The material and component factories dedicated to the core were also gradually and successfully separated under the leadership of the higher authorities. These sites were all conveniently located, but not all in the same place. All eggs should not be put in one basket, thus spreading the risk of leaks. Many factories assigned to confidentiality tasks were not even aware that the components they were processing would be used in the core of the controlled nuclear fusion reactor.
It can be said that Wu Tong and the entire team have taken into consideration all the issues that can be considered.
The site selection was determined, and the core construction process was prepared and discussed in group meetings again.
Next, they would conduct preliminary research and development work on the reactor construction. Later, a portion of personnel would remain at the Jinwu Project Experimental Base to maintain operations, continue data collection, and perform other supporting tasks. The majority of the personnel were already prepared and, upon Wu Tong's orders, would depart immediately for the Jinwu pile construction site at the estuary.
At the estuary, after the site had been selected, the area was immediately cleaned and sealed. This was one of the sites Hebei Province had considered for a nuclear power plant, but before they could even apply for construction, a major breakthrough in controlled nuclear fusion technology was achieved, and the construction plan began.
The location was chosen to be in Hebei Province, which was like a huge delicious pie falling from the sky for the province, making them so happy that they were dizzy.
If they couldn't grasp the benefits that were within their grasp, a blessing from heaven, then they would truly lose it. Therefore, the entire Hebei Province attached great importance to this project, and all its focus would be on the construction of Jinwudui.
The local person in charge even went to the scene in person to participate in the organization and deployment work. The security team had already set out on the day of the selection and established a defense force that was no less than that of the Jinwu Experimental Base. There was a guard post every five steps and a sentry every ten steps. They would never let a strange mosquito enter the protection area. This has become the slogan and code of conduct of the security force!
As soon as the cleanup work was completed, the Nuclear Industry Group immediately set out to the local area, and materials were quickly delivered, starting the construction project in full swing. It was at this time that Wu Tong left Shangjing and set off to the construction site of the estuary. She was invited by Li Jianshe, the chief designer of the Nuclear Industry Construction Group, to conduct an on-site inspection of the construction site and exchange ideas on the establishment of the experimental plant and the design of the demonstration reactor construction.
These are crucial issues that determine the success of this demonstration reactor, and Wu Tong personally reviewed them for added assurance. In the transition from the experimental reactor to the demonstration reactor, they must proceed steadily and strive for excellence at every step. Only then can they successfully complete the transition from the experimental reactor to the demonstration reactor.
Although it's been just over a week since the site was selected, the entire demonstration reactor construction site is already taking shape. Work is in full swing. Large-scale construction machinery is already in operation, and workers in hard hats are moving back and forth across the site, hard at work. All supplies are already in place.
The higher-ups attached great importance to this pile construction project. In order to ensure the smooth construction of the Jinwu Pile, they gave the green light to all matters related to this project. Any request made by Wu Tong would be arranged in the shortest possible time.
In a word, if you want money, give money; if you want cooperation, give cooperation; if you want resources, give resources; cooperate with all your strength and use the whole country's strength. This is the clear attitude given from the start of the Jinwu Project, and it has been implemented to this day.
"Mr. Wu, for the external design of the Jinwu pile this time, we will use the new MC04 cement as the core foundation and pour it with the optimal proportion of special nuclear cement to ensure that our nuclear power plant can remain intact even in the face of an 8-magnitude earthquake!" Sufficient high-quality materials are in place. After confirming the construction plan of the entire construction site with Wu Tong, Li Jianshe pointed to the site where the foundation was being dug and made the assurance to Wu Tong.
"For this project, the entire Nuclear Industry Construction Group has shifted its focus here. Multiple construction teams are working simultaneously to complete this construction task as quickly and efficiently as possible!"
Wu Tong and his superiors had entrusted them with the task of building the first fusion demonstration reactor. They were determined to make it a world-class benchmark project, and future fusion reactors would use this project as a template. To be able to work on such a project was truly a blessing, a lifetime's reward.
Therefore, Li Jianshe has done his best to check and monitor every detail of the project, and will not allow any omissions. If anyone fails to deliver on his promise, he will make it difficult for them!
"I'm confident in leaving this project to you. I'll leave everything to you. Once the pilot plant is completed, we'll be moving here!" Wu Tong nodded earnestly, offering a sincere request. The pilot plant was easy to build. With ample space and simple requirements, it could be cast-in-place quickly.
This wouldn't take long, so Wu Tong had already made thorough screening and migration preparations before setting off. She never faced a battle unprepared, and with her extensive experience from numerous projects, Wu Tong was now able to apply what she had learned to other situations, taking one step at a time and considering the next. She had already seamlessly integrated her R&D experience into her operational plans.
Throughout the project, Wu Tong has not only faced technical challenges but has also devoted considerable energy to project deployment. After this project, she is confident that she will be able to achieve a complete transformation in project management.
As Wu Tong, with unwavering enthusiasm, plunged into the reactor construction project, the outside world was once again in turmoil. As the year drew to a close, the field of controlled nuclear fusion was in turmoil.
Normally, a mere improvement of a few seconds, a minor event, would warrant a dedicated press conference at the ITER International Conference, with much fanfare. But now, in the face of the barrage of news from China, ITER has remained silent and indifferent, leaving them with a bitter taste in their mouth.
From the earliest advances in superconductivity, to the shock of the Jinwu device completing six hours of magnetic confinement, to the inquiries and requests made by other representatives to China at the ITER conference, to the shock that China chose to withdraw from ITER.
Now, before they have digested the fact that China has mastered the controlled nuclear fusion technology and have made initial preparations for response, China has once again announced the official construction of the reactor, which has left them dumbfounded again and once again triggered collective shock in the international plasma physics community and the controlled nuclear fusion industry.
