Great Country Academician

Chapter 583: ‘Far Ahead’, released one year in advance

In Smolny Palace, Xu Chuan and Emperor Vladimir chatted for a while. There was no 'extra' exchange between the two.

The other party came all the way from Cosmo as if he was specially awarded a foreign academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

As for Xu Chuan, he didn't pay much attention to this matter.

He doesn't care much about political matters. No matter what the other party's purpose is, there is an entire big country standing behind him.

On the contrary, he is quite interested in this figure who has supported Tsarist Russia for more than ten years.

After all, whether in China or the United States, the reputation and legend of this Iron-Blooded Emperor are quite high.

Especially in China, because of the relationship between Tsarism and Russia, the emperor's reputation is mostly positive, and he has a lot of domestic fans.

Although Xu Chuan is not a fan, he has heard many of his stories.

Emperor Vladimir saw that the young scholar was very interested in some of his stories, so he didn't mind. He smiled and chatted with him about some of the opinions of people at that time.

"Speaking of which, you're not married yet?" After chatting for a while, Emperor Vladimir looked at Xu Chuan with a smile.

"Indeed." Xu Chuan nodded and responded.

"It's a pity that my youngest daughter is already married, otherwise." The emperor smiled and continued: "Do you need my help to introduce her?"

"Ahem, no need to trouble you, I have no plans to get married yet."

Hearing that the emperor wanted to introduce his daughter to him, Xu Chuan couldn't help but coughed dryly, even though he knew it was a joke.

Based on the appearance of this great emperor, although I have never seen his daughter, I guess she is not the type he likes based on her good looks.

A special ceremony for foreign academicians was completed. After a night's rest in St. Petersburg, Xu Chuan took a plane and returned to his motherland across the border from Tsarist Russia under the escort of the Tsarist Russian authorities.

Although this trip took a lot of energy and cost a lot of benefits, overall it was quite smooth.

At first, Xu Chuan was a little worried that he would encounter some "accidents" during the trip, but perhaps because this International Congress of Mathematicians was held in Tsarist Russia, this time he went abroad, and the country on the west coast did not choose to take action.

I have to say that I am indeed lucky to have a strong motherland supporting me.

If he is in Iran or other small countries now, he may not be safe even in his own country, let alone attending a mathematician conference and traveling abroad.

After returning to the capital smoothly, Xu Chuan took the high-speed train back to Jinling.

In early August, the domestic temperature was at its peak, and he, who had already adapted to the temperature of more than ten degrees in St. Petersburg, felt a little uncomfortable when he was suddenly exposed to temperatures in the 30s and 40s.

Suddenly entering the high-temperature system, the whole person felt a little down, as if he had caught a cold from the heat, and his head was a little dizzy.

For him now, things like catching a cold were nothing. Tang Ran and the medical staff noticed something was wrong with him right away. They took some Chinese medicine and drank it, then slept and it was immediately cured.

But for the country, his cold was a big deal.

A strategic-level national treasure scholar fell ill, and the news was passed directly to the highest level. The great elder personally called to inquire about the situation. After confirming that it was just a minor cold caused by the 'change of seasons', he felt relieved and told him to take good care of himself.

This news caused Xu Chuan's original plan to go to Xinghai Research Institute the next day to see the research progress of miniaturized controllable nuclear fusion technology and aerospace engines to be interrupted.

The Great Elder asked in person, but Tang Ran and the medical assistant immediately held him down and told him to recuperate at home for two more days.

There was no other way, Xu Chuan could only stay at home 'honestly'.

But it just so happens that I can sort out what I gained from this trip to St. Petersburg to attend the National Congress of Mathematicians.

Originally, he planned to keep an eye on the progress of the small controllable nuclear fusion and aerospace engines before coming back to deal with it. Now that he can't go, he simply did this work first.

I have to say that he gained a lot from this mathematics conference.

Putting aside the 'space-space' theory currently being worked on, the biggest remaining gains are number theory and analysis.

Relatively speaking, pure mathematics has always been his weaker area.

After all, whether in his previous life or this life, his major in mathematics was basically to combine mathematics with other fields, especially physics.

He does have some vacancies in research in the purely mathematical direction.

However, at this International Congress of Mathematicians, he listened to many lectures in the fields of number theory and made many notes.

As we slowly digest these insights in the follow-up time, we may be able to improve this area of ​​our shortcomings.

Although it may not necessarily reach the heights of other fields, such as solving partial differential equations, it is not impossible to drive progress in mathematics through a chain reaction.

Days passed like this. After returning from Tsarist Russia, Xu Chuan focused on further improving his mathematical ability. His life was quite regular, basically commuting to and from the villa at the foot of Purple Mountain between three o'clock and one line. , Xinghai Research Institute, and NTU teaching building.

Whether it is research on miniaturized controllable nuclear fusion technology or aerospace engines, they are already on the right track.

After the core problems have been solved, the remaining minor problems, such as the loss of high-energy particles and hot particles in the stellarator, the relative difficulty in raising the plasma temperature, etc., do not require Xu Chuan to serve as a core researcher.

Xinghai Research Institute has the richest controllable nuclear fusion research technology in the world. Solving these problems is far less difficult than solving controllable nuclear fusion for the first time.

In fact, when he went to St. Petersburg to attend the International Congress of Mathematicians, the Institute of Energy Research had already made a certain breakthrough on the difficult problem of increasing the plasma temperature of the stellarator.

This aspect mainly benefits from the powerful domestic ICRF antenna heating technology.

To put it simply, whatever is lacking is made up for.

Under the leadership of Liang Qude, the head of the Energy Research Institute, the laboratory of the Energy Research Institute carried out virtual assembly improvements on the ICRF heating antenna, simulated the entire assembly process of the new ICRF heating antenna, and conducted interference detection between its various components.

Through the structural design of the new ICRF heating antenna, finite element simulation of key components and overall virtual assembly, various design parameters of the new ICRF heating antenna were obtained, which verified the reliability and rationality of the design and enhanced the heating power.

Maintaining the temperature in the stellarator reactor chamber by improving ICRF heating technology is indeed a solution for stellarator chambers with complex structures that are prone to loss of high-energy particles.

However, this method is a treatment for headaches and pains in the head and feet.

The fundamental reason why it is relatively difficult to increase the plasma temperature inside the stellarator chamber is that the extremely complex magnet configuration causes the stellarator to leak a large amount of fusion energy in the form of heat loss.

The industry calls it ‘neoclassical transmission’, and this is the core reason why it is difficult to increase the plasma temperature inside the stellarator chamber.

However, for them who have reached the forefront of the field of controllable nuclear fusion, every progress is a matter of crossing the river by feeling for the stones. It is already very good to be able to cure the headache and the pain.

The days passed like this, and the time came to the end of August in the blink of an eye. Apart from the quadrennial conference held by the mathematics community at the end of July and the beginning of August, the academic world was relatively calm and nothing major happened.

But other areas are completely different.

The first thing to set off a wave was the latest planning report of the State Grid Corporation of China. Hua Fusion Energy Company completed the communication with the peninsula North Korea and South Korea to join the cross-regional power grid.

In the second half of the year, China will build a controllable nuclear fusion reactor in Dandong, a coastal city in Liaodong Province, and its power resources will be transported across the border to the peninsula.

If everything goes well, it may not be long before the electric energy from China will cross the 83rd parallel and enter the peninsula.

This will be a huge change for the situation in Asia as a whole.

After all, everyone knows that the West Coast country’s method of developing East Asia is to rely on South Korea, Sakura Country, Filipinos and other countries to form an island chain.

If the power energy in the peninsula is diverted to China, it will be a major blow to this deployment.

For a time, the international situation fluctuated continuously.

Before the news drama in the energy field came to an end, news about mobile phones or chips once again broke through the entire world.

In early September, Warwick held a press conference and will officially release the 50 series mobile phones on September 6.

As the latest member of the Warwick mobile phone series, Mate50 not only has more innovations in appearance design, but also makes breakthroughs in performance improvement and function expansion.

Whether it’s battery, screen, or design style, the 50 series did not disappoint expectations.

Not only that, at the press conference, it was revealed that this time Huawei 50 series mobile phones will fully use the domestic 5G Kirin 9000s chip, and its nanometer level has reached seven nanometers.

By using chip stacking technology, its performance can reach the level of TSMC's 5nm process.

This news completely shocked the mobile phone industry at home and abroad.

As we all know, due to reasons related to intellectual property rights, 5G technology and patents, Warwick has always been the target of strict suppression by the country on the west coast. The chip industry is a top priority.

In fact, Warwick's chip design technology is not weak. It is in the first echelon with Apple, Qualcomm, and MediaTek.

Especially in this 5G technology, it surpasses Apple and Qualcomm.

However, due to technical restrictions on the West Coast, the chip production environment has been stuck. Even if Warwick has chip stacking technology, it can only reach the 14-nanometer level.

This level is far from enough for mobile phone processors that are often 7 nanometers, 5 nanometers or even 3 nanometers.

Traditional high-end chips simply cannot solve this production problem.

As for the leading 5G technology, it is also stuck on the radio frequency chip filter. If the supply interruption problem of this filter is not solved, the 4G network will only be used in the future.

But now, with a press conference, all these problems seem to have been solved.

As soon as this press conference was held, related news quickly became a hot search topic on major online platforms, attracting the attention of a wide range of netizens.

【What the hell? Domestic 5G chips? Awesome! 】

【Far ahead! Far ahead! Once again, far ahead! ! ! 】

[The process from being ridiculed by the entire network to being admired really made people cry. 】

[Domestic chips, are they about to rise? Self-developed chips are really awesome! 】

[Thinking too much, the 7nm process is too far behind TSMC’s 2nm process. The 7nm chip is a bottleneck, and that’s where it ends. Without a top-notch photolithography machine, it’s useless. 】

[What you said above is right. In fact, Warwick’s technology is not that good. You can go and see more Apple when you have time. It is definitely easier to use, and the ios system is very smooth. You can learn more about it and don’t stop me from grabbing the mate50Pro. 】

[Chip is indeed a big problem, but how long will it last? In the past two years, we could only produce 100-nanometer chips. This year, we have produced seven-nanometer chips. I believe that sooner or later we will have five-nanometer and three-nanometer chips! 】

[The nationally produced 5G Kirin is really awesome! It’s a bit awesome. If I remember correctly, this is the third year that supply has been cut off. It’s been three years. It’s awesome! 】

The release of the 5G Kirin chip stirred up waves and instantly aroused heated discussions on the Internet.

Even on the campus of Nanjing University, Xu Chuan heard many students and even professors discussing this matter.

After simply searching for relevant news through the browser, Xu Chuan was also a little surprised when he looked at the newly released 50 series mobile phones.

As a reborn person, he naturally knows the relevant chip information.

However, according to the original historical trend, the 5G Kirin 9000s chip should not be released on the 60 series mobile phones until next year, that is, in 2023.

I didn’t expect that my life would be one year ahead of schedule.

If there are no other external interference factors, it may be the problems he solved for Warwick before that accelerated the process.

Of course, Xu Chuan doesn't think he has much credit in this.

After all, Huawei and Huaxin, which have spent several years polishing chip design and manufacturing, already have strong design and manufacturing capabilities. Even without his previous help, they will be able to successfully complete the Kirin chip in another year. design and manufacturing.

At most, he helped solve some problems and moved the time forward a little. The key is not him.

However, the emergence of domestic 5G chips made another thought flash in his mind.

In his hand, there is another theory that has been completed.

And that paper is enough to provide a theoretical basis for the construction of topological quantum materials.

"Would you like to find Warwick to cooperate?"
