    The Red Alert Base itself can build a fusion power plant. Although the construction period is long and the investment is huge, the power it can generate is equivalent to dozens of ordinary nuclear power plants, which is very cost-effective in terms of efficiency.  Qi Yiming has long been building surplus red-alert power plants and connecting them to the national grid to supply domestic civilian use.  Moreover, he has also built numerous Tesla magnetic power plants before, as well as a large number of new energy power plants, such as wind power, geothermal, tidal energy power plants, etc.  After more than ten years of development, China's power generation capacity has already surpassed that of the United States, and it can fully supply urban and rural residents. Even in relatively remote areas, as long as there are people, there is electricity.

    The launch of fusion power plants will inevitably provide China with more abundant energy, which means that people¡¯s normal production and living costs can be further reduced, and at the same time, more large-scale and advanced projects can be developed.  Sometimes electricity, like transportation, as part of the infrastructure, severely limits the development of a region. When the construction level of this infrastructure is high and the utilization efficiency is good, it will naturally promote the local area to create more economic benefits, and also  Naturally, it will help improve the living standards of local people.

    In addition to the Red Alert fusion power plant built by Qi Yiming himself, after the country mastered fusion reactor technology, it also began to try to build its own nuclear fusion power station.  After years of preparation and construction, finally at this time, the first purely self-produced nuclear fusion power station was successfully established.  Many central government officials also took the time to come, which symbolizes that this power station represents the future of China.

    Qi Yiming is also very interested in taking a look at this large-scale fusion power plant, which is led by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and planned by the State Power.  It is as sci-fi as the Red Alert Building, but the huge area and the rugged modernist architecture make it easier for people to feel the national power behind it.

    He routinely pretended to be an insignificant role and mingled in the visiting team. The people around him were either high-ranking officials or scientific experts, and not many people paid attention to him.  Next to him, a researcher who seemed to be from the Chinese Academy of Sciences sighed: " It is really extremely difficult to study science and technology. If you don't advance against the current, you will retreat. We have been talking for many years about how many years it will take for the fossil fuels on the earth to be used up.  If there were no breakthroughs in human science and technology and the discovery of new energy sources, the development of human civilization might be stuck in winter. Now that we have developed nuclear fusion, it is equivalent to taking a step forward on the road to the development of human civilization.  Great strides!¡±

    ??Scientists don¡¯t think much about international competition and cooperation, but more about technology itself or the perspective of all human beings.  However, Qi Yiming is very clear about the role that the emergence and application of nuclear fusion will play in China's struggle for future world leadership.

    There is an unavoidable problem in the development of modern society, and that is power, that is, energy.  Whoever controls energy will control the development of other countries in the world. In particular, some small and energy-poor countries regard energy security as the top priority of their national strategies.

    In another dimension, a major factor in the United States' world hegemony is that it pegs oil to the U.S. dollar. It also enjoys relatively large influence on the world's major oil-producing countries. At the same time, overseas U.S. military forces all over the world control the channels for energy transportation, blocking  It is the lifeline of China and a number of other countries.  For another example, during the Ukraine crisis, the United States hopes that European allies will impose strong sanctions on Russia, but European natural gas is basically supplied to Russia. If Russia cuts off the supply of natural gas to Europe, the economic losses to European countries will be significant, so European countries  Under pressure, we dare not take too drastic action against Russia.

    In this dimension, China has made plans in advance and built numerous overseas bases and military strongholds along the Indian Ocean coast. As far as Middle East oil is concerned, China is the main force that controls the oil lifeline of other countries in the world, and the United States¡¯ oil-dollar chain is in China¡¯s  Under the teasing, the RMB has become more and more weak, and the RMB has become one of the world's major currencies because of its settlement of oil transactions.  After the issuance of the new renminbi within the SCO at the turn of the millennium, I am afraid that the impact on the status of the US dollar as the world's reserve currency will be even greater.  However, oil still has some disadvantages. First of all, it is not unlimited, and if it is supplied to the country, it needs to be imported in large quantities, which brings more troubles.  From a purely self-sufficiency perspective, fusion power plants can provide a more secure energy supply than oil.  Qi Yiming plans to continue to seize oil with one hand and expand fusion power with the other to fundamentally control the world's energy and determine the dominance of the world.  Thinking of this, Qi Yiming looked at this power plant again and felt even more excited. It was no longer just a symbol of national strength, but also the sustenance of the national destiny.  The Lv3 base has unlocked some superconducting materials with practical value, such as metallic hydrogen used for plasma confinement in fusion reactions. There is also graphene called "black gold", and a series of other similar products, which can improve  Materials for transmission efficiency, future transmission gridsThe network will also be cleaner, more efficient and more convenient.

    Moreover, using the power grid, China can also transport a large amount of surplus electricity to SCO allies or to other countries as a form of revenue, just like exporting oil. However, exporting electricity is relatively cleaner than exporting oil and is harmful to the country.  Ecological damage is also less.

    In addition to the great improvement in energy itself, in terms of the specific utilization of energy, China has a large number of emerging new technology products that are slowly being launched and entering the market.  Their appearance and use change people's lives more in appearance, thereby greatly improving people's living standards.

    Some large domestic automobile manufacturers are optimistic about the new field of electric vehicles.  The two main categories of electric vehicles are fuel cell vehicles and graphene battery vehicles.  Fuel cell technology is widely used, and conventional submarines with airless propulsion use this technology.  Fuel cell vehicles can directly inject hydrogen and then convert chemical energy into electrical energy in the vehicle. The vehicle uses an electric motor to drive. Its efficiency is more than 10% higher than that of ordinary fuel engine vehicles. It will also be cleaner and help create an environmentally friendly society.

    ??The cost of graphene battery vehicles is more than several times higher than that of fuel cell vehicles. Even though Qi Yiming has now mastered the production technology of graphene, the cost is still quite high and the supply exceeds demand.  Graphene batteries have amazing characteristics such as huge electric reserves and extremely fast charging and discharging speeds. Mass-produced graphene battery cars can run thousands of kilometers at a time, and charging only takes a few minutes.  It can be said that graphene battery cars herald the future.  Of course, this kind of car is not yet on the market. Even if it is on the market, it will probably be at a sky-high price. It is mainly to compete in the luxury car market.

    The characteristics of graphene batteries make them more popular in the military field, but their requirements have also become higher.  The military has dozens of major projects that are testing the reliability and advancement of weapon components powered by graphene batteries or graphene materials.  The military is eager to develop electric tanks and armored vehicles with greater mobility, and even aircraft with longer range and combat radius. Although these are unlikely to be realized in a relatively short period of time, the direction is clear.  .  Another major application in electricity is the ¡°intercity ultra-high-speed rail plan¡± proposed by Qi Yiming.  The plan will use trains with a speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour to be built in major cities across the country to connect cities and surrounding towns, counties and cities, allowing manpower, logistics, etc. to circulate at a faster speed.  This is an important measure to expand China's urbanization. For example, over the past decade or so of development in Beijing, congestion and housing difficulties have become apparent. Many people have to get up early and stay up late, taking buses for hours in order to go to work.  And if the construction of the intercity ultra-high-speed express rail is completed, workers who may live in a certain place in Hebei can take the express rail to go out at seven o'clock and arrive at their workplace at eight o'clock. This will evacuate the congested megacities and also promote the surrounding areas.  develop.
