Chapter 260 Who would you choose to give this technology to?
"Yes!" Yu Hua looked sincere and his eyes were full of sincere emotions. He quietly stared at Zhuang Qianding who was deep in thought without making a sound to urge him.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent, and time passed by quietly inadvertently.
For Zhuang Qianding, Yu Hua's invitation was actually a bit illegal, because Yu Hua was a student and Zhuang Qianding belonged to his husband.
Normally, professors assign topics and projects to students. How can there be any reason for students to invite their teachers to do projects?
However, Zhuang Qianding doesn't care about this. What he cares about is...
technology itself.
"In Yu Sheng, there is no problem in joining the air separation equipment and oxygen blowing furnace projects. However, sir, I have a doubt, where do our funds come from? This is not a small amount of money. The value of new air separation equipment and oxygen blowing furnace technology is more than
The vertical deep hole drilling machine I am researching is one level higher. If I ask for funding from Nanjing, not to mention whether this result will be picked by others, the most important thing is that it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be leaked to the Japanese.
."
After a long time, Zhuang Qianding raised his head, stared at Yu Hua with his eyes, his face showed an indescribable solemnity, and said seriously: "If the Japanese get the air separation equipment and oxygen blowing furnace technology... This will be very important to me, China."
It will be an even bigger disaster."
Air separation equipment provides the material basis for oxygen steelmaking, and oxygen blowing furnace technology directly subverts the entire steel industry, enough to set off an unprecedented steel revolution.
The theoretical annual output of a single 2T-class oxygen converter can reach 30,000-35,000 tons. With Japan's background and strength as a senior industrial country, after obtaining the oxygen blowing furnace technology, it is enough to quickly develop a 50T-class oxygen converter, or even a 100T-class oxygen converter.
The theoretical annual output of a 50T oxygen converter can reach about 600,000 tons, and that of a 100T oxygen converter can reach 1.2 million tons. This will greatly enhance Japan's comprehensive national strength and war potential.
With Japan's strength, if there is no problem in building five 100-ton oxygen converters in three years, the country's total steel production can be directly doubled to the tens of millions of tons. By then, warships, tanks, aircraft, cannons and rifles, etc.
The output of weapons and equipment will also increase exponentially.
This situation is really a disaster for China.
The significance of oxygen converter technology is that it fundamentally makes up for Japan's lack of productivity!
Not enough resources?
It's okay, just go and grab it.
"The student still has a savings of thirty-five thousand silver dollars, which can temporarily support the early research and development investment in air separation equipment and oxygen blowing furnace technology." Yu Hua was delighted when he heard that, and answered the questions raised by Professor Zhuang truthfully.
Zhuang Qianding heard that although he was surprised that Yu Hua, as a student, had such a huge savings, he quickly reacted and said bluntly: "Thirty-five thousand silver dollars?! It's not enough. This fee is far from enough. At least two hundred thousand are needed."
The research and development funding is about a silver dollar, and it also requires a lot of manpower, material resources and materials, which you and I personally cannot afford."
Thirty-five thousand silver dollars, this amount of money is a huge sum for an individual, but for scientific research funding, it is nothing more than a drop in the bucket.
The steel industry has always been known for its high investment. When it comes to steel, the required funds start at RMB 100,000 and can easily reach the level of one million yuan.
If you want to build a steel enterprise of the scale of Hanyang Iron Works, you need to have a capital scale of about ten million silver dollars and continue construction for several years.
Of course, times are advancing and technology is developing. After Zhuang Qianding's evaluation, all research and development funds for 2T oxygen converter technology are approximately 200,000 silver dollars.
This number seems huge, but in fact, it is very small.
"Professor, we don't need 200,000 yuan in research and development funds. The students have calculated that only 100,000 yuan is enough. Most of the investment belongs to the construction of the experimental converter and material expenses. The investment in design is almost negligible. The students can All theoretical designs are completed by establishing mathematical models.”
Yu Hua shook his head and responded: "Now that you have joined, the funding may be reduced by about ten thousand. You have rich scientific research experience and management experience."
Again, Professor Zhuang is not an ordinary university professor. He has astonishing talent. After establishing the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Tsinghua University, he was spotted by Nanjing. He was seconded to Nanjing by the Resources Committee to serve as the head of the Machinery Manufacturing Factory of the Resources Committee. Acting Preparatory Director, this factory is designed to be large-scale and mainly produces various aerospace engines.
In other words, Professor Zhuang not only serves as a technical engineer in this factory, but also has front-line practical management experience.
What is awesome?
That’s it!
A top talent who has reached the highest level of comprehensive strength!
If only one person could be poached from the National Tsinghua University professor team, then Yu Hua would not hesitate to choose Professor Zhuang Qianding. Compared with his master, Professor Zhao Zhongyao, Professor Chen Yinke, etc., Professor Zhuang has the highest practical value. .
"Mathematical model...theoretical design is completed through numerical calculation. For you, except for the necessary experimental investment, all the theoretical investment is basically a bowl of rice." Zhuang Qianding heard this and immediately reacted, looking at Yu Hua and couldn't help but Express your inner feelings.
Let him say a dirty word - his mother's frugality!
Yes, save.
When others develop a technology or conduct scientific experiments, they often need to spend a lot of money, including experimental investment and theoretical investment. These funds are not a small amount.
And what about Yu Hua?
In addition to the inevitable experimental investment, the theoretical investment only requires a bowl of rice.
When Yu Hua heard this, he smiled and did not refute. This was his unique advantage and the basis for realizing his plan.
"Yu Sheng, let me ask you one last question." After a few breaths, Zhuang Qianding came back to his senses. He picked up the kettle next to the gantry with his right hand, opened it and took a sip to relieve his thirst. He tightened the cap of the bottle and saw the sparkling water. God's eyes looked at Yu Hua.
Yu Hua said respectfully: "Say, Professor."
"If the oxygen blowing furnace technology is successfully developed, who will this technology be given to?" Zhuang Qianding stared at Yu Hua and said solemnly: "Nanjing, various warlords, or the red organizations that have taken root in Shaanxi."
to whom!
Who does oxygen blowing furnace technology give to!
This is a seemingly inconspicuous but extremely critical core issue.
The end of technology research and development is to put it to use. The importance and role of this strategic steelmaking technology are self-evident. Any force that obtains it can use this technology to grow rapidly as long as they are not stupid.
stand up.
To Nanjing, to various warlords, or to red organizations that have experienced the Long March!
Choose one of the three, there are no other options.
There is no way for an individual to set up a steelmaking enterprise. As for registering a patent internationally and obtaining patent fees, etc., there is no need to consider it.
The answer to this choice determines Zhuang Qianding's final decision.
Yu Hua wanted to invite him to join as a student, so Zhuang Qianding had to figure out some things. He didn't like to conduct research in a muddle, and he didn't like to be kept in the dark, like a fool.
"Professor, since you are keenly aware of this and the students no longer want to hide it from you, the students will give the technology to the red organizations in Shaanxi and never to local warlords like Nanjing and Yan Xishan." Feeling Zhuang Qianding's attitude, Yu Hua's face
Showing sincerity, he bowed and saluted, and responded: "The student's identity is a scientific researcher hired by the red organization. His savings of 35,000 yuan are all from the profits from the sale of technology."
