You Crush Nuclear Bombs with Your Bare Hands, and You Call This a Left-Behind Child?

A reporter from the Beautiful Nation visits a poor mountain village to publish a smear piece and spots an eight-year-old boy.

Reporter: "You're one of those left-behind children, right? Why aren't you studying? What are you doing?"

Jiang Chen: "I'm bored, so I'm making a nuclear reactor for fun."

Beautiful Nation netizens mock him: "Sure, keep bragging! You'd be more likely to play with mud!"

The reporter teases him: "You can build a nuclear fission reactor? Then can you make a nuclear bomb with your bare hands, too?"

Jiang Chen: "If you want one, I can make you one and deliver it to your door. But my reactor uses controlled nuclear fusion!"

Experts are shocked: "Impossible! There are too many technical bottlenecks that can't be overcome."

Reporter: "There are no heat-resistant materials in the world that can withstand nuclear fusion."

Jiang Chen: "Look into new nanomaterials."

Reporter: "To handle that much computation, your computer server would have to be as big as a basketball court."

Jiang Chen: "Look into photonic computers."

Reporter: "I don't believe you. Prove it with an experiment."

Jiang Chen: "Fine! You pay the electricity bill, and I'll do it."
