Material Empire

"Secretary Lu, Secretary Qin, this way please."

Qian Congrong, Deputy Director of the Chemical Engineering Department of Pujiang Jiaotong University, greeted Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin politely, and walked into the conference room of the Chemical Engineering Department. In the noisy conference room, there were more than a dozen people of different ages and costumes. The common feature of them was that most of them wore glasses, most of them were thin, and most of them had bald hair. According to Qian Congrong, these dozen or so are experts in polymer research in the Department of Chemical Engineering, and some of them are quite well-known.

"Professor Wang can't attend?" Qin Hai glanced at the list that Qian calmly handed him, and asked casually. The professor Wang he mentioned was the only one he remembered from the Department of Chemical Engineering of Pujiao. He may have seen the names of some of the people on the list, but he knew that they were not top scholars.

Qian Congrong shook his head and said, "Professor Wang went to the capital for a meeting. In addition, he has several projects delivered by the National Defense Industry Office at hand. I'm afraid he doesn't have time to participate in the work of the Localization Office."

"Oh, that's a pity." Qin Hai said lightly.

It has been two weeks since Qin Hai came to work in the localization office. After learning about the actual situation and the problems faced by the localization office, Qin Hai suggested to Yang Xinyu that he first set up a team of experts in materials science research, as a The support of this work, so that all decisions of the material localization working group are based on scientific basis.

Qin Hai himself is an expert in materials science, but he is not omnipotent after all. His advantage lies in his full understanding of the development trend of materials technology, and his foresight of some new theories and methods that have not yet appeared. In specific technical fields, he still needs the support of scholars who have been engaged in research in this field for a long time. Just like in the process of localization of auto parts at Qingfeng Factory, Qin Hai was able to put forward principled ideas for some technologies, but the final solution had to be solved by Li Linguang and other teachers and students of the College of Engineering through a lot of calculations and experiments. accomplish.

Yang Xinyu agreed to Qin Hai's suggestion and instructed him and Lu Xiaolin to go to various universities and scientific research institutes in Pujiang to find experts. For this purpose, the Pujiang Municipal Government greeted all universities and scientific research institutes, instructing them to fully cooperate with the work of the localization office and send the strongest team of experts to provide services for the localization office.

Greetings are made, but specific to each unit, the response to this greeting is different. Those colleges and universities directly under Pujiang City are better. Their original status is relatively low, and such an opportunity is worth cherishing, so they are very enthusiastic and cooperative with Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin's visit. However, those institutions affiliated to the State Education Commission or various ministries and commissions are different. They do not lack opportunities. In their eyes, the Pusang Localization Office is nothing more than that, so they often deceive Qin and Lu.

The same is true for the Department of Chemical Engineering of Pujiang Jiaotong University. After being notified by the Localization Office, the Department Office posted a notice in the corridor, asking teachers who are engaged in polymers and related fields to attend the meeting at that time. But such an announcement itself has no binding force, and college teachers are the most unrestrained group in the world, so when Qin Hai and the others arrive, there will be only four or five people attending the meeting, very few. Fallen, very ugly.

Qian Congrong, the deputy head of the department who was in charge of receiving Qin Hai and his party, saw that the situation was not good, and while holding Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin in his office, he secretly ordered the academic affairs secretary to go to various offices to recruit people to attend the meeting. After more than ten minutes of delay, a dozen people were gathered together, which seemed to be a bit large.

"Teachers, let me introduce to you. This is Comrade Lu Xiaolin, the chief secretary of the Pusang Automobile Localization Office, and this is Comrade Qin Hai, the working secretary. Welcome."

Qian Congrong brought Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin to the seats at the top of the conference table and then introduced them to everyone.

All the teachers applauded a few times, not so much to welcome Qin Hai and the others, but rather to save face for Qian calmly. Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin were already used to this kind of situation. Qin Hai raised his hand and waved it to everyone, cleared his throat, and said:

"Thank you all teachers for taking time out of their busy schedules to participate in this seminar. Let me introduce the relevant situation to you. We are currently facing a series of material technical problems in the localization of Pusang Automobile. Come here today, I want to ask you for ideas on the research and development of several polymer materials, and I will simply explain the performance requirements of these materials to you..."

Lu Xiaolin cooperated with Qin Hai to send the printed materials to the teachers. The teachers took the materials, flipped through them lazily, and listened to Qin Hai's introduction at the same time.

"Okay, this is the main question we are asking everyone for advice today. In the next time, teachers are welcome to speak freely." Qin Hai said.

The teachers exchanged glances with each other, with a somewhat teasing look on their faces. The several polymer materials mentioned in the data are not considered high-end in theory. There are already mature products abroad, and they can also be synthesized in laboratories in China, but the technical problems of industrial production have not yet been solved.

The research on these materials is a typical tasteless project for college teachers. On the one hand, it is difficult to gnaw it down, and on the other hand, there is no meat to be found after gnawing it down. Think about it, this is already something that people can produce abroad, do you still expect to use it to publish papers?

Everyone had the same idea, so no one said anything. Qian calmly waited for a few minutes, and seeing that no one came out to smooth things over, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so he pointed to a teacher with whom he had a good relationship on weekdays, and shouted: "Old Yuan, why don't you talk about it?" Bar."

The teacher named Lao Yuan saw that Qian calmly ordered his name, so he couldn't pretend to be dumb anymore. He coughed, smiled again, and said:

"Since Laoqian has named my name, let me just say a few words to attract jade. Just now Secretary Qin mentioned the issue of polymer materials, so let me talk about polymers. Polymers, as the name suggests, are those with special relative molecular weights. Large compounds are composed of hundreds of thousands of atoms covalently bonded to each other, and their molecular chains are connected by many simple structural units, generally with a relative molecular mass of more than 10,000..."

When he said this, he glanced at Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin with his eyes, and found that the two were taking notes seriously, and he couldn't help feeling proud. The things he said were all the contents of the introductory course for undergraduates. He deliberately said such a simple concept on this occasion, obviously to bully Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin for not understanding technology.

He didn't know that what Lu Xiaolin and Qin Hai recorded were not the superficial concepts he mentioned at all, but the evaluation of the personnel's ability and character. Lao Yuan's attitude was immediately given a bad review by Qin Hai: No matter how knowledgeable you are, if you play this kind of trick, your character will be inferior.

After Lao Yuan finished speaking, a teacher surnamed Zhang picked it up again. Contrary to Lao Yuan, he didn't talk about basic concepts, but rushed to talk about the most advanced knowledge. English words jumped out one by one, what? Nouns such as benzene, naphthalene, ester, ether, and alkene are spoken like the names of dishes.

Lu Xiaolin secretly asked Qin Hai in a low voice, "Xiao Qin, can you understand what he said?"

Qin Hai nodded slightly, and said in a low voice, "I understand...but what he said is nonsense."

"Oh..." Lu Xiaolin felt at ease, and at the same time secretly praised Yang Xinyu for being wise, and found a "bai xiaosheng" like Qin Hai to partner with her.

After the two teachers Yuan and Zhang, other teachers also expressed some opinions in turn. Some of them just said some nonsense about the importance of polymer chemistry purely for the sake of the situation; Zao Wuzao has the mentality of fighting three poles, loudly calling out the gap between domestic polymer research and foreign countries, hoping that Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin can report to the superiors, allocate more funds to the school, or provide more topics.

As for the solution that Qin Hai and the others wanted to hear, the participating teachers rarely mentioned it. When they talked about it, they often used sensational words such as "world problems" and "huge gap". problems that they cannot solve.

"Oh, this is the result again." Lu Xiaolin sighed to Qin Hai in an inaudible voice after crossing out the last name in the notebook.

Qin Hai smiled, did not speak, but drew a smiling face on the notebook, expressing that he had the same feeling as Lu Xiaolin.

Seeing that everyone finished speaking, Qian Congrong turned his face and said to Qin Hai and Lu Xiaolin: "Secretary Lu, Secretary Qin, everyone's opinions are just like this for the time being. Let's see if there is any help for your work. Woolen cloth?"

"Well, it still inspires us a bit." Qin Hai said politely. He is not that kind of kid, although there is some disappointment or even resentment in his heart, but it will not be clearly expressed on his face. This kind of result is also what he expected in advance. In the final analysis, this is still a mechanism problem. The collaboration channels such as industry, university and research have not been opened smoothly. Even if the teachers are wise, they are not interested in such unnecessary contributions.

"Oh, just some inspiration?"

What Qin Hai didn't expect was that his polite words actually aroused the dissatisfaction of the participants. The old Yuan who spoke first asked a question in a strange voice, and immediately changed Qin Hai's polite words.

The teacher surnamed Zhang was sitting with Lao Yuan, and just now he was muttering about Qin Hai and Qin Hai with Lao Yuan, saying that these two are just two worthless snacks, and they actually wasted so much of everyone's time. Hearing Lao Yuan's opening, he also interjected, saying, "Both leaders, I don't know if what I just said is valuable or not. We've been talking for a long time. If not, please ask the two leaders to comment. It is convenient for us to understand the needs of the practice department."

As soon as the two of them spoke, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became delicate.
