The Military-industrial Scientific Research System of the Academic Master Chapter 851

Chapter 851 Beijing Electron Microscopy Center

The news in the newspaper is just an episode after all.

Chang Haonan can't think of a solution for the time being, but that's just one aspect.

Another point is that as a middle- and senior-level manager within the Science and Technology Commission system, it is indeed difficult for him to rashly interfere in issues in the agricultural field.

And in the final analysis, agriculture can be simply summarized as land + seeds + fertilizer.

If these three basic elements cannot be resolved, the room for maneuver at the policy level will ultimately be limited.

The exchange between Chang Haonan and Tang Lintian just now was more like a standard chat session for middle-aged men than a serious discussion.

So after a cup of tea bottomed out, the two of them quickly got back to the topic.

“By the way, Professor Chang, you just said that you came to me this time about the new laboratory?”

Tang Lintian asked as he picked up the teapot and added water to the cup.

"yes."

Chang Haonan nodded:

“I should have graduated around this time last year, so it's been a year. What's the situation there now?”

The groundbreaking of the new location of Torch Laboratory was basically synchronized with his joining the company. In fact, to put it bluntly, the dumplings were made specifically for this dish of vinegar.

Theoretically, the speaker should be Chang Haonan himself.

But after all, that place is near Shahe, and it will be considered a suburb of Beijing more than 20 years later. Even the fifth ring road has not been repaired these days, let alone.

Especially for Chang Haonan, traveling now involves a security issue.

So he only went there once not long after he started working.

The entire construction process is supervised and managed by Beijing Hang University.

“The main building No. 1 has been capped, and only some internal facilities have not been installed yet.”

Tang Lintian must have followed up on matters related to Chang Haonan personally, so there is no need to ask anyone else:

“No. 2 and No. 3 Laboratory Buildings... I had just reached the second floor when I went there last week. I estimate that I will have to wait until the end of the year no matter how soon.”

“The living facilities such as dormitories and canteens have been completed, but if you really want to live in it... I still recommend waiting, at least after summer. I went in and took a look, and the smell is still a bit strong.”

The new laboratory has planned a total of three working buildings connected by covered bridges, all with four floors above ground and two floors underground.

Originally, according to Tang Lintian's idea, he planned to refer to some foreign scientific research institutions to make the building appearance more sci-fi.

It can also match the purpose of Torch Lab's “future-oriented” purpose.

But later on, in order to meet the deadline, I gave up.

“Everything else is easy to talk about. Are the water and electricity connected?”

Chang Haonan goes straight to the point:

“I have an important research project on hand right now, so I plan to purchase some large-scale experimental equipment in advance. We definitely don't have room to put it at the school headquarters, and it will be inconvenient to relocate it later. Can it be placed directly in Changping?”

“Important research?”

Tang Lintian's eyes immediately lit up.

The person immediately sat upright.

According to his experience, if even Chang Haonan says something is important, it must be really important.

“What specific equipment is needed?”

At the same time, Tang Lintian has already begun to think about how much of the school's funds can be used flexibly this year.

And if you complain to your superiors that you are poor again, how much extra money can you make—

Funding applications with Chang Haonan's name are generally relatively easy to pass.

In fact, at the beginning, some people felt dissatisfied.

But soon, this sound disappeared.

After all, the rate of return on investment shown by Chang Haonan is simply outrageous.

Basically, progress is made in one year, results are produced in two years, and impact is seen in three years.

No matter how narrow-minded the leaders of the funding department are, they will not worry about money when they don't have to worry about using the funds they sign to make wedding dresses for others.

So now that I have this opportunity, I must take a good look at the Natural Science Foundation of China.

Chang Haonan, who was opposite him, of course didn't know that Tang Lintian had already begun to think about how to write a report asking for money. He just raised his head slightly and thought for a while, and then answered with his fingers:

"Brand-new supercomputer, high-power variable-band pulse laser, scanning galvanometer, carbon fiber automatic laying machine... Then it is best to have a complete electron microscope center, uh... this may be a bit more expensive, you can also buy one first An ordinary transmission electron microscope and a scanning electron microscope with high vacuum mode. The rest can be added later, but the space must be reserved first, so it will be placed on the second underground floor of the main building..."

Even though Tang Lintian had been mentally prepared in advance, he still felt a little nervous when he heard this sentence, which was the same as the name of the dish.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ification

Until Chang Haonan finished speaking, he had not yet recovered.

“Principal Tang.”

The former said to himself that Old Tang's lung capacity was quite serious, and at the same time he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the other person:

“If you continue like this, you will be responsible for the global warming...”

Tang Lintian was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the meaning of Chang Haonan's words.

“Ahem—”

He coughed twice in embarrassment:

“A lot of the equipment here...has to be imported, right?”

“That's true.”

Chang Haonan nodded:

“At least electron microscopes can only be imported for now.”

Although he has driven the development of many industries in China in recent years, he still has to do it step by step.

Especially in some areas that are originally particularly weak, accumulation still needs to be made.

It doesn't exist if you take out an electron microscope directly from your pocket.

Fortunately, thanks to the relationship between China and the EU, and of course more importantly, the two sides are becoming more and more deeply bound in some industries and technologies. China is subject to much fewer restrictions in the field of high-end instruments and equipment than in previous generations.

It's just the money.

It will definitely still cost money.

“Then just what you mentioned is equivalent to 100 million in local currency, so I'm afraid it's unstoppable..."

Tang Lintian feels a bit toothache.

In 2000, the entire Beijing Airlines' on-campus scientific research funding totaled nearly 500 million yuan.

This is already a figure that has doubled from 1999.

Chang Haonan just bought a wave of equipment. He didn't even build the entire laboratory, but only worked on nearly a quarter of it...

Even if he is the principal, this board is not easy to shoot.

Scientific research is like this. Front-line technical personnel only need to devote themselves to the project and concentrate on research, but the back-line personnel have many things to consider... (bushi)

Chang Haonan, after all, had experienced the suffering of funding applications in his previous life, so he could naturally understand Tang Lintian's difficulty:

“Such large-scale equipment is basically priced on a one-case basis, so the specific cost depends on the brand, model and negotiation situation. If we give a rough estimate, the complete set of equipment may indeed cost around 120 million.”

This time, before Tang Lintian could stop his heart and lungs, he added another sentence:

“However, we are a joint laboratory after all, so our Torch Group will also bear part of the costs.”

Tang Lintian breathed a sigh of relief.

But not much.

“In addition, this electron microscopy center can not only produce scientific research results, but can also bring some economic benefits to the school...and of course our laboratory..."

Chang Haonan continues to add more money:

“For example, if you perform electron microscopy tests for people from other research institutions, charging hundreds or thousands of dollars at a time is not excessive, right?”

“If you think about it over a long period of time, you may even be able to earn back your investment in a few years…”

This is pure painting cake.

Electron microscopy is mainly used in the fields of biology and materials science.

Youdao said, "The electron microscope is good, and the paper is indispensable."

But now around 2000, these two disciplines have not yet exploded. Even if the electron microscopy center opens its doors to attract customers, it will not be as overwhelming as it will be 20 years later.

But this reason is mainly to let Tang Lintian convince himself—

Chang Haonan could see that the other party still wanted to invest the money.

Just need to bite the bullet.

Sure enough, after looking down at the tea in silence for a while, Tang Lintian raised his head again:

“My impression is that at the beginning of this year, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Finance, the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission and the Academy of Sciences wanted to establish a national-level innovative high-end basic scientific research platform.”

“If you can get this project and you are willing to co-sign with these units... the money problem will not be difficult to solve.”
