Chapter 34: nuclear fusion

The next day, the development meeting was held on time, and a total of more than 1,000 experts participated in this discussion.

Basically, they are elites from all walks of life. They express their opinions and make suggestions.

In fact, the development of any industry has to face the same problems:

Poor, make money!

There are many talents, but poor.

There are many directions for development, but they are poor.

Zhang Ran was dizzy with all kinds of miscellaneous opinions. He is not a professional in this field. There are always advantages and disadvantages to various policies.

He just needs to grasp a general direction.

"Qiuyue, why do you feel that we are so poor..." Zhang Ran had to complain.

Lin Qiuyue took a complete rest for two days. She changed from a haggard girl to a vigorous girl. Her pretty face showed a smile: "Your Highness, you should pay for it yourself. You should still have a lot of money, right?"

"How can I afford so much..." Zhang Ran shuddered.

Poor energy output has become a major limitation at present. The original earth shelter, thermal power and geothermal power generation accounted for at least 60%, but now only nuclear power is left, and energy is naturally stretched.

Fortunately, there are a lot of authoritative people in the big conference room, contributing their intelligence. They tried their best to find a way out.

The leader of the consortium ran away on his own, most of the wealth was confiscated, the gap between the rich and the poor was more than half closed, and most people came to the same starting line.

In this case, a new government means a new level of life!

There is a huge gap between people, and with the current productive forces, it is impossible to completely eliminate classes.

The dependency system is a good opportunity for class transition. Who doesn’t want to stand out earlier?

Therefore, in the absence of vested interests, everyone is actively contributing their intelligence, and they purely want the development of the Great Xia Kingdom to be better. This kind of unselfish advice will only appear in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

"Everyone, I'll just say a few words casually, and I'll take it as a guide." Zhang Ran took a sip of water and said, "First, insist on unshakable public ownership of the economy, this will not change."

"You don't need to talk too much."

"Our priority is to survive, not to vigorously develop the economy."

"It's good to have an active economy, but it's nothing if the economy isn't active. We don't forcibly pursue the growth of GDP. We only pursue the growth of industrial capacity and science and technology. Remember this."

"Insufficient energy, some unimportant industries will be cut off. Don't think about relying on me. My ability to create things is limited, how can I take care of all aspects."

"Of course, a certain degree of private economy is also allowed, but the cornerstones of society, energy output, food output, transportation, etc., must be done by state-owned enterprises. The resources allocated to private enterprises will not be too much."

After all, Zhang Ran is someone who has traveled through. He deeply knows that if a disaster really occurs, the private economy will not come in handy, and public power will still be needed.

Like those private hospitals, they say that they are well-equipped and talented, but when it comes to a critical moment, they are really useless, and they dare not treat even an epidemic patient.

Of course, if you want to create cohesion, it also involves the issue of collective honor, that is, the happiness of the people should not be too low.

In this way, the people will spontaneously maintain collective interests.

Happiness comes from a comparison, that is, the gap between the rich and the poor should not widen too much, the basic life should be decent, and it should not be too lifeless, let alone eating a big pot of rice.

This is a test of political wisdom.

"Also, I still support the development of technology. Some people's ideas should not be too conservative."

"Sit and eat the mountains and the sky, let's have resources in our hands, it's not too small, there is still redundancy in the space of the shelter, and a squeeze can carry up to 100 million people. But it is far from the point of survival for a hundred or ten thousand years."

Zhang Ran knocked on the table: "With the development of technology, the treatment of domestic pollution can be made more efficient, and the energy utilization rate can be increased by 1%. This cost will be recovered."

"By the way, especially nuclear fusion, if nuclear fusion can be achieved, there is no need to worry about energy."

"If you don't have to worry about energy, you can make miracles, right? We don't have to argue here, chips and everything can be launched."

"As long as there is no shortage of energy, the restrictions on private capital will be greatly relaxed, and the industrial capacity will be further improved, and the equipment of the shelter can be gradually updated, so that there will be no problems due to aging."

"If we really come up with some vacuum zero-point energy and a curvature engine, we don't need to be limited to staying in the solar system. We can always find matter when we visit the entire universe."

Zhang Ran's words were quite real, and there was a lot of laughter in the venue.

The atmosphere is much more relaxed.

The vacuum zero-point energy or something is really a bit whimsical. It is already a great achievement to get nuclear fusion out first.

Looking at Lin Qiuyue who was sitting next to her, her beautiful eyebrows were slightly raised, as if she was thinking about something.

Zhang Ran said again: "So, let's be honest, nuclear fusion hasn't been done for so long, is it even possible?"

"Fifty years and 50 years, is it a group of people cheating on funding papers, or is it really possible? Be bold, to tell the truth, you can succeed, but you can't!"

"Your Highness, it is naturally possible."

The speaker was a physicist: "We have accumulated a lot of technology, and there are corresponding papers in the database. But...the related experiments have almost stopped, and the reason is actually the cost factor."

In theory, the raw materials for nuclear fusion power generation are almost endless, but there are also costs.

The initial investment is a huge cost, and the manufacture of super-large tokamak devices~www.wuxiahere.com~ is a bet on a future that does not know tomorrow.

This super-large investment started with a capital scale of 100 billion.

In the past, when the sun was still there, the cost of photovoltaic power generation was already very low, even lower than thermal power generation.

Therefore, nuclear fusion technology is actually a product of a premature death.

Even if it is made, there is a high probability that the cost will not be able to compete with photovoltaic power generation.

Only when it reaches the real mature stage and realizes ultra-large-scale power generation, can the cost be reduced and compete with photovoltaics.

Therefore, it is impossible for countries to spend great efforts to study this thing.

Since the disappearance of the sun, the pressure has come up. The forces of various shelters have thought about investing in nuclear fusion technology jointly.

But without the backing of a great country, the global industrial chain lacks a lot, and high-end components cannot be produced, so this plan cannot continue.

Low-level tokamak devices are meaningless.

Only high-end ones are valuable.

"That's it... So it's really not a scam? Can we get that tokamak?"

"His Royal Highness, I have to admit that we can't complete the most advanced tokamak devices. Although we have 45 million people, the most high-end ones... require a global industrial chain."

"And the more high-end the tokamak, the better, the bigger the better, and the low-level has little meaning."

Zhang Ran had a headache. He thought of the 2,000 creation points in his hand. If humans had this thing, maybe they could really change their lives against the sky.

But a high-end tokamak device is definitely not cheap!

To use his own small treasury, he had a faint liver pain, secretly depressed, thinking hard, racking his brains, scratching his head and touching his ears, but he was not happy.
