Technological Supremacy Chapter 565: The shock of the national team, nuclear fusion is coming soon
The general's secretary, Lu Junlin, came to Luo Jia and brought the authorities' ardent hopes for the development of the western region. However, what Lu Junlin never imagined was that the Yarlung Zangbo River project that Luo Jia casually mentioned at the press conference was actually just a project of Xingchen Technology. Plan B, their plan A is to use controlled nuclear fusion to distill seawater and irrigate the west.
Some people may say that distilled water cannot support plants. The heart of the plan.
Even if you plant a dense forest in the desert, it cannot be maintained without the support of precipitation and ecology. The grassy grass has turned into thousands of miles of yellow sand.
"He wants to turn the 400,000 square kilometers of the Tarim Basin into an inner lake!?"
"Our whole country is only 9.6 million square kilometers!"
"The largest Lake Baikal in the world is only 31,500 square kilometers!"
"Crazy, Luo Jia must be crazy!"
In an unspeakable conference room, after Secretary Lu finished his report, the group of old men were dumbfounded, as if they had heard something extremely incredible.
I have known for a long time that Xingchen Technology has the slogan that if you are not crazy, you will not survive, but you never imagined that they have gone crazy to this extent. The authorities' most optimistic expectations.
"That's right." Lu Junlin stood on the stage with a heroic figure, and gave an affirmative answer, "Luo Jia told me that this will be a great attempt of extraordinary significance. With the climate in the west and the land of millions of square kilometers, it is very difficult to rely on afforestation, but if the climate changes, it will be the most wonderful thing to let forests and grasslands grow naturally in the west.”
There seems to be some truth...
After hearing Lu Junlin's words, all the bosses couldn't help but nodded, thinking that Luo Jia was crazy and bold.
However, they didn't know that the reason why Luo Jia dared to do this was the great plant civilization as the backing. His friend Lan Yu among the stars made a mistake and mistakenly thought that Luo Jia was the legendary top professional , the leader, so I admire Luo Jia's five bodies, and the resources of Lan Yu and the plant family are Luo Jia's confidence to carry out this huge plan.
At this moment, the general was sitting in the back row. How much he wanted to stand up and vouch for Luo Jia's plan, but his life experience told him that he could not do so.
The more Luo Jia became popular, the fewer opportunities he had to meet with the general, and even the phone calls became fewer. Most of the time, the secretary Lu Junlin communicated back and forth, all to avoid suspicion.
There is a kind of friendship, which is not to show off to others, but the more critical the moment, the more it becomes true. The general and Luo Jia are like this.
"Environmental experts once warned us that if we modify the environment recklessly, it may bring unexpected results. What does Luo Jia think about this matter?" An old man asked with a frown.
Lu Junlin raised his chin with a smile, "Luo Jia said, **** the experts."
Puff~
The bigwigs at the scene couldn't hold back for a while, and laughed out loud. The way of swearing like this is indeed Luo Jia's style.
Recalling what Luo Jia said to himself, Lu Junlin said seriously: "Since 1990, due to the crazy afforestation in our country, the forest coverage rate has increased rapidly. As of 2018, the newly added forest area in our country, It is equivalent to a quarter of the Amazon rainforest! We even almost wiped out one of the eight major deserts, the Mu Us Desert with a total area of 42,200 square kilometers!"
"Netizens are very enthusiastic about planting trees in Ali's Ant Forest, but most people don't know that the Ant Forest project actually only accounts for one-thousandth of my country's plan to return farmland to forests! The national team's ongoing project strength It is so big that ordinary people can't even imagine it."
"After we have paid so much, what do those so-called experts say? On September 5, 2019, the headline on the front page of the official website of Nature Magazine questioned my country's greening achievements, claiming that excessive afforestation may lead to deep environmental disasters, For example, the depletion of groundwater circulation and so on.”
"This world is really magical. In the past, desertification was so severe that everything was safe. When we turned the desert into a forest, all kinds of worries and doubts came one after another. So Luo Jia's suggestion is, don't worry about it. What experts, the earth will not be turned upside down just because we planted a few trees, in the history of the earth, there have been times when the concentration of carbon dioxide was dozens of times higher than now, not to mention glacial periods and extreme heat periods.”
"This is not a question of whether we want to transform the earth, but that human beings have to transform the earth in order to survive, otherwise there will be another ice age, or the carbon dioxide will rise ten times, and we will be extinct by nature like dinosaurs!"
Hoo~
After listening to Lu Junlin conveying Luo Jia's opinion, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Compared with the so-called experts, Luo Jia has got to the point. Transforming the earth is not an option, but a necessity, because if you don't Transforming the earth, human beings will become extinct like dinosaurs sooner or later.
Do you think that nature must be romantic, spring blossoms and autumn fruits?
Be less naive!
Don't forget that nature also has a tyrannical and crazy side!
In this world, there are some things that you have no choice at all, such as the stars and the ocean, if human beings want to develop, they must go to space, such as genetic engineering, if life sciences want to develop, they must intervene in genetic modification.
Don't think that the world is big, and there will be many choices. How can it be!
Standing on the stage, Lu Junlin looked around this important meeting room, and saw that the eyes of the bosses gradually became firm. It seemed that Luo Jia's future must be said, which made the bosses feel a kind of urgency.
"Although we have done a lot of work in afforestation, as of 2018, the forest coverage rate in my country is only 21.66%, which is obviously not enough."
After organizing the language, Lu Junlin continued to say in a deep voice: "Canada is 44%, Sweden is 54%, Norway is 60%, and our neighbors are neon, forest covered The rate is as high as 67%, in comparison, we are still far behind.”
"In addition, Luo Jia also mentioned agricultural security. The 1.4 billion people not only need to eat enough, but also need to eat well and eat nutritiously. This requires more arable land. The pattern of hegemony struggle will not change for a day. We must not naively place our hopes on the safety of agriculture in the West, after all, people will die if they do not have enough food, Britain, France, Germany, the United States and Japan, as long as they are big powers, there is no one that is not a strong agricultural country.”
Lu Junlin said a lot more. He felt that the higher-ups had already been convinced by him. This was actually the credit of Luo Jia. He just repeated what Luo Jia had said to him in this conference room.
"So, when can Xingchen Technology start the western development plan?" an old man with gray temples asked seriously.
"Soon, after the controllable fusion technology goes on the market, all the technical reserves needed for the development of the western region will be ready." Lu Junlin replied.
…
Chengdu, a well-known and time-honored hot pot restaurant.
"From a health point of view, I don't recommend hot pot, especially the spicy hot pot with a layer of butter floating on it. The fat intake is definitely beyond the standard." An Ran patted her full belly, He continued to say: "But there is no way, I am from Sichuan, and the hot pot is so delicious, Lao Xie, it is rare for you to invite us to eat hot pot. It seems that the nuclear fusion project is progressing more smoothly than expected."
Dr. Xie Tian laughed heartily and nodded vigorously. As the famous workaholics of Xingchen Technology, Luo Jia and An Ran were taken to eat hot pot by Dr. Xie Tian as soon as they got off the bus. It was definitely an extraordinary scene. , indicating that Xie Tian's mental state is very relaxed at the moment.
"Fortunately, the mission was fulfilled." Dr. Xie Tian said with a long sigh: "It was originally expected to be at the end of November, but now it is only mid-September, and we have already completed most of the technical tests. The company is on business."
Luo Jia was overjoyed, "You really are here, the brothers in charge of the second plan, if you know this, you will be so happy! And I just discussed with the national team that I am going to start the western reconstruction project, and I also need fusion As support, you completed the work ahead of schedule, and you have pushed the progress of several major projects of the company forward by a large margin."
Hey~
Xie Tian was not good at words, and smiled and drank half a glass of cold beer. Behind the words of "fortunately fulfilling the mission", only they themselves know how much sweat the nuclear fusion project team has put in.
Why is the road of technology called climbing the technology tree?
Because different technologies are intertwined and intertwined with each other, if there is a lack of key technologies, it will cause difficulties in the delivery of large projects that the company has planned for a long time.
Take the No. 2 project as an example. In Xingchen Technology, any project with a number, needless to say, must be of great significance and unprecedented.
Project No. 1 is a space elevator built on Weigu Island, Project No. 0 is a giant synchronous orbital space station, and Project No. 2 is a starship.
Different from previous space shuttles or lunar landing vehicles, starships are real large-scale vehicles between galaxies. Although space elevators and synchronous orbit stations can easily transport earth materials into space, if you want to cross the interstellar, you will The base module is transported to Mars, and the helium III mined on the moon is transported back to Earth, all using starships
So far, there are still three unresolved problems in the No. 2 project, namely controllable fusion, ion propulsion, and three titanium alloys.
Now, controllable fusion is about to be born, and it will greatly promote the No. 2 plan. The brothers in Inner Mongolia who are holding back the big move will definitely be ecstatic because of it.
Without a fusion reactor, there is not enough energy, and the efficiency of propulsion by liquid fuel is too low. A ten-ton starship can only hold seven tons of fuel, otherwise it will not be able to return after leaving the earth~IndoMTL.com~And Although ion propulsion and tri-titanium alloy are also important, they can be temporarily replaced by existing technologies, such as electric propulsion with relatively poor efficiency. Although the speed is slower, the torque is lower, and the energy consumption is higher, it is still usable.
"Come on, have a drink!" An Ran suggested.
He raised his wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, his throat throbbing and his expression excited. Luo Jia and Dr. Xie Tian then emptied the glass.
"Don't eat, let's go to the base to have a look first." After An Ran put down her wine glass, she said impatiently: "It's not too late, find a place to stop the business car, let's take the bus, the bus is fast, ten minutes It will be there in minutes."
Luo Jia slammed his mouth, why does this sound so awkward, but it is the truth of Huaxia.
The air bus system is too awesome, and it has had a huge impact on the civilian car market. Now, for a little distance, everyone takes the bus, and driving by yourself has become a sign of slowness and backwardness.
In China, private cars are nothing special, but buses are the real king. Even the army likes to travel around in buses.
