Section 275

Of course, that's what they thought, but in the end they sent it according to the original budget. After all, it had to be kept secret and couldn't be too high-profile.

As for the final budget required, that will be discussed at that time.

Soon after the application was sent out, Director Liu personally came to the Plasma Institute on the second day and met Li Jiangan and Zhao Zhanyou, and Xiao Yi was naturally not absent.

"Professor Xiao is here."

It was still in the safer small room from last time.

As soon as Xiao Yi walked in, he saw Director Liu who was already sitting inside and waved to him.

"Sorry, I'm late. I just rushed here from school."

Xiao Yi stepped forward and shook hands with Director Liu and said.

Director Liu said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, but having said that, you have started classes now."

Xiao Yi nodded.

Director Liu smiled again and said: "Okay, then I hope that you can cultivate more talents like you for our country."

Xiao Yi twitched the corner of his mouth, and then said: "I... will try my best."

Could he still send a message to others?

After the greetings were over, several people sat back on their seats. Director Liu looked at Xiao Yi again and asked, "So, the key research you mentioned at the beginning is now completed?"

Director Liu remembers this matter very clearly.

In March this year, before the start of the NS Equation Proof Report held in Feishi City, Director Liu met Xiao Yi in the backstage of the conference hall.

When he asked Xiao Yi about his thoughts on achieving nuclear fusion, Xiao Yi replied that he needed to complete a key research before he would have a chance.

Xiao Yi nodded: "It's done."

Director Liu asked: "Can I know what those key studies are now?"

"Of course you can."

Xiao Yi once again handed the relevant information about MHT-7 to Director Liu.

Director Liu took it and took a look, and quickly focused on its resistance to radiation damage.

Although he is not a professional scientist, he still knows a lot about these things.

It's just that he doesn't know the specific value.

In the column of radiation damage resistance, there is quite a lot of data involved.

The atomic displacement threshold is greater than 69eV, the critical irradiation dose is greater than 100dpa, the critical He pinning concentration is greater than 5000appm, and the swelling rate is less than 5%...

A total of seven types of data, in addition to the four mentioned above, also include changes in thermal conductivity, changes in mechanical properties, and chemical stability.

He could probably understand the last three, but he was a little confused about the first four.

However, he did not ask, but directly asked another question: "So, how good is this material's resistance to radiation damage?"

Before Xiao Yi could explain, Zhao Zhanyou next to him said excitedly: "Of course it can be regarded as the top level!"

"Just look at this dpa value. Hahaha. dpa means that under given irradiation conditions, each atom in the material has experienced an average displacement. If it is greater than 100dpa, it means that the atoms in the material are accumulating. After removing the displacement caused by 100 times of irradiation, its performance will still not change much.”

"This means that this material can last for more than ten years in nuclear fusion. This directly means the life of the nuclear fusion facility! How long can it be used for one ignition!"

Director Liu more or less understood what Zhao Zhanyou said.

He knew very well that the main problem with previous nuclear fusion technology was the lifespan of the first wall material. If those ordinary materials could last for one year, it would be considered good. As for ten years?

That's really a bit science fiction.

But now, such science fiction materials have appeared.

However, Director Liu quickly asked: "How many people know the synthesis method of this material now?"

Xiao Yi smiled slightly and said, "I am the only one."

Director Liu nodded reassuringly, "That's good, that's good."

The fewer people who know, the better. The more people know, the more dangerous it will be.

Then he looked at Xiao Yi a few more times. Should he arrange more protection for Xiao Yi?

If Xiao Yi is the only one who knows, it will be bad if something happens to him.

As for asking about the synthesis method of the MHT-7 material, Director Liu did not do it. Now that nuclear fusion has not been created, it is better not to do anything that may cause leakage.

After coming back to his senses, now that these few things have been determined, he smiled and asked the last question: "So, now that we are close to achieving controllable nuclear fusion, are you 20% sure?"

Xiao Yi told him at the beginning that once this key research is completed, there is a 20% certainty that controllable nuclear fusion can be completed.

Xiao Yi smiled and nodded: "Well, the account has arrived."

In fact, probably because of the confidence that MHT-7 gave him, he dared to say that he was 30% or even 40% sure.

Director Liu laughed loudly, then stood up and said, "Okay, then I'll leave the rest of the research to you."

"I'm going back to Beijing now to report this matter. The old leader also gave instructions before I came here. Just wait for the news."

"Of course, you must remember to keep it secret. Although there is no guarantee that it will be kept secret forever, this news can be kept as long as it lasts. It would be best if it is not revealed until the day when we officially achieve nuclear fusion."

Director Liu emphasized the last sentence.

"must!"

Xiao Yi, Li Jiangan and Zhao Zhanyou also stood up and responded solemnly.

"Finally, come and give this plan a name, a name for the plan on the surface and a name for the plan secretly."

Before leaving, Director Liu asked again.

Zhao Zhanyou said: "The name on the surface is just EAST-S."

"Eastern Hyperloop-Super!"

Li Jiangan rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Can you give me a better name?"

Zhao Zhanyou spread his hands and said, "Then what name did you mention?"

"Well……"

Li Jiangan doesn't know anymore.

The naming difficulty occurred again.

"It's a pity that we can't find the person who originally named the Oriental Super Ring."

After all, it needs to be kept secret.

But I have to say that the name EAST is indeed very good. The four letters are separated into four letters: Experimental, Advanced, Superconducting, and Tokamak.

Xiao Yi, who was next to him, twitched his lips, looked at his watch, and then said, "Okay, I'll just give you a name, Zaori, as the name of the secret plan."

"Artificial sun, aren't we just making it?"

"Okay, it's up to you whether you choose or not. I'll go back to school first. Today is my first time teaching students, so I can't be late."

After that, he said goodbye and left here.

The three people who were still struggling with their names were stunned when they heard Xiao Yi's suggestion.

Ignoring Xiao Yi's departure, they thought about it carefully and really thought the name was good.

"It's really good."

Li Jiangan nodded, "It feels like our Chinese mythology."

Kuafu chased the sun, Houyi shot it, and now, what they want to do is to create the sun!

Is this a myth?

Of course it is!

What they did next would have been a true myth in ancient times!

But it is a myth created by mortals!

"Okay, the name of the secret plan has been decided!" Director Liu directly finalized: "Now, let's continue to think about the name on the surface."

As a result, the three people fell into difficulty in naming again.

…

On the other side, Xiao Yi didn't think about the name issue anymore.

Names are important, but not important either.

It is important to people, but to him, the person responsible for "making the sun", this name is not important.

I hurried to school and looked at the time. There were only 10 minutes left before class. I definitely didn't have time to go to the office to get books or something.

Fortunately, he remembered clearly what was to be taught in the first period.

Wang Li drove the car and finally parked directly under the teaching building.

The classroom is on the first floor, and it is a large staircase classroom that can accommodate more than 300 people. Most of the time it is used for lectures. However, because Xiao Yi's influence is too great, people who want to listen to his class There were too many, so the classroom was arranged here.

There are only 30 students in Hua Luogeng's class, and the remaining seats are reserved for other people who come to attend the class.

However, although Xiao Yi was mentally prepared, when he arrived outside the classroom, he was already stunned by the scene.
