Chapter 779: Fight Against Unscrupulous Reporters Again
In mid-July, the ordinary physics community once again received extraordinary news.
The Chinese Physical Society and the CRHPC organization jointly announced that the construction of the "Circular Super Intense Particle Collider" has been completed. A press conference will be held in three days, and arrangements for the operation of the CRHPC collider will be released.
This dazzling news was like a boulder thrown into a small pond, which caused a heated response in the entire physics community and even the world.
Not only the physics community was excited, but also the media and the Internet were watching.
The competition between CERN and CRHPC is about to begin!
Three days is not a long time, and countless media reporters from home and abroad have rushed here.
The host of this press conference is naturally Xu Chuan.
After all, as the chief engineer of the CRHPC Circular Super Intense Particle Collider project, this is his unshirkable responsibility.
The press conference for the completion of the CRHPC collider was held in the dedicated lecture hall of the headquarters building. Countless media reporters had already taken their seats in the spacious room, and a row of cameras were placed under the lecture table.
At ten o'clock, Xu Chuan, dressed in formal attire, walked out of the side door.
Below the podium, numerous flashes lit up, and a row of cameras rushed to take photos from various angles.
Standing on the podium, facing the gazes of many reporters below, he straightened the microphone, cleared his throat, and spoke in a steady and clear voice.
"I am very happy to see you all here, and I also welcome all media reporters to come from afar to report on the relevant information of the CRHPC Circular Super Particle Collider."
"After two and a half years of design and construction, standing here today, I can proudly announce that the CRHPC Circular Super Particle Collider, which is wholly funded by China, has been officially completed!"
After a slight pause, Xu Chuan's eyes swept around the whole audience, with a confident smile on his lips, and then spoke.
"Compared to the LH-LHC particle collider at CERN, CRHPC has made great improvements in length, collision energy level, and detector performance."
"First of all, in the pipeline of CRHPC, its circular pipeline is 62 kilometers long. In contrast, the length of LH-LHC is only 27 kilometers, and the length of CRHPC is more than twice that of LH-LHC."
"As we all know, the length of the collider pipeline can bring a huge improvement in the collision energy level. In this regard, the collision energy level of CRHPC is several times that of the upgraded high-brightness LH-LHC."
"In theory, the energy level of the CRHPC circular super-intense particle collider reaches an astonishing 130Tev+, and the super-limit collision can reach an energy level of 150Tev. In contrast, even the upgraded LH-LHC has a collision energy level of only 35Tev."
As Xu Chuan spoke, the large screen that had been prepared by his side also reflected the data comparison charts of the two colliders, CRHPC and LH-LHC.
Judging from the pictures in the PPT, CRHPC has crushed CERN in most aspects, including the length, depth, performance, and collision energy level of the collider.
Xu Chuan glanced at the pictures shown on the PPT, a smile appeared on his lips, and then he said:
"For high-energy physics, the increase in energy levels can make particle collisions more fragmented. The energy level of 130Tev exceeds the node of 100Tev. We can even use it to simulate the energy explosion that is infinitely close to the moment of the Big Bang, and observe more mysterious and detailed particle performances and microscopic transitions."
"This will be an epic change for the development of physics and civilization science!"
"."
At the press conference, Xu Chuan briefly introduced the situation of CRHPC to the media reporters based on the manuscript that Director Tai Xuewen had prepared long ago, and then announced:
" The launch ceremony of the CRHPC Circular Particle Collider has been scheduled, and the CRHPC organization will officially hold it at the Taohualing headquarters in Star City, China on August 1, 2024. "
"On behalf of China and the CRHPC organization, I welcome physics institutions and physicists from all countries to participate in this event."
"At that time, the CRHPC Circular Particle Collider will conduct a 130Tev+ high-energy physics collision experiment to explore the microscopic physical world at ultra-high energy levels!"
"For the physics community, this is the first time to cross the hundred-Tev energy level to explore the more mysterious world! I believe it is very likely to bring us completely different new discoveries!"
After Xu Chuan's words fell, thunderous applause rang out in the press conference hall.
The report on the completion of the CRHPC collider and the arrangements for the launch ceremony has been completed, and this press conference has been completed halfway.
The rest is naturally the questions from media reporters.
Like academic reports, this is almost a necessary link.
After all, their academic research institutions also need media reporters to expand their reputation and achievements, etc.
After Xu Chuan announced the start of the question-and-answer session, pairs of arms in the audience immediately rose up.
For CRHPC with a collision energy level of up to 130Tev, it can be said that almost everyone is quite interested.
Among the countless questions, Xu Chuan did not hesitate and gave the first opportunity to ask questions to CTV, the big brother of the domestic media.
At his gesture, the beautiful CTV reporter quickly stood up, took the microphone from the staff's hand, and asked in a clear and melodious voice:
"Hello, Academician Xu, I am a media reporter from CTV."
"I am honored to be given the first opportunity to ask questions. What I want to ask is that in your press conference just now, you mentioned that the CRHPC Ring Super Particle Collider will open the 130Tev energy level at the launch event. Collision experiment, what will be the work arrangement of CRHPC after the launch ceremony is completed?”
As the big brother of domestic media, CTV is quite calm in asking questions.
Xu Chuan smiled and replied: "We have already agreed on half of the CRHPC work arrangements, such as verifying the unified theory of strong electricity, exploring dark matter, dark energy, and particles beyond the standard model."
"These arrangements will be made public at the launch ceremony."
"And the other half."
After a slight pause, Xu Chuan looked at the media reporters in the audience and said with a smile: "China is a very tolerant and cooperative country. We welcome and are happy to meet scholars from other countries. Participate in CRHPC’s collision work.”
"As for the other half of the collision arrangement planning, we will leave this opportunity to international friends. That is, after the launch ceremony of CRHPC, the CRHPC agency will officially open its channels for external cooperation and accept other countries and even physics institutions and organizations. Or even a collider application from a single physicist.”
"Of course, to apply for the use of the CRHPC Ring Super Particle Collider, you need to submit relevant collision application documents, state the goals of the collision observation, and pass the review of the CRHPC Board of Directors."
After a pause, Xu Chuan's tone improved a lot, and then added: "CRHPC can even subsidize collision funds for countries or physicists with financial difficulties."
“Simply put, as long as you can submit a valuable collision application or idea, even as an individual, CRHPC will consider providing free collision opportunities to help you verify your theories and projects.”
As soon as these words came out, many media reporters in the audience showed surprise and surprise.
There were also whispers in the lecture hall.
In the eyes of many foreign media reporters, and even some domestic media reporters, this kind of free collision opportunity to help others verify their theories and ideas is really incredible.
After all, you must know that the Large Strong Particle Collider is a veritable gold-eating monster.
The first is construction. Take CRHPC as an example. Judging from the information disclosed by the previous CRHPC agency, it cost a total of 120 billion RMB to build this collider.
And this is a soft currency that is constantly appreciating. According to the current exchange rate, it has exceeded 25.5 billion meters of gold.
The cost of building this collider alone is beyond the reach of most countries today.
In addition, every time a large strong particle collider like CRHPC is started, it consumes a lot of money in terms of maintenance, power consumption, personnel wages, supercomputer use, etc.
This kind of subsidized funding, providing free collider funding to scholars from other countries, in the eyes of many people, is just throwing money into the collider.
And it’s millions or even tens of millions at a time.
While many people were surprised and surprised, they were also shocked by the "heroism" of China.
After a round of warm applause, the question-and-answer session continued.
Soon, some of the top domestic media had finished asking their questions, and the next step was naturally the foreign media. After all, this was a press conference for the whole world, and it was impossible not to give foreign "friends" any chance.
At this point, Xu Chuan just ordered it casually.
Soon, a media reporter who was in the front got this opportunity.
"Hello, Professor Xu, I am a media reporter from the BBC."
Under the stage, a female reporter stood up and reported her home address first. When she heard that the reporter was from the BBC, Xu Chuan frowned slightly. He was a little surprised that he clicked on this 'notorious' media. .
After all, the BBC is famous for making trouble at press conferences, and its butt is quite crooked.
But now that the point has been made, there is nothing we can do but listen to what the other party wants to ask first.
The BBC female reporter stood up, took the microphone from the staff, stared at Xu Chuan closely, and asked: "As we all know, every time the Large Strong Particle Collider is started, it will give everyone a Earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and other huge disasters have occurred all over the world.”
"The high energy level of the CRHPC Ring High Particle Collider may bring huge hidden dangers to the earth when it is started. I would like to ask if the CRHPC institution and China have considered this aspect when they are so determined to build the collider. question, and how will ordinary people feel in other countries where disasters may occur in the future?”
On the reporting table, Xu Chuan stared at the female reporter.
Sure enough, the BBC media reporter had bad intentions and directly accused China and the CRHPC organization of ignoring the global environment and the safety of ordinary people by saying that the CRHPC would cause earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and other huge disasters.
After a little thought, Xu Chuan replied: "I don't know where you got the result that the operation of the Large Intense Particle Collider will cause earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and other huge disasters."
"Of course, I know you may cite the "so-called" evidence of the LHC startup on the Internet, but there is no need to say more about this, because there is no evidence that those disasters were caused by the startup of the collider."
After a slight pause, he looked at the BBC media reporter and continued: "And if you think that the startup of the LHC brought those disasters, then you should ask CERN about this question."
" After all, these accidents all occurred when the LHC was running, and the CRHPC has not yet started any collision experiments. "
"You are a media reporter who fabricates "research accidents" without distinguishing right from wrong and is directly accusing a scientific research institution that has not yet started. I suggest that you burn your press card."
"Because you don't have the perseverance of a media reporter to pursue the truth, the spirit of objective and fair, accurate and simple reporting of news, you are not qualified to be a qualified interview reporter."
On the podium, Xu Chuan directly retorted in front of the media reporters from all over the world.
Under the stage, the female reporter of the BBC had a face that changed from blue to red and black to black. She never thought that at this press conference in front of reporters from all over the world, Xu Chuan would directly say that she was not worthy of being a reporter.
This can be said to have never happened in the academic world.
After all, such world-renowned scholars usually consider their image and face and choose to take the overall situation into consideration even if they encounter difficulties from media reporters. They either explain positively or change the topic.
Like today, it is really rare in the world, and it is unexpected.
More importantly, the other party did not say a single swear word from beginning to end, so that he could hardly find an angle to refute.
Compared with the embarrassment encountered by the BBC media reporter, other people in the venue were much more excited.
It is indeed extremely rare for such a strong scholar to dare to "fight" people directly at a press conference, and to speak on behalf of a G-party organization.
Especially this Professor Xu Chuan, who is a world-famous top scholar. This afternoon's news has a "explosive point".
I believe that this topic will definitely attract more traffic.
As for the embarrassment of the BBC reporter and the possible impact on Professor Xu's reputation after the press conference, they are completely out of their consideration.
After all, it is better to die than to die than to die. This sentence is applicable everywhere.
