Chapter 106 Establish a basic material research and development system
The news that Jiangnan No. 1 Machinery Factory is going to be split is like a whirlwind sweeping the entire factory, just now the news came out that everyone does not know the specific content, all kinds of rumors are everywhere, causing people to worry. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This is the rumor that the eldest brother deliberately let go, after all, this matter is too big and is related to the interests of the employees of the whole factory. So first leak some rumors to see what the public opinion is, the heads of the factory came to inquire about the news, and the eldest brother was also fragmented and refused to tell the truth.
Half a month later, with the announcement of the official split plan, the official documents were posted in the factory. At this time, the workers generally accepted the fact of the split, and now the only question they are entangled in is to go to the Panda Group as an ordinary worker, or to stay in Southern Heavy Industry to continue to work in military enterprises.
Although they are all state-owned enterprises, the treatment is very different!
From the current point of view, the treatment and daily benefits of going to the Panda Group are several times that of military enterprises, and life is much better. However, staying in a military enterprise as a military worker, although the money is small, the status is not comparable to that of an ordinary enterprise, and the hidden benefits are not worse than going to the Panda Group.
Of course, not everyone has the right to choose, for example, weapons researchers will be included in military enterprises, and workers with excellent skills will also be selected, in other words, the elites accumulated by the Jiangnan factory for decades have been siphoned off by Chen Xu.
Soon, the list of the leadership team of Southern Heavy Industry was announced, and the structure of each department and the subordinate R&D personnel were also announced one by one, just like the list of scientific expeditions was posted on the most conspicuous bulletin board of the factory.
After seeing that they were left in the military enterprise, most people first sighed, and then nodded and obeyed the arrangement, and almost no one had any objections to the organization's arrangement.
After the official announcement of the division of the business of the military factory, it caused a huge shock in Xiangping City. As one of the largest businesses in the region, it was really remarkable to suddenly make such an unprecedented move. After all, in the first 30 years, China took the path of the Soviet Union's development of heavy industry, and military enterprises accounted for a large proportion, and the way out of these enterprises was the most concerned issue in the imperial capital.
The local Xiangping Municipal Government is very supportive of this matter, and the original one enterprise has become two, and it is certainly happy to collect two taxes.
The next is to divide the assets of the arsenal, all the high-end CNC machine tools imported from Japan will undoubtedly belong to Nanfang Heavy Industries, and more high-end CNC machine tools and precision instruments need to be purchased to expand production. More than 60 workshops have been built in the factory area of the military factory, all of which are the latest modern factory buildings, and all of them have been assigned to the production department of the military enterprise in the south.
The dormitory area has also been returned to the military enterprise, and the employees of the Panda Group, who have just moved in and lived not long ago, will soon face the problem of moving, but the costs are borne by the enterprise, and the employees will have no opinions on sending Taiwan University color TVs to each family.
In addition, there are more than 1,000 acres of vast fields, which were originally contracted by the machinery factory in the mountains and forests, and the factory survived by relying on self-sufficiency in farming during the period of the big pump, and such a large piece of land can be used for the expansion of the machinery factory in the future to build new factories and dormitories, and now all of them are allocated to military enterprises.
Panda Group now has no factory or dormitory, and the only poor people are workers and money. However, it is still possible to share the workshop with Southern Heavy Industries, Chen Xu has already found a large piece of land for the Panda Group in a convenient place in the east of Xiangping City, taking advantage of the cheap land price and the government's half-sold and half-given land. Soon a modern industrial park will be built on the land, and when the new factories and dormitories are built, they will all move in.
In addition, the machinery factory also has two valve factories and bearing factories imported from Japan, at the beginning, it may be that Mr. Deng looked down on such two small factories, or the Japanese were stingy, and the scale of the two factories was only more than 300 people, so they were classified under the name of the military factory.
But I have to say that although the two factories are small, the technology is top-notch, and the process has been done to the extreme.
For example, the bearing factory can make engine spindle bearings, and can also make ball bearings with the size of a palm.
The price of a ball bearing is 120 yuan, which is 60 times more expensive than the ball bearing originally manufactured by the machinery factory for two yuan a piece. But the expensive one doesn't stop for two minutes with a slight flick of the bearing, and the friction is minimal. And the domestic bearing of 2 yuan a piece stops after two or three seconds, which shows that the friction inside is too great.
A small bearing technology, involving material science and the technology behind it, is definitely not a sentence or two can be explained.
In fact, even if he got the bearing factory and valve factory, Chen Xu found that it would be useless, because the materials for making bearings and valves still had to be imported from Japan, and the source was still controlled by foreign countries.
The backwardness of basic science is absolutely not something that can be compensated for by the introduction of one or two advanced enterprises.
These two companies were divided into military enterprises, after all, their technology is used in a wide range of weapons and equipment, and it is too wasteful for the Panda Group.
However, these two small Japanese factories have given Chen Xu a great reminder that he patronizes the introduction of advanced factories and technologies from abroad, but forgets the investment in basic material science.
In the future of the rapid development of science and technology in the world, basic material science may still be empty in the end!
Just taking advantage of this military factory split, Chen Xu set out to establish a scientific research system based on materials science.
After the establishment of Nanfang Heavy Industry, it will establish a large-scale laboratory with specialized categories such as semiconductor materials, nanomaterials, carbon fiber composite materials, and special steels. At the same time, it will also carry out technical reserves on carbon materials, superconducting materials, and battery material technologies, especially battery materials, which can accumulate a large amount of technology for the birth of electric vehicles in the future, and even directly establish industry standards and become a monopoly business.
In short, materials science is a pit, including many categories, new energy materials, intelligent materials, information materials, etc., are only one of the branches.
Take a fourth-generation aircraft as an example, not to mention the most complex aero engine technology, even the stealth coating on the aircraft shell is inseparable from material science.
Chen Xu advanced $500 million in scientific research funds from the $5 billion military purchase to find 20 key universities with excellent qualifications across the country, and funded these universities to establish materials science laboratories and open corresponding materials science courses.
In order to avoid duplication of investment, these universities have their own priorities in the choice of materials science. A university can carry out research on more than a dozen different materials at the same time, and 20 universities, together with Southern Heavy Industry, basically cover hundreds of the most popular key material technologies in the next 30 years.
Of course, Chen Xu has established a strict review system for the use of experimental funds for these universities, if you don't do a good job of prevention, those universities are likely to do other things after getting the money, and scientific research cannot be carried out without money, and even if you shoot the president at that time, it will be useless.
In these days, universities are poor! It's hard to have millions of funds a year, not to mention that Chen Xu will allocate 100 million R&D funds to these universities every year in the future, and he will try his best to win this fund!
Therefore, even though Chen Xu proposed very strict rules for the use of funds, qualified universities across the country still flocked to them, all of whom were personally led by the president, leading the school's smartest students and documents to prove the school's qualifications to Chen Xu.
After layers of screening, Chen Xu finally finalized 20 universities, and each university first gave 20 million to build the experimental building. In order to prevent these universities from fooling around, he also deliberately set aside 1 million research funds to ask these universities to send people to Europe and the United States for field visits to see how other people's modern laboratories are being conducted.
Worried that these fledgling universities would suffer losses in the purchase of imported equipment, Chen Xu handed over the procurement work to the procurement department of Southern Heavy Industry, and all universities needed to introduce new experimental equipment, they must submit an application to Southern Heavy Industry, and then go abroad to buy after approval.
When these universities have experience, it is not too late to delegate procurement authority.
Of course, it is impossible to rely on Chen Xu alone to support the annual R&D funds of these universities with two billion yuan, and in the next few years, Chen Xu will let the Panda Group gradually bear the expenditure of these scientific research funds.
At the same time, it will also guide other domestic enterprises to invest together, and the university has come up with new technologies, and all investors are eligible to use them. Or let them learn from Panda Group to invest in other universities to set up laboratories and research new technologies, so that they can occupy the commanding heights of the market and earn huge profits.
As long as the Panda Group makes a lot of money through this model of setting up laboratories in universities, other domestic enterprises will also move and look for universities everywhere to invest in laboratories, and it is conceivable that in the future, Chinese universities will no longer have to worry about lack of funds.
Under the survival of the fittest, the more research-focused universities become famous, the more companies flock to them, and the more scientific research funding they get.
As the country's economy takes off, companies need more and more technology, and the kind of universities that receive tens of billions of dollars a year in the future will no longer be news.
The university-enterprise research system cannot be established in a moment, and the results of this kind will not be seen until 10 years later.
This scientific research system was only conceived by Chen Xu on a whim, and what kind of fruit such a scientific research system bears can only be tasted after ten years.
Even Chen Xu himself didn't realize that he was already using his influence to change the country before he knew it. (To be continued.) )
