"I think Professor Marburg's judgment was not wrong! It's just that Lu Qiujian's performance was incredible! Who would have thought that a theoretical physicist could perform so well in the applied field?" said the current presidential science and technology adviser.

John Holdren, director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, came to the defense of his predecessor.

"But what's the result now? Is it like this? We can only watch helplessly as China's science and technology explodes into surprising achievements again and again under his leadership?" Leon Panetta said dissatisfied, "

If he was still in Europe, we could have taken various ways to bring him to the United States! But now we have nothing to do with him!"

"And is the Xihe Plan really for space exploration and research as China has promoted to the outside world?" Due to the professional habits of intelligence personnel, Panetta also had doubts about the true purpose of the Xihe Plan.

"Is battery technology related to space exploration?" Ao Guanhai turned his attention to NASA Director Michael Douglas Griffin, "Mr. Griffin, what do you think?"

"Battery technology is widely used in the field of space exploration. For example, satellites, space explorers, etc. all use this advanced technology!" After speaking, he shrugged, "We submitted a purchase application to China, but they have been unwilling to do so.

We plan to sell the batteries directly; so we are currently discussing whether we should import electric vehicles from China and then remove the batteries and use them!"

"Is taxpayers' money being wasted like this?" Ao Guanhai couldn't help complaining, "Can't you get battery samples and study them yourself?"

"Of course we have tried!" Griffin shook his head helplessly, "Our researchers took apart the battery and studied it carefully. The other problems are not beyond our imagination. What kind of key metal material is it? We have tried our best.

I’ve tried various methods, but I still can’t copy it!”

"So it seems that the key to China's battery technology breakthrough lies in this special metal material? Leon, is there any way to get the formula of this metal?" Everyone turned their attention to the head of the world's most powerful intelligence department.

people.

Leon Panetta shook his head, "Since this new type of battery came out, it has attracted our attention; through investigation, we found that this metal is only produced in the secret factory of Changan Nonferrous Metals Company! The confidentiality is very strict, and we

We tried many times! We lost several intelligence personnel, but still found nothing!”

"Intensify the investigation! Director Griffin, contact relevant agencies across the United States to conduct in-depth research on this metal! We must get this key technology into our hands!" Ao Guanhai ordered.

"According to our investigation, they seem to be producing another new type of material in this secret factory! It's just that we haven't been able to find out the exact information!" Panetta added with a frown.

"Is it another product of Xihe's plan?" Hillary Clinton couldn't help but ask, "It seems that Condoleezza's persistence was wise! She was just misled by Marburg!"

"Now is not the time to dwell on past mistakes! Let's think about what methods to take to obtain this technology!" Michael Mullen brought the focus of the discussion back.

"We will continue to increase research on this metal! Increase the budget and mobilize more manpower! Contact research units across the United States!" Griffin explained in advance, "But breakthroughs in materials science are the most difficult, even if they are the same

If the ingredient ratio is slightly different during the processing, the performance will change greatly! If we don't know the specific production process of the Chinese people, it will be difficult for us to make the same finished product!"

"We will also mobilize more intelligence personnel to target this secret factory and the research base of the Xihe Project!" Leon Panetta said.

"We can work hard through diplomatic channels! See if we can trade with China with some technologies that China urgently needs, but are not of great value to us! At the same time, we propose to China that it violates the principle of free trade.

Protest!" Hillary made a suggestion based on her position, "If China does not agree to our request, we will also restrict the export of certain high-precision technologies in retaliation!"

Panetta curled his lips and said nothing. The U.S. team's technical blockade against China has lasted for many years, but China is still making progress day by day under the strict blockade.

"Just do as you say!" Ao Guanhai said to end today's meeting.

In the following days, in news reports, the United States launched a series of attacks on China, which caused a stir among the public. However, in private, the United States came up with several technologies that they were about to eliminate in an attempt to compete with China.

Exchange for the latest battery technology! This unreasonable request was of course decisively rejected by the Chinese government.

"The Americans are getting restless again! Since they withdrew their troops from the Middle East, they seem to have plans to return to Asia! I'm afraid we will be under greater pressure in the next few years!" Qin Feng said to Lu Qiujian in the Chang'an base.

.

"What is expected! Not to mention the improvement of military technology after the launch of this technology, it will pose a threat to the United States! From the perspective of the civilian market alone, the markets of established companies such as General Motors and Ford will probably also be strongly impacted.

!Who made environmentalism so popular in Europe and the United States? Compared with traditional fuel vehicles, electric vehicles

The pollution to nature will be much less. Once our products enter the European and American markets, they will definitely be welcomed by these environmentalists! It’s impossible for these big companies not to worry!" Lu Qiujian said with a smile, "They are

The White House has strong influence and there is dual pressure from the military and capitalists, so it is not surprising that such a move would take place!”

"Well, the return of the United States to Asia is something we have long expected! Since the completion of the shale gas revolution, the United States' dependence on Middle East oil has gradually decreased. However, our country has been developing in recent years and has gradually become the United States' biggest rival in the world.

! We expected them to make such a move! The new battery technology just gave them a reason!" Qin Feng said this because he didn't want to put too much pressure on Lu Qiujian!

"This matter is not big this time! I believe that the central government can handle it smoothly!" After speaking, Lu Qiujian's eyes flickered, and after a while he looked straight at Qin Feng, "But wait until the news of the successful controllable nuclear fusion
