Genius of the Rules-Style System

Zhao Yi didn't care about the news about K03A performance improvement released by 307 Steel Factory, because everything was as expected, and it was even a little lower than expected.

Increase the melting point by one hundred degrees Celsius? What's the big deal? It is still two or three hundred degrees behind the international top level!

The work has only just begun.

The recruitment work at hand is even more important. The Metal Materials Laboratory has just been established, and even the equipment in the laboratory is brand new. Talents are far more important than equipment. The university does not have any talent reserves in materials science. , just recruiting new talents outside.

Zhao Yi and Shen Binghe discussed for a long time, all about the need to recruit talents.

Shen Binghe found that he couldn't keep up with his ideas. He was just thinking about expanding the manpower in the laboratory and also considering future research and development issues. Zhao Yi seemed to have higher requirements, especially in terms of alloy materials. He asked doubtfully, "Academician Zhao, Are the people we are recruiting now going to participate in the project? It is the turbine blade project."

"Of course!"

Zhao Yi said depressedly, "Otherwise, what would I be doing with you for so long? I'm not the person in charge of the materials profession." What he meant was that the future development of the Metal Materials Laboratory has nothing to do with him.

This is a fact.

Although it sounds unpleasant to say it, the purpose of Zhao Yi's creation of the Metal Materials Laboratory was only to support cooperation with the Metal Composite Materials Laboratory of the University of Aeronautics and Astronautics on the turbine blade alloy material project.

Shen Binghe was held back for a moment before he understood. He thought Zhao Yi was doing it for professional development, but he didn't expect it was just for the project.

Of course, it's normal.

The realization of this project is indeed more important than a newly established metal materials laboratory.

Shen Binghe also understood why the two had so many differences in recruitment. He reasoned and said, "If it is to do a project, we must find someone who specializes in alloy materials."

"It is best to have participated in many projects, even related projects, and have rich experience. The ability cannot be bad, and it must be able to contribute to the results."

"Also, does this involve confidentiality? Some students who have just received their Ph.D. can be eliminated."

"Count it all..."

Shen Binghe said with a wry smile, "We should recruit a researcher who has done similar projects."

He was joking.

If you are a researcher or professor who has done similar projects, your status in your respective laboratory, institution, or university must be very high. At least you have a stable professional title within the system. It is impossible for you to switch jobs to the Metal Materials Laboratory.

In addition, judging from the situation in the laboratory, it is impossible to recruit a professor-level figure. When the time comes, who has the final say? It’s impossible to recruit a ‘boss’ through poaching, right?

Zhao Yi decided to recruit a professor-level figure. He must have nothing to say, but he definitely did not want to recruit a "superior". It would be good to have a capable assistant professor or associate professor, who can share the work and develop the laboratory together.

Zhao Yi shook his head and said, "You don't need to be a researcher, just have participated in similar projects. Similar projects..." He thought about it and suddenly his eyes lit up, "I suddenly thought of two places where I might be able to find people!"

"Where?"

"The Institute of Metal Research of the Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Aeronautical Materials. They cannot only make single crystal nickel alloys with academicians and researchers. There must be other people, and there may also be students... For example, people from the Academy of Sciences may have leaders. Students, but we don’t consider students, others are fine too!”

Zhao Yi's eyes lit up as he said, "Yes, let's do it like this. Check out the papers on nickel alloys published by the Institute of Metal Research and the Institute of Aeronautical Materials to see if anyone else has their name."

"If there is, dig it out and try it!

"Send my name and say that you can come to the laboratory and work on the nickel-iron alloy project together. You can sign as an assistant researcher first and then be promoted to associate researcher after the project."

"The school can also offer associate professors. As long as they are capable and the salary is negotiable, remuneration is not a problem!"

Shen Binghe nodded and said, "Okay! I'll check it out."

…

307 steel mill.

The R\u0026D team led by He Guilin has invested great enthusiasm in improving the manufacturing process.

Based on Zhao Yi's suggestion, they simply modified the high-temperature furnace and jump mixer, and the performance of the K03A nickel-iron alloy produced was greatly improved.

The R\u0026D team now has Zhao Yi's suggestion report and several suggestions on the manufacturing process.

"The performance of K03A can be improved!"

He Guilin said excitedly, "Academician Zhao's level has been proven. What we have to do is to turn Academician Zhao's suggestions into practice and implement them."

He calmed down and continued, "Don't expect too much. I remember Academician Zhao said when he left, the follow-up problems are all minor problems, and the effect may not be too obvious, but as long as the performance of K03A can be improved, even just a little, It’s all worth it.”

Others also said, "Let's verify it first."

"Work overtime to verify and get the results as soon as possible. We can't live up to Academician Zhao's advice!"

"We must do it well this time!"

"Single crystal nickel, nickel-iron alloy is the right way..."

The last sentence illustrates the mentality of the R\u0026D team. What they resist is not the ‘single crystal’ technology, but ‘outside R\u0026D’.

307 Steel Factory is a regular state-owned factory that specializes in producing military steel and alloy materials.

In the past, the R\u0026D team of the steel mill was responsible for the design and production, which formed a closed loop. With the development and advancement of technology, many R\u0026D are gradually done by outside institutions. The R\u0026D team of the steel mill seems to have become useless. It has some effect, but it doesn't have much effect.

The overall embarrassing situation of the steel plant's R\u0026D team has little to do with ordinary scientific researchers, but they still hope to produce results instead of relying entirely on the results of external institutions.

Now is your chance.

Although everyone knows that it was Zhao Yi who suggested the manufacturing process, because the R\u0026D team was required to design and verify it, they could also get some credit for the results, which played a role halfway.

In addition, it is an emotional issue.

K03A nickel-iron alloy is the result of 307 Steel Plant. Even though it was a result more than ten years ago, the R\u0026D team still has several people who participated in the research and development project. They hope that K03A can be used in domestic aerospace engines instead of being used by alloy results of other institutions. Replace it, otherwise K03A will lose its meaning of existence.

Who would want their achievements to lose their meaning?

…

Academician Peng Engui of the Institute of Metal Research of the Academy of Sciences has completely opposite feelings about the performance improvement of K03A nickel-iron alloy than the R\u0026D team of 307 Steel Plant. Deep down in his heart, he even hopes that there will be no improvement in the performance of K03A.

Peng Engui is one of the big names in domestic military alloy materials. The R\u0026D team he led has achieved many results, but none have been widely used, and only a handful of high-value results have been achieved.

Although there were no amazing results, Peng Engui's experience and ability are worthy of recognition, and he still applied for the single crystal nickel alloy project.

This is a national key alloy project.

When it comes to key projects in the military-industrial field, funding is not an issue at all.

Since applying for the turbine blade single crystal nickel alloy project, Peng Engui's R\u0026D team has easily applied for funding. The state has given continuous support to the project in the hope that results will be produced quickly and the country will have the ability to manufacture high-end turbine blades.

The research on alloy materials is very important to burn money.

With continuous financial support, Peng Engui's R\u0026D team has also made achievements one after another. They have surpassed the Capital Aeronautical Materials Research Institute and designed DD5 and other valuable single crystal nickel alloys, and are close to manufacturing products that surpass K03A. Alloy materials seem to be getting closer.

This is an 'important goal'. Creating a single crystal nickel alloy that surpasses K03A can be produced and assembled on domestic aero engines. In other words, the research and development results have practical uses. We have developed turbine blades for domestic aero engines. Listen. I knew it was a major contribution, and maybe I could win a major national scientific research award for it.

Peng Engui was already looking forward to it.

result……

"K03A has improved its manufacturing process and its performance has been improved? Has its melting point increased by a hundred degrees? Has its strength increased?"

"What an international joke!"

Peng Engui gritted his teeth as he spoke. He had never thought that the performance of K03A could be improved. It would be terrible to increase the melting point by a hundred degrees. There is a gap between DD5 and K03A. If the melting point is even less than a hundred degrees, he would have to approach the international level if he wanted to surpass K03A. Is it level?

The melting point of the turbine blade alloy material of domestic high-end engines imported from country E is only around 1,400 degrees Celsius.

K03A actually reached 1350 degrees Celsius!

Peng Engui couldn't help but hit his head with his fist. He originally thought that the next result might be to develop a single crystal nickel alloy that could surpass K03A. After the direct results were obtained, more funds would be allocated from above, and their team could start Research on adding rare metals to alloys--

rhenium!

This is the most advanced research!

In the absence of sufficient basic results, it is meaningless to study the addition of rare metals. The role of rare metals cannot be played at all, and it is impossible to provide support from above.

Now everything has become very far away. It is impossible for them to develop a single crystal nickel alloy to replace K03A in a short time. No results will mean that they will not receive support, because aerospace engines have a lot of turbine blade materials, and even subsequent R\u0026D funding may become unguaranteed.

Peng Engui felt so bored that he simply stood up and went to the small laboratory next to him.

When he walked to the door of the laboratory, he saw Li Rongmao eating from a lunch box, and immediately scolded him angrily, "Xiao Li, are you still eating? So slow! I just watched you pass by."

Li Rongmao explained hurriedly, "No, Academician Peng, I was sorting out the data just now, and I just ate!"

“Eat, eat, eat, just know how to eat!”

Peng Engui continued to scold, "Have you finished the experimental analysis? Why don't you hurry up? Our research has been surpassed."

"No?"

Li Rongmao was about to retort, because he felt that ferronickel alloy and single crystal nickel were not in the same direction. They and the Capital Aeronautical Materials Research Institute were competitors, but he noticed Peng Engui's dark face and immediately stopped talking. He simply didn't Don’t eat anymore, but focus on organizing the information.

Peng Engui snorted angrily, turned around and walked out of the laboratory. He just saw Li Rongmao eating, and then he remembered that he hadn't eaten lunch either, and his stomach was growling with hunger.

"Let's go to that Northeastern restaurant outside..." he thought and walked out quickly.

In the laboratory.

Li Rongmao breathed a sigh of relief and felt very depressed. He graduated from the University of Hong Kong, studied for a doctorate with Peng Engui for four years, and made many research contributions.

However, the results of his doctoral studies are all credited to his supervisor, and he has to write his own thesis, which makes him just seem to have achieved the results, and his name is listed at the end every time.

After graduating with his Ph.D., Li Rongmao hoped to stay at the Academy of Sciences, so at Peng Engui's suggestion, he continued to work in the R\u0026D team.

At that time, Peng Engui's promise was to be promoted to associate researcher in one year, but two years have almost passed, and he has not been promoted to associate researcher. He can leave after one more year of contract expiration.

Li Rongmao is not worried about 'leaving'.

In Peng Engui's R\u0026D team, his R\u0026D contribution is the largest. He can be said to be the main figure in the R\u0026D team. He has very strong experience and ability. He knows that Peng Engui will definitely not let him go. He will probably be stuck for two and a half years. , apply for him to be promoted to associate researcher.

Li Rongmao was also very unwilling. His abilities and contributions were sufficient, and he was even qualified to be hired as an associate researcher when he graduated with a Ph.D., but what could be done?

Peng Engui is his direct superior, an academician of the Academy of Engineering, and a heavyweight in the field of domestic alloy materials.

In the eyes of others, working with Peng Engui on the research and development of national key projects is an opportunity that they will never encounter in life. But in fact, he believes that his contribution to the project is no less than that of Peng Engui.

"well……"

Li Rongmao let out a long sigh.

At this time, my phone suddenly received a message. I looked down and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. It said, "Excuse me, is this Dr. Li Rongmao?"

Li Rongmao replied with doubts, "I am."

"Bell~~~"

The phone's ringtone immediately started ringing.

Li Rongmao clicked the answer button and heard the other person say, "Dr. Li Rongmao, is it convenient to talk now?"

"It's not because foreign forces are trying to win over..."

Li Rongmao glanced around and saw that there was indeed no one else, so he said in a stern tone, "I won't talk about anything related to research."

The person on the other side seemed stunned for a moment, and then said after a long time, "No, Dr. Li, you are wrong. I didn't want to ask about your research."

"I am Shen Binghe. I am currently a lecturer and associate professor in the materials major at Yanhua University. I am also the director of the newly built metal materials laboratory. I am working on a turbine blade research and development project with Academician Zhao Yizhao."

Shen Binghe said quickly, "What we are doing is improving the direction of nickel-iron alloy, not single crystal nickel, and it does not conflict with your project. However, because the Metal Materials Laboratory has just been established, we are short of talents like you."

"I have communicated with Academician Zhao, and we both agree that you are the talent needed by the laboratory and the turbine blade research and development project."

“We would like to invite you to work in the Metal Materials Laboratory and participate in our turbine blade alloy research and development projects.”

"Don't worry, it's easy to talk about salary, benefits, and the school's professional title rating... You should know Academician Zhao, right? He thinks highly of you. As long as he nods, everything is easy to say..."

Shen Binghe stopped talking and raised Zhao Yi's sign, as if there was no need to explain.

Li Rongmao asked in confusion, "Do you want to recruit me to work on the turbine blade project? Together with Academician Zhao?"

"right!"

"Salary, benefits..."

"It's easy to say, Academician Zhao is optimistic about you."

"Hiss~~~"

Li Rongmao really couldn't believe it. He felt that the other person was a liar. Will the dignified Academician Zhao know about him?

How can it be!

But the other party does not look like a liar, because it is impossible for an ordinary liar to know that Academician Zhao is working on a turbine blade project, and it is even less likely to know that the research and development direction is nickel-iron alloy.

At this time, footsteps came from the corridor.

Li Rongmao knew that his colleague was coming back from dinner, so he quickly whispered, "I'll send you my email address and we'll contact you by email."
