Chapter 119: Why not eat minced meat
Hearing Feng Xiaochen's question, Xia Yulin was stunned for a moment before reacting. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info just now, seeing Feng Xiaochen looking at Yan Baitong's paper page by page, with words still in his mouth, Xia Yulin was already stunned.
In Xia Yulin's mind, Feng Xiaochen is just a translator, and it is already a very good thing to be able to master two foreign languages at a young age, and it is impossible to have any professional knowledge other than language. Xia Yulin even looked down on Feng Xiaochen a little, which is also a common problem of intellectuals, who always like to use their own strengths to compare the shortcomings of others, and then find self-esteem from them.
But Feng Xiaochen's performance was beyond Xia Yulin's expectations. It is just that he can recognize the professional vocabulary on the title of the paper, after all, he has just accompanied a German bearing company to invest in Nanjiang, and he must have done his homework on professional vocabulary. The problem is that he can read the ghost-like formulas in the paper, which is completely unscientific. You know, almost 2/3 of this article is in mathematical derivation, which is a big lump of matrix equations, and what are the letter symbols such as α, β, θ, ω, etc., even Xia Yulin himself feels dizzy when he looks at it, how does this little translator read it?
Could it be that he was just pretending to be a fork, but he didn't understand a word?
Xia Yulin was naturally inconvenient to ask this question, he hummed a few words, recovered from the embarrassment, and then said: "Boss Yan, except for attending classes all day long, he just stays in the laboratory, and he doesn't have any other hobbies. ”
"Does he publish a lot of articles in such international journals?" Feng Xiaochen asked, raising the magazine in his hand.
"Not much. Xia Yulin said, "It's not easy to send foreign articles, and it costs a lot of money. Needless to say, the postage fee for submission is really strange, and what page fee is charged for foreign magazines. When we publish articles in domestic publications, we get a manuscript fee, and foreign countries not only do not give us manuscript fees, but also come to us in turn to collect money, what do you think is the matter? When Lao Yan published this article, I heard that he paid 15 pounds for the page fee, 15 pounds. ”
"This money...... Can't the school reimbursement?" Feng Xiaochen asked in surprise.
Xia Yulin shook his head: "How can this be reimbursed? When a teacher gets the manuscript fee, he won't say that he wants to hand it over to the school, right? Publishing an article is something that can be famous, and some teachers are still willing to pay out of their own pockets." However, the page fee for Yan to publish this article, and the foreign exchange used by me was applied for by me, or he would have gotten the foreign exchange. ”
"It's just too hard. Feng Xiaochen said hypocritically, he had more confidence in his heart to pry Yan Baitong, at least, he had foreign exchange in his hand, and he promised to help him reimburse the page fees of all international magazines in the next 10 years. If Yan Baitong is really as Xia Yulin said, he only wants to become famous and start a family, this condition is attractive to him.
"Director Xia, is Teacher Yan at school now? If it's convenient, can you take me to meet him?" Feng Xiaochen asked.
"Do you want to ask him to come to you to help?" Xia Yulin asked.
Feng Xiaochen said: "Yes, what's the matter, isn't it allowed in the school?"
Xia Yulin hurriedly shook his head: "Of course not." Your joint venture company is a very important enterprise in the province, and we are obliged to provide services for such enterprises. I just think it's not easy to invite Yan to you. He doesn't give face to the Metallurgical Department, and although the face of your State Economic Commission is bigger, he may also refuse. ”
Feng Xiaochen said with a smile: "Director Xia, don't worry, I won't use the big hat of the Economic Commission to press him." For scholars like Mr. Yan, we pay attention to knowing reason, moving with emotion, and inducing them...... Uh-uh, I mean, I'll talk to him properly. ”
"Yes, yes, I have to talk about it, I think Yan is also a sensible person. Xia Yulin replied with a dry smile. Although Feng Xiaochen's sentence of "tempting to profit" was not finished, Xia Yulin also understood. There are also some teachers in the school who are hired by outside units to do some things, nominally to support the production line, but in fact, they are interested in the subsidies given by others. Feng Xiaochen seems to be planning to use the money to smash Yan Baitong, but he doesn't know how high the price offered by the joint venture will be...... , Xia Yulin secretly thought in his heart.
After packing up the documents on the table, Xia Yulin accompanied Feng Xiaochen out of the office and went to the laboratory building of the College of Engineering. Sure enough, Xia Yulin's guess, when they walked into Yan Baitong's laboratory, they saw him lying on the experimental table, fiddling with a large pile of messy equipment in front of him, not knowing what project he was busy with. The students who were helping next to him had already seen Xia Yulin and shouted "Director Xia", but Yan Baitong didn't seem to hear anything, and didn't even raise his head.
"Boss Yan!" Xia Yulin walked behind Yan Baitong, shouted, and raised his hand to pat Yan Baitong on the shoulder.
Feng Xiaochen grabbed Xia Yulin, smiled and whispered, "Director Xia, don't worry, wait for Teacher Yan to finish it." ”
"Who knows how long he will have to do this experiment......" Xia Yulin muttered, but he didn't bother Yan Baitong again. The students brought stools for the two of them, asked them to sit aside, and then went back to help Yan Baitong test data. Feng Xiaochen looked at the busy appearance of the teachers and students with interest, and smiled without saying a word.
After about ten minutes, Yan Baitong stopped what he was doing and instructed several students: "Have you written down these values? ”
After that, he took off the sleeve he was wearing on his hand, turned around, walked in front of Xia Yulin, and said with a smile: "Director Xia, why did you come to the laboratory in person?"
"Go, who are you sarcastic!" Xia Yulin stood up and scolded angrily, then turned his head to Feng Xiaochen, who had also stood up, and said with a smile: "This old Yan is criticizing me for leaving scientific research work." I think I was also a person who went to the laboratory every day, and I became the head of the department in the past two years, and I was busy with work, so there was less work in the laboratory. ”
Seeing Xia Yulin talking to Feng Xiaochen, and there was a bit of politeness in his words, Yan Baitong looked at Feng Xiaochen curiously, and then asked Xia Yulin: "Old Xia, is this ......?"
"Boss Yan, let me introduce to you, this is Comrade Feng Xiaochen of the State Economic Commission, who has come to you specifically to contact and work. I can tell you that the work that Comrade Feng talked about is an important work in our province, and you are not allowed to make awkward mistakes at others. Xia Yulin wanted to explain in a cover-up manner.
Yan Baitong looked surprised and said, "Oh, it turned out to be the leader of the Economic Commission, disrespectful and disrespectful. It's too noisy to talk here, so let's go back to the department and talk about it. ”
His expression was slightly exaggerated, and it could be seen that the hat of the State Economic Commission was still a bit deterrent to him, but Feng Xiaochen's youth diluted this effect. Before figuring out Feng Xiaochen's identity and intentions, Yan Baitong wanted to use this method to not only show respect for the Economic Commission, but also leave a step for the next step to change his face.
This is the self-righteous cunning of a small intellectual, and it is a very clumsy trick for a person like Feng Xiaochen, who has been immersed in the agency for many years. Feng Xiaochen didn't debunk Yan Baitong's thoughts, in his opinion, it was a good thing that Yan Baitong could have such a flexible attitude, he really ran into a pedantic science and engineering house, and he was not so easy to talk to.
"Teacher Yan, Director Xia and I just came from the department, so we don't have to go back to the trouble anymore, let's talk about it here. Feng Xiaochen said, he pointed to Yan Baitong's experimental table, and said: "Mr. Yan was doing oil film thickness measurement just now, right? I heard that Pujiang 704 has a QS22 oil film thickness measuring instrument, which has a large range, good accuracy and linear range, why don't you use this kind of equipment?"
"Uh......" Yan Baitong showed a strange expression on his face, and said in his heart that this young man really came out of the ministry, and he didn't have a score to speak. I didn't know that a dedicated oil film measuring instrument would work better, but I had to have this kind of equipment. Isn't that the modern version of why not eat minced meat, you ask?
"Comrade Feng, you may not know much about our situation. The scientific research funds of our entire engineering school are limited, and the amount allocated to us to purchase experimental equipment every year is very small, and we don't have the QS22 you just mentioned, so Lao Yan can only take students to do experiments because of their ugliness. Xia Yulin explained sneeringly.
"You don't have QS22, so what about other oil film measuring instruments? I remember that Lin'an Automation Instrument Factory also produced one, it seems to be called ZZF61, you won't have it, right? There is also the one from Kaman Company in the United States, the one from Bentley Nevada...... How is that possible?"
Feng Xiaochen reported the model of the device like a fool, and there was a confused look in his eyes, as if he couldn't understand why the other party didn't have such a device.
Xia Yulin and Yan Baitong looked at each other, and Yan Baitong's expression was the most complicated. Yan Baitong had heard of these equipment models mentioned by Feng Xiaochen, and he had always been itching to have the opportunity to use them. He didn't think he could have one or two in his lab, which seemed to him an unattainable luxury. But even if it was borrowed from others, he never fulfilled this wish. Several well-known universities in Beijing, Pujiang and other places have this kind of equipment, but why should people let him use it?
Hearing Feng Xiaochen standing and talking without backache, Yan Baitong had a desire to pinch the other party's neck and make him stop. Nima, you're not here to sell experimental equipment, it's good not to take you to hurt people like this.
"Comrade Feng, let's get down to business...... Xia Yulin couldn't listen anymore, and cautiously reminded, "Didn't you say that you have something to talk about with Teacher Yan?" )
