Infinite Life: Trapped in a lifetime

There is no need for Academician Zhang to bear such great responsibility for Mo Dao's idea.

He is over seventy years old. Even if the EAST project is under his control and cannot make greater breakthroughs, it will not erase his past contributions in this field.

He can still be filled with honors and retire as a highly respected scientific research leader.

On the contrary, it supported Mo Dao's more radical and risky idea, which required him to take huge risks.

But even at the risk of losing his job, Academician Zhang still chose to support Mo Dao and put his lifelong scientific research reputation to vouch for Mo Dao.

This is mainly based on two reasons.

First, as a pure researcher engaged in controllable nuclear fusion, he is eager to achieve technological breakthroughs in this field.

This has been the pursuit of generations of scholars. As long as there is a chance, what does it matter if it means sacrificing his reputation.

Secondly, and the key is the trust in Mo Dao.

If it were simply a researcher's desire for scientific research progress, he would still hesitate.

It's not because of himself, but because he is afraid of wasting the country's funds.

Not just the previous overall adjustment plan,

But every time before the experiment was adjusted, the suggestions given by Mo Dao were basically valuable, and they were often verified to be correct in the end.

Trust does not come without reason.

It is based on the achievements that Mo Dao has accumulated time and time again.

Mo Dao's amazing creativity and thinking ability in the field of scientific research can impress other researchers working on the same project.

Although Mo Dao has explained that this is an adventure,

But Academician Zhang is still willing to believe that by building a new experimental device or experimental reactor different from the EAST project,

Mo Dao can find something.

…

final,

It was not just Academician Zhang who chose to trust Mo Dao.

Instead, most of the EAST researchers chose to trust Mo Dao, jointly vouch for it, and initiate the application.

At the same time, another unit where Mo Dao worked, the Institute of Physics at Capital University, also chose to give some support to this matter.

In the end, Mo Dao fully invested in the construction of a new experimental device and did not appear.

I don’t know if it’s out of expectations for Mo Dao, a young scientific research genius, or because of his understanding of Mo Dao’s earning power, or because of the guarantee of an academician and many researchers.

This extremely risky and radical plan actually got some money approved.

Or, it may be a combination of these reasons.

Mo Dao has never deliberately concealed his financial situation.

The above people probably know something about it. After all, some investors in this life rarely come forward directly.

But in fact, these investment income were in the hands of Mo Dao, and the huge flow of funds was quite obvious even if Mo Dao did not deliberately conceal it.

But compared to the fact that Mo Dao was able to spend so much money, it was even more shocking that Mo Dao was willing to spend so much money on a project that was likely to fail.

Unless the new experimental device can achieve controllable nuclear fusion at once, this investment is destined to have no return.

After Academician Zhang, Professor Hong and other researchers learned some of the situation,

Basically, after being in a daze for a long time, the expression is a bit complicated.

Most people dare not say that with such a huge net worth, they are willing to invest such a large sum of money in a project that has little hope and is destined to have no profit.

This is a huge investment for a huge return, and this is just to collect some more data.

This data may be valuable, or it may be worthless.

Facing Mo Dao's decision, Academician Zhang, Professor Hong and others didn't know what to say.

It was such an intuitive shock that most people were speechless for a long time.

but,

For Mo Dao, this is very simple.

He is like a prisoner trapped in a time prison,

The things that exist in this world at a fixed time are far less valuable than an unseen world.

He couldn't take anything away from this world, except some different memories.

No matter how many other reasons are derived,

Mo Dao wants to achieve the core purpose of controllable nuclear fusion,

In fact, it is similar to what I did in previous lives.

It's quite pure.

——Make it and take a look.

at last,

One by the government, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Capital University, and Mo Dao himself.

Jointly invested in, the construction project of a new controllable nuclear fusion experimental reactor was determined,

And start the design, construction and implementation.

The funds directly approved by the official account for about 30%.

The Chinese Academy of Sciences and Capital University each separately allocated 10% of the funds.

The rest is borne by Mo Dao himself.

This multi-party joint project, apart from a string of code names in the file,

There is also another name called the ‘Long Night Experimental Reactor’.

Although it is about looking for the ‘sun’,

But at this moment, they are indeed still in the long night, let's call it the long night.

…

The construction process of Changyedui is somewhat lengthy.

A considerable amount of time was spent in the design demonstration phase.

The researchers who were transferred from the EAST project had quite a lot of questions during the design demonstration of the night reactor.

These questions arise based on what the Changyedui should be built like.

The Changyedui project has been quite special from the beginning.

First of all, the core purpose of its construction is to collect data, not simply to obtain a controllable nuclear fusion experimental device with higher indicators.

This purpose is too broad.

It is impossible to build a larger EAST exactly like EAST.

So what's the point of spending so much money.

So what exactly should the Chang Ye Dui be built into?

However, this doubt did not last long.

This is a new experimental reactor designed based on Mo Dao's ideas and with Mo Dao as the core.

Mo Dao drew a direction with no clear boundaries for the researchers involved in the design of Changyedui.

That is - any design and technology that has not been used before and may have some value can be tried on Changyedu.

It is not necessary to wait until the Long Night Pile is completed before starting the experiment on the Long Night Pile.

But, in fact, the construction process of the Changye Pile was an experiment in itself.

"We really have no direction, so we can try it in all directions to see if we can find a way."

in this case,

From design to construction, the Changyedui project has gone through an iterative process.

Often a design that has been finalized is overturned in subsequent arguments and replaced with a possibly more radical solution.

This iterative process is of course quite expensive.

But it did play a big role. Some plans that were previously unthinkable were tried during the construction of Changyedui.

Some prove to be worthless, but occasionally there are some unexpected surprises.

In addition, during the design and construction process of Changyedui,

In addition to some researchers from the original EAST project, a large number of other capable researchers have also been recruited.

Some are university professors, and some are recent graduates with gifted Ph.D.s.

This is also another purpose of Mo Dao wanting to build Changyedui.

Based on an ongoing, ultra-large controllable nuclear fusion experimental reactor construction project,

Attract more like-minded researchers,

It will also cultivate more excellent researchers in the field of controllable nuclear fusion.

In the repeated advancement of design and construction,

The size of the entire Changyedui, from the theoretical design team to the subdivided research teams, is constantly expanding.

The entire construction time of Chang Ye Hei lasted for nearly seven years.
