Academician Chang Huaxiang came very quickly, and he joined the company very quickly.

After chatting with Xu Chuan that day, he signed a contract in the afternoon and entered the Xinghai Research Institute, where he served as the technical director of aerospace engineering.

For the airborne landing of the old academician, no one was unconvinced.

At least the middle and upper echelons of the Aerospace Research Institute have more or less heard about the fame and deeds of this old gentleman.

If you are not familiar with this name, then anyone has heard of the Chang'e lunar exploration project series, and this old academician is one of the main designers of the first and second phase of the project.

With this old gentleman's decades of experience and ability, there is absolutely no problem in controlling the space program.

Leaving the relevant work of aerospace engineering to this old academician, Xu Chuan no longer has to worry about related things.

After all, aerospace is not his specialty, although the electromagnetic propulsion system of the aerospace engine was designed, but the foundation is actually based on controllable nuclear fusion technology.

As for how to design the space shuttle, how to plan the manned space route, and what preparations need to be made for the moon landing, he did not know much about these.

It's better to leave professional matters to professionals.

As for himself, in addition to not being a professional in this field, he also has a lot of other work to do.

After all, a person's energy is limited, even if he is young now, but time is the fairest thing, whether it is a prince or a general, or a cloth cloth, everyone has only twenty-four hours a day.

For Xu Chuan, it is the best choice to reasonably allocate the limited time to different tasks and devote the limited energy to the most suitable field for himself.

Whatever can be done by someone else, can be done by professionals.

For example, the management of the research institute, whether it is the Xinghai Research Institute or the Chuanhai Research Institute, he has not interfered much.

In the Energy Research Institute, before the assembly of the miniaturized fusion reactor is completed, the Huaxing fusion device has always been the most powerful experimental object.

By adjusting the magnetic field strength of the outer field coil and the permanent magnet group, the size of the plasma iris in the reactor chamber is compressed to the volume of the small reactor to simulate the operation of the small reactor.

Although it will not be exactly the same as that of a miniaturized fusion reactor, at least a large part of the data can be obtained.

This will greatly help to increase the power and output of miniaturized fusion reactors.

The output power of 170MW is honestly not very safe in Xu Chuan's opinion.

Although the output power of the MW level is enough to bring the propulsion of the electromagnetic propulsion system to the KN level, for the aerospace engine and the space shuttle, the thrust of the KN class is actually not very high.

If it is used in ordinary civil airliners to fly in the atmosphere, it is completely sufficient.

However, if it is used on the space shuttle and it is necessary to carry large-mass scientific research equipment and other items out of the earth's gravity into space, it is better to improve it as much as possible.

On the other side, Virginia, off the Atlantic coast.

On the banks of the Potomac River on the border between Washington, D.C., and Virginia, the headquarters of the world-famous CIJU is located.

Hidden under this huge complex of more than 200 acres is the world's most advanced intelligence-gathering organization.

In his office, William Joseph Burns sat in an office chair, holding a stare document in his hand, reading it carefully.

This is a piece of information about the fusion energy company in that country that was sent from South Korea.

As the head of the four major intelligence agencies, the amount of information and intelligence to be processed every day can be said to be astronomical.

Of course, the information that can be sent to this office has been screened a lot, and it can be said that every piece of information may affect the layout and development of the United States.

And the fusion energy company, which has transformed from the Qixia fusion project that has completed the controlled nuclear fusion technology, undoubtedly has such strength.

In particular, in the past year, the power transmission system promoted by the other party to Southeast Asia and East Asia has had a significant impact on their layout in Asia.

Including South Korea's power export contract with the other side only two months ago, it is a serious damage to the deployment of the first island chain.

But in the face of cheaper energy, it may be difficult for any country to resist such an temptation.

Just as I was having a headache about what to do with these things, there was a knock at the door.

Putting down the papers in his hand, William Joseph Burns looked at the door of his office and said, "Come in." ”

The door to the office was pushed open, and an intelligence officer, about fifty years old, walked in briskly, holding a brown paper document bag.

"Director, the latest intelligence, our information personnel deployed in the Huawei country have collected an important piece of information, and the reason for the delay in the launch of the aircraft carrier codenamed 03 may be that it is transforming the power system."

The middle-aged intelligence officer quickly opened his mouth to report, and at the same time handed over the brown paper document bag in his hand.

Hearing this, William Joseph Burns frowned, took the file bag and asked, "Transform the power system?" Are they ready to go nuclear? Any more detailed news? ”

The middle-aged intelligence officer hesitated for a moment, and said in an uncertain tone: "Judging from the intelligence information, it may be a fusion reactor. ”

"Fusion reactors?" William Joseph Burns, the director of the Intelligence Bureau, smiled and said in a somewhat mocking tone: "Are they going to move that Dawn to the 03 aircraft carrier?" ”

"That's a big guy, are they going to get all the compartments open?"

China has taken the lead in realizing controllable nuclear fusion technology, which has naturally attracted the attention of various countries.

There is nothing in the world that can be completely secret, although the key technology to achieve controlled nuclear fusion is still not available, but the general information of the dawn fusion device, such as the volume, size, operation mode data and other basic data, is basically controlled by various countries.

The size of the aircraft carrier is indeed huge, but it is difficult to cram that Daybreak into even a smaller fusion reactor.

After all, the structure of the aircraft carrier is not like an ordinary ship cruise ship, although its size is large, but the internal space is a bit like a building, which is divided into layers by the structure.

If you insist on stuffing a huge fusion reactor into it, it will undoubtedly be a huge damage to the structure and force of the aircraft carrier, and it will instantly reduce the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier by an order of magnitude or even several orders of magnitude.

Standing on the opposite side, the middle-aged intelligence officer took a deep breath and said suspiciously: "There is intelligence feedback, that Xinghai Research Institute led by Professor Xu is suspected to have made a major breakthrough in miniaturized and controllable nuclear fusion technology!" ”

"The reason why their 03 carrier has been waiting may be that they are waiting for a small fusion reactor!"

Hearing the news, William Joseph Burns's pale green pupils instantly contracted into a poisonous snake, like a poisonous snake, his hands propped up on the table, staring at the intelligence officer in front of him and quickly asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”

"It's not necessarily reliable, but from the reports of the agents currently deployed in Jinling, the security level of the Xinghai Research Institute has been raised by more than one notch, and those who are standing guard have a military atmosphere, and the relevant information is in the intelligence bag in your hand."

Hearing this, William Joseph Burns took a deep breath and quickly took out the intelligence information from the brown paper bag that he had just opened.

The report is only a thin page, and it doesn't contain much information.

It is suspected that the Xinghai Research Institute has made a breakthrough in miniaturized and controllable nuclear fusion technology, the output power is unknown, the estimated volume can be reduced to about 6-8 meters in diameter and about 5 meters in height, and the technical route is unknown (it may be related to the spiral stone-7X of the Planck Plasma Research Institute)"

Putting down the report in his hand, Director William looked at the intelligence officer standing opposite, frowned and asked, "Isn't there any more detailed information?" ”

The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "For the time being, we can only collect this information, and the other party's secrecy work is very good." ”

Putting down the report in his hand, William Joseph Burns pinched the bridge of his nose and frowned in thought.

The breakthrough of miniaturized and controllable nuclear fusion technology is really a surprise news.

For them, this is definitely the worst piece of information.

A fusion reactor with a diameter of 6-8 meters and a height of about 5 meters can definitely be crammed into an aircraft carrier.

It is conceivable that the release of an aircraft carrier equipped with a fusion reactor will have a significant impact on the international pattern of the entire world.

But is it really possible?

As soon as the thought in his mind turned, William Joseph Burns thought of another possibility.

Could it be a smoke bomb released by the other party or something?

After all, it has only been a year since controlled nuclear fusion was realized, and it has taken a year to complete a breakthrough in miniaturization, which sounds unreliable.

And according to their understanding, Professor Xu has basically spent the whole year studying technology in the field of mathematics and aerospace, and he has not had much time to study the miniaturization of controlled nuclear fusion.

However, if it was really him who made a move, it was not impossible.

If this information is true, then they really missed the best opportunity.

By the end of July, they should have shot down the plane bound for St. Petersburg!

After thinking for a while, William Joseph Burns came back to his senses, took a deep breath, looked at the intelligence officer standing in front of him, and said:

"No matter what you do, no matter whether this information is true or not, I need more accurate information and information!"

"In addition, increase the monitoring of Jinling and the 03 aircraft carrier, increase the allocation of personnel, increase investment funds, and try to buy the other party's scientific research personnel and relevant insiders. No matter what happened in Jinling, or what the Xinghai Research Institute was doing now, don't miss any clues! ”

"Yes!"
