Chapter 526: Senior management values your opinion

In November 1985, the US "Air Force One" arrived in Geneva, and then US President Ronald Reagan met with the new Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev to start negotiations on nuclear disarmament.
Against the backdrop of the Iron Curtain, this "fireside meeting" was widely regarded by the outside world as an opportunity to break the ice in the Cold War.
However, Reagan's first meeting with Gorbachev did not make ideal progress. The two sides attacked each other around the "strategic defense plan" and the "Star Wars plan", arguing over "human rights" and "regional issues", and the meeting was on the verge of being unhappy.
At the end of the meeting, around 5 am, the two sides finally agreed to issue a joint statement that did not contain any actual commitments.
It is also at the end of this statement that they are almost footnotes that the two top leaders added an ambiguous guarantee that the two countries will develop a new energy "in the common interest of all mankind".
And this is the origin of the plan.
So the joke that got the US out of the way
Kreber himself knew that this was impossible.
Even though the United States has never completed only 25 of its promised 25 funding, it is itself a politically dependent scientific research project.
Under normal circumstances, research on controlled nuclear fusion can serve as an "island" far from politics.
But the premise of all this is based on the fact that no one knows how distant the future is.
Thinking about this issue from a rational perspective, if he is to choose a partner between American research institutions and Professor Lu, he will undoubtedly choose the latter that has already made significant achievements in this research field.
Unfortunately, as a researcher, he has no say in this matter.
Even the chairman of the Helmholtz Federation, who stood next to him, had no say.
If the United States pressures the organization through the European Union and uses intellectual property as an excuse, it will almost certainly kick China out, just like the original Galileo plan.
Looking at Professor Millek turning away, there was a hint of worry in Kreber's face.
Strictly speaking, this is not something he should consider.
But if what he's worried about really happens, perhaps the organization will face a collapsed ending.
After all, from the beginning, this organization was not so reliable, everyone was together in the same bed.
No one really pinned their hopes on solving the energy problem with controllable fusion energy without knowing how far, but now even sitting in the cafe in the city, he can hear the guys at Greifswald , Gossiping resolved the future of controllable fusion technology.
It is difficult to say whether the light at the foot of the Zijin Mountain ignited the hope of future energy or blown out the last trace of flame on it.
If they didn't have any hope from the beginning, maybe they could go further?
Knocking at the office door was a man in his early thirties who looked a little tall.
According to his self-introduction, his name is He Mingxuan, and he is the secretary of the Chief of Energy Bureau, Director Lu.
When he went to Beijing before, Lu Zhou had seen him, but he hadn't talked.
Although I don't know what happened to the Energy Bureau to find himself, Lu Zhou kindly invited him to sit in.
Sitting next to President Xu, which is opposite Lu Zhou, He Mingxuan said sincerely: "I originally visited you at Zhongshan International, but you were not there. The situation was too sudden, and I took the liberty to disturb you. I'm sorry. "
"It's okay, don't be so polite, anyway, I've been on vacation these two days, not very busy." Looking at the secretary sitting opposite, Lu Zhou said, "And I also want to know, what is causing you so anxious? "
He noticed the sight of Secretary He, and the principal Xu smiled, and thoughtfully put down the tea cup in his hand.
"It seems the two have important things to talk about, so I won't bother here."
He himself has also participated in major national scientific research projects many times, among which there are many sensitive topics in the field of information security. It doesn't matter what he listens to and what he shouldn't listen to, he can still tell the difference.
After speaking, the old man stood up, gave up his office, and walked out the door.
Looking at the office door closing, Secretary He took a deep breath, changed his serious expression, and opened the door and said, "The United States is planning to kick us out."
Hearing this sudden news, Lu Zhou frowned slightly and frowned, "Is the news reliable?"
Secretary He nodded: "The credibility of the message is more than 90%. In fact, they already have signs of doing so."
Hearing this, Lu Zhou's eyebrows could not help but appear a dignified color.
For him, this is definitely not good news.
Although the 2 project is similar to the original project of Huaguo and is not part of the plan, research institutions in various countries have benefited from this cauldron.
If Huaguo withdraws from the plan, it not only means that the tens of billions of
entry fees
previously paid and subsequent investment have been lost. Therefore, domestic controllable nuclear fusion research and exchanges with foreign research institutes for the name of the project are basically also Will be interrupted as a result.
In addition to research losses, billions of orders for Chinese companies are also at risk of being replaced by other member states.
He didn't know much about diplomatic affairs, but from the perspective of scientific research, this was undoubtedly a heavy blow.
Lu Zhou frowned: "Why is there any reason for the United States to do this?"
"The reason is naturally an issue of intellectual property rights. Experts appointed by the US Department of Foreign Affairs asked us on the council. They thought that we had concealed our research results while receiving the technology and violated the spirit of the agreement." A bitter smile appeared on the face, "Of course, you can also assume that you don't need a reason at all."
Yes, there is no reason at all.
After hearing his words, although Lu Zhou understood this meaning, Lu Zhou shook his head.
"This is simply unreasonable. We have made an obligation to disclose the research progress of the controllable fusion project, and have no obligation to disclose more. If the chip used in the main control computer in the device, can I ask them to disclose it? Own chip technology? "
Secretary He silently took out his notebook from his pocket and wrote it down.
Looking at him taking notes, Lu Zhou froze slightly. "What are you doing to take notes?"
"I think what you said is very good," Secretary He smiled helplessly ~ EbookFREE.me ~ At least when we responded in diplomatic occasions, we can say so. "
Although, reasoning is never useless.
After pondering for a while, Lu Zhou asked, "What specific requirements did they make?"
Secretary He: "They requested that an academic visiting team consisting of member states be stationed in the Stellar Institute to participate in the research. And they also asked our company to open up the latest production process of 1 superconducting coils, regarding the modified device Full technical details, and the most critical control options. "
Hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou was lost in thought.
Superconducting materials, for the time being, 1 material itself is a public patent, 1 wire is also a product exported to the outside, and the secret is only the production process developed by Baosheng Group with the assistance of Jinling Advanced Institute.
Regardless of whether the company is public or private, no matter what decision the country makes, it has nothing to do with Lu Zhou.
But the problem with control schemes is big.
The control scheme developed by the Jinda Software Academy cannot be better than the spiral stone 7 laboratory.
The reason why the device can achieve plasma confinement for more than an hour is that half of the credit is 1 superconducting material, and the other half of the credit is basically Xiao Ai.
In short, it was impossible for him to openly control the plan.
Not to mention that making such a request is an unreasonable act in itself.
Looking at the silent Lu Zhou, Secretary He seriously asked: "This matter is very tricky. After learning the news, we have held a two-day meeting for two days, but we still don't get any good. As a result, the senior management values ​​your opinion. If it is not impossible to leave, Director Lu originally planned to visit you in Jinling. "
"What do you think we should do now?"
