"I'm sorry, it's not my intention that things will turn out like this."

"I I didn't plan to send that paper, but I didn't expect my students to move too fast. Yesterday, I contacted 585 institutes, and I have removed the papers, but it seems that they are useless. "

The phone is from academician Qiu Mingrui.

The voice was full of exhaustion and self reproach.

Lu Zhou could hear that it was not his intention that things would become like this. He did not expect that this academic debate would be regarded as a political tool by interested people.

Looking at the old man in the video window, Lu Zhou comforted him.

"I don't blame you for this. Even without your paper, what should come is still going to come."

Just as there would be a World War I without Sarajevo's gunfire, Lu Zhou didn't think that the foundation in the dark would let itself go, so he watched the second generation of controllable fusion research project go on.

Whether it is out of the old resentment a century ago or the conflict of interest in the new century, they are placed in the opposite position.

"Thank you, you can understand my difficulties..."

Looking at Lu Zhou gratefully, Qiu Mingrui hesitated whether to say it or not, but thought of the man's final warning, he finally held back.

After all, he is just a scholar. Even as an academician, he just has a more dazzling academic aura than ordinary people, which is nothing in front of the real power and the threat of death.

Let alone join in their conspiracy

"Well, I have an important meeting If you have any new clues, please call me again. "

Looking at the time on the holographic window, Lu Zhou estimated that Li Guangya, who was sitting opposite the conference table, was impatient, so he ended the topic and hung up the phone.

Although I have a premonition that the old man hasn't told me anything, in fact, it's not very important.

As early as the chaos in Guanghan City just happened, he told Xiaoai to focus on academician Qiu Mingrui. Although I don't think this riot is related to academician Qiu, I am in the center of the public opinion vortex and a chess piece full of variables. There's no reason that the people of the foundation won't contact him.

In a sense, their behavior is also a kind of disguised protection.

Without accident, the fish hiding in the dark should have begun to bite.

Is it a big fish or a small fish? He just needs to wait patiently for the result

After the phone call, Lu Zhou reached out his index finger and rowed in the air, closing the holographic window.

Seeing that he was finally finished, Li Guangya, who was sitting opposite the conference table, asked casually.

"Whose phone?"

"Academician Qiu."

"That chumingrui?"

"Yes."

As if there was no topic, the conversation between the two people stopped abruptly.

Lu Zhou and Lu Zhou stare at each other with big eyes. The expression on Li Guangya's face doesn't show anything, but he has a headache in his heart.

No matter in order to calm down the resentment of Guanghan residents or to straighten out their attitude, as the director general of Pan Asian cooperation, it is a must for him to make an appointment with East Asia power.

However, he doesn't know what to talk about after he has made an appointment.

To put it bluntly, there is nothing to talk about.

Sitting opposite him is the greatest scholar a hundred years ago. If he had the ability to question him academically, he would not be a director.

Looking at the indifferent land boat, Li Guangya sighed and said politely.

"Since so many people are against you, can't we take down the space elevator first?"

Hearing this unexpected words, Lu Zhou was slightly shocked, and did not find out the relationship for a while.

"I am calm," he said.

"Space elevator things There are so many things involved that I can only grasp 30% of them at most. However, after one hundred years of research, the time has come for two generations of controllable fusion. "

"The time is right. The problem is that you have to think about what you want," Li said with a headache. "At least in my opinion, a generation of fusion technology is enough, even for another 50 years. Can't we solve the current problem first, and then consider this optional option? "

"In my opinion, this is the problem at hand," continued the ship after a pause. "The second generation of controllable fusion technology is the premise of interstellar navigation. With only one generation of controllable fusion technology, we can only cruise in the solar system at most, but if we master the second generation of controllable fusion technology, we can even move our footprints to the world beyond a few light-years. "

Li Guangya: "no discussion?"

Lu Zhou shook his head.

"I really can't. I'll think of some other ways, such as going to the space base at Lagrange point or Mars with vast wasteland to do this experiment."Although this is not a suitable choice, it is really considered by the land boat as a standby option, but the two standby options may have problems.

Moving the reactor to the space station is the least controversial, but increases the cost of maintenance and safety risks. The infinite responsibility system and centralized autonomous management of Tiangong may be more convenient than that of Guanghan SAR. Let alone the risk is not risk. The death of two people on Mars is not news, but the fierce folk custom and the proliferation of weapons may have an unpredictable impact on the progress of the experiment.

And then there's the threat of air thieves

He didn't want to send his own researchers to such a dangerous area unless he had to.

"But if so, the cost will be very high," Li said thoughtfully, touching his chin. "I heard that the fuel of the second generation fusion is helium III and deuterium, which can only be obtained on the moon and the earth respectively."

Looking at Li Guangya, Lu Zhou suddenly didn't understand what he wanted to do.

“…… Yes, and the energy demand on Mars is not as huge as the Earth Moon system. My original idea was to build a moon based second generation fusion reactor on the moon, and then use high-power laser power transmission technology to transfer the electric energy to the relay in geosynchronous orbit, and then to the earth grid, to build a Earth Moon energy corridor. "

After a pause, the boat shrugged and went on.

"But now it seems that my thoughts may have overlooked the feelings of Guanghan residents."

Li Guangya: "you really haven't thought about it. In your eyes, there are only your research and papers. You forget that they are all living people! Of course, people will be afraid, and will be incited for fear, unless disaster happens to others! If it was me, I would not be so direct. For example, the space elevator, I would first conceive a reason that sounds like the past, and then try to arrange a mascot to let people believe in me, or believe in themselves. To build this elevator is the mission of faith and the times! "

"Like war, you have to give them the courage and honor to face death before they are afraid of death. Or you can only whip them to fart. Stock, force them to charge, but you think it's the 22nd century, is it possible! "

The boat frowned.

"Mascot?"

"Cough I mean to set up some shining examples. Why don't you always listen to the key points? " Li Guangya gave a dry cough, forced to change the topic, and continued, "let's make a deal. I will help you, and you will help me. It's good for us to help each other. We can all keep our names in history. "

Do you keep a name for history

Feeling is a distant word.

Although he was not interested in keeping his name in history, Lu Zhou took a little interest in his proposal.

"What do you want me to do for you?"

"Space elevator," Li Guangya said, "I will help you with the affairs of Guanghan City. In exchange, I hope you will be the general consultant for scientific development of Pan Asian cooperation and the chief designer of space elevator! Even if it's just a name. "

In other words, do you want to plan your own platform for the space elevator?

It took the boat about half a minute to think about it, and at last it said.

"Yes, I can, but I'm afraid I'll have to wait until the second generation of controllable fusion technology is completed before I can make it."

Asked Li Guangya with a frown.

"How long will this second generation fusion reactor come out?"

Lu Zhou thought about it and wanted to answer.

"One year, maybe two years, my intuition tells me that I'm not far from the final result."

"Let's set a deadline for one year," Li continued. "One year later, you will serve as the general consultant for scientific development of Pan Asian cooperation! Whether you participate or not, I need your name! "

"Close."

Although the old fox's cunning was seen in the guy's eyes, Lu Zhou agreed.

Whether it's for fame or for profit, the result is always good.

To speak of selfishness is that all individuals have selfishness, even themselves.

I'm afraid that children are the only ones who care about such unimportant things.

At this time, the wristwatch on Lu Zhou's left wrist suddenly flickered slightly, and a phone prompt icon popped up.

Noticing this scene, Li Guangya's face suddenly showed a silent expression and sighed.

"Why do you have so many calls?"

"Maybe it's because I'm busy I'll go out and pick it up. "

"Can't you just pick it up here as before?"

"No, because it's not convenient."

After dropping this sentence, Lu Zhou got up and walked out of the conference room.

Looking at the empty conference room, Li Guangya leaned against the chair and waited impatiently for about two minutes.

Finally, the door opened again and the boat came back from the outside.

Noticing the strange expression on Lu Zhou's face, Li Guangya's eyebrows raised a curious arc and asked casually."What is it?"

Back to the chair and sat down, Lu Zhou's expression strangely casually replied.

"Nothing, just a big fish."

What's more, it's a big fish that he didn't expect
