Just as the 1300-second ignition result achieved by the China-controlled nuclear fusion EAST device completely ignited the popularity of controlled nuclear fusion technology and shocked the entire controlled nuclear fusion physics community, the Alps-Costa Azure region, located in the iTER laboratory in the suburbs of this small town, researchers and engineers still went to and from get off work, ordinary to complete the work at hand, and then casually chatted while drinking coffee during rest time.

However, a little dull expression can be seen from everyone's face.

The latest research by Chinese people and Liu Feng's paper, as if it was a bolt from the blue, shattered their pride.

I thought that as a gathering place for elites around the world, they could take the controlled nuclear fusion cause at the forefront of the world.

Even the national laboratory, which is known as the world's only superpower, is the first national laboratory to conduct controlled nuclear fusion research, cannot have a greater say in this research than them.

However, this confidence was defeated by one person, yes, one person!

Without that Professor Liu, the EAST team in China would never have completed a 1,300-second record, or even a hundred seconds, which is probably a luxury!

It is no exaggeration to say that this technological breakthrough is all due to Professor Liu Feng. He defeated thousands of them, known as the most professional scientist on Earth!

The most frustrating thing is that they can't even figure out how that EAST device uses inferior ‘superconducting’ materials to do this!

Looking at the paper in hand, the faces of a group of people were filled with solemn expressions, and they were reading them devoutly as if they were reading the Bible.

Yuki Matsuda almost read the paper dozens of times, but no matter how many times it was, when he saw those dazzling data, he couldn't help but be shocked by the facts behind this paper.

The assistant Hirose Masato, who was standing next to him, took a deep breath and couldn't help but speak.

"Incredible, does Professor Liu Feng really have the power to turn decay into magic?"

Matsuda Yuki sighed and put the paper in his hand on the table: "He really has such power! If we had known that he was also engaged in controlled nuclear fusion research, he would not have agreed to impose material restrictions on China at the beginning. Now, it would probably be impossible to let him join our iTER organization."

Masato Hirose nodded.

The decision to impose a material blockade on China and refuse to provide supply of superconducting magnet coils was something that several countries agreed with. If they knew that Liu Feng had decided to engage in research in this area, they would probably not have made such hasty decisions.

After all, the energy of a master of physics is immeasurable, just like the "theory of mutual conversion of high-energy particles and strong electromagnetic fields" proposed by Liu Feng in a blink of an eye...

"Okay, it's too late to say anything now!" Matsuda Yuki shook his head, "Fortunately Professor Liu Feng is a real scholar. He has no self-taught self-taught. After learning his theory, we will definitely be able to achieve EAST results in the future, and even be stronger!"

Just as the two were talking, a knock suddenly sounded at the door, and a researcher walked in.

"Professor, Mr. Reginold asked me to inform you and come to the conference room for a meeting right away."

"Do you know what the issue is?"

"I heard that it was someone from the committee..."

The committee mentioned by the researcher is the representatives of the official iTER project teams from various countries, and is responsible for reporting the progress of the iTER project to various countries. Although it seems that there is no actual right, behind the scenes, it is the funder of the iTER project!

In short, you can't offend me. Moreover, the last 1200-second ignition test was also cancelled by these people.

Hearing the name of the committee, Professor Yuki Matsuda sighed with exhaustion, and supported his hands on the armrest of the office chair, slowly stood up. As the rotating vice chairman of the iTER project, he could fully imagine what would happen next.

"I know, I'll go there now."

Large conference room.

When Matsuda Yuki walked here from the office, he happened to see a group of people walking in from outside in a hurry, and Professor Reginold quickly stood up to meet him.

Looking at the two in front, Reginold cleared his throat and a slightly stiff smile appeared on his face.

"Mr. Abner, Mr. Humphrey, welcome two to the laboratory. What wind blows you?"

Abner and Humphrey did not laugh, but said with a blank expression: "Stop talking nonsense, are all the people attending the meeting?"

Reginold's expression stumbled slightly, and then he nodded.

In academia, whoever controls the funds is his father.

This is true in any country.

Although his mood was not very good at this moment, or even quite bad, he still had to hold all the negative emotions in his heart.

The two arrived at the rostrum, and Abner knocked on the microphone on the stage and said without hesitation: "The people above are very disappointed with you!"

"We have clearly restricted the pace of Chinese people, and even punished China for this and violated the regulations, but you can't compete with them!"

"Why did those Chinese people use our superconducting materials to make 1,000 seconds ahead of you? Why did those Chinese people use their ragged iron to make 1,300 seconds? And it was only a few months later!"

"And you, so far, haven't even achieved it in 100 seconds! Maybe my words are ugly, but I still want to ask, are you, the experts who are known as the best in the world, all of you, who are just eating a good meal?"

Reginold's eyebrows twitched violently, and his face was as dark as the bottom of the pot, but he still argued patiently.

"Yes, you're right. They're really one step ahead of us. However, it's not that we can't do 1000 seconds of ignition time, but because..."

"I'm not here to listen to you explain the reasons for the failure."

Regginod's explanation was unceremonious and Abner spoke.

"We have invested tens of billions of euros in you, and you have also painted us a big pie for decades. But the fact is that you are not only far from the result of business operations, but are even technically surpassed by a red country! Are you worthy of the tens of billions of dollars and the taxpayers? Even in order to give our parliament and our allies a reasonable explanation, you must catch up with me."

"I originally thought the above would cut your funds, but this time, I was wrong."

Abner said slowly, his tone very unhappy.

Hearing this sentence, a strange expression flashed across Yuki Matsuda's face from the audience.

"Although your stupidity has made the Chinese people take the lead in controlling nuclear fusion technology, the people above still decided to add 2 billion euros to speed up the progress of R&D..."

Although everyone present couldn't stand Abner's face, the facts were really helpless. Those politicians would never let those who use money and those who manage money come together.

Forget it, for the sake of 2 billion euros, huh? 2 billion euros!

Whether it was Reginald, Matsuda Yuki or others, they were shocked by the news!

When did the people above get so generous?

In the past, I had to worry about even a small amount of hundreds of thousands of dollars...

"This is your last chance! If you continue to lose to those Chinese in research, I think you guys who are just eating for nothing should quit your job on your own initiative!"

The two senior officials of the committee finished their words angrily, and walked out of the conference room without looking back, leaving a group of people staring at each other...

So, on a clear and gentle day, after thoroughly studying Liu Feng's "high-energy particle strong electromagnetic field mutual change constraint theory", Reginold, as the rotating chairman, stood up straight and once again proudly announced:

"We will conduct a new ignition experiment, which is expected to extend the plasma magnetic constraint time to 2,000 seconds! As the leader in the research on controlled magnetic constraint nuclear fusion in humans around the world, we will build a fusion experimental reactor that can achieve large-scale fusion reactions in the next 10 years, leading the research on controlled nuclear fusion into a practical and critical step. It is expected that in the next 20 years, our controlled nuclear fusion will be commercialized! This most brilliant monument in human history is destined to be opened by us!"

Therefore, the EU also announced to the public that it would continue to inject 2 billion euros as follow-up research and development funds for the controllable nuclear fusion project.

After hearing this news, other countries are not willing to be outdone.

A spokesperson for the Ministry of Energy of Country M directly held a press conference and announced that it would invest 5 billion US dollars on the controllable nuclear fusion business, and vowed to independently build a large-scale fusion reaction experimental reactor within the next 15 years.

Stimulated by this, others such as Ah San, Dongli, Mao Xiong and Nanbangguo have also increased their investment in experimental investment in controlled nuclear fusion, either 1 billion or hundreds of millions, which is enough.

Of course, it is even more impossible for China to fall behind. As the Minister of Science and Technology, Comrade Zhang Qin, announced in front of the media around the world that China will invest 100 billion yuan to develop domestic controlled nuclear fusion technology, and even the specific planning is planned, including 5 years of construction, 10 years of operation and development and utilization, and 2 years of deactivation. In short, it is also expected that in the next 20 years, nuclear fusion reactors will be controlled and used for commercial power generation.

For a moment, the world was in an uproar.

The media and online TV are filled with news about controlled nuclear fusion.

In the stock market, nuclear power projects were far ahead and instantly turned into red suns; while other traditional new and old energy projects such as oil, coal, wind, and solar energy fell directly into green grasslands.

For a time, many investors who invested huge amounts of money in this field were crying. Why did they fall again?

However, unlike these wools who cried bitterly in their later years, Liu Feng, who saw these messy news, laughed and laughed very happily.

Because he knew that the fish had already taken the bait one after another!

Isn’t he released the “theory of mutual conversion constraints of high-energy particles with strong electromagnetic fields” just to add a fire to the mediocre controlled nuclear fusion projects around the world?

The more other countries invest in the direction of controlled nuclear fusion, the less they will invest in antimatter engineering or other projects.

And when he got the antimatter technology out, looking back at today, those people will know that it would be great that China's so-called controllable nuclear fusion plan of RMB 100 billion will have 3 billion investments in it. At that time, I believe those guys will definitely hate themselves, haha!

While checking the modified Beijing Positive and Negative Electronic Collider with Boss Wang and others, Liu Feng was overjoyed when he recalled the phone call with the Great Elder at that time.

"My Professor Liu, weren't you optimistic about the controllable nuclear fusion project at the beginning? Why did you go to Hefei to study nuclear fusion when you put a good antimatter project?

On the phone, the elder was very amused and crying.

"Great Elder, don't worry, the antimatter side is just step by step. As for the controlled nuclear fusion side, it's just a coincidence..."

Therefore, Liu Feng explained the commonalities between antimatter engineering and controlled nuclear fusion in magnetic constraints, and then explained from beginning to end the intersection with Academician Li Zhengwu at that time, and why it helped them study controlled nuclear fusion.

"You mean, this is just a coincidence, and because of the material problem, our domestic controlled nuclear fusion business has reached a bottleneck?" asked the Great Elder in confusion.

"That's right. The ignition time of controlled nuclear fusion has been heavily dependent on the development of superconducting magnet coil materials. Even with the help of my theory, it can double the improvement in a short period of time, but the future development potential is probably exhausted. I think that in the next 50 years, even if we strive to develop in this direction, it will be difficult to see the day when controlled nuclear fusion successfully enters commercial operations." Liu Feng replied with great affirmation, "So, I do not agree with the country's large-scale investment in the direction of controlled nuclear fusion. This is a bottomless pit!"

"So, what suggestions do you have other than that?" The Great Elder nodded, as if he agreed with Liu Feng's statement.

"Great Elder, I want to ask you weakly, does our country really have the organization of War Hu? Is Professor Zhang Zhaozhong the director? I think it's time for them to play a role." Liu Feng smiled sinisterly, like a cunning fox.

The elder knew the elegance when he heard the string song, and he was even more amused and amazed: "You, you, what a war is a joke on the Internet. Well, but you are right. Since other countries have decided to invest huge amounts of money in controlled nuclear fusion, how can our country, as a world power, fall behind? Country M has invested 5 billion US dollars, right? Then we will invest 100 billion here, well, it is RMB."

On the phone, two foxes, one big and one small, showed cheerful smiles...
