As the birthplace of China's controllable nuclear fusion project, the Southwestern Institute of Physics had a pivotal influence in China's controllable nuclear fusion field.
Not only did they have a large tokamak device with a divertor called the HL-2A, but it also played a pivotal role in propelling China's participation in the ITER project.
Pan Changhong witnessed all of this happening; he was one of China's controllable nuclear fusion veterans.
Even though he had retired for quite a while, he never stopped caring about China's controllable nuclear fusion development.
Because of this, when Lu Zhou gave him the invitation, he agreed without hesitation.
In a country with 1.4 billion people, energy problems were always the top priority.
If the energy problem could be solved, many other problems would be solved as well.
