Chapter 1497: Conceptual Model of Magnetic Field Generator

In the interrogation room.

Song Yangwei, who was sitting at the table in handcuffs, had his head drooped. No color was visible on his face. He was full of despair and regret.

Over.

He could even guess what was happening in the stock market at this moment without even looking.

Without his signature, it would be impossible for Yangwei Capital to spend a large sum of money to continue his short-selling plan. Besides, the entire company was counting on his secret weapon. Only he knew that this weapon had been confiscated…

“First name.”

“Song Yangwei… Do you still need to ask this?”

“It’s just a process.”

Xing Bian was outside the interrogation room, he looked at Director Song’s bitter face through the glass. Xing Bian continued blankly, “Then, let’s get to the topic, when did you start contacting The Spirit of The Universe Foundation?”

He seemed hesitant, but he still spoke.

“About fifteen years ago…”

“Fifteen years ago?” Xing Bian glanced at him. “I remember that Yangwei Capital was registered 15 years ago.”

“Yes.” Song Yangwei nodded slightly and said frankly, “I admit that I have received funding from the foundation, and my first profit was earned with their help.”

Nodding thoughtfully, Captain Xing, who made a mark on this confession, continued to ask, “Who else is funded by the foundation like you?”

“Liu Zhengxing.”

Shi Jin stared at him and reprimanded, “Don’t think about being sneaky, we didn’t ask you to name a dead person.”

“The only one I know is him. I’m not lying!”

Seeing Song Yangwei’s tension on his face, Captain Xing thought for a moment and continued to ask, “Well, we understand the rough situation. Thank you for your cooperation. You can go home tomorrow.”

Song Yangwei was stunned. Thinking that he had heard it wrong, he repeated the sentence in disbelief, “Go home?”

“Yeah.” Captain Xing nodded and said concisely, “Even though in principle there is no bail for the crime of endangering social security, it is useless to keep you here. It is better to go home and wait for the result. Wait until the court’s decision is made. We will reschedule. In addition, you have been restricted from leaving the country during this period, and you are restricted from leaving Jinling… Of course, if you want to stay here, that is fine.”

“No.” Song Yangwei said immediately, “Please let me out, and the bail—”

“The bail will be waived. As I said, this is not a normal bail procedure.” Captain Xing continued in an official tone, “If you have any information that can help us, it is best to provide it to us before the ruling is made. After the ruling is made, even if we want to help you get a chance to take a lighter sentence, it will be difficult.”

No one wanted to stay in jail.

Also, Song Yangwei was a busy man, and there was a company for him to worry about. In any case, as long as he could get out of jail and get in touch with his investment manager, the price was worth it.

Outside the interrogation room.

Looking at the captain, Shi Jin spoke in confusion.

“Captain.”

“What?”

“We… Why should we let him go?”

Captain Xing said casually, “Not letting him go, but to put him under house arrest.”

“But…”

“I suspect that there are still people on the board of directors of East Asia Energy who are involved in this.” Xing Bian took out an e-cigarette from his pocket, took a drag, and continued, “At least one more. Otherwise, they would not be able to control the board so easily.”

The moment he heard these words, Shi Jin was slightly taken aback. He then looked at his captain in surprise.

“Do you think…”

“If the bait is not big enough, how can you catch a big fish?” Captain Xing smiled faintly and continued in a flat tone, “Remember to empty all the robots in his house, as well as drones and all smart appliances, then around his house. Arrange two teams to be on standby.

“I don’t believe that we can’t even catch a single living person!”

…

In the last week of January, the campus of Jin Ling University was a bit more lively.

Although it would be winter vacation in a few days, many students who had finished classes had already taken the car back to their hometowns in advance, but at this moment, the flow of people on the campus of Jin Ling University had not decreased. Instead, it increased.

From undergraduates to 40-year-old middle-aged people who had been working for more than ten years, the people who came here to apply for jobs covered almost all walks of life and fields, all those who were involved in controllable fusion were all here.

There was only one reason.

The giant company with the largest market value in Asia would hold a job fair here today.

And this wasn’t just it.

Different from last autumn’s recruitment, this time, because Academician Lu was so furious and cut off an entire research institute, the entire electromagnet research laboratory was now empty. According to rumors, the labor gap had even reached 2,000 people!

What did two thousand jobs mean?

This meant that the usual acceptance rate of less than 1% might be more than ten times higher this time. Even considering that the number of applicants would be much larger than usual, the probability of successful selection would definitely be higher than before.

If someone wanted to enter this research institution with the best pay and benefits in Asia, this recruitment was undoubtedly the best opportunity.

However…

If they were to think this job fair was easy, they would be mistaken.

In the first round of the first test, many people already felt the malice from the person who made the questions; 90% of the million applicants were directly wiped out.

And the remaining 100,000 people were tortured by the difficult and bizarre questions during the second round of the on-site written test. Many people even walked out of the examination room crying.

“Who wrote these questions? F*cking bullsh*t!”

“I heard that Academician Lu himself wrote it…”

“Academician Lu himself?! Impossible! It’s been less than a month since he woke up from the dormant cabin, how could he give us exam questions?”

“Why is this impossible? Isn’t he a director of the East Asia Energy Science and Technology Committee? I heard that Li Guangya of the Pan-Asian Cooperation also invited him to serve as Minister of Science and Technology, but he is not very interested in politics, so he didn’t agree.”

“The version I heard is Chief Consultant.”

“It doesn’t matter to him. For that kind of genius, common sense doesn’t apply! Maybe in just one month, he has already learned a century of research?”

It was not just the candidates who were struggling.

Looking at the transcript sent from HR in front of him, Director Tang of the electromagnet research laboratory also had a headache.

“A total of 3,211 people achieved A and 5,102 achieved B… With all due respect, the first round of written examination was barely okay. I think the difficulty of the second round of written examination was a bit ridiculous.”

“There are so many?” There was a hint of surprise on Lu Zhou’s face. He couldn’t help nodding in approval. “As expected of my disciples.”

In his original plan, roughly 4,000 people would pass the second round of written examinations. Half of the remaining people would be filtered. They could be employed after some basic training.

He didn’t expect that there were so many more candidates than he expected.

“Is it too much? The main reason is that the base number of applicants is too large, but I think it is not that much…” Tang Yunge said with a wry smile, “To be honest, the exam questions you put out may be difficult for those fresh graduates with no work experience.”

Generally speaking, the written test was just a threshold to screen the professional skills of the applicants.

The real talent selection would be during the interviews. According to different positions, the work experiences or academic resumes of the applicants would be reviewed individually.

East Asia Energy’s employment gap was two thousand, not two hundred or twenty. Besides, this was in accordance with Lu Zhou’s request, where he intended to use the electromagnet research laboratory as a new reform pilot and would not transfer management from other departments. He would only send executives from here to other departments in the future.

In the face of such a huge employment gap, appropriate relaxation of standards was necessary. However, after these two rounds of written examinations, only eight thousand people were left. If they wanted to choose the right person from them, there was very little room for them to choose.

“My opinion is just the opposite of yours. Candidates who can pass the exam questions I set have already mostly passed. Among the rest, you choose the best. See which one works well.” Lu Zhou smiled and continued, “Don’t worry, I am still very confident of my own vision, and I will definitely not let you down.”

Tang Yunge sighed and said, “I believe you…”

Whether he believed it or not, he couldn’t do anything.

The holographic meeting ended. The light blue particles faded from the surroundings, revealing the appearance of the room before it was reconstructed by the holographic beam.

Lu Zhou stretched out on the sofa. He then got up and returned to the study room.

Having just gone through a round of shock treatment, East Asia Energy’s electromagnet research laboratory was currently undergoing reconstruction. It was still difficult to use it in the near future.

Furthermore, the A1-pulsed magnetic field generator he designed was only a conceptual product. Even if the electromagnetic field was amplified several tens of times, it would not reach the order of 1T.

And, to be honest, Lu Zhou could only give a vague guess as to whether this thing could be used for controllable fusion. He couldn’t make judgments on unknown things based on imagination.

He could only say that if he continued to research according to this line of thought, he could probably discover something.

Sitting in front of the holographic computer, after Lu Zhou pondered for a few seconds, he typed a title on the holographic interface.

[Theoretical Analysis of High-Energy Explosive Magnetic Compression and Conceptual Model of Pulsed Magnetic Field Generator]

“I hope it can play a role in making others interested.”

Looking at this title, Lu Zhou smirked.

It was impossible for the huge electromagnet laboratory to operate with only some temporary recruits.

If the situation was optimistic, this paper should attract the attention of some scholars engaged in research in related fields and promote the birth of more valuable results.

Of course, if he could hire them for his own projects, it would be even more perfect…
