Chapter 326: Energy dispute, is total nitrogen anion salt the future?

In fact, the reason why Chen Nian set up such a subsidy was essentially to preserve the basic foundation of the scientific research team.

In a complete system, genius is of course important, but in addition to genius, there are many ordinary people who form the foundation of this world.

The strategy of the U.S. Immigration Service is essentially targeted at this base.

But it seems that they ran in the wrong direction?

Chen Nian suddenly felt hopeful. Like Liu Hai, he also saw the crisis hidden behind this large-scale recruitment.

When will this crisis break out?

Let's wait and see.

In the office, Chen Nian looked at the first batch of special "rooting" allowance lists and said with some emotion:

"Really, you don't know unless you look at it. It's just preliminary statistics now, and we have discovered that there are so many researchers who have difficulties in life - and it is not just ordinary difficulties."

"Look at this, he has a chronic disease, his mother has cancer, and his wife has an unstable job - the key point is that he is not engaged in the kind of watery topics."

"Topologically heterogeneous network polymer materials are too advanced."

Chen Nian clicked his tongue and shook his head. Li Xiang opposite him had no idea what this term meant, but Chen Nian was very familiar with it.

It should be said that in this era, this thing can no longer be simply described as advanced. It is purely a product of science fiction.

Even in the era when he traveled back in time, this technology had just emerged as a branch of programmable materials. Laboratory trial production was very difficult and was far from practical standards.

Start studying this kind of thing now, no wonder this researcher is not taken seriously

Looking at Chen Nian's expression, Li Xiang asked curiously:

"So what is this? Is it strong?"

"Well, what should I say?"

Chen Nian pondered for a moment, and then explained:

"You know Batman's cape, right? According to the setting in the movie, the memory cloth used in the cape is a type of programmable material."

"However, topologically heterogeneous network polymer materials are more complex. They are directly 'programmed' at the molecular level."

"I can't tell you the specific technology."

"But I dare to say that if this person continues to work hard in this field, he is likely to change the entire world in the future."

"So exaggerated?"

Li Xiang said in surprise.

"That's not true. So, it makes sense for us to set up this special allowance."

“Essentially, this can be regarded as us ‘reinforcing the future’.”

"really."

Li Xiang nodded slightly and then said:

"Even if we don't mention the benefits that may be recovered in the future, in fact, purely from the perspective of social effects, we will not lose money."

"After this subsidy was implemented, the effect on public opinion can be said to be immediate."

"We have compiled statistics on the latest public opinion trends and found that the 'rooting' subsidy has even offset some of the popularity of the US talent introduction plan."

"The originally negative emotions have been completely reversed, and basically satisfactory results have been achieved in all aspects."

"By the way, when you proposed this plan, did you consider similar results?"

"No."

Chen Nian replied simply.

"I simply want to give some money to grassroots R&D personnel."

".This money is worth it."

Li Xiang said with a smile.

After chatting for a few more words about work matters, and seeing that it was almost time to eat, the two simply chatted in the office until they got off work.

"So what's going on with Wang Jiancheng? Are you still working on his exoskeleton?"

Chen Nian asked.

"Isn't that right? You also know that the plateau was a bit unstable before. The superiors arranged for a batch of exoskeletons to be transferred there, and the effect was pretty good."

"The old soldiers on the opposite side were so frightened that they put on exoskeletons and looked like human trebuchets. They were hit one round before they even saw their faces."

"It took a lot of effort to get in front of us. We here are wearing full helmets and armor, and each of us has a seamless steel pipe. We will show no mercy at all."

"It is said that there has been a small reduction in personnel on the opposite side - I estimate that unless they really plan to do something big, there won't be much turmoil on the plateau in the next one or two years."

"This matter can be said to have given Wang Jiancheng a boost. I heard that he has already iterated on several versions, and the functionality of the finished product is pretty good."

"That's good. At least the thing you made is usable."

Chen Nian nodded slightly and then said:

"After this period of time, I will consider absorbing him into Starfire."

"You also know that the Nantianmen project will be launched soon. He is very interested in this aspect and has good ideas."

"Even if the technology does not meet the requirements for the time being, it is still very useful as a 'creative consultant'."

"Isn't that your title?"

Li Xiang said jokingly.

When the J-22 project was first launched, Chen Nian's title at Institute 601 was "creative consultant". Of course, he did more than just creativity.

". It can also be his. I have talked with him before, and he has a good understanding of the functionality of air and space bases. He has proposed a concept called 'high-altitude sovereignty'."

"To put it simply, it is sovereignty over 35 kilometers of airspace."

"This part of the airspace is not well utilized under current conditions - too high for normal aircraft and too low for ballistic missiles and satellites."

"According to his view, if someone builds an aerial platform that floats for a long time and achieves complete control of this type of airspace, it will not only expand the scope of the airspace."

"It can even be said that this aerial platform and the strike range of the aerial platform will become a new country in the sky."

"At that time, the owner of the air platform can even move the platform over the enemy country to maximize the deterrent effect."

After hearing Chen Nian's explanation, Li Xiang nodded slightly.

"It is indeed a very avant-garde idea - it should be said that this idea is consistent with the idea of ​​integrated air and space operations."

"It fills the gap in the middle part of the aviation and aerospace fields and expands the competition for spheres of influence."

"But, can this thing really be realized? Can an air platform withstand missile attacks from enemy countries?"

"This is the key to the problem - not only can it withstand it, but it also has natural advantages in terms of anti-missile capabilities."

"The success rate of pursuit is always higher than that of interception, and if laser weapons can be integrated on the air platform, that is not to mention it."

"In an environment with a thin atmosphere, the disadvantages of laser weapons are completely eliminated. It is very likely that the combat methods of future wars will be completely changed."

"Are you going to do laser?"

Li Xiang asked subconsciously.

Chen Nian thought for a moment and replied:

"Let's not do it for now."

"Laser is closely related to nuclear fusion. It's too early to do it now. I still plan to develop metallic hydrogen first and use it with new batteries to deal with the energy hegemony of the United States first."

"Okay - Isaac, we are already dealing with it, and we expect there will be results in the short term."

"Not in a hurry."

Chen Nian replied calmly.

After a moment of silence, he asked again:

"What is Qiu Mai doing recently?"

"Reading, doing projects, mechatronics and hydraulics integration project. There is no big progress, I guess I have to take my time."

"What, you want to find work for her?"

"Not looking for it."

Chen Nian shook his head and replied:

"It suddenly occurred to me that if Qiu Mai can achieve some breakthrough results, maybe she can be involved in the metallic hydrogen project."

"But now it seems that her progress is still a bit slow."

"Give her some more time."
