From all-round academic master to chief scientist

"Your preparations are indeed quite sufficient."

In a conference room, looking at Ma Gaoliang in front of him, Lin Xiao couldn't help but sigh.

After the announcement of room-temperature superconductors, various news appeared, and he did read these news.

For example, the superconducting transmission line project has already started construction, which shows how fast the action is.

In addition, there are superconducting energy storage equipment and superconducting generators. These two items have the least amount of engineering work and are not difficult to design. Therefore, the production plants for these two items have also been set up, and these two items are Technologies that can spread their energy costs the fastest.

Just like superconducting energy storage devices.

As we all know, electricity consumption has peak and trough periods, but it is obviously impossible for power generation to keep up with the changes in peak and trough periods at all times. In order to ensure that every household can use it normally To avoid power outages, the power generation is often higher than the power consumption, which means there will always be additional power generation. These extra power generation are obviously additional costs, and in the end they are basically imported into the earth. This function.

As for superconducting energy storage equipment, by winding normal temperature superconductors into a large number of coils and then passing current into them, the lossless nature of the superconductors can allow these currents to be stored inside, even without the need for rechargeable batteries. The conversion between chemical energy and electrical energy, so that the extra electricity can be stored and used later.

As for superconducting generators, they can greatly save the losses caused by power generation, and at the same time, they can also greatly reduce the size of the generator. This helps the power plant to purchase more generators and better utilize the converted energy. of kinetic energy.

Of course, in addition to these functions, superconducting generators also have a lot of other functions. For example, nuclear submarines also need generators. Nuclear submarines use the heat generated by nuclear fission to boil water. Boiling water is naturally for Promoting generators, so superconducting generators can also play a huge role in this and can provide stronger power for nuclear submarines.

Of course, these are the news that can be released on the news for the time being, and there is still a lot of news that cannot be released.

Just like the research and development of some secret weapons.

Lin Xiao also heard about these things.

He had never heard about this before, but now, he finally knew how well prepared the country was for this.

However, these are still not critical issues. The most critical issue is how to firmly control the materials for room-temperature superconductors under the covetousness of foreign countries.

The first is the source, that is, Lin Xiao, the source. Nowadays, the protection for him has become higher and higher. Now Lin Xiao is basically surrounded by many bodyguards to protect him all the time. Normally, It won't appear in front of him to avoid affecting him, so there is basically no problem at the source.

Then there is the production aspect. Lin Xiao only now knows that their CCD-I production line is fully automated. There is almost no one in it, and those who are are all kind of core people. So from this point of view, There is nothing to worry about either.

Finally, there are those room-temperature superconductors that have leaked out. As a material destined to be used on a large scale, it is obviously inevitable for others to get it for analysis. So the question now is how to prevent others from getting it for analysis and then revealing the production method. To analyze it, from this point of view, if you want to analyze this matter, ordinary material analysis methods are useless. Just knowing the composition of CCD-I, it is impossible to analyze how to produce it.

This requires the superconducting mechanism in Lin Xiao's mind to help analyze it, but obviously, until now, only Lin Xiao still knows what this high-temperature superconducting mechanism is, so from this point of view, he has basically avoided being The possibility of reverse engineering by foreigners.

Reverse imitation in materials science is extremely difficult. From the ratio of materials to the order of cutting materials, as well as the control of environmental conditions, etc., it requires consistency in multiple dimensions to achieve it. But if you want to achieve this Consistently, there is either theoretical guidance or enumeration and luck.

Needless to say about the former, the cost and time required for the subsequent enumeration method are even more difficult to estimate.

Therefore, these preparations can basically clarify the possibility that foreign countries want to imitate it, approaching infinity to 0.

In other words, except for the possibility of internal leaks, they basically don’t have to worry about CCD-I being copied abroad.

Even internally, there are very few people who know the complete production method.

All in all, China is fully prepared to deal with various possible methods from abroad.

"In this way, I can basically rest assured."

Lin Xiao said.

Ma Gaoliang said with a smile: "This is natural, just relax. We are definitely more unwilling to see the leakage of normal temperature superconductors than you are."

While the two were talking, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"My Academician Lin, you are so easy to find."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

When the two of them looked at each other, Lin Xiao stood up with a smile and said, "It turns out to be Academician Zhao."

The person who came was none other than Zhao Xian.

Zhao Xian pulled a face, sat next to Lin Xiao, and said: "Academician Lin, Academician Lin, you said you recruited so many talents from my research institute, and I signed it readily. Why? In the end, you came up with the results of your research, but you didn’t even tell me about it?”

Lin Xiao was stunned and immediately complained: "Academician Zhao, it's not that I didn't tell you. If you want to complain, you have to complain to Director Ma. If they don't tell you, there's nothing I can do about it, even though I developed the stuff. It came out, but I can’t leak the information casually, I have to sign a confidentiality agreement.”

Zhao Xian immediately turned to look at Ma Gaoliang next to him.

Ma Gaoliang suddenly felt dizzy. How could Academician Lin betray his teammates with just his mouth?

But looking at the way Academician Zhao looked at him, if he didn't explain himself today, it might be difficult for him to get over it.

So he shook his head helplessly, and finally said: "Academician Zhao, please stay calm and calm. There is actually a reason why I don't tell you this news."

"Oh? Tell me, what's the reason?"

Ma Gaoliang began to explain: "Think about it, you are the father of our superconductors. What would you do if you knew the news?"

Zhao Xian frowned, and then said: "Probably... have a good few days of drinking to celebrate? And then happily announce your retirement a few days later?"

"Yeah!"

Ma Gaoliang clapped his hands and said: "Think about it, if you react like this, wouldn't it be very likely to make those foreigners suspicious? And if you don't know, you will definitely continue to conduct research at your post. Naturally, foreign countries It’s impossible to guess that we have developed a room-temperature superconductor.”

"So that's it!" Zhao Xian suddenly showed an expression of realization.

Ma Gaoliang laughed loudly: "Yes, yes, that's it."

At the same time, he was still thinking that this old academician Zhao was quite reasonable.

However, the next moment, Zhao Xian glared: "Doesn't that mean you are using me as a gun?"

Ma Gaoliang couldn't catch his breath.

"Ahem...hey, Academician Zhao, we can't say that. How can we treat you as a gunman?"

"If you think about it, it's because you don't know that the relevant news has never been known abroad. For example, we have begun laying superconducting circuits in areas with relatively large electricity loads such as Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, and the Pearl River Delta. As a result, foreign countries have not yet reacted. From this point of view, you are a great contributor!"

"Oh!" Zhao Xian had a look of realization again, but the next moment he said again: "But I was still used as a weapon by you."

Ma Gaoliang: "..."

Seeing Ma Gaoliang's look, Zhao Xian suddenly smiled again, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "But, if you promise me a condition, I won't care about this matter."

Ma Gaoliang said: "You tell me, Academician Zhao, whatever you say, I will try my best to satisfy you."

"My conditions are very simple. Give me some room-temperature superconductors. I want to see with my own eyes what the thing I have worked hard for my whole life looks like." Zhao Xian rubbed his hands and asked expectantly. : "There should be no problem with this, right? Are there any difficulties?"

Hearing Zhao Xian's words, Ma Gaoliang and Lin Xiao were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes showed respect.

Ma Gaoliang said: "Of course there is no problem. CCD-I has been announced. This matter will definitely live up to Academician Zhao's expectations."

Zhao Xian has been pursuing this thing his whole life, and he can be regarded as the promoter of China's superconducting world. Although room-temperature superconductors have now been developed, his past contributions have not faded.

"That's good, that's good." Zhao Xian's face suddenly showed a happy expression, which was also his original purpose.

After this goal was achieved, he turned his eyes to Lin Xiao next to him again and said with a smile: "Academician Lin, it's time to talk about you. You can always bring surprises to people."

Lin Xiao smiled and said: "Luck, just luck."

"This is not luck." Zhao Xian shook his head and said, "No matter what, I have to thank you for allowing me to see the emergence of room-temperature superconductors in my lifetime."

"I didn't expect that the young scientist I had a casual chat with at the Superconducting Research Institute developed this thing in an instant."

Lin Xiao nodded slightly: "I didn't expect it either."

Zhao Xian smiled, "Science is originally composed of many unexpected things."

Then, he fixed his gaze on Lin Xiao's face again and asked: "Also, I have another question, have you found the high-temperature superconducting mechanism?"

Lin Xiao nodded.

Zhao Xian expressed emotion.

"That's good, that's good."

"I guess I won't know what this mechanism looks like from you, but that's okay."

"No matter what, I have been researching in the superconducting world for so long, and now, I have to thank you for solving this ultimate problem for us."

Lin Xiao touched her nose: "Don't you hate me? It seems that many people will lose their jobs, right?"

Zhao Xian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter.

"That's true."

Ma Gaoliang next to him couldn't help but laugh.

Normal temperature superconductors have come out, and those who study superconducting materials are probably out of work, right?
