Chapter 31 Science and Technology Competition
No surprise.
This issue of "Science" has caused quite a stir in academic circles in the United States and even the entire world.
Especially when people discovered that this paper published in the world's top journal "Science" turned out to be an undergraduate thesis.
It has aroused heated discussions among countless people!
This paper even became popular in academic circles!
On Twitter, countless netizens expressed their shock.
"God, why are there such big differences between people?"
"Wtf?! I just graduated with a science subject as my undergraduate degree, what will I do next?!"
"Are all Xia Guo's undergraduates so good?!"
"Wait, why are your concerns so strange? Shouldn't you focus on the content of the paper? Since being kicked out of iter, Xia's controllable nuclear fusion technology has surpassed that of the United States!"
"This is strange. I remember that iter said that Xia Guo had stolen experimental data. Does Xia Guo really care about iter's experimental data?"
"@Trump, Mr. President, come out and explain? Is the United States going to be surpassed by Xia Guo?"
“@Trump, tell me, where are all our taxpayers’ money going?!”
…
Unlike those netizens on the Internet who are watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, there is a depressing atmosphere in the office of the President of the United States at this time.
"Bang!"
Trump, who had blond hair, slapped the desk in front of him hard and looked at the man in front of him with a gloomy expression.
"Anthony, I need an explanation!"
"Why does Xia Kingdom suddenly possess such advanced controllable nuclear fusion technology?!"
"And what are they doing on the iter side? There are so many top scientists, but they can't do it for an undergraduate from Xia State?"
"Are you kidding me?!"
“You know what my fans are saying about me on Twitter?!”
Anthony looked gloomy and opened his mouth, but no words came out.
The white-haired Professor Collins on the side stepped forward and said in a hoarse voice: "Your Excellency, this matter... was my mistake."
"Xia Guo's research speed on controllable nuclear fusion has exceeded my expectations."
Seeing Professor Collins speak, Trump's expression softened slightly: "Then... Professor, what do you think the United States should do next?"
Collins' eyes flashed when he heard the president's question.
After pondering for a moment, Collins slowly said: "Your Excellency, the President, the United States must speed up its action!"
"We must not lag behind Xia Guo in terms of controllable nuclear fusion."
Trump nodded thoughtfully, then, with a slight movement in his eyes, he picked up a document from his desk and handed it to Professor Collins.
"Professor, Congress has agreed to your plan and even provided 10% more funding."
Professor Collins' eyes showed a bit of joy, and he stretched out his hand to receive the document.
But Trump's voice rang out again.
"However, there is a condition."
"Congress requires that the first controllable nuclear fusion experimental device must be built within three years!"
Collins' expression changed drastically: "Mr. President, this is impossible!"
"Three years is too short!"
Collins' head was shaking like a rattle!
What a joke!
Three years to build a large Tokamak facility?
You know, iter took more than ten years to build!
Three years?
I guess the foundation hasn’t even been laid yet!
"I don't care about that, that's what Congress said." Trump shrugged and said nonchalantly, "If you can't do it, someone will take your place."
Professor Collins' expression darkened.
This is indeed true.
This is a fat mess!
I don’t know how many people in the American academic community are staring eagerly at this piece of fat!
Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared on Collins' face.
"In that case...then I'll try my best."
Trump nodded with satisfaction and repeated meaningfully: "Remember, you only have three years!"
Collins nodded bitterly.
…
That night, Trump's Twitter account uploaded a video.
In the video, Trump sat behind the president's desk with a serious face and said seriously: "First of all, on behalf of the United States, I would like to congratulate Xia Guo for successfully operating controlled nuclear fusion in the laboratory."
"In the past two days, I have seen many people asking me a question on Twitter."
"Is the United States about to be surpassed by Xia Guo? In other words, how is the development of the United States' controllable nuclear fusion technology?"
"Here, let me respond to your questions in a unified manner."
"The United States has always been committed to the research of controllable nuclear fusion technology!"
"From now on, iter will restart the controllable nuclear fusion experiment. At the same time, the United States will build a large-scale controllable nuclear fusion experimental device within three years!"
"Believe me, in three years, you will be able to use electricity from nuclear fusion!"
…
At the same time that Trump tweeted, the official account of Xia Guo News posted a message.
Xia Guo News: From now on, the Xia Guo controllable nuclear fusion demonstration reactor project has been officially approved.
Due to the time difference, the time in Beijing at this moment is 6 o'clock in the morning.
Even so, in just a few minutes, Xia Guo News' scarf was flooded with countless netizens watching the excitement.
"Good guy! I call him good guy!"
"Is this a demonstration reactor? Does it mean... that controllable nuclear fusion technology is mature?"
"What the hell? Why do I feel like the sky has changed when I wake up?"
"Interesting, the United States also released a news at the same time. Trump uploaded a video about controllable nuclear fusion on Twitter. If you are interested, you can check it out."
"Kneel down and beg the boss to move it!"
"Please move 1!"
"10086!"
"..."
It has to be said that the efficiency of netizens is extremely powerful, especially when it comes to eating melons, they can always unleash unprecedented potential!
Within ten minutes, a high-definition video with subtitles was uploaded to the scarf.
Some people even simplified the video content, converted it into text, and compared it with the content released by Xia Guo News.
When the contents of the two were put together by someone who was interested, public opinion completely exploded!
"Holy shit, shit, shit?! It feels like Xia Guo is going to fight against Mi Guo!"
"Don't tell me, it really smells like this!"
"I think of the arms race that the United States engaged in before."
"..."
As people started discussing, a new word instantly became a hot search topic for scarves!
"Technology Competition"
Under the instruction of Xia Guo's senior management, Xia Guo News' scarf account quietly updated another scarf.
"We will never forget the humiliation suffered by Xia Guo's scientific researchers in the iter plan!"
"Controllable nuclear fusion technology is the key to opening the door to the future interstellar era."
"Xia Guo will never give up controllable nuclear fusion technology to us!"
In just a few words, the already heated atmosphere on the scarf was directly ignited!
Countless netizens burst into tears!
How many years!
Xia Guo finally got tough for once!
"I will not regret entering the Xia Kingdom in this life, and I would like to grow flowers in the next life!"
Chapter completed!
