Chapter five hundred and six exchange technology for dollars
Qin Hai made a lot of money in the domestic market by using imported steel, but there were also a lot of troubles in the aftermath. **Importing 10 million tons of steel cost nearly 4 billion US dollars in foreign exchange. These foreign exchanges could not be earned in RMB by Qin Hai.
To repay. Although other people saw the price difference between imported steel and domestic steel, they were unable to do such reselling precisely because of foreign exchange restrictions. To put it bluntly, in that era, if you could
To get foreign exchange, you can make a lot of money by reselling not only steel, but also any kind of commodity.
In front of Wang Hongsheng, Qin Hai did not explain how he would solve the problem of repaying the foreign exchange loan. The steel price had stabilized and some finishing work was being carried out in an orderly manner. Qin Hai said goodbye to Wang Hongsheng and returned to Anhe.
"Do you have the confidence to earn US$4 billion?"
In the large conference room of Anhe Institute of Materials Science, Qin Hai faced a room full of scientists and proposed the task with a smile.
In that era, China's main export commodities were nothing more than two categories: primary products and labor-intensive industrial products. The former refers to agricultural products, mineral raw materials, etc., while the latter is familiar clothing, shoes and hats, assembly and processing
Products. At that time, China had not yet been labeled the world's factory. The scale of China's export processing industry was still relatively small, and its ability to earn foreign exchange was insufficient. Its foreign trade was in deficit every year, and it could only make up for the difference by borrowing foreign debt.
Qin Hai borrowed 4 billion in seller's credit abroad to import steel. Part of the money was borrowed with rare earths as collateral. This was also a helpless move out of desperation. Of course, it also involved digging holes for Chunshan Company.
The intention was included. Now that the steel market matters have been settled, Qin Hai was free to start arranging the repayment of debts.
He does not plan to exchange precious mineral resources for foreign exchange. That is selling the wealth of future generations. As a time traveler from the 21st century, this is extremely shameful. His plan is to use the technology he possesses in exchange for money.
This matter must be achieved by scholars from the School of Materials Science and Technology.
"The tasks have been arranged for a long time. There are 24 majors in the college, and each major has arranged corresponding tasks. How about it? Can you tell us about the completion of the tasks?" Fu Wenbin, the dean of the college, said, scanning the room with his eyes.
The people in the room were waiting for someone to stand up and speak.
I don’t know if it’s because he’s being humble or because he’s a little in awe of Qin Hai. During academic seminars, the scholars who usually talk to each other lively are actually a little shy at this time. Everyone exchanges looks with each other.
, I don’t know who should take the lead.
Wang Xiaochen, who was sitting next to Qin Hai, saw this, smiled slightly, pointed at Zhang Yating, director of the research laboratory specializing in sensitive materials, and said: "Sister Zhang, why don't you start first? Several of your professional achievements are all
It’s already very mature.”
"Okay, let me talk about it first. It's time to give some advice." Zhang Yating, who was in her 40s, responded readily. She spread out a piece of material in her hand and reported to Qin Hai:
"Our laboratory is mainly responsible for the research of sensitive materials. So far, we have done three directions: gas-sensitive ceramics, thermo-sensitive ceramics and pyroelectric ceramics. The tin oxide gas-sensitive ceramics we studied can
Changes in flammable gases such as hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and methane produce sensitive reactions. The maximum sensitivity can reach the order of 10 minus 6, and the reaction speed also exceeds the level of similar foreign products."
Having said this, Zhang Yating smiled sweetly, turned to everyone and said:
"By the way, our breakthrough in the sensitivity of gas-sensitive ceramics also benefited from Mr. Qin's tips. Mr. Qin suggested that we add a trace amount of tin trioxide to the tin dioxide. At the same time, we used magnesium oxide on the surface of the sensor, etc. Divalent metal oxide is used as a coating. After we tried it, we found that the effect is very significant. Colleagues in our laboratory all said that the military medal is half as good as Mr. Qin's."
Hearing what Zhang Yating said, the scholars in the room all agreed:
"Haha, that's true. Many of the organic electronic materials our laboratory is working on have received guidance from Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin is really an all-rounder in materials science!"
"That's right, that's right. I often tell my assistants that if there is any problem that cannot be solved, ask Mr. Qin for help. Mr. Qin will definitely have some unexpected and good suggestions!"
"It's really amazing. You said that I have been working on luminescent materials for so many years. Last time, Mr. Qin said something that made me feel enlightened. Sometimes I feel that my age is like a dog..."
"..."
"Okay, okay, everyone, please stop praising me." Even though Qin Hai had a thick skin that lasted for two generations, he felt that he couldn't stand it anymore and quickly interrupted everyone's praise.
In fact, what everyone said is the truth. The development of modern science and technology is changing with each passing day. Even ideas that are one year ahead of time will appear different. What's more, Qin Hai's knowledge is more than 20 years ahead of everyone else. Qin Hai doesn't want to waste his time. Because of this foresight, he often participates in academic seminars of various majors in the college and puts forward some ideas at the meetings for everyone to try.
At first, everyone didn't care about the chairman who was born in a technical school. At best, out of the desire not to embarrass Qin Hai, they followed his suggestion and gave it a try in order to have an explanation in the future. Who would have expected that after the test, , everyone discovered that Qin Hai's suggestions were so accurate. Many problems that had troubled everyone for a long time were often solved with his casual advice.
Scholars from different majors sometimes got together to chat. When they talked about this, they discovered that not only their own major, but also other majors had similar experiences. In other words, Qin Hai was actually a cross-professional materials talent. , his understanding of scientific research can never be overstated as far-sighted.
Of course, this does not mean that Qin Hai alone has the ability to conquer the world. In fact, the advice Qin Hai gave everyone was only directional, such as adding certain trace elements to certain materials, or using certain trace elements when preparing certain materials. This process, the specific amount to be added, and the process flow, still need to be explored by scientists themselves. Everyone has put in much more energy than what Qin Hai said.
But the characteristic of scientific research is that a directional guidance can make people avoid many detours. Many scientific and technological innovations are the result of a flash of inspiration in the minds of scientists. What Qin Hai has done is to provide everyone with countless flashes of light. Allowing them to achieve their desired goals with half the effort.
After having this understanding, everyone turned from passively accepting Qin Hai's suggestions to actively seeking Qin Hai's help. Qin Hai has been running around in the past two years, busy developing contacts in the business circle, but as long as he has time, he will Come back to the School of Materials Science and Technology to stay for a few days and talk about scientific research with everyone. Every time I hear that he is coming back, the heads of various research laboratories will queue up to meet him, or make an appointment with Wang Xiaochen to invite Qin Hai to their place. Look, point and point.
Zhang Yating's sensitive materials laboratory is a unit that received a lot of guidance from Qin Hai. As Zhang Yating said, half of the military medals belong to her and her assistants, and half to Qin Hai.
"Today is not a commendation meeting for me, but to listen to everyone's achievements. Professor Zhang, you just said that you have made a breakthrough in tin oxide gas-sensitive ceramic materials. The performance of the sensor exceeds foreign levels. So, how about the progress in practical application?
How?" Qin Hai asked Zhang Yating.
Zhang Yating pouted her lips slightly and said, "Mr. Qin, do I have any objections to you?"
"What's your opinion?" Qin Hai was a little confused.
Zhang Yating said with a smile: "I don't like people calling me Professor Zhang. Ask everyone what they call me now."
"Professor Zhang now asks everyone to call her Sister Zhang. She said it is more friendly." Wang Xiaochen smiled and reminded Qin Hai.
"Haha, I made a mistake. I made a mistake." Qin Hai said with a smile, "Then I will do as the Romans do, and I will call you Sister Zhang. However, Sister Zhang, don't call me Mr. Qin. Call me Xiao Qin."
Or Brother Qin, isn't he more affectionate?"
"Then I don't dare." Zhang Yating covered her mouth and said with a smile, "Mr. Qin is Mr. Qin. If I call you Brother Qin, I will be leaderless."
"Isn't this too unfair?" Qin Hai pretended to be depressed, but he didn't force it. He is the boss of the School of Materials, and the necessary dignity needs to be maintained. He can let Fu Wenbin, Wang Xiaochen and others call him Xiao
Qin, but if ordinary researchers also call them this, it would be a bit too casual. When an organization develops to a certain level, it will inevitably have hierarchical divisions. Blindly obliterating this division is not conducive to the implementation of orders and prohibitions.
Qin Hai also had some emotions in his heart about Zhang Yating's changes. Zhang Yating was also a scholar he personally introduced. He remembered that Zhang Yating used to be relatively silent, somewhat arrogant, and indifferent to others.
She doesn't seem to be easy to get along with. However, in the past two years since she came to the School of Materials Science and Technology, her personality has completely changed and she has become enthusiastic and cheerful. Otherwise, she would not be as good as "Professor Zhang" and "Sister Zhang"
This kind of title is more true.
Anhe Institute of Materials Science and Technology is a scientific research institution established according to Qin Hai's intention. From the very beginning, Qin Hai required that the institute must establish a harmonious and sunny atmosphere of scientific research and life. Places where there are many intellectuals are often filled with intrigues.
The most powerful thing is that many scientific research institutes have this characteristic. Some leaders like employees to fight with each other, and even deliberately encourage this kind of fighting, because the more fierce the fight between employees, the easier it is for the leaders to pit one faction against another.
, establish your own authority.
But Qin Hai didn't like to do this. He didn't want the scientific researchers he had spent great efforts to recruit to spend their energy on infighting, and he didn't need to maintain his rule through differentiation and disintegration. He instilled his own ideas into
I asked Fu Wenbin, Wang Xiaochen and others, hoping that they can create a harmonious atmosphere in the college.
Now it seems that this kind of effort has achieved results. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
