At this moment, Qian Zhizong and the other three were incredibly fortunate. Fortunately, Su Heng was from Long Village. If Su Heng was from another village, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Imagine if Long Village was already behind the world by so much, and then someone like Su Heng emerged from outside. What kind of situation would Long Village face?
Fearful that if not handled properly, the events from the last century might replay themselves in Long Village!
Qian Zhizong and the other three had no doubt that with the aggressive nature of maritime civilizations, such things would happen 100% again!
"Little Su, tell us about your Southern Heaven Gate nuclear fusion power system..."
After a good while, Qian Zhizong and the three subdued their wandering thoughts and then spoke in a composed manner.
Upon hearing this, Su Heng nodded slightly, then said:
"Considering safety and stability factors, I have designed two small controllable nuclear fusion reactors for the Southern Heaven Gate. I have named these controllable nuclear fusion reactors Jinwu 330..."
"Each reactor is capable of providing sufficient energy supply for all equipment on the Southern Heaven Gate, including the engine, magnetic levitation power unit, electromagnetic weapons, laser weapons, radar, and intelligent system!"
"The stable output of energy from one Jinwu 330 reactor can meet the energy needs of a city with a population of 20 million!"
???
Energy for a city with a population of 20 million?
Upon hearing the number Su Heng mentioned, Qian Zhizong and the other three couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise.
"Little Su, are you sure it's a city with 20 million people, not 2 million?"
Almost without thinking, Qin Shan couldn't help but ask.
"Of course, in fact, if operating at maximum output, a Jinwu 330 reactor can even provide stable energy output for at least half a month for a super large city with a population of 50 million!"
"Whew..." After listening to what Su Heng said, Qian Zhizong and the other three couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air.
The expression of shock on their faces was completely unmasked.
A city with a population of 50 million is equivalent to the population of a small country. It's an extremely large and densely populated urban area.
Long Village has developed to this point, and so far, there hasn't been a city of this size in the village.
And that includes the floating population as well!
If only counting the permanent population, then the current several first-tier cities in Long Village would only reach this standard!
Not only in Long Village, but even in the whole world, no such super city of this scale can be found!
Now, Su Heng told them that the energy output of a small Jinwu 330 controlled nuclear fusion reactor could meet the energy needs of a city with a population of 50 million!
This is simply shocking!
Even though the person saying this was Su Heng, they still found it hard to believe.
As the few were in shock, Su Heng's voice echoed again:
"However, the cost of doing this is that the lifespan of Jinwu 330 will sharply decrease. According to my design standards, the normal lifespan of Jinwu 330 is sixty years. However, if it maintains maximum output for half a month, its lifespan will drop to twenty years. If it maintains maximum output for more than one month, Jinwu 330 will be scrapped directly!"
Su Heng's words carried a trace of regret.
It seems to be disappointed with the immaturity of its own technology.
However, after hearing what Su Heng said, Qian Zhizong and the other three couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Although, as Su Heng explained, maintaining maximum output for half a month would reduce the lifespan of Jinwu 330 to twenty years, and it would be scrapped after a month of continuous maximum output,
But that's extreme output!
Just like a fighter jet's engine in afterburner mode, which aircraft would continuously operate the afterburner to let the engine always overclock output?
Which engine can withstand continuous overclocked output for a long time?
Just like the old stainless steel plane of the previous Old North Bear, which was chased by the Black and White Eagle's missiles, and although it managed to shake off the pursuit of the missiles, after returning, the plane's engine was directly scrapped!
If it wasn't an emergency situation, who would do that?
As Su Heng said, under normal use, the lifespan of Jinwu 330 is sixty years!
