I pick up technology in the future world

Chapter 79 The Wolf Heals the Deer

The next morning, Chen Fan was sleeping soundly on the camp bed in the office.

Suddenly, Chen Fan was awakened by the roar of a car engine, "What's going on?"

Chen Fan glanced at the sky outside the window, it was a bit dim, Chen Fan thought about it, got up, put on his coat, and went outside the office to see what was going on.

When I saw this, I was surprised.

Good guy, what came in was nothing but a long row of green canvas trucks. A large number of elite security officers in uniform were getting off the trucks in an orderly manner. On the vehicles behind, boxes of equipment were being unloaded from the trucks. loading and unloading.

Chen Fan reacted immediately: "Old He's actions are really fast."

"With so many people, it is necessary to greatly strengthen the protection."

Chen Fan muttered, at this moment, the internal phone in the office rang immediately.

Chen Fan connected immediately.

"Xiao Chen, wake up now." He Youguang said hehe.

The corner of Chen Fan's mouth twitched: "No, I'm not awake, I'm answering the phone while sleepwalking."

He Youguang laughed: "Haha, Xiao Chen, I'm just kidding."

"I also have a special reason for calling at this hour. You can see it outside."

Chen Fan nodded and said with emotion: "I see, the battle is quite big."

"Is it big? This is just the innermost layer of protection, and the outer layer has more layers of protection. Next, our research base will be directly managed by the high-level security internal service force."

"Also, the pre-research team quota you want, I have already settled it for you last night. It was a little difficult before, but now, the list you want, all of which are urgently prepared for you. .”

"At the same time, the colleagues in the security department are urgently conducting a confidential review, and people will arrive within five days at most." He Youguang directly stated what Chen Fan was most concerned about.

"Okay, Professor He is reliable in his work." Chen Fan was the happiest when he heard this.

"Next, just wait for the good news from our side." Chen Fan said with a smile.

"Okay, then we will all be on standby." He Youguang's words were also full of enthusiasm.

……

Time passed slowly, getting closer and closer to the fusion ignition time, and the atmosphere in the base gradually became more dignified.

Although most of them don't know the specific experimental goal of re-ignition, but to be able to re-ignite on the basis of six, every step forward will be a major breakthrough.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was the eve of another ignition experiment.

At about ten o'clock in the evening, everyone basically completed the preparations for the experiment, and then the big guys came to the cafeteria to eat dinner and supper together.

Everyone was eating while watching the evening news.

As their fusion progress has broken through one after another in a short period of time, the international energy situation has also undergone sudden changes.

“According to the latest reports, the International Petroleum Organization has informed that in order to cope with the growing energy demand, it will continue to expand production capacity…”

As soon as Zheng Ming heard it, he couldn't help complaining while eating: "Well, it's really grandiose, why didn't we expand the production capacity when the gas cost was so high before? It was stimulated by us again, so we continued to expand the production capacity... "

"This is thinking that I won't make a big shot anymore, I guess it will rot in the ground in the future."

Chen Fan looked up and lowered his head to eat: "I don't know if it's rotten or not, but if the energy cooperation agreement between the headquarters of the scientific research institute and various countries is reached, the good days of relying solely on energy exports are probably gone forever. .”

"As a chemical raw material, it should not be sold at such a high price."

There are still some words, Chen Fan is bored in his heart.

Chen Fan guessed that the International Petroleum Organization probably had to make concessions in order to deal with the next asteroid crisis. This is also the tragedy of a small country. Facing such a crisis, there is no way to effectively respond. Can use the only chips to exchange for a greater chance of survival.What's even more sad is that its own chips are still depreciating.

If it is not under the threat of an asteroid hitting the earth, normally, even if the commercial fusion fusion is successful, there is still a lot of time for fusion energy to fully cover social needs and complete the conversion process of energy from traditional fuels to fusion energy.

And during that time frame, traditional fuels remained essential.

But now...

The background is different, the situation is very different...

……

It was already the second day in a blink of an eye.

Today, negotiations continue.

The people present on both sides were very happy.

Energy prices have dropped again, which is a good thing for all parties. Nuclear fusion has not yet landed, and it can be like a catfish, rejuvenating the energy ecology.

After the representatives of all parties were seated, today's cooperation terms negotiations started again.

As usual, Charles, the top nuclear fusion technology expert in the United States, spoke immediately: "I believe that only open technology can promote the healthy development of the industry."

"I strongly recommend that you open up some technologies. We do not require the most advanced parts to be released. For example, low-generation technologies are used as opening conditions. In this way, the whole world can participate in the subsequent iterative research work of fusion."

"At the same time, you can also maintain a leading position in fusion technology, and at the same time, you can also obtain funds and resources from so many of our partners."

"What's even more rare is that only in this way can the ecology of fusion research be in full bloom, which will be more conducive to the development of this industry and the most conducive to the further development of your nuclear fusion technology."

"Frankly speaking, a monopoly does have the benefits of a monopoly. At the same time, there are no competitors."

"But, again. Monopolies are killing the industry," Charles said slowly.

"Professor Charles is right, and I agree." Professor Tom, an Australian fusion expert, spoke immediately, "Minister Sun, there is a fable that is quite suitable for the current situation. The name is the story of the wolf healing the deer."

"I wonder if Minister Sun has heard of it?"

Sun Zhengyang squinted his eyes. Of course he had heard of it, but he said calmly and gently, "Professor Tom, why don't you tell me?"

Tom smiled and straightened his throat: "There used to be a group of beautiful sika deer. They migrated to other places because they were worried that they would be killed by wolves."

"The migration is completed later, but because there are no natural enemies and no competition, the deer herd will live a life of eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating."

"Later, Minister Sun, what do you think will happen?"

Sun Zhengyang followed along and asked, "What will happen?"

Tom smiled triumphantly and said: "Later, because of the lack of competition, the sika deer ate too well and lacked exercise, and each of them became weaker and weaker. They started to wobble when they walked, and then fell ill one by one, and then died of illness..."

"Oh? Really?" Sun Zhengyang chuckled.

Professor Tom nodded: "Of course, in the end, the wolves reappeared in time, and the deer had to run every day to survive, and then slowly recovered their health, and the population of the deer continued and developed."

"This is the story of the wolf healing the deer."

"Minister Sun, from this story, we can clearly see that monopoly may be able to obtain short-term benefits, but in the end, it is to kill this industry. Professor Charles, me, and other representatives are also making suggestions and contributions for the sake of the Great Xia fusion business. Everyone said it, right?"
