Gao Fan said with a smile. Before Pan Yue could say anything modest, he then asked: "So, how is the design of the small polyester device that Minister Zheng explained going on?"
"Uh, this..."
Pan Yue's face suddenly stiffened and he began to hesitate.
"Lao Pan, you're not going to tell me that you haven't done anything in the past two months, are you?" Gao Fan asked tentatively.
"How is this possible..." Pan Yue responded subconsciously, but then lowered his eyelids and said nonchalantly: "The progress is indeed not ideal."
"What do you mean by not ideal?" Gao Fan asked.
He didn't want to accuse Pan Yue of Xingshi, after all, Zheng Linong didn't give him this authorization. He just remembered that when he talked about this matter in Zheng Linong's room last time, Pan Yue was full of confidence, and Gao Fan himself also knew a thing
The small polyester device is not that complicated, so how could there be no progress in two months?
Pan Yue didn't know what Zheng Linong had told Gao Fan. Hearing Gao Fan's question, he vaguely felt that Gao Fan might have come to inspect the post on behalf of Zheng Linong, and he couldn't help but panic.
He said: "We have held five plan demonstration meetings, and I personally have made some preliminary designs. Others...have not yet been developed."
Just co-authoring and doing nothing.
How could Gao Fan not understand what Pan Yue meant? He looked at Pan Yue and said, "Old Pan, you don't think what Minister Zheng said back then was just casual talk, do you?"
Pan Yue said: "Of course not. Minister Zheng transferred me to the hydration equipment as the chief engineer and asked me to develop small polyester equipment. I must know this."
"Then why are you slacking off?"
"I'm not slacking off, but..."
Pan Yue thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a more euphemistic way of saying it, so he simply said: "Minister Zheng Guang told us to develop a small polyester device in the hydration equipment, but he didn't say who would pay for it. I'll report it."
I asked the Department of Chemical Industry to approve a research fund of 100,000 yuan, but it has not been approved for two months. Can you blame me?"
"Who do you blame?" Gao Fan asked.
Pan Yue was stunned for a moment and replied: "No one complains because we are a developing country."
When he said this, his tone was full of resentment.
When Zheng Linong arranged for him to work as the chief engineer of the Water Chemical Engineering Plant, Pan Yue was very ambitious and determined to die for his confidants. He planned to work hard and make some achievements to be worthy of the minister's favor.
But after arriving at the hydration equipment, he discovered that Zheng Linongguang had asked him to develop a small polyester device, but he did not say who would pay for the initial investment. It was true that he was the chief engineer of the hydration equipment, and his subordinates did manage it well.
Dozens of engineers can develop a complete set of equipment, which costs money. What can they do without money?
He also submitted a funding application to the factory director. The factory director complained to him that the factory's operating conditions have been poor in recent years, and it even suffered a net loss on the books. Fortunately, the country has some subsidy policies for policy losses, so the factory can be considered a little bit better.
Money, but this money is used to improve the lives of employees, how can it be invested in research and development?
Since the matter of small polyester equipment was assigned by the minister, the funds should naturally be provided by superiors. How can there be any reason for enterprises to invest in technology development themselves?
Pan Yue knew that what the factory director said was right, so he turned around and asked the Chemical Industry Department for money, which was what he said about the report. As a result, the department suppressed the report, neither agreeing nor rejecting it, and just delayed it.
Two months, no news.
In fact, the attitude of the Department of Chemical Industry is very obvious. The matter of small polyester was requested by the Ministry of Chemical Industry. Why should the Department of Chemical Industry pay for it? But when Zheng Linong was in Shuinan, the Provincial Department of Chemical Industry agreed to this matter, so
It is also inconvenient to directly reject Pan Yue's report.
If that's the case, let's put it off. Maybe Zheng Linong will be busy with work and forget about this matter, and wouldn't everyone be happy?
In Pan Yue's heart, he was actually full of resentment. He was fooled into the company by Zheng Linong and, yes, Gao Fan, the little kid in front of him in front of the chemical industry department. He wanted to let go
After a fight, unexpectedly, the gang fell silent after pushing him out.
Now that he is trapped in the pit of Shui Hua She, with no answer from heaven or earth, how can he not be full of complaints?
However, he couldn't tell who to blame. It seemed that everyone was right, so he was the one who was wrong.
Hearing what Pan Yue said, Gao Fan understood the whole story. He smiled and said: "So, Minister Zheng fired a cannon and gave you an order without giving any money to let you sit on the wax.
"
"I didn't say that." Pan Yue said.
Just kidding, you are the little celebrity in front of the minister. Do I dare to say bad things about the minister in front of you? You go and make a small report later. Can my small body withstand the minister's thunderous wrath?
"I think it's okay for you to say so." Gao Fan said, "I'm going back to Beijing soon, and I'll help you report this situation to the minister."
"The funds in the ministry are also very tight. I understand that. I don't mean to blame Minister Zheng." Pan Yue insisted.
"This kind of funds should be raised by the company itself, right?" Gao Fan said, "Being able to develop new products is good for the company, and the company should bear this cost."
"This is not necessarily the case." Pan Yue said, "Even if a small polyester device is developed, it may not be able to find business immediately. What benefits can it bring to our company?"
"The domestic polyester market is still in short supply. How can there be no market after the development of small polyester devices?" Gao Fan asked.
"Where is the market?" Pan Yue stretched out his hand, as if asking for something, and said to Gao Fan.
This sentence really stopped Gao Fan.
Gao Fan knows that the domestic polyester market is in short supply. However, the investment for a domestic small-scale polyester device may be more than 10 million yuan, which cannot be obtained by any unit or city.
In Gao Fan’s memory, the large-scale launch of small-scale polyester plants in China was in the 1990s, and the main investors were township and village enterprises. But nowadays, township and village enterprises are still in their infancy, and they can invest 10 million yuan.
It can be said that they are rare, and those who happen to be willing to invest in polyester are even more rare.
At this time, it was really difficult for Gao Fan to take out a few orders from his pocket and give them to Pan Yue.
However, if we do not engage in research and development now, the country will have to purchase each set from abroad at a high price. This is also a pity, and it feels very useless to be cheated by others.
"General Engineer Pan, let me ask you two questions. First, if you want to completely design a 5,000-ton small polyester plant, how much capital do you need?" Gao Fan asked.
