Chapter 345: Let's get the work started first

Hearing Wang Hongtai's hair, Gao Xinwei also had a headache. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The purpose of letting Qu Shoulin and them name in the project is to appease everyone's emotions, and at the same time to make them look better when reporting to their superiors. If the host of such a large project is just a little-known lecturer, the superiors will inevitably have some questions and think that something is wrong with the well-known professors in the Department of Chemical Engineering.

Nomination is a trivial matter and does not affect the progress of the project. According to Gao Xinwei's original idea, this topic should still be handed over to Wang Hongtai to do, at least the main work should be completed by him. Because others are not familiar with the direction of ruthenium catalysts, and Qu Shoulin is not interested in turning their research direction to ruthenium catalysts at all. The rearmament office will arrange the project, and in the end, it will definitely see the results, and if Wang Hongtai is not allowed to do it, who else can make the results?

Thinking about it this way, something happened when I did it. The first phase of the state allocation for this project is 100,000 yuan, which is a large amount and will inevitably make people excited. Coincidentally, the old professor Wu Ronggen's side has a project that lacks a little funding, and the amount is not large, that is, thousands of yuan. As soon as Wu Ronggen's mind turned, he focused on the funding of ruthenium catalysts. It is said that the total funding for this project is 500,000 yuan, so why should I spend a few thousand yuan to support myself? In any case, I have also made a name in the research group.

In this way, Wu Ronggen took the account of buying reagents in his project to the ruthenium catalyst project for reimbursement. Dong Hongying is an administrative cadre, who does not understand technology, and cannot distinguish which materials are used for research. Since Wu Ronggen is the deputy leader of the ruthenium catalyst research group, he naturally has the right to spend money, he handed over the list, Dong Hongying also took it, and reported to him very smoothly.

Wu Ronggen got cheap, and it was inevitable that he would sigh in front of his colleagues, roughly saying that Wang Hongtai had done a good thing for everyone, and if there was no money from Wang Hongtai, his experiment would be troublesome. The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, and other professors have heard that there is such a good thing, how can they not come up and stain it. Yes, everyone has some scientific research funds under their names, but who would have too much scientific research funds? I didn't have enough funds before, and I couldn't get the money to go out to attend an academic conference, but now I have such a big topic, and I just report a trip to the expense, just a thousand dollars, can Xiao Wang still disagree? I think Xiao Wang was also a student in the department back then, so he didn't spend his own funds?

One after another, some people opened orders to spend money on the ruthenium catalyst project, and Dong Hongying naturally asked the opinion of Qu Shoulin, the leader of the research group. Qu Shoulin is still a relatively fair person, and he is not used to this kind of casual behavior of rubbing oil and water, so he set a rule for the experts in the research group, and the amount of money spent by each person cannot exceed a certain amount, otherwise he will be iron-faced and selfless, and resolutely refuse to sign.

In this way, the first phase of 100,000 yuan will be famous, and the people who are named in the research group have a quota and cannot be overspent. fell into Wang Hongtai's name, and there was less than 10,000 yuan left, which Qu Shoulin worked hard to win for him, with the humble opinion of those professors, it would be good to give him three or two thousand left.

Gao Xinwei only heard about this when he heard that his graduate students took the bills to report the funds of the ruthenium catalyst project. Qu Shoulin did not directly tell him the quota, but notified the graduate students under his name. Gao Xin didn't inquire again, only to know that Qu Shoulin and several others had already made their own decisions and divided all the money for the project, and some of the money had even been spent. After learning about this, Gao Xinwei knew that something was wrong. Wang Hongtai only came to him to settle accounts now, and he really realized that the queen mother was a little bit of an afterthought.

"Xiao Wang, don't worry, I just heard about this too......" Gao Xin didn't close the door of the office, dragged Wang Hongtai to sit down, and said to him in a rare low voice.

Hair Biao generally has to stand up, and once he sits down, his momentum is a little weaker. Wang Hongtai was not pressed by Gao Xin to sit down, and his arrogance was not as great as just now. With a dark face, he asked Gao Xinwei: "Director Gao, what do you say about this matter? This fund was allocated by the Heavy Equipment Office specifically for the research of ruthenium catalysts, and now the 100,000 yuan is only left for me with 10,000 yuan, and I can't buy some experimental materials, so what else can I do about this subject?"

"This is a mistake in the work of the department. Gao Xinwei made a frank review, and then explained: "The project funding must be based on you, because the ruthenium catalyst project is mainly applied for by you, and the department has great expectations for you." However, Professor Qu and Professor Wu have names in the research group after all, and it is too unsatisfactory to say that they can't move a penny. ā€

"Did I beg them to be named?" Wang Hongtai was really unkind this time, "Director Gao, you touch your conscience and say, who rarely lets them be named? Their name is already too much, and for this reason, they want to share my funds, what is the reason?"

Gao Xinwei said: "Xiao Wang, it's not right for you to say that. Professor Qu, their names are still helpful to the subject. Last time you applied to the Municipal Computing Center to do a numerical calculation, and asked the school to issue a letter of introduction, if it weren't for Professor Qu's sake, would the school have issued you a letter of introduction so easily?"

"This ......" Wang Hongtai let Gao Xin not be squeezed. The school's computer is not enough, the last time he applied to go to the city computing center to do a batch of calculations, when he asked the school to open a letter of introduction, the school office did agree to open a letter of introduction for the sake of Qu Shoulin's face, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to open a letter of introduction with a small lecturer. In this sense, there are indeed some benefits to having the bulls in the research group. But the problem is that the price paid for these benefits is too great, and the 100,000 yuan fund has been divided by more than 90,000 yuan.

"Of course, I just gave an example, and it is not that the current allocation plan is reasonable. Gao Xinwei also knew that his reason was untenable, and he said: "If you don't come to me for this matter, I also plan to discuss it with Professor Qu and them." Funding for ruthenium catalyst research must be guaranteed, and the excess funds will be used to support other projects in the department. Tell me, how much money do you need for the first phase of the study?"

"How much do I need?" Wang Hongtai looked at Gao Xinwei and couldn't laugh or cry. These funds are all their own, and when the rearmament office allocated the funds, they also conducted an evaluation, so how can there be any superfluity? Wu Shican is also a top expert in the industry and is very experienced in budget evaluation. He proposed to give Wang Hongtai a fund of 500,000 yuan because he hoped that Wang Hongtai's results would require so much investment. Of course, if Wang Hongtai is willing to save a little, there is still some leeway.

"Of the 100,000 yuan for the first phase of the fund, I can contribute 20,000 yuan. Wang Hongtai gritted his teeth and said to Gao Xinwei.

"Contribute 20,000?" Gao Xinwei shook his head, "That's too little." If it's only 20,000 yuan, it's not interesting, all the teachers in the department have some funds in their hands, and no matter how tight they are, they won't lack the 20,000 yuan. ā€

"It's none of the business with me. Wang Hongtai said, "The first phase of the research plan I listed will cost at least 80,000 yuan. ā€

"However, your earliest application report only listed 80,000 yuan, why did you spend so much money in the first place?" Gao Xinwei questioned.

Wang Hongtai said: "My original plan was too conservative, and when I was defending in Beijing, Professor Wu and I discussed the research plan, which asked me to open up my thinking a little more and try to keep up with the international trend, so I increased the funding." ā€

Gao Xinwei pondered for a moment and said, "In my opinion, you still have to work hard to control the scope of your research, and don't be too ambitious. Keeping up with international trends is necessary, but it can't be achieved overnight. Through this project, we have been able to reach the level of the late 70s or mid-70s abroad, and we have already been very successful, so how can we go hand in hand with foreign countries all at once?

Mid-70s...... Wang Hongtai felt a little cold. If it only reaches the level of the mid-70s abroad, there is no need for this project to exist, because in the mid-70s, foreign research on the catalytic effect of ruthenium has just started, there is no special technical threshold, and there is no problem to catch up.

Wu Shican and others have high hopes for this project, because the current application of ruthenium catalyst is still very immature, and now that they start researching, there is a high probability that they will be able to seize the lead and even obtain some important patented technologies. If you delay the time, when others have fully developed this field, it will be meaningless to enter it yourself, and you can only pay for other people's patents and repeat the mistakes of the previous generation of synthetic ammonia processes.

In fact, Wang Hongtai had not introduced this to Gao Xin before, but Gao Xin did not pay attention to it at all. Now listening to Gao Xinwei's words, Wang Hongtai is too lazy to argue, he is now concerned about only one question: how much money does the Department of Chemical Engineering plan to leave for himself.

"20,000 yuan!"

This is Gao Xin's answer to Wang Hongtai. Although Qu Shoulin has already allocated the amount of money, many professors still have time to use the money. Gao Xin didn't come forward to mediate, and it was still okay to help Wang Hongtai recover some of it, but if he wanted to recover 80,000 yuan, it would be a fantasy.

"I don't agree!" Wang Hongtai said hatefully, "The department can use this money, but only 20%, and the remaining 80% must be at my disposal, otherwise I will not be able to complete the task assigned by the Heavy Equipment Office." ā€

"Okay, I'll discuss this matter when I get it to the department office meeting. Now, you should start your work first, and then you have to eat the meal one bite at a time. ā€

Gao Xin came up with a delaying tactic and sent Wang Hongtai away.
