Two days later.
The first ring of the capital.
Looking at the somewhat ancient building in front of him, a few sighs appeared in Lu Yongchang's eyes.
"Let's go, Councilor Li is waiting for you!"
Seeing Lv Yongchang stop in his steps, Hong Qiming hurriedly urged, "Right, the things I asked you to prepare, are they ready?"
Lv Yongchang nodded with a smile and shook the briefcase he was carrying in his hand.
"It's not just the budget sheet, it's already prepared."
Hearing this, Hong Qiming was slightly relieved, "That's good."
"I won't accompany you in this time, everything needs to be handled by you."
"Remember, be more composed, never say anything unrealistic like last time!"
Lu Yongchang nodded with a helpless face.
...
"Duh-duh-duh!"
Standing in front of the heavy wooden door, Lu Yongchang took a deep breath, raised his hand and gently knocked on the door.
"Come in."
A short, strong voice came from inside the door.
"Squeak ..."
Just after pushing open the door of the room, Lu Yongchang saw Councilor Li sitting behind his desk, looking at him with a smiling face.
"Yongchang, you've given me a surprise!"
Councilor Lee stood up with a smile and walked over to Lv Yongchang.
"Have a seat!"
Councilor Li took the lead and sat on the sofa at the side.
Lv Yongchang pondered for a moment, and without excusing himself, he graciously sat down across from Councilor Li.
"What are you going to do next?"
Without any polite words, Councilor Li asked bluntly.
Hearing Councilor Li's question, Lv Yongchang did not hesitate for a moment and spoke directly, "I suggest that the Controlled Nuclear Fusion Demonstration Reactor project be carried out immediately!"
Councilor Li's brows furrowed slightly.
"Demonstration reactor? So soon?"
Lu Yongchang gently nodded, "Currently, we already possess relatively mature controlled nuclear fusion technology, and I feel that this is an opportunity."
"Opportunity?" Councilor Li raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Lv Yongchang in front of him with interest.
"That's right, a chance to catch up with the meter country!"
"A, a chance for Xia to take off again!"
Lv Yongchang's eyes flickered as he said word for word!
Councilor Li's pupils shrunk violently.
He stared meaningfully at Lv Yongchang and said softly, "When we met last time, you said something similar."
"Didn't Hong Qiming instruct you to be more composed? Don't say some unrealistic words."
Lu Yongchang's face was grave as he slowly shook his head.
"Minister Hong reminded me."
"But ... in my opinion, if you don't even dare to have such an idea, Xia will never be able to catch up with Mi!"
"Perhaps in your opinion, controlled nuclear fusion, is just an even better power generation device, which can bring inexhaustible low-cost energy to Xia, am I right?"
Councilor Li fell into silence.
After a long time, he spoke again and asked rhetorically, "Isn't it, isn't it?"
"Of course not!"
Lv Yongchang's emotions were somewhat agitated.
"Controllable nuclear fusion means the key to open a new era!"
"This new era refers to the interstellar era!"
"With Controllable Nuclear Fusion as an energy source, we can set our sights a little farther!"
"The moon, Mars, and even the entire solar system!"
"With nuclear fusion as an energy source, Xia can take the lead in space!"
Seeing Councilor Li's face without waves, Lu Yongchang was ruthless and opened his mouth to give a dose of fierce material!
"The fusion reactor miniaturization project, I already have a few clues."
"If it is successful, Councilor Li, just think about the scenario where our aircraft carriers, submarines, or warplanes, have fusion as an energy source!"
Now, even Councilor Lee couldn't keep his cool!
With a prancing sound, he directly stood up from the sofa and stared at Lv Yongchang in front of him with a burning gaze!
"What you said, can it all be true?!"
Facing Councilor Li's burning gaze, Lv Yongchang's heart pounded a few times.
Originally, in his plan, there were no such words.
After all, this life's Xia Kingdom had accelerated its process by several years compared to the previous life.
Logically speaking, according to the current rate of development, by the end of twenty years, the Summer Kingdom would definitely be able to escape the solar system!
But ... I don t know why, he always has a few worries in his heart.
Perhaps because he had really experienced that feeling of powerlessness at the time of the helium flash outbreak, at this time, Lu Yongchang was like a soldier suffering from the phobia of insufficient firepower.
Only, what he was suffering from was the phobia of insufficient technology.
Especially after seeing those cutting-edge technologies in the technology tree system in his mind, he deeply recognized a problem.
For the universe, human beings, were simply too small!
"Of course!" Lu Yongchang gently nodded and said with a firm face!
"Whew..."
Councilor Li exhaled a deep breath of turbid air, "How much certainty is there?"
The moment he uttered these words, an unprecedented light was released in Councilor Li's eyes!
He had to admit that he was impressed by Lu Yongchang's words!
The moment he heard those words, a smile appeared on Lv Yongchang's face.
He knew that he had gambled right again!
"Ninety percent!"
Lv Yongchang looked at Councilor Li with a firm gaze, "I can make a military order that within half a year, the small fusion reactor program will definitely break through!"
"Good!" A few moments of excitement flashed in Councilor Li's eyes.
"Since this is the case ... then I will believe you once!"
"The current Xia Kingdom can still afford to gamble!"
Lu Yongchang hurriedly struck the iron while it was hot, opened the briefcase placed to the side, took out a document, and handed it to Councilor Li.
"Councilor Li, this is the laboratory's negotiated budget sheet on the Fusion Demonstration Reactor!"
Councilor Lee's breath hitched hard.
In the next moment, he glanced meaningfully at Lu Yongchang: "Are you kid ... ready to convince me already?"
"If I don't agree, what should you do?"
Lv Yongchang's face collapsed and he said with a bitter smile, "Councilor Li, you shouldn't be able to do such a thing, right?"
"Don't you want to see Xia Kingdom getting better and better?"
Councilor Li froze and laughed out loud, "That's right! I didn't realize that at my age, I still can't see things as thoroughly as a brat like you!"
Saying that, Councilor Li reached out and took the document in Lu Yongchang's hand to carefully examine it.
After seeing the string of numbers at the end of the budget table, Councilor Li's expression changed instantly.
"Ahem ... Councilor Lee, this is a nuclear fusion power station after all, and it's normal for the cost to be somewhat high."
Seeing Councilor Li's sudden change in expression, Lu Yongchang hurriedly opened his mouth to explain, "However, I assure you that once the nuclear fusion power station is completed, the benefits it will bring are extremely exaggerated!"
Councilor Li looked at Lv Yongchang with a helpless expression, "Don't worry, I'm not so far gone as to go back on my word."
"Fifty billion dollars, Xia can still take it out!"
Hearing this, Lv Yongchang sighed violently in relief.
This was good.
Councilor Li took the budget sheet and sat back at his desk, then, picking up the fountain pen on the desk, he wrote four large, dragon-flying characters on it.
"Approve the project!"
