Chapter 468 Old equipment? High-end equipment? Nolan is in a dilemma!
Wang Hao has been working in the capital recently.
As the person in charge of the nuclear fusion project, he has to participate in many meetings, including the highest decision-making meetings, as well as relevant technical academic meetings.
In addition, he also needs to handle matters related to the nuclear fusion project.
Although most routine affairs are handled by Tang Jianjun, Wang Ye and others, he is the overall person in charge of the project and cannot leave the capital at this time.
After hearing what Teacher Xu said, Wang Hao came directly to the science and technology department. He asked Teacher Xu with confusion, "You mean cooperation? Annihilation organization?"
"Didn't Novotny come here last time? I talked a lot with him. There is something to learn from their research, but they shouldn't be qualified to cooperate with us, right?"
Teacher Xu said, "I thought so at first, but then I thought, wouldn't the nuclear fusion project require a lot of imported high-precision equipment and materials?"
"The materials are better, but some high-precision equipment is not that easy to solve."
"So, is it possible to cooperate in some way?"
Wang Hao asked doubtfully, "Aren't you afraid of leaking secrets when we cooperate? Now that we are using DC annihilation field technology, they can guess a lot of things just by looking at the equipment."
"So I ask you..."
Teacher Xu spread his hands and said, "Is there a way to cooperate with them that will not cause technology leakage?"
"..."
Wang Hao twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling a little pushy.
Not afraid of leaks?
cooperate?
As long as it is technical cooperation, there will definitely be a risk of leaks!
DC annihilation field technology must not be leaked. Even if you just let them take a look at the equipment, the other party may think of 'DC technology'. After all, they are professionals in related fields, and the details of the equipment will reveal a lot.
The Annihilation Organization and the Groom Lake Project project team are both in the research direction of superimposed force fields.
This direction is severely restricted.
Even if the strength of the created annihilation force field is increased to 20 times, what is created is a thin layer of strong annihilation force field, and the technology can only stay at the laboratory stage.
Of course, research in the same direction still has merit.
For example, F-rays.
Judging from the experimental progress disclosed by the Annihilation Organization, they are very close to discovering F-rays, but they also need to conduct research in related directions.
If they are given a little inspiration, they may be able to discover f-rays soon.
However, as long as they are still conducting research in the direction of superimposed force fields, there is no need to worry about their ability to control f-rays. On the one hand, the high-pressure mixed material foundation will make the equipment very unstable.
Second, the equipment is too large and the f-rays produced cannot leave the laboratory.
This was the case with the F-rays initially produced by the Antigravity Behavior Research Center. A large amount of investment could only be made to excite F-rays for research. Even the release direction could not be controlled with high precision, and the intensity could only be roughly determined through the magnetization reaction of the material.
Detection.
etc.
Wang Hao thought seriously and suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember that there is an abandoned superposition force field device in the anti-gravity center."
"We have done a lot of experiments with that equipment, and it can create a thin layer of strong annihilation force field with a maximum power of 5.8 times."
"When Novotny's team came, I took him to visit."
"otherwise……"
"We trade this abandoned device with them?"
Teacher Xu asked, "Is there any technology that needs to be kept secret? If they are allowed to study it freely, will it..."
He is still worried about technology leaks.
Wang Hao shook his head funny, "Since we want to exchange high-precision equipment and materials, how can it be possible if we don't give anything?"
"The magnetic field device of that equipment has been removed, so there is no need to worry about the leakage of F-ray information. Then there are two main things left, one is the high-voltage mixed material, and the other is the layout of the underlying material."
"The performance of the high-pressure hybrid materials we developed is not necessarily better than theirs. However, judging from public data, coupled with material layout technology, the anti-gravity field strength we created is three to five points higher than theirs.
So the annihilation field created by our device is stronger."
"It's these two that are worth noting."
"For us now, high-pressure hybrid materials have been eliminated, and they are still doing research in this direction..."
Wang Hao just mentioned it briefly.
Teacher Xu's eyes lit up when he heard this, "We sell equipment to them just to help them go further on this road?"
Wang Hao pursed his lips hard.
Leading your opponent to take detours may sound a bit sinful.
So what he said was only half of what he said.
Moreover, they just want to use old equipment in exchange for needed equipment and materials. As for whether other institutions will be affected by this, it has nothing to do with them.
Teacher Xu thought for a moment and continued to ask, "You said that device can create a force field with a power of 5.8 times. If high magnetic interference is added and a built-in nuclear reactor is added, how strong is the field force it can create?"
"About 7 times."
"Only seven times?"
"right."
Wang Hao explained, "Magnetic field extrusion can increase the intensity of the annihilation force field, but the improvement is very limited, as is the built-in high heat source."
"Relying on that piece of equipment and the technology they have mastered, it is possible for them to create an annihilation force field with a power of seven times, even higher..."
He said and shook his head.
Teacher Xu naturally believed in the data given by Wang Hao.
Wang Hao is the most professional person in the research direction of annihilation force fields. No one knows this better than him.
Teacher Xu thought for a moment, "I remember that the person in charge of the Groom Lake Project seemed to have said that the new equipment they built can create seven times the field force."
"I know that too, but I guess it's just a target."
Wang Haodao, "They still use the technology of the Annihilation Organization's 'second generation' equipment. Even if they make some improvements and strengthen the built-in nuclear reaction intensity, I estimate that it can reach 6.5 times, which is pretty good."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Okay then."
Teacher Xu nodded and said, "I will discuss it with the others. Academician Wang, please go back to Xihai University when you have time to see the condition of the equipment."
Wang Hao understood what Teacher Xu meant.
Teacher Xu is worried about the possibility of key technology leaks on the equipment. After all, some inadvertent designs may leak information.
Wang Hao dealt with the work at hand, put down the meeting arrangements for the next week, and returned to Xihai University without stopping.
He found Yan Jing, Xiang Qiansheng, Liu Yunli and others, and formed a small specialized team to analyze and study the condition of the old equipment.
This analysis and research will also require a detailed report to ensure that there is no possibility of key technology leaks on older equipment.
…
International Annihilation Theory Organization.
After Bill Bryan contacted the technology department in the name of the organization, he ignored it. He never thought that the technology department would agree to technical cooperation.
Compared with the technology of Wang Hao's team, they have no advantages at all. Cooperation is equivalent to one-way learning.
No one will agree to this kind of cooperation.
But on the third day, Crom Bob, who was specifically responsible for handling similar matters, found Bill Bryan in surprise, "The science and technology department gave a reply. You can't believe what they said."
Bill Bryan asked in confusion, "You won't scold us directly, will you?"
"of course not."
Crom-Bob said, "They said they would let higher-level officials, people who are qualified to talk about technical cooperation in other areas, come over to talk."
"ah?"
Bill Bryan was also surprised and immediately asked, "What else?"
"In their reply, they mentioned a high-end strong annihilation field equipment, which can produce a strong annihilation force field close to 6 times the normal speed."
Crom-Bob said it very seriously.
This is indeed a very high-end equipment for them, because their "second-generation equipment" can only produce a strong annihilation force field close to 5 times the power.
Everyone knows that equipment upgrades will become smaller and smaller.
Conventional strong annihilation force field equipment with a power of nearly 6 times will definitely exceed the so-called "third generation equipment" they demonstrated.
Although the science and technology department's reply did not specifically talk about how to cooperate, there are some things that need not be made too clear.
They just use equipment as a bargaining chip to cooperate in certain aspects.
Bill Bryan understood and talked to Yuray Novotny. When Novotny heard the value of 'close to 6 times', he immediately thought of what he saw when he went to the Antigravity Behavior Research Center. Taiwan's 'high-end strong annihilation force field equipment'.
When He Yi introduced it, he said the specific data, "The highest rate exceeds 5.8 times."
That's close to 6x.
"Normally, they would not have two strong annihilation field generating devices with similar performance." Novotny paused and continued, "The device they are talking about should be the one I saw."
"How about it?"
“It’s awesome!”
Novotny said, "I looked around carefully, and there are a lot of things we can learn from it. In addition, you also know what a factor close to 6 times means..."
Brian nodded vigorously.
If the strength of the conventional annihilation force field can reach 6 times, coupled with the built-in nuclear reactor and outer magnetic field interference, the field strength may be close to 7 times.
This is so attractive!
Ronald Nolan, the leader of the Groom Lake Project team, claimed that their new equipment can create an annihilation field with a power of 7 times.
But in fact, the possibility is very low.
They use the same high-pressure mixed materials, and the layout of the underlying materials cannot be significantly modified. Conventionally, they can create a strong annihilation force field with a power of 5.5 times, which is already very good.
If the organization can obtain the high-end equipment from Wang Hao's team, the performance of the third-generation equipment manufactured will definitely surpass that of the Groom Lake Project team.
This also means that they can get a lot of support.
Now they are manufacturing third-generation equipment, but the reason why they cannot get financial support is mainly due to the impact of the Groom Lake Project.
The performance of the new equipment cannot exceed that of the Groom Lake Project Team. They are still only the ‘third in the world’. Excluding the camp of flower growers, they can only be ranked second.
In other words, the last one.
Our technology is already at the bottom of the list, so naturally we don’t care if we can continue to improve.
If the 'third generation equipment' can surpass the Groom Lake Project, they will still be the first in the world excluding flower growers, and will naturally attract more support and attention.
By then, raising funds will no longer be a problem.
…
The International Annihilation Theory Organization submitted the information.
The relevant participating countries and institutions also attached great importance to the organization, and they specially set up a team to go to the flower growers to negotiate.
This negotiation is nominally a business negotiation, and there are some relevant officials in the team, but the core still hopes to purchase the "high-end equipment" of the Antigravity Behavior Research Center.
In Wang Hao's eyes, old equipment is something that has been eliminated for several generations. It is impossible to continue to use it in the future. If it is left behind, it can only be left in a corner to gather dust.
Until one day it is determined to be discarded, it will be treated as garbage.
However, the Annihilation organization doesn't see it that way.
Relevant negotiators don’t see it that way either. They believe that what the science and technology department brought out is ‘previous generation equipment’, and the direct evidence is the strength of the annihilation force field.
The technology currently mastered by the Antigravity Behavior Research Center can create a strong annihilation force field with a maximum power of more than 8 times, and the equipment they come up with can routinely create a force field with a power close to 6 times. After adding magnetic field interference and a built-in nuclear reactor, it can even be
Can create a 7x force field.
Compared to the '8x', isn't the '7x' the previous generation device?
"If we can get this piece of equipment, we can master higher-end technology. The 7x multiplier has exceeded the critical value of iron element upgrade."
"In addition, we can also research some key information from the equipment, such as the technology related to the new generation equipment of Wang Hao's team..."
"this is very important!"
The negotiation team is determined to get the equipment. They have been given high authority and are indeed sincere in negotiating technical cooperation.
The two sides have been negotiating for two weeks and have reached an agreement on basic cooperation.
The general content of the cooperation is to exchange "high-end equipment" with superimposed force fields for home gardening, exchanging several banned high-precision equipment, including two very advanced high-end lathes.
At the same time, there are also some banned high-end materials.
etc.
The International Annihilation Theory Organization has also taken action within the organization. They don't want the 'high-end equipment' they have fought for to be stolen by Kubo and others who have no bottom line.
But they have no way to directly kick American away. After all, American is nominally an important participating country in the organization.
Bill Bryan and other organization leaders decided not to allow Cooper and others to participate in related work, even daily experiments and equipment maintenance.
Cooper and others were 'idled'.
At the same time, representatives from some participating countries and institutions also called for Amerikan to be kicked out of the organization for "not paying".
There are many such voices, and they have even spread to media public opinion.
Bryan came out publicly and said in an interview, "They can either continue to fulfill the contract and replenish the funds to support the organization, or they can open up the Groom Lake project."
"Otherwise, leave!"
In fact, Brian only made a verbal appeal. It is not easy to kick American out of the organization. Most of the participating countries and institutions must agree and hold relevant meetings.
However, the impact is still there.
Amrican has assigned all research related to strong annihilation force field technology to the Groom Lake Project project team. Even its support for the Annihilation organization uses the reserve funds of the Groom Lake Project.
In such an atmosphere of public opinion, the Groom Lake project team became very embarrassed and passive, and they were definitely unwilling to continue investing.
That's a big deal of at least US$4 billion.
Their focus is on their own projects. They don't feel bad spending $4 billion on new equipment, but spending $4 billion to support the Annihilation organization is different.
Annihilation Organization is just an alternative.
What the Groom Lake Project team cares about is not public opinion, but the next choice. Of course they know the trends of the Annihilation Organization, know that they have successfully negotiated cooperation with flower growers, and even know the details of the 'high-end equipment' they purchased.
Performance information.
Routinely manufacture a powerful annihilation force field with a power of 5.8 times!
This puts the relevant decision-makers in a dilemma, because the new equipment they want to manufacture theoretically has a conventional field force of only about 5.5 times.
More than US$6 billion has been invested in the manufacturing of new equipment, and further investment will continue, with estimates reaching a minimum of US$8 billion.
The new equipment created in this way cannot keep up with the "third generation" equipment of the International Annihilation Theory Organization.
At that time, they will become the ‘last one’ again.
If the manufacturing of new equipment is suspended and the Annihilation organization is supported to conduct research together, the delay is unknown for how long, and more than 4 billion US dollars will be invested in supporting the Annihilation organization.
Funding for the Groom Lake program is limited.
"What on earth are we going to do?" Ronald Nolan was overwhelmed thinking about it.
