Chapter 185: Successful Trial Operation

“Circuit injection!”

“Heating experiment commencing...”

“Heating experiment successful!”

“The reactor pressure is 25 MPa. It has reached the predetermined parameter!”

...

Following that, Chen Chen watched these employees continue to perform their busy operations. Rows of data were constantly generated, becoming indicators for the generation of power.

After more than an hour of operation, the operating staff came over with pages on which dense lines of data were printed. “Report — experiments have shown no incidents of stack or unit tripping. The maximum shaft vibration of the steam turbine generator is 26.1 microns and the generator’s rate of hydrogen leaking is 5.4Nm3/d. The meter input rate, protection input rate, and automatic input rate are all at 100%!”

The bald man took the papers and looked at them, then nodded to Chen Chen.

Chen Chen said, “In that case, get ready to commence the full-load trial operation.”

According to the plan of this nuclear power plant, the first trial operation would be at full load, during which it would run for a total of 168 hours. As long as everything went smoothly during the trial operation, it could then be officially put into use.

As for the staff of the nuclear power plant, Chen Chen had relied on the method of renting and training. First, he rented a group of engineers from China National Nuclear Corporation to get the nuclear power plant up and running, then asked these people to help train Chen Chen’s own employees.

Of course, these employees would only maintain the operations of the nuclear power plant. Chen Chen was also going to recruit a group of technical personnel from around the world to deal with possible failures in the nuclear power plant in the future.

In the following period, Chen Chen made sure the engineers were well taken care of. After seven days had passed and the trial operation was over, Chen Chen then sent them away from Namibia.

The success of the trial operation meant that the nuclear power plant could officially enter the stage of commercial operation.

The fuel rods in the reactor would be able to operate at full power for 12 months. After 12 months, the efficiency of the fuel rods would decrease and the targeted power would not be achieved. At that time, it would be called “spent fuel”.

In other words, after the fuel rods had become spent fuel, the nuclear power plant would then replace the fuel rods. The supply and replacement of these fuel rods would also be carried out by China National Nuclear Corporation, so Chen Chen did not have to worry about this.

Doing this would also prevent tongues from wagging on an international scale. After all, if nuclear fuel was controlled by a private company, it would easily arouse global suspicion.

This was because theoretically, highly-enriched uranium could be extracted from these low-enriched uranium rods to perform research on nuclear weapons.

After sending off the construction team of the nuclear power plant, Chen Chen returned to the nuclear power plant again. When the vehicle was about to pass through the gates, Chen Chen suddenly asked Cheng Cao to stop the car.

Following that, Chen Chen opened the door and stared quietly at the nuclear power plant nearby.

“I’ve finally done it...”

Chen Chen sighed to himself. From getting the USB flash drive to charging it for the first time and finally up until the completion of the Blacklight Biotechnology Nuclear Power Plant in Namibia — all of these, in Chen Chen’s mind, seemed to have happened in a flash, yet it also felt as long as ten years...

However, in truth, all this had only passed by in two and a half years. If Chen Chen was still in school now, it would only be the end of the second half of junior year, when the internship period of the senior year was about to begin.

As he gazed at the nuclear power plant standing like a small city on the seashore, Chen Chen narrowed his eyes.

Now, he had endless money, compared to the past him who had nothing at the time. Even if he put aside the fact that every ten years, there would be eleven families who would send him money, he was still making money every day from the Eco Science City.

As more time passed, an increasing number of institutions would master the technology of the “Age-reversal treatment”. Nonetheless, as the pioneer in this field, Chen Chen had accumulated an abundant amount of capital.

Even now, with the Eco Science City in addition to the Tara subsidiary, his weekly turnover was growing at the rate of hundreds of millions...

Although Blacklight Biotechnology had never been listed, Wall Street had valued it to be more than 100 billion USD.

Therefore, if money was his only goal, Chen Chen was standing on top of the world. Compared with those consortium families, the only thing he lacked was the foundation and the level of accumulation.

Still, of course, Chen Chen was not yet satisfied.

He still remembered that when he first obtained the USB drive, he had listed three options for himself: money, power, and strength.

After asking himself many questions, he had selected the last option without reservations.

This was because money and power were merely an extension of strength. In other words, money and power were both abstract, illusory products.

Only strength was real and solid.

As he thought of this, Chen Chen’s originally bewildered eyes gradually regained calmness. He once again looked toward the busy employees in the nuclear power plant and a thoughtful smile raised the corners of his mouth.

Now. it was time for him to pursue a new strength...

With this in mind, Chen Chen got into the car again. As the Wrangler’s engine roared to life, the security guard at the nuclear power plant opened the gate at once and let the Wrangler drive in.

The Jeep Wrangler moved directly to the booster substation in the nuclear power plant where the electricity would ultimately pass through.

The booster substation was connected to the external high-voltage transmission tower. The electricity from the nuclear power station was boosted here, then sent to the high-voltage transmission tower.

Even so, back when the nuclear power plant was designed, Chen Chen had asked the designer to build the substation as a huge building, like a warehouse.

Now, Chen Chen came directly to the substation and immediately saw that the employees of the substation were standing outside the door with a stupefied expression, watching a group of cloned fighters enter and exit.

These cloned fighters, under Little X’s control, were renovating and transforming the substation into an environment that would better suit Chen Chen’s needs.

“Boss, Boss Chen?”

The employees were the China National Nuclear Corporation employees whom Chen Chen had rented. The leader of the team had memorized Chen Chen’s license plate number long ago and immediately came forward. “Boss Chen, why are you here?”

“Substations are the central hub of nuclear power plants, after all. Of course, I had to take a look.”

Chen Chen got out of the car, took out a few personnel assignment letters he had prepared, and handed them to everyone. “You’re all high-end talents in the nuclear industry. The work of managing a substation is really a waste of your skills. I have arranged new jobs for you. Just leave this place to this group of people.”

“Okay, sure...”

The leader dared not ask too many questions and could only agree before he quickly led his team away.

After sending these people away, Chen Chen walked into the booster substation in high spirits.

After the Black Knights renovated the place, the substation had undergone tremendous changes by now. It was like a small factory with numerous facilities. At the core of the substation, there was a huge metal room.

The metal room was a square space with side-lengths of 10 meters. The entire structure was made of an alloy, which had high protective abilities and corrosion resistance. There were even lead plates in the interlayer of the walls.

These protections were for the sake of preventing any mishaps.

Outside the room, a bulky circuit was fixed onto the wall. As long as the power was turned on, the electricity from the entire nuclear power plant would flow through this spot. After boosting, it would be channeled into the high-voltage transmission tower and sent to thousands of households.

Therefore, this place was also the most effective area for intercepting electricity.
