Infinite Life: Trapped in a lifetime

At the end of March, after the new long-night reactor completed its first restraint operation experiment,

The old leader asked Mo Dao face to face for his opinion on whether the results of this experiment should be published.

"It can be announced. If we just announce this result, it will not have any impact on the research itself, and it will not expose too much information about the Changye pile."

Mo Dao glanced at the old leader and gave an answer that seemed to have no objection.

For Mo Dao, this really has nothing to do with it.

At the same time, it is actually difficult to keep Chang Ye Dui's affairs completely secret.

Changyedui took more than four years from construction to completion.

Such a big movement, no matter how slow the parties outside China are,

It is impossible not to know at all.

Maybe we don’t know the specific situation of Changyedui, or what specific experimental goals Changyedui will achieve.

But I must know that there is a large-scale experimental project in controllable nuclear fusion under construction in China.

In fact, since the construction of Changyedui began, China did not completely conceal the existence of Changyedui.

There are occasional official reports at each stage of the construction process.

But now, seeing that the construction of Changyedui has been completed, there is no movement at all, and it will only become more eye-catching.

More importantly,

The results achieved by Chang Ye Dui at this moment are not even phased results for Mo Dao. They are just a beginning.

Soon, this result will become outdated data.

Changyedui will make another move in the future, and each move leaves no trace at all, which is very rare.

After all, the entire Changyedui project involves quite a few research teams and partners.

"Okay. Let me see..."

After obtaining Mo Dao's consent, the old leader thought about it.

"It happens to be the second day of the second lunar month in a few days. On February 2, the dragon raises its head, let's announce it to the public at that time. Professor Mo, you and all the researchers and staff of Changyedui, you can also accept the recognition of people from all over the country. Thanks for your contribution.”

"Professor Mo, what do you think of this day?"

"I have no problem with that."

Mo Dao shook his head and responded.

The old leader nodded again and said, "That's it." ’

After that, the old leader looked at Mo Dao again,

"Professor Mo, technically, I am a layman. In the field of controllable nuclear fusion research, you are the real expert."

"I have a question that may be a bit presumptuous, and I want to ask Professor Mo."

Mo Dao said nothing, waiting for the old leader's questions.

"You said that after the completion of the Long Night Reactor, we are close to the final realization of controllable nuclear fusion. Are we very close to commercialization?"

"With our full investment and sufficient support from all parties, how far do you think we are from the complete realization of controllable nuclear fusion?"

A lifetime later, Mo Dao heard a similar question again at a similar time.

This issue is indeed very important to this old leader, or to China.

If it is determined that there is enough possibility to completely realize the commercial use of controllable nuclear fusion in the short term,

No matter how much resources you put into it, it's worth investing all the resources you can.

And the reason why I have never made such an investment before is,

First, there is not enough accumulation. Before finding the right research path, no matter how much money you spend, it may not make much sense.

The second is also the uncertainty of scientific research. Before controllable nuclear fusion is completely realized, no one can really be sure that it can be realized.

And at this moment,

Mo Dao led the Changyedui project and achieved breakthrough results on Changyedui.

It can be said that it gave me a shot in the arm.

It’s hard not to have more expectations for the realization of controllable nuclear fusion.

Faced with such a similar question, Mo Dao gave a completely different answer in this life than in the previous life.

Because in this life, he already has the answer to this question.

All that is needed is to show it step by step.

"It's very close."

Mo Dao looked at the old leader, thought for a moment, and then said,

"During the design and construction process of the Changye reactor, we found a path that can continuously improve the various indicators of the experimental reactor."

"Continuing on this road, we should be able to get closer to the ultimate realization of controllable nuclear fusion."

"good!"

The answer Mo Dao gave didn't seem particularly certain.

There is no clear and direct statement that commercialization of controllable nuclear fusion will be achieved within a short period of time.

For the old leader, this sentence is enough.

In the field of controllable nuclear fusion research, the meaning conveyed by this sentence is already quite weighty.

He couldn't demand that Mo Daoyao would be able to completely realize controllable nuclear fusion.

It's possible, and that's enough.

In fact, Mo Dao's words were quite powerful.

The old leader was somewhat energetic,

Hearing Mo Dao's words was even more exciting for him than seeing the historic breakthrough achieved by the Changye Reactor's first operational experiment today.

The results achieved by the first operation of the Long Night Reactor are amazing, but they have already been achieved.

And Mo Dao's words at this moment symbolize a very imaginative possibility.

"Professor Mo, thank you for your answer."

The old leader looked at Mo Dao again and made a serious promise,

"In the future, on the long night reactor project and the research on controllable nuclear fusion, we will do our best to support your research, meet all your research needs as much as possible, and solve your worries."

This sentence means that all needs after a long night of piles can be given the green light.

It also means that there will be a steady stream of huge investments in the Changye Reactor or other controllable nuclear fusion research projects that Mo Dao will be responsible for in the future.

At this time, the old leader did not ask Mo Dao for a specific time limit for the realization of controllable nuclear fusion.

When it is determined that controllable nuclear fusion has a high potential for commercialization,

It doesn't matter whether it's ten years, twenty years, or even thirty or forty years of long-term investment.

China can still afford this long-term investment.

"Thank you. We will try our best to work towards the realization of controllable nuclear fusion as soon as possible."

Mo Dao nodded and responded.

Simply speaking from Mo Dao’s personal perspective,

It doesn’t matter if controllable nuclear fusion is realized earlier or later.

It doesn't matter if it takes a few more lifetimes.

But if he wants it to come true in this life,

Let Academician Zhang and others, who did not see the realization of controllable nuclear fusion in their previous life, take a look.

In fact, there is not much time left.

"Of course, Professor Mo, you must also pay attention to your body. Your body is much more important than ours now."

The old leader looked at Mo Dao, smiled and said another word of concern.

Mo Dao nodded and thanked him.

after,

The old leader also mentioned the safety issue of Mo Dao.

As research on long-night reactors and in the field of controllable nuclear fusion continues to deepen, more breakthroughs are being made.

Mo Dao's security issues will also become more serious.

Although the research on controllable nuclear fusion is strictly within the scope of civilian technology and does not directly involve the military.

But obviously, other parties will not really treat the research on controllable nuclear fusion as ordinary civilian technology.

Mo Dao also knew this.

But to him, this obviously doesn't matter.

After the old leader mentioned it, he didn't mention it too much on this issue.

Because they will be responsible for doing this well, they will naturally take care of Mo Dao's safety issues and will not let Mo Dao worry too much or have any worries.

"Professor Mo, it's just that it's hard for you to go abroad during this period."

Mo Dao shook his head,

This also doesn't matter to Mo Dao.
