Section 304

But whether these methods can get what they want, only God knows.

By the end of the discussion, the President returned to his office exhausted.

The secretary handed him a cup of coffee.

"Thank you." The president took the coffee and stood in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Finally, he sighed: "Such a scientist is not an American, but a loyal Chinese?"

…

Of course, not only the United States, but other major countries have responded differently to this matter.

Russia, Kremlin.

The portraits of Peter the Great and Catherine the Great are hung on the wall, and their sharp eyes seem to show the power of the country when these two Russian emperors were alive.

Under their portrait, an old man with gray hair and a thin body, but hiding another strength, was sitting at his desk, listening to the report of the director of the Intelligence Bureau.

"So, technology like controllable nuclear fusion was really born? And it was born in our southern allies?"

After listening to the report, he just asked calmly and indifferently.

"Yes, Mr. President." The Director of the Intelligence Bureau nodded: "Even their News Network has broadcast this news. I believe you also know the status of the News Network program in their country."

"Yes." In 2027, the 74-year-old president nodded slightly, but did not react for a while.

The director of the Intelligence Bureau finally couldn't help but ask: "Mr. President, do we need to take any measures? Our country's largest economic source is oil, and now..."

The president shook his head and asked, "Do you think we are going to rob it now?"

The director was silent. He didn't dare to say such words.

The president said: "Don't worry, our allies have always been the smartest people in the world. They know what to do next. We don't have to worry about not being able to sell our oil."

"Furthermore, compared to the United States developing nuclear fusion, isn't it more reassuring for us that our allies have taken the lead in developing nuclear fusion?"

The director nodded: "That's what you said."

The president waved his hand: "Okay, go back to your post."

"Yes!" The director nodded and left the office.

The office grew quiet.

However, the president knew very well that this day was probably equivalent to Truman's announcement of the atomic bomb.

will become a node in human history.

Next, human society will probably undergo a series of chain changes.

However, what can he, an ordinary president, do?

"Why can't such a scientist be a loyal Russian?"

…

Leaders of other countries also had their own reactions.

But they all lamented, why can't scientists like Xiao Yi be from their country?

Time will pass eventually.

After that, various countries first sent congratulations to China, and then those countries with better relations with China began to ask whether they could cooperate in nuclear fusion technology; and a group of countries led by the United States, such as the Five Eyes Alliance, etc. , began to demand that China share this technology, which is crucial to all mankind, with the world for free.

A new round of wrangling has begun.

But obviously, there is only one ending.

Chapter 254 General Counsel and Chief Scientist

This Spring Festival in China has become anything but peaceful.

There was a lot of celebration at home, but there was all kinds of pressure abroad.

However, from the perspective of China today, these pressures are nothing more than that.

Probably, the only problem it brings is that the staff of the Foreign Affairs Department have to work overtime during the New Year this year.

Of course, even if they work overtime, they just need to quarrel with those whimsical foreign reporters every day. They are basically insignificant things. Anyway, that's all they did before. Now they just have to quarrel with more people. Some.

As for the many researchers on the sun-making project, they naturally went home to celebrate the New Year.

As a hero of nuclear fusion, there is still time for holidays and the New Year.

Basically, he is a researcher whose hometown is in Fei City. During the Chinese New Year, he needs to go to the research institute to see the operation of the solar reactor. After all, there must be someone on site.

As the chief engineer, Xiao Yi would go over to guard it every day. With him as the chief engineer, basically the entire reactor would not have to worry.

Of course, he didn't think there was any trouble. After all, compared to facing a lot of relatives who might ask questions during the Chinese New Year, he would rather guard the sun-making pile every day and the sun-making pile. Stay together.

Have some peace and quiet.

Otherwise, since the news broadcast on New Year's Eve, let's not talk about the public opinion that has exploded. His relatives have exploded first. All kinds of questions have been asked in it, making him a first-rate person. He's a big man. If he really met her in person, it would be even more of a headache for him.

Therefore, for most things, ordinary people only need to know what they are. If they still want to know why, it is completely unnecessary.

…

In this way, time passed quietly for several days.

Although the discussion about nuclear fusion has not subsided, as the time for rework has come, people can only return to their respective jobs with such enthusiasm.

Of course, maybe after returning to his post, he can start a discussion about nuclear fusion again. After all, there are people of the same level around him at this time, and there are more related topics.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Xiao Yi came to the Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute as usual.

At this time, the Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research Institute also has another name, which is called ["Zao Ri" Controlled Nuclear Fusion Demonstration Reactor Center Research Institute and Zao Ri Reactor Controlled Nuclear Fusion Power Generation Center]. As a demonstration reactor, it represents that it is the first successfully realized controlled nuclear fusion reactor in human history, verifying the technical feasibility, and as a power generation center, it also represents that it is also a successful commercial reactor, which has achieved the purpose of commercial power generation and realized the economic value of fusion energy.

Of course, compared with the previous few days, today's institute is much more lively, because the researchers are basically back.

Walking in the corridor of the institute, when these researchers saw Xiao Yi, they all shouted respectfully: "Hello, Chief Engineer Xiao!"

"Happy New Year, Chief Engineer Xiao."

Although they would shout this when they saw Xiao Yi before, now, there is obviously more respect in their voices.

Facing such a chief designer who led them to successfully achieve nuclear fusion, their respect at this time is all from the heart.

Xiao Yi smiled and nodded at them, "Happy New Year, everyone."

In this way, with greetings along the way, he finally returned to his office.

After a while, the door of the office was knocked.

"Come in."

Then, Li Jiangan walked in with a smile.

"I heard you were here, so I came to see you. I'm relieved to have you here for the New Year. Thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Yi smiled: "It's not hard. I can't let an old man like you come here every day."

Li Jiangan smiled and said: "That's true. Now that I'm old, my body is useless."

He walked to the sofa next to him and sat down directly.

"Now that the New Year is over, what should we do next? Are there any instructions from above?"

Xiao Yi said: "Nothing for the time being. When there are instructions, Director Liu will probably have to come again."

"That's true." Li Jiangan nodded, looked at Xiao Yi, and suddenly sighed: "You should be able to become an academician this year, right?"

Xiao Yi was stunned, then shook his head and said: "I don't know."

Li Jiangan said helplessly: "It's just you."

"If others want to become academicians, they have to start preparing a few years in advance, and they all have to treat people to drinks. On the contrary, you don't worry at all."

"I guess that if you had a relationship in the past few years, you would have become an academician in the past two years."

Academicians are elected by voting. As for how to persuade others to vote for you, you can only rely on your own ability. Even if someone helps to speak for you later, you will probably have to express your opinion first.

So sometimes if you have a good relationship, you can become an academician even if you have some problems with your level.

Otherwise, there will be no fakes like Academician He.

However, considering the various benefits that come with becoming an academician, most scholars can only take this one step.

As for scholars like Xiao Yi who don't care about such things, there are too few.

Xiao Yi smiled and just said, "It doesn't matter. It's the same whether you become an academician or not."

Li Jiangan laughed and said, "That's true."

"Chief Designer Xiao, it sounds more impressive than Academician Xiao."

Xiao Yi nodded, "Of course."

Li Jiangan sighed and said, "Tsk tsk."

Of course, he also knew that whether Xiao Yi became an academician or not would not have much impact. The biggest impact would probably be the title of Academician Xiao.

As for other treatments...

He didn't think the treatment of the chief designer of controlled nuclear fusion would be worse than that of an academician.
