The celebration was not over yet.
The opening performance had only just passed two performances, but on the internationally renowned academic exchange community LSPM forum, the screen had already been flooded with hot posts.
Whether it was scholars engaged in research in related fields or people who came to watch the fun, they all joined in the discussion of related topics.
[Academician Lu is amazing!]
[F * ck, is this a joke? Second-generation controllable fusion?! Didn't they say that it is still 50 years away from ignition and 100 years away from locking the fire in a cage?]
[Why do I feel like this is an April Fool's joke?]
[Joke? Then how do you explain the aurora over the Yangtze River Delta city group! Did everyone have the same hallucination that day?!]
[Maybe it is some kind of special celestial activity? Or … holographic projection?]
[What the f * ck is holographic projection! What kind of holographic projection can fill the sky of a city group?!]
Holographic projection technology that could fill the sky of a city group obviously did not exist. Or in other words, if this technology really existed, it might be more surprising than the second-generation controllable fusion technology.
Not only was the Internet discussing the reason for the appearance of the aurora, but the front desk phone of the East Asia Power Group had also been ringing off the hook.
Just when everyone was eager to know if all this was related to the research of second-generation controllable fusion technology, a low-key announcement was suddenly published on the official website of East Asia Power.
The length of the announcement was very short, even less than twenty words, but the amount of information was extremely large!
[The second-generation controllable fusion reactor was successfully ignited, and the long-distance laser power transmission device was successfully tested!]
After seeing this announcement, people finally understood what the aurora that appeared over the Yangtze River Delta city group was. And the discussions on the LSPM forum about whether the aurora was related to the second-generation controllable fusion technology had almost all turned into surprise and amazement.
No one thought that everything would come so suddenly.
So suddenly that they were not even ready to think about what new changes would be brought to this already bustling world after mastering the second-generation controllable fusion technology.
Many people didn't even expect that East Asia Power could really make this second-generation controllable fusion technology under the leadership of Academician Lu.
After all, there had been almost no major breakthroughs in the research of second-generation controllable fusion technology in the past half a century. The academic community, which had been stuck in a bottleneck for too long, had even begun to re-examine whether helium-3 was suitable as the fuel for second-generation controllable fusion technology.
Coupled with the decline of East Asia Power, it had already begun in the latter half of the last century.
The bloated management system coupled with the rigidity of the management made the entire R&D department a retirement home based on seniority. There were not even two patents in half a year, but the output of theses remained high.
Even if Lu Zhou crawled out of his coffin, he would not be able to save this weak giant.
What's more, he, who had just become the chairman, had given the giant a dose of strong medicine.
Not only did he personally serve as a member of the Scientific Development Committee of the Board of Directors, but he also quickly cut off the largest and most critical research and development department of East Asia Power – the Electromagnet Design Research Institute. He also made a major change in the senior management of East Asia Power's R&D department.
At that time, the outside world generally held a pessimistic attitude towards Lu Zhou's radical approach, thinking that East Asia Power, a patient that was already on the verge of collapse, might be completely destroyed by this dose of strong medicine.
However, now it seemed that the opposite was true.
Not only did East Asia Power not decline from then on, but it was reborn in the light of second-generation controllable fusion technology …
Now, almost no one would doubt all the decisions made by Academician Lu at the beginning.
If that wasn't great foresight, what else could be worthy of such a compliment?
Jin Ling City First Prison.
Liu Sihai, sitting in the cafeteria, watched the news blankly.
After learning about the breakthrough of second-generation controllable fusion technology, his pale face became even paler.
Although he did not see the aurora in the sky last night because of the poor lighting from the bars, the prison still organized a ignition day event, allowing them to watch the celebration live until nine o 'clock in the evening.
It was precisely because of this that he also watched the opening speech of Academician Lu last night.
At that time, he was thinking about what the big gift Lu Zhou mentioned was. He didn't expect to see the mystery revealed in the news early in the morning.
Moreover, it was the result he didn't want to see the most …
"I didn't expect him to really do it …"
He muttered to himself, looking at the news as if he had lost his soul.
To be honest, at this point, he basically had no hope of clearing his name.
The witness and material evidence were all available, plus the case involved the ALPHA virus and KB activities. Even if he was just a minion, it was absolutely impossible for him to be given a light sentence.
At this moment, there was only one obsession in his heart, which was to see the man who took everything away from him stand in front of the news interview camera with a frustrated face and admit the failure of East Asia Power in the second-generation controllable fusion project.
Only in this way could the hatred in his heart be eased a little.
In fact, he still remembered that at the beginning of the year, when he saw the citizens of Guanghan City launch an unprecedented protest to resist East Asia Power's experimental reactor plan on the Moon, he once thought that his dream would soon come true.
Even Lu Zhou couldn't bear such a large amount of political pressure and stubbornly carry out his experimental reactor plan to the end.
However, the facts in front of him were completely opposite.
Without him, East Asia Power not only completed the ignition of the second-generation controllable fusion, but it was also like a new life, getting better and better than before …
…
"I have to give up."
Sitting in his home, Wu Qing, the former scientific research director of East Asia Power, sighed with some melancholy as he watched the news.
Although he was dismissed by East Asia Power, he had always stood in the position of an outsider, paying attention to the research progress of the second-generation controllable fusion technology.
Unlike those who were pessimistic about the second-generation controllable fusion technology, he was actually optimistic that East Asia Power could eventually solve the bottleneck of the second-generation controllable fusion technology.
Especially after seeing the courage and determination shown by that man in reforming East Asia Power, even if he did kick him out of the position of scientific research director, he didn't particularly hate him.
After all, his fate was better than Liu Sihai, who went to prison to "drink coffee" …
"Unbelievable." Zhao Qian reluctantly put away the newspaper unfolded on the holographic interface. His face was full of a complicated expression as he said, "How can an old antique from a hundred years ago make such a big breakthrough in such a cutting-edge research field!"
As one of the managing directors of East Asia Power, he should be happy for the rise of East Asia Power.
But when he thought that Lu Zhou, who completed this project, would stand at the apex of the East Asia Power's chairmen, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
Without a doubt, the position of chairman was getting farther and farther away from him …
Wu Qing glanced at Zhao Qian, who had a complicated expression on his face, and sighed softly.
Although there was some age gap between the two, they had known each other for a long time, and they could be regarded as old friends. And he had long heard of his friend's ambitions.
"Don't do anything stupid."
"I know, it's just …"
Wu Qing saw through his thoughts at a glance, and he spoke slowly.
"You don't want to give up, right?"
Zhao Qian nodded with a complicated expression.
Wu Qing was silent for a while before he spoke slowly.
"To be honest, for this great god, East Asia Energy may not be very interested in this small temple. In my opinion, if we didn't do too much at the beginning, he may not suddenly become the chairman. If you are smart, what you should do at this time is definitely not to sing a different tune from him. It will be better to perform well in front of him. "
"Perform well in front of him …"
"Yes." Looking at his old friend with a complicated expression, Wu Qing nodded and said, "According to historical experience, the second-generation controllable fusion technology has been completed. He may not stay in the position of chairman forever."
"Of course, this is just my personal opinion. You can pretend you didn't hear it."
After that, the old man surnamed Wu no longer expressed any views on this matter. He ignored his old friend who came to visit early in the morning and continued to watch the news on the holographic screen.
Zhao Qian, who was sitting on the sofa, fell into silence. On the surface, he seemed indifferent, but his heart had already set off a storm because of Wu Qing's previous words.
The small temple of East Asia Power …
Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared on his face.
If even the East Asia Power, which could affect the entire Pan-Asian region and even the world economic stability, was considered a small temple, then he really couldn't imagine what kind of existence was worthy of that person …
