87: Chapter 87 Soothing Expert, Academician Jiang Chen
While large numbers of people were immigrating to the United States, immersed in the upcoming Great Genetic Era.
Jiang Chen remained at the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals test site, working hard.
With the cooperation of dozens of researchers from the Longke Academy, he finally successfully installed the Xinhuo Xiangchuan Energy Device onto Cuihua.
Cuihua was originally equipped with the Kuafu Chasing the Sun Propulsion System, and her original energy device was not bad, utilizing a dual-drive system of electricity and heavy oil.
After this modification, she adopted the Xinhuo Xiangchuan Energy Device.
Not only was the power greater, but the endurance was also much stronger.
Previously, she needed to be recharged about once a week.
But now!
According to the energy consumption parameters of the energy device, a single charge could now last for three months.
"General Manager Jiang, this energy consumption parameter is simply heaven-defying."
"The overall energy performance is over a hundred times higher than before!"
A researcher was stunned after seeing Cuihua's backend data.
For a mecha like Cuihua, energy consumption is massive.
Recharging once a week was already very high frequency.
But now.
After the modification, Cuihua's energy consumption had dropped to a very low level.
Yet, the parameters for combat power, defensive capability, and speed had not decreased at all.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly; as expected of the Xinhuo Xiangchuan Energy Device. He hadn't even created Controlled Nuclear Fusion yet, and it could already increase endurance to three months.
Once Controlled Nuclear Fusion is developed, it won't just be three months; it could be a year, two years, or even infinite endurance!
This is the terrifying aspect of Controlled Nuclear Fusion: infinite energy!
"Jiang Chen, how are things going with the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals recently?"
"I heard from Colonel Wei at the military factory that you recently produced a new batch of design blueprints for energy devices?"
Just then, Xia Zhongxun walked over slowly and asked kindly.
Recently, the military factory had been running at full capacity, producing Heavenly Soldiers and Generals models and the Kuafu Chasing the Sun Propulsion System.
Their production lines were almost smoking, yet Jiang Chen had brought over another batch of brand-new design blueprints for what were claimed to be energy devices. The parts on them were more bizarre than the last, requiring them to re-mobilize personnel and create molds according to the requirements.
As a result, they were working overtime through the night, and they were a bit short-handed.
So they went to Xia Zhongxun to ask about the importance of this energy device.
If it wasn't very important, they would postpone the plan.
Facing Xia Zhongxun's inquiry, Jiang Chen directly handed the experimental parameters and data to him: "This is an energy device called the Xinhuo Xiangchuan Energy Device. It can reduce energy loss and improve the overall performance parameters of the mecha. Currently, Cuihua's energy consumption has improved by at least a hundred times..."
"Furthermore, if this energy device can be perfectly implemented in magnetic confinement experiments, we might be able to create Controlled Nuclear Fusion."
Jiang Chen said.
This energy device, in addition to providing power to the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, could also lead to the development of Controlled Nuclear Fusion.
And the value of Controlled Nuclear Fusion to the entire society is immense.
Controlled Nuclear Fusion?
Xia Zhongxun's eyelids twitched violently upon hearing this.
Controlled Nuclear Fusion is the most important link in the Nantianmen Project.
If this link could be bridged, the entire Nantianmen Project would be completed at least ten years early.
According to the original plan, it would take at least twenty years to achieve industrialization of Controlled Nuclear Fusion.
Xia Zhongxun hurriedly took the experimental data and began to read it carefully.
Every piece of data in it was recorded in detail from the computer, with detailed records of exactly when each one was generated.
After he finished reading, he was also stunned.
This energy device was actually so powerful!
"Jiang Chen! Well done, I certainly didn't misjudge you!"
"I will apply to my superiors immediately to mobilize another military factory specifically to produce this energy device."
"You continue with your experiments!"
Xia Zhongxun hurried away.
He took the experimental data and design blueprints to find the relevant departments to apply for more military factories.
"Clean up the test site, we'll test again tomorrow."
After giving instructions, Jiang Chen prepared to leave the Longke Academy.
While passing by the chemistry experiment building.
Several old professors in white coats were discussing animatedly.
"This new female doctor really has great ideas; she actually created a gene serum with high human molecular activity..."
"Yes, according to various data, this serum can slow down the decay of human telomeres, which means it has the effect of extending life! I estimate at least ten years!"
"That so-called Sigma from the other side of the ocean only claims to extend life by five years, but ours is at least ten years... This is simply a major breakthrough in the field of biochemistry."
"Most importantly, we haven't found any side effects with ours yet, but that one from the United States might not be the case."
"I heard that Academician Wang has already made Shu Yin a permanent staff member and plans to promote her to an expert in the field of chemistry at the next large meeting!"
"Young and promising!"
This group of people discussed animatedly as they walked past Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly; he knew this was because the Life No. 1 Serum had its parameters tested.
A certain breakthrough had already been achieved.
However, he didn't care about such titles and turned to leave the Longke Academy.
Meanwhile.
At a confidential cloud meeting.
The heads of twenty core departments had gathered once again.
"Colleagues, the Xinhuo Xiangchuan Energy Device designed by Jiang Chen this time is of great significance and involves a major breakthrough in Controlled Nuclear Fusion!"
"I urge all leaders to approve another military factory to produce this energy device for us."
Xia Zhongxun, as the head of the Longke Academy, was the first to speak.
As soon as he spoke, he stated Jiang Chen's request.
Currently, the military factory dedicated to the Longke Academy was already working overtime to the point of smoking.
Another military factory must be approved to cope with the subsequent various production needs.
At the cloud meeting, the heads of the major departments were reviewing the design blueprints, various experimental parameters, parts currently being produced by the military factory, and other materials submitted by Xia Zhongxun.
After a full half hour.
After everyone finished reading, expressions of gravity appeared on their faces.
This series of materials all showed that the Longke Academy was currently in a state of explosive technological achievement.
So much so that the military factory was a bit overwhelmed.
"The Longke Academy has had an explosion of technological achievements recently; approving just one more military factory might not be enough. I suggest two."
A big shot from the military department spoke up.
The more technological achievements, the better it is for the military.
So he supported it.
"Alright, let's vote, three options."
"A: Approve one, B: Approve two, C: Approve two official and one reserve."
The big shot presiding over the meeting presented three options based on everyone's suggestions.
One minute later.
The results were out.
11 departments chose C!
"Alright, the vote is passed: approve two official military factories and one reserve, to be put into official use at any time based on production capacity," the host announced. "If there are no problems, this meeting is adjourned."
"Wait, I have a question."
Suddenly!
A big shot from the Ministry of Science and Technology suddenly asked.
"This person in charge of the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals has almost created Controlled Nuclear Fusion; shouldn't he be elected as an Academician?"
The cloud meeting went silent for a moment.
Then everyone whispered to each other.
Brain-like Chip, Kuafu Chasing the Sun Propulsion System, Xinhuo Xiangchuan Energy Device, Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, Carbon-9 molecular material...
Each of these items was enough to become an Academician candidate.
And Jiang Chen had achieved all of these simultaneously.
"Come on, let's continue voting!"
