The next topic in the afternoon turned directly to the Xinpu refining project.

Xinpu Development and Investment Group can be responsible for the supply of land for project construction, and Zhongxin and Hongji can invest 600 million yuan in project start-up funds, and the key is to have people.

The "people" here do not mean how strong Yang Lin's personal professional ability is. No matter how strong Yang Lin's personal ability is, there is no way to replace the team to build and operate the entire project.

In addition to inspecting Yang Lin's professional ability and development vision, Shen Huai also examined whether Yang Lin has the ability to tap enough professionals from the refining and chemical industry circle to form a cohesive team above the level.

The team is not professional enough, or the team members are professional enough, but due to the lack of leadership and organizational skills of the leader, the whole team is discouraged, which will bring a fatal blow to the construction and operation of the project.

Shen Huai has a good impression of Yang Lin, and Qin Dawei is also a reliable introducer, but it is impossible for him to give Yang Lin enough trust on the first day of contact, and there needs to be a relatively long process of investigation and running-in.

Regarding the early development of the whole project, Shen Huai also has his plan, and he said to Yang Lin:

"As for the feasibility study of the Xinpu refining and chemical project, even if Xiapu County does not come forward, it can be jointly carried out with the Department of Chemical Engineering of Huaida for a three-month research project in the name of Hongji. ”

"Why did you push Hongji's head?" Song Hongjun sat aside and asked suspiciously, "It's not that I don't want to take over, I don't know anything about this, so I can't take over......"

"It's good for you to provide funding for the project," Shen Huai said, "The time is very tight, the procedure should be simplified, and the joint project with Huaida in the name of Hongji is the most rapid, and after the negotiation is completed, you can sign the contract tomorrow and start the project directly." Sun Yalin flew back to Paris, otherwise she would have come in the name of Zhongxin. If Xinpu comes forward, even if I can do something special, I will sign all the words, and the whole process will take a week. Isn't Song Tong very sticky to Zhou Zhibai? You let Song Tong be the coordinator of this topic, and she will also learn to do something......"

Hearing Shen Huai say this, Song Hongjun had no doubt: "That's okay, I'll directly pull Song Tong over and hand it over to you, and the funds will be transferred from Hongji for the time being, as long as I don't tie me up in Xucheng to be in charge of this matter." ”

Shen Huai is determined to build a large refining and chemical industry in Xinpu, and it doesn't matter whether Hongji, Zhongxin or Xinpu Development Group is taking the lead, the key is to see which side can draw out manpower.

Shen Huai said to Yang Lin again: "Over there in the Department of Chemical Engineering of Huaida University, we will ask you to participate in the research as one of the leaders. In addition to the project funds, we will also give all those directly involved in the research of the project a monthly work allowance of no less than 3,000 yuan, and Hongji and the Xiapu County Office in Xu will fully cooperate with your research work to ensure that the whole project can be completed in depth within three months. The key is the project funding, how much do you think it will be needed......"

"Do you want me to say this?" Yang Lin asked with some puzzlement.

Every year, although the departments are fixed by the state to give research topics, due to the tight financial research funds, there are many departments, you are a doctoral supervisor on your side, and he is an academician on the other.

Even if there is a surplus of funds allocated by these countries, they cannot be privately appropriated or privately divided according to the policy, and can only be used to purchase laboratory equipment or to subsidize the shortage of funds for other projects.

In the case of joint research with local enterprises, the excess funds do not need to be returned to the enterprise after the project is completed, and it becomes the surplus of the research group. For the allocation of excess project funds, in addition to a part of the transfer to the laboratory and the school, Huaida also has a corresponding incentive policy for the researchers participating in the project.

Therefore, in addition to the fixed subsidy of more than 200 doctoral students per month, Yang Lin's other sources of income are mainly project awards.

However, at present, the domestic industry-university alliance has not yet formed a scale, and Huaida, as a first-class university in China, still has few research topics with enterprise alliances and relatively abundant funds. The 341 laboratory of the Department of Chemical Engineering of Huaida University, where Yang Lin is located, is a national key laboratory in the field of petrochemical, and the person in charge is Wang Kunshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Shen Huai promised to give all those involved in the research an additional subsidy of no less than 3,000 yuan per month, which is more than the income of most people in the current laboratory. Yang Lin also understood that Shen Huai hoped that Huaida would send as many researchers as possible to participate in this project.

However, the determination of project funding is usually a negotiation between the laboratory and the company.

As the leader of the school's participation in the project, Yang Lin naturally hoped that the higher the funding, the better, but he knew that Shen Huai obviously would not mean this, so he was a little uncertain.

In the face of Yang Lin's uncertainty, Shen Huai said with affirmation: "I hope that this project can be operated immediately, and the project funds should be relaxed, but how wide it is appropriate, you need to give me advice......

"If it's just a pure subject research, and in the end it is just a feasibility study report, three or five hundred thousand yuan is enough to do it thoroughly," Yang Lin pondered for a moment, "If the project feasibility study has to pave the way for the preparation of the next project, three million will not be too much." ”

"Okay, then set three million first, if it's not enough, I'll make up for it later. However, you also have to sign an employment agreement with Hongji, so that you can participate in this project as a project coordinator and coordinate the relationship between all parties," Shen Huai made a decisive decision, and asked Yang Lin, "Can you meet with Mr. Wang Kunshan for three million?"

"If you can't see three million, that's a joke, the total project funds of our laboratory for a year are only a few million, less than ten million," Yang Lin said with a smile, "However, Wang Kunshan is a very easy-going person, we all call him Lao Wang Tou, even if it is a basic research topic of tens of thousands of yuan, he will sit down with you very seriously to discuss." ”

Shen Huai sighed lightly, some core laboratories in Europe and the United States, the annual research funding is in the hundreds of millions of dollars, and the domestic scientific research work is much more pleasant.

Shen Huai said: "Although the Spring Festival will be celebrated in less than 20 days, this topic cannot be delayed until after the Spring Festival. You can take the lead and find a cooperative survey and design institute, in addition to Song Tong, I will ask Qian Wenhui and Liao Dezhi to fully cooperate with you here in Xucheng, and you may also call me at any time. ”

At this time, Yang Lin and Qin Dachuan could be sure that the rumors that Meigang was going to build a large refining in Xinpu at the same time were true.

Shen Huai said again: "When can Teacher Wang Kunshan take time, I will go over and ask him for advice......

The current situation in China is that it is better to sell tea and eggs than to make missiles, and the knowledge economy is not worth much.

Colleges and universities do not need 350,000 yuan to conduct a feasibility study on a pure topic for an industrial project, and a 3 million ton refining and chemical project is much more complicated than an ordinary industrial project, and 350,000 yuan can be done.

Shen Huai's purpose is to pave the way and lay the foundation for the preparation of the next project through this subject research, which will cost a lot.

However, now that the foreshadowing and foundation have been laid, a lot of time and money can be saved in the next project design and review process. More importantly, through the development of this research topic, we will also look for team candidates for the construction and operation of the Xinpu Refining and Chemical Project in the future.

The investment of the whole project is guaranteed to be 3 billion yuan, and the preliminary preparation cost is 350 million yuan, which Shen Huai feels is not much at all; even if the initial start-up funds are tight, the money that should be used still needs to be used.

Yang Lin can estimate the figure of 3 million, which shows that his practical work experience in Xuyou for ten years is still rich enough, and he also has experience in planning the construction of refining and chemical projects.

Of course, Shen Huai picked Yang Lin, in addition to Yang Lin's personal professional ability and practical experience, Yang Lin's 341 laboratory of the Department of Chemical Engineering of Huaida supported by Wang Kunshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is also the target of Shen Huai.

The 341 laboratory is one of the thirteen national key laboratories in Huaihai Province and five national key laboratories in Huaida University; in the field of petrochemical industry, it is also one of the top three laboratories in the country, and its achievements in the development and innovation of large-scale refining and chemical technology in China are also outstanding; and the metallurgical design and research institute that Meigang cooperated with Huaida is much more powerful.

Huaida is not the strongest in the country in metallurgy.

Wang Kunshan, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as the head of the laboratory, is seventy years old and cannot retire, the host of the Xinpu refining and chemical project, Shen Huai's current four candidate lists, in addition to Yang Lin, there are two people who are under Wang Kunshan's disciple.

If the doctoral and master's students trained by Wang Kun over the past decades are listed, it is enough to select a dazzling star lineup for the Xinpu refining and chemical project. However, the vast majority of these people have gained a solid position in the current petrochemical industry, and Yang Lin is still studying for a doctorate and master's degree, and there are only eleven or two people.

Wei Fenghua, Zheng Jianzhang and others did not have much interest in the Xinpu Refining & Chemical Project, and the Zhunan Refining & Chemical Project also needed an efficient and professional team to preside over it, so Shen Huai considered using the medium of 341 Laboratory of the Department of Chemical Engineering of Huaida to find a new team candidate for the Xinpu Refining & Chemical Project.

Shen Huai will not throw out the formation of the team and ask Yang Lin to take on it alone, and even the core members of the entire team have to be personally selected by him; perhaps there are people with better comprehensive ability and quality than Yang Lin, and Shen Huai will have to readjust the structure of the team.

In contrast, after Meigang reorganized Xucheng Oil Refining through backdoor refinery, after Xinpu Refining & Chemical was officially launched, grassroots technology and management personnel could be seconded from Xuyou, but there would be no shortage.

After Meigang reorganizes Xucheng oil refining through backdoor, it will take over the 3,000 employees on the job, of which nearly 800 are technical management personnel above the junior level, and the proportion is not particularly high.

However, after the completion of the Zhunan refining and chemical project, there will be a large number of personnel remaining in the new process and new equipment, which can be transferred to supplement the shortage of manpower in the Xinpu refining project - this is also something that Shen Huai calculated at the beginning of taking over Xucheng refining. Zhunan Refining & Chemical Co., Ltd. should travel lightly, and it did not want to force a large number of workers to be laid off, so Xinpu Refinery & Chemical Co., Ltd. also had to prepare.

After dinner, Shen Huai immediately arranged for a car to send Yang Lin and Qin Dawei back.

In one day, presumably Yang Lin had no way to figure out an idea, and Shen Huai agreed to meet again in three days to finalize the details.
