Top Student

"I'm not bragging to you. In our project team, there are experts from all over the country, but I am also a prominent figure in the project team. Without me, the project would definitely not be so easy to succeed..."

Chen Pingqiu did have a certain status in the project team, but it was not to an indispensable degree.

Apart from his rich experience, Chen Pingqiu did not contribute any key technologies to the project.

Of course, the teachers and students in these experimental groups did not know exactly what Chen Pingqiu did in the project group.

In their eyes, being able to enter such a mysterious project team is already a very powerful thing.

"Professor Chen is really amazing! Professor Chen and Xu You, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics, are also scientists of the same level, right?"

"That Xu You is indeed very powerful, but he doesn't study materials. In the field of materials science, he is still incomparable with Professor Chen."

Chen Pingqiu waved his hands with a smile and said:

"Don't put it that way, that guy Xu You is really talented. Not only does he study superconductivity, but he is also an expert in materials. Of course, in terms of experience, he certainly can't compare with our senior material experts. At that time, we did In the forming experiment of superconducting materials, I am the only one who is proficient in the actual operation of the equipment. If it were not for me, that kind of material would not be able to be made into a wire-ribbon structure.”

Chen Pingqiu portrayed himself as the mainstay of the project team, as if he was really the most important member of the team.

In the flattery of the crowd.

Chen Pingqiu was in a great mood, as if he had reached the top of the academic world, and he kept accepting everyone's toasts.

The alcohol that cannot be directly metabolized by Chen Pingqiu acts on Chen Pingqiu's central system.

Alcohol inhibited the normal function of Chen Pingqiu's cerebral cortex, making Chen Pingqiu gradually lose control of his limbic nervous system.

In this state, Chen Pingqiu became more and more talkative.

"Let me tell you a secret. It's not a secret. It will definitely be announced in the future."

Hearing Chen Pingqiu's words, everyone's attention was attracted.

As people in the academic circle, they are naturally very interested in these academic secrets.

"In Jijing, a kilometer-level high-temperature superconducting cable is about to be built. The project has passed the review and entered the preparation stage. It is estimated that this project will start soon."

Chen Pingqiu felt that since this was a project that was about to start, he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.

It's not a big deal to tell the people in the experimental group a few days in advance.

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard the news.

"Professor Chen, is it the 202K high-temperature superconductor you mentioned last time?" A teacher asked.

At this time, Chen Pingqiu suddenly realized that he had made a mistake.

"Don't talk nonsense. When did I say that there is a 202K high-temperature superconductor? It's okay, you don't know about it, and you are all being spread out. If you let me know who is talking about it, I will take it You try."

"Don't worry, Professor Chen, we all have a plan in our hearts, and we will definitely not talk nonsense."

Originally, they were expecting that Chen Pingqiu would be able to reveal some more details.

Chen Pingqiu's sudden hesitation made everyone a little disappointed.

However, they also know that these things cannot be said in the first place.

Soon, everyone continued to chat hotly.

At this moment, a person in the corner seemed to have something on his mind, and his eyes kept turning.

After the dinner was over, everyone came out of the restaurant drunk.

After this round, they all drank less, and some of them staggered a little when they walked.

"Everyone had a great time drinking today. I will give you half a day off tomorrow, so you don't have to go to the laboratory in the morning." Chen Pingqiu said.

"Thank you Professor Chen!"

After parting from the hotel entrance.

The teachers either called for a driver, or took a taxi, and went home separately.

The students carpooled together and returned to school.

"Professor Chen is so kind. He not only invited us to dinner, but also specially gave us half a day off."

"Yeah, we don't have to get up early tomorrow morning."

"Thinking that Professor Chen can have such brilliant achievements, as a material person, I don't feel so hard."

After returning to the dormitory, the students were very sleepy, and soon they all lay on the bed and fell asleep.

At this time, a student suddenly opened his eyes, and his expression seemed to be struggling.

After hesitating for a while, he still made a decision.

Turn on the phone, enter a chat software, and quickly tap the virtual keyboard on the screen with your fingertips.

...

On this day, the major mainstream media in Huaguo released such news:

"my country's second kilometer-level high-temperature superconducting cable started construction in Jijing today."

Click into the title, and there are very few specific descriptions about the news.

Only the length of this high-temperature superconducting cable, some meanings and so on are explained.

Regarding this high-temperature superconducting cable, what material it is made of, what is the superconducting critical temperature, and even key information such as the estimated power transmission efficiency, are not mentioned in the news.

Because the news said that this is the second kilometer-level high-temperature superconducting cable in my country, many people think that this is not a big news, but just a promotion of the previous high-temperature superconducting cable.

But some netizens who understand the practical facts of science and technology got some other information from this news.

"I remember that we have already researched 150K high-temperature superconducting materials. According to this analysis, this time our high-temperature superconducting cables are likely to use this new high-temperature superconducting material."

"In the previous high-temperature superconducting cables in Shanghai, the main material used for the conductive layer should be Bi2223 tape. The superconducting critical temperature of this material is about 110 K, and it needs to be cooled by liquid nitrogen to reach the superconducting critical temperature. If The use of 150K high-temperature superconducting materials also requires liquid nitrogen to cool down, but because the superconducting critical temperature has been increased by 40K, it will reduce a certain amount of cold source investment and save power transmission costs.”

"I don't know how much application value this high-temperature superconducting cable will have in the future. Overall, will it be cheaper than conventional cables?"

"The construction price is definitely more expensive than conventional cables, and the technology is relatively less mature than conventional cables, but this must be a major trend in the future. Even in order to create a superconducting environment, it is necessary to use a cold source to cool down, but there is almost no The power loss is really too sweet."

"If the technology of high-temperature superconducting cables can be matured, our demand for controllable nuclear fusion will not be so urgent."
