Chinese entertainment for engineering students

"Growth Method and Derivative Technology and Equipment Research Group Office", Suimu University, Imperial Capital.

That's right, this research group has now become a formal institution, after Shuimu University went through multiple arguments and rounds of discussions.

It was clearly concluded that this was a very large research project that could last for more than three years and produce significant results one after another.

This project has a clear route and clear methods. Both the scientific principles and funding requirements are within the capabilities of China's scientific research level, so it is extremely feasible.

As a result, Shuimu University formally determined the organizational structure of this research group and established a large-scale academic project led by Shuimu University, jointly conducted by multiple universities, and funded by the state.

At this time, it was impossible to think about anything informal, so Mizuki took out a small building as the organizational structure. Of course, the major laboratories were still managed by each department, and the projects were also re-divided.

Including the neighboring Imperial University and the nearby Imperial City Polytechnic, Imperial Airline, and Imperial City Steel will send people to participate as appropriate.

In the initial stage, Mizuki's departments will be the main body. After obtaining some preliminary results, it will be spread to other colleges and universities for practical or theoretical research.

This was reported jointly by Shuimu University after communicating with several colleges. Currently, the Institute of Steel is obviously the most active. Who told them that they have already seen the results.

The initial few millions of funds for this project were provided from Shuimu University's own funds, but this could only provide start-up funds. After all, there have been more than 20 separate projects. On average, each project is only The scientific research funding of 100,000 to 200,000 yuan is a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, the issue of funding is still being discussed in the office. This morning, Executive Deputy Team Leader Gu Changlin

"Lao Gu, what did the ministry say today?"

“It’s basically still the same, I guess I won’t have to run away in a short time.

The conclusion is that the project can be approved and the funds need to be raised by oneself. Or we have to wait for next year. This was not included in last year’s overall plan, so we won’t be able to squeeze out much funds this year.

After begging for a long time, I saw the boss today. He only promised that the ministry could provide some support, but it could not be used as the main funding. "Professor Gu Changlin scratched his cold forehead and said with some embarrassment.

Professor Gu was also a college student in the 1950s. He was originally engaged in chemical engineering. Unfortunately, his best years were wasted. Later, when he came back to implement the work, he was already a different person.

He also understood that his abilities could no longer keep up with the current scientific and technological capabilities, so he stopped engaging in scientific research and teaching, and switched to an administrative position, responsible for scientific research management in the school.

This time, he was also lucky. Several people with similar positions to him had scientific research projects in hand, but he, a latecomer, got a big advantage and became the executive deputy of the project team.

The team leader is a school leader and a member of the academic department. However, the team leader is relatively old and is one of the few remaining veterans. His main role is to stabilize the morale of the military, which is more symbolic. The main daily work still depends on him as the executive.

Or how to say "cadres must serve as deputy, but also as executive", this is a slogan left over from the struggle era, and later became "cadres should serve as deputy, not executive".

Because the executive deputy has a lot of work and huge responsibilities, it is especially easy for him to take the blame. Therefore, if you want to do something, the executive deputy position is definitely a good position. If you want to dawdle, the executive position is a hard job.

Gu Changlin is obviously the former. He is still fresh-blooded and unwilling. He is in his 60s and about to retire, but he can catch up with such a big project. The shortest time for the project is three to five years, and the longest time is ten or eight years. When the project is completed, Retiring directly can be regarded as the last glory in life.

Therefore, Lao Gu is really hardworking. He is brave and ambitious. Who doesn’t have a progressive heart? The gray-haired veteran can still fight. Well, no, my hair is basically not white anymore.

Because, no, who made it possible to eat meat after the 1980s? Hair falls very fast.

Gu Changlin has been dealing with various funding and approval issues since the first conference. At that time, the organizational structure had not yet been established. Everything is temporary, and now I finally have a small dilapidated building as a place to stay, which is already good.

However, I have to say that Lao Gu's ability is really strong. It involves communication, declaration, and approval from multiple scientific research institutes and more than ten departments from local to regional levels, and he was actually stunned in less than a month. Ran down.

It's still the "kill it first, tell it later" model, that is, while he was running, the project had already been started, and at this moment, even the formal project approval had not yet been approved.

The funniest thing is that the first batch of results, that is, the generation of high-temperature ion crystals, actually appeared faster than the project approval opinions. This gave Lao Gu a strong confidence and also gave him a great shock.

According to Lao Gu's own description, at that time Lao Gu slapped the information on the leader's desk and typed it out to the leader while standing.

The main meaning is that if you don’t speed up the approval process and you haven’t completed the approval after the project is completed, it depends on who will make the joke in the end.

His arrogant and cool demeanor, which looks down upon the world, can only be matched by the tyrant in the book.

However, after all, the times are limited. In a few decades, China's scientific research funding will easily be measured in hundreds of billions.

In this era, projects worth hundreds of millions are basically top-level engineering projects, while among research projects, projects worth tens of millions are extremely rare.

Mizuki's project is obviously just a research project, not an engineering project. The approval process for something that only requires reporting on research results has always been very strict.

After all, it is not like an engineering project, where there will be something tangible left in the end, while a research project may cost hundreds or tens of millions and end with a paper.

No one who is not a professional knows whether it is worth it, and even the researchers themselves cannot tell whether what they are doing is worth it, and even those things whose value will only be known decades later are not clear.

For example, the most widely used HTML language on the Internet in later generations is actually a subset of a set of SGML specifications developed in the 1980s, and the invention of SGML can even be traced back to IBM in the 1960s.

Those studies and definitions were actually of little use at the time. They were left there for ten years and no one cared about them, but there were definitely very few users.

It was not until Tim Berners-Lee chose it as the basic language of the Internet a few years ago and was widely adopted internationally that it began to shine and became the most widely known computer language.

As for the current situation in China, everyone knows that, not to mention poverty, but the landlords definitely have no food left.

Not to mention scientific research, even military expenditures were cut again and again. The scene where later generations of Navy veterans cried bitterly on the show, which resonated with countless netizens, was actually about this moment.

Therefore, funding for scientific research is extremely tight. Why do you think the requirements for professor evaluation are so low now? It’s really due to shortcomings in all aspects. It’s not just one or two shortcomings, it’s all shortcomings.
