Our great nation of China traverses the multiverse.

In a small study, Fang Jing sat on the sofa, behaving as obediently as a student.

Wait, no, he's a student now.

Beside him, an elderly professor wearing glasses was slowly explaining to him the knowledge about controlled nuclear fusion.

"Just remember the specific theories and core conditions. The Xishan base has excellent experimental conditions. For the rest, just go straight to practice!"

"Empty talk of theory won't do. I'll have Elder Zhu arrange for you to go to the laboratory up there!"

This old scholar is a proponent of practical work.

After explaining the core theory of controlled nuclear fusion to Fang Jing, I pulled him up to do an experiment.

"Cough cough."

Just then, a coughing sound came from the open doorway next to them.

"Mr. Zhu, when did you arrive?"

The two men's eyes lit up when they saw Old Zhu.

"We just arrived. Come with me quickly, we have good news."

From the moment Zhu Lao began talking to Zhou Zhezhi, his smile never stopped.

He led Fang Jing and Professor Na Qian into the elevator and into the ground-level laboratory.

At this moment, in the laboratory, Jiang Xu sat on the ground as if he were in a daze, using instruments to examine several materials at hand.

"Awesome! This thing, with its different distribution, can actually withstand neutron radiation perfectly!"

"Cough cough!"

Hearing that Jiang Xu was about to start talking to himself, Old Zhu coughed twice, indicating that someone had arrived.

"Oh, Mr. Zhu, you've arrived!"

Hearing the cough, Jiang Xu quickly looked up and saw it was Old Zhu. He immediately jumped up excitedly, walked to his side, and gestured wildly as he said:

"The materials and plans they provided have already been tested!"

"This material uses an unprecedented process, which is more than enough to solve the problem of neutron irradiation."

"As for solutions to turbulence, we are still verifying them, but if the verification is successful, we can directly begin building a controlled nuclear fusion experimental reactor!"

"This...this is absolutely incredible!"

Jiang Xu's eyes were practically overflowing with excitement.

He looked at Old Zhu and Fang Jing, his fists clenched so tightly they looked like they were about to take off.

That night, Zhu Lao brought him into Project 237. He learned everything about Project 237 and was willing to work in anonymity within the project after completing the controlled nuclear fusion technology.

And the result did not disappoint him.

All the problems with controlled nuclear fusion were solved at this moment!

To him, it was like a dream!

Next…

It seems like we can start building controlled nuclear fusion equipment right away?

That's too easy.

It's like they've been given a cheat code.

Jiang Xu thought of the world of The Wandering Earth.

The corners of his mouth twitched.

Damn it, he's cheating!

Chapter 82 How to lose when flying dragon rides on the face?

Throughout May, fueled by the United States' instigation...

this universe.

The topics of controlled nuclear fusion and ITER are becoming increasingly popular.

Under the overwhelming media coverage.

There's a strong sense that whoever first achieves controlled nuclear fusion technology will be the new light of humanity.

The Western world has shamelessly launched a campaign.

The slogan was: "Only savages would win by force; modern civilization must compete through technology!"

This is an attempt to firmly grasp technological hegemony in their own hands.

Amidst this overwhelming propaganda, even some Chinese netizens who were initially unperturbed are now starting to panic.

People always follow the crowd.

When everyone was saying that China's controlled nuclear fusion technology was lagging behind and was doomed.

Even if you don't believe it, you should still be a little nervous.

Online, some people are worried and have started asking around.

"@Plasma Experiment Center, now that we've withdrawn from ITER, shouldn't we have our own controlled nuclear fusion calculations?"

"Yes, yes, even if we're not the first, we can't fall too far behind!"

"Damn it, those mixed-race dogs are barking again!"

"We should have our own plan, right? After all, we already have such a big advantage, so the higher-ups should have their own arrangements, right?"

"Urgent! Is there any announcement? I'm getting so annoyed watching the US hype up ITER every day!"

"Ahhh, where's our ESAT? Come to our rescue!"

"..."

This time, due to the overwhelming publicity, it wasn't just the general public who were panicking.

Even the nuclear physicists at the Institute of Plasma Physics were starting to panic.

They're building up momentum!

The situation is escalating rapidly; how should we respond?

The key issue is that the troublesome part of the other side's publicity stunt is what happens if they don't respond.

Domestic hot money will flow to the West.

That's what they earn.

Hot money is enough for the West to recover its losses!

"No, Director, how should we respond?"

Upon seeing the message, the scholars at the Plasma Physics Institute sensed ill intent and immediately rushed to the director's office.

However, he just rushed in anxiously.

But there he saw the director, sitting leisurely in his office, browsing his computer with a smile on his face.

Curious, I went closer to take a look.

"hiss--"

The computer screen was playing the overwhelming propaganda from the West!

The director showed no sign of tension, and scholars familiar with him even noticed the mockery in his eyes.

"?"

What's wrong with the director? He doesn't seem nervous at all.

He gets extremely nervous whenever there's any international turmoil.

Why the sudden change of heart today?!

"Hehe, Xiao Li, you must have seen the news too."

Seeing the confusion in his subordinate's eyes, the director took a small sip from the silver thermos beside him and grinned:

"We don't need to worry about this; the higher-ups have made arrangements."

"Furen and his ilk think they can defeat us? Wishful thinking!"

"Chief, do you have...some inside information?"

Since Jiang Xu mysteriously disappeared after returning to China, people at the research institute have speculated that China is secretly plotting something big.

Now, seeing the director so fearless in the face of a menacing enemy...

He must know the inside story!

A light of truth called curiosity shone from his eyes.

The scholar was filled with curiosity!

"Alright, Xiao Li, you'll find out soon enough."
