Chapter 595 To Go or Not to Go?

Controlled fusion miniaturization? !

WTF? !

Hearing these words, Toyoki Kiyoshi almost dropped the mobile phone in his hand.

This demonstration has not been warmed up yet, why did you start thinking about the miniaturization of the reactor?

Although he is not engaged in nuclear fusion, he is still a high-achieving student who graduated from Mizuki University. What's more, he has worked in the Ministry of Science and Technology for so many years, and now he is in charge of the reorganization of the project team for the STAR demonstration. At least he has some experience in related research. understand.

There was no sound on the phone for a long time, Lu Zhou hesitated for a while, and asked.

"Any questions?"

"No problem, just send the list...to my work email address." After hesitating for a while, Feng Shuqing couldn't help but said, "The miniaturization of controllable fusion...will this research be too advanced? I think Or the second-generation controllable fusion is a little more reliable."

However, advanced research is often not so easy.

Although he knew Chief Master Lu was awesome, he still couldn't help reminding him.

Hearing this question, Lu Zhou immediately knew what he was thinking, but he didn't bother to explain in detail, so he said briefly.

"Although a nuclear battery can be regarded as a small fusion reactor, it is quite different from a real controllable fusion reactor. If you really can't understand it, you can simply make an analogy between a fission reactor and a radioisotope battery. Research matters Whether I can do it or not, I don’t need you to worry about it.”

This answer can be said to be unceremonious.

But hearing his blunt tone, Toyoki Kiyoshi's heart became much smoother.

There are also many academic bureaucrats in the Ministry of Science and Technology. These people actually speak and do things in the same style, and they are too lazy to explain to laymen about specific professional matters.

But one thing that is certain is that if they are sure to be able to do something, then there are probably only two situations. In other words, either I am stuck in a dead end and can't get out, or I am at least 80% sure...

No matter how he thinks about it, Feng Shuqing doesn't think that Lu Zhou will be the kind of person who gets into a dead end.

So, it can only be the latter...

Regardless of what Secretary Feng thinks, Lu Zhou doesn't care much about his feelings.

The energy problem is the key to the Hall thruster, and it is also the premise to realize the high-thrust Hall thruster. If you don't want to sacrifice specific impulse to increase thrust, then increasing electric power is almost the only option.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Zhou made a list on the computer and sent it to Feng Shuqing's mailbox.

Immediately afterwards, he closed the web page and opened the document. After sitting in front of the computer and contemplating for a while, he put his hands on the keyboard and began typing rhythmically.

The matter of the researchers is easy to solve, and it is enough to directly draw from the team of researchers and engineers of the STAR-2 project team.

The entire demonstration reactor project has trained a large number of experts in plasma physics and controllable fusion. With this huge talent reserve, he can easily Find the talent you need.

And with the help of these researchers, his research on that fusion battery will also be much more confident.

Of course, controllable fusion is a sensitive technology after all, and research related to this aspect still needs to be reported to the higher authorities.

Although fusion batteries and fusion reactors are completely different things, there are still many overlaps in technology.

Especially if you want to go the way of inertial restraint, it is very likely that you will use a laser ignition device. And this laser ignition device, in addition to being used to study plasma, can also be used to conduct nuclear tests.

With so many sensitive research projects involved, it would be impossible to carry out without the cooperation of relevant departments.

But for him, it is not difficult to win the cooperation of relevant departments.

Looking at the title on the screen, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Zhou's mouth.

"About the Application Prospect and Technical Feasibility Demonstration of Controlled Fusion Miniaturization Technology in Aerospace Field"

I believe that when he submits this thesis as an opening report, not to mention how much funding he can get, there will be no problem with project approval...

...

Haizhou.

Demonstration pile base.

Sheng Xianfu, who was sitting in the office, was filling out forms at his desk.

With the completion of the STAR-2 demonstration reactor project and the successful conclusion of the commendation conference, he can be said to be very happy recently.

The successful ignition of the demonstration team brought him not only a shiny 585 medal, but also matching treatment and status.

According to the reorganization arrangement of the project team, the STAR Research Institute will probably be merged into the East Asia Electric Power Company. Secretary Feng, who is in charge of the reorganization work, gave him two options.

One is to go to the enterprise, that is, to stay in the newly established East Asia Power Company, and serve as the chief engineer and vice president of its subsidiary technology development company.

Another option is to return to the original Southwest Institute of Physics and assume the post of director to preside over the overall situation.

Regarding this multiple-choice question, Sheng Xianfu hesitated for a long time in his heart.

Based on the development prospects of East Asia Power Company, going to the enterprise will definitely lead to a higher development for him personally. When he has enough qualifications, he will be transferred to the parent company as a vice president. The administrative level refers to three barrels of oil. class.

As for the director of the 585 Institute, although in the short term, the qualifications and status are definitely higher than the vice president of the subsidiary, but the room for further development is undoubtedly much smaller. In the future, even if it is evaluated as an academician, it is impossible to say that it has developed better.

If you were an ordinary person doing this multiple-choice question, most of them would choose the former.

However, after some careful consideration, Sheng Xianfu finally chose the latter.

As for the reason, it is also very simple to say.

Compared with the enterprise, he still prefers the environment of the research institute. Becoming a scholar is not only his career plan, but also his choice of life.

Moreover, at the beginning, after all, he ignored his bright future and resigned from 585 under pressure. After doing those things and choosing him, he was not uncommonly looked at by strange eyes.

Even if no one taunted him to his face, he still knew a little bit. The choices I made at the beginning once became negative teaching materials in the after-dinner conversations of my colleagues in the past.

Now that I am going back in a glorious manner as the director, some people must be ashamed to the point of embarrassment.

Whenever he thought of that scene, Sheng Xianfu couldn't help but smile a little.

It is not wrong to say that he is pretending.

After all, people don't pretend to live, what's the difference from salted fish?

Although he was still sitting in the office, his thoughts had already flown to Rongcheng thousands of kilometers away.

But at this moment, a knock on the door from outside the office interrupted his thoughts.

Stopping the pen in his hand, Sheng Xianfu looked towards the door and coughed lightly.

"come in."

The door of the office was pushed open, and a strange face appeared at the door.

Judging from his movement and walking posture when he entered the door, he didn't look like a researcher, but rather resembled the people in the troops outside the base.

Looking at the strange man in front of him, Sheng Xianfu hesitated a little, and asked, "Who are you?"

The man briefly introduced himself: "I'm from the Secrecy Department of the Science and Industry Bureau."

It turned out to be from the Bureau of Science and Industry?

Sheng Xianfu hesitated and asked, "Is there anything you can do with me?"

The man continued: "Professor Lu has something to do with you."

Sheng Xianfu: "Is there a project?"

"Yes."

Staring at the man in front of him who couldn't say a word too much, Sheng Xianfu couldn't laugh or cry: "You should tell me what project it is?"

The man shook his head: "The research project involves confidentiality. I can't disclose the specific content. You just need to answer whether I will go or not."

"Voluntary?"

"of course."

Sheng Xianfu fell silent.

On the one hand, he is the director of the 585 Institute, and on the other hand, he is doing research with Professor Lu... and he doesn't even know what the specific project is.

Are you going or not?

For a while, he also had some difficulties...
