I Am the President of the University

It takes a genius to remember the address of this website in one second: the fastest update! No ads!

A leader who was listening to a report from his subordinates in the office frowned.

Only a few people know his personal mobile phone. Most people or official business use the landline in the office.

When he saw the caller's name again, the leader was slightly startled.

The subordinate's emotional intelligence was not low. When he saw his leader looking at his mobile phone, he quickly found a reason to quit.

"Principal Chen, what's going on?"

"Ahem, if it weren't for a small matter, I wouldn't bother the leader."

The unknown leader sounded interested, "Oh? Is there anything else that can stump Principal Chen?"

“Have leaders ever heard of the vacuum hyperloop?”

"Vacuum hyperloop?" The leader narrowed his eyes, and he smelled an unusual smell.

As the leader of the Ministry of Science and Technology, although vacuum hyperloop technology has more to do with China Railway Corporation, some research work is coordinated and led by the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so it is naturally familiar to him.

Why is Chen Hao mentioning this?

Is it necessary to carry out research in this area?

After thinking about it, the leader gave friendly advice: "I know this. The vacuum hyperloop was introduced back to China in 2003 by Professor Zhang Yaoping of Southwest Jiaotong University. Southwest Jiaotong University is also at the forefront of domestic research in this field. In 2017, Beijing Jiaotong University and China Aviation Industry Corporation Science and Technology has also launched the hyperloop project.”

"If I enter Guanghua University now, it may be a little late."

Speaking of Professor Zhang Yaoping of Southwest Jiaotong University, there is still some ridicule.

In 2003, Professor Zhang Yaoping introduced the hyperloop project back to China. In 2006, after three applications, Professor Zhang Yaoping finally received the National Natural Science Foundation of China, with a funding of 260,000 yuan.

260,000 yuan... is actually the cost of one or two papers.

Small-scale research has basically produced no breakthroughs.

It wasn’t until 2013 that Musk, the troublemaker, proposed the “Hyperloop Plan” and came up with a specific plan. ET3 planned to build a 4.8-kilometer-long simulation system with a speed of 6,500 kilometers per hour by the end of the year for testing.

Although Musk and Hangzhou Ma are essentially MLM masters, California Ma is at least a relatively large-scale company.

After Musk heated up the topic of hyperloop, Professor Zhang Yaoping’s research team finally received a large investment.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. In 2016, Japan's low-temperature superconducting electric levitation technology made a major breakthrough. The top speed of the maglev train exceeded 603 kilometers per hour, setting a new world record. Countries have increased research on maglev train projects.

The Southwest Jiaotong University's hyper-high-speed rail project team has been in the spotlight for three years. On the contrary, the high-temperature superconducting maglev train project of Southwest Jiaotong University has received a large amount of scientific research funds. It is said that it will conduct a 620 kilometers per hour operation test in 2022. Once successful, It will break the world record set by Japan in 2016.

Whether it is maglev technology or vacuum hyperloop technology, Southwest Jiaotong University is the leader in this field. Beijing Jiaotong University and China Aviation Science and Technology are catching up behind it. Guanghua University is unlikely to be able to catch up in any aspect.

Chen Hao coughed lightly and said, "Leader, I understand your reminder, but what if we have made some breakthroughs?"

"Have you achieved a breakthrough?" The leader was stunned, and a huge storm surged in his heart.

This is a hyper-high-speed rail, claiming to be able to reach speeds of 2,000-4,000 kilometers per hour!

How can this be? !

After taking a deep breath to calm down the shock, the leader asked again worriedly: "Is it really possible?"

"able."

“How fast can it be achieved?”

"Speed..."

Looking at the person on the other end of the phone who was deep in thought, the leader's heart was hanging high and he couldn't help but become nervous.

"The maximum speed can be achieved in the early stage of about 1,200-1,500 kilometers per hour. It is hard to say how much the speed can be increased in the middle and later stages. It will definitely be no problem exceeding 2,000 kilometers per hour."

"really?"

"really."

The leader's heart, which had just been quiet for a while, was restless again, and his eyes were even more intense.

"This is a big deal!"

The leader calmed down and said in a very enthusiastic tone, "Principal Chen, did you encounter any problems?"

"Just ask! The country will always be your solid backing!"

Chen Hao said: "The problem is okay and can be solved. I just hope that the relevant departments can step up the review of the project approval."

The leader agreed directly without thinking, "No problem, I will definitely open a separate green channel for you!"

"I plan to have our Guanghua University be responsible for the design and manufacturing of the hyperloop train set, that is, the construction of the vacuum pipeline of the hyperloop..." Chen Hao paused and smiled bitterly, "The cost may be quite high, and Guanghua cannot afford it. We need the support of China Railway Corporation.”

The hyperloop project actually makes Guanghua University a limited amount of money, so it only makes money by selling hyperloop trains. This does not reach a certain level and may even result in losses.

What really costs a lot of money is the laying of vacuum pipelines...

China's high-speed railways are so developed, but China Railway Corporation is still operating at a loss. After all, this is a major national infrastructure project, and only a few routes have begun to make profits.

The leader waved his hand and said very proudly: "It's okay, if it can really be realized, our country will have to do everything possible to sell everything!"

Chen Hao subconsciously touched his nose. It's too early for you to say such big words. You will probably change your face when you see the price later.

"Do you need support from the sister units of Southwest Jiaotong University, Beijing Jiaotong University, and AVIC?"

"Ahem, no need for now, I will tell the leader if necessary."

When the conversation was about to end, the leader coughed a few times and said with a smile: "Principal Chen, although I believe your words, you have to submit a feasibility project application for the hyperloop in the next few days."

"Yes, I will send it to you later."

"That's good."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Hao was still thinking.

"The laboratory is about to be set up, but for researchers, we still have to start with Southwest Jiaotong University and Beijing Jiaotong University."

Even though there are many universities in China with the word "Transportation", in fact there are only two truly strong transportation schools, BJ Jiaotong University and Southwest Jiaotong University.

The strengths of both Jiaotong University and Beijing Jiaotong University are railway transportation. China's world-leading high-speed rail network is inseparable from the contributions of Southwest Jiaotong University and Beijing Jiaotong University.

In addition, in the field of highway transportation, the three strong universities are Southeast University, Tongji University and Chang'an University.

Southeast and Tongji have long been famous, and their bridges and highways are internationally renowned, so I won’t go into details.

Chang'an University is a little low-key, but its predecessor is not simple.

Chang'an University was formerly known as Northwest Transportation School and Xi'an Highway and Transportation University. This is an authentic transportation school, the real "Jiaotong University" located in Xi'an.

There were even rumors that during the height of the merger of colleges and universities that year, Xi'an Jiaotong University intended to merge with Xi'an Highway and Transportation University to solidify its name in transportation, but unfortunately it was not reached.

As for Shanghai Jiao Tong University, which is ranked TOP3, it only has the name of transportation but no actual transportation.

The "Transportation Engineering" submitted was ranked among the top 20 in the country in the subject evaluation of the Ministry of Education, even worse than East China Jiaotong University in Akarin Province.

Xi'an Jiaotong University, one of the two hip-hop brothers in C9, is even more embarrassing. It doesn't even have a School of Transportation. It is said to be Jiaotong University, but in fact it is more like a university of science and technology.

Therefore, if Guanghua University is to be established, as for researchers, ahem, Southwest Jiaotong University and Beijiao Jiaotong University are full of talents anyway, so it shouldn’t matter if they lose a little talent, right?

Beijing.

The leader who had been anxious all morning finally received Chen Hao's email.

When the secretary printed out the project application, the leader couldn't wait to read it.

When the price of vacuum pipeline laying was reached, the leader's heart skipped a beat and his eyelids twitched wildly.

"Isn't this price too high?"

ps: Today is my grandpa’s and grandma’s 80th birthday. I’m very sorry for the delay in eating and taking family photos.

If nothing else, there will be another chapter tonight.
