Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Three questions?

As Lu Zhou looked at this aggressive old man, he was slightly stunned, but he soon said with a smile, “It’s okay, just ask if you don’t understand, I don’t mind.”

After hearing the phrase “ask if you don’t understand”, Qiu Mingrui almost choked on his own saliva. His momentum even became a bit weak. Even Mayor Ye standing next to him couldn’t help but laugh.

But when Mayor Ye realized that Lu Zhou had said the same to him just now, he suddenly coughed a little awkwardly and put away the smile on his face.

This old popsicle has a sour mouth!

Qiu Mingrui looked at Lu Zhou. He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and continued with a serious expression.

“You are Academician Lu and also the chairman of East Asia Energy. You have to know that your every move determines not only the future of East Asia Energy but also the future of 100,000 lunar residents and even the Pan-Asian Cooperation! I hope you will not treat this as a game.”

Lu Zhou said with a faint smile, “A game? It’s not for you or me to evaluate. Ask if you have any questions.”

“First! I have studied your A1 magnetic field generator. The high-intensity magnetic field of more than 10,000 Tesla is equivalent to a neutron star! Forget about how this can be achieved in engineering. If you really create this thing on the moon, not only will it have an unpredictable effect on the earth’s magnetic environment, but it will also directly threaten the lives of 100,000 lunar residents!”

The face of Academician Qiu flushed red. He couldn’t wait to take off the helmet of the spacesuit and discuss face to face with Lu Zhou.

Maybe Mayor Ye was worried that his blood pressure was too high. After seeing his excitement, Mayor Ye hurriedly stood up and said.

“Um… Whether it will interfere with the earth’s magnetic field is still to be discussed. If we just use a man-made magnetic field, I think it will not threaten the safety of the residents in Guanghan City? The magnetic field of ILHCRC is not weak, and it can even interfere with the outside cosmic rays. But there hasn’t been any impact on human health in the past century.”

To be honest, Ye He still hoped that East Asia Energy could invest in this second-generation fusion project in Guanghan City. Asking experts to check the project first was to be responsible to the one hundred thousand residents, and it was also to give him a way out if something went wrong.

After listening to what Academician Lu said earlier, he believed that there would be no problems to hand this matter to East Asia Energy. This second-generation controllable fusion reactor had a success probability of at least 80%.

However, even though he had been persuaded himself, the expert he invited stood up and fought against the idea.

Ye He was dumbfounded.

“That’s because its magnitude is not enough. Even in the accelerator tube, it is only at a level of 100 Tesla!”

Academician Qiu continued to speak with a voice of iron and steel.

“This is 10,000 Tesla. Do you know what the concept of this thing is? It’s also a high-frequency magnetic field. Not to mention its power as an EMP weapon. If it is used on people, it can directly tear human cells to pieces!”

The faces of the people around him changed instantly.

In particular, Mayor Ye was taken aback for a moment. The expression on his face quickly became serious.

“What he said… Is it true, Academician Lu.?”

“What you want to talk about is the diamagnetic properties of cells. Although it is true, your question is very strange…”

Lu Zhou looked at Academician Qiu, who thought he had the upper hand, with a weird look. Lu Zhou continued, “We all know that a person who jumps from a 100-meter-tall building will definitely die, so the height of the building should be limited below the height of death? It is reasonable to say that the magnetic field of 10,000 Tesla will only appear in the center of the reactor. As long as you are not standing in the reactor, you will not feel the overflowing magnetic field.”

“The key is that this level of a magnetic field is not controllable at all!” Academician Qiu continued aggressively, “How do you ensure that all magnetic fields are confined inside the reactor? Even if only 1T of magnetic field overflows, it will cause damage to the electronic facilities around the reactor, a devastating blow!”

Lu Zhou: “This is not a difficult thing to solve. We will set up a Faraday cage on the periphery of the reactor to confine the magnetic field to a small area, which is completely feasible in design.”

“As for the reactor…” At this point, Lu Zhou paused for a moment and said with a faint smile, “Whether it is a human or a robot, even if there is no magnetic field, anyone would evaporate when standing inside.”

The temperature of billions of degrees was hundreds of times higher than the temperature in the center of the sun!

Lu Zhou really couldn’t think of any way for a person to be killed by the high-speed changing magnetic field before being vaporized by the high-temperature plasma.

After hearing this explanation, the expressions of the people standing around were obviously relieved.

Especially Mayor Ye. Although he still had some worries, he felt that what Lu Zhou said made sense. After he heard the views of Academician Qiu from the beginning to the end, the crux of the problem seemed to be the possible magnetic field overflow. However, from the perspective of a regulator, this was completely controllable.

Qiu Mingrui opened his mouth, trying to say something, but he couldn’t say a word.

He did not agree with Lu Zhou. From an engineering point of view, this chaotic design was not only full of hidden dangers, but it also did not meet his expectations for the second-generation controllable fusion reactor electromagnet design.

In fact, he had been studying this problem for half of his life and had been searching for the “perfect container” that could constrain billions of degrees of plasma. However, now an old antique who woke up a hundred years ago told him that it took him less than half a month. He couldn’t accept it!

However, just as he was about to speak, Lu Zhou suddenly cast his sights on the azure blue planet hanging in space, and a slight nostalgic expression on his face.

“You remind me of an old person, although you are not at all like him.”

Qiu Mingrui was taken aback for a while. Determined that this was directed towards himself, he spoke.

“… Who?”

“Yuan Huanmin, you don’t know him.”

Yuan Huanmin?

Qiu Mingrui frowned. He searched every corner of his memory, but he had no impression of the name.

“Not everyone has the opportunity to leave their name in history. But even if you guys have forgotten him, I still remember him.”

Lu Zhou smiled and continued in a nostalgic tone, “Although the old man was my number one hater, at least he opposed me with a firm academic standpoint. Arguing with him was not without benefit, at least I also learned something.”

Scholars were not saints.

Although the old gentleman was a scholar and was a bit arrogant, he had good intentions, and the choice he made at the end really proved Lu Zhou right.

Having said that, Lu Zhou looked at Academician Qiu Mingrui.

“Actually, it’s okay to hate me. I’m not an easy person to get along with. It doesn’t matter if you criticize my academic views. If you are really confused, I’m happy to communicate with you. However, so far, what I have seen is just unreasonable trouble.

“After listening to you for so long, I haven’t heard what you are agreeing with, nor the reasons for your agreement, let alone any constructive opinions. It seems that you are not trying to solve the problem, but you are purely opposing. Do you think this is appropriate?”

Qiu Mingrui went red for a while before forcibly squeezing a sentence from his mouth.

“I-I’m afraid you will waste social resources! And you will leave such a big danger on the moon!”

Lu Zhou gently smiled.

“I am not afraid of failure, why are you afraid for me?

“If I lose, I can also put up a sign on this road to tell latecomers to avoid this path. And even if you succeed in persuading me or Mayor Ye today, you will only succeed today. The experiment will happen in the future eventually.”

The expression on Qiu Mingrui’s face gradually turned into shame.

Lu Zhou said softly, “The essence of science is trial and error.

“Those who dare not make mistakes…

“Are not worthy of being a scholar at all!”
