Infrastructure: Start to Repair The Elevator in Mount Everest

Chapter 215

A staff member also smiled and looked at Li Qi:

“If this is over, then it will not be worthy of being a spaceflight material.”

Ba Zi Hu smiled and said: “Add another five hundred kilograms!”

Add 500 kilograms 1

At this moment, Li Qi and Su Mingyu looked at each other, both of them felt like old hats, like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden. Everything here, for them, is simply incredible!

There was a ‘boom’.

Another 500 kilograms was added to the pallet.

Not moving.

The eight-character Hu waved his hand: “Continue!”

One thousand six hundred kilograms!

One thousand seven hundred kilograms!

One thousand eight hundred kilograms!

One thousand nine hundred kilograms!

When the weight was added to two thousand kilograms, Li Qi suddenly shrank his pupils.

He suddenly saw that the aluminum-magnesium alloy wire was like a rubber band, suddenly stretched down, and then bounced up again.

“This? My illusion?”

Su Mingyu also took a deep breath: “This toughness…this tensile strength.”

Two tons!

The weight of two tons is pulled by the 5mm aluminum-magnesium alloy, and at this time, the aluminum-magnesium alloy has some elasticity in it. Very strange elasticity, this kind of elasticity shouldn’t appear on metal, but 790 appears on aluminum-magnesium alloy.

Eight-character Hu Shen said: “Add another hundred kilograms.”

“Yes!”

Another one hundred kilogram weight was put on it.

At this moment, Li Qi knew. It was not an illusion that he saw it bounce just now…

Because of the weight hanging from the aluminum-magnesium alloy wire, it began to fall…

The length of two meters was stretched into two meters and five centimeters!

Li Qi’s eyes widened: “It was actually stretched by five centimeters!”

Ba Zi Hu smiled: “This is its characteristic, the rare extensibility in metal.”

Li Qi said: “Its limit is two thousand one hundred kilograms.”

“No, two thousand one hundred kilograms only aroused its extensibility.”

As he said, Hu Shen said: “Continue to add. One hundred and one hundred!”

“Yes!”

Two thousand two hundred kilograms!

It was stretched five centimeters again.

Two thousand three hundred kilograms.

Two thousand four hundred kilograms!

Two thousand five hundred kilograms…

Tons of time.

It has been elongated by thirty centimeters!

Then hung a weight of 2,500 kilograms, which flicked one by one.

With the addition of one hundred kilograms at the end.

With a ‘crash’, the aluminum-magnesium alloy wire broke.

“The limit is in tons!”

Li Qi took a deep breath, looking at the broken aluminum-magnesium alloy wire, she couldn’t help being shocked by the power of technology. The mechanics of materials is simply amazing.

The 5mm aluminum-magnesium alloy wire can withstand a weight of 2,500 kilograms!

And at two tons, it was stimulated to extensibility. After stimulating the extensibility, it took another 500 kilograms before it broke off.

Bazi Hu put the two broken materials on the electronic scale:

“The two-meter-long 5 mm iron wire weighs 130 grams.”

When he put the two-meter-long aluminum-magnesium alloy on the electronic scale, a number appeared: 25

“25 grams!”

Su Mingyu exclaimed:

“25 grams of aluminum-magnesium alloy wire pulled up a ton of weight!”

Incredible!

There was only one thought in the two of them, which was incredible.

Li Qi excitedly grabbed Hu’s hand:

“Does it produce energy?”

Ba Zi Hu smiled: “I said that my country accounts for 60% of the global magnesium reserves…”

“I mean, can aluminum-magnesium alloy be mass-produced?”

Bazi Hu continued: “The Middle East is rich in oil, so the oil industry in the Middle East is very developed. Whatever country has, it will definitely develop its greatest value. And my country’s magnesium ore reserves account for 60% of the world, so , my country’s development and research of magnesium ore is at the leading level in the world!”

“It can be mass-produced. But it has a drawback.”

Li Qi asked hurriedly: “What’s the disadvantage?”

Bazi Hu sighed: “Magnesium ore is not easy to refine. Because it is in a dissolved state, it is flammable and explosive. Magnesium is very active in nature. If you want large-scale mass production and rapid mass production, we It is necessary to overcome the flammability and explosive shortcomings of magnesium.”

Li Qi asked in a deep voice: “So there is no theoretical solution to all research?”

The eight-character Hu gave a wry smile: “This is a problem of basic science and basic industry. It is not a theoretical problem. However, there is a dumb way.”

“Please speak.”

The eight-character Hu Shensheng said: “If the probability of a magnesium explosion is one in ten. A magnesium ore processing plant will explode once when it produces ten magnesia ore, and then it has to deal with the scene. If it can produce 90 kilograms of magnesium ore a day. So theoretically. If ten more processing plants are opened, this problem will be solved quantitatively…”

Li Qi: “…”

Sure enough, tm’s stupid way.

In other words, it is a one-tenth of the failure rate. It became a 10% failure rate…

The eight-character Hu smiled bitterly: “There is no way. Magnesium is unstable, and many factors can cause it to explode. It will explode in the dissolved state, and it will explode when the aluminum alloy is mixed. Even before the finished product, it may still explode. Spontaneous combustion…There are many factors in this. There is definitely no solution in a short time, so there is only a dumb way.”

Li Qi pondered:

“I voted.”

“What’s the meaning?”

“I said, I invested in these magnesium ore processing plants. Yishan Reclamation plans to devote 20 billion yuan to invest in magnesium ore. The technology is not enough, and it depends on the quantity. If the quantity is large enough, it can also be calculated from the quantity. Analyze some successful experiences.”

Everyone in the institute was dumbfounded.

This is the richest company in the world?

Just opening the mouth is to invest 20 billion?

Bazi Hu said:

“Then you just pay the money, and we will leave the rest to us.”

“…”

After leaving behind a financial and accounting for moving mountains and reclaiming the sea, Li Qi and Su Mingyu hurriedly left the Materials Research Institute after clearing up the follow-up funding problems.

At this moment, the main material of the space elevator is finalized.

Aluminum-magnesium alloy!

But Bazi Hu has done research and decision, if more time is given to the department, the carbon element in the material will be removed a second time, and its strength will be even greater. Of course, Li Qi can’t help with these technical issues. All he can do is to tell Ba Zi Hu, and tell him if there is a problem, as long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem!

I’m grateful for Bazi Hu, I’ve never seen such a generous capitalist after studying materials for so many years.

The aluminum-magnesium alloy thing, to be honest, it doesn’t make money…

Because this stuff belongs to aerospace materials, the market is very small. And most of them stay in the country for their own use, and export restrictions are very large. But Li Qi still researches to invest 20 billion without blinking, and even adds additional investment later. This makes Ba Zi Hu extremely emotional.

After leaving the Materials Research Institute, Su Mingyu looked solemnly in his eyes: “The material problem has been solved. You have a good idea about the technical problem. Scientists in China will cooperate with you.”

“But now, there is a political issue, have you thought about it?”

A deep touch flashed in Li Qi’s eyes:

“Now, it is time to solve this problem…”.
