Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

After the demonstration reactor project was established, Lu Yongchang, the chief engineer, once again felt the long-lost sense of busyness.

The first problem that needs to be solved is the location of the demonstration reactor.

Like nuclear fission reactors, the construction environment of nuclear fusion reactors also needs to be carefully considered.

The first and most important point.

There should be plenty of water nearby.

Whether it is fresh water or sea water.

After all, a large amount of heat is generated during the power generation process of a nuclear fusion reactor. Currently, the most economical and practical way is to use nearby water resources for cooling.

Second point, the terrain is flat.

Nuclear fusion reactors require the construction of a large number of supporting facilities!

Can't all these supporting facilities be built in ravines?

The third point is also the most troublesome point in the site selection process.

The geological conditions are stable!

Nuclear fusion reactors are not as dangerous as nuclear fission reactors. However, because they are deuterium and tritium fusion, there will still be a small amount of radiation hazards in the event of a leak.

Considering safety factors, controllable fusion reactors are best built in places with stable geological conditions.

In other words, nuclear fusion reactors must not be built near earthquake zones!

After repeated screening, Lu Yongchang set his sights on a treasure land.

Canghai Bay!

The original reason why a nuclear fission power station was not built in Canghai Bay was mainly due to the geographical location of Canghai Bay.

Once an accident occurs at the Canghai Bay nuclear fission power station, radioactive wastewater will accumulate in Canghai Bay for a long time!

This will bring huge security risks to Xia Country!

But nuclear fusion power plants basically do not have this risk.

In the event of an accident, the magnetic confinement device of the stellarator stops operating, and the nuclear fusion reaction inside will also quickly stop.

As for radioactive hazards…

This is the biggest difference between nuclear fusion and nuclear fission!

Nuclear fission, both raw materials and fission products, are extremely radioactive.

Even nuclear wastewater contains a large amount of radioactive materials.

But nuclear fusion is different.

Even if the fusion method currently used is deuterium-tritium fusion, only tritium atoms contain a small amount of radioactivity among the fusion raw materials and fusion products.

This is completely controllable!

What's more... in Lu Yongchang's plan, deuterium and tritium fusion is only temporary, and the ultimate goal is helium fusion, which is known as clean energy!

…

With the selection of the reactor construction site, the specific construction plan for the controllable nuclear fusion demonstration reactor has also been released.

"Construction Plan for Controlled Nuclear Fusion Demonstration Reactor"

A document quietly went online.

The biggest highlight in the document is the total man-hours required for this construction plan.

Three months!

From the completion of the site selection to the completion of the construction of the pile, everything according to Xia Guo's plan only takes three months!

When this document was uncovered by someone who was interested, the entire Xia Kingdom was in a state of excitement!

On the hot search list for scarves, Wang Feng, who was just about to hold 16 consecutive concerts, was pushed down from the top of the hot search list before he could secure his spot.

"The total working time is three months!" 》

"The infrastructure maniac is back!" 》

"Xia Guo Speed!" 》

This series of hot searches not only shocked Wang Feng, but also shocked netizens who were immersed in scarves and eating melons!

"Ah? Three months? Did you write it wrong? It takes three months to lay the foundation of my house!"

"(manually smiles sideways), upstairs, do you think the country will make mistakes on such an important document?"

"Hahaha! Looking at the above, I don't know what Xia Guo's name is in the world! Do you know what an infrastructure maniac is? JPG!"

"The United States: Don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors..."

Thanks to the help of some enthusiastic netizens, a few hours later, there was also a storm on Twitter!

"WTF??? Three months?"

"Jesus! Xia Guo is so crazy!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Can such a big project be completed in three months? In our country, three months is not enough time for workers to mix cement!"

At first glance, this comment was posted by a netizen from Western Europe who was just watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously.

After all, for Western Europe, where it takes ten years to build a road, China's infrastructure construction speed is no different from myth!

These comments on Twitter were naturally moved back to Xia Guobin intact.

For a time, the scarf was filled with laughter and laughter.

Of course, while countless people of the Xia Kingdom were shocked and cheering for him, there were always some walking half a million who wanted to pick some thorns.

"Impossible! I don't believe it!"

"Seeing is believing, hearing is believing. Doesn't it mean what the document says?"

"After the three-month period is up, just take a photo to fool netizens, and then slowly build it up. This kind of thing doesn't happen!"

"..."

I have to say that this year’s official account is really awesome!

In response to the doubts of these netizens, the official account of Xiaguo News released a scarf that day.

"Starting tomorrow, the official Douyin account of Xia Guo News will launch a live broadcast function."

"The construction site of the Canghai Bay Controlled Nuclear Fusion Demonstration Reactor will be broadcast in real time in the live broadcast room!"

"Welcome all netizen supervisors."

As soon as the scarf was released, the number of comments exploded!

"Six six six!"

"This official can handle it, but he is really angry when there are anti-fans!"

"If I don't say anything else, everyone, I'm going to set the alarm clock for tomorrow. Without further ado, I have to go to a carnival to celebrate!"

"Damn it, boss 666!"

"Big brother v me fifty, I haven't eaten for three days!"

...

At 8 o'clock the next morning.

Countless netizens gathered in the official Douyin live broadcast room of Xiaguo News.

Above the dark screen, comments flashed by quickly.

"Where are the people? Open the door! You have the ability to live broadcast, but not the ability to open the door?!"

"It's eight o'clock! Open the door, open the door!"

The next moment, the dark screen suddenly lit up!

When the brightness of the lens gradually returned to balance, the scene of the Canghai Bay fusion reactor construction site suddenly came into everyone's eyes!

Thousands of excavators were neatly arranged on the left side of the lens!

On the right side of the lens, there were thousands of engineering vehicles responsible for various construction work!

In the center of the lens, there were several huge ramming machines!

After a short gap, the number of bullet comments in the live broadcast room increased exponentially!

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"

"Is this the Great Power Heavy Industry? Love it!"

The next moment, the voice-over appeared, a slightly sweet female voice.

"Hello, everyone. This is the construction site of the Canghai Bay Fusion Demonstration Reactor."

"Today is the first day of construction. The first construction team is in front of you."

"In order to ensure the speed of construction, there are a total of three construction teams in this demonstration reactor construction task."

"In the next three months, the three construction teams will take turns to build the Canghai Bay Fusion Demonstration Reactor 24 hours a day!"

As the voice fell, the number of barrages in the live broadcast room increased again!

"Three construction teams!"

"Sister, show your face! Don't just talk!"

"..."

Under the "supervision" of a group of netizens, the ramming machine of the fusion demonstration reactor project hit the first hammer!
