Chapter 294 Genius, You Make It Look Like I’m Lying! (6K Votes Requested, Please Follow Up)

"Gong Luo, they definitely have no good intentions when asking us to cooperate this time! Do you have any plan to deal with them?"

Luo Yao said unconcernedly: "No, I just want to know about the progress of their nuclear fusion."

"Didn't their nuclear fusion reaction set a record for the longest reaction time?"

"Aren't you curious about the specific situation?"

Shan Xing did not expect that Luo Yao would have the attitude of a scientist eager for knowledge.

Faced with such an honest Luo Yao, Shan Xing of course had to express his support.

"Speaking of which, members of the ITER Alliance are actually obliged to disclose information about projects within the agreement to us."

Luo Yao was not very happy after hearing this: "In the agreement? But others can also make excuses to say that their key information has nothing to do with the projects in the agreement."

"Don't they just want an AI medical cabin? It's not like we can't afford it. As long as their technology is valuable, I'm willing to pay for it."

All right.

Shan Xing realized that he had forgotten the fact that Luo Yao was a traitor.

In order to achieve technological development, it is really possible for him to spend money.

But this time Shan Xing had doubts about whether what Luo Yao said was true.

After all, if Luo Yao acted too normal, it would appear abnormal.

…

Hexagon, conference room.

Many senior executives were outraged by the news they had just received.

"Those idiots like John are obviously going for the opponent's AI medical cabin! How dare they abandon our position for the sake of their immediate interests!"

"What do we do now? Leave them alone?"

"No matter what? Let them take advantage of us and enjoy the benefits of cooperating with the other party? What a beautiful idea!"

"The Johns are now eager to establish a good relationship with them. They just want to gain benefits from three aspects. One is the AI ​​medical cabin, the other is nuclear fusion, and the third is most likely the space project." The person sitting in the first place He spoke meaningfully.

“Fusion and space?”

"The Chinese are about to catch up in these two fields, so John is trying to establish good relations with them."

"Baidi has not officially carried out the mission yet, but people in some countries can no longer sit still."

Everyone looked at their commander and saw a sad expression on his face.

"There is an order from above. If we cannot stay ahead in the fields of nuclear fusion and space, I will take the blame and resign to give everyone an explanation."

There was fear in everyone's eyes.

Everyone was a little panicked, because they knew that breakthroughs in nuclear fusion and space could not be achieved overnight. This requires not only strong financial support, but also long-term scientific research accumulation and technological innovation.

Although they have some excellent scientists and engineers on their team, there are many challenges to stay ahead in both fields.

For the superiors to ask the chief to make a guarantee at this time can be said to have sent a signal - they are being pushed into a hurry.

Everyone looked at each other, feeling an unprecedented sense of pressure and responsibility in their hearts.

It’s not that they feel sorry for their superior, they just feel that if the superior takes the blame and resigns, what will happen to them?

"So, now we have to win over John and get them to stand in line." The chief saw that everyone was silent and did not want to go around in circles with these people, so he said directly.

"How to win them over? Solve their medical problems? But we don't have that many doctors!"

The officer sneered and said: "What are you thinking? We are an ugly country. How can we do something that is beneficial to them? Of course I am not talking about wooing in this sense."

A few days later.

John Space Agency received news from astronaut Tim on the International Space Station.

"Everyone, the three of us have recently been sent to perform various maintenance tasks for some unknown reason. In the past, these maintenance tasks were all taken in turns, but now the three of us are responsible for them all,"

Peak, the person in charge of the contact center, frowned and said, "Are you sure the three of you are responsible for everything?"

"I'm sure that we Johns are responsible for everything. We have no way to carry out space experiments now."

Peak comforted Tim a few words and asked him to maintain the status quo, and then immediately reported it to his boss.

After the boss learned about the situation, he suspected: "Could it be that the Ugly people are targeting us?"

Pique was shocked and said, "This shouldn't happen, right? Our relationship has always been very good."

The boss felt that this matter was beyond the scope of his solution. After sending Peake away, he contacted David, the head of the space agency.

After David learned about the situation, he contacted NASA.

"Excuse me, why have our astronauts been assigned to carry out repair work recently?"

"This is a work requirement. If you don't want to, you can quit working on the space station."

David understood the meaning of the other person's words.

This is to drive them out of the space station!

Damn it! What have they done?

People had to bow their heads under the eaves. David suppressed his anger and showed an elegant gentlemanly manner and asked the NASA people: "Excuse me, did they commit something?"

"It's not so much them as it is your fault."

"Our reason?" David continued to ask the other party, obviously he didn't want to talk anymore.

David thought about it and finally found the clue.

Could it have something to do with the recent talks between the Minister of Health and the Minister of Science and Technology about cooperation with the Chinese?

To confirm this suspicion, David contacted the Minister of Science and Technology.

After exchanging information, they quickly confirmed the intentions of the Chou people.

"These ugly Chinese people are still playing zero-sum strategy! They are forcing us to side with them!"

"So what should we do now? Shouldn't we show each other a little bit?"

The Minister of Science and Technology looked at David as if he were a fool and said, "How are you sure you can show them colors?"

"In terms of technology and economy, we are currently integrated. If they really want to take action, we will be the ones who suffer."

"Then shall we compromise?"

"We must compromise now. As long as there is a breakthrough in nuclear fusion technology or the space field, we can get rid of them."

"Now, in order to avoid causing trouble, we have no choice but to cooperate with them."

A week later, Shan Xing and others, who were originally planning to meet online with the Minister of Science and Technology, suddenly received news that the number of people attending the meeting would increase.

Shan Xing became curious about increasing the number of people. If it weren't for Luo Yao, he wouldn't have agreed to this online meeting. The other party wanted to add more people, but he felt that the other party was about to show his fox tail.

At the beginning of the meeting, besides the Minister of Science and Technology and the Minister of Health, Shan Xing saw a strange and familiar foreigner on John's side.

"Mr. Shan Xing, Mr. Luo Yao, this is Noah, the chairman of the ITER project."

Luo Yao sat next to Shan Xing, raised his eyelids and glanced at Noah who was smiling, and then lowered his head without interest.

Shan Xing finally remembered who this foreigner named Noah was.

The ITER project is an international thermonuclear fusion experimental reactor project that aims to develop controllable nuclear fusion technology through cooperation. As the chairman of the project, Noah has considerable influence in the international science and technology field.

Although Luo Yao seemed indifferent to Noah's arrival, Shan Xing knew that the arrival of the chairman meant further cooperation and exchanges in the field of nuclear fusion.

Luo Yao could ignore the other party, but he couldn't, so he smiled and said: "Mr. Noah, it's nice to meet you. Welcome to our meeting."

Noah smiled and nodded, and said: "Mr. Shan Xing, I am also very happy to be here. I believe there will be many topics worth discussing between us."

Shan Xing heard something in the other party's words and thought that inviting Noah here this time would definitely not be a good thing, so he said, "Why did Mr. Noah suddenly come to the meeting?"

Noah smiled and replied: "Mr. Shan Xing, I am very interested in the work of you and your team, and I specially took the time to come and communicate with you." Although his tone was polite, Shan Xing could feel a hint of danger in it. .

Shan Xing was secretly vigilant in his heart, he knew that Noah would not appear here for no reason, there must be some purpose.

The meeting continued, and Noah actively participated in the discussion and provided some insights on nuclear fusion technology and international cooperation.

"Since we are all members of the ITER project, we should actively share our respective scientific research technologies. Only in this way can we promote the smooth development of the ITER project, right?"

Shan Xing looked at Noah with a half-smile.

Good guy, he knew Noah was not a good person.

Are you here to ask for technology from them?

But they haven't made any progress yet?

"Mr. Noah, you are right, but our current technology has not made progress. We currently only produce 30 megajoules of energy in 3 seconds, which is far lower than the record set by John JET Laboratory in 5 seconds. 69 megajoules of energy were produced."

Noah shook his head after hearing this: "I remember that your Luo Yao team announced before that they could observe plasma turbulence through experiments, right?"

"I believe that based on your research and development speed, nuclear fusion technology will definitely make progress."

Shan Xing looked helpless: "Mr. Noah, after all, this is nuclear fusion technology, not an ordinary scientific research project. At this stage, the difficulty of research and development has increased exponentially."

"President Shan, I believe this difficulty will not trouble you. Now that you are saying this, are you unwilling to bring out the technology to communicate with us?" Noah's face showed disbelief.

Shan Xing:? ? ?

What is this wise guy talking about?

You actually said he was lying? !

Do you think he is a big liar, Professor Zhang?

Shan Xing said helplessly to the person next to him: "Gong Luo, why don't you say a few words?"

Luo Yao nodded very cooperatively and said, "Well, we haven't made key progress yet."

The faces of Chinese people are similar to foreigners. Shan Xing did not introduce Luo Yao during the meeting, and Noah and others did not recognize that this young man was the Luo Yao they were looking for.

Now hearing Luo Yao say that no progress has been made, Noah smiled: "I heard that your Mr. Luo Yao has conquered the NS equation, one of the seven millennium problems. Just for this, I believe you have also obtained some key data. Since you haven't made progress in nuclear fusion technology yet, I believe you must have encountered a problem."

"In this case, why not cooperate with our members of the ITER project and let us benefit mankind together?" the Minister of Science and Technology and the Minister of Health said after looking at each other.

Their purpose this time is to get the Chinese to hand over the latest nuclear fusion technology. As for the rest, they don't care.

Huaguo's science and technology has made rapid progress in recent years, and there was news some time ago that Luo Yao's team has made progress in conquering the NS equation. They have enough reasons to believe that this group of Chinese people are hiding the latest nuclear fusion technology in their hands. technology!

If there is no cooperation between them, they will not be able to find a legitimate reason to ask the Chinese to hand over their technology this time.

But it’s different now. They are members of the ITER project, and the Chinese must abide by the agreement!

The ITER plan stipulates that all members must share the technology in the project so as to achieve the goal of sustainable development and progress.

It is precisely because of this agreement that the Chinese cannot refuse.

Relying on this, John became confident.

Luo Yao did not panic at all when facing the other party's doubts: "We are currently making progress in overcoming the NS equation. If you want to get relevant data, you have to show your sincerity."

The Minister of Health frowned: "Who are you? Why should we show sincerity? You signed the ITER agreement, which shows that you are obligated to provide relevant technologies."

"I am Luo Yao, and I took the lead in conquering the NS equation."

The three face-blind people opposite were stunned and looked at Luo Yao's face carefully, trying to find evidence to prove that he was Luo Yao!

"In addition, I am very sure that the experimental data of the NS equation will not be within the scope of the ITER agreement you signed."

Was Luo Yao doing a nuclear fusion experiment? He was obviously doing a mathematical experiment!

What does a mathematical experiment have to do with the ITER protocol?

Luo Yao would not believe that an agreement would be signed in such detail that mathematical problems could be included in advance!

Shan Xing reacted when he heard this: "It seems that this part of the agreement is indeed not mentioned in the agreement. The three gentlemen can confirm it before talking about it."

The Minister of Science and Technology thought that the duck in his hand could not let them fly away, and an idea came to his mind as soon as he rolled his eyes: "The agreement stipulates that the content related to nuclear fusion technology needs to be disclosed openly and honestly to other members. I think you are the ones who remembered it wrong. ?”

Shan Xing understood after hearing this.

The other party is starting to confuse the concept!

In order to get their technology, this group of people gave up their faces!

Shan Xing was about to refute, but Luo Yao stopped him: "President Shan, you can't defeat them."

Shan Xing is depressed. Does this mean he is stupid?

With so many people in front of him, can you save some face for him?

"It's not impossible if you want us to come up with the latest experimental data, but the premise is that you have to publish your technology first, and then I'll take a look at the situation."

The Minister of Science and Technology frowned slightly, wondering why he had tricked them in the first place?

Reluctantly, he declined: "This is not the time for bargaining. I hope you can cooperate as soon as possible..."

Luo Yao didn't want to talk nonsense to him at all, so he raised his hand and interrupted him: "In one sentence, give it or not?"

The Minister of Science and Technology's face was not very good, and before the Minister of Health had time to express his expression, Noah's brows were already frowning.

This tone, this attitude.

When did you Chinese become so powerful?

Why did you learn from the ugly people?

The Minister of Science and Technology took a deep breath and said: "We can take it out here, but not now. If you need it, you can set the time in three days, but at the same time, you need to provide your latest experimental data on the spot."

"Come to negotiate terms with us again?" Luo Yao revealed the other party's purpose without mercy.

He said to the Minister of Science and Technology who was opening his mouth to refute: "If you want to trade, we need to see if you have the strength."

"How long do you confine the plasma?"

"It takes five seconds in steady state, and there are experiments that have been carried out for seven seconds." The Minister of Science and Technology said proudly.

Well, that counts as seven seconds.

Luo Yao set this as his goal.

Isn’t it just seven seconds? What kind of man is he if he can't hold on for seven seconds?

The previous record of the Southwest Institute of Physics was three seconds. He believed that by observing plasma turbulence data, John's record of seven seconds could be broken!

When Luo Yao thought of this, he suddenly disdained John's skills.

"Then forget it, seven seconds is too short."

A flash of irritation flashed in the Minister of Science and Technology's eyes.

"If I remember correctly, yours can only support three seconds. In such a short time, are you sure you have the qualifications to say that we are short?"

Luo Yao smiled slightly, not intending to argue.

The more Luo Yao smiled, the less confident the other three became.

"Mr. Luo Yao, if you really make progress in nuclear fusion technology, please be sure to share it with the members of the ITER project. Otherwise, you will face strict punishment." Noah had no choice but to show his trump card.

"Punishment?" Luo Yao became curious.

How could such an ancient word come from the mouth of a person in the 21st century?

"Yes, you will face punishment. If you do not share the latest nuclear fusion technology with members of the ITER project, then you will be involved in intellectual property issues. In the ITER project agreement, the intellectual property rights of related technologies are shared by everyone. of!"

"President Shan, is he from John?" Luo Yao suddenly turned around and asked, surprising Shan Xing.

"They seem to be from the Chou country." Shan Xing said, trying to remember.

Luo Yao had a "no wonder it's like this" expression on his face.

Ugly people will disgust people wherever they go.

"You want our technology to be understood by us, but the question is, are you qualified? Even if I give you the data, won't you still be unable to get inspiration from it?"

"So, just leave this kind of thing to professionals."

"As for the 'punishment' you call it, that's up to you."

A rare contemptuous smile appeared on Luo Yao's face.

Now that Chinese companies account for about 95% of the global supply chain, if you want to punish them, you need to find some way.

At Luo Yao's signal, Shan Xing closed the online conference room.

Shan Xing originally planned to have a good discussion in this meeting, but his tolerance made the other party feel that they were easy to bully and wanted to threaten them, which made it difficult for Shan Xing to die.

Compared with Shan Xing's angry look, Luo Yao seemed much calmer.

He still gained something today. He asked John about the latest persistence time of nuclear fusion reaction.

Luo Yao briefly greeted Shan Xing and drove Baidi to the Southwest Institute of Physics.

When he arrived at the Institute of Physics, Dean Fang retrieved the experimental data stored in the computer.

Luo Yao looked at the dense data and knew that now was the time to use an important tool.

…

When Noah and the other three saw Luo Yao and Shan Xing voluntarily going offline without saying hello to them, a ball of fire jumped directly from the bottom of their hearts to the top of their heads.

"What's going on?" Noah asked in a low voice.

The Minister of Health was silent for a moment and said calmly: "Maybe they have some private conversations or urgent matters that need to be dealt with. We shouldn't pay too much attention to them."

The Minister of Science and Technology obviously didn't believe this: "I think they don't believe that we will punish them. Mr. Noah, are we going to kick them out of the ITER program according to the previous plan?"

Noah looked gloomy and said, "How can we use technology if you kick them out?"

"Now you can rely on the ITER project agreement to ask for the latest technological advances from them, but if there is no ITER project, you can only give them things in exchange!"

"Are you safe doing business with these cunning Chinese people?"

The Minister of Science and Technology said this actually to find out what Noah thought.

The Chinese are responsible for a portion of the scientific research funds for the ITER program every year. Unlike other countries, they do not default on funds and pay on time every time.

But the recent changes in the Ugly people have made the Minister of Science and Technology wonder whether these people really want to kick each other out and finally reap the benefits of the ITER project.

When the ugly Chinese people threatened and lured them to choose an ugly Chinese person as the chairman of the ITER project, they had expected this day.

But now it seems that Noah will not show his claws easily.

"Mr. Noah, what should we do now? Should we beat them?"

Noah recalled Luo Yao's taunt and said sadly: "Of course, otherwise they will be too complacent."

A month later, Lawrence of the U.S. Ministry of Commerce received the news and began to follow the list and search for supply chains throughout Blue Star that could replace Chinese companies.

“The report currently finds that Mexico’s productivity is gradually becoming stronger, and their manufacturing industries are all in labor-intensive industries, including automobile products, agricultural products, petroleum products, mineral products, toys, footwear products and other daily products, which For us, it’s a God-given opportunity!”

"As long as we cooperate with them, we will definitely get rid of cooperation with Chinese companies."

After reading the information in detail, Lawrence smiled proudly.

"So, no one is irreplaceable, no one! Their good days are about to come to an end!"

…

Zheng Yang, Shan Xing and others were meeting in the capital to discuss the division of scientific research project funds. Shan Xing suggested increasing the scientific research funds of the nuclear fusion project team.

"President Shan, are you too partial to Gong Luo? Although it is true that he joined the nuclear fusion project team, things like increasing funds must be done slowly, especially since nuclear fusion is a gold-swallowing beast that requires a lot of investment and output. For projects with fewer projects, you should be more cautious!" a financial expert warned.

"I heard some time ago that they have made some progress. Now is a good time to increase funding. If the funding is less, it will dampen their enthusiasm!" Shan Xing was scared when he saw financial experts before, but now he With his persistence.

"Let's do this. Now call Dean Fang of the Southwest Institute of Physics and ask them about their progress." Lao Zhou glanced at the financial experts and decided to make a call to hear the actual situation.

Shan Xing nodded and immediately dialed Dean Fang's number. The moment he answered the call, he turned on the speakerphone.

"Dean Fang, how is the current progress of your project there?"

"Currently...we have conducted the fifth reaction experiment."

"Oh? How long did this reaction last? Seven seconds?" Shan Xing thought of the data from John's JET laboratory.

"Not seven seconds."

Shan Xing was a little disappointed, but he still comforted the other party and said: "It doesn't matter if it's not seven seconds, it should be more than three seconds, right?"

"It's definitely more than three seconds."

When people in the conference room heard this, Dean Fang seemed to take a breath: "This time... it's sixty-two minutes."

Shan Xing's breath tightened: "How much? Sixty-two...minutes?! Not seconds?"

"This is the fifth time we've checked the numbers, and it's definitely sixty-two minutes."

boom!

Shan Xing's back leaned against the back of the chair as if losing support.

Needless to say, the success of this experiment has nothing to do with Luo Yao!

Genius, you make it look like I was lying to the ITER people before!

p.s. It will be back to normal tomorrow~
