Chapter Ninety-One: What Do You Want Rare Earths!
After saying a few words, Tian Jitong came again, opened the door of the laboratory, and said, "Come in, Mr. Hu has said this." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Thank you, Senior Brother Tian. Chu Hao said with a smile, raised his legs and walked towards the laboratory.
As soon as he walked to Tian Jitong's side, Tian Jitong suddenly said, "You are the son of Dean Liu." ”
"Yes, what's wrong, Senior Brother Tian?"
"It's nothing, it's just a little envious of your good life, I was only qualified to come in this laboratory when I was a junior in college, and you can come in now as a junior in high school, which can't help but sigh. Tian Jitong said with some embarrassment.
When he was in his junior year, he stood out from many classmates and was selected by Professor Hu to come to the materials room to help, which was already a matter of envy to many students, but he didn't expect Chu Hao to come in and do experiments in his third year of high school, how could he not sigh.
Hearing this, Chu Hao's brows furrowed slightly, and he immediately let go again, he heard a little sour taste from Tian Jitong's words, and even heard a little sarcasm, he was going to fight back, but after thinking about it, he was also telling the truth, otherwise there was an old mother, and it was indeed impossible for him to enter this laboratory now.
But this does not mean that if he is not there for his mother, he will not be able to enter the materials laboratory, at most it is possible to enter the materials laboratory of Shangda, Shanda, or Dongda, or Southern University of Technology.
With the knowledge he has now, as well as his understanding of materials science in his previous life, he can win the favor of many research institutions by casually publishing a paper, and if he wants to do experiments, there will be no place to do it, but it will be more troublesome and the sequelae will be greater.
Seeing that Chu Hao didn't speak, knowing that he was going through the back door, his heart was weak, Tian Jitong twitched the corner of his mouth, sneered, and didn't speak again.
He had heard of the son of Dean Liu, who graduated with a doctorate in his twenties, went to the University of London as a visiting scholar for several years, published many papers, and was regarded as the mainstay of the entire Institute of Physics, a representative of young scientists.
It's a pity that his son is not very successful, it seems that even Luozhou No. 1 High School entered through the back door, and I don't know if he can be admitted to university in the future, but he didn't expect to come here, how can he not sigh and not feel sour.
But so what, he has studied for a bachelor's degree, master's and doctorate, and the future is like a smooth road, and Chu Hao's grades are average, and even being admitted to university is a luxury, after twenty or thirty years, it may not take so long, and he and this kid who went through the back door, I am afraid that there is a gap between heaven and earth.
Tian Jitong took Chu Hao to an office, took out a form and handed it to Chu Hao, "You fill in the application form for the use of this laboratory." ”
Chu Hao nodded, sat down, and filled it out, he didn't know how many times he had seen this form, and he had to fill it out for experiments, and he had to write the time, applicant, project, how many tests, and the experimental consumables he had applied for.
"Are you interested in materials science?" Tian Jitong said suddenly.
"Hmm. Chu Hao nodded.
Although the 21st century is the century of materials, materials science is not easy to learn, and the salary is not high, the most common material people are to go to the factory as a craft, and the old workers soak in the workshop, and even in the factory, they prefer to recruit machinery, I know that there are many classmates, have changed careers to do something else, how do you think to learn this. Tian Jitong asked playfully.
Hearing this, Chu Hao frowned slightly, generally speaking, the materials department began to be divided in the third year, on one side is the engineering class, which is what Tian Jitong said just now, the casting and welding molds are probably of this type, and they are more inclined to machining, after all, the materials of many schools are actually as "mechanical second department" (or similar) in the early stage.
Looking for a job, are some steel mills, heavy industry machinery enterprises, what go to cement factories, porcelain factories are also a lot, and most of the time, you need to go to the workshop, belongs to the kind of hard, and can not make any money, promotion and salary increase is hopeless, it is indeed more miserable.
But the second way is scientific research, that's amazing, Chu Hao remembered that the youngest academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in his previous life, the one who became an academician at the age of 38, is materials science.
The development cost of new materials is relatively high, and all kinds of cutting-edge instruments and equipment are often tens of millions, and the investment is tens of millions, hundreds of millions. In the previous life, the composite materials on the large aircraft developed by Huaxia accounted for no more than 20%, and most of them were not key components, but the laboratory of the composite materials part of the large aircraft alone made Z-Pin more than 10 million yuan a year, which is just a point of composite material reinforcement.
If it comes to the whole metal, I don't know where the R&D expenses will be.
This is also the reason why Chu Hao can do high-energy physics obviously, but theoretical physics does not do it, because there is a lot of money involved.
For example, Stephen Hawking can move with three fingers, but when he throws out a theory, not only the academic world, but the whole world will focus on him, which is difficult to compare with other physics disciplines.
But when it comes to scientific research funding, he really can't compare to those materials scientists who are far less famous than him.
After all, what black hole, Hawking theory or something, is too far away from modern society, and any interview for new materials involves hundreds of billions, or even trillions, of industries.
After all, materials, information, and energy are the three pillars that support a country.
Of course, new materials are not so easy to research, and there are many examples of huge investment and no output.
"It's nothing, it's just interest. ”
Chu Hao smiled and handed the completed form to Tian Jitong.
Tian Jitong took the watch, glanced at it casually, and suddenly said with wide eyes: "Titanium, lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, do you want these!"
Needless to say, titanium is an important structural metal developed in the 50s of the 20th century, and titanium alloy is widely used in various fields because of its high strength, good corrosion resistance and high heat resistance. Many countries in the world have recognized the importance of titanium alloy materials, and have successively researched and developed them, and have been put into practical application.
The remaining metals are rare earths with the reputation of industrial vitamins, which are extremely important strategic resources.
"Experimental. Chu Hao said with a smile.
"What experiments do you do, you actually need to use these, these things, not to mention you as a high school student, even me, even Mr. Hu, it is difficult to use these rare metals for experiments. Tian Jitong finally couldn't help it and said sarcastically.
