Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

The commendation meeting has come to an end, but it is also a wish of all the scientific researchers who have shed their youth and blood for controllable fusion.

Compared with other people, in addition to a Lingyun medal, Lu Zhou also got an hour of correct time.

Regarding the future of the star-2 demonstration reactor project team, the state also needs to refer to the opinion of the general manager of the project.

After listening to the question of the elders asking themselves, Lu Zhou thought for a moment and said.

“The star demonstration reactor base has already completed its historical mission, and the significance of continuing to keep it is not great. My suggestion is that the technical staff and some core management units will be reorganized into new institutions or incorporated into existing institutions. To be responsible for the operation of the fusion reactor."

The star-2 demonstration reactor project is a huge scientific research project. In order to coordinate the research resources among various research institutions, a large management organization is also necessary.

But now the entire demonstration reactor project has been completed, there is not such a large scientific research project needs support, there are not so many departments and projects need to be coordinated, the rest of the management is a bit bloated and redundant.

The old man nodded and expressed his understanding.

"The people in the nuclear industry group and I also suggested this. The meeting we discussed here concluded that the demonstration reactor project team was reorganized, and the main technical personnel and some management teams were formed to form a new nuclear power company. It is temporarily operated as East Asia Power, and is responsible for the domestic fusion reactor project and the construction of supporting facilities for cross-regional transmission projects in Southeast Asia and Central Asia."

East Asia Power.

Listening to this name, it seems that the country’s ambition is not small...

Lu Zhou’s heart was also slightly surprised.

After all, the first fusion reactor was built, and the fusion reactors in the south and west have not yet been established. The high-level officials have begun to prepare for "supporting the third world brothers."

However, in a sense, the state has some reason to do so.

It’s better to be happy than to be happy. It’s better to play with a group of younger brothers. The market competitiveness of the whole East Asia region has increased, the influence of Huaguo in the region has increased, and the status of rmb in the global market will also rise with the tide...

But for these things that have nothing to do with research, Lu Zhou is not very interested.

Old man: "The management of the demonstration reactor project team is too bloated at present. The newly established East Asia Power has no way to eat it all. The nuclear industry means that these managers can be repatriated to their original jobs. Units, they can't take over part of the unit, but I always feel that it is a pity to dismiss it in the same place. Do you see if there is any more suitable arrangement?"

"It’s a pity that it was dissolved in the same place..." Lu Zhou agreed to nod, and said with some emotion.

A huge scientific research project not only trains the research dogs who are rushing in the first line, but also cultivates countless management talents.

If these talents are broken up and sent back to the original work unit, it is largely a waste.

After all, the most important thing for business units is talents in this area. One thing is that they can't wait to open the two halves and give them four people to manage. This is one of the reasons why state-owned enterprises are inefficient in their daily operations.

What's more, these people have been separated from the original unit for so long, and the vacant posts have long been separated. Even if you return to the original unit, you will not be able to find your own position.

After thinking for a while, Lu Zhou’s heart suddenly moved slightly.

A question he had considered a long time ago, emerged from his mind.

“It’s better to let them be renewed in their new form than to repatriate these people to their original work units.”

The old man asked: "What is the new form?"

"Yes," Lu Zhou nodded. "Can I talk about my thoughts?"

The old man smiled and said: "Of course, what I want to know is your thoughts."

Lu Zhou: "I used to exchange visits in Germany for a while. I think they have a lot of places to learn from in the management of scientific research projects, especially in the medium and long-term strategic direction facing society, science and industry. The mode of operation of scientific research projects."

The old man thought: "For example?"

Lu Zhou: "For example, the Hefholtz Association's pof funding model, such as the Max Planck Institute's open network of corporate and R&D institutions, seems to me to help improve the conversion rate of research results of a research system. And the conversion rate of scientific research results is what we lack."

Huaguo’s investment in scientific research is definitely not weak, even in terms of oecd’s purchasing power parity, ranking second in the world, second only to the United States.

However, as opposed to the huge capital investment, the performance of the Chinese research institutions on the issue of the conversion rate of scientific research results is rather unsatisfactory.

Logically speaking, this should not be.

After all, in the allocation of resources for research funding, China has always had a tradition of biasing engineering. Compared with science research, it is more inclined to throw money for engineering projects.

The problem of the conversion rate of scientific research results is only one of them, as well as all aspects of scientific research efficiency.

If you want to ensure the advantages of technology, it is not enough to lead at the starting line.

The technological advantage itself is a process of dynamic balance.

Compared with the research of controllable fusion itself, Lu Zhou hopes that through this large-scale scientific research project, it can leave something other than the results itself.

It is as if the Manhattan plan brought to the United States not only the atomic bomb itself, but also the more valuable Argonne, Brookhaven and other national laboratories with strong strength in medium and long-term research projects.

For him personally, this will make his research easier.

"For the German experience, we don't have to learn from it, but for the good part we can learn it."

“For example, we can transform this huge scientific research organization into a window connecting enterprises and research institutions based on the experience of the production and research cooperation left by the star-2 demonstration reactor project, with reference to the operation mode of the Max Planck Society and the Helmholtz Association. ""

"Through this research and development consortium, we can focus on the research of medium and long-term research projects in the energy, aerospace, and information industries, and let the funds be implemented as much as possible into 'useful projects'. At the same time, let the qualified social capital and research and development units Also participate, not just the part of the system."

After listening to Lu Zhou’s suggestion, the old man seriously considered it for a long time.

"What do you mean by using the rest of the management talents to create a Chinese version of the Max Planck Society?"

It seems that this is true.

It is better to say that when he was visiting Germany, he had this plan.

Lu Zhou nodded: "Exactly."

Looking at Lu Zhou, the old man smiled and said: "You went out to study a circle, but it moved all the good things out."

Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly and did not speak.

Learn this thing.

Of course, learning is not just knowledge, but good experience is of course also learned.

The index finger knocked on the arm of the chair, and the old man meditated for a while, opening his mouth.

"I think what you said makes sense. You can give it a try."

Anyway, those talents are more than a waste of repatriating the original units. He also agrees with Lu Zhou’s point.

Instead of letting these talents be wasted, let them play a part in this pilot project.

If it succeeds, then of course it is a good thing.

If you do a yellow job, it doesn't matter.

What's more, the precedent of the Jinling Institute of Advanced Studies is in front, and he also believes that Lu Zhou can do this well.

After all, the old man stood up.

"As you said, set up ... Eastern Research and Development Consortium! Focus on medium and long-term issues in the three major industrial R&D projects of aerospace, energy and information."

"As for how to get it, you have the final say."
