Chapter 384: On the Electricity of Weighing

 "The pistol is a bit heavy. Professor Du, just take a look at it."

There are no bullets inside, so Zhou Jimin is not afraid.

But for safety reasons, he still didn't let the other party pick up the electromagnetic gun.

After the other party read it again, he asked again:

"Professor Du, you should be able to guess what this pistol is, right?"

Du Jianmin took a deep breath, and he already had some vague guesses in his mind.

Therefore, he said to Zhou Jimin with a slight trembling:

"Electromagnetic gun?"

Although this guess is very absurd.

But I'm afraid that's the answer.

As expected, Zhou Jimin soon smiled and nodded:

"Professor Du, your guess is really accurate. Come on, I will take it apart and show it to you now."

Wang Changwu and Wang Ping'an suddenly said, "Professor Zhou, I'm afraid this is inappropriate?"

Although Du Jianmin is also a professor at Oasis New City, naturally one less person knows about these new weapons, so the secret can reduce the risk of exposure.

Zhou Jimin chuckled, "It doesn't matter, even if my electromagnetic guns are studied by others, they won't be successful within a hundred years."

"And I can also tell you directly that it has something to do with the material. This material is definitely far more difficult than imagined."

Haha!

Having said that, Zhou Jimin had already dismantled the electromagnetic gun.

The spare parts inside are very clear.

Du Jianmin, Wang Pingan, Wang Changwu and others all stared at the parts of the electromagnetic gun.

However, Wang Ping'an and the others did not understand, but Du Jianmin took a deep breath again.

"Is this an electromagnetic gun? Can it be compared with an ordinary pistol?"

Faced with Du Jianmin's doubts, Zhou Jimin did not answer, but quickly assembled the parts, and then pointed directly at the small sand pile more than a thousand meters ahead.

The bullet is made of solid steel. After being fired, it lands behind a small pile of sand and has a power similar to that of a mortar shell.

Seeing such a powerful electromagnetic gun, Wang Ping'an and other soldiers' eyes lit up.

This is simply a personal weapon.

"A fully charged electromagnetic gun can fire five thousand times continuously, so as long as there are enough bullets, it's not a problem at all."

When Zhou Jimin was changing the magazine, Yun Danfeng said softly:

"The farthest range is three thousand kilometers, the effective range is one thousand eight hundred kilometers, and the maximum lethality range is ten meters."

"Professor Du, do you think this electromagnetic gun is acceptable?"

What does it mean to be passable?

This special meow is super invincible, okay?

Wang Ping'an and others were so excited that they were speechless, but they didn't have the chance to speak.

Because Zhou Jimin was still shooting at this time and did not stop at all.

This electromagnetic gun is really awesome. Although you still need to change the magazine, it is already very awesome.

The cost of bullets alone has already saved a lot.

After all, pure high-quality steel bullets cost much less than ordinary bullets.

After firing more than a hundred shots, Zhou Jimin had no choice but to give up.

"It's too boring, Lao Wang, please come and help me."

In fact, there is no need to continue shooting now.

The small pile of sand ahead says it all.

But Zhou Jimin pursues perfection and does what he says.

Firearms will not cause other problems, such as overheating, electromagnetic explosion, etc.

So testing is necessary.

Wang Changwu and Wang Pingan were immediately happy. They took the electromagnetic gun from Zhou Jimin and started shooting.

After more than an hour, the electromagnetic gun finally ran out of power.

After the battery is out of power, you can directly replace the battery, and then you can continue shooting.

At this moment, Du Jianmin was completely convinced.

Even the electromagnetic gun has been taken out, can the electromagnetic gun still be fake?

After all, the electromagnetic gun is different from ordinary artillery shells. If you want to miniaturize it and change it from an electromagnetic gun to an electromagnetic gun, it is more technically difficult.

Subsequent tests also proved Du Jianmin's guess.

A hilltop a few kilometers away was directly razed to the ground by the bombardment of the electromagnetic gun.

It’s extremely scary.

With such huge power, electromagnetic guns can definitely be used in the military field.

Du Jianmin's previous statement that "it is impossible for the mainland to realize electromagnetic gun technology within twenty years" is self-defeating.

At this moment, Du Jianmin didn't know whether he was shocked by the huge noise of the electromagnetic gun, and fell to the ground.

The embarrassed look is a bit funny.

Zhou Jimin pretended not to notice, lest the other party be further embarrassed.

Wang Changwu and Wang Ping'an have already sent people to notify higher-level leaders to come over.

Then he pulled Zhou Jimin aside and asked about the order for electromagnetic gun technology.

Who knew, Zhou Jimin waved his hand and said:

"Don't think about it. It can't be scaled up in a short time anyway, because I have just revealed some very important information to you, and that is the problem of materials."

Liquid red metal is extracted from the air outside the space wall and used for scientific research. For Zhou Jimin, it is not a big problem.

After all, scientific research does not have a large demand for liquid red metal.

However, once it is achieved on a large scale and equipped for the troops, it will not be realistic.

More importantly, now that Zhou Jimin has also discovered the abnormal properties of liquid red metal in storing electrical energy, how can it be used in low-end things like electromagnetic guns?

When they heard Zhou Jimin's refusal without hesitation, Wang Changwu and Wang Changwu became anxious.

In their view, if such a high-end advanced weapon such as electromagnetic gun is not deployed in the army, it will be a disaster.

"Professor Zhou, what materials are needed? We promise to complete the task!"

The two of them looked at Zhou Jimin very firmly, with very serious expressions.

The latter shook his head and said:

"Anyway, this matter is impossible. You don't need to tell me. I will report this matter to the superiors personally. You just wait for the news."

After saying that, he looked at Du Jianmin and said to Wang Ping'an:

"Professor Du's matter, please take care of it. Also consider these electromagnetic guns and electromagnetic guns as gifts from me to your troops."

Wang Ping'an and Wang Ping'an immediately nodded happily, but also begged Zhou Jimin to bring out the electromagnetic gun technology. No matter how big the difficulty is, I believe the higher-ups will solve it.

After hearing what the two of them said, Zhou Jimin rolled his eyes and left without looking back.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the door and before he left the military base, the leader had already arrived.

Coming so soon?

Behind the leader, Gu Haishan and others were standing nearby.

Zhou Jimin understood immediately. It was probably a coincidence, or his behavior today aroused the curiosity of the leader.

Now that the leader is here, Zhou Jimin has to stay.

After trying it again, the leader’s eyes lit up.

But then, when he heard Zhou Jimin say that it was impossible to equip a large army, the leader glared and breathed heavily:

"Why?"

"First, compared to other ordinary missiles and shells, the advantages of electromagnetic guns are not very obvious in terms of production cost or lethality."

"Second, electromagnetic gun technology is still in its infancy, and there is still a long way to go before it can be deployed in the army."

"The third and most important point is the material issue of battery technology."

The leader quickly grasped the key points of Zhou Jimin's words and immediately asked in detail the specific reasons.

In this regard, Zhou Jimin naturally would not directly talk about the materials, but mentioned other things in a roundabout way.

Material is a new element that has never existed on earth. If you want to develop it, it may cost hundreds of billions of yuan, but it may not be possible.

The battery technology he developed has obvious advantages in the aerospace field and other civilian fields, and can create more value.

"What new element is it? Since it is so difficult to obtain, Professor Zhou, how did you obtain it?"

Regarding new science and technology, leaders are also somewhat blind.

Especially the investment of hundreds of billions of yuan scared him even more.

"Leader, I can't reveal more specific things yet. In short, this is indeed the situation at the moment."

Zhou Jimin sighed and then said:

"I plan to cooperate with the space center in Oasis New City to see if it is possible to obtain other valuable raw materials from space to replace existing materials."

Zhou Jimin believes that other scientific researchers in Oasis New City can purify the existence of liquid red metal.

But it’s no use.

You have to know how to find its substitute from nature, and it has to be a substitute that is relatively easy to obtain and exists in large quantities on the earth.

Otherwise, just like the rare trace metals in nature on the periodic table of elements, it will be a lot of hard work to obtain them.

The meeting with the leader did not last long and ended quickly.

After leaving the military base, Zhou Jimin went directly to the Loulan Heritage Nuclear Power Plant.

He plans to continue to build two nuclear power plants here. These two nuclear power plants have only one purpose, and that is charging.

Taking advantage of the space, he quickly dug a huge underground space directly next to the nuclear power plant.

After solidifying the surrounding space, Zhou Jimin began to build the nuclear power plant.

The raw materials for nuclear power plants are all in space, which is something Zhou Jimin always has on hand.

Since the space was expanded, Zhou Jimin no longer regards it as a space, but as a private warehouse.

Therefore, there are many things that he can install directly in the space.

After installing the nuclear power plant and making a super fast charging device, Zhou Jimin took out the super lithium-air battery that had been made.

The super lithium-air battery is a battery that he tinkered with after some exploration and contained at least one or two liquid red metal substances.

Zhou Jimin himself only had a rough guess as to how much power this thing could store.

However, the actual value cannot be determined.

"Maybe it can charge four or five pounds of electricity?"

After talking to himself for a while, Zhou Jimin looked at the nuclear power plant that had begun to operate and generate electricity, and then looked at the charging progress display of the super lithium-air battery.

There is no progress of a few percent, indicating that it has just begun and has not yet reached a certain value.

Electricity is usually measured in terms of degrees and kilograms, which is very scary.

First of all, electricity cannot be described in units like kilograms, because electricity as energy has no mass. We can only use Einstein's mass-energy equation to calculate the equivalence relationship between energy and matter.

According to the "mass-energy equation" E=mc^2 formula given in Einstein's special theory of relativity, the calculation can be performed.

Where E represents energy, M represents mass, and C represents the only constant speed of light.

Therefore, one pound of electricity corresponds to 12.472 billion kilowatt hours of electricity.

In later generations, the Three Gorges Dam generated approximately 80-100 billion kilowatt-hours a year. In other words, it could produce six to eight kilograms of electricity a year.

"The electricity produced by the two nuclear power plants is only used to charge this super lithium-air battery. How long does it take to fully charge it? How many kilowatt-hours of electricity can it be charged?"

Zhou Jimin was very nervous about this.

He has already told Ding Qiunan and the others that he will temporarily disappear for about two days, otherwise they may be worried.

After a day, Zhou Jimin finally saw the 01% progress bar displayed on the progress bar.

Hiss!

According to the current situation, one nuclear power plant can generate more than 200 million kilowatt-hours of electricity a day, and two nuclear power plants, with a total of eight units generating electricity together, can provide 400 million kilowatt-hours of electricity every day.

However, one day can only fill 1%?

Based on this calculation, it takes one hundred days to fully charge the super lithium-air battery, which is 40 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity?

If calculated based on one kilogram of electricity, that is three point two kilograms of electricity.

"Well, although it just barely meets my expectations, it's still very impressive."

Zhou Jimin was immediately happy.

He left the surveillance camera behind, checked the safety issues again, and checked the situation around the entire Loulan historic site before leaving.

Returning to his home in Oasis New City, he stayed with Ding Qiunan and the others for two days, and then left again.

This time he needs to go to Bald Eagle to make a big purchase.

Because he needs to build several more nuclear power plants, then build several more super lithium-air batteries, and fully charge these batteries.

Then, he plans to build another space shuttle, and it will be a purely electric aircraft.

The plan is perfect, but we still don’t know whether it can be realized.

In New York, in the manor villa, Li Yuzhu was surprised when he saw Zhou Jimin holding Xiao Mengtian:

"Why are you here? Why don't you call me mom?"

The last sentence was spoken to Zhou Mengtian. The little guy is over three years old and can already run and jump.

"I came here specifically to see you, aren't you welcome?"

As he said that, Zhou Jimin had already entered.

The little one got out of her father's arms and ran away without wanting to be held by her mother.

I called my mother, but it was a bit perfunctory.

Is this child still alive?

Li Yuzhu looked at Zhou Jimin with great resentment, always feeling that he had brought up the child.

"Jimin, I want to have another child, but little Mengtian won't even kiss me."

"You can have a baby if you want, I'm not stopping you."

Zhou Jimin no longer thinks so much about his child's attitude.

It's all up to the woman to make the decision. No matter how many children he has, he can still afford them.

"Really?"

Li Yuzhu was immediately overjoyed. She had just made a casual comment.
