Principal Zhou, Tang Zhigao, Huo Liang and other school leaders led a group of people into the activity room talking and laughing happily.
This activity room was originally a conference room and was later converted into a high-standard executive reception hall.
Those who can use this place are usually distinguished guests, at least at the principal level.
"Academician Luo, Dean Liang, please come this way."
"Principal Zhou please."
People on both sides exchanged greetings, and the guests and hosts took their seats.
Professor Tang Zhigao sat on the right side of President Zhou. He kept smiling and raised his hand to look at his watch.
Ye Ming finally went to the company today to perform his CTO duties, and now... there was a "surprise attack" from XJiaotong.
——Even if Professor Tang was still protective of Ye Ming, he had to admit that XJiaotong's enthusiasm and investment in the fusion reactor were truly sparing no effort.
Not only did they come up with a design plan that had been "treasured for many years" from the beginning, but they also sent a top team that did practical work, and they usually have the closest communication with us here.
For this "leap forward" commercial demonstration reactor, today is a good day, and the "relationship" has been directly extended to the State Nuclear Corporation.
Luo Qi, chief engineer of the State Nuclear Corporation, academician of the Academy of Engineering, and alumnus of XJiao Tong.
Of course, issues involving this level cannot be decided by ordinary "relationships". In a sense, Chief Engineer Luo brought a large group of people here today as the chief engineer of the State Nuclear Power Plant, which also represents
This is the attitude towards the Western Conference’s controllable fusion this time, or the final review.
"Is Mr. Luo a native of this province?" Dean Zhou suppressed his cigarette cravings and asked with a smile as he picked up the tea cup.
"Yes, and speaking of it, Ye Ming and I are not far apart. We are half fellow villagers." Mr. Luo chuckled and glanced at the door: "I thought he would use fusion when designing.
If they are piled up in my hometown, I can take advantage of them."
Everyone laughed when they heard Mr. Luo's joke.
Principal Zhou and Professor Tang exchanged glances without leaving any trace, and then looked at Dean Liang opposite.
Several people knew it immediately.
Mr. Luo's words may seem like a joke, but combined with his identity and this visit... it actually shows too much.
First of all, as far as the provincial government is concerned, the country recognizes Ye Ming’s leading position in the fusion topic.
As principal and dean, Zhou and Tang were naturally proud and honored.
Secondly, it is necessary to take a step forward to commercial demonstration reactors, which involves not ordinary projects, but the entire country's power and power grid system.
As a scientific research unit, the Western University Alliance can only propose design plans and technical ideas. As for how to realize it, it depends on the "construction units", especially experienced units.
China National Nuclear Corporation obviously has experience.
Finally, this "one-stop" commercial demonstration reactor obviously does not belong to a certain school or a certain scientific research unit, but to a certain group in the power system.
You can't set up a Western University Electric Power Group!
Then, the chief engineer of the State Nuclear Power Plant comes over...
This means that this time it is very exciting!
A group of elders were chatting, and just when Professor Tang was about to escape and make a phone call, Ye Ming's figure appeared at the door.
…
After one hour.
"...Academician Luo, this is our current solution to the problems that may be encountered during the operation of commercial demonstration reactors."
Ye Ming stood in front of the whiteboard, unscrewed the mineral water bottle, took a sip, and exhaled softly: "We can think that the biggest constraint of this demonstration reactor is not whether it can continue to operate."
"It's about the cost of fusion materials. Although deuterium is cheap, tritium is not. Currently, the only commercial source of tritium in the world is Canada's 19 CANDU reactors. Even if we have designed a tritium value-added program, the cost is still very high."
Chief Engineer Luo nodded slightly: "In fact, we have now begun to design a tritium collection solution in the chain reactor, but compared to the demand, it is really a drop in the bucket."
"Yeah..." Ye Ming sighed: "So we still have to go to the sky and go to helium-3 fusion. Deuterium-tritium fusion is considered a practice."
Principal Zhou laughed: "Good guy, I'll give you tens of billions to practice my skills."
Chief Engineer Luo also smiled: "But it's worth practicing. The biggest problem now is that the solar energy of controllable nuclear fusion cannot be lit. As long as it can be lit, it will light up the technology tree of the future."
Ye Ming nodded with a smile: "Yes."
Principal Zhou looked at his watch and stood up: "It's dinner time, how about we eat first and chat while eating?"
Chief Engineer Luo also stood up: "Then let's do as guests please."
That night, in order to stay awake, Ye Ming did not drink.
In fact, no one here drank much, and they didn't talk about "business".
On the contrary, Chief Engineer Luo was very interested in the fusion engine mentioned by Ye Ming, and pulled him to ask for a long time.
The next day, everyone from the fusion research team of Western Universities gathered in place.
This time, the State Nuclear Power Group, headed by Chief Engineer Luo, threw away the gentleness and courtesy of yesterday and asked many tricky questions to the research team, some of which could even be considered deliberately provocative.
Seeing this group of people's "unforgettable views", everyone understood clearly that the group of State Nuclear Power was probably the "cooperating" unit in the future.
Although the State Nuclear Corporation is engaged in fission reactors, except for the different principles and designs, when implementing the power generation system, the construction ideas, materials, and construction know-how can be directly used.
Therefore, the people in the research team worked very hard.
A week later, on Christmas Day, a low-key red-headed document was sent.
At the same time, a silver Tesla sedan drove out of the parking lot downstairs of Jizhi Technology, and followed a BYD Han quietly towards the provincial highway.
…
In Tesla, Musk sat quietly in the center of the seat.
Looking at the BYD Han in front of him, his expression was extremely serious.
"Mike, do you know our biggest rival?"
"Isn't it the front?" The assistant pointed to the front.
"Your answer is very cunning." Musk paused: "But you are right, both the car and the people in the car are."
"These days, every time I dream, I dream that Jizhi Technology announces its entry into the automobile market and the aerospace field."
Musk frowned, looking worried.
"So, do you really want to buy them?"
"Are you crazy? What should I buy it for?"
Musk exhaled softly.
The assistant shrugged, but he didn't laugh it off as usual.
Because he knew that over the past week, his boss, the arrogant, arrogant, joke-loving, and boastful technology geek, had indeed fallen into some kind of anxiety over the past week.
This kind of anxiety has caused him to suffer from insomnia for a long time.
