1. A method for suppressing corrosion of a carbon steel member, comprising the steps of:forming a nickel metal film on a surface of the carbon steel member in a nuclear power plant;forming a nickel ferrite film on a surface of the nickel metal film; andafter the formation of the nickel ferrite film, transforming the nickel metal film into a nickel ferrite film. 2. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 1, wherein the step of forming the nickel metal film is performed by exposing the surface of the carbon steel member to a film forming liquid containing nickel ions, whose pH is adjusted to a value in a range between 4.0 and 9.0. 3. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 1, wherein the step of forming the nickel metal film is performed by exposing the surface of the carbon steel member to a film forming liquid containing nickel ions and iron (II) ions, whose pH is adjusted to a value in a range between 4.0 and 9.0. 4. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 2, wherein the film forming liquid contains formic acid. 5. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 1, wherein the step of forming the nickel ferrite film is performed by exposing the surface of the nickel metal film to a film forming liquid including a first agent containing iron (II) ions, a second agent containing nickel ions, and a third agent for oxidizing the iron (II) ions, whose pH is adjusted by addition of a pH adjustment agent to a value within a range between 5.5 and 9.0. 6. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 1, wherein the steps of forming the nickel metal film and forming the nickel ferrite film on the surface of the nickel metal film are performed in a period when operation of the plant is being shut down. 7. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 6, wherein the step of transforming the nickel metal film into the nickel ferrite film is performed in the period when the operation of the plant is being shut down. 8. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 1, wherein the step of transforming the nickel metal film into the nickel ferrite film is performed by exposing a surface of the nickel ferrite film formed on the nickel metal film to water containing dissolved-oxygen at 150° C. or above. 9. A suppression method for suppressing corrosion of a carbon steel member, comprising the steps of:forming a nickel metal film on a surface of the carbon steel member in a nuclear power plant;forming a nickel ferrite film on a surface of the nickel metal film; andafter the formation of the nickel ferrite film, transforming the nickel metal film into a nickel ferrite film,wherein the steps of forming the nickel metal film and forming the nickel ferrite film on the surface of the nickel metal film are performed in a period when operation of the plant is being shut down, and the step of transforming the nickel metal film into the nickel ferrite film is performed when the plant is in operation. 10. The method for suppressing corrosion of the carbon steel member according to claim 9, wherein the step of forming the nickel metal film is performed by exposing the surface of the carbon steel member to a film forming liquid containing nickel ions, whose pH is adjusted to a value in a range between 4.0 and 9.0. 11.
