Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

"How's the situation inside?" Radell, who just flew over from the capital, smoked Marlboro in boredom, throwing the butt of the cigarette all over the floor.

"I don't know. The materials brought in seem quite normal. The main ones are solanesol, and some ethanol and acetone are commonly used solvents, and the amount is not large." They either flew over overnight, or went out in the early morning, and they were all very sleepy.

Radell lit another cigarette and asked, "Refined solanesol? Where is it produced?"

"Of course it's refined solanesol, made in China, invested by our company, from..." This man looked at the paper in his hand, commented on "Yunnan", and said: "There is a supporting factory for tobacco companies there , to produce crude solanesol, and then shipped to..."

"Understood." Radell was too lazy to listen, and asked again: "What about the other things? How many are there?"

"I don't know. I can't get in now. Yang's lawyer is looking at it. These materials were provided by the Chinese themselves."

"Have you verified it?"

"Verified, Chinese officials don't care about these things." They are all technicians who have stayed in China for a period of time, and the British are familiar with the temperament of Chinese officials. Of course, the bureaucracy of the British Empire is also a general style, which makes it easier for the British to understand China.

Radell stomped his feet and said, "I didn't expect a Chinese to find a lawyer so quickly. He set off earlier than us. Uh...Did Yang Rui block the news?"

"How can it be blocked? The manager of WestJet's production management was sent by Zeneca, a Hong Kong native. He was sure that he called earlier than Yang Rui."

"But Yang Rui knows better than us what happened and how important the situation in the workshop is. Damn it, can't we go in and take a look first?"

The fellow Britons fell silent. They actually tried to enter, but after being firmly stopped by Yang Rui, the domestic headquarters did not support their forced entry. Because the British technicians present are all very ordinary technicians.

In a multinational company like Zeneca, the headquarters research institute is naturally full of pHDs, and a master’s degree is not as good as a dog. However, in the Asia-Pacific region, Zeneca has not yet enough to send excellent researchers as technicians.

In the field of coenzyme Ql0, Yang Rui has stood at the top level in the world more than once or twice. Although it is not a highly valued academic field, Yang Rui's level has also been recognized by Zeneca. Every cooperation between the two parties is the accumulation of real gold and silver.

In contrast, Zeneca’s research headquarters has no achievements worth mentioning in terms of coenzyme Ql0, not to mention the technicians sent to the Far East. Their main job is to look at the technical maintenance manuals and ensure that Zeneca’s products are guaranteed step by step. normal operation of the factory.

Zeneca headquarters is very worried. Even if Radell and others are forced to enter the workshop of the WestJet factory, with their experience and knowledge level, they cannot make reasonable inferences.

Wanting to enter the workshop to observe the situation is more of a spontaneous behavior of these technicians.

They also hung around in the coenzyme Ql0 business for several years, and as soon as they got the news from the WestJet factory, several researchers who realized the special situation rushed over quickly.

Unfortunately, no matter how fast they were, there was no Yang Ruikuai on the scene.

Yang Rui is also more aware of the development of coenzyme Ql0 than they are.

What kind of technology, what kind of coenzyme Ql0 can be produced best, and what can be obtained at worst, have been summarized in detail in later generations.

This is like penicillin. In the 1960s, there were very few companies that could produce penicillin, and there was no way to control the output and quality. It is very transparent. It is up to the manufacturer to choose to spend a little more money to obtain high-quality penicillin, or to use an economical method to obtain ordinary penicillin, or to spend one year less to produce penicillin that is less stable in treatment.

The technology adopted by Yang Rui should have put forward higher requirements for the factory building.

A plant with a low cleanliness produces good quality coenzyme Ql0 with such variability, which is of considerable value.

In other words, the current situation in the WestJet factory is almost the most economical state that the second-generation plant extraction method can achieve.

This state cannot be calculated by calculation methods.

Researchers, or factory technicians, often have to work and try for a long time to find the best ratio for factory production.

Temperature, pressure, concentration, solid-liquid ratio, extraction time and even the addition time of acetone and ethanol will all affect the final result.

Of course, you can use orthogonal experiments in the laboratory to try it out, but in the factory, analyzing environmental factors is enough for a researcher to drink a pot.

Not every generation of technology can achieve the optimal ratio.

Using aircraft technology as an example, is it true that biplanes must be developed to their peak before monoplanes can be developed? Is it true that propeller aircraft must be developed to the peak before it can develop and hold the aircraft?

of course not.

On the contrary, many technologies are not cost-effective to develop to the peak. It is the most normal choice to adopt new technologies and surpass high-level old technologies with mid-level new technologies.

Top old technologies are often developed by coincidence, rather than forced research at the cost of a lot of money.

From Yang Rui's point of view, now is the time for coincidence.

While searching for related technologies in his mind, he recorded all the numbers on the instruments, and he even had someone bring a camera to record every conceivable variable.

After finishing these, one day and one night passed, Yao Yue was busy taking notes, and only took a little leisure during the day, looking at the red blood in Yang Rui's eyes, said: "If it really doesn't work, take a rest for a day, and do it tomorrow."

"No, the wolves outside are waiting. If we find the reason, they will probably act according to the contract. If we can't find it, Zeneca will find a way to come in." Now is the eve of the price war of Zeneca. A method that will obviously reduce costs, Zeneca definitely wants to study it.

"Then don't wait too long, I'll let someone cook some porridge and bring it in." Yao Yue rubbed her eyes and looked at Yang Rui worriedly.

"You can't eat in the workshop..." Yang Rui looked up at the messy workshop, then at the hungry workers, and said with a smile: "Forget it, let them bring in some food."

The workers cheered softly, and He Haichuan, who was familiar with Yang Rui, smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yang, I thought you were not hungry."

He Haichuan was a technician in the biochemical workshop of the West Fort Meat Factory, and now he is also the main force of the WestJet factory. He learned a lot from Yang Rui, and he cooperated with Yang Rui even more. The workers of the WestJet factory can persist for a day and a night Not leaving, not working, it all depends on He Haichuan, Ning Min, and Tian Shichang from the Ruixue group to help maneuver and manage.

Yang Rui sighed, and said: "No one knows what the situation is, so they don't know how long it will last. We can't keep adjusting the working conditions, right? I seem to have heard the alarm just now?"

"There is a steam pipe with too much pressure, and it's okay now. But it really can't keep this situation for too long." The factory is not like a laboratory, and various values ​​​​float within a large range, and not every value It is easy to adjust, such as pipeline pressure, if there is too much steam, the pressure will be high, and if there is little steam, the pressure will be low, but the amount of steam is fired by the boiler, not a button on the computer.

Thirty years later, some unattended and highly automated machines in Europe and the United States can fine-tune the working conditions of factories, but those machines are worth tens of millions or even billions, let alone the 8 years. China's advanced technology, even if it is available, cannot be used by Chinese companies. The same is true for boilers. It is common for foreigners to use heavy oil and natural gas. Chinese companies use coal when they can, and they are reluctant to even use good coal.

Although the WestJet factory is a new factory invested by the British, it is also a new factory at the level of the Far East in 1983. Some parameters are easy to adjust, and some are difficult to adjust, which have already begun to affect production.

"Do another set and stick to it." Yang Rui said, going into battle in person, helping to fill the materials and record the parameters.

He Haichuan didn't say anything, and went back to make arrangements.

Fortunately, there are not many people in the WestJet factory, a total of more than a dozen workers. Although everyone is tired and hungry, with one-on-one comfort, they can persevere.

Not long after, when the food was brought in, a new plate of coenzyme Ql0 was produced, which was still the size of a grain of rice and had a lower gloss, but the quantity was reduced by a quarter.

This is a sign that the parameters seriously deviate from the design indicators.

Yang Rui sighed and said, "End of the test, you should adjust the equipment according to the regulations."

Although there is a lot of information in his mind, after all, he doesn't know everything. Even if Yang Rui didn't touch some mainstream technologies when he was studying, he still needs to understand them, but he doesn't necessarily understand them if they are slightly off the beaten path.

The special feature of coenzyme Ql0 is that no chemical synthesis method has been developed, which makes the researchers of coenzyme Ql0 keep switching between plant extraction method and microbial method. During this period, they do not know much about the patented technology registered and used.

Several times in a row, Yang Rui searched for information while researching, and finally found a few similar papers, all of which were written in the UU era, discussing the relationship between the temperature and concentration of materials, but it is also a purely empirical summary. As a result, by inverting the principle, some things can be fabricated to some extent, but it is not always true if there is any profound scientific truth.

However, the scientific nature is weaker, but its economical nature is highlighted.

The relationship between the temperature, concentration and pressure of materials is not constant, but changes according to the overall conditions in the production process. In classical terms, it affects the whole body.

If the temperature changes, the concentration and pressure must be set to a relatively special value... And how to set it specifically, there are a series of accurate or inaccurate formulas.

Few papers will write out this kind of formula involving patents, just like Yang Rui's papers, he will hide a few core points to ensure his own technology leadership.

However, the technical core of later generations is different after all, Yang Rui wrote and drew by himself while comparing.

"The adjustment of the equipment is finished." Not long after, He Haichuan came to report.

"Reproduce a set of products."

"clear."

This time, the newly produced coenzyme Ql0 has undergone tremendous changes.

The crystals became smaller, the largest ones were only half the size of a grain of rice, and most importantly, obvious impurities could be seen in the crystals.

"This is a fifth-class product." He Haichuan scratched his head and couldn't understand how the instruments and equipment he had adjusted according to the regulations had undergone such a huge change.

"This is a normal product, Tian Shichang. From now on, every time you produce a set, you must record all the parameters. Stop production after ten sets are produced, and wait for the clean workshop to be completed again." After Yang Rui finished speaking, he was in the workshop. I went around in a circle, greeted everyone, and went out.

At the door, Radell and Zheng Jianming were waiting eagerly.
