"You can really do it for me!"

Luo Xiangfei sat behind the desk, looked at Feng Xiaochen, and said in a slightly helpless tone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Feng Xiaochen's proposal to establish a national industrial laboratory was reported to the central leadership by Meng Fanze. The central leaders attached great importance to this and specially invited more than a dozen old people from the scientific and industrial circles to sit down and discuss the feasibility of this idea. Amazingly, all these old people spoke highly of this idea, and considered it necessary to arrange for some people to specialize in future-oriented technology research under the current conditions.

In recent years, due to the opening of the country, domestic scientists and entrepreneurs have gone out and come into contact with foreign advanced technology. In this process, they have a common feeling, that is, China has been thrown far away by the world's advanced trend, there are too many places that need to make up for classes, and some gaps are even far enough to make people lose their courage.

In this case, the strategy chosen by the state is to learn from abroad in a down-to-earth manner, make up for the shortcomings, and shorten the gap with the foreign country as much as possible. Many industries have set the goal of catching up 30 years later, that is, around 2010, to be able to reach the level of keeping up with foreign countries, or at least to be able to catch up, so that there will not be a lack of competitiveness at all, as it is now.

Don't think that catching up with the advanced level of foreign countries in 30 years is an overly negative goal, in fact, this goal even seems very radical to some people. The simple reason is that when you are improving, your catch-up goals are also improving. You now have a 20-year gap with others, and you are ready to catch up with each other in 30 years, which means that your 30 years need to complete the path of others in 50 years, which is not an easy thing.

The plan was decided in this way, but from the central leaders to the senior officials of the ministries and commissions, from scientists to engineers, there was a sense of injustice in their hearts. They hope that one day China will become the country that leads the way, and to do so, they must not just follow the trend of others, but send a surprise army to intersperse with areas that others have not yet reached, and seize some opportunities.

Feng Xiaochen's plan of "facing the wall" happened to coincide with everyone's ideas, and naturally it was widely approved.

In fact, Feng Xiaochen proposed this plan, which also has a reference blueprint. He knows that in real history, the United States will put forward the Star Wars program next year, Japan will put forward the "policy of promoting science and technology in the next 10 years," and Western Europe will launch the Eureka plan, the content of which is that the government will invest huge sums of money, concentrate a large amount of manpower and material resources, develop high technology, and win international competition in the future.

In response to this situation, in March 1986, China determined the "National High-tech Research and Development Program", also known as the 863 Program. With the support of this program, China has achieved fruitful results in the fields of biology, aerospace, information, lasers, automation, energy, new materials, and marine technology, laying the foundation for participating in global industrial competition in the 21st century.

Feng Xiaochen's plan for the National Industrial Laboratory is different from the later 863 Plan, and its intention is even more far-reaching. What he proposed was to organize a group of scientists to put aside short-term scientific research plans and focus on cutting-edge technologies in 20 or even 50 years. In this process, these scientists can produce no results and are not responsible to anyone, and they are completely autonomous and voluntary in their research, only in this way can they concentrate on exploring the mysteries hidden behind the thick walls, so as to become a "wall-facer".

Although the statement of facing the wall seems a little abrupt, it was quickly accepted by the decision-making level. These people who can become the leaders of the central government are all wise and extraordinary, and they have realized the mystery of the word "facing the wall", and they have also used the word "facing the wall" in some formal meetings.

The plan to establish a national industrial laboratory was approved by the central government, because Meng Fanze reported that the idea came from the Heavy Equipment Office, and the central leadership handed over the preparatory work to the Heavy Equipment Office by name. Speaking of which, it is also logical for the Heavy Equipment Office to undertake this work, because the original intention of establishing the National Industrial Laboratory is to conduct pre-research on major equipment in the future.

When the news reached Luo Xiangfei, Luo Xiangfei was stunned. After inquiring carefully, he realized that it was Feng Xiaochen's idea, so he called Feng Xiaochen over and asked him about his master.

"Director Luo, you really can't blame me for this!" Feng Xiaochen shouted and hit the sky, "This is Minister Meng who has given me a problem, and I am helpless to give him an idea." But who knew that in the end, it would be up to us to reload?"

"Can't you keep your mouth shut?" Luo Xiangfei asked, "What does the matter of the P15 big plane have to do with our rearmament office? You directly replied to Minister Meng, saying that you have no way, don't you just do it? So many people can't think of a way, just what you Feng Xiaochen can do?"

Feng Xiaochen heard from Luo Xiangfei's tone that he was not really angry, so he said with a smile: "Director Luo, think about it, P15 has been engaged in it for more than ten years, although it is a bit ahead of its time, and the country can't support it, but this team was disbanded like this, all the materials were destroyed, and the experience could not be retained, don't you think it's a pity?"

"Alas, we've done a lot of this kind of thing over the years. Luo Xiangfei sighed. He is engaged in industry, how can he not know what is going on.

In the past, China was blocked by Western countries, and many new technologies were not available. Seeing that others have made some high-tech things, they also want to do it in China, so they formed a team and invested some money to do it. Because of the lack of technology accumulation and the lack of funds, some projects were stopped halfway through. Subsequently, because a new project came out, the original team was transferred to work on a new project, and as a result, all the accumulation of the old project was wasted.

People in the circle understand these things. Feng Xiaochen proposed to build a national industrial laboratory to accommodate these advanced projects, and Luo Xiangfei actually agreed with it in his heart. As for the preparation of the industrial laboratory being handed over to the rearmament office, Luo Xiangfei looked very unhappy on his face, but he was actually happy in his heart. As a leader, who is not happy to take care of more things by himself, more management means greater importance, although Luo Xiangfei is not an official fan, but he can have more power, he still likes to hear it.

"Director Luo, has the matter of the industrial laboratory been decided?" Feng Xiaochen asked tentatively. He really doesn't know the details of this kind of high-level decision-making.

Luo Xiangfei said: "The general direction has been decided, basically the idea you proposed, by the way, it is the idea of the person facing the wall." The leading comrades of the Central Committee specifically said that the word "wall-faced" is very vivid, and also said that the comrade who proposed this term is a talented person. ”

"Well, actually, I've heard about it too......" Feng Xiaochen blushed a little. Plagiarizing the technical patents of Sanli Steel Works, he has no psychological pressure at all, but it is not suitable to plagiarize the creativity of other people's Da Liu. But this kind of thing, he really can't explain it to Luo Xiangfei.

Fortunately, Luo Xiangfei didn't delve into this matter, the word face wall was very popular back then, mainly from the sentence "Ten years of facing the wall to break the wall" in Zhou Gong's poem, Luo Xiangfei thought that Feng Xiaochen must have been inspired from here.

"The specific details, including the management agency, funding sources, investment, project selection, etc., should be further refined, and the Science and Technology Commission, military industry and other departments will put forward opinions. After the official documents come down, we will hang another sign at the door of the rearmament office, writing the preparatory group of the National Industrial Laboratory, how about it, are you interested in working in the preparatory group?" Luo Xiangfei finally put away the fierce appearance he had just pretended, and asked Feng Xiaochen with a smile.

Feng Xiaochen was very hesitant about this matter, on the one hand, he felt that this matter was quite interesting, and on the other hand, he felt that equipment coordination was his strength, so he replied vaguely: "I obey the organizational arrangement." ”

As soon as he said this, Luo Xiangfei understood what he meant, so he said with a smile: "In this way, you don't plan to do these mother-in-law things." In fact, I also think it's not appropriate for you to go, and it is more appropriate for Director Wu to preside over this work. He was originally the head of the Strategy Division, and during this period of time he put forward a number of strategic ideas, which coincided with the purpose of the industrial laboratory, and it should be more familiar for him to preside over this work. ”

In the past six months, he has successfully realized the transformation from a scientist to a strategic official, and it is indeed more suitable for him to manage a future-oriented national industrial laboratory.

"As for you, don't be idle, you'll get into trouble as soon as you're idle, so it's better to find something to do quickly. Luo Xiangfei said half-jokingly and half-seriously. Some time ago, Feng Xiaochen was busy negotiating with foreign businessmen such as Sanli and Klinz, and then worked with Qin Zhong and Puzhong to formulate a strategy for introducing foreign rolling mill technology, and he was really not idle.

"The matter over there for the rolling equipment is almost busy, right?" Luo Xiangfei asked.

Feng Xiaochen nodded and said, "It's almost." Qin Chong's Chief Engineer Xu and Chief Engineer Cui will fly to Japan early next month to participate in the design of a rolling mill production line of Sanli Steel Institute, mainly to observe their design process on the spot. Urawshige's side is to receive Klintz's technology, and it may be a little bit slower, and it will almost be able to start at the end of next month. Although we have worked on rolling mills in the past, we have not established design specifications. This time, Chief Engineer Xu will comprehensively learn the design specifications of Sanli, so that our own design work is also on the right track. ”

"It's important. Luo Xiangfei nodded and said, "To engage in industry, we can't always use the guerrilla way of thinking, and we have to gradually turn into a regular army." ”

Feng Xiaochen said: "Director Luo is right, this time, we not only have to learn the design specifications of Sanli, but also learn their industry standards, and formulate heavy machinery industry standards suitable for us." ”

"Good. Luo Xiangfei said, "You should also prepare, just set off with Chief Engineer Xu and them." ”

"Where are you going?" Feng Xiaochen was stunned.

"Japan. Luo Xiangfei replied.
