Chapter 86 Unconditional Support
Faced with doubts, in order to obtain support from relevant leaders for the construction of new standards laboratories and eliminate their doubts, Fang Hanmin explained the necessity and importance of building standards laboratories from several aspects, and ensured that there would be no waste.
First of all, the near-term failure palladium carbon catalyst recovery test has extremely high requirements for the test conditions.
In addition, the generic drug development carried out later not only had a long process flow, but also had quite complex process conditions and high control accuracy, which was impossible for ordinary laboratories to meet the requirements at all.
Third, according to the plan, in the near future, Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory will enter the field of biopharmaceuticals, and automatic disinfection and sterilization are the basic requirements of the laboratory.
Finally, as for the further goal, it will involve new drug creation and high-throughput drug screening, and the requirements for laboratories will be higher. By then, new laboratories with higher standards may have to be built.
Even with the technical authority of Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory, Lao Wang and Lao Xia only had a slight understanding of Fang Hanmin's explanation, but Fang Hanmin clearly stated the necessity of building a standard laboratory, and everyone present understood this.
Deputy Director Wang has no objection to the necessity of building a new standard laboratory, but he does not understand why the development of new products and new technologies should be in a direction that is increasingly difficult? "Comrade Hanmin, have you analyzed the relationship between the difficulty of development and the final profit when considering the development of new technologies and new products?"
From a technical perspective, although this question is a bit naive, it can link the difficulty of development with the final income, which shows that Lao Wang has thought about it seriously. At least he knows that the more difficult the development is, the higher the experimental conditions required and the more funds it invests. This may be a question that Lao Wang has wanted to ask long ago.
Fang Hanmin was particularly disgusted with the unconscious and irresponsible and nonsense. Although Lao Wang's question seemed a bit ridiculous, Fang Hanmin believed that after careful consideration, he would be more likely to accept this kind of problem as long as he explained the doubts clearly.
Fang Hanmin looked at the other party, "The issue that Director Wang is concerned about is actually the input-output in the process of technology development. That's right, in basic research, the benefits of direct output can almost be ignored, but application development is a factor that must be considered, otherwise, technology development will have no meaning."
After a slight pause, Fang Hanmin changed the subject, "However, almost all people engaged in the development of new technologies and new products must analyze and compare the new technologies and products they are about to develop with the original technologies and products before formally starting their work. In terms of the pharmaceutical industry, new technologies are either more reasonable in technology and have lower production costs than the original technologies, or have fatal defects in the original technologies; new products are either more effective or have less side effects. Of course, the selling price will generally be higher."
"Yes, only when the new technologies, new processes and new products developed are competitive can technological development be meaningful, and only by doing this can technological progress be motivated." It seems that chief engineer Lao Xia has much better understanding of this issue than Deputy Director Wang.
"Yes, if the efficacy of developing a new drug is not as good as that of an old product, such technology development is meaningless."
"The new process developed is more expensive than the old process, and such a technology cannot be implemented." ...
Everyone talked about it, and the atmosphere at the venue was much more lively than before.
Deputy Director Liang, who is in charge of finance, has not spoken. Seeing that the atmosphere became lively, he asked a more serious question, "Comrade Hanmin, you just said that you would not cause waste. It should include two meanings, right? One is the effective use of the laboratory, and the other is the construction funds. What I want to know is, how do you ensure that the construction funds are used reasonably and efficiently?"
The issue of using funds was beyond Fang Hanmin's expectations. He thought for a moment, and then said calmly: "After preliminary considerations, I have three ideas. First, set up a three-person temporary group, composed of me, the head of the finance section and a grassroots technician, to review the rationality of the use of each fund that reaches a certain amount; Second, the construction funds are completely spent by the finance department, and the technical department does not have any contact with the funds; Third, after the laboratory is completed, please send someone to audit all expenditures before the financial settlement."
"Okay, I agree with this approach. During the laboratory construction process, I don't save a penny of what I should spend, and I don't waste a penny of what I should spend. Every expenditure must be spent clearly." Lao Liang had almost no interaction with Fang Hanmin at work. Through this incident, he looked at this young man with admiration.
After sufficient exchanges and discussions, the team members basically reached a consensus on the construction of a new standard laboratory, but in terms of the construction period, it is better to say that the time was not ripe beforehand, and even if the report was made in advance, it would not be possible to obtain approval from the factory.
If the laboratory is carried out according to the plan, from construction, decoration to complete facilities, it will take two years to be officially put into use. The recycling and treatment test of failed palladium carbon catalysts will be carried out at the latest in October of that year, and the time difference is too far!
Seeing Fang Hanmin's very anxious look, Director Yuan suggested: "Relatively speaking, the recycling and treatment test of waste catalysts is the most urgent and the experimental conditions are required. It is better to divide the laboratory construction into two phases of projects. The part with lower construction standards of the first phase project is easier to decorate and facilities. I think the construction cycle of the first phase project should be relatively short. If you seize the time to construct, it should be put into use in October."
Fang Hanmin seemed to be inspired, "Yes, build the lower standard parts in two phases, first use the shortest time to build the lower standard parts without delaying use. The remaining high standard parts will be built later. Some supporting facilities of high standard laboratories may not be solved at present in China, and they may need to be imported."
"That's it. Hanmin, go back and prepare a specific implementation plan for laboratory construction, including funding budget, funding requirements and time limits at each step, so that funds can be arranged at that time." ...
In order to prepare a specific implementation plan, we must first determine the construction plan of the laboratory. When we return to the technical department, Fang Hanmin immediately summoned Guo Peng and Wan Cheng to his office and asked when we met: "What are you thinking about? Have you two selected the construction plan?"
"Just selected."
"Sit down and tell me how you chose."
The two assistants stated their respective plans and reasons, but what Fang Hanmin did not expect was that they chose a plan to build according to general standards.
A time traveler heard a saying in his previous life that poverty limits your imagination. He has only now realized that being able to eat a full meal while a person is unable to fill his stomach may be the greatest ideal, so how dare he have other extravagant expectations?
Indeed, in Guo Peng and Wan Cheng's view, Hongxing Pharmaceutical Factory did not have a regular laboratory at all. If the factory could approve the construction of a standard laboratory, even if it was built according to the minimum standards, it would be satisfactory. They would not even think about the higher requirements.
Fang Hanmin did not comment on the choices of the two assistants. He directly gave his own choice, "Look at how about this plan?"
Guo Peng and Wan Cheng took it over and looked at it. They couldn't believe it, "Section Chief, are you sure you want to build such a high-standard laboratory?"
"What, do you think it shouldn't?"
"Of course, it should be, it should be! The problem is that building such a high standard laboratory has a considerable investment! Can the factory agree? "
"I just came back from the meeting. Let me tell you that the factory leadership team has made a decision and agreed to the technical department to build a high-standard laboratory in stages!"
"Is that true?" The two assistants looked at Fang Hanmin in surprise, "Section Chief, how did you convince the factory leaders?"
"At the factory-level leadership team meeting, I told the leaders about the necessity and importance of building high-standard laboratories. Although I had different opinions, the leaders still knew the overall situation and took the general idea. The key is that they received strong support from Director Yuan."
"Since the factory agrees to build a new laboratory, why is it divided into two phases of construction? How great is it to be built at one time!"
"The installation construction is still a solution that Director Yuan came up with for us. Think about it, the recycling and treatment test of failed palladium carbon catalysts will be carried out in October this year. If the overall progress is carried out, from construction to decoration, and to complete auxiliary facilities, it will take at least two years for the laboratory to be put into use, but the recycling and treatment test of waste catalysts cannot be waited for that long. In order not to delay the development of the test, Director Yuan suggested that the time be taken to build the lower-standard part first, and then the high-standard part will be built later."
"Oh, this is a good idea."
"The specific construction plan of the laboratory is as follows. What I want to tell you is that I will write an implementation plan to Director Yuan immediately, and it will be approved soon, and the construction work will be carried out. You two are responsible for the laboratory construction. As Party A's representatives, we must urge Party B to seize the time and try our best to complete the first phase of the project as soon as possible."
......
Fang Hanmin's work was almost unconditional support from Director Yuan. He put the laboratory construction implementation plan in front of Director Yuan. Old Yuan signed the letter without even looking at it, and reminded him: "You copy two copies of this plan, one for me, and one for the deputy factory director in charge of infrastructure, and ask him to organize construction immediately, and the other for the deputy factory director in charge of finance, and ask him to prepare funds. I'll say hello to them and let them pay attention."
With Director Yuan's urge, all departments acted vigorously and three days later, the infrastructure and finance departments took action separately. On Fang Hanmin's side, he handed over the specific work to the assistants of Guo Peng and Wan Cheng. Unless there is a major issue, he will basically not ask about general affairs.
Xu Hui and Jiang Guoxin are responsible for the process transformation of sulfonamide drugs in the workshop. According to Fang Hanmin's arrangement, they first became familiar with the original process route and compared it with the new process given by Fang Hanmin. However, they had some questions and needed to communicate with Fang Hanmin.
He came to Fang Hanmin's office with a large stack of drawings, "Section Chief, do you have time? We have a few questions and want to ask you for advice."
"You sit down and talk. Don't ask for advice. Didn't I say that if you have any questions, you can communicate at any time." Xu Hui and Jiang Guoxin were a few years older than Fang Hanmin. They usually contact each other and respect each other.
Xu Hui unfolded the drawings on the table, and Jiang Guoxin took the new process technical information given by Fang Hanmin. "Section Chief, through comparison and analysis, if the requirements of the new process are followed, the main equipment of the original production line can be retained, but the pipelines must be re-arranged, and the renovation process will be quite a workload!"
"You remember that for the production line of a workshop, what we need to do is to transform the process rather than improve it, and that is not a simple repair."
