Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

Chen Xiao frowned after receiving the emergency notice.

He is aware of the severe weather in the northwest region. When building the energy block factory, the weather is also taken into consideration, so the output of the energy block factory is relatively low for two or three months every year, which is also in Chen Xiao's calculation. .

But I didn't expect that it was all spring, and the sandstorm and bad weather continued without subsiding.

Chen Xiao called Gao Miao and asked him to come to his office.

"Gao Miao, I just received an emergency notice that the weather conditions in the northwest region are very bad. We need to contact the local energy plant immediately to check the situation."

When Gao Miao heard Chen Ling's words, his expression became serious. "Okay, I'll contact the person in charge of the energy factory in the Northwest Region."

Gao Miao immediately called Li Tao, the person in charge of the Northwest Energy Plant of Galaxy Energy Company, to verify the situation.

Li Tao sighed in a low voice and reported, "The weather conditions in the northwest region are much more serious than before, which has indeed had a great impact on our energy factories. The production of energy blocks has decreased a lot, and the supply is difficult to guarantee."

"How long do you expect this weather condition to last?" Gao Miao asked.

"It's hard to be sure. In previous years, the spring sandstorm lasted for at most half a month, but now we can't see the end. We can only continue to deal with the current situation. But I will continue to keep in touch with the local meteorological department." Li Tao replied.

"Okay, if there is any new situation, you must report it to me in time." Gao Miao put down the phone.

Gao Miao knew that this kind of weather would have a great impact on the energy company, and measures must be taken as soon as possible. She immediately transferred the data of the national production of energy blocks.

According to the current production and inventory, it is enough to cope with the severe weather in the northwest region, but if the weather in the northwest region continues to be severe, it will be difficult to handle later.

Gao Miao took the initiative to apply and said: "I want to go to the northwest region to understand the specific situation and see what measures can be taken."

After thinking for a while, Chen Xiao agreed: "Remember to pay attention to safety, this is also a good scientific research topic, let's see how our bacterial colony survives under severe weather conditions.

"

"Don't worry, I will be careful." Gao Miao gave Chen Xiao an affirmative answer, and then began to pack her luggage.

However, she got a surprising piece of news that all flights in Gansulan City were canceled due to yellow sand covering the sky.

Gao Miao had no choice but to fly to Chang'an Airport, which is the closest to the northwest region, with his team, and then drove to the northwest.

The journey was far away, and the sights along the way shocked her even more.

When I first arrived in Chang'an, the sand and dust weather was not very serious, but the situation became more and more serious as I approached the northwest.

The air is filled with more and more sand and dust, and visibility is getting lower and lower.

When she arrived in Lan City, Gansu Province, what she saw was this scene:

The entire city was surrounded by yellow dust, and vision was severely restricted. High-rise buildings, streets and roads are covered with orange-yellow dust, which feels like a lake.

The sun was completely blocked, and the air was filled with a strong smell of sand and dust.

There are few pedestrians on the road, and even if there are, they are wearing masks and wrapping thick scarves.

Visibility is extremely low, only tens of meters, and it is difficult for cars and pedestrians to see the road ahead clearly. Driving and walking have become dangerous, and drivers have to drive slowly and carefully.

Although the air filter was installed in the car, as time went by, the dust diffused outside gradually invaded the car, causing the air quality to decline significantly.

After driving for two consecutive days, Gao Miao already felt a sense of suffocation when the car arrived at the factory.

She looked up, only to see flying sand and rocks, and her vision was a bit like a lake. Faced with such bad weather, the person in charge of the factory immediately took Gao Miao into a closed conference room.

The person in charge of the factory reported the current situation to her.

"Due to the recent dusty weather, our colony pool had to stop production, and a number of colonies were dying due to lack of sunlight."

All the colony pools went on strike, which meant that there was a serious problem in the factory, which affected the normal operation of the production line.

The production of energy blocks in the northwest region accounts for 60% of the total output of Galaxy Energy Company, and the continuous suspension of production here has a great impact on the production of energy blocks.

The energy blocks are currently used in bio-new energy vehicles, mobile phones, and laptops, and they are also supplied to bio-power stations for power generation.

Stopping here will affect the energy layout of the entire group company.

Gao Miao wanted to see the situation of the factory, and the person in charge handed her protective clothing and goggles: "Mr. Gao, please take this with you, and pay attention to everything."

Against the howling and suffocating weather outside, Gao Miao and Li Tao, the person in charge, walked into the workshop.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of sand, and the transparent roof of the factory building was even more filled with sand. Any more would crush the factory building.

Working in small teams, workers use tools such as shovels, brooms and vacuum cleaners to remove as much sand and dust as possible from the work area.

Their work was intense and orderly, without any delay due to many unfavorable factors of the weather.

"The production of the factory needs to maintain the environment. In this case, we can only clean it manually," Li Tao said helplessly.

Some workers are carefully cleaning the air system filters with various tools.

Li Tao introduced: "These filters are extremely important for the normal operation of the production line. Under the current weather, they need to be replaced every once in a while."

Gao Miao looked at the sand tide, but the workers were working hard to maintain the factory, and nodded again and again.

But the situation in the factory is not optimistic. Even if the weather improves, it will take time to re-cultivate colonies and restore equipment.

And going on like this is not an option. The sudden reduction in production of energy blocks in the northwest region has already had a huge impact on the local area.

When Gao Miao and Li Tao walked back to the office, the window was covered by thick fog, and the wind and sand were howling. The sky was getting darker and the temperature was gradually dropping.

This is a sandstorm that has never happened in ten years.

Li Tao said: "This has something to do with the extreme climate in recent years, mainly due to the serious degradation of grasslands in northern Xinjiang."

Gao Miao immediately entered the virtual world to have a face-to-face meeting with Chen Xiao.

"Mr. Chen, the situation is a bit serious. A large number of bacterial colonies have died. Without sunlight, the production capacity will not recover for a while."

Chen Xiao had already planned for this, so he made a decisive decision and immediately arranged for the factories in Nanhai Province to expand production quickly in order to deal with the crisis.

The output of Nanhai Province can ensure the stability of energy block supply and effectively reduce the adverse effects caused by production stoppage.

At the same time, Chen Xiao also realized that it is risky to rely solely on a certain region to produce energy blocks.

Once an unexpected situation occurs, it is easy to cause production interruption.

In order to ensure the safety and stability of the energy block supply, Chen Xiao decided to disperse the energy block production bases.

The location will not be limited to China, and the sunny African region is also an option.

At the same time, nuclear fusion technology should also be used.

Energy Fast is a technology that stores energy.

Solar energy can be stored in the past, and nuclear energy can be stored in the future.

Compared with nuclear fission, nuclear fusion has almost no pollutants, and it is actually an artificial sun.

Considering the strategic thinking of long-term development, he decided to take controllable nuclear fusion data to Yanjing to meet with Dean Qian of Xiaguo Academy of Sciences.

Changtian Technology has nuclear physics professionals in its hands, but it is far from enough. It needs to cooperate with Xiaguo Academy of Sciences.

Yanjing, Xia Guo Academy of Sciences.

Yanjing in spring is full of vitality and has the best weather of the year.

Dean Qian met Chen Xiao in the office.

Dean Qian also paid attention to the sandstorm in the northwest region, and asked concerned: "Is the production of energy blocks seriously affected?"

Chen Xiao went straight to the point: "The output has been seriously damaged, and I'm here today to talk about it."

Chen Xiao spent nearly two hours explaining his plan to build a nuclear fusion laboratory.

When Dean Qian heard that Chen Xiao was Wang Zha, he was stunned.

Controlled nuclear fusion is a technical field that has attracted much attention and attention worldwide, and many countries have invested huge funds and manpower, but it has not yet been completely overcome.

However, Chen Xiao told him that Changtian Technology has successfully developed controllable nuclear fusion technology.

Dean Qian looked at the information sent by Chen Xiao in detail, and hurried over to Xiao Shan, the director of the Institute of Nuclear Physics.

Xiao Shan was teaching doctoral students. After hearing the news, he trotted to the office without saying hello to the students.

Because he has been engaged in nuclear physics research for decades, he is well aware of the importance and difficulty of controllable nuclear fusion technology.

He wondered in disbelief how it was possible that a single company had mastered the technology.

Controllable nuclear fusion technology is regarded as the next generation of human energy.

The energy density is much higher than traditional energy, and no harmful gas and waste will be produced.

Secondly, it does not rely on the erosion and destructive mining of the environment, and the protection effect on the environment is also very obvious. Most importantly, this energy can be continuously supplied.

At present, including the European Union, the United States and Japan are doing this research.

But no country has been able to develop sustained and controllable fusion technology.

The technical bottleneck of mankind seems to be stuck here.

After listening to Chen Xiao's introduction of Changtian Technology's controllable nuclear fusion technology, Xiao Shan read the information carefully and was shocked.

In Chen Xiao's report, the logic is completely reasonable, and the calculation data is completely feasible. The most important thing is that some materials used have never been used in previous experiments.

It is very hard for him to believe that a company like Changtian Technology can successfully overcome problems that cannot be solved by the world's top research institutions.

Xiao Shan said: "If these are fully established, the future...my God, I can't imagine it."

Chen Xiao said seriously: "At present, there are several difficulties in our nuclear fusion technology. One is how to design and manufacture fusion beam tubes that can accommodate high-temperature and high-pressure fusion reactions. Fusion beam tubes need to be able to withstand huge mechanical and thermal stresses. , and must be able to prevent the heat and energetic particles generated in the fusion reaction from damaging its structure.

The other is how to obtain enough fusion fuel. The fusion fuel currently used is mainly tritium 3, but the reserve of tritium 3 is limited, and its manufacturing process is very complicated and expensive.

The last technology is how to effectively capture and utilize the energy produced by the fusion reaction. The energy produced by the current fusion reaction is mainly released in the form of heat energy. "

"The second and third problems are easy to solve, the most important thing is the first one, so we created the most perfect stellarator and built a huge electromagnetic chamber..."

From the morning until the early morning of the next day, Chen Xiao explained and demonstrated the relevant technical principles in detail.

After listening to Xiao Shan and Dean Qian, they didn't feel sleepy at all, but were excited and excited.

They couldn't believe that Changtian Technology actually came up with an absolutely perfect solution! This means that they will grasp the important development direction of future energy.

At this time, Chen Xiao suggested, "I would like to use the Changtian Academy of Natural Sciences as a team to cooperate with graduate students of nuclear physics from the Xiaguo Academy of Sciences to jointly develop controllable nuclear fusion."

Dean Qian immediately agreed to this suggestion and decided to set up a cooperation group.

They even directly provided Chen Xiao with a list of nuclear physics experts with excellent political quality and strong technical ability, and Chen Xiao selected them.

"This is our family property!" Dean Qian said.

Chen Xiao immediately entered the personnel information into the supercomputer, and Xiaoying evaluated the personnel.

Meanwhile, internationally.

The news that this rare sandstorm has caused Galaxy Energy's main energy plant, the Northwest Energy Plant, to reduce production a lot has also spread.

A large number of media also reported on this matter.

Google, Facebook, Apple and other U.S. science and technology alliances saw this news and realized that this is an opportunity to intervene.

The American media took the lead in launching the attack, and reported a large number of insufficient mass production of energy blocks.

Under their operation, the accident was obviously caused by the weather, but it changed in the media reports.

: According to the latest news ~www.readwn.com~ the reason for the shutdown accident of Changtian Technology's new energy plant may be related to the aging of the company's equipment and improper maintenance, so that mass production is seriously insufficient after problems in sandy weather.

bbc: A production shutdown accident occurred in Changtian Technology's new energy plant, causing some employees to be injured. It is understood that the company's new energy production is unstable, and at the same time, safety issues have arisen.

In the self-media, these problems were deliberately connected in series, directly pointing to Hanhai mobile phones, Zemeng equipment, etc., which may not have bio-batteries to use in the future.

Some netizens have begun to worry about whether the battery stock of Changtian Technology New Energy's products will not be able to meet demand in the future due to insufficient production.

Netizen on Twitter: "Changtian Technology New Energy has frequent safety accidents. In the future, you may not even be able to buy energy blocks. The equipment is just a decoration. It is a pure IQ tax. Whoever buys it will be dumbfounded!

"As shown in the picture, this is a picture of the scene in the United States. Because of the lack of energy blocks, a large number of users lined up to buy energy blocks, and a large number of equipment went on strike."

"Biological batteries are in a major crisis, and the price of bio-energy blocks on the market has begun to rise! From now on, when you buy equipment, you are buying a father."

At the same time, in the domestic media, many public opinion fighters serving the United States began to forward the articles that had been set.

Even if Changtian Technology solves the problem by adjusting the production of bio-energy blocks in Nanhai Province, so that the supply of energy blocks in the market is not affected at all, it still cannot escape the attacks of netizens.

"The bioenergy block is not perfect. It is essentially the same as oil and gas, and it is more affected by the weather."

"Global energy blocks are out of stock. Buying a lithium-ion battery car and a place to charge it, buying a bio-energy battery car, really only use rice every day. Cry you!"

Seeing such news, Chen Xiao smiled.
