I Am the President of the University

"Leader, how can this be done? Professor Zhou Haoshen is from our Nanjing University. He should be our Nanjing University. How can he be given to Guanghua University?!"

"How can this be given? Old Lu, the department wants to coordinate. We just hope that you can cancel the talent introduction of Professor Zhou. Guanghua has also contacted Professor Zhou, but Professor Zhou said he agreed to you, so there is no way to refuse."

Hearing this, President Lu was furious. It turned out that the kid from the south had been thinking about their Nanjing University people for a long time.

"Leader, we at Nanjing University are ready to wait for Professor Zhou to return to China to serve as the director of the Energy Department. If he is let go, how can I explain to the school committee?"

"Old Lu, you have a lot of talents at Nanjing University. A department director can definitely be solved internally. This project is of great importance. It is all for the country's scientific research cause. I have to let you down."

"Is it the lithium-air battery project?"

After President Lu finished speaking, Leader Zeng on the other end of the phone was silent.

It is not surprising that the president of Nanjing University knows these things.

"Yes."

"When Professor Zhou was at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology in Japan, he was the head of the lithium-air battery research group. This project can be handed over to our Nanjing University as the lead unit!" Nanjing University President Lu said excitedly.

After all, Guanghua is definitely not as good as their Nanjing University in his eyes.

It's nonsense to hand over such a difficult task to Guanghua!

Who knew that Zeng's answer was beyond his expectations.

"Old Lu, can you make a photon screen at Nanjing University?"

"No..."

"Can you make a photon core?"

"No..."

Leader Zeng said with a smile: "That's it, the leaders above think that Guanghua can conquer photon screens and photon cores that have made breakthroughs, so lithium-air batteries are not impossible."

President Lu: "..."

Wait, photon screens, photon cores and lithium-air batteries are completely different types!

How can this be compared!

But the big leaders just believe that Guanghua can do it.

President Lu opened his mouth and closed it again, with a depressed look on his face. At this point, it's useless to say more.

"Then we at Nanjing University should also participate in this project! We can't let Guanghua eat meat while we at Nanjing University can't even drink soup, right?!" President Lu said in a tough attitude.

This is his last bottom line. After all, such major national projects must be tackled together with several universities and research institutes.

Just like the rocket at the beginning, it will be divided into several parts and handed over to different universities and research institutes to solve research and development problems.

"No problem, I agreed on behalf of Guanghua. After all, you Nanjing University has also paid a lot." Leader Zeng breathed a sigh of relief. He was originally planning to cut meat, but he didn't expect President Lu's conditions to be so simple.

The phone was hung up.

President Lu was restless and wandered around the office for more than ten minutes.

It's really hard to accept!

The talent that he was optimistic about, and he was from their Nanjing University, but he flew to their Guanghua University.

This is too outrageous!

The important thing is that he can't refuse it. Who asked the department to come out as a lobbyist? If he refused, it would inevitably leave a stubborn evaluation to the higher-ups.

"Alas! What's going on?"

With a heavy sigh, President Lu sat back in his seat and began to write an email to Professor Zhou.

As he wrote, he became even angrier.

At the back, he wrote while cursing someone.

……

Guanghua University, Lithium-Air Battery Technology Laboratory.

"Professor Bunier, something big has happened."

Looking at the sudden appearance of President Chen, especially the serious expression on his face.

It seems that something important has happened.

Professor Bunier interrupted the conversation with the researcher and walked into the office with Chen Hao.

As soon as the door was closed, Professor Bunier couldn't help asking, "Professor Chen, what's wrong?"

Chen Hao sat in the chair, his eyes flashing with guilt.

He hesitated again and again, and said reluctantly: "Professor Bunier, I just got some information from the Ministry of Science and Technology, some good news and some bad news."

"It's okay, Professor Chen, just tell me, as long as the lithium-air battery project is not terminated, I can accept everything else." Bunier smiled, and he still trusted Chen Hao very much, otherwise he would not have come to China from the United States across the ocean to realize lithium-air batteries.

Chen Hao smiled bitterly, this matter really caught him off guard.

After Chen Hao finished speaking, Professor Bunier was silent.

Seeing this, Chen Hao said very seriously: "Professor Bunier, if you have any objections, we reject this plan. Anyway, it's not impossible for us to study it ourselves."

After all, this project was brought by Professor Bunier, and it was agreed that the other party would be the person in charge. This is too inhumane.

"No, no, Chen, you worry too much. I have no objection to this matter. As long as the lithium-air battery project can proceed smoothly, it's fine." Buniel knew that Chen Hao had misunderstood, and laughed, "I was just thinking, if Zhou is coming, should we hold a party to welcome him?" Chen Hao was very upset. Foreigners like to have parties. They hold a party when they move to a new house, a party when their children get the first place in the exam, and even a party when they break up. But in his heart, he was relieved. "Professor Buniel, I feel relieved if you think so."

"Hey, Chen, we must hold a grand party when the time comes. Zhou and I have a pretty good relationship, and I'm already looking forward to working with him!" Bunir said with a smile.

"Of course, respect our lofty ideals!"

The communication with Professor Bunir went so smoothly that Chen Hao left happily.

But he didn't notice that there was a trace of loss in Professor Bunir's eyes.

The position of the project leader is gone. It would be false to say that he doesn't care, but for the smooth progress of the project, sometimes it is worth sacrificing some of his own interests.

Mainly because of my foreign status.

It seems that you can also consider becoming a Chinese citizen.

…

When Chen Hao walked out of the research institute, he originally wanted to visit the Optical Core Research Center next to him, but just after walking a few steps, Leader Zeng called again.

"President Chen, we have already communicated with Nanjing University. As for Professor Zhou Haoshen's decision, we still don't know." Leader Zeng seemed to be in a bad mood and said angrily.

"Thank you very much, but don't worry, this will definitely be fine." Chen Hao said happily.

Leader Zeng almost forgot to explain this matter, so he said: "By the way, this time the national lithium battery key research and development plan will have a central allocation of 100 million yuan, which will be received in two years. If it is not enough, you can submit another application."

"Well, actually, there's no need for that. Our Guanghua University has enough funds, and we also got funding from CATL." Chen Hao refused with some embarrassment.

Why are various universities actively applying for this [National Key Research and Development Plan]?

Although there will be some national funding, the most important thing is that it can greatly improve the strength of the school, and it is also helpful for faculty and staff to select professional titles and find jobs for doctors.

Just taking this funding will cause some trouble.

Such as patented technologies.

Leader Zeng seemed to know what Chen Hao was worried about, and explained with a smile: "Don't worry, the central government's provision of this funding is just to show its attitude. The ministry only has a few requirements."

"What's the request?" Chen Hao asked.

"Patented technology doesn't matter, but we must ensure that the company and factory must be domestic, and foreign capital cannot be allowed to enter!" Leader Zeng said solemnly.

"If that's the case, then no problem." Chen Hao said with a relaxed smile.

Chen Hao still has some understanding of this national key research and development plan.

In fact, it is the integration of some past plans, such as the top 973 plan.

It is still difficult to apply for the 973 Program project. Most people apply for the National Natural Science Foundation of China, which ranges from tens of thousands to tens of millions. However, this national key research and development program basically requires tens of millions of funds, or even more than 100 million. Also often.

…

That afternoon, Rongcheng South Station.

Jiang Lin and the other three were sitting on the high-speed train heading to Yongcheng.

As for why we don’t take a plane, it’s naturally because there is no direct route from Rongcheng to Yongcheng.

Looking at the list in his hand, Jiang Lin gradually fell into silence.

"Now that we are out of the province, the subsequent enrollment work will not be so easy."

(Please give me a monthly ticket!)
