Chapter 290 Reaching Ten Million Influence

"The first batch of ilmenite-rich lunar soil will soon be transported by space elevator, which will bring us sufficient helium-3 resources."

"So research on controllable nuclear fusion technology must also be put on the agenda as soon as possible."

"Call this meeting today."

"The main discussion is whether to cooperate with overseas forces in research and development."

"Accepting their application to join the Controlled Fusion Research Program."

imperial capital.

Chinese Academy of Sciences Headquarters.

Yang Senping, who was sitting on the dean's seat in the conference hall, looked around the crowd and told the main purpose of the conference.

The Guanghan Palace Moon Base has been officially completed, and the news that the moon resources will be exploited must not be hidden from the other four superpowers of Beimeiyingfaxiong Kingdom and the others.

So they proposed cooperation at the joint meeting.

Gather the strength and resources of multiple forces around the world to jointly develop controllable nuclear fusion technology.

And by the way, it also attracted small forces such as Neon Hanguo.

Therefore.

After the live broadcast of the Guanghan Palace Moon Base, the overseas forces will send congratulations as soon as possible.

At present, the research on controllable nuclear fusion by all forces basically focuses on deuterium and tritium as nuclear fuel for fusion.

Deuterium is abundant in all water on Earth.

Tritium does not exist in nature.

Need to be produced by neutron bombardment of lithium.

however.

Nuclear fusion could become easier to achieve by shifting to helium-3, another isotope on the periodic table.

Helium-3 is a light and non-radioactive isotope of helium.

Fusion reactors using helium-3 could provide a highly efficient form of nuclear energy with little waste and negligible radiation.

However, helium-3 is almost non-existent on terrestrial stars.

And a small amount of helium-3 is also produced by geological activities and nuclear weapons tests.

On the contrary, it is abundant on the moon.

It can be said that whoever has mastered the helium-3 resource will be more confident in developing controllable nuclear fusion technology.

The artificial sun.

Completely change the energy structure of human civilization.

Those overseas forces are not fools. Seeing that Yanfang's space elevator is about to continuously transport helium-3 from the moon to the planet, there must be some actions to prepare in advance.

If they choose to cooperate in research together, then if controllable nuclear fusion is successfully conquered in the future, they will also be able to enjoy the convenience it brings.

But if you continue to rest on your laurels.

When Yanfang came up with an artificial sun on his own, their situation would be even worse.

At that time, its status in the international arena will further decline.

You need to look at other people's faces completely.

You must know that it was precisely because they chose to block the technology that Yan Fang himself conquered one advanced technology after another.

Until today, it has been completely crushed by future technology.

With the lessons learned before them, they will definitely not repeat the same mistakes.

For this reason, Tripp, who was the first to react, chose to put down his face and take the initiative to cooperate with other forces to express his desire to jointly develop controllable nuclear fusion technology with the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

In addition, he expressed his sincerity and promised to use all his technical experience in nuclear fusion research over the years.

Send the best scientists in this field to the Chinese Academy of Sciences to participate in research work.

It is no exaggeration to say that if this cooperation is achieved, it will be equivalent to concentrating the world's top forces to develop controllable nuclear fusion technology, and its progress will definitely be much faster than it is now.

Maybe within five years, the artificial sun will be conquered, and mankind will officially move towards a first-level civilization.

Since this matter has a great impact and is related to the future global structure, it must be carefully considered before making a decision.

What's more, adhering to professional matters is entrusted to professionals.

The above expressed support for the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

This very important decision-making power was handed over to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

As a result, Yang Senping, as the dean, was under tremendous pressure, and could only hold this meeting to get everyone to vote with a show of hands.

But should I say that the gold content of today's meeting is really high.

Everyone here is an academician.

Some people in related fields even deliberately came from branches all over the country to participate.

It is enough to prove the importance attached by the Chinese Academy of Sciences to this international joint cooperation.

But precisely because of the importance of this matter, after Yang Senping's opening remarks fell, the meeting hall could not help but fell into a brief silence.

Although everyone was thoughtful, no one spoke rashly.

Yang Senping was able to become the dean because he was an academician, and he understands what everyone thinks at this moment.

There are basically two views.

That is to say, he believes that he has enough strength to fight alone in the research of controllable nuclear fusion, and does not need the intervention of external forces.

The other feels that with the concerted efforts of the entire international community, the research on controllable nuclear fusion will definitely advance substantially, which is beneficial to the development of human civilization.

After all, time is everything in many cases.

The sooner you enter the first level of civilization, you will be able to guarantee your own safety in the galaxy.

In this way, even if the solar system is really invaded by alien civilizations one day, I believe that human beings can protect themselves.

Otherwise, human beings have not even mastered controllable nuclear fusion, and I am afraid that they will only be beaten.

However, a decision must be made in convening this meeting. Seeing the impasse, Yang Senping couldn't help frowning.

In the end, after a little hesitation, he still turned his attention to a middle-aged man beside him.

"Academician Li."

"You are the person in charge of the Luyang Science Island artificial sun project, and I think you have the most say in this matter."

"It's up to you to talk about your own opinion first?"

"Dean Yang, it's very embarrassing for you to push me out now!" Li Chengzhe who heard that he was named showed a wry smile: "Why don't you give me an idea."

"Okay, what do you say? The content of today's meeting is to let everyone speak freely and actively discuss." Yang Senping glanced at Li Chengzhe, and dropped this sentence again without question.

heard here.

Li Chengzhe also suddenly realized that he couldn't get past it.

As the person in charge of the Luyang Science Island artificial sun project, the team led by him has been developing controllable nuclear fusion technology for many years, and has also made breakthroughs leading the world.

At present, it has successfully achieved burning for 2 seconds at 100 million degrees Celsius.

Completely broke the world record.

In fact, when Yang Senping notified him to return to the headquarters of the Imperial Capital to attend this meeting, he guessed that he would inevitably express his opinion.

After all, who made him the project leader.

The key point is that he is more aware that the opinions of many academicians present are not very unified.

In the end, no matter what decision is made in the courtyard, some people will definitely be dissatisfied and think it is a wrong decision.

But now that Yang Senping has already spoken, he can't continue to hesitate, so he can only express his thoughts according to his own understanding.

"I think many people here know that most of our Science Island members have the experience of studying in overseas nuclear fusion research centers, including myself of course."

"Although we are temporarily ahead in the research of artificial suns, and have broken the world record."

"But we have to admit that overseas has a lot of technology and experience we need."

"There are other forces involved."

"I believe that controllable nuclear fusion technology will be overcome faster."

Like Pei Hongyin's ideal, Li Chengzhe also wants to see the advent of controllable nuclear fusion as soon as possible.

The best way to do this is undoubtedly joint research.

After all, they achieved the record of burning for [-] seconds at [-] million degrees Celsius, but this is still a long way from real controllable nuclear fusion.

It may even be stuck at a certain stage for life, and no new progress can be ushered in.

So he himself supports joint research.

In the past, the major forces restricted each other and restricted technology, and they would not share their own technology with each other.

This has led to the slow development of science and technology, and human civilization has never been able to formally enter the first level.

Right now, because of the space elevator and future technology, they have successfully persuaded them to take the initiative to show their favor. This is definitely a good opportunity for the development of controllable nuclear fusion technology.

What's more, Yan Fang is already in a leading position, even if the implementation of controllable nuclear fusion will not have any impact.

In this case, why not do it.

If nuclear fusion can really come out in advance, it will definitely be a good thing for human civilization.

And as Li Chengzhe's voice fell, the entire conference hall was suddenly silent, and everyone's face became very solemn, as if they were thinking about some important issues.

really.

Objections were soon raised.

"I do not agree to cooperate. Now that we can obtain lunar resources through space elevators, there is no need to share this convenience with overseas forces."

"I believe that with our own efforts, we can achieve controllable nuclear fusion."

"We were able to develop the atomic bomb back then. I believe that controllable nuclear fusion is not a problem today."

"I support Academician Li's point of view. Perhaps controlled nuclear fusion can really be born in our hands, but if we can come up with faster cooperation, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."

"There are nearly ten countries involved in this cooperation, and we are always the ones with the most say whether it is successful or not."

"With the emergence of space elevators, the value of lunar resources is far less than before, and cooperative research is feasible."

Seeing that the two groups began to argue, and even the entire conference hall became very lively, Yang Senping also knew that he could not continue to go offline, so he had to stand up and preside over the overall situation at this time.

"Stop arguing for now."

"The more the truth is debated, the clearer it is. This method must be correct first."

"It's just that if it continues like this, I'm afraid there will be no decision until dark. In my opinion, everyone should show their hands and vote for the minority to obey the majority."

It has to be said that Yang Senping is quite prestigious as the dean. After saying these words, the conference hall suddenly fell silent.

Although some people still have complaints in their hearts, they can only admit that this is the best way.

After all, it is impossible to choose a plan that most people do not support.

So I can only choose to acquiesce.

see this scene.

Yang Senping was also very satisfied, and then he spoke again: "Then please vote with a show of hands for the academicians who agree to conduct joint research."

The voice just fell.

Looking around, I saw many people raised their right hands.

At this point in the meeting, the result is already very obvious, that is, most people agree to jointly carry out research and development of controllable nuclear fusion with other overseas forces.

Although Yang Senping almost guessed the result, he still dealt with it in a matter-of-fact manner: "Everyone's decisions will be recorded and submitted in a report. If there is no problem and pass the review, this international research project team will be established soon. "

"Let's stop here for today's meeting, everyone can go back first."

As Yang Senping officially announced the end of the meeting, all the academicians in the meeting hall immediately got up and walked outside without any delay.

But just when Li Chengzhe was about to leave, Yang Senping's voice sounded beside his ears.

"Academician Li, wait a moment."

"President Yang, is there anything else you want to explain?" Li Chengzhe paused, turned around and looked at Yang Senping again, with some doubts in his eyes.

"Is such that."

"In my opinion, the cooperation is basically a certainty. As the person in charge of our artificial sun project, you must make preparations in advance."

"At that time, we will establish communication with scientists sent overseas, and strive to overcome controllable nuclear fusion as soon as possible."

This cooperation is led by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Therefore, once the project team is established, those overseas forces that choose to join the research will definitely send scientists in the field to assist in the research and development. After all, they belong to different nationalities. If they cannot get in place in a short period of time, it will definitely affect the controllable nuclear fusion. research progress.

Since Li Chengzhe proposed to agree to international cooperation just now, he must have made various preparations.

Faced with Yang Senping's reminder, he didn't have much reaction, and he directly assured: "Don't worry, Dean Yang, as long as all the resources are in place, we will definitely be able to develop a real artificial sun."

Yang Senping naturally had great trust in Li Chengzhe's ability.

Otherwise, the artificial sun located on Science Island would not have made such great progress, and it has successfully broken the world record so far.

And even after the meeting ended, Yang Senping was still not idle.

First, I organized today's meeting into a report and submitted it to the above, and then I went to a special meeting.

It is enough to prove that everyone attaches great importance to this international cooperation opportunity.

that's it.

The result was just as Yang Senping guessed.

The above quickly passed the report and decided to accept the joint research application from overseas forces.

And appointed Yang Senping as the general project director.

Academician Li Chengzhe is the main person in charge.

It is required to strive to overcome controllable nuclear fusion within five years or to make a breakthrough.

It is equivalent to a new five-year plan on energy issues.

The main thing is that no matter how you look at it, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. As long as the controllable nuclear fusion technology can be overcome, then human beings will focus on the galaxy.

There is no way to stare at the earth and stars.

After all, in the solar system alone, there are many planets with resources waiting for humans to mine.

If they have reached the first level of civilization and still engage in infighting, then it can only be said that the structure is too small, and it is destined to be difficult to achieve big things.

Also.

It is worth mentioning that the Chinese Academy of Sciences did not choose to keep this international joint research project confidential.

After the details are almost formally determined, they will be officially announced.

no doubt.

When the news spread on the Internet, the resulting popularity and topic views directly exploded to the top.

It even easily surpassed the heat of the virtual helmet.

There is a grand scene of the Chinese New Year on the Internet.

Controllable nuclear fusion technology has always been known as the ultimate problem for mankind. It represents whether mankind can officially enter a first-level civilization and take a new step.

As long as humans master controllable nuclear fusion, the energy system will undergo a complete change.

Fossil energy will be eliminated, and the earth and planet will no longer be polluted.

Since a long time ago, countries have been conducting research on controllable nuclear fusion. Although there has been no breakthrough, every time there is news, it will arouse everyone's excitement.

For example, the artificial sun on Science Island achieved [-] million degrees and [-] seconds before. When the news came out, it can be said that it shocked the whole country.

Everyone was immersed in that joy and pride.

Even if everyone knows in their hearts that it is basically impossible to achieve controllable nuclear fusion.

But this does not affect the longing for it.

But today is different.

I used to say that poverty limits my imagination, because of the limitations of the times, everyone thinks that controllable nuclear fusion is very far away.

It doesn't even have anything to do with my own generation.

But with the emergence of future technology, things that only appear in sci-fi movies such as quantum computer holographic screens have become a reality, and even cancer, known as the nemesis of human beings, has been cured.

Coupled with the recent space elevator and virtual helmet that almost subverted everyone's cognition, after experiencing these unimaginable things, everyone suddenly felt that controllable nuclear fusion did not seem to be a problem.

It is entirely possible to develop it.

What's more, this time is different from the previous ones fighting alone, but the most powerful superpowers in the world are working together to conduct research on controllable nuclear fusion.

No matter how you look at it, it is a must-win situation.

This made everyone full of confidence in this, and began to fantasize about the changes after humans mastered nuclear fusion.

Many professionals and professors in related fields also came to express their views.

In summary, it is basically optimistic.

It is believed that it is possible to overcome controllable nuclear fusion technology within five years.

After all, in addition to joint research by multiple parties, this time there is also ilmenite that contains helium-3 elements mined from the moon.

It is equivalent to adding wings to a tiger, so there is no reason not to fly.

This makes it possible to see excited and supportive remarks everywhere under the content of the five-year plan for controlled nuclear fusion.

"Are we finally going to challenge the ultimate problem of mankind?"

"Five years, I really don't know if it will succeed."

"Controllable nuclear fusion may still seem like a natural moat to us now, but I believe that after human civilization officially becomes a first-level civilization, you will find that it is nothing when you look back."

"Controllable nuclear fusion technology will eventually be under our control."

"This time, it seems that the determination of the whole world is very great. It is actually the first time that a strong alliance has been made. I believe there will be no problem."

"I've even experienced virtual games in my life. Isn't it normal to see controllable nuclear fusion again?"

"Let us look forward to the unprecedented grand occasion five years from now!"

"Thanks to the space elevator, otherwise, it would be unrealistic to want to mine the moon resources so easily."

"Without future technology participating in the research project, I still feel unstable!"

……

Perhaps it is because Future Technology has created too many miracles. While everyone supports the Chinese Academy of Sciences, some people express regret that Future Technology failed to participate in the project.

In their view, the success rate will be higher with future technology.

But regrets are regrets.

But everyone also knows that virtual helmets are rapidly occupying the global market, and the daily limit of online users in the virtual world is rising. Future Technology will not let go of the virtual helmet business to focus on other projects.

Fortunately, this time, the Chinese Academy of Sciences did not conduct its own research.

With the help of global resources and technology, even if there is no future technology, I believe that great progress can be ushered in.

After all, although most people support future technology, they don't think that the strength of a company can compare with the joint efforts of the world's major superpowers.

It's a pity that the outside world doesn't know that Xu Lei didn't participate in this project because he devoted all his energy to the Science and Technology Museum.

After these few days of increasing influence, his influence has successfully reached tens of millions.

Ability to unlock new stands.

Under such circumstances, he must confirm the status of the exhibits unlocked this time as soon as possible, and he will not be in the mood to participate in this project.

Tuesday, October 2028, 1.

Laba Festival.

Binjiang City.

Longhu Hi-Tech Park.

In the room of the headquarters building, Xu Lei walked out of the virtual cabin, with a look of excitement on his face: "More than four hours have passed, and the influence should reach tens of millions according to the normal situation."

In the morning, he couldn't wait to enter the hall of the Science and Technology Museum, but the result disappointed him a bit.

The influence distance is still a little bit worse.

Since there is no time passing in the Tech Museum, he certainly can't just sit in the lobby and wait for the last influence to build up.

So I had no choice but to consciously return to the real world, lie down in the virtual cabin in the room, and play in the brilliant virtual game for several hours.

Now's the right time to head out and unlock the new exhibit.

After muttering something softly in his mouth, Xu Lei no longer hesitated, and immediately lay on the bed and closed his eyes tightly to control his consciousness and came to the Science and Technology Museum again.

And just as he calculated, as soon as he stepped into the hall, he noticed the new booth with a flashing light curtain.

Faced with this situation, Xu Lei didn't bother to go to the virtual reality technology booth to check the specific influence value, so he went straight to the new booth, and skillfully stretched out his hand to stick it on the information screen next to him before and after arriving.

"I shouldn't be disappointed this time. I don't know what exhibits will be unlocked?"

"And the space above the museum."

"It's time to open up after accumulating so much influence."

When the exhibits on the booth began to emerge, Xu Lei also muttered to himself, it can be said that the space above the museum is never forgotten.

Want to know what kind of special existence it is.
Is it the same layout as the lobby?

According to his previous analysis, it is very likely that the owner of the pavilion can unlock the upper space only after the total number of influence reaches a certain value. If he still cannot find the way up this time, it means that the value of influence is not enough. Enough.

But Xu Lei didn't want to see this situation.

He is still more inclined to his own judgment, because he always feels that unlocking new exhibits this time will probably bring about brand new changes in the upper space of the museum.

Just when Xu Lei's thinking came to this point, he saw a special device on the booth with a distorted shape that looked like a twist appeared in the field of vision.
