Into Unscientific Chapter 654

 September 19th.

I heard the date reported by Zhu Guangya.

　A hint of obvious astonishment and surprise appeared on the faces of many of the big guys at the scene.

 Time of nuclear explosion.

to be honest.

These four words have actually been a topic since the establishment of the 221 Base. Everyone has actually discussed this matter to some extent. After all, this is the final date to test everyone's results.

However, there has never been a breakthrough in the theory related to nuclear weapons in the early days, and the explosion of the atomic bomb was not mentioned at all, so this relatively illusory topic was only occasionally mentioned.

 But after the atomic bomb theory was nearly completed.

This topic has gradually become a topic of conversation, or expectation, for many people after dinner.

 After eating and drinking, everyone would often sit on the lawn and count the stars in the sky, and would start the conversation with "Hey, when do you think our atomic bomb will explode?"

 In the "grapevine" widely circulated throughout the base.

 The time of the nuclear explosion should be June 20, one or two years later.

 Because this day was the date when the bear experts evacuated China, the original code name of the atomic bomb project was 596 to remember the humiliation of this day.

  Almost no one from top to bottom at the base will forget this day, and the atomic bomb was nicknamed the "fighting bomb" for this reason.

 In addition, some people think that it may be September 30th or October 1st of a certain year, as a way to present gifts to the people of the country on National Day.

The rest is the New Year's Eve or the birthday of a great person, which are basically all for good meaning or luck.

 However, what I didn't expect was that

 The organization actually set this date on September 19th?

But very quickly.

 The astonishment on the faces of these scholars at the scene was gradually replaced by enlightenment, and the light in their eyes became brighter and brighter.

 See this situation.

Lao Guo on the side couldn't help but poked Xu Yun with his elbow, and asked curiously:

“Xiao Xu, was this date proposed by you?”

Xu Yun touched his chin and said honestly:

“Well, it's not my suggestion, it's just a casual mention. The specific decision-making power is still issued by the capital.”

“After all, September 19th is approaching September 18th, and its commemorative significance cannot be ignored.”

"Where we fell, we should stand up - September 18th is obviously a very typical time, and people all over the country remember it."

As Xu Yun said.

 In the future life after he traveled through time.

If you mention Yiwu, many people may only think of the year 1840. As for the specific date and the subsequent signing time of the Shimonoseki-Jinling Treaty, many people actually cannot remember it without Baidu.

  But it is different from a crow.

As long as you are a Chinese person who accepts normal information, you will never forget September 18th.

 It was the most tragic day of humiliation in modern Chinese history. After that day, the three eastern provinces fell rapidly, igniting the 14-year war of aggression against China.

From then on, the beautiful rivers and mountains fell step by step, and the people were displaced.

  This is a scar carved on the heart of the Chinese nation, a pain that can never be forgotten.

According to Xu Yun's original idea, the time of the nuclear explosion could be directly selected on September 18th.

 Thirty years ago, the Japanese invaded the country. Thirty years later, we used nuclear explosions to prove that we are still standing. This is a meaningful thing.

but

Later, Xu Yun thought of another question:

September 18th is the day of national mourning and national humiliation for China. It is also the day of suffering for our compatriots in the Northeast.

If the day of the nuclear explosion overlaps with this day, how should we commemorate this day many years later?

celebrate?

 This is obviously inappropriate.

 Not celebrating?

Then this is too much of a waste of the significance of the atomic bombing - this is a key dividing point in China's modern history!

As he was thinking about it, another sentence he had heard appeared in Xu Yun's mind:

　　【If the world is destroyed today, then we will live until tomorrow】

So

 Xu Yun then thought of September 19th.

 On that September 18th thirty years ago.

Perhaps with the idea that "there will be no more China after today," the Japanese invaders strode into the territory of Northeast China in an attempt to completely destroy China.

 What Xu Yun wanted them to see was

Thirty years later "tomorrow", the entire Chinese nation will still be tenaciously alive, and the so-called destruction is even more wishful thinking!

The tall launcher of the atomic bomb is like a middle finger, sending a kind greeting to the neon lights from a distance:

【That's it】?

Of course.

Xu Yun originally did not expect the capital to fully understand his thoughts. After all, many of his emotions must be supported by various events in later generations before they can be understood.

 But unexpectedly, the organization finally accepted his opinion and set the time of the nuclear explosion on September 19th next year.

  Dash, the nuclear explosion time of an atom.

To be honest, even Xu Yun and the capital don't know whether a hydrogen bomb can be successfully developed.

Therefore, the capital's instructions to Zhu Guangya this time are that all candidates for the development of atomic bombs must be carefully implemented, while tasks for hydrogen bombs should be allocated as appropriate while ensuring sufficient production allocation for the former.

Zhu Guangya then looked around the scene and continued to say to Wang Hai, who had just stood up to question:

“Comrade Wang Hai, do you understand the organizational arrangements now?”

Wang Hai, who had just recovered his senses not long ago, immediately puffed up his chest when he heard this:

“Understood! Director Zhu, please assign tasks!”

"On behalf of all the members of our 421 group, I would like to say that no matter how difficult the production task is, we can ensure it is completed!"

Looking at Wang Hai who was as if he was beaten to death, Zhu Guangya smiled and shook his head at him:

“Comrade Wang Hai, I appreciate your awareness, but hydrogen bomb research and development is not something that can be done with just a few words.”

“We only have so many materials and equipment in our base. The first thing we need to do now is to determine the resources needed by the atomic bomb production team, and then discuss the possibility of producing hydrogen bomb components. You should understand this, right?”

Wang Hai's originally excited expression froze when he heard this, but in the end he nodded in agreement.

 Zhu Guangya's statement is indeed very realistic.

 At present, Base 221 does not have many production equipment, and some of them may only have one or two high-precision instruments.

In this case, we must first calculate the resources needed by the atomic bomb production team, and then discuss the production of hydrogen bombs based on the remaining equipment.

 If there is a lot of equipment left, there may be opportunities for simultaneous development of hydrogen bombs.

 But if there is little equipment left, the hydrogen bomb can only produce some parts first, and the detonation time will also need to be postponed.     After Wang Hai sat down.

Zhu Guangya then walked to the side where the atomic bomb structure diagram was hanging, carefully put the structure diagram away, and pulled up a new blackboard.

Then he picked up the chalk and wrote the words "Ignition Neutron Source" on the blackboard. At the same time, he looked at Wang Fangding:

“Comrade Fang Ding, as usual, let's start from your side.”

“Please report first how many manpower and equipment your R&D team needs, and Comrade Zhang He will simultaneously enter them into the equipment library.”

 Zhu Guangya finished speaking.

A middle-aged woman with a ponytail on his left also nodded towards Wang Fangding.

  She is the Zhang He that Zhu Guangya mentioned, a woman with the same name as a general quality inspector in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". She is currently responsible for the dispatch of base equipment.

Hearing this, Wang Fangding nodded and saluted Zhang He, and then began to think seriously:

“In terms of personnel, we have enough people. Our original 9501 project team has a total of nearly twenty people, which is just enough to seamlessly connect the research and development of neutron sources.”

“Oh, by the way, we can select an expert on rays. This aspect is indeed the weak point of our team.”

 “Are you an expert in rays?”

Zhu Guangya touched his chin after hearing this:

“Comrade Fang Ding, how about Comrade Liu Zixu, who is currently in charge of tandem accelerator ray calibration?”

Liu Zixu, whom Zhu Guangya mentioned, is 36 years old. He graduated from Jinmen and studied under Hu Gangfu, one of the founders of modern physics in China. His majors and abilities meet Wang Fangding's requirements.

Wang Fangding had dealt with Liu Zixu before and knew this comrade fairly well, so he immediately agreed to Zhu Guangya's arrangement:

"no problem."

Zhu Guangya wrote Liu Zixu's name on the blackboard and continued to ask:

 “What about the equipment?”

 “Equipment”

Wang Fangding actually had the idea of ​​under-reporting some equipment in a short period of time, but considering the importance of the atomic bomb, he decided not to be "frugal" anymore:

“Director Zhu, to tell you the truth, the gap in our equipment is quite large.”

“The first is the helium mass spectrometer leak detector. Although this thing is placed in the laboratory of our project team, it is actually used by four groups.”

“To develop atomic bomb components today, we must use this equipment for at least eight hours a day.”

“In addition, the uranium sample target must also be sufficient, otherwise we cannot analyze the bombardment effect of the neutron source—at least 20 grams per month.”

“There are also some anti-radiation liquid medicines – although everyone has already written a suicide note, it would be nice if it could allow the comrades to live for two more years.”

 Hearing Wang Fangding's last words.

Xu Yun couldn't help but look at Lao Guo and asked:

“Guo Gong, what is the suicide note that Comrade Fang Ding is talking about?”

Lao Guo turned to look at him and explained in a low voice:

“Refining and enriching uranium is reflective and dangerous, so comrades involved in projects such as radiation and explosives will seek their opinions in advance.”

“If they are not willing to bear this risk, the organization will assign them to be responsible for other research. If they are willing, they will write a suicide note. To put it bluntly, it is actually a suicide note.”

“This kind of suicide letter is divided into two parts. One part is for family members, such as wife, children, parents, etc.”

“The other one usually records one's financial situation, and can usually be updated every three months. It will record how much money a certain comrade has lent to oneself, or how much money one has lent.”

“You know Comrade Gao Xiao from the Sixth Branch Factory's Detonation Experimental Site, right? He's from Shanghai, he likes to be careful with his calculations, and he even clearly remembers who owes him a few cigarettes in the letter.”

Lao Guo's words were very casual, but Xu Yun sounded inexplicably uncomfortable.

 As Lao Guo said.

 The development process of nuclear weapons is full of hazards.

Although with the assistance of Xu Yun, manpower is no longer required to collect data at the detonation test site, there are still great risks in the production process of enriching uranium.

 In the original history.

Many employees of Factory 504 were exposed to radiation due to a long-term lack of adequate conditions. Although there were no problems at the time, they developed various physical problems in their later years.

 Although the state has compensated these workers and their descendants, and they all wrote suicide notes at the beginning, at least in Xu Yun's view, these are not enough to make up for their efforts.

Even due to confidentiality issues, some of them cannot be revealed until later generations.

For example, there was a uranium enrichment engineer named Yu Bingcheng at Plant 504. He and his wife died two years later because they were contaminated with radioactive materials.

Later, Yu Bingcheng's son gave birth to a granddaughter for him, and he received long-term financial subsidies. However, because Yu Bingcheng's son was still alive and Yu Bingcheng had no military experience, the family was stunned from the 1990s. Complaints arrived in the new century.

 It wasn't until the seventh declassification of the 221 base's files in 2010 that Yu Bingcheng's son and granddaughter got rid of the label of “connected households”.

Think of this.

 Xu Yun couldn't help but frowned.

 At the detonation test site, there is basically no need to worry about tragedy. So is there any solution to the radiation problem at Factory 504?

There is definitely no possibility for uniforms. After all, the refining of enriched uranium is about to begin, and it is almost impossible to develop a new material from now on.

 So the idea must be developed toward drugs.

 The anti-radiation drugs of later generations are generally chelating agents, such as calcium excretion stimulant, zinc excretion stimulant, etc.

These drugs take time to synthesize and are not very likely to be used in the short term.

At present, most of the only natural ingredients that have real-time application potential—at least natural extracts like paclitaxel.

etc? !

Natural extracts?

 Suddenly.

A flash of lightning flashed in Xu Yun's mind.

 If I remember correctly, that thing seems to have certain application feasibility?

Although that thing may not completely block nuclear radiation, it is at least much better than today's Prussian blue.

Xu Yun then carefully recalled the relevant information, and his inner confidence increased a bit.

Of course.

The current situation was not suitable for putting forward his own ideas, so Xu Yun quickly returned to his obedient sitting posture.JPG.

at the same time.

 After recording Wang Fangding's needs, Zhu Guangya looked at the other people at the scene:

“In addition to the neutron source project team, what about other comrades? What other equipment and manpower do you need?”

Note:

The rhythm of these three chapters may seem a bit confusing to you, and you may wonder why you have to start allocating equipment after allocating the research and development of the atomic bomb—wasn't it better to just write it all in one go?

The reason is this. I was told that I had to complete this dungeon quickly, so I was forced to speed up the game a few days ago. I couldn't close many foreshadowings, and I was still worried that the atomic bomb would explode in a few days and the game would be ruined.

But with the guarantee of some big bosses, I can continue to write for a while now, so some foreshadowings can be collected slowly without being too hasty, at least until the beginning of next month, so the title actually means this (this is not a title party, right? ?)
