"Do you want cutting-edge scientific research projects? I'm everywhere here. Just picking up a copy can make scientists spend their entire lives of energy and time." Qian Zhongtai waved his hand casually and said, "In recent years, the country's support has been greatly improved, and the military has also provided great convenience. The scientific research work has gone smoothly and there are more fantastic ideas. However, most of the projects were proposed by young people, and old men like us should retire."

"young people?"

"It's like you." Qian Zhongtai glanced at Lu Wen and said with a smile, "If you don't go back to the General Staff, you will definitely have a lot of achievements and may be able to take over my shift."

"Professor Qian, you respect me so much."

"Xiao Lu, I know the best of your ability. To be honest, I called Mr. Huang several times and hoped that you could come back to work, but they were all rejected."

"Why don't I know?"

Qian Zhongtai smiled and said, "Mr. Huang definitely didn't tell you, and you won't come back."

Lu Wen was a little embarrassed because Qian Zhongtai was right and she couldn't come back to work. What if she returned to the experimental center, what should she do if her two children?

"Professor Qian, in a few years, Lu Wen will be free." Mu Haoyang was afraid that Qian Zhongtai would get out of the way, so he quickly pulled the topic back. "I am not a scientist and don't have much understanding of your research. I just want to know which cutting-edge projects have a superb significance."

“Only two.”

Mu Haoyang frowned and waited for Qian Zhongtai to continue talking.

"One is a controlled nuclear fusion reactor with commercial uses, and the other is quantum communication technology."

"this……"

"The main technical problems of the former have been solved. The model we have built has passed simulation tests and is preparing to build the first scientific research reactor within five years. If everything goes well, it will meet the commercial application standards in ten years." Qian Zhongtai smiled and said, "Of course, there is another key question, that is, who is willing to invest. The progress will definitely not be fast with the funds provided by the state alone. If commercial investment can be obtained, the prospects will be very bright. Maybe we can produce results within eight years and completely solve the energy problem."

"Where is the research in related fields?" Lu Wen asked.

"With application prospects, are you afraid that other research will not be able to keep up?" Qian Zhongtai paused for a moment and said, "I am very optimistic about this project, but I have never found a company that I am willing to invest in, and there is no statement from above, which makes it difficult for us to come forward to attract sponsorship."

"You mean, it will take eight years to have practical abilities at the earliest?" Mu Haoyang quickly brought the topic back.

"It's almost the same, maybe ten years."

“Where is military applications?”

"Before the breakthrough in research in related fields, the prospects for military applications are not optimistic. In addition, the initial controlled fusion nuclear reactor must be very huge, and miniaturization will take a lot of time. Most importantly, the military's existing equipment does not have the ability to improve. According to my estimate, the military will only consider military uses after the commercial operation of the controllable fusion nuclear reactor."

"So, that's what happened ten years later."

"If it is used in the navy, it may be twenty years later."

Mu Haoyang sighed and said, "Where is quantum communication?"

"It's even more distant. We are now mainly engaged in photon communication, and it is a military scientific research project. Combined with directional communication technology, it can solve most problems, especially confidentiality issues. To put it bluntly, photon communication technology cannot be intercepted or deciphered. But in terms of application scope, photon communication technology is still a bit far from the requirements of the military. Next, we are preparing to develop neutrino communication technology."

“Then it’s quantum communication technology?”

Qian Zhongtai was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Quantum communication technology has no direct relationship with 'communication', and is mainly used on computers."

Mu Haoyang smiled, feeling that he had too little knowledge.

"If you are optimistic, you may have a breakthrough in 20 years, but commercial applications will have to wait until twenty years later."

"Is there any cutting-edge technology that can meet the application standards within ten years?" Mu Haoyang asked directly.

"Technology that can be realized in ten years cannot be called cutting-edge technology."

"Professor Qian," Lu Wen hurriedly said, "Haoyang means that the military needs technology that can be used, and it is best to change the way of war."

Qian Zhongtai frowned and began to think.

Lu Wen glanced at Mu Haoyang and told him to be calm.

After thinking for a while, Qian Zhongtai said: "As far as I know, there are two technologies that are powerful."

"What?" Mu Haoyang was a little impatient.

"One is the sun model I made."

"this……"

"The mathematical model has been calculatingly verified, but there has been no chance to conduct experiments."

"How to experiment?"

"Shot a nuclear warhead with a large enough equivalent to the sun, and..."

"Wait, aren't you crazy to do this?"

Qian Zhongtai smiled and said, "The sun itself is a huge fusion reactor, burning hundreds or thousands of tons of hydrogen every second. Our nuclear warhead is only 200 million tons at the maximum, and the impact is minimal, which is equivalent to dropping a drop of water into the Pacific Ocean. What we need to do is measure some data and then determine whether the internal structure of the sun is exactly the same as what I predict."

"Then what?"

"If so, then we can intervene in the sunspot activities."

Mu Haoyang was startled and said, "What do you mean is that it can trigger a dark spot explosion when we need it and create a solar storm artificially?"

"It's almost the same, but not exactly that, I mean..."

"Professor Qian, you are definitely a genius." Mu Haoyang became excited, "Besides doing testing, what else do you need to do to create a sunspot explosion?"

"A bigger bomb, and accurate time to drop."

"There are bombs that are larger than hydrogen bombs with an equivalent capacity of 200 million tons?"

Qian Zhongtai smiled and said, "Of course there are, but it is not the nuclear weapons we know, but a nuclear weapons composed of positive and antimatters."

"this……"

"If one kilogram of antimatter can be made, a nuclear warhead with an equivalent of 20 billion tons can be created to reach the level of causing sunspot explosions."

"Must use an antimatter bomb?"

Qian Zhongtai nodded and said, "If antimatter bombs are not used, the intensity of the blackspot activity can only be increased in the years when the blackspot activity is high. On average, every eleven years, only one year is the high-incidence year, and the duration is about one month, and it does not have much military significance."

Mu Haoyang nodded and said, "What should we do for this?"

"Build a larger high-energy physics experimental center, or an accelerator with higher energy levels, and provide enough electricity. If everything goes well, after the accelerator starts to operate, we can produce enough antimatter within five years." Qian Zhongtai paused for a moment and said, "There is basically no difficulty in technology, mainly investment, and no big thing can be done without money."

“How much does it cost?”

"The accelerator requires at least one trillion yuan, and it requires a large enough site. In addition, it requires about 100 billion yuan of electricity every year, and the electricity price this year shall prevail. If a nuclear power plant is built for this purpose, an additional 150 billion yuan will be invested."

Now, Mu Haoyang breathed a sigh of relief, because compared with Teng Yaohui's military expansion plan, this investment was nothing.

"Professor Qian, what is the second sexual technology you are talking about?" Lu Wen took the initiative to bring up a new topic.

"Electromagnetic weapons, to be precise, are high-energy electromagnetic guns, but now the coil electromagnetic guns are more feasible, rather than the orbital electromagnetic guns developed by the military."

“Is it feasible?”

"The key is capital investment. As long as the funds are in place, a breakthrough will definitely be made within five years, and practical capabilities will be available within seven years at the latest."

"How much significance does it mean?" Mu Haoyang asked.

"I'm not a soldier, so it's hard to say. However, from the perspective of a scientific researcher, I think high-energy electromagnetic guns will eliminate all the artillery and rocket launchers now. Maybe one day in the future, most combat aircraft will be eliminated." Qian Zhongtai paused for a moment and said to Mu Haoyang, "Are you a lieutenant general?"

Mu Haoyang nodded, do you still need to ask?

"In this case, you should support this project more, because the first thing you benefit is the navy." Qian Zhongtai smiled and said, "If the high-energy electromagnetic gun is successful, it will definitely only be installed on large warships. Miniaturization is a future matter, and the army and the air force will not be used for the time being."

“How much money is needed?”

"It's tens of billions, from the perspective of efficiency and fee ratio, this is the most worth investing in military project."

Mu Haoyang nodded, expressing his agreement with Qian Zhongtai's point of view. It would be too cost-effective if he could use tens of billions to trigger a tactical battle.

You should know that if you have tens of billions of dollars, you can only build one or two "Kunlun Mountain"-class aircraft carriers.

Lu Wen glanced at Mu Haoyang and said, "If it succeeds, it will definitely be a technical opportunity and will definitely completely change the naval tactics."

"It's not thorough, but it's very shocking, and it will definitely change the basic appearance of naval warfare."

"How is the Navy intends to invest?"

Mu Haoyang smiled and said, "I can't make the decision, but I will mention this matter to Mr. Huang. If you have the chance, you will have to have a good talk with Lao Teng."

"It's better to do a computer simulation exercise."

Mu Haoyang nodded to show that he understood Lu Wen's meaning.

"You two, can you let me say something?" Qian Zhongtai stopped doing it.

"Professor Qian, look at us..."

"We must strongly support what the Navy wants to do, but I think the most worthy of investment is not the projects I mentioned earlier."

"What is that?"

"Are you going back today?" Qian Zhongtai took a turn.

Mu Haoyang glanced at Lu Wen. If it was really necessary, he would be willing to stay for one night.

"It depends on the situation. If necessary, we will go back tomorrow." Lu Wen was very cunning, so she let Qian Zhongtai show her trump card.

"You will never regret staying." Qian Zhongtai was also very cunning, "I will arrange a live demonstration for you tomorrow morning. After watching it, you will know if it is necessary to spend money on this project. At that time, I will introduce you to a colleague. His age is about the same as you two, so you will definitely be able to talk about the same place."...
