64: Chapter 64 The artificial sun project is launched, and the world laughs at it as a pipe dream.
"Lin Yun wants to build an 'Artificial Sun' power plant in three months? Hahahaha! Is he crazy?"
In a top-tier physics laboratory in the US, a Nobel Prize-winning titan of physics watched the news released by the Dragon Kingdom and laughed so hard he couldn't straighten his back.
The assistants around him also chimed in with harsh, mocking laughter.
"Three months? Even with the world's top team and the most advanced materials, building a fusion power plant of this scale would take at least ten years!"
"Does he really think he's a god? Just by sketching a few drawings, he can ignite a sun on the ground?"
"Is this the so-called 'genius'? I think he's just a fraud who only knows how to bluff with black technology!"
On social media, these comments spread rapidly.
#Lin Yun Artificial Sun Scam#, #The Joke of Building a Fusion Power Plant in Three Months#, #Science Is Not Mythology#...
These hashtags quickly surged to the top of global trending lists.
Global public opinion held a pessimistic view of Lin Yun's "grand plan."
Even in the Western mainstream media, Lin Yun had been portrayed as an arrogant clown attempting to challenge the laws of physics.
"The people of the Dragon Kingdom have really shot themselves in the foot this time."
"The previous string of 'black technologies' might have been impressive, but this time it involves the most fundamental principle of conservation of energy; no one can break the iron laws of physics!"
"I'd like to see what kind of face he'll have left to sit in that seat three months from now if he can't build that so-called 'Artificial Sun'!"
The uproar on the internet did not affect Lin Yun.
In the capital, at a secret experimental base.
This place had already entered the highest level of military control.
Hundreds of thousands of tons of special steel, thousands of kilometers of superconducting circuits, and mountains of precision equipment were being continuously transported here from all over the country.
At the construction site, hundreds of intelligent engineering robots were excavating foundations, constructing the main structure, and laying pipes at a dazzling speed.
The speed was so fast that it didn't look like they were building a factory, but rather assembling some kind of precision instrument.
"Report to Comrade Lin Yun, the first layer of the fusion containment chamber has been capped."
"Report, the second layer heat exchange system debugging is complete."
"Report, the third layer safety anti-leakage barrier installation is complete."
Hearing the good news coming one after another, a fanatical smile appeared on Xiao Zhang's face.
He turned his head and looked at Lin Yun beside him.
At this moment, Lin Yun was still wearing his simple shirt, his gaze calmly watching the entire construction site.
His expression was as if he were looking at the most ordinary of trifles.
"Let them laugh for a while longer."
"After all, this is the last time they will have the capital to 'mock'."
A faint, cold smile curled at the corners of Lin Yun's mouth.
Three months?
With the support of his "Pangu Computing Center," all design schemes had undergone hundreds of millions of simulation evolutions, shortening the verification process that would have originally taken ten years to the absolute limit.
He was not just building a power plant.
He was replicating the core of a star!
"By the way, Comrade Lin Yun, there is one more thing."
Xiao Zhang hesitated for a moment, then said: "Over in Europe, some scientists have jointly written an open letter accusing us of wasting Earth's energy and demanding that the International Atomic Energy Agency intervene to forcibly stop our plan."
"Intervene?"
Lin Yun scoffed.
"They are afraid."
"They are afraid that we will actually succeed, because then those expensive mineral energy resources and expensive financial derivatives in their hands would truly become worthless paper."
"Ignore them."
"Three days from now, we will conduct the first internal ignition test."
"Since they want to watch, then we will put on a good show for them."
...
Three days later, late at night.
The lights in the entire experimental base were dimmed.
All eyes were focused on that spherical core, which looked like a brilliant pearl.
It was the "magnetic confinement chamber" wrapped in countless precision superconducting coils.
Inside, it was filled with high-purity deuterium-tritium mixed fuel.
Elder Chen stood in front of the control console, his finger gently pressing the red start button.
His forehead was covered in sweat, but his eyes were filled with unprecedented determination.
"Begin."
Lin Yun's voice was as calm as a clear spring.
"Boom!"
The entire power plant instantly emitted a dull hum, as if this sleeping giant beast had awakened at this moment!
Hundreds of millions of units of electrical energy were instantly injected into the coils, creating a terrifying magnetic field that tightly wrapped around the fuel in the center, compressing it!
"Temperature: 50 million degrees!"
"100 million degrees!"
"200 million degrees! Stabilizing!"
The values on the display screen jumped wildly. Everyone in the control room held their breath, their heartbeats so fast it felt like they were about to jump out of their throats.
As long as there was even a tiny bit of leakage during this process, the entire base, and even the surrounding hundred kilometers, would be turned into scorched earth.
But none of this happened!
Because Lin Yun had long since used that entire set of "Quantum Constraint Force Fields" to control all the anomalies!
This is the fundamental difference between "black technology" and "indigenous technology"!
"Ignition sequence, ready."
Lin Yun stood behind everyone, his eyes deep as he watched the glowing point on the screen.
"Countdown, three."
"Two."
"One."
"Ignition!"
"Zzzzzβ"
In that instant, it was not just a point of light on the screen, but a beam capable of piercing the night...
A dazzling radiance!
It hovered steadily in mid-air, like a real star, emitting endless energy!
That was pure, pollution-free energy belonging to the future!
Elder Chen watched that dancing "flame," his hands gripping the control console tightly, tears streaming from his eyes.
"We succeeded..."
"We really succeeded..."
The entire command center was first deathly silent, and then erupted into overwhelming cheers!
Everyone hugged each other tightly; that joy even surpassed the moment the Dragon Kingdom first achieved world-number-one status!
Because they knew.
From this second on.
On Earth, there would never again be panic over energy depletion!
There would never again be wars triggered by energy!
Lin Yun watched that Artificial Sun, his gaze calm.
His gaze passed through the control room, as if seeing the future behind that light.
This was just the first one.
Next, he would use this light to completely illuminate the entire universe!
He took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Princess Anna, tell those so-called 'experts' in Europe."
"Tell them to get ready, because this 'grand show' has only just begun."
"If they don't believe it, then let them open their eyes wide and watch carefully..."
"Just how dazzling this Artificial Sun of mine really is!"
On the other end of the line, Princess Anna looked at the news photo that was being frantically shared all over social media, stunned into silence.
In the photo, that dazzling light was tearing through the night.
And it was also tearing through that so-called "civilized order" that had once mocked the Dragon Kingdom!
