#898 - Chapter 898: Moon Mine Plan Launched! Something Happened to Mr. Huang? Everything for Loongso
There isn't just one type of controllable nuclear fusion material.
For example, deuterium and tritium.
Deuterium is abundant in seawater, and nuclear fusion power plants use it, but this material has its problems.
First, its safety is insufficient.
Secondly.
The energy level of deuterium fusion is not high enough.
It's perfectly fine for power generation or small and medium-sized aircraft.
However, the Tiangong is too big!
It needs stronger power, and a deuterium fusion reactor is not enough.
Too many resources have been invested in Tiangong!
Safety first.
Safety hazards due to energy are absolutely not allowed.
Among the available nuclear fusion materials, Helium-3 is the cleanest and most efficient.
Helium-3 fusion reactor.
In other words.
The lunar mine is for the service of Tiangong.
To provide the best quality power source for China to move towards the stars and the sea.
Chen Hao came out of the research center in the afternoon.
Go to the airport immediately!
Three hours later, arrive at the Taiyuan Launch Center.
Today.
Will be the beginning of the third step of the lunar program!
For at least the next year, using mature rocket recovery technology, engineers, materials, equipment, etc., will be continuously transported to the moon - to assemble Helium-3 refining equipment, build living areas and factories.
The factory will be completed in about a year, and Helium-3 refining will officially begin.
To ensure a successful launch, Chen Hao habitually checks and stays busy until dawn.
12:30 AM.
The four major launch centers officially launched.
And if each launch is separated by several days...
It is expected to take a year to complete.
Boom!
The rocket spewed out blazing flames.
Chen Hao raised his head, watching the light soar, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little excited.
When the mine is completed, and the refined Helium-3 is delivered, Tiangong will be completed, right?
General Wang asked excitedly.
Unimaginable!
What a spectacular sight it would be to have a Tiangong, comparable to a small city, suspended outside Earth's orbit?
Tiangong needs more time than the lunar mine.
Chen Hao explained.
It doesn't matter!
General Wang smiled and said, "I will be satisfied if I can see it in my lifetime!"
"The way you say that, it's like you're about to die."
"People have unpredictable misfortunes..."
General Wang hadn't finished speaking when Chen Hao's phone rang.
For some reason, the moment the ringtone rang, Chen Hao had a bad feeling: "Hello?"
"President Chen, it's me!"
It was Zhang Ling's voice, and he sounded very flustered.
"What's wrong?"
"My mother... had an accident!"
"What?!"
Chen Hao's mind couldn't turn around: "How could this be..."
Initially, Zhang Ling was working with him on brain-computer interfaces, responsible for the research and development of neurons, and later, as a medical doctor, he was responsible for testing new medical equipment.
And his mother...
Is the scientist Chen Hao respects the most.
The mother of Longxin.
Academician Huang Lingyi!
But the time doesn't match up: Chen Hao remembers that Old Huang passed away in 2023 in the previous life, which is still many years away, right?
The key.
Academician Huang's chronic diseases in her previous life have also been completely cured in this life.
Logically speaking, her health should be better, right?
"President Chen, can you come..."
"I'll go back to Shanghai right away!"
"You're not in Shanghai?"
"In Taiyuan."
Chen Hao hung up the phone and looked at General Wang: "I'll leave this to you, I'll go back to Shanghai!"
There are countless scientists in China who contribute to the country.
They do their best and die afterwards.
Among them, there are too many touching people and things.
But!
Purely in terms of emotion, the one he respects the most is Academician Huang.
But he just can't figure it out...
How could something happen?
"I'll go with you!"
General Wang said quickly.
"No need, a special plane is too slow."
The next moment.
A huge black shadow fell from the sky and landed more than ten meters away from the two.
A special plane can carry many people, but it is much slower.
Not only does the flight only have subsonic speed, but the key is that he has to go to Taiyuan Civil Aviation Airport, and it also takes a car to get to the city in Shanghai, which is too time-consuming.
Undoubtedly, Xuanjia is much faster.
...
Shanghai Ruijin Hospital.
Outside the emergency center.
Zhang Ling squatted with his head in his hands, his whole person listless.
If his mother hadn't been in critical condition, he wouldn't have disturbed Chen Hao, and he wouldn't have made that phone call.
He knew that his mother admired President Chen very much, thinking that if something really happened, at least... she could see him one last time, right?
As a result, President Chen was far away in Taiyuan!
"How is Old Huang?!"
Suddenly!
In a familiar voice, Chen Hao ran over: "What exactly happened?"
"Chairman Chen, how could you..."
Zhang Ling was dumbfounded.
How long has it been since the call?
It's only been about half an hour, how did he manage to get from Taiyuan to Shanghai, thousands of miles away?
"Don't say those useless things!"
Chen Hao didn't have time to explain.
"My mother is in emergency treatment..."
"I mean, what exactly is Huang Lao's illness? Her old lady's physique is not very good, but logically speaking, she doesn't have any serious illnesses!"
"She..."
Zhang Ling sighed and slowly explained.
My mother didn't have any serious illnesses before.
But!
In recent years, the intensity of her work has been too great, and her energy has been almost exhausted!
Du Yang, Gu Jinglun, and Xie Wu are the people in charge of the lithography machine project.
At first, they were developing immersion lithography machines.
Later.
Xie Wu was responsible for immersion lithography machines, optical lenses, and process accuracy mining, while Du Yang and Gu Jinglun were responsible for the research and development of the new generation of extreme ultraviolet lithography machines - EUV lithography machines.
The three people in charge were divided into two groups.
Especially Xie Wu was in charge of the immersion lithography machine's accuracy mining, which was iterated once every few months.
Can chips be manufactured with lithography machines?
Of course not!
Chip design is also needed.
So, the problem came.
From the first Longxin chip, its performance has surpassed the world.
This means that the latest chip design方案 are completely in the exploration state, and only Huang Lao is the most proficient.
The lithography machine is iterating.
Chip design must follow the iteration.
But...
The lithography machine iterates too fast, Huang Lao can only desperately catch up with the progress, and no one else can replace her position.
After all, she was previously responsible for the design of domestic high-performance chips.
The immersion lithography machine has been iterated several times.
EUV lithography machine has been successfully developed.
Currently.
Quantum chips have been iterated to the second generation!
She kept increasing the intensity of her work, after all, the entire Longxin project team was headed by her as the highest person in charge.
In short.
There are three people in charge of the lithography machine, each responsible for different aspects.
Huang Lao had to use the power of one person to catch up with the iteration of all the new lithography machines.
How could her body and age withstand it?
"Isn't it..."
Chen Hao widened his eyes and murmured: "I said long ago that the chip only needs to be ahead of the world, and if others can't catch up, slowly research it as a technical reserve, there's no need to be so anxious!"
"Mother is too stubborn..."
Zhang Ling sighed.
It's one thing for Chen Hao to say it.
Huang Lao believes that even the most difficult lithography machine has been solved, and as the person in charge of the Longxin project, she must design corresponding chips according to the iteration speed of the lithography machine.
Work overtime!
Stay up late!
"What's the specific condition?"
Chen Hao asked quickly.
"I don't know yet, I fainted and vomited blood before..."
Suddenly!
The emergency room door opened.
Several doctors came out, which not only meant that the hospital attached great importance to it, but also showed that the situation was not optimistic.
The leader was the Dean, Li Hongwei.
