Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Hardcore UP Master Goes Live
```html
In the video, He Xingzhou was modifying a pressure cooker.
He explained as he worked, "Now we are making some necessary modifications to a stainless steel pressure cooker (referred to as pressure cooker one), drilling several round holes in the lid for the insertion of control rods." "Then, use two plastic tubes to connect the pressure cooker to the radiator, forming a closed loop, and install a small water pump on the outlet pipe. Note, this constitutes the cooling system."
As he spoke and operated, even though Little Mu couldn't quite understand, *there was a feeling of impressive mystery*.
He Xingzhou continued, "Next, we will place the radiator inside another pressure cooker (referred to as pressure cooker two), fix it in the middle, and use two plastic tubes—one to connect the pressure cooker to the tap water pipe, and another with one end connected to pressure cooker two and the other end aimed at the blades of an electric fan. This way, this miniature nuclear reactor is generated."
"We also need to install a motor and an electrical energy detection device to observe the energy generation situation of the nuclear reactor. Given that the nuclear fuel is too little, I directly used the energy reserve device from the laboratory as the testing instrument."
Little Mu heard every word clearly, but when He Xingzhou was operating, he completely didn't understand, just seeing the two pressure cookers continuously changing under his operation. By the end of the video, it seemed to become a somewhat advanced experimental apparatus!
"That's it for this video, in the next episode we will make a simple radiation shielding system and extract nuclear fuel rods to perform a miniature nuclear fission reaction." The video ended there.
After watching the entire process, a thought suddenly arose in Little Mu's mind, *could this video be real?*
*Is this UP主 (video content creator) really making a nuclear reactor? Not just a clickbait?*
"Ant, take a look at this, is this real?" Little Mu called his colleague over to watch.
The colleague watched both episodes at double speed, wearing a look of amazement, and said, "Listening to his various explanations, it feels like he's not joking!"
"It seems like he's really making a nuclear reactor! How could such a genius exist?"
Both video review editors were astonished. As editors, they watched countless videos every day, what content hadn't they seen?
But a video tutorial on making a nuclear reactor online was something they were witnessing for the first time!
Ant immediately said, "It looks like his video has three episodes, and the third episode should be conducting a nuclear fission experiment! This UP主 is too amazing. I have a feeling that if his experiment succeeds, it's definitely going viral!"
"Yes, I think so too!" Little Mu agreed, saying, "Even if his experiment doesn't succeed, it will probably get a lot of views. I'll promote it a bit first, and see the results."
He immediately arranged a small site promotion for He Xingzhou's video so users had the opportunity to see it while browsing videos.
With B-station as a popular video site on the internet, many users loved to browse videos here for entertainment or leisure.
In the science knowledge channel, He Xingzhou's video was placed in a new video showcase area.
His title was very eye-catching, "College Student Makes Homemade Nuclear Reactor."
Soon, someone noticed this video. The user "Red Comet" was a senior technology enthusiast.
He browsed videos in this section every day, but since he had watched so many, even those videos by top UP主 with millions of followers had worn out his interest, so he preferred watching videos by newcomers.
He Xingzhou's video caught his attention, "A college student, and making a homemade nuclear reactor? Why don't you just fly to the sky?"
Seeing the video title, Red Comet's first reaction was it was a clickbait, this guy was definitely fishing for clicks.
"This sort of clickbait is really annoying! Damn self-media has invaded B-station, let me vent first!" Red Comet opened the video not for anything else but to rant at the UP主.
As someone who maintained integrity while criticizing, Red Comet wouldn't just rant randomly but would watch and then rant.
However, just a minute in, his eyebrows gradually furrowed.
This video blogger, seemed to have some substance!
When he saw the extraction of americium, Red Comet was shocked, "It looks like the UP主 is playing for real!"
After watching the first episode, Red Comet swiftly clicked on the second episode. When he saw He Xingzhou using everyday materials to make a miniature nuclear reactor container, he was truly shocked!
Red Comet himself was a researcher and knew a bit about nuclear physics. He vouched with his own knowledge, everything He Xingzhou said was true, and his experimental ideas and processes were very meticulous, without any loopholes.
"He really is making a nuclear reactor!" Red Comet couldn't help but shout, "Where's the third episode? Not updated yet?"
"A college student, actually going to make a homemade nuclear reactor? What was I doing in college? Playing games, dating, preparing for exams?"
"*I have to admit, I definitely couldn't do it!*"
Red Comet originally intended to rant a bit, but when he sent his comment, he wrote, "I've watched both episodes, originally thought it was clickbait, but found out it's real! The UP主 is impressive, looking forward to the next episode!"
He even specifically liked and tipped the video to support it.
Red Comet was just one of many who were watching He Xingzhou's videos simultaneously, and other users also saw this video.
Like Red Comet, everyone initially thought it was clickbait, but as they watched further, they realized something was off, this UP主 seemed about to finish building a nuclear reactor.
In the new video recommendations, the view count on He Xingzhou's video started to climb, and the number of comments was consistently increasing.
"Awesome, my brother!"
"This is too hardcore! I'm blown away, the UP主 is really making a nuclear reactor!"
"The video warned me imitation has risks, how am I supposed to imitate this? (dog head)"
"6666! This is the strongest UP主 I've seen on B-station, while others are still making secret recipe burgers, this one is already making a nuclear reactor!"
"Where's the third episode, creator quickly update, even the village donkey wouldn't dare rest like this!"
"Also asking for the third episode, I want to see what the nuclear reactor running looks like!"
...
He Xingzhou was still unaware that his video, due to a small recommendation, had already attracted a lot of attention from netizens and had advanced to a more popular video recommendation area.
At that time, he was preparing for the final experiment.
Because it was a nuclear experiment and there were risks involved, before proceeding, he first needed to contact Zhang Boyan to agree on a time.
Additionally, He Xingzhou needed to purchase several mutated fish for conducting the Zerg gene activation experiment.
Recently, it seemed there were quite a number of mutated fish captured from the ocean, and when He Xingzhou searched online, he found several sellers.
They were charging quite a price, claiming that some enthusiasts were collecting these mutant creatures, so even the most ordinary mutated fish cost between three to five thousand.
