Due to his identity, Qu Shoulin submitted to the Department of Chemical Engineering to resign from the position of the leader of the ruthenium catalyst research group, and applied for retirement procedures, and no longer engaged in scientific research and teaching. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Subsequently, Wu Ronggen and several other professors also withdrew from the ruthenium catalyst research group on the grounds of unstable blood pressure, high cholesterol, prostatic hyperplasia, and recurrence of corns. The professors have noble manners, and since they are no longer engaged in the work on this topic, it is natural that the project funds previously used will be refunded in full. They all have some other topics in their hands, and if they find a way to squeeze them, they can still squeeze out some money to make up for the shortfall.

Wang Hongtai served as the leader of the research group half-pushed and half-on-the-spot, and Gao Xinwei did not resign from the position of executive deputy leader, but he said that he was just running errands for Wang Hongtai, and he would not use a penny of the funds in the project.

The purchase list of gas chromatographs and other instruments and materials was personally sent to the material procurement office by Dong Hongying, and the procurement could be started only after the heavy equipment office notified the thaw of the project funds. Jiao Tongjian made a special call to the director of the material procurement department, asking these materials from the Department of Chemical Engineering to be included in the scope of priority procurement, and there could be no delay for a moment.

These things sound like trouble, but they are actually things that happen within a few days. Feng Xiaochen did not go to Pudong Jiaotong University again these days, but visited some other scientific research units in Pujiang to discuss research issues with experts from these units. Yan Han served as his full-time liaison, coming over every day to inform him about the situation at the school. Feng Xiaochen did not pay him, but only verbally promised to provide him with some help in the future. Yan Han is a smart person, and he knows that it is very beneficial to be able to make friends with a cadre of a state organ like Feng Xiaochen, who has a lot of eyes and eyes, and he doesn't have to take the little benefits in front of him to heart.

A few days later, Zhang Huaibin made a phone call to the National Heavy Equipment Office, nominally to report on the progress of the project undertaken by Pudong Jiaotong University, but most of the time was spent talking about the ruthenium catalyst project in the Department of Chemical Engineering. On the phone, Zhang Huaibin euphemistically proposed that he hoped that the Heavy Equipment Office would send leaders to inspect the work, and Wu Shican, who was on the other end of the phone, understood and pretended that Feng Xiaochen, deputy director of the General Affairs Department, happened to be on business in Pujiang and might be able to take time to visit.

In this way, Feng Xiaochen appeared on the campus of Pudong Jiaotong University again and walked into Zhang Huaibin's office with a somewhat humble look. This visit should have taken place a few days ago, and if it hadn't been for the cold whistleblowing, the result might have been completely different.

"Director Feng, let's meet again!"

"Director Zhang, take the liberty of bothering, it doesn't affect your work, right?"

"Wherever and wherever I am, reporting to Director Feng is the most important part of my work. ”

"I'm here to learn from Director Zhang and the experts......"

The two men sat down on the couch in the office with unnutritious polite words. After greeting each other's leaders, colleagues and family members, the conversation got to the point. Zhang Huaibin took a statistical table and reported to Feng Xiaochen in detail the progress of the 14 projects undertaken by Pudong Jiaotong University, listing some completed achievements and upcoming papers.

The person in charge of this project is Mr. Wang Hongtai, and the Department of Chemical Engineering is worried that his qualifications are too shallow, and the current title is only a lecturer, and he has not yet been qualified as a graduate student, so it is inconvenient to organize the strength of the whole department to tackle key problems collectively, so several old professors of the Department of Chemical Engineering, including Professor Qu Shoulin, Professor Wu Ronggen, etc., are specially hired as consultants of the research group to coordinate Wang Hongtai's work.

Some time ago, Professor Qu Shoulin had some health problems, and he proposed to resign from the position of honorary leader of the research group. The Department of Chemical Engineering and Professor Wang Hongtai repeatedly retained, and Professor Qu firmly said that he was old and it was time for young people to rise up and take the lead. In addition, after several months of running-in, the work of the research group has also been on the right track, so the Department of Chemical Engineering finally agreed to Professor Qu's request and appointed Wang Hongtai as the leader of the research group. ”

"Professor Qu is really a high-spirited and bright festival, and it is worth learning from. Feng Xiaochen wrote the word "sincere" on his face, and said to Zhang Huaibin: "The Department of Chemical Engineering is also worthy of being a fighting group, and the three generations of the old, middle and young are so united, it seems that it is a correct decision for us to hand over the topic of ruthenium catalyst to the Department of Chemical Engineering." ”

"That's that, we take the tasks assigned by the state very seriously. ”

"This is all under the leadership of Director Zhang. ”

"Haha, I'm just the eyes and ears of the school leaders, and it's our leaders who really lead well......"

"Hahahaha......"

After a hypocritical conversation and laughter, Zhang Huaibin said: "By the way, Director Feng, there is one thing I want to ask you, a few days ago, Director Hao of the Economic Commission suddenly called us to inform us, saying that we should temporarily freeze the use of this fund, I don't know what the reason is, do you understand?"

"Is there such a thing?" Feng Xiaochen's eyes widened, "This can't be, why haven't I heard of it?"

"yes, we were surprised. Zhang Huaibin said, "Director Feng, this matter has made us a little passive, and the material procurement plans of several research groups have been shelved, which directly affects the progress of the research." We were about to ask the Heavy Equipment Office about the situation, and Director Feng happened to be here, can you please help us ask?"

"No problem, I'll call Director Hao. Feng Xiaochen said quite righteously.

The phone in Zhang Huaibin's office can make long-distance calls, and Feng Xiaochen dialed Hao Yawei's phone in front of Zhang Huaibin and directly asked about the freezing of funds. After saying a few words, he put down the phone and said to Zhang Huaibin apologetically:

"Director Zhang, I'm sorry, this is a misunderstanding. Two days ago, the machinery import and export company made a phone call to the Heavy Equipment Office, saying that your school entrusted them to import a pulse signal generator from abroad, using the funds and foreign exchange quota of the equipment science and technology fund. The import and export company thought that this procurement was a bit problematic and had some conflicts with the current national policy of encouraging the use of domestic instruments, so it reflected it to the Heavy Equipment Office. Out of prudence, the Rearmament Office proposes to temporarily freeze the use of funds on your side and check whether there are any policy violations.

However, this matter has now been clarified, and the instrument you apply for import is currently irreplaceable in China, and it does not violate the requirements of national policy at all. Director Hao said that he would call your Finance and Economics Department immediately to inform you of the lifting of the freeze on funds, and he repeatedly asked me to apologize to the teachers in your school on his behalf. ”

Sorry for you big-headed ghost!

Zhang Huaibin greeted the ancestors of Feng Xiaochen and Hao Yawei's family in his heart, and this time the greeting was sincere, so he just gritted his teeth. However, he still had to pretend to be kind in front of him, and said: "Director Hao is really polite, and he is sorry or not." It is absolutely necessary for the Office to be strict with us, and we will also draw lessons from this incident, carefully examine the use of funds, and not only must there be no violations of policy, but also no things that can easily cause misunderstanding among the higher-level leaders. ”

"Yes, yes, it's a pure misunderstanding, and we still have to strengthen communication in the future to avoid such misunderstandings again. Feng Xiaochen said with a haha.

A storm passed quietly, thundering loudly, but not a few drops of rain were shed. The Heavy Equipment Office didn't even mention the ruthenium catalyst issue at all, but used a ridiculous reason to perfunctory the previous thunder methods. But Zhang Huaibin, Jiao Tongjian, Gao Xinwei and others know very well that the root cause of this matter lies in the changes in the topic of ruthenium catalyst. The reason why the other party does not point it out directly can be understood as not wanting to tear the skin, or it can be interpreted as disdain to entangle with the Department of Chemical Engineering.

Gao Xinwei knew very well in his heart that if the Heavy Equipment Office chose the method of direct accountability, the two sides would definitely fight a chaotic battle, and the Department of Chemical Engineering had already prepared all kinds of quibbling reasons, even if it had to give in in the end, at least it would make the Heavy Equipment Office disgraced. But the Heavy Equipment Office did not do this, but just cleverly let go of the news, which aroused public anger at Pudong Jiaotong University, and sent Qu Shoulin to the hospital with Pudong Jiaotong University's own strength, and he was still unscathed, so that the Department of Chemical Engineering could not say a reason for looking for trouble.

For Wang Hongtai, a key figure in this incident, Gao Xinwei, Wu Ronggen and others did not think of wearing a small shoe for him, which made him uncomfortable. But Wang Hongtai is indeed very innocent in this matter, there is no evidence that he complained to the Heavy Equipment Office, and he was a person who swallowed his anger from beginning to end, so that Gao Xin was not embarrassed to attack him. On the other hand, this time Lao Qu was too ruthless, which made people feel a little afraid of Wang Hongtai. If you find a reason to clean up Wang Hongtai and recruit the reloading office again, the unlucky one doesn't know who it is. For such an evil person, it is better for everyone to walk around.

Wang Hongtai has the weakness of intellectuals, and Qu Shoulin and Wu Ronggen are not exempt from vulgarity. They dared to bully Wang Hongtai before, just because Wang Hongtai had no backer, he was easy to bully, and he didn't bully Bai or not. Now that I know that this person is not easy to mess with, everyone will immediately coward, and if you can't afford to provoke it, you can still hide, but when you can't hide, you can only pile up a kind smile and say a few words of encouragement such as "Hongtai is good", like a strange uncle who takes a little Lori to watch a goldfish.

Wang Hongtai's status in the Department of Chemical Engineering quickly rose, and the title of associate professor that Gao Xin did not promise him was quickly fulfilled, and his research group also focused on many elites who were only forward-looking. Wang Hongtai, who was proud of the spring breeze, quickly made several good results, which were published in well-known foreign publications, which were impressive.

20 years later, Wang Hongtai, who has become a big bull in the industry, has become a new generation of scholars, and the arrogance of the younger generation is more than Qu Shoulin, who has passed away a long time ago, which is a later story.
