Chen Zong can understand everyone's thoughts. In fact, if he were not the director of the superconducting materials research center, he would not care about businessmen like Qin Hai. However, he understands that Qin Hai's happiness and anger will directly affect
Daqin Group allocates funds to the research center, and these funds are the key to whether the seventy or eighty people in their group can continue to engage in scientific research and produce results. Not to mention that Qin Hai always respects him very much and has never acted like a big boss.
, even if Qin Hai wants to act like a big star, he can only accept it politely. Who really has the qualifications to show off?
"Everyone, we are convening this meeting today to discuss a major event that is closely related to the future development of our research center. I hope everyone will take it seriously," Chen Zongze said.
Hearing this, many people's expressions became serious. Even Zhang Shengying, who was reading the information, looked up. However, she immediately lowered her head and continued reading the document in her hand. In her mind
No matter what major events are closely related to her, she has nothing to do with her. She has already had two papers accepted by top foreign journals, which means that her academic status at Beijing University will be greatly improved. What else will affect her?
What about on your body?
"As you all know, in the past six months, our research center has achieved fruitful results in research on yttrium barium copper oxide superconductors, and has mastered laboratory preparation techniques for several materials. Just now, Mr. Qin and I discussed it and decided
It is necessary to complete the research on the industrial preparation process of these materials as soon as possible so that they can meet the requirements of commercial application. Specifically, it is necessary to realize the industrial preparation of yttrium barium copper oxide powder, blocks, thin films, thick films, wires and strips.
, what do you think about this?" Chen Zongze continued.
"Industrial preparation?" Professor Du Xiangwang frowned and said, "Old Chen, this is not difficult, right? The materials you mentioned have been reported on industrial preparation abroad. We just need to follow other people's ideas and try it.
Just try it.”
Another professor Cao Guolin also said: "Lao Du is right. For example, the preparation of yttrium barium copper oxygen powder, the introductions I have read include solution precipitation method, sol-gel method, plasma spraying method, and freeze-drying method.
, the spray drying method can prepare shapes including isometric bodies and spheres. I once asked students to do a research review in this regard."
"Teacher Cao, have you ever compared the efficiency of these methods? There are also issues such as preparation costs. Our goal is to achieve mass production of materials. For example, for powder materials, we need to achieve at least an annual output of 100 tons.
"Qin Hai sat next to Chen Zongze and said to Cao Guolin in a deep voice.
Cao Guolin had met Qin Hai before, and briefly discussed several academic issues in the direction of superconductivity with Qin Hai. He had a good impression of this scholar-type chairman. Hearing Qin Hai's question, he smiled
He shook his head and said: "We have not done any research to reach mass production scale. The preparation in our laboratory is only on a scale of several kilograms. This is enough for our experiments."
"So, if I want to entrust Mr. Cao's team to solve the problem of mass production of powder materials, how long do you estimate it will take?" Qin Hai continued to ask.
Cao Guolin was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Well... I'm afraid I don't have time. The teachers and students in our team are very busy, so I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to help."
"Old Cao, take some time to do this research. This is also the task of our research center." Chen Zongze advised. Cao Guolin's answer did not exceed Chen Zongze's expectations at all. He had known it for a long time.
.No one is interested in conducting applied research.
Cao Guolin was not moved by Chen Zongze's warm words. He said resolutely: "Teacher Chen, you know the topic we are doing. Now is a very critical time. People in my team are so busy that they can't even sleep."
I don’t have any time, so how can I have spare time to engage in industrial preparation.”
Hearing this, Qin Hai felt a little angry but laughed. He asked lightly: "Teacher Cao, when do you think your team will be finished?"
"It's hard to say." Cao Guolin didn't notice the mystery in the words between Chen Zongze and Qin Hai, or in other words, he didn't care about the mystery at all. The only thing that can control him in the world is thesis, and everything else is
It's a floating cloud.
"Our group now has three good ideas, each of which can produce a high-level article. To complete these articles, we need to do hundreds of experiments, and I'm afraid we may not be able to complete them by the first half of next year. This
Regardless of any unexpected discoveries during the experiment, if there are some unexpected surprises, then let alone next year, even the year after next, we will not have enough time." Cao Guolin said to Qin Hai confidently.
Qin Hai said: "But, Mr. Cao, applied research is also the task of our research center. I have told everyone this when the center was established. I fully support everyone doing theoretical research. But applied research cannot be neglected.
, can you please ask Mr. Cao to divide your team into two, one part of the people will continue to work on your three ideas, and the other part of the people will complete the industrial preparation of powder materials before March next year."
"This is impossible." Cao Guolin flatly refused. Just kidding, these are three heavyweight articles. If they can be published, Cao Guolin will suddenly become a top-ranked expert in the field of superconductivity in China, and will also be recognized internationally.
It has considerable influence. If you don't write articles like this and engage in sloppy industrial preparation, isn't this a sign of being out of your mind?
"If that's the case, then I have to go to the Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Metallurgy to find someone to do it," Qin Hai said.
"Yes, yes, there are a few people there who do a good job." Cao Guolin agreed with a smile.
Qin Hai stretched out his hand and said, "In that case, Teacher Cao, please hand over the key to the laboratory."
"What do you mean?" Cao Guolin's smile suddenly froze on his face. Not only him, Zhang Shengying, Du Xiangwang and others were also stunned. They all looked at Qin Hai with wide eyes, wondering what he wanted to do.
Qin Hai smiled slightly and said: "I want to invite experts from the Academy of Sciences to do research. Of course, there must be a laboratory. You can't just let people do process development empty-handed, right?"
"What about our group's experiment?" Cao Guolin asked stupidly.
Qin Haidao: "Doesn't Mr. Cao also have a laboratory in the Department of Physics? You can go back there and continue your research."
Cao Guolin said with a look of displeasure: "Mr. Qin, are you kidding? How can the equipment of our old laboratory in the Department of Physics compare with that of the research center? For our several studies, the equipment left in the research center cannot be carried out at all.
Don’t force yourself to make things difficult for others.”
Qin Hai said calmly: "Since Teacher Cao knows that the equipment of the research center is the basis for supporting our continued research, why are you not willing to spend some time to make a contribution to the research center? Yttrium barium copper oxygen powder is more valuable than gold.
If the problem of industrial preparation can be solved one day earlier, economic benefits can be obtained one day earlier, and thus more money can be made to help everyone do experiments. Teacher Cao should be able to understand this, right?"
"Gold? Mr. Qin, you only know that gold is valuable, but do you know the value of one of our high-level articles?" Zhang Shengying understood Qin Hai's words. She looked at Qin Hai coldly and asked.
Qin Hai looked at her and said contemptuously: "Article? I don't see any value in it."
"Haha, since that's the case, then we have nothing to say. Teacher Chen, please explain to Mr. Qin what the impact factor is, and also explain the impact of the dozen or so articles recently published by our center.
Factor." Zhang Shengying said to Chen Zongze in a proud tone.
Chen Zongze opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Qin Hai. Qin Hai glanced at everyone in the audience, and then said:
"Teacher Zhang wants to explain to me what the impact factor is, but I don't think it's necessary. I, Qin Hai, am not so ignorant that I don't understand this. However, I want to tell everyone that we are a poor country. How poor are we?
I think everyone knows this. As Mr. Cao said just now, the laboratory of Beijing University is much worse than the research center. It can be said that without this research center, all the impact factors and high-level articles that everyone talks about would be useless.
It is a castle in the air and cannot exist at all.
But where did the research center come from? Everyone does experiments here every day. Don’t you know that these experimental equipment and experimental raw materials are piled up with money? You only care about high-level articles, but these high-level articles can give you
In exchange for funds?
Everyone is engaged in superconducting materials. You should know that in terms of superconducting research, China is in the first echelon in the world. This is something to be proud of. But how much wealth has your research created for the country?
Have you ever calculated? The scientific research results of other countries can be quickly converted into wealth, and this wealth can in turn support further scientific research. As for us, apart from these beautiful-looking impact factors, what contribution does this research have to the country?
"
"Science knows no borders. Although our research results have not been applied domestically, they can be applied internationally, which is enough." Zhang Shengying retorted.
"Science without borders?" Qin Hai smiled, "Teacher Zhang, you take the salary paid to you by the Chinese government and the research funds provided by me, a Chinese businessman, just to develop some science without borders? Since it is borderless science,
National borders, then your research should be funded by the U.S. government. Our funds have national borders and we are not interested in funding borderless research."
Hearing Qin Hai say this, Zhang Shengying's face suddenly turned red. Since becoming an expert, no one has dared to speak to her like this. She asked angrily: "Mr. Qin, what do you mean by this?
Do you think you are great because of how much money you have?" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
