The speed at which this money arrived was even faster than Zhong Bai and Xu Guang had thought!

Xu Guangxian, who was originally scheduled to return to the Baiyun Obo mining area on the 4th, received a notice from the relevant departments of Jingcheng University on the evening of the 3rd, telling him not to leave the university for the time being tomorrow, saying that he had something to do.

When asked what it was, the office didn't say why, just waited, saying that they didn't know the inside story.

Xu Guangxian didn't think about this matter to Zhong Bai at all, and the train ticket that had already been bought could only be refunded first.

And when he met with Zhong Bai on the morning of the 4th, Zhong Bai mentioned that he had raised 100,000 yuan from the Nanyun Provincial Association for Science and Technology for research funds!

"Could it be that this is the matter for me not to leave today?" Although Xu Guang was well-informed, he had returned to China for so many years, and he had basically stayed in the capital, and it was the first time he had heard of the need to run 100,000 yuan of funds across the local, central and so many departments in the system.

Academician Xu actually felt a little bit that Zhong Bai was bragging.

What are you kidding, this is not 1,000 yuan, but 100,000 yuan!

But then the comrades in the office came to him and took him to the school's finance office to go through the procedures for transferring funds, Xu Guangxian realized that Zhong Bai had really done it!

When he returned to his office again, looking at Zhong Bai who was waiting here with a confident smile on his face, Xu Guangxian didn't know what to say.

He looked at Zhong Bai, shook his head as if he was a little puzzled, and asked in a slightly questioning tone: "Xiao Zhong, my next words are not derogatory, but I really want to say that it is not easy to get such a large amount of money, you have such a great ability, I feel that you are really a talent to be a small section chief of a provincial department!" Maybe...... You should be in business. ”

"Well, in fact, this matter is really a bit of a coincidence, didn't I explain it to you before, it was originally just to let a student of the Chinese Department go to the "Mysteries" magazine for an internship, and by the way, help us write a good report on the subject, but I didn't expect the commander of the 35th Division to be so sincere, hey...... Actually, I didn't really take the initiative to speak. ”

If someone else says this, it is undoubtedly a show-off.

But Zhong Bai explained to Xu Guangxian in such a sincere tone, and he did believe it.

The military has always been very generous to local meritorious personnel in military-civilian cooperation, and there is a common understanding in the scientific community.

Xu Guangxian was not very clear about what Zhong Bai was doing in the field of chemical fertilizers, so he just took this opportunity to ask: "Then it seems that the special chemical fertilizer you are engaged in should be of great help to the Nanyun Provincial Military Region!" Otherwise, how could the Wei division commander take the initiative to let the Provincial Association for Science and Technology support 100,000 yuan as soon as he opened his mouth? I guess that your technology should have saved them at least 300,000 dollars, did it? ”

Help others save 300,000, so people support 100,000, this number ratio seems reasonable in Xu Guangxian's experience, so he asked, but Zhong Bai touched his nose, and after thinking for a while, he replied seriously: "It should be more than that...... At the beginning, the first batch of special fertilizers should have had a benefit of almost 1 million yuan in the past, and there were three batches intermittently later, and in March, the scope of application was expanded, and some support was provided to the Xiguang Autonomous Region. In total, it is conservatively estimated that it has saved them at least about 5 million in reclamation funds. ”

"5 million?!" Hearing this number, Xu Guangxian couldn't help but gasp!

For the fertilizer industry, which in his eyes seems to be a small industrial sub-field with very mature technology, a technological innovation can create an economic value of no less than 5 million yuan in just half a year.

Originally, there was no one in the factory due to Zhou Changqing's MD treatment, and the pressure on Xu Guangxian caused by difficulties in raising funds and transferring people in the early stage, but it was invisibly reduced a lot because of Zhong Bai's weighty answer just now!

"Whew...... You kid, if we don't say 5 million in Ningyuan Rare Earth Metallurgical Plant this time, even if this factory can make a profit of 500,000, it is worth writing a special book! Xu Guang thought about the reality first, and said rationally: "But now the electrolytic separation of neodymium elements is still an unknown and extremely challenging work for us. You insist on using fluoride system molten salt electrolytic oxides to produce neodymium metal, and I don't know how many experiments you have to experiment to succeed...... Hey, the whole rare earth thing is a new thing, and it needs to be explored, but it's a waste of money! ”

"Academician Xu, you don't have to worry so much, didn't you just have 100,000 yuan in funds? Maybe there will be a similar 'unexpected joy' in the future? Zhong Bai smiled mysteriously and said: "Hehe, besides, the experiment, although it is indeed costly, maybe we don't need many times to get stable data to confirm the conclusion?" So I'm very optimistic, and I hope you can be optimistic, which will help us in our future work! ”

To Xu Guangxian's ears, this was just Zhong Bai's words to comfort himself: "How can it be so easy in the rare earth industry?" Not to mention anything else, it took me more than a year to explore the 'cascade extraction method' and finally form a complete theory and get data support, and now your fluoride system, I'm afraid it's not so easy." ”

"It's a mule or a horse, pull it out and walk it." Of course, Zhong Bai knew how correct and effective the method proposed and perfected by Academician Xu Guangxian in his previous life was, and he didn't want to dwell too much on this issue, after all, when he went to the factory, he knew if there was one or not.

"By the way, today's train ticket has been refunded, and I am afraid that I can only buy a ticket until the day after tomorrow." Xu Guang patted his head before remembering this: "Isn't that the two of us going to delay one more day in the capital?" It seems that there is not much time left before the New Year, and there is not much time left! ”

Zhong Bai thought for a while and suggested, "I remember when we first went to the Baiyun Obo mining area, didn't we charter a car?" Since it takes time to buy a ticket, you might as well charter another car. ”

"How can it be so easy to charter a car? The last time the chartered car was the money from the alloy factory, and now although we have just added 100,000 yuan in funds, we can save a little bit and use it more for experiments and productivity! Xu Guangxian is still quite frugal, thinking about Lao Zhou, who is far away in MD, he feels a little bored, thinking that he can only save more on this.

"Ah, I thought you had a chartered bus from Jingcheng University last time. In that case......" Zhong Bai scratched his scalp and said with a smile: "If you can contact a free chartered car, can you?" ”

"Then why don't you agree? Free of course is good! Xu Guangxian nodded immediately, suddenly realized something, and turned his head to look at Zhong Bai: "You asked me to go to the leaders of Beijing University to ask for a chartered car?" Forget it, I haven't brought students to this topic recently, so I'm afraid it's inconvenient to talk about it......"

"I didn't ask you to contact you, I said I'd find a way to get in touch." Zhong Bai smiled and said.

"You are a small section chief from other places, and you are not familiar with the place in the capital, where can you contact him?" Xu Guangxian immediately glared at Zhong Bai, and asked rhetorically with some "love".

"You don't have to worry about this, anyway, it's no problem to get a car today." Zhong Bai smiled slightly, turned around and left Xu Guangxian's office.
