Chapter 387 Visiting Yanjing Again
With this new protective layer, even if a powerful collision does occur, the nuclear fusion power device will not have any risk of explosion.

After completing the final design plan, the project team began to manufacture this new type of nuclear fusion-powered train.

This is a big challenge for everyone. Although the appearance of the train is somewhat similar to that of the high-speed rail, most of the components of the previous high-speed rail cannot be used in it and need to be re-manufactured.

For the processing of almost every part, they need to use some new technology.

However, under Ning Chen's leadership and everyone's joint efforts, they successfully broke through one technology after another and manufactured components that met the requirements.

After several months of continuous work, the project team produced the first nuclear fusion-powered train. The processing speed was amazing.

However, the train carriage is only part of the project. In addition, the track is also a very important component. Only on suitable tracks can the train travel freely.

Fortunately, Xia Guo has a very powerful train track as the basis, and when Ning Chen designed this new nuclear fusion power train, he had already considered the track problem and deliberately retained this part of the design so that the nuclear fusion train can be used directly. High-speed rail tracks.

In this way, the problem of designing complex track routes and constructing tracks is eliminated, saving a large amount of time and resources.

After preliminary testing, the operation of the entire nuclear fusion train is very good. Not only is the power very sufficient, but the operation is also very stable.

Normally, experts are unwilling to participate in such things, but leave it to some lower-level personnel to participate. After all, this is the real first trial run, and the risks are self-evident.

On the one hand, the success of this test is still uncertain, after all, many technologies have not been verified in detail. On the other hand, if it attracts too much attention, it may also cause the train to increase the risk.

When the train officially started to move, everyone's heartbeat began to speed up.

But just like before, this time Ning Chen still requested that he could personally participate in the first trial run of the nuclear fusion train.

Some people are even doubting whether their decision is correct at this time, and want to "get off the bus", but are embarrassed to get off because of face.

Regarding the choice of operating lines, Ning Chen hopes to open a train from Shengzhou to Yanjing first.

This section is very suitable for nuclear fusion trains. It is neither too short, which will cause insufficient space for the train to accelerate, nor is it too long, which will put too great a test on the train's operation.

After all, this is the first nuclear fusion train, and it is certainly not something that ordinary people will have the opportunity to ride. Only when the related technologies become more mature will it gradually become more popular.

On the day when the trial run started, everyone came to the station one after another and boarded the train's carriage.

This matter is not as easy to do as imagined, because the speed of the nuclear fusion train is too fast. This was something that was not considered at all when the high-speed rail line was originally planned.

In addition, this also has a special meaning for Ning Chen, because Ning Chen often shuttles between the two places. Every year, Ning Chen goes to Yanjing more than ten times to deal with various matters.

But under Ning Chen's influence, many experts also decided to participate in the first trial run of the nuclear fusion train.

In order to ensure that this trial run can be completed smoothly, the railway department has carefully coordinated the operation plans of other trains to ensure that the nuclear fusion train will not be affected by other high-speed trains.

Some of the reasons for this are the excitement of experiencing new technologies, and some are the nervousness of unknown situations.

Taking these factors into consideration, this train trial run is definitely not suitable to be reflected in the form of live broadcast.

Fortunately, Xingchen Technology has very powerful quantum computers and artificial intelligence technology. With the support of powerful computing power, line planning will not be a big problem.

Under Ning Chen's suggestion, the nuclear fusion train is also preparing to start its first trial run.

Because of the special structure of this train, the seats on the entire train appear to be very high-end. All seats are business-level, making people feel very comfortable while riding.

Before the start of the trial run, everyone discussed it and decided not to announce the news yet. Instead, they would wait until the test was completed and then decide whether to announce the news based on the test situation.

As the core designer of the entire train, Ning Chen’s idea also received unanimous support from everyone.

If this train can really open smoothly, it will be very convenient for Ning Chen, because even if the speed of airplanes and nuclear fusion trains are about the same, taking the train is obviously much more convenient, and the time it takes to board the plane is All saved completely.

Ning Chen's heart was full of excitement and anticipation. Ning Chen would always trust the things he designed, instead of doubting whether these technologies were safe.

This is not only due to Ning Chen's strong self-confidence, but also the support of the data obtained by Ning Chen after conducting many simulations.

Ning Chen is not afraid of taking risks, let alone taking risks casually, but will do his best to ensure the safety of himself and others.

What everyone didn't expect was that the train accelerated very smoothly. Not only did it not make any obvious noise, but it also didn't make people feel bumpy in the carriage. It was so smooth that it felt like it was standing still in a house.

But according to the speed display in the carriage, the train's speed has now reached 300 miles, and it is still accelerating.

By observing the scenery outside the window, you can intuitively feel the lightning-fast speed of the train, and the scenery outside is constantly regressing.

Ning Chen had to admit that putting similar technology into rail trains would indeed be more stable, and since the train tracks were very straight as a whole, it would be more conducive to the acceleration of the trains.

Unconsciously, after a few minutes of acceleration, the train's speed reached one thousand kilometers per hour.

Just during this acceleration process, the train has traveled dozens of kilometers. This speed is really unbelievable to many people.

Because the speed of the nuclear fusion train is too fast, it is definitely not suitable for some short-distance routes. It has already reached its destination before it accelerates to the maximum speed, and this does not include the deceleration process.

Everyone looked at the incredible speed on the screen and couldn't help but started talking enthusiastically.

"I can't believe that now we are moving at a speed close to the speed of sound. And this is on the ground, and we can actually reach the speed that an airplane can reach." "This kind of stability really doesn't feel like a thousand miles. The speed is even more comfortable than taking a normal high-speed rail. This way of traveling is really much more convenient than flying."

"At this speed, we will reach Yanjing in half an hour. If it is during the morning and evening rush hours with traffic jams, it will not take enough time to get from home to the company."

In the relaxed atmosphere, several people who were previously worried about the safety of the nuclear fusion train no longer worried about such issues.

While everyone was chatting, the train suddenly started to slow down.

This is not because there is something wrong with the train suddenly, but because the distance to the destination is not far now. If we don't slow down now, the braking process will not be so smooth in a while.

Compared with the acceleration process, the train's deceleration process is much slower. This is also to maximize the use of the train's power to prevent this power from being wasted.

At the same time, this can also reduce damage to trains and tracks and extend their service life.

In the end, the train stopped steadily at Yanjing Station and successfully completed the journey.

The whole braking process is very comfortable. If it is not for viewing the speed data on the car screen, many people will not even be able to feel the train's braking.

What also surprised everyone was that the entire train took only fifty-eight minutes to reach Yanjing from Shengzhou, which was shorter than everyone had expected.

At this moment, many people had already arrived at the station, just to greet the train of Ning Chen and others.

Seeing that the train finally arrived at the station smoothly, people outside were also very excited and celebrated one after another.

After the door of the carriage opened, Ning Chen and others got out of the car one by one, enjoying everyone's applause and cheers.

"Academician Ning, I am so excited to see our nuclear fusion train approaching. This speed is really unbelievable. Even if a plane takes off at the same time, it may not be able to reach Yanjing in fifty-eight minutes. !”

"Yes, even I am very surprised by this speed. Thanks to the experts from the railway department for their contribution. Without such a good track foundation, I am afraid we would have to start by laying tracks now."

While chatting with the leaders at Yanjing, Ning Chen summarized and analyzed the various data of the trip in his mind.

While riding this train, Ning Chen's brain was always in a highly concentrated state so that he could analyze it as quickly as possible.

After having a brain that can be used as a computer, Ning Chen no longer relies heavily on various machines and software. Many calculations can be solved directly with his own brain.

As before, Ning Chen did not find any obvious abnormalities in the operation of the train. Ning Chen was still very satisfied with the train he designed.

There are just some details, and Ning Chen feels that there is still potential for further improvement. Of course, these small problems can be solved through software settings, and there is no need to modify the hardware.

After having a meal in Yanjing, Ning Chen was not in a hurry to return to Shengzhou. After all, Ning Chen still had a lot of things to deal with when he came to Yanjing.

Ning Chen first went to the Chinese Academy of Sciences to catch up with Yue Jiafeng, chat about some issues in person, and discuss some future scientific research directions together.

Ning Chen keenly discovered that Yue Jiafeng's condition did not seem to be as good as before. Although it did not have much impact on work overall, his energy and vitality were both lower than before.

"Academician Yue, is your recent condition not as good as before?"

After hearing Ning Chen's words, Yue Jiafeng said helplessly:

"Well, I do feel that way. Maybe it's because of the high-intensity work all year round that my body still can't handle it."

Looking at Yue Jiafeng's tired look, Ning Chen couldn't help but feel a little unbearable.

Because of the heavy tasks, Yue Jiafeng's usual work intensity is not weaker than Ning Chen's. What's more, Yue Jiafeng is not strengthened by evolutionary points like Ning Chen, but is just an ordinary person's body, which is definitely unbearable. Long-term, high-intensity work.

"Academician Yue...you should pay more attention to your body and try not to overwork yourself. If your body collapses, no one will be able to deal with these things."

"Hey...it's okay. My job is not irreplaceable. Even if I really can't do it anymore, there will always be someone to take over. But Academician Ning, you must protect your body. Looking at the whole situation, The world, Academician Ning, you are also irreplaceable."

Ning Chen was still a little worried about Yue Jiafeng's physical problems, but at this time, Ning Chen didn't have any good solutions. After all, Yue Jiafeng's position was here, and many tasks were indeed unavoidable.

After once again asking Yue Jiafeng to pay attention to his body, Ning Chen left the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

"Hey, it's time to take a look at Professor Qiu Chengtong."

After coming out of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ning Chen suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Qiu Chengtong for several years.

At first Qiu Chengtong hoped that Ning Chen would take a look at himself every time he came to Yanjing, but Ning Chen also knew that such a goal was not so easy to achieve.

Sometimes, Ning Chen comes to Yanjing to participate in some projects secretly, and it is impossible to expose his whereabouts casually. Sometimes, Ning Chen is too busy with work, and it is difficult to spare time to go to Shuimu University to find Qiu Chengtong.

As Ning Chen's nobleman and mentor on the road to mathematics research, Qiu Chengtong held an extraordinary status in Ning Chen's heart, which made Ning Chen decide to go to Shuimu University.

Ning Chen contacted Qiu Chengtong's assistant and explained his thoughts. Naturally, he was warmly welcomed by Qiu Chengtong.

After arriving at Shuimu University, Ning Chen came to Jingzhai Building and walked to Qiu Chengtong's office.

Qiu Chengtong's condition was better than Ning Chen expected. Even though he was a few years older, he still seemed very energetic and seemed to take good care of himself.
