Chapter 576: It's better to enjoy
The "they" in Tsushima's mouth are obviously the IAEA organizers who took advantage of the clean-up operation.
Although the IAEA is declared to be a purely loss-making operation, the authorities of the island country next to it can see it clearly.
The first is that the more than $2 billion in funds raised was distributed to the victims at all, and the money was barely enough to cover all the expenses until the emergency support rescue team was evacuated from the control area.
Then there is the use of nuclear bombs as a gimmick, using the privileges of the observation area to attract tourists to buy packages, and the charm of nuclear bombs is enough to attract large groups of people willing to spend huge sums of money on them.
It's not okay for ordinary people to drive a ship into it by themselves, the best areas of the open sea are controlled by the IAEA, and it is impossible for a ship to sneak in without their permission, but the three fleets of the strongest force of Blue Star are blockading, and no one dares to break in without a long eye.
After initial refusals, protests, and fruitless struggles, the authorities of the island countries began to think about how they could benefit from it, and they obtained a passage permit for some areas off the coast of Fu Island in the name of Jianghu Electric Power Company.
Then they also started to sell tickets like crazy, and anyway, as many ships on the sea could squeeze in.
At this time, they have a local advantage compared to the IAEA, but they can mobilize more ships, and Tsushima Shouichi can only know how much benefit it will be with a little calculation.
This is still just for tourists, in fact, the potential consumption power in the country is even greater.
Except for a very small number of witnesses, the people of Japan have never seen a real nuclear explosion, not even a ballistic missile attack, because the closer it is naturally more convenient to observe, but it is not as fanfare as foreign tourists come to advertise.
So that's why Hatoji Nakayama publicly endorsed the IAEA cleanup without any hindrance, and the lawmakers were busy jumping into this new business opportunity, as for the image issue? Then I can only ask the person in charge to bow and apologize afterwards.
Nakayama looked at the shameless insect in front of him silently, and finally couldn't help but shout:
"Tsushima-kun, you should be ashamed of the people!"
"But you only got the shipping company you formed yesterday to get a permit."
Tsushima Shouichi's answer was almost seamless, and immediately made the rest of Nakayama Hatoji's words blocked from his mouth.
There was only sincere eye contact between the two, and Nakayama finally couldn't pretend anymore.
"I have taken on the most responsibility and must be compensated as I deserve!"
"Understood...... It will also benefit your aerospace technical cooperation program, and when our astronauts go into space on Tanegashima, the people will be able to understand your plight! ”
This sentence made Nakayama Hatoji quite useful, touched his chest and sighed:
"It's all for the sake of the whole people, and it's right to bear some infamy!"
……
Together.
"You're here to replace the ignition mechanism of the hydrogen bomb with a laser?"
As the general director of the EAST project, Fu Mingdong was very surprised by these visitors today.
As a fully superconducting tokamak nuclear fusion experimental device on the same level as ITER, EAST can be said to be in a leading position in the world, and most of the EAST teams are young.
The average age of today's visitors is much older, and among them is a heavyweight and Yu Min, who came in a wheelchair — not because of his legs, but just to save some energy.
The others are also from the Academy of Nuclear Sciences, and their scope of work is clearly not very close to that of EAST.
EAST is to lead the energy revolution and bring humanity into a new era, and the business of the Academy of Nuclear Sciences is to find a way to bring the world back to the Stone Age.
Following Yu Min was a middle-aged man under the age of fifty, who introduced himself as Ai Quan.
Yu Min: "You are pursuing the power of the sun, and so are we, so there will be a lot of common topics. ”
Ai Quan then explained:
"We are designing a new nuclear bomb with a yield of 100 million tons, but the traditional method is nothing more than superimposing raw materials, and we want to find a more efficient and cleaner way."
In the previous joint mining bidding project, the five parties reached an agreement to test the study of a 200 million ton equivalent super hydrogen bomb, and then the parties immediately launched relevant plans.
Simply increasing the yield is not a difficult task, and the similar configuration of the three-phase bomb can be superimposed almost infinitely.
The original hydrogen bomb was to put a layer of fusion reactants outside the atomic bomb, and the three-phase bomb was superimposed with a layer of uranium-235 on this basis, and the explosion went through three processes of fission-fusion-fission, so it was named a three-phase bomb.
This stacking method can make the hydrogen bomb yield very large, very large, and the yield of 200 million tons is nothing more than a pile of raw materials.
However, after considering it, the Academy of Nuclear Sciences postponed this plan temporarily, because the mass of this giant three-phase bomb even exceeds 50 tons, which has lost its practical combat significance, and the fusion power accounts for only half of it, and the other half comes from fission, which does not feel good.
The raw materials required to make such a super three-phase bomb are also quite large, and the cost is extremely huge, although there is a chance of passing, but controlling the budget is the instinctive behavior of domestic scientific research.
In this case, Yu Min proposed to design a new explosive configuration, as much as possible to use only fusion to enhance the power, preferably to achieve a chain reaction, so that the new configuration fusion power may account for more than 99%, and the equivalent can easily achieve billions of tons or even tens of billions of tons, weight and price are much cheaper than three-phase bombs.
The best imitation object for designing nuclear fusion configurations is obviously the sun, and the only one with the deepest research on the sun in China is probably the Hehuai scientific research base.
Fu Mingdong licked his lips after listening to Ai Quan's words, and then shook his head vigorously:
"A chain reaction of this order of magnitude...... I don't think so, but if we can do this, I'm afraid we can all take a big step forward in controlled nuclear fusion, and we will indeed need a completely new configuration.
And I'm afraid that it's not enough for us to get together and think about it, we also need to conduct thermonuclear experiments, that is, to explode a hydrogen bomb, many times like that, which is almost impossible. ”
"No, we have time."
Ai Quan: "I can tell you...... There will be many, many hydrogen bombs on the moon that will explode next, and we have ample opportunities to collect data up close and without restrictions, so we have the confidence to come up with a new configuration. ”
"You guys really ......"
Fu Mingdong finally confirmed the crazy hydrogen bomb mining operation of United Mining, which surprised him for a while before he came back to his senses.
"Well, if that's the case, there's hope, but I'd like to think about it...... In the future, a few tons of warheads may have a yield of hundreds of millions of tons, or even billions of tons, and the third world war may really blow humanity back to the Stone Age. ”
"Rest assured, we have thought more carefully about these issues, otherwise we would not have maintained only such a small nuclear arsenal."
Ai Quan smiled, feeling that Fu Mingdong was a little too worried:
"Maybe in the future, it will be these super bombs that will save humanity, think about those asteroids that may hit the earth, and the little things of millions of tons and tens of millions of tons are tantamount to tickling for them, and even resource exploitation.
In space, the strongest power of mankind is actually just like that. ”
