Lu Zhou stayed at the newly completed assembly center from morning until night. The custom server was delivered to the assembly center's computer room. Lu Zhou watched as the assembly center technicians connected the server. He then copied the backdoor program designed by Xiao Ai onto the server.
It was almost evening by the time he finished all of this work.
Lu Zhou booked a table at the most luxurious hotel nearby, the Purple Mountain Restaurant. He invited the engineers, construction related units, and assembly center employees to have a completion party. This was a reward for everyone's hard work over the past few days.
After eating and drinking, Lu Zhou drove home. He was about to go to bed when a message from Xiao Ai popped up on his phone screen.
[Master, you have mail! (́ • ́ • ́) و ́]
Lu Zhou looked at the sender's address and saw that it was from the China National Nuclear Corporation. He immediately opened the email without hesitation.
The content of the email was very short, only one sentence.
[The ferrofluid electric energy generator has been completed.]
Lu Zhou sat up from his bed and put on his slippers. He went upstairs and sat down in his study room. He opened his computer and replied.
[Encrypt the blueprints and send them to my email.]
Less than five minutes later, Academician Wang replied, "Okay". Soon after, Lu Zhou received the email.
Lu Zhou downloaded the large attachment in the email and decrypted the file. He then quickly opened the folder and looked at the blueprints sent by Academician Wang.
Generally speaking, the design of this ferrofluid electric energy generator was somewhat similar to the ferrofluid electric energy generator on the Pangu reactor. Whether it was the air inlet or the magnet, the design was similar to the ferrofluid electric energy generator on the Pangu reactor.
However, even though there were many similarities, the China National Nuclear Corporation still spent a lot of effort to improve on the original design.
Especially in the design of the ionization chamber. Because of the curved ionization chamber structure, they saved at least 20% of the engineering space. As for the cost, they sacrificed a certain amount of energy conversion efficiency. However, this sacrifice was completely acceptable for the space shuttle.
Lu Zhou looked at the blueprint from top to bottom and thought for a while before he spoke.
"Xiao Ai."
Xiao Ai: [Huh? 0.0】
Lu Zhou held the mouse and circled the drawing on the screen. He then said, "Are you confident that you can build this ferrofluid electric energy generator?"
Xiao Ai: It's not a big problem. Just leave it to me, Master! (́ • ́ • ́) و ́]
Although this sentence seemed very reliable, was there really no problem?
After hesitating for a while, Lu Zhou decided to believe in Xiao Ai's strength.
"Alright, I'll ask the supplier to send a batch of materials over tomorrow. You can try and see if you can process it first."
Xiao Ai: [I promise to complete the task! (≧ ́ *) ノ]
…
On the other hand, thousands of kilometers away in Beijing, a car slowly drove into the Navy Equipment Research Institute compound.
Under the escort of several intelligence personnel from the General Staff Department, a USB containing all of the controllable fusion miniaturization technology soon passed through the sentry post at the entrance of the research institute. It was quickly sent to the ship's power laboratory and handed over to a specialist.
Unlike the ferrofluid electric energy generator, the most important part of the controllable fusion miniaturization technology could only be obtained using the most primitive method. This was the only way to keep the secret and not leave any traces.
It was already dark outside the window.
Academician Zhang Jianrong was sitting in a secluded laboratory. He had a pair of reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, and his hair was white. He meticulously stared at the data that just rolled out of the printer, and his eyebrows furrowed from time to time.
After a long time, he gently put down the blueprint in his hand.
"This is … the fusion battery experimental reactor model?"
"Yes." The man standing next to the old academician nodded and said, "We've delivered it, please sign here."
Academician Zhang Jianrong didn't say anything. He picked up a pen and signed his name on the person in charge of the document. He then gave the document back to the man.
The man nodded and put the document in his pocket. He then turned around and walked out the door.
After the people from the General Staff Department left, the atmosphere in the laboratory became a bit more relaxed.
A researcher with glasses sitting at the experiment table couldn't help but exclaim.
"Unbelievable … Almost hundreds of nuclear physics institutes and related construction units from all over the country were mobilized for the Pangu reactor. Even with a clear technical route, it took them a full year to complete the Pangu reactor project. I didn't expect this two-meter-diameter pillar to solve the problem."
"The difficulty of any technology is to create something from scratch." A researcher with a receding hairline was sitting at a table next to them. He said, "Fusion batteries are somewhat different from real fusion reactors, whether it's in terms of power generation, energy utilization efficiency, or cost."
"In any case, with this technology, the endurance of our ships will be greatly improved."
"Yeah."
The blueprints were all in Academician Zhang Jianrong's hands. Other than sitting here and chatting, the researchers in the laboratory had nothing else to do.
According to the usual practice, after the work officially began, Mr. Zhang would assign specific tasks to them according to the situation of the project. Everyone's task and the information they had access to were different. Before that, the contents of the blueprints were also strictly confidential to them.
Academician Zhang Jianrong stared at the blueprints for a long time. It was rare that he didn't give any instructions. Instead, he suddenly stood up from his chair.
"I'm going to Jinling tomorrow."
The researcher who was chatting earlier looked at the old academician with surprise.
"Jinling?"
Zhang Jianrong nodded solemnly.
"Yeah."
"This is a brand new technical route. It's completely different from the magnetic confinement route we have been trying."
Hearing this, the researchers in the laboratory all had surprised expressions on their faces.
Completely different technical route?
Before this, all of them thought that Professor Lu was just trying to make the magnetic confinement device smaller. They didn't expect him to take a different route!
"In order to avoid mistakes, I'll talk to Professor Lu in person about these blueprints. I'll bring a few people with me. As for the rest of you, get ready and wait for my notice. "
After hearing Academician Zhang Jianrong's words, the researcher with a receding hairline sitting at the experiment table next to him spoke.
"When do we leave?"
Zhang Jianrong answered without hesitation.
"Now."
