Practice has shown that Wang Hongtai was optimistic too early. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The Department of Chemical Engineering snatched Wang Hongtai's project and let Qu Shoulin be the leader of the project, the original idea was just to appease Qu Shoulin's wounded heart. Qu Shoulin applied for the project, but was not approved, but Wang Hongtai, a small lecturer, received a high grant of 500,000 yuan, which made Lao Qu feel very faceless. Lao Qu is already a person from Benliu, a veteran of the Department of Chemical Engineering, and a big bull ranked first, when did he lose face like this?

If Qu Shoulin didn't apply for the project at the beginning, it would be enough, he could say that he didn't compete with young people for opportunities, or claimed that he was old and indifferent to fame and fortune, which was a very good statement, and he could win countless admiration. But it was Gao Xinwei who mobilized him to declare in order to compete for some honor in this project declaration, so the humiliation caused by the rejection of the declaration must be borne by Gao Xinwei or the Department of Chemical Engineering.

After the news of Wang Hongtai's project funding came back, Qu Shoulin's face was very ugly for several days. He didn't take the initiative to grab Wang Hongtai's project, but Gao Xinwei didn't understand Qu Shoulin's thoughts. The ruthenium catalyst project is the largest funding project received by the entire SPB, which is of great significance, and it is estimated that it can be written into the history of the department in the future. For a project like this, Qu Shoulin doesn't put a name on it, which is absolutely unacceptable.

As a result, Gao Xinwei notified several department leaders and several professors to hold a small meeting, and recommended Qu Shoulin as the leader of the ruthenium catalyst project, and Wu Ronggen and Cheng Chirong as the deputy leaders. Everyone understands what this means, but the ostensible rhetoric is to mobilize veteran professors to escort the project to help young people grow faster. On the issue of serving as the team leader, Qu Shoulin performed a good interpretation of what is called Gao Feng Liangjie, he imitated the precedent of the ancients, and engaged in a "three resignations and three concessions", and finally reluctantly agreed to accept this important task, and claimed that once there is a more suitable candidate, he will automatically let Xian, no one should stop him.

After determining this arrangement, Gao Xinwei asked Dong Hongying to inform Wang Hongtai to come to the meeting, which was actually just to tell him the result. The major policies of the department, which one of the small lecturers can make irresponsible remarks.

Wang Hongtai decided to endure it. This is the so-called guilt of conceiving it. Professor Wu and Director Feng had a high degree of trust in him and gave him a grant of 500,000 yuan, which was the first in the entire Pudong Diplomatic Union, and it was impossible for others not to covet him. It is also an acceptable result to let the bulls put on a name and be responsible for doing things themselves. Now that the first phase of funding has been put in place, the most important thing at the moment is to purchase experimental materials and prepare to start the experimental work.

Wang Hongtai made a detailed list of experimental materials and handed it to Dong Hongying. According to the working procedures of the school, if the teacher wants to purchase experimental materials, he needs to fill in the purchase requisition form first, explain the reason, and then hand it over to the relevant departments to purchase after being stamped and confirmed by the department. Generally speaking, the seal of the department is also a formality, because the funds are allocated to the name of the host of the project, and the host must know what to buy and what not to buy. Of course, if you write on the application form what Moutai liquor, Chinese cigarettes, etc., you will have to send the list back. The so-called gatekeeping is mainly aimed at this kind of unreasonable procurement behavior.

The list listed by Wang Hongtai is all the materials needed for the subject, such as ruthenium trichloride, magnesium oxide, activated carbon, etc., these things cannot be eaten, nor can they be taken home and placed on the bedside to ward off evil spirits and contraception, so there is really no need for censorship. But it was such a list, but it was returned by Dong Hongying, saying that the amount was too large and had to be signed by the leader of the research group.

"Team leader?" Wang Hongtai looked surprised.

"That's right, it's Professor Qu. Dong Hongying said.

Wang Hongtai said: "But Director Gao said that this project is mainly based on me, and Professor Qu is just a name, and there is no need for them to sign for the purchase of experimental materials." ”

Dong Hongying said: "How can this be done? Professor Qu is the leader of the research group, and of course the use of funds must be approved by him. The nominal team leader is also the team leader, and the team leader can't say that it doesn't count, you say it, right?"

Wang Hongtai had no choice but to go back to Qu Shoulin to sign. As a result, when I asked, Qu Shoulin had an arthritis attack and went to the hospital to be hospitalized, and it was not accurate when he would come back to work. Wang Hongtai finally found out which hospital Qu Shoulin lived in, he bought some fruits, snacks and other things out of his own pocket, went to the hospital to visit the patient, and "by the way" asked Qu Shoulin to sign his application form.

"Dodecyl triruthenium, 10 grams is more than 2,000 yuan, how can it be so expensive?"

Qu Shoulin looked at the purchase orders handed over by Wang Hongtai, pointed to one of them, and asked with a frown. Lao Qu is also an authority in the chemical industry, and he has made jokes like "nail catalysts" before, and after serving as the leader of the research group, he still made up for the relevant knowledge, at least he can recognize the molecular formula of dodecyl triruthenium, but he didn't expect this thing to be so expensive.

Wang Hongtai was also a little embarrassed, ruthenium itself is a precious metal, and the research on ruthenium catalysts inevitably requires the use of various ruthenium compounds, all of which are expensive and expensive. At the beginning, Wu Shican felt that his application for 80,000 yuan was not enough, and it was also because of this reason. To be honest, with his salary of just over 100 yuan a month, he spent thousands of yuan to buy reagents, and he was also extremely distressed.

But no matter how distressed you are, you still have to buy what you should buy, otherwise you won't be able to do experiments. He said to Qu Shoulin with a smiling face: "Teacher Qu, this reagent is imported from abroad, and we can't make it in China, so the price is a little higher." However, now the first choice for foreign research on ruthenium catalysts is this dodecyltriruthenium. According to the literature, it has a very good catalytic effect on synthetic ammonia, but the choice of substrate needs to be explored. I'd like to do experiments on this and see how it works. ”

"Xiao Wang, your spirit of exploration is very good, and you really need to have this spirit to do scientific research. However, we also have to take into account the national conditions of our country, after all, China is still only a developing country, and it cannot be compared with other developed countries. What countries did you just say that foreign countries are doing research on ruthenium catalysts?"

"Well, there are Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States, and there are several universities doing it, and the research in this field is still relatively hot. ”

"Look, look, Japan, Britain, the United States, what is the level of development of people, what is the level of development of us, can it be the same? People buy 10 grams of reagents, that is, pluck a single hair, we have a lot of effort, more than 2,000 yuan, which is enough for a professor's income for a year. It doesn't matter if you can make a result. Can you guarantee a valuable outcome?"

"This ......" Wang Hongtai opened his mouth to stammer, how can there be a certain thing in scientific research? In fact, this 10 grams of reagent is just to do some preliminary exploration, he needs to get inspiration from this group of experiments, and then design the next stage of experiments. If you want to get valuable results, you have to wait until the next stage. Isn't it difficult for a strong man to make sure that he will produce results now?

Qu Shoulin saw Wang Hongtai's weakness, so he said more seriously: "Xiao Wang, the country attaches great importance to this project and has allocated 500,000 yuan, which seems to be a big investment, but after apportionment, there is not much money." The reagents on your list cost more than 5,000 yuan in total, and this is only a stage of work, and there is no guarantee of effective results, how can this work? If everyone applies like you, will the funds for this project still be enough?"

"Huh?" Wang Hongtai heard that something was wrong, he looked at Qu Shoulin and asked, "Teacher Qu, what do you mean by what you just said? What do you mean that everyone applies like me? Who else has applied for this project besides me applying for purchase materials?"

Qu Shoulin looked at him like a fool and said, "Everyone can apply." Professor Cheng, Professor Wu, Director Gao, and me, there are more than 10 people in this research group, how can you say that others are not eligible to apply?"

"But, this is my project!" Wang Hongtai was anxious. He is honest, but the clay man still has a dirty temperament, and he is good at applying for the project, and it is just a matter of letting others be the project leader, anyway, it is just a false name, and it is good to let him work. Now even his funds have to be snatched away, so what else can he do? The 500,000 yuan fund was determined by Wu Shican after careful evaluation, and the amount is so high, because this project is very difficult, and the experimental materials used are also very expensive. To paraphrase a later generation, although the budget is high, not a penny is superfluous.

can listen to Qu Shoulin's meaning, those who are named in front of them not only want their names, but also share their funds, and they are the kind that everyone shares equally. No, he is still too optimistic, so people don't bother to share it with him, he is a professor, he is a big cow, he is just an ant, what qualifications do he have to share with others?

Realizing this, Wang Hongtai finally couldn't calm down, this is not a thing that can be compromised, and there are requirements for the Heavy Equipment Office to hand over the subject to him. He can not care about the name, but if the funds are divided, he will not be able to complete the project, and he will not be able to explain to the Heavy Equipment Office at that time. Thinking of Wu Shican and Feng Xiaochen's trust in him, Wang Hongtai had an urge to run away.

There is no point in arguing with Qu Shoulin, Lao Qu will not quarrel with him, and he is still hospitalized. Wang Hongtai threw down the gift he brought, returned to the school angrily, rushed into the office of the head of the department, Gao Xinwei, and shouted:

"Director Gao, what is the matter with my project! Why is the project I applied for, but the funds are distributed to other people, and I don't even have the qualifications to use the funds, who gave you the power!"
