Chapter 1571 Fusion Light!

With the shutdown of the second-generation controllable fusion experimental reactor, the bright aurora over the urban agglomeration in the Yangtze River Delta also merged into the night behind it. Until the ray of light completely disappeared from the field of vision, the whispers of discussion spread like waves in the venues of the Heart of Asia.

Slowly putting down the camera in his hand, staring at the deep night, Clooney muttered to himself.

"...Is this a gift from Academician Lu?"

It's a bunker!

Compared with the shock of him as a reporter, the shock felt by the leaders of the countries sitting in the VIP seats of the exhibition hall is obviously much stronger.

After admiring the aurora that lit up the night sky, Minister Ottoski of the Science and Technology Department of the Slavic Union showed a solemn expression on his face.

After taking a deep breath, he glanced at Chairman Will Jeff sitting next to him, and said in a serious tone.

"Aurora... incredible. It is almost impossible to form an aurora in the middle latitudes under natural conditions. Unless..."

Will Jeff, who had just come to his senses, immediately asked.

"Unless what?"

"Through some special technique, they artificially ionized the atmosphere. Or to put it in a better way, they 'ignited' the air with lasers, microwaves, or something like that."

Fired the air?

The expression on Weier Jeff's face was slightly moved, and he asked quickly.

"Can this kind of thing be done? Isn't it dangerous?"

Ottoski shook his head.

"It's so dangerous that the earth's atmospheric environment is tougher than we imagined. As long as it doesn't take ten or twenty years as a long-term effect, the impact is still very small. But I have to admit that even if it is only a short period of two Minutes, it is really not an easy task to create an artificial aurora on such a scale."

Glancing in Li Guangya's direction, Ottoski moved closer to Wil Jeff, lowered his voice and continued.

"The aurora can be seen in the entire Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration... Roughly, they need at least one high-power laser transmitter with a power of 100GW—or even 1000GW!"

"Not only that, but what is even more surprising is how they did it in space. The power generation equipment to power this kind of laser emitter, I am afraid that the power of a nuclear fusion generator set may not be enough, but It is even less visible in space, where heat dissipation is difficult."

"You know, even the peak power generation in Guanghan City is not as exaggerated as 1000GW..."

Even if all the solar power plants on the moon are commandeered, it is impossible to meet this level of energy demand.

If the laser transmitter can also be realized by integrating multiple fractional lasers to form a transmitting array, then in terms of energy alone, there is almost no solution in terms of current technology and realistic conditions.

Even if Academician Lu is rich, it is impossible, this is not a problem that money can solve at all!

After hearing Ottoski's explanation, the expression on Will Jeff's face became more serious, and he asked in a serious tone.

"What is your speculation..."

"There is only one possibility."

Looking at the expression on Ottoski's face, Will Jeff was slightly stunned, and quickly read something from his eyes, that serious expression was gradually replaced by a touch of unbelievable shock.

"Could it be! You mean..."

"Yes," Ottoski nodded, and continued with a complicated tone, "Although this may sound unbelievable...but the second-generation controllable fusion research that has been stagnant for a century may have been solved by them. "

Not just the Slavic Union.

The leaders of the North Sea Alliance, the North American Alliance, and the Iberia-French Alliance, who were sitting not far away, also learned something from their staff or the top leaders of the R&D department.

Actually, it's not that hard to guess.

It is well known that East Asia Electric Power is researching the second-generation controllable fusion technology. Even at the beginning of the year, the residents of Guanghan City were upset about this matter, and major media are following up the progress of related events.

Prior to this, the fusion technology research centers of various countries have all made a comprehensive evaluation report on the second-generation experimental reactor project of East Asia Electric Power. Including technical feasibility demonstration, project success rate, forecast completion period, possible technical route...Basically, everything that can be analyzed has been analyzed.

Especially for the project success rate, almost no research center has given a more optimistic rating. As for the expectation that the project will make significant progress in the short term, almost without exception, it is a pessimistic evaluation.

These reports were even borrowed by the capital market in the past, and became the theoretical basis for many international capitals to follow Song Yangwei's short selling of East Asia Power... Although their heads were blown because of a big guy who didn't follow the routine up.

However, no one expected that East Asia Electric Power would actually come up with this technology? !

Not just high-ranking officials of the various regional alliances...

Even the chairman of the Pan-Asia Cooperation did not think of it!

There was applause in the arena.

This ingenious gift surpassed everyone's expectations and imaginations. Even the display of the entire Heart of Asia, and even the Heart of Asia itself, seemed to be overshadowed by the vast aurora.

After all, the former are nothing but man-made things.

And the latter, although most of them are also man-made, but the magnificent scale and momentum are as breathtaking as the mysterious power beyond nature.

Even if it's only a short two minutes.

Bathed in that pair of fanatical and excited gazes, as well as the applause and cheers that resounded through the audience, Lu Zhou waved his hands with a smile, ended his opening speech, turned and retreated behind the scenes.

Almost as soon as he returned to the scene, the news about the once-in-a-million-year aurora appearing over the urban agglomeration in the Yangtze River Delta has been swiping the screens in major virtual reality online communities.

People were talking like crazy, what did Academician Lu do in those short two minutes!

Looking at Lu Zhou who bowed and left the venue, bypassed the backstage, and returned to sit in the VIP seat, Chairman Li Guangya asked impatiently before he warmed up the stool.

"What was that light just now?"

Hearing this question, Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Isn't it obvious enough?"

"...Second-generation fusion?"

Lu Zhou didn't speak, but simply nodded.

After getting an affirmative answer from Lu Zhou, Li Guangya took a deep breath, and after a while, he recovered from the shock that was still unfinished.

"...I didn't expect you to really do it."

"I said that I never joke about what I decide to do," Lu Zhou asked casually, watching the large-scale cultural performance that had already started on the stage, "How long will this celebration end?"

"If you're asking about the opening ceremony, it will be over at nine o'clock." Li Guangya said softly after glancing at the time on the holographic watch, "If you're asking about the entire ceremony, it will be the closing ceremony at this time three days later."

Lu Zhou smashed his tongue and said.

"It's actually been three days."

"After all, there are a lot of exhibits, and scientific research institutions and high-tech companies from all over the world will come to join in the fun...even in the distant Mars colony."

When he said these words, Li Guangya's heart was full of complicated emotions.

Although the breakthrough of the second-generation controllable fusion technology is a good thing to be happy about, he really didn't expect Lu Zhou to choose it here and suddenly take it out in this way.

Although the expressions on the faces of the leaders of the regional alliances made him very happy, the consequence was that now not only the exhibits in the entire Heart of Asia were eclipsed by that ray of light, he originally planned to announce at the closing ceremony Now it is not sure whether it can overshadow the second-generation controllable fusion.

At this moment, he finally realized it.

Those people in modern history have a feeling of love and hate for this boss...
