Chapter 427: So-called super scientific research program

The precise time measurement was completed after one hour, 13 minutes and 7 seconds. Lu Qiujian returned to the bedroom with a paralyzed Xia Xiao, lying on the bed until she slept with a smile before gently taking care of her. After finishing the quilt, he came to the computer and started working again. △ ¢

Xihe Project is undoubtedly the largest super scientific research project in China since two bombs and one star. Even if it is put on the global scale, it can be comparable to the super scientific research projects of the Manhattan Project and the Apollo Project.

The so-called super scientific research project will definitely consume a lot of capital, huge resources, and hundreds of thousands of manpower. If you count indirect investment and personnel, it will be more. It is no exaggeration to say that there is only a global scope. The United States and China have the capacity to carry out such a plan with the power of one country.

The two-bomb and one-star project was directly led by marshals of the ranks of marshals, and established a highly authoritative organization including leaders of the Presbyterian Church and the Military Commission. It integrated command power, financial power, and personnel power into one, mobilizing all forces throughout the country to conduct large-scale cooperation; The top level is coordinated by the nuclear industry, the aerospace industry and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which is mainly reflected in the close coordination and cooperation in scientific research technology; nationally, it is composed of national defense research institutions, Chinese Academy of Sciences, industrial departments, and higher institutes Universities and local research institutions, the Ministry of Metallurgy, the Ministry of Chemical Industry, the Ministry of Machinery, the Ministry of Aviation, the Ministry of Electronics and the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Petroleum, the Ministry of Geology, the Ministry of Construction and other 26 departments (institutions), 20 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions (including more than 900 Factories, scientific research institutions, colleges and universities) participated in the research battle.

The mere explosion of the first atomic bomb directly costs 2.8 billion. If the construction of the nuclear industry system and supporting expenses (such as uranium mining, etc.) are included, this number will expand to 8 billion.

What is the concept of 8 billion in 1964? The total cost of the three-year Korean War was 6.2 billion yuan, and the national defense expenditure in 1959 was 5.8 billion yuan. This cost was 30% more than the national defense expenditure for the entire year of 59; if put into the present, China ’s national defense expenditure last year was 100 million yuan. Adding three more achievements is close to RMB 400 billion!

The Manhattan Project brought together scientists and engineers from all over the world. The project used 539,000 people at its peak, with a total cost of up to 2.5 billion US dollars. If inflation is taken into account, this cost is equivalent to 22.5 billion US dollars.

Among them, the Los Alamos laboratory has more than 9,000 staff, and the Oak Ridge uranium material production plant cost 900 million US dollars. With 36,000 employees, the Hanford Ford plutonium material production plant costs more than 300 million US dollars and employs more than 17,000 people.

Among the scientists involved in the Manhattan project, there are many Nobel Prize winners, such as Fermi, Feynman, Yuri, Lawrence, Compton, etc., while in Germany that competes with the Americans, Bonn, Frank, Pauli, etc. The award winners have left, more than 150 highly qualified physicists engaged in basic research have been deported, and more than 400,000 highly educated Jews have fled; Hitler stubbornly believes that Germany can persist for a hundred years without physics and chemistry. However, he did not persist for ten years; the impact of scientists on the country is evident.

The Apollo project lasted about 11 years and cost US $ 25.5 billion. At the peak of the project, there were 20,000 companies, more than 200 universities and more than 80 scientific research institutions participating in the project, with a total number of more than 300,000 people.

Now, the Xihe plan led by Lu Qiujian will cost hundreds of billions. It can be expected that for a long period of time, the state will spend at least tens of billions every year to support this work. The total expenditure on scientific input is comparable. It should be understood that last year, China ’s fiscal expenditure on science and technology was only 48.3 billion yuan.

But this cost cannot be used for the research of controllable fusion, because Xihe plans to declare space exploration research. In any case, there is still work to be done in this regard.

Fortunately, the basic research in these two fields also has many things in common, such as supercomputer research, material science research, laser technology research, etc. The breakthroughs in these basic fields will have a full range of impact, aerospace Technology and controlled nuclear fusion research will benefit at the same time; this also provides a lot of convenience for China to disguise the true purpose of Xi and the plan.

Similarly, such a large-scale project needs perfect industrial support and an all-round talent reserve. Hua Guo is currently in the high-end field, whether it is industrial technology or talent reserve, and the rice country has a big gap, but it can basically meet the needs of Lu Qiujian.

The scarcity of high-end talents is in some ways a good thing for Lu Qiujian, if he went to Rice. Certainly will not receive such attention, I want to take charge of the entire project as I am afraid it will take longer and face greater resistance.

Lu Qiujian reviewed the list of cooperating units on his computer. He listed more than three hundred universities, nearly two hundred research institutes, and thousands of enterprises for him. Their areas of expertise are more or less manageable. Nuclear fusion has something to do with it ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ For these cooperative units, Lu Qiujian does not need to tell them the real purpose of Xi and the plan, but only needs to send them research tasks or product production tasks according to the planned needs. Their work may be to study a certain screw on a controllable nuclear fusion restraint device, or perhaps to develop a special material for experiments.

This can keep the secret to a certain extent. The core research plan and progress are only known to the core team and the Presbyterian Association led by him.

Of course, each job will not only be distributed to a certain cooperative unit. Usually, it will be distributed to several relevant units with the highest technical level in the country at the same time. Whoever comes up with the right results first and who harvests the biggest fruits, This is similar to commercial bidding.

This specific split research plan and the assignment of research tasks are completed by the relevant staff of the project's core team, but Lu Qiujian also needs to have an understanding of the strength of these cooperative units in order to better carry out overall management.

Quickly completed the electronic file in units of g. Lu Qiujian has imprinted the information of these cooperative units in his mind; but these are only the data on paper! Some important cooperative units must also go and see for themselves, Lu Qiujian thought about rubbing his temples.

But this is far from the biggest difficulty he is facing. Even the most important ignition and restraint problems of controlled nuclear fusion cannot be regarded as the most headaches for him. What he is most worried about now is what the opposition forces within China will take. Means to prevent him from successfully completing the plan. (To be continued.)
