Annihilation of the solar system

Chapter 54 The Confused Engineer

As the honorary dean, Gu Changqing looked happy:

"Very good. Now is the time to seize the day. Everyone should let go and dare to make breakthroughs and forge ahead."

Then he turned to look at the Engineering Academy:

"Dean Shao, look at how confident you are about the construction situation."

Dean Shao said confidently:

"If the plan is feasible, then based on our past experience and the current extraordinary situation, I believe we can actually put it into use in less than a year."

At this time, Xia Jigang, who was already the dean of the Academy of Sciences, coughed dryly, leaned his head towards Gu Changqing and whispered:

"This matter is of great importance. Should we report it to the State Council? We should seek the opinions of the leaders before making a conclusion. After all, if there is any problem, this responsibility can be..."

Gu Changqing's expression froze briefly, and then returned to a shallow smile:

"Dean Xia, I understand your concerns. But now is an extraordinary period. What the State Council has entrusted us to do is to make decisions on science and technology. I don't think we have the need and time to continue discussing the feasibility of the plan. If the theoretical calculation

If it passes, then we'll do it.

Now everyone wants to desperately pile weights on the scale that may determine the outcome. But none of us know which weight is the one that determines the outcome, so we can only put each weight on the scale.

Every particle should be regarded as the weight that determines the fate of mankind. Let everyone go ahead and take the responsibility."

Although Xia Jigang always smiled with respect, a look of displeasure flashed in his eyes:

"Okay, you are the old dean, I listen to you."

The meeting ended soon. Zhou Cheng walked out of the Academy of Sciences building and suddenly felt a little dizzy. Only then did he realize that he had not slept all night and was approaching the limit of his physical strength. He held his hands on the wall and stood far away and took a few deep breaths.

Adjusting my state, I thought about going back to the rest room of the office to take a nap.

His wife Shen Manling, who was waiting for him in the car, saw her husband's unusual behavior and quickly opened the car door and walked over quickly.

Suddenly, a cramped step came from behind.

"Professor Zhou, I want to have a few words with you alone."

Zhou Cheng looked and saw that it was Wen Zhuorui, the chief designer of the "Fuyao System" who had also attended the meeting just now, but had never said a word. Zhou Cheng put on a smile with some difficulty:

"This is Chief Wen, do you have anything to ask me about?"

At this time, Shen Manling also came over and asked anxiously:

"Lao Zhou, what's wrong with you? You feel uncomfortable there."

Zhou Cheng waved his hand and said:

"It's okay. I just stayed up late and am a little nervous. This is Chief Engineer Wen of the Engineering Academy. I'll chat with him for a few words and then come over. You can wait for me in the car."

Shen Manling smiled politely towards Wen Zhuorui and nodded. Then she said to Zhou Cheng:

"You insisted on driving here by yourself this morning. I think you can fall asleep while driving like this! I'll wait for you in the car."

Then he politely greeted Wen Zhuorui and returned to the car.

When Shen Manling returned to the car, Wen Zhuorui looked around and whispered:

"Professor Zhou, did you receive the information via email at 9:15 last night?"

Zhou Cheng was taken aback, and his original fatigue was instantly dispelled. He did not tell the meeting how or when he received this information. He subconsciously looked around and approached Chief Wen:

"How do you know? Did you send me that information?"

Zhou Cheng's voice was a little urgent, which made the cautious Chief Wen Zhuorui look around again, and then said in a low voice:

"No! No! No! Professor Zhou, that was not sent by me. I also received a very detailed information via email at 9:15 last night.

The content is about the design of oversized high-strength tough components, carbon mesh structural skeletons and high-temperature superconductors in high and cold climates. These three projects are technical difficulties that our Fuyao system has not yet completely overcome. In fact, we are confident that we can overcome them on time.

I don’t have much confidence in difficult times. I didn’t expect..."

Zhou Cheng shivered after hearing this and asked:

"You mean..."

Then he also realized that his voice was a little excited and lowered his tone:

"Are you saying that you have also received information that exceeds the current level of academic research? And it happens to be able to solve your most pressing problem?"

Wen Zhuorui nodded:

"That's what it means. It's just that I don't have the scientific research spirit and decisiveness like you. I stayed up late to verify the feasibility and then reported it to the Academy of Sciences.

I originally planned to fully verify its feasibility before reporting it, and I heard from Chief Engineer Song Shi of the space agency that he also received an email at the same time. The content was also about the large-scale interplanetary spacecraft they were waiting to conquer.

Thrust nuclear powered ion engine.”

Zhou Cheng had originally planned not to investigate who threw the life-saving straw for the time being, but the situation Chief Wen told made him very curious about the source of the email.

He forced his exhausted brain to think. Wen Zhuorui on the side looked at Zhou Cheng dumbfounded for a long time and said tentatively:

"Professor Zhou, since you have brought out the nuclear fusion reactor plan for discussion today and it has been approved. Then I will go and discuss with Chief Song. How about we use the plan we received after passing the calculation.

It's just this source... we're a little worried..."

Zhou Cheng forcibly calmed down:

"Oh, Mr. Wen. In this way, we all have different opinions on technical issues. My own opinion is what I said at the meeting just now. As long as the technology can withstand theoretical derivation and solve the current problems, it can be put into use directly! After all, this is

The threat from the sky is too great and we cannot afford to waste any time."

He paused, and subconsciously thought of his old friend Cao Rui:

"As for the source, we don't have the ability to trace it, but I have a friend who is an expert in this field. I will tell him and see what he thinks. If necessary, I would like to ask you and Mr. Song to go over and find out more.

Situation, that’s what I think.”

Wen Zhuorui hesitated for a while, nodded and said:

"Well, that's all we can do now. If you need our help, just say so, and we will definitely cooperate. It's just that we have been engaged in scientific research for most of our lives, and this kind of thing is too mysterious, and we feel a little uneasy."

Zhou Cheng and Wen Zhuorui exchanged a few words before getting in the car, and his wife Shen Manling drove him to the office. When parting, they repeatedly told her husband to take a rest before working.

When he arrived at the office, Zhou Cheng was originally going to look at the information in his hand, but when he saw the bed where he usually took his lunch break, he could no longer resist the waves of exhaustion in his brain, so he fell on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
