With Yan Yutian slamming the door away, this morning's internship class could only be temporarily stopped, Xu Guangxian ordered everyone to go back to the guest house room to read the materials.

Just as Zhong Bai was about to leave, Xu Guang grabbed him first, and said with a serious face: "Go, come with me." ”

This tone, this expression, you don't have to think about it, Zhong Bai knows that Xu Guang is highly suspicious of what he just said.

It was impossible for Zhong Bai to refuse this kind of request, so he could only silently follow Xu Guangxian and go to an empty office.

After entering the door, Xu Guangxian didn't even let Zhong Bai sit down and began to ask questions. "I have also had this idea before, and someone abroad actually made it first? Which country is it? What is your name? ”

Zhong Bai can't answer this question casually, and it's not something that can be prevaricated by finding a reason.

Because the person in front of him is known as the "father of rare earths in China" in his previous life, and he is the academician who has the deepest research on the rare earth industry in the whole country!

Zhong Bai is also thinking about how to answer this question, because this set of sulfuric acid low-temperature roasting and decomposition process was actually proposed by Xu Guangxian himself in the previous life!

That's right, at least the Chinese version of the idea, was first proposed by Xu Guangxian in 1995.

After eight years, the result was finally perfected by a total of seven comrades from Baotou Rare Earth Research Institute!

So when the other party's sentence "I have had this idea before" came out, Zhong Bai knew that this question was difficult to answer.

Of course, the so-called "a friend in Europe" was naturally made by Zhong Bai out of nothing, in fact, he didn't want to throw it out at this time, it was really because Yan Yutian's statement was too confident and forcibly rounded, so Zhong Bai couldn't help but reprimand the other party on the spot and came up with a better solution.

As a doctor with experience in M, if he lied about MD's research, Xu Guangxian would definitely be able to confirm the authenticity of his explanation in a short time, and then he could only put this so-called "friend" in Europe!

Zhong Bai knew that Xu Guangxian was very uneasy with the French, because when he was studying the "cascade extraction method", he was ridiculed by the French Luoya company, saying that these primitive methods of you Chinese people are destined to be in vain, so it is relatively difficult to verify in this regard.

So Zhong Bai thought for a moment before giving his answer: "This was told to me by a French engineer. ”

Xu Guangxian asked in hot pursuit: "French? What's the name? Which company? ”

"Brown. He previously worked for Planck in France. Zhong Bai unhurriedly threw out the name of an acquaintance.

"Brown? Planck & Co.? Xu Guangxian was very surprised by this answer, and couldn't help frowning and falling into deep thought.

Although France has no rare earth resources, it has the world's largest rare earth separation and processing enterprise - Roa Rare Earth Co., Ltd., whose predecessor is the rare earth and gallium division of the chemical department of Rhône Planck (Group) of France, which has a history of more than 100 years.

It is the latter that Zhong Bai is talking about, this company is definitely real.

And Brown...... Of course, it is the same Brown who used to be specially hired for the Swiss Patent Office and is now obediently working at the Huaxi Machinery Factory in Chongqing!

Of course, Brown did not work at any Planck company at all, but Zhong Bai believed that Xu Guangxian would not be able to find them for verification, because as soon as the two French companies heard that a professor surnamed Xu Hua Guo asked them about their past personnel information and scientific research achievements?

Dream about it, it's good not to scold you, don't think that capitalists won't hold grudges, okay?

"Okay, then I'll believe what you say, you're young, you shouldn't be able to make achievements in this area." Xu Guangxian shook his head slightly, and shifted his attention to the process itself: "Then do you remember some detailed experimental procedures and data, I need to study ......?"

Having a real-time conversation with Da Niu about a current new technology was of course a good opportunity for Zhong Bai to ask for, and he immediately nodded: "Yes, but I need pen and paper." ”

"I have it with me." Xu Guangxian hurriedly took out the white paper and pen, pulled a chair and sat down: "Let's start." ”

Soon, the two entered into an academic discussion on an equal footing.

"The value of alpha activity?"

“9.10*10^3。”

"Is there any specific data on the effect of roasting time?"

"There's a 2D vector drawing, I'll show you."

"What about the effect of temperature on leaching rate? This is very important, because without exact experimental data and summary formulas, everything can only be counted as an accident. ”

"There must be this, you wait a minute......"

“……”

In this way, an old man and a young man unconsciously entered the ocean of scientific research, at this time there is no section chief, there is no academician, they seem to be like a long-term partner in a scientific research group, a question and an answer, a draw and an analysis summary, and soon this set of 2003 version of the sulfuric acid low-temperature roasting and decomposition process in Zhong Bai's memory is on the paper.

Looking at the six sheets of A4 paper that had been smeared with various formulas, charts, and data, Xu Guangxian was now a different person, and the doubts on his face had long been swept away, replaced by excitement.

It was the excitement of seeking new knowledge and understanding its meaning, and for a person who didn't understand science, they even felt a little bored - why did the old man giggle at a few scribbled pieces of paper?

But Zhong Bai deeply understands what kind of excitement it is like!

In his previous life, he had also solved the problem many times, whether in the unit, the laboratory or at home, and even once at four o'clock in the middle of the night, after solving a formula, he immediately called the deputy leader of his subject, and the two of them went out in clothes like crazy people, and happily ran to the front gate of the capital to drink beer!

After the discussion, Xu Guangxian was already fully convinced that Zhong Bai's plan could indeed achieve the predetermined goal!

However, after all, Zhong Bai said that this is the research result of a European laboratory, and if it is directly used, it not only does not conform to Xu Guangxian's consistent code of conduct, but also lacks convincing.

After all, if any theoretical solution is to be used in practice, it must be proved to be true and effective by experiments, otherwise, who would dare to let it go immediately?

"We need to immediately purchase a set of experimental equipment to carry out the experiment." Xu Guangxian touched his beard, frowned, and said: "But the funds for our training course are limited, if we temporarily apply for funding from Jingcheng University, we have to go back, and I don't know how long the transportation time is when I buy it from abroad, this is ......."

"Don't worry, Academician Xu." Zhong Bai smiled and said, "These experimental equipment are not complicated, we can buy them in China." In addition, if I have trouble applying for funding, I can find a company to sponsor it. ”

"You said to let Ningyuan Rare Earth Metallurgical Plant sponsor it? No, no, no, how could this kind of experiment make Lao Zhou pay for it? His factory has been losing money......" As soon as he heard Zhong Bai's suggestion, Xu Guangxian immediately shook his head like a rattle.

"No, it's looking for a domestic group that is also interested in entering the rare earth industry, and I know their CEO very well." The corners of Zhong Bai's mouth rose slightly, and he spit out a name that was too familiar to be more familiar: "Baifeng Group, I don't know if you've heard of it?" ”
