Chapter 370 True and False
Chapter 370 True and False
”According to the latest intelligence, China seems to be preparing to upgrade all controlled nuclear fusion devices. Considering the sudden appointment of Kang Chi, I doubt whether they have made a major breakthrough in this area.”
”No, I think the opposite!”
Fry Hughes, the technical director from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, put forward a completely opposite view.
“I have also seen their technology upgrade project this time. It is mainly to upgrade the magnetic material of the device. Although this can improve the magnetic confinement performance of the device by about 9%, it is far from a major breakthrough.”
”And I think that this is not only not a technological breakthrough, but even a manifestation of self-abandonment and despair…”
”In order to carry out this level of technological upgrade, it is conservatively estimated that it will take at least 9 months to dismantle, install and debug the device, which will seriously slow down their research progress.”
After hearing the analysis of the invited scholar, the people at the venue couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
“I also agree with Professor Fries’s point of view. These upgrade projects are time-consuming and labor-intensive, but they are not very expensive. At first glance, they seem normal, but when you think about it carefully, it seems a bit abrupt. It seems that they are deliberately slowing down or even delaying the progress…”
”You mean, they are actually giving up on controlled nuclear fusion?”
”This possibility cannot be ruled out.”
After Fries finished speaking, he quickly added: “Of course, this does not mean that my views on nuclear fusion are the same as theirs. I always believe in the bright prospects of nuclear fusion. They gave up, which may be due to the tight scientific research budget…”
This sentence fully explains Fries’s contradictory psychology.
They are afraid that China will move too fast, but they are also afraid that China will move too slowly. That will only lead to themselves being severely slashed…
In this case, Fries can truthfully express his professional judgment, which is actually the highest respect for academics and truth.
At this time, CIA’s Atef Olsen also stood up in time and threw out his latest intelligence analysis.
”Just a few days ago, we found that China had conducted a secret equipment exercise in the western region.”
”Although they deliberately avoided the detection time and range of our satellites during the formal exercise and did not capture the specific exercise pictures, through the analysis and comparison of the images before and after, we can basically confirm that one of the participants in this military exercise is Kang Chi’s Datang Heavy Industry!”
”In fact, since last year, our satellites have been closely monitoring Kang Chi’s research center in Dongyang. It is basically certain that he is now conducting research and development of some weapons and equipment.”
”And now his research has made great progress, and at the same time requires a lot of capital investment…”
”Combined with Buddhist principles Mr. Hughes’ professional academic analysis, I have reason to believe that they cannot afford to carry out multiple super projects at the same time, so they made normal choices for the controlled nuclear fusion project…”
”At this juncture, appointing Kang Chi to control nuclear fusion is, in their words, ‘the more they want to give up, the more they show to the outside world that they value it, in order to confuse our judgment. ”
”What they launched against us is not a competition for controlled nuclear fusion, but an arms race hidden in the dark! If we fall into the trap and jump into the bottomless pit of controlled nuclear fusion, the consequences will be disastrous!”
”!!! “—— After the meeting, Polo, the Minister of Energy of the United States, immediately held a press conference.
Faced with the questions of media reporters about China’s appointment of Kang Chi as the chief engineer of the country’s controlled nuclear fusion, Polo gave a ‘tit-for-tat’ response.
“For controlled nuclear fusion, a future clean energy, our attitude and position are consistent with that of the Chinese side, and we are very optimistic about its broad prospects.”
”In the face of new challenges, we will continue to increase our investment in controlled nuclear fusion research and development, continue to expand the leading edge of our research institutions in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, and strive to complete the construction of the first experimental reactor that can self-sustain fusion reactions without energy input within five years. By 2040, we will complete the construction of the first commercial controlled nuclear fusion power station.”
”While competing, we will continue to seek cooperation with the international community.The possibility of cooperation. Although the ITER project is progressing slowly, we always believe that it will become a platform for exchanges and cooperation among countries in the field of controlled nuclear fusion, and jointly promote the development of controlled nuclear fusion technology. ”
“…” Poirot’s response immediately reassured the people of Country M.
Even the two important time nodes of 2030 and 2040 have been clearly announced. Just tell me if it is convincing! However, what they don’t know is that Poirot is completely lying. Not only do they have no plans to increase their investment in controlled nuclear fusion, they are even preparing to cut investment in the next few years…
While deceiving the media, they are also sending “signals” to China.
”Look, we’ve taken the bait!”
Anyway, everyone has their own ulterior motives, and true and false intelligence is kicked back and forth.
Kang Chi, who has returned to Pangu Base, just smiled softly after watching this interview on Chen Hai’s tablet.
”How credible do you think what he said is? ”
”If he didn’t say the specific time point, I might believe it.”
”That’s good.” Chen Hai was relieved immediately, “They are still as arrogant as ever.”
”Arrogant?”
”Well, they didn’t really take the bait, which means they are sure that we can’t fight on multiple fronts. Isn’t this arrogant?”
”That makes sense.”
”But the main reason why we can fight on multiple fronts is actually your high energy and low consumption.”
”High energy and low consumption?” Kang Chi couldn’t help but roll his eyes at Chen Hai, “Can’t you use another word to praise?”
”I have little knowledge and I am short of words. ”
“…”
After Chen Hai left, Kang Chi picked up the learning machine and continued to read the research materials of all controlled nuclear fusion projects in China.
These are the materials accumulated by various devices for several years or even decades. Even if Kang Chi uses the learning machine, it is estimated that he will not be able to finish reading them in less than two weeks.
However, this speed is already very abnormal, so fast that Kang Chi feels it is unnecessary, or dares not to continue to upgrade the learning machine…
After all, for ordinary people, studying a fusion device may take a lifetime of energy.
If you can master it, you will definitely be a leader in a certain fusion experimental device.
Most people are just small screws, responsible for the content of a certain section of a certain device.
As for people who are proficient in all types of fusion devices, it can be said that there are basically no people.
So in fact, no one thinks that Kang Chi will really read all these materials…
