Chapter 96: Bright Flowers

"This ...... Member Sun, I am also to blame for not doing a good job of this matter and not carefully checking the application documents submitted. ”

Just when Yu Fei almost couldn't help but get up and argue, the dean, who had just been sitting next to him and hadn't opened his mouth, saw his excitement and hurriedly opened his mouth:

"But what Associate Professor Yu said just now is not unreasonable, no one has studied it, which means that we have originality."

"If we can allocate a limited amount of funds for more detailed preliminary demonstration, I think we will definitely be able to come up with more accurate and consistent results."

Seeing the dean's words, Sun Xianmin's expression softened slightly, and even the atmosphere in the entire conference room was not as tense as it was just now.

Ling Na next to her opened her mouth again:

"Dean Ji, you know that the Science and Technology Commission has a complete set of procedures for the establishment and funding of university teachers, and we can understand the psychology of young teachers who are not afraid of heaven and earth, but scientific research funding is limited after all, in this case, we can only give priority to those research topics that have been verified and have less risk."

Obviously, although the person in charge of singing red face has a much better attitude than Sun Xianmin, he has no intention of relenting in this matter.

"It was clearly an opportunity to overtake in a corner." Yu Fei was obviously still unwilling, ready to continue struggling, and his tone was also full of pain:

"You keep saying that you pay attention to the direction of the developed countries, but there are so many ways to increase the compressor boost ratio, what are the developed countries studying? It is to increase the speed of the blade tip, increase the angle of the blade, and modify the geometry! ”

"They are at least 20 to 30 years ahead of us in the basic field of air flow inside the blade grid, not to mention the blade materials and manufacturing processes, if we keep following the steps of others, how can we close the gap with them?"

"Associate Professor Yu, catching up with the British and the United States to release satellites is no longer feasible in this era."

Sun Xianmin leaned back in his chair and tapped the table lightly with the pen in his hand:

"Our entire department receives hundreds of project applications every month, and the content of each one is similar to what you said, saying that we can catch up with the international advanced level, but we can't just approve millions of scientific research funds just because of these, and no one can assume this responsibility."

“……”

Yu Fei's brain was hot, and he almost blurted out: "Take responsibility? If you're afraid of taking responsibility, it's safest to do nothing! ”

But the last shred of reason allowed him to control himself, and only opened his mouth.

Although there were still a thousand words in my head, I didn't continue to say them after all.

Obviously, what both sides are thinking about is not at all on the same channel.

He is talking about the realization of technological prospects, and the other party is concerned about the implementation of specific responsibilities.

It doesn't matter right or wrong.

There is no point in continuing to dwell on it.

No one can convince anyone.

As a result, the approval and defense ended hastily in a slightly embarrassing atmosphere.

Sun Xianmin and Ling Na even refused Dean Ji's request to stay with them for dinner.

……

"Alas......"

After sending the two people away, Yu Fei sat down on the sofa in the dean's office with some loss.

He is a relatively pure scientific researcher.

It's a terrible feeling that you've already grasped a thread from a thousand things, but you can't continue for non-technical reasons, and you see that the opportunity might slip through your hands.

What's more, Yu Fei couldn't accept the thinking concept of the two people just now.

Scientific research itself should be a process of continuous trial and error, looking for a way out in the face of repeated encounters.

Failure in itself is value for science.

If you simply do not approve funds and projects because you are afraid of failure, it is tantamount to choking on food.

On the other side of the office, Dean Ji sat behind his desk.

Looking at Yu Fei like a deflated ball, he raised his head and thought for a moment, as if he was struggling with what to decide.

Finally, a few minutes later, he turned his gaze back to Yu Fei on the sofa:

"Teacher Yu, in fact, the concerns of those two people just now are not unreasonable."

"There are some things that you may not know, but at the beginning of this year, the Science and Technology Commission sent people to conduct an inspection of the completion of the project in several schools directly under it."

"Project verification?" Yu Fei raised his head: "Isn't it every year, do you want to write a year-end summary report?" ”

"Of course not." Dean Ji shook his head: "The year-end summary report, or even the final report, you and I know how much water can be poured into it, and the above is naturally clear." ”

"So at the beginning of the year, a team of experts was sent to each school for verification through random inspections."

Yu Fei had not undertaken the longitudinal project issued by the Commission of Science and Technology before, so he naturally knew nothing about it, but even from Dean Ji's tone, he could guess a general situation:

"The result...... Not optimistic? ”

"It's not optimistic, it's just a mess...... Dean Ji picked up his cup and took a sip of water, hiding his expression well:

"It's too specific for me to say, but in short, there are a lot of people who are responsible for the previous project review and appraisal, like the two who just came, who were newly hired later."

"This ......"

Thinking about it like this, although Yu Fei still felt very unhappy, at least he felt that the behavior of the two people just now was not so illogical.

But from another point of view, I am afraid that for a long time to come, the examination and approval of the project of the Science and Technology Commission system will become extremely strict.

He also knew that his project application was indeed not very perfect in terms of feasibility demonstration.

And if you want to make groundbreaking results, you can't do it.

Of course, in the final analysis, there is still a lack of funds.

"That's it...... Completely hopeless? ”

Yu Fei's voice was dry, and even his voice became a lot sharper when he said it.

Although it was a question sentence, he had lost all hope, so his voice was as low as if he was talking to himself, and as he spoke, he stood up in a daze and prepared to leave the office.

"It doesn't have to be ......"

The three words pulled Yu Fei's body back to the sofa.

"I've also read your project application, and although the data is a little rougher, it's ...... There is indeed a prospect. ”

"It just so happens that I have an old fellow, one of his students has recently been working on computational fluid dynamics analysis, and it is said that the results of the calculations are very credible, if you are willing to cooperate, I can help you contact them."

"You know, the experiment in the field of aviation power takes a long time and costs a lot, and the computer simulation methods over there, even if they can't reach their verbal accuracy, at least the cycle is short and doesn't cost anything, and you can improve your experimental data."

Hearing this, Yu Fei's eyes lit up.

"Of course no problem!"
