Chapter 34 - Chapter 33 Recruiting

After the construction of the fusion demonstration reactor started, the task on Lu Yongchang's shoulders became recruiting people.

After all, there are only more than ten researchers in the Nuclear Physics Laboratory of Sandaokou University.

If we want to complete the research task of the fusion demonstration reactor, it is definitely not enough to rely on just a dozen researchers.

Any technology, moving from the laboratory to commercial use, involves countless difficulties.

This is especially true for large-scale technologies such as controlled nuclear fusion!

Although Lu Yongchang has now solved the most critical problem of maintaining controlled nuclear fusion, they still need to solve countless problems if they want to realize the commercial application of controlled nuclear fusion.

For example, the master control program of a nuclear fusion demonstration reactor.

It's impossible that after we build a demonstration reactor, we have to have a few researchers monitor all the data in the reactor like in a laboratory, right?

For example, the installed capacity of the nuclear fusion demonstration reactor.

Although Lu Yongchang has finalized the method of generating electricity for the fusion reactor, they have not made a specific plan.

Therefore, if he wants to truly achieve controlled nuclear fusion, Lu Yongchang needs to at least expand the number of his researchers several times!

Capital University of Science and Technology.

Lu Hezheng returned to his office with a frustrated look on his face.

As a professor of nuclear physics at the Capital University of Science and Technology, his original main research project was the tokamak device.

After all, two months ago, the tokamak device was still the mainstream device for achieving controlled nuclear fusion!

But... after Lu Yongchang wrote those words on the blackboard, everything changed!

Especially after the nuclear physics laboratory of Sandaokou University successfully operated controlled nuclear fusion, almost all laboratories in Xia Country that were researching controlled nuclear fusion stopped their projects.

What followed was "layoffs".

What a coincidence.

Lu Hezheng is one of the researchers who was "laid off".

This also led to an extremely embarrassing situation.

Lu Hezheng currently has no scientific research tasks on hand.

It would be a joke if you told others about it.

As a professor at Beijing University of Science and Technology, he did not have any scientific research tasks on hand.

Thinking of the responses he received from the major nuclear physics laboratories in Xia State a few days ago, Lu Hezheng sighed deeply.

Because the Canghai Bay controlled nuclear fusion demonstration reactor project has begun construction, all major nuclear physics laboratories in Xia State are basically in a state of suspension.

"Why..."

Lu Hezheng looked at the unchanging scenery outside the window and sighed again.

"Ding-ling-ling!"

A shrill telephone ring sounded.

Lu Hezheng, who was staring out the window in a daze, suddenly trembled.

He suddenly turned around and looked at the landline phone on the desk next to him, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

Who else would call him at a time like this?

Now, apart from some university teaching tasks, he has become a complete idler!

Lu Hezheng walked to the phone with a frown on his face, and leaned over to look at the LCD screen.

A number I've never seen before.

Lu Hezheng's frown deepened.

Could it be... a pyramid scheme call?

That's not right. Even MLM calls can't get through to this phone number!

While thinking, Lu Hezheng reached out and answered the phone.

"Hello?"

A slightly calm male voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, is this Professor Lu Hezheng from Jingcheng University of Science and Technology?"

Lu Hezheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I am, and you are..."

"Hello, Professor Lu. I am Lv Yongchang from the Nuclear Physics Laboratory of Sandaokou University. May I ask, were you a researcher at the Nuclear Physics Laboratory of Beijing University of Science and Technology some time ago?"

The moment he heard these words, Lu Hezheng's heart skipped a beat!

Lu Yongchang...

As a professor of nuclear physics, how could he not know what this name means? !

This is the chief engineer of the controlled nuclear fusion demonstration reactor!

Lu Hezheng swallowed slightly, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, yes, I was a researcher there some time ago..."

Before he could finish his words, a questioning voice came from the other end of the phone again.

"Professor Lu, the Canghai Bay Fusion Demonstration Reactor is still in need of some researchers. Are you interested?"

A gleam of light suddenly burst out from Lu Hezheng's eyes!

He nodded vigorously: "Yes! I'm interested!"

How can this not be interesting?!

This is a researcher of the controlled nuclear fusion demonstration reactor project!

"Well, Professor Lu, please go to the Beijing Railway Station at 9:30 tomorrow morning. The high-speed train ticket to Canghai City has been purchased for you."

"Once you arrive in Canghai City, someone will naturally take you to the temporary research institute."

Lu Hezheng quickly asked, "Then... Professor Lu, do you need me to provide your identity information to buy the ticket?"

There was silence in the microphone.

After a while, a faint voice came from the microphone: "Don't worry, Professor Lu, the ticket has been bought, you can check your mobile phone text messages."

After that, before Lu Hezheng could speak, the phone was hung up.

"bite!"

A text message reminder sounded.

Lu Hezheng quickly reached into his pocket and took out his cell phone, unlocked the screen and checked it.

"Mr. Lu Hezheng, the high-speed train from Beijing to Canghai City will depart on time at 9:30 tomorrow morning. Please bring your relevant documents and wait in the waiting hall in advance..."

The next afternoon, Lu Hezheng walked out of Canghai Railway Station dragging his suitcase.

Looking at the busy train station in front of him, Lu Hezheng was confused for a moment.

This...where should he go to find someone?

Just as Lu He was struggling, a man in military uniform walked up to him.

"Hello, Professor Lu!"

The man saluted him with a very standard military salute: "I am Du Zhen, and I have been ordered to take you to the temporary research institute!"

In an instant, Lu Hezheng felt countless astonished eyes cast upon him.

"Hehe, no need to salute, no need to salute. Well, I am Lu Hezheng. Let's go!" Lu Hezheng said somewhat embarrassedly.

Du Zhen chuckled, reached out to take the suitcase from Lu Hezheng's hand, and walked forward.

In just over an hour's drive, Lu Hezheng passed three checkpoints.

He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Are the control measures at the demonstration pile so strict..."

Du Zhen, who was driving, smiled and nodded: "Professor Lu, this is nothing."

"Canghai Bay is now under full martial law. I estimate that there are at least a brigade of troops stationed here!"

"and..."

At this point, Du Zhen showed a mysterious smile on his face: "I heard that Xia Country even parked its aircraft carrier fleet near Canghai Bay!"

Lu Hezheng's pupils suddenly shrank, and he exclaimed: "Aircraft carrier fleet?!"

"Is this necessary?!"

Du Zhen shrugged as he drove: "I don't know either, but... the order I received was to get you safely to the temporary research institute at all costs."

"Of course, it's not just you. We have more than a hundred researchers to pick up in total."
