A trip to the Middle East finally fulfilled Ka'an's long-cherished wish. For Qin Hai, this trip was even more fruitful. First, he confirmed a crude oil supply agreement with Flandin for the next ten years to ensure that when the international crisis occurs
Under the changing circumstances, Daqin Group can give priority to obtaining crude oil from Ghazal. Secondly, it is clear that the two parties will cooperate in seawater desalination plants, desert water-retaining particles, and lightning collection systems. These cooperation can bring Daqin Group billions
The income is above USD and has a strong demonstration effect, which helps to develop new business.
After completing these tasks, Qin Hai said goodbye to Flandin and returned to the capital with Ning Jing. Yu Lihong, Ka'an and other technical staff still need to stay locally to do some evaluation and design work, so Qin Hai does not need to worry about such things.
.
There is another good thing waiting for Qin Hai in the capital, that is, after years of persistent appeals, the central government has finally approved the establishment of a coordination agency at the national level aimed at promoting national materials research and development of the materials industry, called the National
The Materials Industry Promotion Center is affiliated to the Ministry of Information Industry. Qin Hai returned to the capital just in time to catch up with the celebration of the center's listing. Or to put it more bluntly, they have been putting off this celebration, waiting for Qin Hai
It was held just after returning from abroad.
The celebration ceremony was quite large-scale, and it goes without saying that there were all kinds of red tape. The center had just been established, and there was no team yet. Most of the organization and reception work was assisted by the Daqin Group's Beijing Office. The ceremony ended.
, the guests sent by various ministries and commissions to watch the ceremony left one after another. Qin Hai accompanied the center director Yang Xinyu and the center's chief scientist Li Linguang back to the conference room. Those left there were some acquaintances, including the old general Ji Mingchu and the old deputy director of the Planning Commission Wang Hongsheng. This center
Its establishment is not unrelated to their help.
Yang Xinyu had left his leadership position in the Machinery Committee a few years ago and only served as the president of an industry association. This time the Materials Industry Promotion Center was established, and he took the initiative to serve as the director of the center, and he also had the idea of using some of his residual energy.
As for Li Linguang, he has been very influential in the materials science and industry circles in recent years. This time he serves as the chief scientist of the center, which is considered a popular choice.
"Xiao Qin, you are amazing. So many ministries, companies, and universities have sent people to attend the celebration today. I think most of them are doing it for your sake, right?"
As soon as Qin Hai and his entourage walked into the room and sat down, Ji Mingchu spoke with a smile. He was an old general, so he didn't have to care about other people's emotions when he spoke. If it were someone else, he would at least make Yang Xinyu and Li Linguang feel comfortable with his words.
Not happy.
"Mr. Ji, you are trying to attract hatred for me. The director of the center is Director Yang, and the chief scientist is Professor Li. How can everyone come here for my sake?" Qin Hai made a gesture of reaching out to wipe his sweat, pretending
Said awkwardly.
Having said that, Qin Hai knew in his heart that Ji Mingchu's judgment was correct. After all, this center is just a public institution under the Ministry of Information Industry. There are thousands of units of this level in the capital. There is no single unit.
The celebration was able to attract so many people because, in the final analysis, Qin Hai's appeal was strong enough.
Qin Hai only holds the title of director in the Materials Promotion Center, but everyone knows that he has the greatest say in the center. It can even be said that the center was established for him. Yang Xinyu and Li Linguang only guarded it for him.
Just people at the stall.
Since the development of Daqin Group, the asset scale has reached hundreds of billions, and it has been involved in almost all material fields, especially in the two largest fields of steel and chemicals. It can be said to play a decisive role. Just having money can also
It is not enough to command the world. The most important thing is Daqin Group’s unrivaled dominance in materials research.
Someone has made a rough statistics. Among the most influential materials experts in the country, one-quarter are in Anhe Institute of Materials Science, one-fourth have worked in Anhe Institute of Materials Science, and one-quarter are more or less qualified.
With the funding from the Daqin Group, I'm afraid I can't even find a quarter of those who really have nothing to do with the Daqin Group, and they tend to be in some unpopular fields.
Materials are the foundation of industry and the most important part of the entire industrial system. Over the years, Qin Hai has led Daqin Group to focus on the field of materials and achieved brilliant results. But he knows that it is impossible to support the entire country by relying on just one enterprise.
In the materials industry, the development of the industry requires countless companies to work together. In many years of practice, he has personally experienced the negative impacts of various disorderly competitions, so he urged the establishment of such a coordination organization.
Qin Hai's idea was endorsed by many people of insight from central ministries and commissions to grassroots enterprises, especially some influential old leaders and big-name experts and professors. They continued to respond at various meetings, and finally
That's why the Materials Industry Promotion Center was established. Ji Mingchu said that everyone was doing it for Qin Hai's sake. This is a well-known fact.
Yang Xinyu also greatly agreed with this. He smiled and echoed Ji Mingchu's words: "Mr. Ji is right. The establishment of our center is mainly due to Xiao Qin's contribution. Professor Li and I are also doing this because of you."
The one who took on this burden."
"Director Yang said this, just like putting me on the fire. Xiao Qin, I am really ashamed. You are all my seniors, I am just a junior. What virtues and abilities do I have to let you help me like this?
." Qin Hai smiled and bowed to everyone one by one to express his thanks.
After the banter, Wang Hongsheng coughed lightly and said: "Xiao Qin, now that the center has been established, you are the founder of the center. Take this time to tell us about your next step."
"That's what I meant." Qin Hai said seriously.
"Okay, let's listen together and help you check." Ji Mingchu said politely, and then changed to a more comfortable position on the sofa, pretending to be ready to listen to Qin Hai's long speech.
Qin Haidao:
"We have also elaborated on the purpose of establishing the Materials Industry Promotion Center in various previous reports. Director Yang and Professor Li participated in the drafting of these reports. Mr. Ji and Director Wang both helped us point out problems. I
I won’t go into details.
The development of my country's materials industry has now entered a fast lane. The materials scientific research system is relatively complete, the talent accumulation is sufficient, and scientific research results have doubled. After decades of development, the materials industry has now formed a huge system with relatively complete categories. The R&D and production of materials equipment also have a good foundation, which can support the needs of faster development of the materials industry in the future.
At present, the main problem we face is that there are still some gaps in the field of high-end materials, and there is still a gap with foreign advanced levels; the structure of mid-end materials is not reasonable enough, and the production capacity of some materials is insufficient, requiring large quantities of imports; while low-end materials have overcapacity and a large number of them are lagging behind.
Equipment needs to be eliminated urgently. To sum it up in one sentence, the materials industry needs to be upgraded."
"That's right." Yang Xinyu nodded in approval, "In the 1980s and 1990s, the main problem we faced was insufficient supply, so all walks of life focused on increasing supply, resulting in a large amount of backward production capacity.
There is a lack of mid-to-high-end scientific research and accumulation. Now that the supply problem has been alleviated, it is time to adjust the structure and achieve industrial upgrading."
Qin Haidao: "The situation that Director Yang mentioned was particularly deeply felt when I participated in the campaign to control small iron and steel companies two years ago. Those small iron and steel companies that were strictly ordered to be banned by the Economic and Trade Commission were precisely the ones we vigorously banned more than ten years ago.
Support projects. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, this kind of small steel was a treasure everywhere."
"That's right, back then there was a young boy who went to the Engineering College, took a bottle of white wine with no products, and tricked me into working as a technical guide for his small steel factory..." Li Linguang added with a smile.
"Uh..." Qin Hai scratched his scalp and was speechless. Isn't the young boy Li Linguang was talking about Qin Hai? That's when they started to establish a cooperative relationship. It was almost 20 years ago.
It's time.
Ji Mingchu said: "This is the same as the other. There were reasons for doing this at that time. Just because our economic conditions are better today and our technical level has improved, we cannot deny the expedient measures we had back then. Just like when we talk about the mechanization of the army today,
Informatization is not to deny the Xiaomi and rifles of the past, these are all limited by conditions."
"Mr. Ji is right. It was necessary to do that back then. However, times have changed now. It's time to upgrade and we must not be lenient. Xiao Qin, please continue to express your thoughts." Wang Hongsheng said.
"Okay." Qin Hai nodded and continued: "As we just said, the material industry structure we formed in the past was an expedient measure under the conditions of shortage of materials and low production capacity. Now we have
With a fairly strong industrial foundation, we should have more foresight in future development, plan ahead, aim at the industrial development trend in the next 20 or even 50 years, and choose a sustainable development path. We must not let
Our descendants will have to pay the price for our mistakes today."
"This is a good idea." Wang Hongsheng said, "In the past, when we were poor, we could only make do and make ends meet. Now that we have a little money, we should plan carefully and stop engaging in such short-term behavior."
"Therefore, I think the most important task of our Materials Industry Promotion Center at the moment is to formulate a materials industry development outline for 2050, which will serve as a blueprint for national materials scientific research and materials industry development. In the future, it will be used in the formulation of national industrial policies and scientific research orientations.
, industry standards and other aspects must be based on this." Qin Hai said impassionedly. (~^~)
