Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Engineering Base.

In the lecture hall on the second floor of the institute, a large meeting is about to be held.

In the front and rear doors of the lecture hall, people opened the doors and walked in one after another.

Not only the researchers and engineering leaders of the Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Project, but also many cooperative units that received emergency notifications temporarily.

For example, Western Superconducting Group, which is responsible for the production of high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting materials, is responsible for the grid structure of the power system, and Huaguo Nuclear Industry Construction Group is responsible for engineering construction, etc.

All the companies and groups involved in the Qixia controllable nuclear fusion project received an urgent notice and arranged for representatives to come.

Sitting in the middle of the lecture hall, Li Hua, the vice president of Jiuzhou Electric Group, who has been in charge of the docking, looked at the black crowd in front of him, and then at the empty lecture hall in front of him. What exactly is the meeting trying to do.

Although Kyushu Electric Group participated in the Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Project, it only signed a contract to provide the corresponding steel structure and parts according to the requirements of the other party, and its contribution to the project was not very large.

To be honest, it was the first time for him to participate in such a large meeting today.

I don't know what to do in such a hurry this time.

"Long time no see, Mr. Li." Just as he was thinking, a voice came from his ear, and another figure sat down beside him.

Li Hua turned his head to look, raised his eyebrows and said, "You're here too?"

Beside him, Wang Demin, the vice president of Shangwei Co., Ltd. smiled and said: "Academician Xu called, of course he has to come. I just don't know what happened this time. Do you have any news?"

Li Hua glanced at the lecture hall, then his eyes fell on the lecture platform, he shook his head and said, "I don't know, I just know it's urgent."

Wang Demin smiled and said, "The only ones who know the specific information are those big bosses sitting in front. For those of us who provide materials and parts, I'm afraid that internal information will hardly be disclosed."

Compared with the external cooperative companies sitting in the middle and the back, the ones sitting in the front are the internal personnel of Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Project.

If there is something that needs to be discussed or announced in such a solemn meeting today, those present will probably know it.

Of course, what Wang Demin didn't expect was that in today's lecture hall, there were very few people who knew the specifics.

Even the insiders sitting in front were just as confused as they were, and were quietly asking and discussing with colleagues around them.

Li Hua shrugged his shoulders and said, "Just wait, everyone is here, I will definitely talk about it in today's meeting."

Wang Deming smiled and said: "That's true, I'm just curious. This is the first time for me to participate in such a large-scale meeting. I haven't been there before when I signed a contract and provided materials."

After a pause, he continued: "I don't know if there is a chance to meet and say hello to Academician Xu this time."

Li Hua said lightly: "You think too much, how many times have you met that person in the past two years? With that person's level, if you didn't make an appointment, you would run over without authorization."

Wang Deming laughed and didn't mention it again.

The two were chatting, and on the reporting stage, a young figure came out from behind the scenes.

In the lecture hall, the originally noisy whispering and discussion disappeared instantly, and all eyes gathered and fell on the report platform.

Walking up to the podium, Xu Chuan tried the microphone first, and then looked at the audience who were watching him and the crowd.

He cleared his throat, and under the eyes of everyone, he said calmly: "With the unremitting efforts of many researchers in Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Research Institute and Computing Materials Laboratory, Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Project ushered in a new era. Progress."

"A week ago, the materials research team led by Professor Zhao Guanggui of the Computational Materials Laboratory successfully found a material that can be applied to the first wall of the controllable nuclear fusion reactor chamber."

"After rigorous testing, the institute confirmed that this new type of material exhibits excellent performance in resisting neutron radiation and meets various performance requirements of the first wall material."

As soon as this sentence came out, there was a commotion in the audience.

Li Hua, who was sitting at the back of the lecture hall, couldn't help swallowing, and looked at the lecture platform with surprise and shock in his eyes.

Beside him, Wang Demin, the vice president of Shangwei Co., Ltd., had the same expression on his face.

After being shocked for a moment, the two looked at each other, neither said a word, but they could see the emotion that the other wanted to express from the other's face and eyes.

New materials that meet the performance needs of first-wall materials!

If this news is released, it may shock the whole world.

The two of them never expected to hear such a super bomb news at the meeting today.

On stage, Xu Chuan's report continued.

".Last year, the Poxiao fusion device has achieved long-term high-density plasma operation and achieved fusion ignition of deuterium-tritium raw materials. Based on the progress of Qixia's controllable nuclear fusion project, I think that on the road of controllable nuclear fusion , we have already made considerable preparations.”

"Now, it's time to take it one step further."

In the lecture hall, everyone seemed to realize something.

Today's dawn fusion device has already achieved the initial ignition of deuterium-tritium nuclear fusion. If it is to be further advanced, it is to convert the temperature generated by the ignition into energy.

For controllable nuclear fusion, only one device can output energy!

Thinking of this, everyone's breathing became a lot heavier.

No one spoke, but everyone present guessed what would happen next. At this moment, everyone unconsciously clenched their fists and held their breath.

If there is no accident, they are in the venue today, and they are about to witness the birth of history, so they are extremely lucky.

On the podium, Xu Chuan was also filled with excitement and excitement.

Taking a deep breath, he looked around the lecture hall that was almost full, and said in a calm tone, "Qixia Controllable Fusion Demonstration Reactor Project!"

"From today!"

"Start building!"

After the words fell, there was a tide of applause in the lecture hall, and everyone stood up, clapping their hands red.

For everyone present today, this is undoubtedly a historic moment!

At the end of the meeting, representatives of various manufacturers and units did not leave.

The construction of Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Demonstration Reactor requires the cooperation of hundreds of different units.

Every material, or the material of parts, is a big deal.

Xu Chuan didn't care about these things. At present, the projects related to the demonstration reactor have just started, and it is enough to leave things like resource integration to Peng Hongxi and Gao Hongming.

In the morning, after the internal meeting of the project engineering, in the afternoon, a press conference started in a hurry.

The one who hosted the press conference was naturally Xu Chuan.

The construction of the demonstration reactor is a major project for the country, and it must be announced to the public.

Not only to enhance the confidence of the people, but also means that the social status in the world, whether it is political status or scientific research status, will be greatly improved.

Of course, the press conference on the construction of the demonstration reactor was not organized in a big way, but some well-known domestic media were notified and some brief reports were made.

However, this still caused a huge shock in the field of controllable nuclear fusion and even the whole world.

Accompanied by media reports such as Renren Daily, Nuclear Industry Times, and Huaxin News.

The entire network became lively in an instant.

In fact, in the past year, the field of controllable nuclear fusion has not been peaceful.

In other words, ever since that Professor Xu returned to China and began to control the Qixia Controllable Fusion Project, the field of controllable nuclear fusion has become quite lively.

Starting from high-temperature copper-carbon-silver composite superconducting materials, to the transaction of the ASDEX device of the German Plasma Research Institute, and then to the renaming of the dawn fusion device to achieve 45 minutes and two hours of high-density plasma operation. Finally, the representative of the United States in The attack on intellectual property issues on ITER, and Huaguo's voluntary departure from ITER

One big event after another makes people dazzled and overwhelmed.

The development of the international field of controllable nuclear fusion follows like an electrocardiogram, going up and down like bungee jumping.

The development of the field of controllable nuclear fusion, especially the international cooperation project ITER, can be said to be a small boat in the sea in the wind and rain. No one knows when a big wave will come and the small boat will completely capsize.

Many people have a hunch that there may be problems with the route of the tokamak installation, and it may not be suitable.

But the dawn led by Professor Xu achieved 45 minutes of high-density plasma operation, just like building a lighthouse in the sea, re-guiding the direction and giving hope.

This has also inspired ITER and many other scholars who study tokamak devices.

But it didn't take long for the United States to launch an attack on ITER, and Hua Guo's withdrawal once again drove the ITER, a ship that had already set sail again, into the wind and rain.

But now, a piece of news released by Huaguo's "Everyone's Daily", "Nuclear Industry Times" and other media has caused shock waves in the international plasma physics community and the field of controllable nuclear fusion.

In Huaguo, the Qixia Controllable Nuclear Fusion Project officially launched the construction of a demonstration reactor.

This news shocked the whole world.

Whether it is the United States, the European Union, or the many scientific researchers who are struggling on the front line, no one thought that all this happened so quickly and so suddenly.

So much so that after hearing the news, everyone's first reaction was suspicion, and then they were completely confused.

China?

Want to build a demonstration pile?

How can this be!
