is that he's a little too young.

At less than twenty-one years old, even the youngest scientist is more than ten years younger than the others here.

The huge gap in age will definitely give rise to some different opinions in people's hearts.

Especially in Japan, it is difficult to change the social atmosphere and traditional culture and impressions.

He doesn't ask these researchers to have much innovation at the moment, and it is enough to be able to do things well according to his arrangement.

In short, it's what I arranged, you do it honestly, just don't make trouble.

He didn't want people on his team to be old, even though he had already screened them once during the interview.

Of course, if such a person really appears, he doesn't mind kicking it out.

Anyway, in China, if there is a lack of anything, there is no shortage of people, and if he kicks one out, it won't even take the next day to make up for it.

......

After explaining these things, Xu Chuan was assigned the first task before officially entering scientific research.

He glanced around the people in the office and said, "The theoretical basis for the nuclear energy β radiant energy aggregation and conversion mechanism technology project has been preliminarily completed on my side. ”

"Relevant papers and materials will be sent to you by Professor Han."

"Before you start your research, your task is to be fully familiar with the relevant papers and materials within one month."

"I believe that for all of you here, this should not be difficult."

"And in a month, I will conduct the first assessment of you, which is also the first key point to decide whether you can stay or not."

"Come on, everyone."

Hearing this, more than a dozen scientific researchers couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

A month to fully familiarize yourself with the theoretical basis of a project, even for a postdoc, is not a small pressure.

And the subsequent assessment made everyone's hearts lift.

If you don't pass the assessment, you'll be embarrassed.

......

Here, Xu Chuan is arranging the launch of the project.

On the other hand, thousands of miles away, Sujiang Province has also moved with the establishment of the "Nuclear Energy β Radiant Energy Aggregation and Conversion Mechanism Technology Project".

In Qidong City, which is relatively close to the magic capital, a wide area of more than 20,000 acres of land has been divided into coastal areas, which is used to build a research institute and a nuclear power plant.

All the residents in the 20,000-acre area will be relocated after the follow-up project has certain scientific research results and confirms that the nuclear waste can be reused.

Although the selection zone itself is relatively remote and the population density is not high, there are still thousands of residents involved.

After all, with the population density of the country, there is basically no uninhabited land in the coastal zone.

And the relocation of such a large number of people is a proper big project.

In fact, if it is simply to build a research institute and a nuclear power plant, the area will not be so large at all, and two or three thousand acres of land will be more than enough.

However, the project "Nuclear Energy β Radiation Energy Aggregation and Conversion Mechanism Technology" is not only about nuclear energy, but also about nuclear waste, which is the most dangerous thing in nuclear energy.

If the project is completed and it is finally confirmed that the nuclear waste can be reused, then the place will likely receive the radioactive nuclear waste generated by all the nuclear power plants in the country.

Nuclear power plants that have not yet begun to expand are more than 1,500 tons of nuclear waste each year.

Once expanded, it is not impossible for China to produce more than 10,000 tons of nuclear waste every year.

With so much nuclear waste, once an accident occurs, a radius of more than 10 kilometers may be a heavily polluted area.

However, if it is confirmed that the nuclear waste can be reused, the most likely thing is to re-establish a large waste disposal base in the no-man's land of the Taklamakan Desert in the west.

At that time, the country's nuclear waste will be transported there for centralized processing.

In addition to their own country, there is even the option to accept nuclear waste from some other countries.

Of course, this will definitely require an exchange of interests.

Dealing with nuclear waste, this kind of troublesome thing, if you don't pay something, will I let you ship it?

Even if the time comes, nuclear waste will no longer be an intractable pollutant, but an energy source for power generation, and it will not be possible for you to send it directly.

As for how to choose, this matter has nothing to do with Xu Chuan.

.......

At the beginning of September, colleges and universities across the country officially opened one after another.

In the capital, Xu Chuan dragged Xu Xiao's suitcase and sent this girl to Shuimu University.

Mizuki University invited him to attend the opening ceremony a few days later, but he politely declined.

He didn't have that much time to get these things, and after sending Xiaoxiao to school, he rushed back to Sujiang non-stop and went to the project base that was being pioneered.

From the official order from above, to Xu Chuan's arrival at the project base, it took less than a week.

But in the course of a week, the originally planned remote area was already full of all kinds of construction equipment and industrial vehicles, and at the same time, there were all kinds of transport trucks and construction vehicles on the road.

The person responsible for the construction of this research institute is Huaguo Nuclear Industry Construction Group Co., Ltd.

The day after the official order was issued, the state-owned enterprise won the bid directly at an astonishing speed, completed all the processes, and then began to arrange personnel to enter the site to make preliminary construction preparations.

The reason why the institute was built in Qidong City is that it is close to the sea, and the nuclear power plant needs a lot of water for cooling.

On the other hand, this place is close to the magic city, and after the construction of the research institute is completed, Xu Chuan can quickly transfer over.

In addition, Sujiang has experience in building large-scale nuclear industry facilities.

Huaguo Nuclear Industry Construction Group Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Huaguo Nuclear Industry Construction Group Co., Ltd., is located in Sujiang. It has undertaken the construction of the "two bombs and one boat" test base, as well as many important nuclear and military projects.

In addition, Qidong is not far from Jinling, so it is convenient to go back and forth.

After all considerations, the institute was finally selected here.

In fact, Xu Chuan wanted to build the institute directly in the magic capital at the beginning.

But the demons don't belong to Su Jiang, and it's a bit troublesome to communicate and manage. And the magic capital doesn't have that much for him to get this.

If something goes wrong during the experiment, it will also have an impact on the economy of the magic capital.

After all, it is difficult to reassure people about projects related to nuclear radiation, even if they are only small projects such as research institutes and laboratories.

Although the billion-dollar scientific research project is huge, it is not worth mentioning at all compared to the GDP of the magic capital.

......

Cars came and went on the construction site, smoke and dust billowed out, and the sound of excavators and cement trucks roared and clanged.

Xu Chuan first met with 'Luo Linsong', the person in charge of managing the construction of the construction site, and after a few words of greeting, the two entered a temporary factory together.

In the room, a middle-aged and elderly man was prostrate at the table, looking at the photos and drawings in front of the table, frowning and thinking about something.

"Qi Gong, Professor Xu is here." Luo Linsong, a middle-aged man in charge of construction, greeted the middle-aged and elderly man at the table.

Hearing the voice, the middle-aged and elderly man with gold-rimmed glasses quickly raised his head, and his eyes fell on Xu Chuan's body.

On the side, Luo Linsong continued: "This is Qi Zhongxing, the chief engineer sent by Huaguo Nuclear Industry Construction Group, and Qi Gong is now doing preliminary research and is responsible for designing the entire research institute and the nuclear power plant next to it. Professor Xu, if you have any needs here, you can directly mention them to Qi Gong. ”

Xu Chuan stepped forward with a smile and stretched out his right hand to beckon, "Hello Qi Gong." ”

Qi Zhongxing stood up, walked over with a smile and shook his hand, and said, "It's really better to see than to hear, Professor Xu is younger and more promising than the legend." ”

After a few pleasantries, Xu Chuan got to the point: "Qi Gong, regarding the construction of the research institute, I have a request here. ”

Qi Zhongxing nodded, and said with a serious face: "You say." ”

"First of all, I need to study that there is a room in the ground floor that covers an area of at least 300 square meters." Xu Chuan said.

"This room is used for nuclear waste reuse experiments. Therefore, it needs to be strongly sealed, and lead is used in the structure of the room to make a central sandwich protection to prevent the nuclear radiation from nuclear waste from leaking out to the outside in case of an accident. ”

"Secondly, in the wall of the central room, except for the bottom, the other three sides need to leave a layer of about two to three centimeters of back gaps, and then need to fill in some materials."

Qi Zhongxing thought for a while and replied: "These are all right, I have already considered safety, not only a separate experimental room, but also the central laboratory will be built with materials doped with lead plates to ensure the safety of personnel to the greatest extent." ”

"As for the retention layer you mentioned, this can be done with a double-story construction, and there is no big problem."

After a pause, he then asked, "I just don't know how much radiation intensity the material used in your experiment is, I need to arrange the corresponding thickness of the lead layer." ”

Xu Chuan: "Let's deal with the spent fuel that has been used by nuclear reactors in nuclear power plants." ”

Hearing this, Qi Zhongxing frowned and said, "If this is the case, the thickness of the interlayer lead layer in the central laboratory probably needs to be more than three centimeters. You're just doing experiments here, and you need to use nuclear waste with such a high level of radiation? ”

Xu Chuan nodded and said, "Different nuclear waste is disposed of in different ways, and this is a very dangerous experiment, so let's follow the highest standards." ”

Qi Zhongxing nodded and said solemnly: "No problem, I will write this down in particular, and you can personally accept it when the time comes." ”

Although he did not know the details of the experiment, he knew all too well how strong the spent fuel rods used by the nuclear reactor were.

If such a material is touched by ordinary people's hands, it basically can't last for a week, and it will have to bleed and rot the internal organs and die.

Experimenting with nuclear waste is a scary thing to think about.

If you're not careful, you're completely finished.
