Chapter 298 Morning Star, a specially crafted medal!
As soon as Zheng Hai reminded him, Xu Chuan also woke up.
Yes, he is the general person in charge of the "Nuclear Energy Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion into Electric Energy" project.
Moreover, for this celebration banquet and commendation meeting, Wu Weizhao had specifically approached him and asked him to serve as the general manager for another period of time.
If he didn't go, how could the celebration banquet and commendation meeting be held?
Thinking of this, Xu Chuan also had a headache.
Although he didn't care about these honorary recognitions, he couldn't help but think about the other researchers and engineers who were working hard in Qidong on this project.
Without their dedicated work and efforts, this project would not have been completed so quickly.
A celebration banquet and commendation meeting hosted by the state will be of great help to others, whether it is future scientific research paths or promotion paths.
"When will the celebration banquet and commendation meeting be held?" Xu Chuan asked after thinking for a while.
Even if he doesn't care, it's impossible for him not to consider other people's feelings.
Even the most ordinary construction worker deserves praise. After all, this is what they deserve.
"Three days later, at the National Auditorium in Beijing." Zheng Hai quickly replied.
Xu Chuan nodded and said: "Three days, okay. I will be there on time."
Three days is definitely not enough time for him to perfect his research on plasma turbulence, but it shouldn't be a big problem to sort out his thoughts and record his inspirations and ideas.
Fortunately, he has found a way. If his thoughts were interrupted before he was still in the research state, he would really not be able to cry.
"Is there anything else?"
After agreeing to attend the commendation meeting, Xu Chuan turned around and was about to close the door and go back to continue studying plasma turbulence. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Zheng Hai still standing motionless at the door, so he stopped and asked curiously.
"Teaching professors, even if you are doing research, you should pay attention to your health."
Zheng Hai was silent for a moment and then spoke to persuade. When he returns to Beijing this time, he must give feedback to his superiors. No matter what, he must be assigned a life assistant or medical staff or something.
This life-threatening state of research is really scary.
Xu Chuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Don't worry, I know."
Three days was not long. After finishing his research work, Xu Chuan went out to find a barber shop to cut his hair and tidy up his appearance.
After all, it was a commendation meeting held in the National Auditorium. He couldn't run there in a slovenly manner, so he still had to pay attention to his image.
In mid-August, the season when sweet-scented osmanthus blooms, Xu Chuan dragged his suitcase and took the high-speed train to Beijing with Zheng Hai.
In the National Great Hall in Beijing, the commendation conference for the successful acceptance of the "Nuclear Energy Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion into Electric Energy" project kicked off with a speech by the host of the conference and warm applause.
Xu Chuan is sitting in the front row. On the left is Professor Han Jin, the project supervisor, and on the right is Qi Zhongxing, the chief engineer of the project construction.
Compared with Xu Chuan's calmness, these two people were obviously unable to control their emotions. Their faces were flushed due to excitement, and their eyes were full of hope, anticipation, satisfaction and other emotions.
As the familiar old man stepped onto the stage, thunderous applause suddenly erupted in the auditorium.
The old man first expressed his congratulations and congratulations on the perfect success of the "Nuclear Energy Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion into Electric Energy" project, and then praised and encouraged everyone's efforts and efforts, saying that they are the mainstay of the country, and he is very grateful to these people who are struggling in the scientific research front. I would like to express my high gratitude to the scientific researchers and engineers who have made outstanding contributions on the front line.
Later, the old man personally awarded six unique golden "Nuclear Power Medals" and bright red certificates to Xu Chuan, Han Jin and other scientific researchers who made outstanding contributions to the project.
Standing on the stage, Han Jin looked down at the gold-red medal on his chest that was worn by the old man himself, feeling excited and proud in his heart.
This medal is mainly made of gold and uses elements such as Tiananmen Square, five-pointed stars, and rays of light, while the medal chain uses elements such as Chinese knots and flowers.
It symbolizes the significant contributions made by the winners in the "Nuclear Energy Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion into Electric Energy" project, demonstrating the demonstration and leading role.
There is no doubt that this is the recognition and praise given to him by his motherland and his nation!
Suddenly, he thought of something and turned his head slightly to look at the young man who was standing next to him and taking a photo with him.
If it weren't for this person, he wouldn't have had the chance to stand here this year, let alone wear this medal on his chest.
Compared to his contribution to the entire project, what he did was just a drop in the bucket.
On the other side, Qi Zhongxing, the chief engineer in charge of nuclear energy project construction, was also somewhat emotional. He never thought that one day he, a construction worker, would be able to stand on this stage and receive such an award.
In addition to the six 'Nuclear Power Medals', there are also 68 advanced individual medals and five advanced group medals.
These are also to recognize the efforts and contributions made by the winners throughout the project. No matter how great the project is, someone needs to tighten the bolts. Without the efforts of these grassroots personnel, no matter how great the project is, it would not be possible to complete.
In addition to these, what Xu Chuan and everyone in the auditorium did not expect was that there was a special medal in the commendation.
"Morning Star Medal!"
This is a gold medal made of 24K pure gold, weighing 378 grams. It is equipped with a unique ribbon in five colors: gold, dark green, pure white, brilliant red and black. The main pattern of the medal consists of a five-pointed star and Tiananmen Square. , sky, light lines, stars and other elements.
Morning Star, Morning Star!
This is the meaning of this medal.
It is not only an award for Xu Chuan, but also a symbol of a new day, a symbol of morning, a symbol of hope in confusion, and a sign of leading the way; it also means that he is the beginning of the country's tomorrow and the star of hope for the future.
The unique ribbon has another unique meaning, yellow, green, white, red and black, which are the colors of the colorful stones used by Nuwa in the legend to make stones to mend the sky. Its meaning is undoubtedly taken from the legendary Nuwa to mend the sky. sky.
In fact, for nuclear energy, the ultimate flaw is undoubtedly the extremely difficult to process nuclear waste, which can pollute the earth, just like the floods in ancient times, and cause harm to the world.
Now, this biggest flaw has been made up, the development of the nuclear energy field will usher in a comprehensive leap, the energy crisis has been solved, and China will also usher in a prosperous tomorrow.
Xu Chuan's fingers lightly traced across the surface of the medal. He felt the heaviness of the medal, not only because of the weight of the medal itself, but also the heavy sense of responsibility and expectations contained in it.
The morning star, the morning star.
The design of this medal is undoubtedly unique. But, I don’t know if he can bear such responsibility
Amidst thunderous applause, the commendation meeting came to an end, and it was regarded as a fulfillment of the wish of all the scientific researchers who have devoted their blood to "Nuclear Energy Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion into Electric Energy".
For Xu Chuan, what he gained was not just two medals and certificates of honor, but also a heavy sense of responsibility and expectations.
Following the guard, he came to the small island in Beihai on the north side of Chang'an Street again.
As the general person in charge of "Nuclear Energy Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion into Electric Energy", after the project was successfully completed and accepted, it was time for him to make a report.
Of course, what's more important is that this visit was also personally invited by the old man who works here and handles state affairs.
Originally, Xu Chuan wanted to rush back after the commendation conference to continue his research on plasma turbulence. However, after the conference, the old man found him personally and invited him to come here for a chat today.
"Professor Xu is here, please take a seat."
In the hall, the old man who had been waiting here for a long time saw Xu Chuan and stood up with a smile to greet him.
Xu Chuan shook hands with the old man respectfully and sat aside.
"I heard feedback from the Science and Technology Information Center that you have been staying up late doing research lately. You should pay attention to your body. Your body is your capital. You are still young and you still have a long time in the future. You can do research slowly. Come." The old man said with concern.
Xu Chuan** said: "I've made you worry, I will pay attention to it."
The old man smiled, expressed concern for a few words, and then turned to the topic: "I would like to trouble you to come over this time. I mainly want to talk to you about some things in the field of nuclear energy, including some technologies in the project of reusing nuclear waste to generate electricity. .”
"You said it." Xu Chuan quickly replied.
The old man sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "Under your leadership, the nuclear beta radiation energy concentration and conversion project has achieved perfect success. There is no doubt that the value of this technology is huge."
"But now that the Qidong Nuclear Industrial Park project has been completed, I would like to hear your views on the subsequent development of this project, including whether this technology can be exported abroad in exchange for some of the technologies we need"
After listening to the old man's inquiry, Xu Chuan also figured out the key to coming to him today.
On the one hand, I want to ask about the future plans of the nuclear waste power station in Qidong, and want to hear his opinion. After all, he still holds the title of general manager.
On the other hand, it is asking about the feasibility of exporting this technology.
Of course, this so-called export is not the exchange of technology to foreign countries, but the feasibility of building the same nuclear waste power station abroad.
After all, nuclear fission power generation now accounts for a large proportion of the electricity supply in some countries, especially in Europe. Some countries even account for nearly half of the energy supply.
The amount of nuclear waste accumulated in these countries is much larger than that of China. How to deal with nuclear waste has been a recognized problem in the world before.
Now that they have the technology, it’s a good idea to choose and ‘help’ them if you want to maximize its use.
After all, countries that can master nuclear fission power generation more or less have some of the technologies that China needs.
If you can use this technology to exchange for some, it is indeed a very good choice.
For China, there is no need for them to come to the door. After the nuclear waste reuse power generation technology was disclosed more than two months ago, some countries came to the door and proposed various conditions to exchange or purchase this technology.
Although there are many people who are excited about it, there is still a point of concern for senior executives who understand this technology and want to use this technology to help those countries.
That is the radiation gap theory used in nuclear energy beta radiation energy concentration and conversion to electrical energy projects.
In theory, this technology can be applied to invisible coating materials, and they are already developing it.
But to be honest, the conditions offered by the countries that proposed the exchange are quite attractive, and many of them are in short supply.
Of course, they also want to ask if the person in front of them has any technology or things they want.
After all, it can be said that the nuclear waste reuse technology was accomplished by him alone. From theory to construction, the state only provided some basic things.
What they provide can basically be replaced by other developed countries. The key point lies in the person in front of you.
In addition, there is a controllable nuclear fusion project.
Compared with the first two, the last one is what Xu Chuan cares about.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "To be honest, these issues are not within my ability."
"After all, I am just a scientific researcher. It is my job to study science and technology. But after the technology is developed, how to use it to achieve maximum benefits. I believe you know better than me."
"As for the technology needed, personally I don't have anything that I need."
"But I suggest exchanging a magnetic mirror + magnetic hoop dual control technology from the Germanic country. This technology is used for controllable nuclear fusion, and we can use it in the future."
The dual control technology of magnetic mirror + magnetic hoop is a technology jointly developed by Germany and the United States. He had used it when he was studying controllable nuclear fusion at Princeton in his previous life.
But at that time, he was using superconducting materials that he had developed himself. Although superconducting materials have not yet been developed, he should make preparations.
The old man nodded when he heard this, recorded the demand and then asked: "Is there any more?"
Xu Chuan thought for a while and said: "It's okay if you can get a top-level CNC machine tool. After all, top-level CNC machine tools have many uses."
The old man shook his head slightly and said: "I'm afraid this is more difficult, but we will try our best."
Compared with the previous magnetron and magnetic mirror technologies, the latter is one of those devices that Western countries have always banned from exporting. They had talked about it before, but they were directly rejected.
CNC machine tools are known as the mother tools of industry, and their importance is self-evident.
Xu Chuan smiled and said: "You don't have to start from Germany. In fact, the one next door to us can also be used. Although it is a little worse in comparison, it is enough for us."
< br>
The old man thought for a moment, nodded and said: "You can try it."
Compared with obtaining CNC machine tools from Europe, it is indeed easier to obtain CNC machine tools from their neighbors. Although they don't like this neighbor, in comparison, it is more important to strengthen themselves.
