128: Chapter 128: Three Major Goals of Phase II Project: Third-Generation Nuclear Fusion! Mass Production of Reactors! Fighter Jet Engines!

"Professor Fu Lihong, Chief Designer Lin is currently performing emergency treatment on Chief Designer Ai. Without his permission, no one is allowed to enter." Captain Liu Zhihui stood guard in front of the ward with two special forces soldiers, refusing Professor Fu Lihong's request to visit.

"Captain, it has been over a dozen hours since yesterday. Has there been any news from Lin Mo?" Captain Liu Zhihui was merely doing his duty, but Professor Fu Lihong was worried about Professor Ai Chongfeng, anxious every single second.

Captain Liu Zhihui shook his head. A whole night had passed, and the ward remained silent. There was no news from Lin Mo, and no one knew what was happening inside. Seeing Captain Liu Zhihui shaking his head to every question, Professor Fu Lihong became even more anxious.

"Captain, could you please go in and pass a message to Lin Mo, just tell him I've arrived." Captain Liu Zhihui looked troubled. How could he just barge in recklessly? "Professor Fu Lihong, why don't you try sending a text message to Chief Designer Lin?"

Hearing this, Professor Fu Lihong felt as if she had grabbed onto a final straw. "Okay! I'll send it now!" She quickly took out her phone and sent a text message to Lin Mo.

[Lin Mo, I have arrived at the ward entrance. How is your mentor? — Professor Fu Lihong, 8:32:13]

After pressing the send button, Professor Fu Lihong let out a sigh of relief, hoping that Lin Mo would reply as soon as possible. Just as Professor Fu Lihong turned around, intending to ask Professor Ai Chongfeng's two colleagues for more details, "Ding-dong!" Her phone suddenly sounded with a crisp text message notification.

[Madam, please wait a moment. Mentor is currently using the restroom, I will come out immediately. — Lin Mo, 8:32:23]

Looking at the text, Professor Fu Lihong was stunned. A reply in 10 seconds? And with so many characters? Unless he had been playing on his phone the whole time, it shouldn't be possible to be that fast... Professor Fu Lihong was completely baffled. Suddenly, the ward door opened. "Madam, please come in."

... Over an hour later.

"Mentor, then I will take my leave." On the hospital bed, Professor Ai Chongfeng smiled and waved his hand, saying with a full, resonant voice, "Go ahead, Lin Mo. Now is the time when the country needs you most!"

Seeing Professor Ai Chongfeng getting a bit carried away, Lin Mo coughed slightly. Professor Ai Chongfeng understood immediately, clutching his chest and pretending to be in pain. "Professor Fu Lihong, get some paper, I need to cough." Professor Fu Lihong hurriedly grabbed a tissue and handed it over.

Professor Ai Chongfeng subconsciously reached out to take it, but suddenly realized his mistake and made his hand tremble violently as he took the tissue. "Professor Ai Chongfeng, don't reach out, let me wipe it for you!" "Cough, cough, cough!" Professor Ai Chongfeng managed to produce some saliva and spat onto the paper, saying "weakly," "I feel much better, Professor Fu Lihong."

Professor Fu Lihong scolded him. "You, oh you. Lin Mo worked so hard to save you, so rest more and talk less!" "Okay, okay, cough, cough, cough!..." Lin Mo held back a laugh, reminded him to take his medicine, and left the ward. "Captain Liu Zhihui, let's go, back to the Nuclear Research Institute."

... October 8th, afternoon, Nuclear Physics Research Institute, office building conference hall. Xiang Guangming and the vast majority of project executives were summoned.

"Chief Designer Lin, are you saying that Professor Ai Chongfeng has been saved?" Xiang Guangming was impatient, and others chimed in.

Professor Ai Chongfeng was a comrade who had fought alongside everyone. Through word of mouth, Professor Ai Chongfeng's deeds from yesterday had spread. On his deathbed, with his remaining strength, he sang "The Internationale" to the Motherland of China, bidding his final farewell to the world. Just hearing about that scene was deeply moving! "He is out of the danger period."

Upon receiving the affirmative reply from Lin Mo, everyone was instantly overjoyed. "That's great, that's really great!" "It's good that he's okay, it's good that he's okay!" At the same time, everyone was amazed. This was terminal cancer, and Lin Mo actually had a way to treat it! Using a family secret recipe of traditional chinese medicine, it was simply a medical miracle!

Such mysterious matters were highly transmissible, and everyone started discussing it. Some "know-it-alls" swore that someone they knew in their family had been declared hopeless by the hospital and told to go home and wait for death. But after finding an old practitioner of traditional chinese medicine in the village and taking a few doses of traditional chinese medicine, their condition immediately improved. It had been several years now, and the person was getting better and better. Blah, blah, blah—anyway, traditional chinese medicine was awesome! How could that Western stuff compare to what the ancestors passed down?

"Ahem!" From the head seat, seeing the discussion going off-track, Lin Mo quickly spoke up: "Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me for a moment!" The noise in the conference hall instantly vanished, and it quickly became silent. Lin Mo scanned the crowd and said with a serious expression: "Everyone, Western medicine is not just the medical art of Westerners, but a modernized medical Science that has developed alongside the progress of Science!"

"Do not think that just because I used a secret recipe of traditional chinese medicine to save Chief Designer Ai, traditional chinese medicine can cure all diseases." "Such narrow-minded thinking will only harm yourself and your family!"

Lin Mo cited several realistic examples to emphasize this, repeating his warnings over and over, fearing that these people might get hot-headed and, if they or their families were sick, would not go to the hospital for treatment but instead run into the deep mountains and forests to find some old practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, only to be deceived by charlatans and end up stupidly dead. Wouldn't that make him a huge sinner? "Chief Designer Lin, you are right, we will definitely keep it in mind!"

Seeing this, Lin Mo said no more and officially entered the main topic of the meeting. "Engineer Wang, how is the Xihe Device running?" The senior engineer responsible for stability testing stood up and replied excitedly. "Report to Chief Designer Lin! As of half an hour ago, the 'Xihe Device' has been running stably for 24 hours, and the comprehensive stability rate has remained at 99.98%!" "It has passed the stability test!"

The Xihe Device is a miniaturized reaction device, and the stellarator structure is more stable, so the comprehensive stability monitoring did not need to take too long; 24 hours was completely sufficient. Lin Mo nodded, looked at the crowd, smiled, and said loudly. "Very good!" "Phase I of the China Project Houyi is considered a complete success!" "Thank you all for your hard work over the past few days, you have all worked hard!"

Everyone was extremely excited, stood up, and applauded desperately. The conference hall was instantly filled with thunderous applause; this was the glory that belonged to all of them! When the applause stopped, Lin Mo restrained his smile. "Everyone, a ten-thousand-story building rises from the ground!" "The Phase I project we have achieved today is just the beginning, it is the first step of a long march!"

"The energy system is the core of the 'China Five-Year Plan', and we must proceed urgently to launch the Phase II project of Project Houyi!" "Regarding the Phase II project of Project Houyi, we mainly have three major goals!" Lin Mo held up three fingers, "The first major goal is to skip the second-generation nuclear fusion technology and directly break through to the third-generation Helium-3 nuclear fusion technology!"

"The second major goal is to establish two major industrial chains for thermal nuclear and cold nuclear, and realize the industrial mass production of all components for Tokamaks and stellarators!" "The third major goal is to use the 'Xihe Device' to create a fighter engine, while simultaneously developing superconducting energy storage batteries to build a new fighter energy system adapted for the 'Xuan-Nu' fighter!" "It is now November 8th, and my requirement is that by December 31st of this year, all three major goals must be completed!"

Having said this, Lin Mo scanned the crowd and said firmly. "I must specifically state that for the Phase II project of Project Houyi, I will only provide technical data and will no longer personally lead it!" "Academician Xiang Guangming will serve as the general leader of the Phase II project and will have full authority to manage the project's progress!" Many other planned projects were waiting on him, and he could not afford to waste any more time here. ... (Thank you all for clicking to support with love)
