With Mr. Wang's introduction, the work progress of Dahua Industrial suddenly became much faster, and through it, the public relations department quickly persuaded another academician. However, Su Cheng rarely came forward, and he would only appear when the other party formally asked to meet. The rest of the time, Sioux City is either on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange or in the Dahua Laboratory.

After two years, Dahua Offshore Oil Research Institute, Dahua Third Oil Production Institute and the newly established Dahua Petrochemical Research Institute have all produced a series of achievements. Most of them come from technology transfer from abroad, and a small part from follow-up research, but there are also several projects that have been focused on development and established their own patent systems.

In terms of time, this is already very fast. In addition to the large amount of foreign exchange investment, the role of researchers in the UOB laboratory is more prominent. Chapter 307 Oil Monitoring System

After several years of training and accumulation, the more than 50 researchers recruited by Sioux City to "remember the name" gradually began to emerge. In order to make an ordinary oil university graduate remember his name, these researchers naturally have a different level, including the authors of abominable textbooks, the "bibliographers" who cannot be bypassed by academic papers, and the most common are the winners of certain awards, such as the National Science Progress Award - although the second or third level of the National Progress Award is already very powerful, if it does not reach the level of perversion, it will not be remembered by an undergraduate.

It can be said that at least one-third of these young people are qualified to be academicians in the future.

Sioux City was able to recruit them, and it took a lot of thought and resources. At least in today's China, no one arranges round-trip air travel in order to recruit people, and offers a dividend system similar to that of large foreign companies. There is also a high degree of flexibility in the various research facilities and research programs.

Compared with the national researchers, who have remained rigid in the 21st century, Dahua Industrial's appeal to young people is undeniable.

And they have also given Dahua Lab a considerable return. In 1990, Dahua Industrial added a new chapter 307 oil monitoring system with the same number of patents as PetroChina and Sinopec, and the technology purchased and transformed from abroad was second only to CNOOC.

In terms of the ratio of number of people to efficiency, Dahua Industrial is more than 10 times that of Sinopec. Of course, this is not unusual, and by 2010 there were too many Chinese companies that were 10 times more efficient than state-owned enterprises. What's more, Dahua has so many academician-level figures.

Speaking of which, most academicians often produce a large number of achievements and important results when they are in their thirties and forties. They are young and energetic, and it is the best time to do their careers, and when they really become academicians, their own scientific research ability has entered a state of degradation.

Academicians are not so much a recognition of ability as an honor. When they work as think tanks for the country's leaders, the level of professionalism is more than enough. But it's hard to do if you want them to continue their painstaking research. Most of the time, directing his fellow researchers to do strenuous research is already a bit more than they are age-related to.

This was even more evident when Sioux City saw the entry for "Oil Monitoring System" in the lab.

"Who made it. Su Cheng put down the directory and asked.

Around him stood a circle of researchers, all of whom were young. Lost in institutions such as the Academy of Sciences, they first have to wash flasks and wash for three years before they have the opportunity to learn from teachers.

Yes, with the current situation in China's academic circles, it is even more common for a young researcher to be blamed if he does not have a master with a strong background, not to mention the lack of research resources. I have heard very little about Zhang Guan and Li Dai, and I guess I will always be a mystery.

In the Dahua laboratory, there are people who can't stand the research atmosphere of the institution. When it comes to Dahua Industrial, the only thing they need to compete for is research funding and research progress.

The peer review process not only requires evaluation review and case closure review, but also projects that fail to meet the requirements of the mid-term progress review or cannot produce benefits are worried about being reduced or even cut. But as long as they compete openly, research and work hard, there is no additional burden on researchers.

At this moment, some people looked enviously at a thin young man in the back row. Even at a young age, he looked a little too young, almost like a college student. He shrunk his shoulders tightly, obviously a little uncomfortable with the crowd of onlookers.

Li Lianxiang has completely turned into a technical official, and whispered in Su Cheng's ear: "Li Zhou jumped a grade to study since he was a child, and he was a young man we recruited last year, and he won the first place in the project review at the end of the year, and got the opportunity to start the project independently, which is his first project." ”

"I see there are 47 patents written on the back, how did he do it?" Su Cheng whispered in Li Lianxiang, and the others could only watch curiously.

Li Lianxiang said helplessly: "This kid hardly sleeps, and the first lubricant he made was very exciting, and after the determination of the council, I arranged two assistants for him." The progress went up all at once. ”

Not every researcher has the opportunity to work on a project independently. In China, if a researcher is 40 years old and can lead an independent project team, he can be called young and promising. If you're lucky, you'll be a top student. Foreign research institutions are well-funded and are often able to provide independent project funding to outstanding researchers around the age of 30, but most people do not have such opportunities until they are 35 years old.

Of course, it is impossible for most researchers to lead a single project in their lifetime, especially those projects with huge costs, which are often only qualified to be done by prospective students. This is a job that examines both ability and energy, and is not the pursuit of every researcher.

Even at Dahua Labs, no more than 10 new independent projects are opened each year, and others either continue their previous projects or work as assistants to other project teams. It is not uncommon for two or even three projects to be combined.

Su Cheng nodded slightly, took the technical document of the "Oil Monitoring System" system, and looked at it carefully.

His knowledge of this is really only a general one, but the system itself is very valuable. It is an active maintenance technology, which carries out lubrication management by detecting the lubrication and wear status of equipment, reducing the cost of equipment maintenance, and ensuring the safety and reliability of equipment.

Although it is only a repair technique. But in reality, it involves a huge amount of money. According to domestic and international research reports, more than 80% of equipment failures are related to lubrication. Diesel engines, rolling bearings, gearboxes and hydraulics are the hardest hit areas. Their failure is not only a matter of buying a bearing or a gearbox replacement, but also involving the frequency of equipment overhaul and equipment failure.

For example, large ethylene equipment, a major overhaul needs to be shut down for at least 36 hours, and the loss of profits must exceed 10 million, and the difference between two overhauls a year and two overhauls in three years is huge.

Japan's Nippon Steel used oil monitoring technology in 1978, and by 1986 their equipment failure rate had dropped by 65 percent, rolling bearing purchases by 50 percent, and hydraulic pump replacement by 80 percent...... In terms of funding, the system could save them at least tens of millions of dollars.

The application of this technology around the world can save hundreds of billions of yuan every year.

It was only in the 21st century that China began to try to make proactive repairs, not because of how difficult the oil monitoring system was, but because the state-owned enterprises were not confident in their management. On the other hand, the country's enthusiasm for one-time investment is relatively high, and the enthusiasm for long-term investment is extremely low, which also makes this system useless.

But for Sioux City, which is preparing to launch a petrochemical base, this system is very suitable. It's no wonder that Li Zhou was able to get two assistants and a lot of money.

"Has it been tested?" said Sioux again.

"We tested it, we installed it on Casali's methanol plant, and it was already running successfully......"

"Ran for 126 days. When Li Zhou talked about his project, he no longer had stage fright.

"How's it going?"

"Very good, three times more effective than Casali's own simple system. Compared to older methanol plants that did not have any monitoring systems installed, there were 75 to 80 percent fewer equipment failures and half the amount of lubricant used. The answer is still Li Lianxiang. Li Zhou listened with shining eyes.

A set of 100,000 tons of methanol equipment, it is natural to replace 20,000 or 30,000 yuan of lubricating oil a day, and the same is true for other equipment. It can be said that any little savings in it, there is a double value.

Su Cheng looked at the project report, and the development cost of the entire oil monitoring system was only 2 million yuan. Put it on 5 sets of large methanol equipment, and you can earn back the cost in a few months. What other business makes money faster than this......

Seeing that Su Cheng was satisfied, Li Lin picked up the pen and said, "In this case, we put the oil monitoring system on the catalog of academician evaluation?"

"Well, find a project, put an oil monitoring system in it. "I have worked hard to invite academicians to do the evaluation, so it is natural to show the best side and hide the not so good side.

Li Lin then used a pen to write the "oil monitoring system" on the whiteboard behind Su Cheng. On the same whiteboard, there are more than a dozen other entries.

Li Zhou clenched his fists. The projects on the whiteboard represent the façade for the public relations department, and for the researchers of the Dahua Research Office, it means more resources are tilted.

Sure enough, Su Cheng put down the document and said: "Add two more people to the oil monitoring project team, and choose from the people recruited this year." In addition, if you are sure that the results are excellent, try to install another device to form a complete experimental system. ”！！！
