Chapter 57: Weakness is Original Sin

"Gu Yu has sent a paper again? Or is this kind of engineering so practical? It seems that the 'good luck' he showed during the summer vacation is just an illusion. Luck can't be good again and again, it can only be said that this person's observation and ability to make deep associations are really talented. ”

The day after Gu Yu received the journal, the scene of sighing and sighing about his achievements spread from the Central University of Science and Technology to Tunghai University.

During the lunch break, Professor Yuan Xiong took a look at the latest academic frontiers of his major, flipped through the latest related journals, and then found Gu Wan's new achievements.

There is no way, who let Yuan Xiong himself be engaged in atomic clocks, the latest progress in any related field, he is most concerned, and his graduate students will also retrieve the latest information every day.

After reading Gu Wan's paper, Yuan Xiong was in a weird mood.

He had to admit that Gu Yu should not be a traverser, or have some special abilities, this world still runs very scientifically.

Because all the knowledge points used by Gu Wan can be written by people who have completed their undergraduate physics studies in college.

It's just that there are so many physics teachers and students in the world, and none of them can associate these engineering application scenarios with potential precautions.

This also proves that Gu Play has a terrible vision for engineering coupling and integration.

"The road is simple, the ancients are honest and do not deceive me. With the most concise knowledge points, the complex problem is solved after a wonderful combination, and the future of this child is limitless. ”

"Professor, what do you feel about? Which senior brother has good grades?" Yuan Xiong was accompanied by a doctoral student with a high hairline, who was originally just eating with his mentor, but when he saw that Yuan Xiong's thigh was about to break, he couldn't help but pat himself.

"How is it possible, our Tunghai University, how many years have not produced such a genius, all brains are limited by the inherent paradigm to death, step by step, difficult. Yuan Xiong unceremoniously slammed with emotion.

This made Dr. Microbald very embarrassed and bored himself.

Yuan Xiong didn't realize it at all, and continued to make up for it: "There is no way, the Academy of Physical Sciences of the Central University of Science and Technology has Lao Ding in charge, and the top physics talents in China are all under him, and there is no way......

By the way, I'm talking about Gu Play. As soon as this article comes out, we will fine-tune the atomic fountain that we are going to develop in the future. ”

Yuan Xiong was quite reliable, half sighed, and finally thought of explaining the right thing.

As mentioned earlier, Gu Play's new paper is to discuss the current research and development goals of atomic clocks, which are not enough to actively solve the system problem after the coupling of the overall satellite project, so one more step should be done in the preset harmonic frequency of the atomic fountain.

If Yuan Xiong sees the paper and doesn't want to change it, won't he become a laughing stock for carving a boat and begging for a sword in the future.

However, after hearing this, the slightly bald doctoral student next to him was slightly discolored: "Professor, our time is already very tight, and the atomic fountain is the biggest difficulty in the next stage of the entire atomic clock project.

In the next two and a half months to three months, we will focus on solving this atomic fountain, and every step of the research and development schedule has been arranged. Now suddenly change the demand and add things, and the progress will be too late.

We deliver trial production, go to trial production, and then supply samples to NASA in Oceania, with a maximum of one to two weeks of time margin. Or, let's talk about the above, we have already realized this problem, let the second test star of GPS, for the time being, do not use the version of differential preset harmonics, and in the future, when the third test star is used, we will completely change it?"

"Is time so tight......" Yuan Xiong subconsciously asked, and naturally felt that the Dongpo meat in front of him was not fragrant.

Actually, the time schedule, Yuan Xiong himself is also clear, he just didn't think of this layer just now.

However, Dr. Wei Bald thought that the tutor had forgotten, and hurriedly reminded and explained: "Professor, it must be tight, you think, the Science and Technology Commission and the Department of Science and Technology, dare to believe that at the end of September and the beginning of October, the relevant research information can be changed from confidential to declassified, so that the people of the Oceania can know, isn't it too late to catch up after the people of the Oceania wake up? ”

It's a fact.

For example, why can a cesium atomic clock sell for $2 million? This price has actually been calculated. If it is low, the profit will be too thin, and it will not be possible to spend so much energy on research and development.

But if it is higher, it will not work, and that may provoke the Oceanic people to delay the launch of the test satellite, or let MIT scientists work overtime 24 hours a day, use parallel trial and error to push forward the progress of scientific research, and become self-reliant.

Everything must be on a delicate balance point in order to make the Yankees feel that "this little money, buy ready-made ones, forget it, don't toss".

A scientific research competition forces others to have no room for middlemen to make the difference, and at the same time, it is also forcing themselves to the precipice of no way out.

The profits brought by scientific progress are never easy to earn.

"What can I do about this?" Yuan Xiong felt that Dongpo meat was no longer fragrant, but that he couldn't eat it at all.

Fortunately, he didn't have a chance to worry for too long, because at this point in his lunch break, an uninvited guest came to the door.

"Professor Yuan, I went to the laboratory to find you, and I heard Associate Professor Liu say that you are eating, so I came here. ”

The people who came were smiling, it was one of the new vice presidents of Fengyun Fund, Zhou Xuan.

At the beginning, he competed with He Zihang for the vacated position of the "outgoing vice president". Now that the winner has been decided, the vice president has officially left, so Zhou Xuan is also the vice president.

At the age of thirty, in a venture capital fund that manages billions of funds, as a vice president, Zhou Xuan can be regarded as a small winner in life.

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhou, and I happened to have some difficulties here, so I want to discuss it with you. Yuan Xiong sorted out his emotions and was thinking about how to speak.

"I know your difficulties, so I'm here to help you bring you a solution to your problems. Professor Yuan, we are old friends, and I won't hurt you. Zhou Xuan said with a spring breeze on his face, very kind, so harmless to humans and animals.

Yuan Xiong couldn't help but feel a chill in his bones, and he trembled: "What does Mr. Zhou have to say?"

Zhou Xuan slapped a document on the table with a "snap": "My brother's paper, have you also read it?" I know that you have the ability to handle this additional need, but it is estimated that it will be too late." Therefore, let the more specialized elite soldiers and strong generals help you share your worries.

As you know, you are only an academic authority in the field of atomic clocks in China, but if you really want to subdivide it down, specifically to 'atomic state excitation and control', in conscience, the Central University of Science and Technology is still a little stronger than Tunghai University.

Fortunately, I contacted the Central University of Science and Technology, and they are always ready to explore, if only the 'atomic fountain' is a sub-item, you can cooperate in the development, the more the better, wouldn't it be beautiful?"

"How is this possible, if they delay something, who is it?" Before Yuan Xiong could speak, the slightly bald doctoral student beside him couldn't help it.

The main thing is that this guy's girlfriend is in Associate Professor Liu's group, and he has a very good relationship with Associate Professor Liu, and he has a certain entanglement of interests.

Associate Professor Liu is precisely Yuan Xiong's subordinate who is responsible for the sub-project of "Atomic Fountain".

If he is divided, not only will the budget and projects be gone, but the opportunity to eat and drink spicy food will be gone, and his girlfriend's graduation project will be a problem, and he may be left by his mentor as a cheap laborer for two more years.

So he had to fight.

Although on the surface, he was complaining about his mentor.

"Xiao Lu, don't worry, after all, they are representatives of the capital, and we believe that Mr. Zhou can give a fair solution. Yuan Xiong was afraid of offending people, so he was more serious and persuaded the students.

Zhou Xuan said with confidence: "Isn't it easy to divide the responsibility, if it is demarcated, and in the end there is a problem with the atomic fountain, then chase after the Central University of Science and Technology, if there is a problem with other sub-items, it is your problem."

As for the conditions, anyway, our $20 million funds have not yet been fully funded, and the follow-up will be 3 million less, and a total of 17 million will be given to you. The 3 million will be allocated to the atomic fountain project team of the Central University of Science and Technology. ”

"You're in breach of contract!" said Dr. Microbald angrily.

"How is it a breach of contract? The clause is clearly written, not only the technical route, but also the final effect indicators. It's because you didn't take into account the need for differential preset harmonics, and you didn't expect that there would be a time difference between heaven and earth without this function, who is to blame?

The papers have been pointed out for you, you haven't had time to do it yet, let's find someone to help you get it, is this still a breach of contract?" Zhou Xuan's tone suddenly raised an octave, who let him take advantage of it.

"That'...... So what if we can do it on time? Aren't we just not sleeping?"

Zhou Xuan: "You said that you could do it? If you can't do it in the end, will you compensate for the part of the case that 'refuses to rectify and lead to the expansion of losses'?

Weakness is original sin.

"How is this possible...... Yuan Xiong took the initiative to soften, "Mr. Zhou, don't get excited, we are all here to do things well." I am willing to accept your suggestion, but please be fair in the division of responsibilities. ”

"That's natural, if the Central University of Science and Technology messes up, they won't be able to get the $3 million in scientific research funds. Zhou Xuan said blufffully.

But actually, he must be helping his cousin. If the money can be paid in batches in advance as expenses, it must still be paid. It's just that if something happens in the end, the balance will not be settled.

At that time, the Central University of Science and Technology will not have much loss, and the cost caused by the occupation of the laboratory at most cannot be fully recovered.

If there is still a gap, the contracting company registered by my aunt who accepted the subcontract will go bankrupt, it is originally a limited liability, and the capital of 700,000 yuan has been lost, what do you still want?

In the afternoon of the same day, Yuan Xiong signed a supplementary agreement, and the people from the Donghai Prefecture Science and Technology Department and the relevant administrative personnel of Tunghai University also signed it.

Lu Biao, a slightly bald doctoral student, hated and told his girlfriend the bad news, but there was nothing he could do.

"Grass, Gu play, I don't believe you don't have any academic misconduct, this beam is settled. Lao Tzu/Lao Niang is not as good as you in learning, and I can't expose you if I don't believe it!"

As the so-called Shengmi Endou Mi Hatred, these ungrateful guys obviously forgot: a few months ago, the project was originally won for them by Gu Wan and Zhou Xuan.
