The meeting ended.

Professor Whittle walked confidently out of the conference room. He cursed in a quiet voice, and he had an expression of resentment on his face.

“This dictator! Might as well fire the board.”

When he worked in a similar position at CERN, no one dared to ignore his opinions like this. However, during his time on the ILHCRC board of directors, he experienced more frustration in one year than he had over the last 40 years of his career.

Professor Fernando, the board of director for the ILHCRC British Council, was walking next to him. Fernando hesitated a bit before he said, “Actually I think… he’s being somewhat reasonable.”

Whittle looked at Professor Fernando in disbelief. Whittle said, “I can’t believe… You actually think he’s reasonable?”

Professor Fernando shrugged and continued, “There’s no better choice. It is better to do something than to waste time on meaningless arguments. Moreover, like he said, very few people can fully understand his proof. If we wait until the physics community accepts his point of view, we might have to wait five years or even longer.”

Professor Whittle asked puzzledly, “Don’t you think this is a necessary procedure?”

“I think it might be a necessary procedure. We should remain skeptical at all times, but the premise is that our suspicion should be grounded by something. For example, if there is a mistake in his paper, and he can’t provide an explanation… But that obviously isn’t the case.”

Professor Whittle was in deep thought, so Professor Fernando continued, “If he can prove his paper through experiments, what’s wrong with that?

“Think about it, it’s a blessing to have a reliable leader.”

…

The ILHCRC board meeting was over.

The results of the discussion at the meeting were announced to the world at a press conference.

ILHCRC had shocked the world again.

The headline of the Wall Street Journal used a picture of Mars with “ILHCRC” as their headline.

[According to the results of the meeting, the ILHCRC will launch an experimental rocket loaded with a “Z particle clock” to the Mars geosynchronous orbit in the near future, to test the correctness of the hyperspace theory.]

[If this experiment is successful, this might mean that interstellar travel is possible!]

From an objective point of view, this statement was a bit too optimistic.

Even if the experiment was successful, it would only prove the possibility of achieving faster than light speeds through hyperspace channels theoretically. With the current technology, it would be impossible to maintain a stable hyperspace channel and transmit a spacecraft weighing hundreds of tons through this channel.

In fact, forget about maintaining a stable hyperspace channel. So far, the research on Z particles was only done on a few detectors at the Lunar Hadron Collider. The physics community had doubts about whether the ILHCRC could even produce Z particles.

Even if the Z particles could only appear for a short amount of time for a physics experiment, it could still be applied to many things.

For example…

A high-powered laser!

The Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.

Inside a spacious factory.

As Professor Dobrik looked at the experimental equipment in front of him, he was dumbfounded. Dobrik opened and closed his mouth. After a while, he mumbled, “What… is this?”

There was a round metal ball about four meters tall. On the surface of the ball shell were rivets, as well as various pipes and connection cables.

From a structural point of view, it was very similar to the National Ignition Facility (NIF) device that was abandoned.

In fact, it was indeed designed based on similar concepts. The only difference was that this device was not used to simulate a nuclear explosion. Instead, it was used to generate Z particles.

“Z particle clock, we can use it to produce Z particles.” Lu Zhou had a smug smile on his face. He said, “Although it is expensive and has shortcomings, it is absolutely reliable.”

According to his calculations, when two lead ions collided with an energy of 1.25 TeV, the Z particles would release 750 GeV of energy from a high dimension to a three-dimensional space.

After the device was turned on, it could generate energy similar to stars in a tiny reaction chamber, thereby pressurizing the lead core located in the center of the reaction chamber. This pushed the ionized lead ions to collide violently, causing the Z particles to fall from higher dimensions to lower dimensions.

Since all of its energy would be released within one minute, when generating the Z particles and disturbing the gravitational field, the heat would destroy the device itself. This was a one-use experimental machine.

Also, the cost of this machine was about 200 million yuan.

One experiment would require two machines.

Only the ILHCRC could conduct such an expensive experiment.

“But… I still don’t understand. How did you make this thing in such a short timeframe?” Professor Dobrik looked at Lu Zhou and said, “From the end of the meeting to now… It’s been less than two weeks, right?”

This was what he was most surprised at.

If it took a year to make this thing, he wouldn’t be surprised. But the two weeks was a bit ridiculous.

“This is because of the strong industrial capabilities of the high-tech zone and… our intelligent manufacturing process. As long as the materials and processing conditions are met, the zone can turn blueprints into reality immediately, just like a 3D printer.” Lu Zhou paused and said, “As for the design, I had already completed it earlier.”

He was the former chief designer for the controllable fusion project. It was not difficult for him to design a laser ignition device, especially since he was level 7 in engineering now.

Dobrik was so shocked he was speechless. Professor Wei, who was standing next to them, hadn’t said a word since he stepped into the factory.

Professor Wei stared at the Z particle clock for a long time before he spoke.

“If this Z particle clock really works… The whole world will change.”

“Maybe.” Lu Zhou smiled and said, “I have high expectations.”

Wei Hong: “When do you plan to send it to Mars?”

Lu Zhou thought for a bit and said, “The launch plan will begin before the end of the month.

“If everything goes well…

“I want to launch it before the Chinese New Year!”
