v2 Chapter 1524: something big

When the richest man in the United States was inspecting various branches in the United States, He Xiaobo, who was far away in the Soviet Union, called; the accident happened at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, and the current situation is unknown.

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan knew that he still couldn't change history, and what should have happened still happened. Although it will be delayed, it will never disappear. Some things are by no means within the reach of human beings, at least it is difficult for mortals to change history. Even if it will be delayed, what should happen will still happen!

The Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant Accident; or simply "Chernobyl Incident", was a nuclear reactor accident that occurred at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Soviet Union. The accident is considered the worst nuclear power accident in history and the first catastrophic accident to be rated as a Level 7 event by the International Nuclear Event Scale. The entire city of Pripyat was therefore abandoned.

The fourth reactor of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant near Pripyat exploded. Successive explosions sparked fires and released large amounts of high-energy radiation into the atmosphere, which covered a large area. The radiation dose released by this disaster was more than 400 times that of the atomic bomb that exploded on Hiroshima during World War II; the economic losses exceeded 100 billion US dollars, and even accelerated the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

Officials have two conflicting explanations for the cause of the accident. The first is to completely shift the blame for the accident to the nuclear power plant operator. The second is that the accident was caused by a design flaw in the pressure-tube graphite-moderated boiling water reactor, especially the design of the control rods. The investigative teams on both sides were lobbied by various parties, including the reactor designers, Chernobyl staff and the government.

But now is not the time to be concerned about it, and Moscow executives may not yet know the seriousness of the matter. But as someone who has come here, he is very clear.

At this moment, I have not continued to inspect the company's mood. After all, I know how serious the consequences of this nuclear leak will be. But now I don't dare to remind the Soviets, otherwise the explanation will be different, and people will suspect that you have ulterior motives. Even if you thanked you at the time, you will inevitably wonder in hindsight whether the Black Cloud Group planted spies inside the Soviet nuclear power plant.

During the Cold War, this kind of thing; Jedi can't stick to it, otherwise it's easy to get burned.

The Soviets cannot be told, but there are some remedies.

In fact, in 1985, the preparations have been started intentionally or unintentionally. After all, the Soviet Union can reduce some damage and reduce casualties, and it can still be done.

Bao Zixuan can only let He Xiaobo pay close attention to the development of the situation. After all, he has not dared to leak any news to Moscow. No matter how good the relationship with Little Ustinov is, it should not be too direct when it comes to such national interests. .

But I also know that the United States can not stay. And many materials are in Fucaira. The top nuclear radiation protection suits ordered from the Soviet Union in the name of worrying about a nuclear attack can finally come in handy at this moment.

In fact, after the first Fujia war, Bao Zixuan specially ordered a batch of the world's highest-level nuclear protective suits from the Soviet Union. And not only in the Soviet Union, but also in the United States ordered a large number. At that time, the two countries didn't think much about it, they just thought that this kid was worried about being hit by a nuclear attack and was prepared for nothing.

And this kind of nuclear protective clothing itself is not an offensive weapon. Except for really hostile countries, they will normally be exported. It's just that Bao Zixuan ordered a very high level, and the quantity was just a little more. But considering that people are so rich, it is quite normal to be self-willed.

In fact, neither the United States nor the Soviet Union knew that he was preparing for the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.

Did not make any layovers in the US and flew directly from Fucaira. If the Soviet Union needs it, it can mobilize materials and transport it from Fucaira as soon as possible. And the distance is not far, it only takes 6 hours for a large cargo plane to arrive.

The Americans, of course, knew that the Soviet nuclear power plant had leaked, but they didn't care. After all, even Moscow doesn't know the level of danger. No matter how powerful the CIA is, it will take time to understand the whole story.

Bao Zixuan immediately made a decision to evacuate all the staff at the tuyere of the nuclear power plant. In fact, at this stage, in addition to the Nikolayev Shipyard, there are not many people in the Black Cloud Group or Fucaira in the past in Europe. It cannot be said that there is no risk at all, only relatively low.

I don't know why the boss issued such an order, the European staff immediately began to evacuate. In Heiyun Group or Fucaira! Bao Zixuan is an absolute authority, and his orders must be resolutely implemented.

Commands do not need them to understand, as long as they are executed.

Staff at the fk nuclear power plant in Sweden, which is about 1,100 kilometers away from Chernobyl, just went to work and found a lot of abnormal radiation particles stuck to their clothes. According to Swedish research, it was found that the radiation did not come from a local nuclear power plant; they suspected that something was wrong with the Soviet nuclear power plant. At that time, Sweden had made inquiries to the Soviet Union through diplomatic channels, but it was not confirmed.

This made them very puzzled, but the Swedes still took measures seriously; after all, there are so many radiation particles in the air, which is not a small thing.

Moscow did not reply, but France and Italy began to take it seriously after they received reports from Sweden about the presence of nuclear radiation particles in the air.

After all, it is so close to Lao Maozi, even if it is not a nuclear power plant problem, it may be a problem with some new weapon being tested. During the Cold War, these were normal. Although they were all sneaky experiments before, but nuclear weapons; how easy it is to control, it is better to be careful.

France and Italy have banned some crops from eating, arguably causing a degree of panic.

At this time, Moscow executives also felt that something was wrong, and immediately sent a working group to the Chernobyl nuclear power plant to check the situation on the spot. Other countries in Europe have already informed the Soviet Union through diplomatic channels; even if the other party deliberately seeks trouble, it will not joke about nuclear radiation.

European countries not only inquired about the situation with the Soviet Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but also reported the phenomenon of excessive nuclear radiation to the International Atomic Energy Agency. The Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Blix, was invited by the Soviet government to take a helicopter to inspect the situation of the nuclear power plant from an altitude of 800 meters.

Originally, there was nothing to do with Little Ustinov, but the high-level Moscow officials asked him to sit on the spot and command; so he could only bite the bullet. Only when the country is in trouble can it reflect the important value of a person.

Soviet nuclear energy experts reported to Ustinov and Blix: "According to the current situation, it is more serious than we thought."

"At the time of the accident, Reactor No. 4 was scheduled to be shut down for regular maintenance and testing, and to take the opportunity to test the reactor's turbine generator capability - to check that there is still sufficient power to supply the reactor safely in the event of a loss of power. system."

"The reactor is designed with a pair of diesel generators as a backup power supply, but the diesel generators cannot be started instantaneously. At this time, the reactor will use a rotating turbine as an energy source, and the turbine will be separated from the reactor and rotate under its own inertia. Whether the turbine can adequately supply energy to the water pump during the power reduction phase when the diesel generator has not yet started. This type of test has been performed successfully in other units earlier, but with unsatisfactory results.”

"When the energy output has fallen below the specified minimum engineers chose to remove the reactor's control rods, leaving 6 of the 211 control rods in place to speed up the rate of reactor operation. Safety regulations require a minimum of The number was 30, but the operator, who considered himself extremely experienced, was convinced that six levers would be enough, which led to this tragedy."

"Due to the control rod insertion mechanism and design structure, the bottom end of the control rod is designed with graphite; the instant the graphite contacts the water coolant, the reaction rate of the reactor increases. The instantaneous increase in power causes the pipe to deform, and the control rod is inserted into the pipe one-third of the way. Got stuck; couldn't effectively stop the reaction."

"The radioactive contaminants then entered the atmosphere following the rupture of the main pressure vessel in a steam explosion, and oxygen flowed in and combined with the extremely hot reactor fuel and graphite moderators - causing a graphite fire. The fire allowed the radioactive material to spread and contaminate a wider area. ."

Little Ustinov didn't understand what he meant, but Blix was a top expert in nuclear energy. Immediately know the seriousness of the matter, combined with the specific situation just seen on the plane; if it is not dealt with in time, the consequences are simply unimaginable.
