Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 122 Yang Ning's Letter of Request for Battle (Three more chapters, please subscribe)

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start the meeting."

The newly built Atomic Research Institute in the suburbs of 56 had just entered its th year, and even the cyclotron and heavy water reactor were still under construction. Director Nie and Dean Qian, who had become the dean, gathered together the experts involved in the research of atomic energy projects and held a swearing-in ceremony for the establishment of the Atomic Research Institute.

Although various experiments cannot be carried out yet because the single reactor and one device have not been completed, research on the atomic bomb has already begun in advance.

As the computing person in charge of the Atomic Project, Yang Ning naturally also participated in this meeting.

"Everyone here is an expert in their respective fields, so I won't stress the confidentiality clause any further."

Director Nie glanced at the experts below with a serious expression and said.

"I am here to encourage you and provide logistical support for you. As for how to build our own atomic bomb, I believe everyone here knows more than I do."

"Now I will pass on the instructions from above!"

Director Nie took out a few pieces of letter paper, unfolded them, glanced at the people below, then lowered his head to look at the letter in his hand and read in a sonorous and powerful voice:

"Dear scientific researchers, first of all... the current international situation is still grim. We are always facing nuclear blackmail from imperialism. In order to cope with this grim situation, we must develop our own atomic bomb. I hope you will overcome difficulties and continue to display the spirit of not fearing hardship or fatigue..."

"Wow~"

When Director Nie finished reading the above document, especially after hearing the signature at the end of the document, everyone present stood up and applauded enthusiastically.

"Okay, the document has been read out. I will say one last thing. I'm counting on you all!" After saying that, Director Nie bowed slightly to the participants.

He knew that before long, many people here would go to the Northwest, where they would endure hardships and live in anonymity, just so that we could stand up straight.

"Wow~"

There was another round of warm applause in the meeting hall.

Director Nie looked at the passionate and determined scientific and technological workers below and pressed his hands down.

Next, Dean Qian will divide the researchers participating in the project into two parts, one part of which will be assigned to the Northwest.

Since the higher-ups decided that we should research the atomic bomb ourselves, preliminary construction work had already begun there last year.

Although the construction has not been completed yet, some facilities are already ready for use.

The other part stayed in Sijiucheng and later used the built reactors and cyclotrons to conduct atomic research, providing a theoretical basis for atomic bomb research in the northwest.

Because Yang Ning also had to undertake computational work in other areas, he stayed in Sijiu City with the theoretical department.

"In November last year, Big Brother's hydrogen bomb that can be used in actual combat was successfully detonated. The current situation does not allow us to study step by step according to the routine, so the higher-ups decided that we should do it all at once and directly study the implosion-type atomic bomb based on the radiation implosion theory of Big Brother and Eagle Sauce hydrogen bombs."

"In this way, as long as we succeed in our atomic bomb research, we can immediately switch to the hydrogen bomb field, greatly shortening our research process."

In the theoretical department meeting room, Dean Qian said with a serious expression.

"But for these studies, apart from understanding some basic theories, the rest are all deliberately misleading news released by Big Brother and Eagle Sauce to confuse us.

What we need to do now is to filter out the information that is useful to us from these messages, so as to avoid taking detours later. "Now we don't have the support of Big Brother, and we have to rely on ourselves to explore everything.

Although there is a lot of information about atomic bomb technology out there, everyone knows that most of that information is used by Big Brother and the Eagle Sauce to deceive people.

When it comes to the real core secrets, they keep them more strictly than each other.

We are still lucky here, but John Bull suffers a great loss in this regard.

When the Eagle Sauce was researching the atomic bomb, in order to save time with the Little Mustache, they sent a request for technical support to John Bull, promising that he could share the atomic bomb technology with them after the atomic bomb research was successful.

Everyone knows the final result. John Bull, who has always been a rude person, saw someone even more rude for the first time.

Afterwards, the Americans not only refused to provide them with atomic bomb technology, but also legislated to protect the atomic bomb technology.

This trick confused John Bull. After playing with the eagle for hundreds of years, he was finally pecked in the eye by the eagle.

Even those scientists who participated in the Manhattan Project were unable to bring back clear technology because of the Eagle Sauce's precautions. In the end, John Bull had to start all over again and worked for the Eagle Sauce for several years in vain.

Since the main task of the Atomic Research Institute is to collect information, there is little point in Yang Ning staying here.

He didn't have much knowledge in this area, so it was too difficult for him to filter out useful information from the mixed true and false information.

"Comrade Yang Ning, you should focus on your own affairs during this period, but you should also plan your time as early as possible. As long as the construction of the reactor and cyclotron is completed, there will be a lot of data that needs to be calculated by you."

Finally, Dean Qian looked at Yang Ningyu and gave her a serious instruction.

"Don't worry, I will try my best to arrange my time." Yang Ning nodded and replied.

On the way back to the data processing institute, Yang Ning thought of the atomic bomb project that was about to enter the substantive stage, the missile research project launched this year, and the booming development in other fields.

“We’re finally going to go full throttle this year!”

Yang Ning knew that as time went by, semiconductor technology would develop rapidly and his computing power advantage would become smaller and smaller.

Only by catching up while we still have an absolute advantage in computing power can we avoid falling too far behind other countries in the future.

Thinking of this, Yang Ning returned to the office, wrote his ideas into a report and submitted it.

In this report, Yang Ning analyzed our current advantages and the growing semiconductor industry abroad, indicating that now is the best time for us to use our computing power advantages to catch up with the gap. We hope that the restrictions on ourselves can be relaxed so that we can play a greater role.

After all, if we really have to wait until a supercomputer with a computing speed of billion times is born abroad, we will never have such a good opportunity again.

"I agree to your request, but you need to cooperate with the medical staff's inspections at any time. If you find any abnormalities, you must stop working immediately."

Looking at the reply above, Yang Ning smiled faintly.

"Finally, I can roll up my sleeves and work hard! Now that I have returned to this era, how can I let my mother suffer the grievances of the past life again!"
