Volume 2 Academic Career Chapter 800: Expectations Come True, Kuafu Chases the Sun

No one would doubt the truthfulness of Chen Zhou's words, and no one would think about whether they should show themselves.

At this moment, they all had only one idea, which was to not hold Chen Zhou back, and to do their own research work well according to what Chen Zhou said, so as to synchronize theory and experiment as soon as possible.

For more than three years, nearly four years, they had been working hard, and at this last moment, they were holding their breath.

After the seminar was over and all matters were finalized, everyone left in batches. Li Zhenbang left behind Chen Zhou and Mr. Pan.

"What? Director Li wants to treat us to dinner?" Chen Zhou said jokingly.

Li Zhenbang also smiled and said, "Then let's go. I'll treat our commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief to a meal ."

Chen Zhou was about to refuse, thinking about going back to accompany Yang Yiyi earlier, but he saw Pan Laoxian said, "Let's go, it's rare that Director Li treats us!"

After Mr. Pan finished speaking, he and Li Zhenbang looked at Chen Zhou.

Chen Zhou nodded silently, then took out his cell phone to report to Yang Yiyi.

Seeing this, Li Zhenbang and Pan Lao just smiled and said nothing.

The place where we had dinner was a small restaurant with a nice environment and the food was also excellent.

"Academician Chen, thank you." After the meal, Li Zhenbang and Mr. Pan looked at each other and said at the same time.

Hearing this, Chen Zhou was obviously stunned, and then looked at the two of them: "No need to thank me, this is the result of our joint efforts."

Before the two could speak, Chen Zhou continued, "I am more of a paper-level theorist. I can guarantee the correctness of the theory."

"But it is impossible to complete the entire research just by ensuring the theory. Only by synchronizing theory and experiment, using theory to guide experiment and using experiment to feedback theory, can the entire research move forward in a positive direction."

"Without your support and understanding, the current Kuafu project would certainly not have achieved the current progress. So, let's not thank each other, and let's get through the final stage together."

What Chen Zhou said was from his heart. Even without Li Zhenbang and Pan Lao, he would also conduct research on controlled nuclear fusion technology. After all, the "answer to the energy solution" is there.

But without Li Zhenbang and Mr. Pan, the overall research progress would never have reached its current level, let alone three to five years.

The energy of an individual can never be compared to the energy of a group.

Of course, Chen Zhou would not deny his absolute role in the entire research, which is incomparable to anyone else.

Li Zhenbang and Mr. Pan looked at each other again, and they both laughed out loud at the same time.

Li Zhenbang said: "What do you think? I thought he would say that, right? We just need to support his research work!"

Mr. Pan sighed: "He doesn't take credit for himself, and he's not arrogant, but we can't help but know that, right?"

"We all know!" Li Zhenbang replied meaningfully, pointing upwards.

Seeing this, Mr. Pan said nothing more and turned to look at Chen Zhou: "Academician Chen, I really have to say thank you to you. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have seen the realization of this project in my lifetime."

"I guess I can only wait until I die and let my son come to my grave in the future and tell me that we have achieved controlled nuclear fusion technology!"

"Hey! Mr. Pan, what are you talking about?" Li Zhenbang interrupted hurriedly, "I'm inviting you to dinner today, not to express my feelings!"

"Yes, the old man thinks too much..." Old Pan also restrained his emotions and a smile appeared on his face.

Chen Zhou looked at Mr. Pan and knew that the older generation of scientists had special feelings, but only after close contact could one feel the power of these feelings.

"Mr. Pan, don't worry, the final realization is not far away." Chen Zhou said.

Seeing this, Li Zhenbang wanted to change the subject, so he said, "Academician Chen, I know that the closer we get to the end, the more difficult it will be..."

However, before he could finish, Chen Zhou touched his nose and interrupted him a little embarrassedly: "It's not that difficult. You know me."

Li Zhenbang: “…”

When Mr. Pan heard this, he laughed from the bottom of his heart.

Li Zhenbang had no choice but to say that if there was any need, he would give his full support!

It was a very harmonious meal.

In fact, the purpose of Li Zhenbang inviting the two to dinner was to ask them to guard the last checkpoint and not to take it lightly.

But in the end, I didn't say it.

…

Autumn goes and winter comes, time flies.

Following a step-by-step approach, Chen Zhou had pushed the research progress of "The Answer to Energy Solution" to 99% by the end of December.

Just the last 1%.

In this last step, Chen Zhou did not continue to stay on the draft paper, but appeared more often in the laboratory.

He intends to use simultaneous breakthroughs in theory and experiment to announce the completion of the "Kuafu" project!

Although the researchers were somewhat uncomfortable with Chen Zhou's appearance, they all showed more enthusiasm and devoted themselves to the experimental research with a more rigorous attitude.

After all, it is a rare opportunity to have the commander-in-chief Chen Zhou personally in charge.

They didn't want to make any low-level mistakes in front of Chen Zhou.

Another Spring Festival has arrived, but for the "Kuafu" project research team , they are now stuck in a straight line.

Apart from resting and experimenting, I don’t even remember taking any holidays.

Also because it was a critical moment, all personnel shut down their communication facilities and began to isolate themselves from the outside world.

Speaking of which, their families were very understanding and proud.

He even reminded them not to hold Chen Zhou back, but to do their own research well and complete the research work under Chen Zhou's leadership.

Naturally, these news also reached Chen Zhou's ears.

Chen Zhou was just thinking, it’s almost time, they will be given a long vacation.

"Commander-in-chief, this is the latest experimental data!"

Mr. Pan walked into Chen Zhou's office with a stack of documents in his hand.

Chen Zhou stood up, took the information, and roughly scanned it: "Are you having any problems?"

Mr. Pan nodded: "When the progress broke through from 98% to 99%, an unsolvable problem arose."

"Okay, I got it. Wait for my news."

After saying that, Chen Zhou took the information and sat back down.

Seeing this, Mr. Pan also left the office.

"Is it a problem of magnetic confinement ?"

After reading all the research materials, Chen Zhou murmured to himself, while analyzing the solution in his mind.

After spending a week to solve this problem, the research of the "Kuafu" project successfully reached 99% progress in synchronization between theory and experiment.

After receiving the first-hand research data, Chen Zhou immediately began to sort out the data and started to break through the last 1% of progress...

October 1, 2023.

This is a double holiday combining Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day.

This day is destined to be recorded in academic history and in the annals of China's major events.

Inside the laboratory of the "Kuafu" project, everyone looked nervously at the control console in front of them, looking at the young but unusually tall figure.

The researchers turned on the switches of the console in an orderly manner, waiting for him to give the final order for the experiment.

Chen Zhou's expression was quite relaxed. With everything ready, he believed in his theoretical results and his calculations.

Without any hesitation, he said:

"5"

"4"

"3"

“2”

"1"

"Fusion ignition!"

With the issuance of this order, the final verification of the " Kuafu " project began immediately.

“Ignition successful!”

"The device is operating normally!"
