At six o'clock in the afternoon, the closing bell rang.
Due to the special nature of the work, employees at Tianyang Machinery Factory cannot shut down the machine immediately. They have about half an hour to slowly end the work at hand and hand over their positions to night shift workers.
Zhang Gaoyuan heard the ringtone, saved the drawings drawn on his computer, made a simple work note, and stood up from behind the workbench.
After Professor Jung handed over the burned disc, he felt as if he had let himself go. The "takeaway" from hk will not arrive until tomorrow at the earliest. He was excitedly running around the factory today, and everything he looked at seemed strange.
.
He was looking for people to chat with, randomly giving instructions on other people's work, and looking for fun everywhere. Jung was more active than other specially hired experts. Before leaving get off work, the fat man finally got tired and ran to the office to inspect the work of Zhang Gaoyuan and others.
It has to be said that this youngest associate professor at Princeton in recent years has a very high standard. He is familiar with the complicated specifications of mechanical manufacturing and can give the best design plan based on the current domestic technical level and the foreseeable future.
According to Jung's suggestion, Holy Light's pursuit of heavy-duty integrated transmissions is to break through large vehicle manufacturing technology. But at the same time, relevant technologies should be applied to light-duty hydraulic transmissions for family cars.
Given the size of the domestic market, and learning from the Japanese engineering staff’s pursuit of excellence, the ‘Shengguang’ sedan will soon be able to release a second model with greatly improved performance, and then make a lot of money with sufficient production capacity.
Heavy industry is very expensive. Even if research and development funds are eliminated, the investment in production lines alone can bring down ordinary enterprises. The output of large vehicles is far less than that of family cars. The same technical route should be considered for wider application to reduce costs.
Zhang Gaoyuan was convinced. He wrote a small note summarizing his work today and posted it next to the monitor. It included a few words from Jung.
"Gong Zhang, it's time to eat." A young man in the same group called at the door, "This canteen is dedicated to Southeast Asia. It is said that they serve Thai and Malaysian food. Let's go and try something new!"
Zhang Gaoyuan nodded, smiled, and followed out.
‘Holy Light University’ was founded in 2016 and followed the path of closely connecting ‘industry, academia and research’. A team of specially hired experts not only cultivates talents, but also directly intervenes in the production line.
Zhang Gaoyuan and others are the seed students. After completing their studies, they will be responsible for disseminating the technology. The ones who accepted the dissemination were the technicians from Northeast China and Inner Mongolia outside the office, who surrounded him and walked towards the cafeteria.
When Zhou Qingfeng really brought in foreign experts and scholars, the ministries and commissions immediately filled in a large number of people, who were regarded as auditors at the 'Holy Light University'. They were mainly concentrated in heavy industrial machinery manufacturing. There is still a small talent reserve in this area in the country.
At best, this is called "spending a little money to accomplish big things", but at worst, it's just to take advantage.
Is it just an effect...?
"Gong Zhang, how much salary does 'Holy Light' offer you?" There was a young man in the team who asked how much a month would cost.
Everyone always wants to make a comparison, and it is common these days to ask about salary.
Zhang Gaoyuan smiled and said, "Before coming to Holy Light, my salary was more than 300 yuan a month. After coming to Holy Light, I had no formal position and was arranged to study with Professor Jung. I only received a monthly subsidy of more than 800 yuan."
Since 1993, prices have risen sharply. The capable public institutions have raised wages one after another, while the incompetent ones have defaulted on wages.
Zhang Gaoyuan's original employer was in arrears with wages, but it was a blessing in disguise that he was acquired by the Holy Light, and the subsidy he received was only a thousand dollars less.
When this number was reported, the young people surrounding them were in an uproar - they were 'auditing' the study. 'Holy Light' would at most give them a few dozen yuan in meal subsidies and free accommodation, but nothing else.
Although this money is enough to live on, it is far behind Zhang Gaoyuan.
"This subsidy is comparable to the official salary of our Fularki researcher."
"You Fulalji are not bad at all."
"No way. Back then, I was lazy and built a factory along the extension of the Siberian Railway to Qiqihar. But we have no resources around Fularki, and there is no steel factory near the heavy industry. Twenty years ago, I couldn't compare with you Baotou.
."
Several young people talked nonsense, and after complaining, they turned back to Zhang Gaoyuan, "Gong Zhang, if you become a full-time employee, how much can you make in a month?"
"I still don't know how to become a regular employee?"
Zhang Gaoyuan himself laughed. The university established by the president was designed to be launched on an emergency basis, just to train a group of people in a short period of time to strengthen the group's technical strength.
The organization of the Holy Light University is really a bit messy. But after all, it has only been established for less than half a year, so it would be good to get the team together and get it running. I believe that when the school building is arranged next year, everything will be on track.
"If you are a regular employee, it should be at least 2,400."
Zhang Gaoyuan humbly said two thousand four thousand, but in his heart he was staring at the four or five thousand position. He had recently heard that the starting salary of the group's senior technical staff had been adjusted to eight thousand.
Without such a "high salary", all the talents we have managed to cultivate will have to go abroad.
He felt that even if he was not an 'advanced' person, he should be fine as an 'intermediate' person.
It's just this "modest" number that also amazed the young people from the north. Especially those from the northeast, they sighed and shook their heads.
"I don't want to go back."
"But the ministry won't let me."
"At worst, I don't want that job anymore."
"That's nonsense. Your father had to ask for a lot of favors to make up for it."
"So what? I can't make any money at all, and I still have to suffer every day. I'd rather work as a part-timer at the Holy Light."
When it comes to their own interests and the future, the young people who were 'listening' were talking about it, which made the atmosphere depressed. Zhang Gaoyuan was originally a little secretly proud, but in the blink of an eye he was also lamenting in his heart.
I don’t know what the ministry was thinking, but they sent a bunch of technicians from large state-owned factories to study. But few of the people who came could understand the technical information. Some of them were just rookies who had graduated from technical secondary schools, let alone studying.
Traveling around all over the world is not doing your job.
Seeing that Zhang Gaoyuan could make money, these 'auditors' all clamored to stay. 'Holy Light' does not discriminate between good and bad, educated and non-discriminatory, but they will never want to mess around.
Zhang Gaoyuan thought of the rumors he had heard, saying that Mr. Zhou initially tried to persuade state-owned enterprises to develop CNC machine tools, but the state-owned enterprises ignored them. Mr. Zhou was forced to acquire the bankrupt machine tool factory and start it again, and it is now prospering.
Now that the Holy Light is setting up a university, everyone says Zhou was forced to do so. Because the current atmosphere of despair permeates the scientific research system, everyone has no confidence in themselves and will only look to foreign countries.
Zhang Gaoyuan, who also came from within the system, has a deep understanding of this argument and even completely agrees with it. However, he and Jung had been together for some time and heard another interpretation from another perspective.
The root cause of a poor organization is lack of money!
Without money, you can't unite people.
The United States also has academic corruption, both in number and scale. But the United States is rich, and as long as some of its projects succeed, it can endure losses and promote economic and technological development.
As for China... because of poverty, investment in technology is too low.
For example, the total investment in all aircraft engines since the founding of the People's Republic of China is not as much as the money burned by the American F404 engine project. And how many types of aircraft engines do the Americans have? There are dozens of them in active service.
This is a huge gap in national strength.
To be able to achieve the current results with such a small amount of domestic investment is already a very high efficiency in the use of funds. But if you want to surpass the US emperor, you have to catch up with the pace of other people's spending!
Zhang Gaoyuan sighed in his heart: "Fortunately, 'Holy Light' spends money very generously."
