the next day.
Thanks to the appearance of Wang Donglai, the investigation of the cause of the rocket engine explosion went smoothly and quickly.
At one o'clock at noon, the cause of the explosion had been completely determined.
There was a quality problem with the liquid oxygen tank screw. During the experiment, it detached, causing the rocket engine to automatically shut down. Then a chain reaction occurred, causing the rocket engine to explode.
The reason why this judgment was made was not only because of the judgment given by Wang Donglai, but also because Han Ming led the base staff to test everything through light testing and other methods according to the previous testing procedures.
It was only because Wang Donglai pointed out the problem with the screws of the liquid oxygen tank that the results were so fast through planned and focused testing.
Otherwise, according to the previous process, every component needs to be inspected strictly, even several times.
From this we can see how important Wang Donglai’s set of mathematical models and formulas is, and it saves so much time.
No one thought that the problem would be here.
Even if the most obvious conclusion is placed in front of everyone, many people find it difficult to believe it.
However, after checking other parts from the same batch and discovering the same problem, everyone had no choice but to believe it even if they didn't want to believe it.
Now that the cause of the explosion has been found, Han Ming did not delay and immediately wrote down the incident in detail and reported it.
In the report, Han Ming emphatically mentioned Wang Donglai's role in the investigation of the rocket engine explosion problem.
Especially the set of mathematical models and formulas produced by Wang Donglai. In Han Ming's report, this set of mathematical models and formulas is no less important than the rocket engine.
The other side.
Wang Donglai is also the youngest in the base. Coupled with his status as an academician and a billionaire, Wang Donglai immediately became the center of everyone's conversation.
We are all of the same age, so getting along is easy.
In just one morning, Wang Donglai has already been recognized by everyone.
The cause of the rocket engine explosion has been determined, and there is not much to do for the time being.
So, everyone relaxed and started chatting.
"I originally thought I would be busy for a few days, but I didn't expect it to be so fast this time!"
"Yes, but compared to that kind of nervous busyness, I still hope that it will be like this in the future, and the more I If I had known the cause of the explosion earlier, I would have been able to sleep better. "
"I once went through a review of the cause of the explosion, which was called busy. I didn't sleep well for a whole month. I've been reviewing the test since I saw it, and I haven't stopped. After one month, it's enough I lost five pounds.”
“Are all math students so good? We used to have to work on it for at least a week, but it was solved by a mathematical model and a few linear formulas.”
“It’s not about being good at mathematics, but being good about people. It doesn’t matter who comes here this time. He is the youngest academician in our country. I estimate that this age record will last at least ten years. It will not be broken up.”
"Comparing people with each other is so annoying. At our age, the better ones are only in the first year of graduate school, and the normal ones are still in the fourth year of college, but they have already become academicians."
"To be honest, I Now I am very curious, I especially want to know what that mathematical model is, just like a cat scratching its itch in my heart."
"By the way, I also heard the news that Academician Wang created it. Galaxy Technology, which I run, has established a space and rocket company and is recruiting people from major research institutes. As long as you join the company, your salary will be at least three times what it was when you were at the institute."
"Hiss...really. Fake? "
"It must be true. I heard that many people have received invitations from Galaxy Technology, and some have declined, but many have chosen to join. "
"Three times the salary, plus Galaxy Technology's various benefits, such conditions are great, but can Galaxy Technology persist? Do private companies really have the ability to develop space rockets?" < br>
"That's right. The salary is high now, but if you run out of money, you will still have to go bankrupt and lose the stability of your job."
Most of them are young people, so it is very easy to chat. The conversation soon came to this.
When it was mentioned that wages should at least triple, many people’s eyes lit up.
While everyone was chatting, Wang Donglai happened to pass by.
At this time, a bold base staff member stood up and asked Wang Donglai: "Academician Wang, I heard that Galaxy Technology is also developing aerospace rockets. Is this true?"
Wang Donglai's footsteps After a pause, he affirmatively said with a smile on his face: "It's true. . ”
“Galaxy Technology is based on technology, so it is very interested in the research and development of high-precision technologies. It has already carried out research and development work on semiconductors, biomedicine, energy materials and aerospace rockets. ”< br>
Get Wang Donglai After being affirmed, someone immediately asked: "Academician Wang, I heard that as long as you join Galaxy Technology, your minimum salary can be tripled. Is this true?"
Wang Donglai did not hesitate, and immediately He nodded and admitted, saying: "It's true, in my opinion Talent is the most precious resource, and money is meaningful only when it is circulated. For R&D technicians, I think salary is the best way to evaluate them. If you have made many achievements and made great contributions, then your salary must be To be reflected.”
As Wang Donglai said these words, the eyes of everyone present suddenly lit up.
In this world, few people dare to say that they don’t love money.
Anyone who would say this is either a fool, or they have too much money to spend, and they say this deliberately to show off.
Aerospace rocketry is indeed a very high-level job, but it does not mean that everyone’s salary is high.
Many people choose this line of work. It is undeniable that there is a love factor, but more people still choose it because it is a job that guarantees a good harvest despite droughts and floods, has decent work, and has a certain social status.
However, after I came to work, it became a siege dilemma.
However, now that they suddenly heard that Wang Donglai was offering three times the minimum salary, many people felt an impulse in their hearts.
Wang Donglai also noticed this and felt bad.
The reason is very simple. He came here just for inspection and study, not to recruit people.
It would be a bit unsightly if his influence led to employee resignations at this base and research institute.
Thinking of this, Wang Donglai was ready to find a reason to leave.
This is exactly the time.
Han Ming walked over. I don’t know if Han Ming heard what he just said.
"Academician Wang, the cause of the rocket engine explosion has been found. I have also reported to the superiors. The work is done. Pack your things and we will leave soon!"
Hearing what Han Ming said, Wang Donglai nodded immediately.
Seeing this, someone originally wanted to ask again, but with Han Ming present, it was difficult to ask further, so they gave up. Wang Donglai, Han Ming and others didn't have much to pack, so they left the base without delaying for long.
On the way back.
Han Ming suddenly spoke up and asked Wang Donglai: "Academician Wang, is your company planning to establish a private aerospace rocket company in China similar to Bald Eagle's SpaceX?"
Wang Donglai After thinking for a while, I came out He said loudly: "It's not true!"
"Han Gong, you are an expert in this field. You should know the technological gap between us and the Bald Eagle. The rocket engine alone is far behind, let alone It’s other aspects.”
"SpaceX may not be much at the moment, but from a business perspective, it is definitely worth trying!"
"However, it is a pity that domestic capital and those large Internet companies are not willing to invest money at all. Here.”
Han Ming: “That’s why Academician Wang put so much effort into it. Come in, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to recoup the cost?"
Looking at Han Ming and the other people in the car who were listening, Wang Donglai said with a smile: "Not afraid!"
"Because other companies develop space rockets, they are likely to fail, but I am different!"
Han Ming asked: "Why is it different?"
Wang Donglai did not answer directly this time, but asked Han Ming a question, asking: "Han Ming, you said that our country develops industry and develops the economy. , and what are the reasons for such great progress in the high-tech field? ”
This question is very simple, and any student who has attended high school can answer a few points.
For example, it is a large domestic market with a population of more than one billion, rich in natural resources, large population base, abundant talents, etc.
Han Ming did not think too much and replied loudly: "There are many reasons, but the most important thing is that our country has carried out reform and opening up in a timely manner. The changes in policies have promoted the development of the domestic economy. The economy The development then led to other fields.”
"After all, the economic base determines the superstructure. Only through compulsory education and literacy can a large number of qualified workers in our country play a role in the industrialization era."
"As for the development of high-tech fields, I think it is Our country has a large population base , a large number of talents, coupled with dedication to the country, can catch up with the international level so quickly.”
“Of course, these are just the more important reasons”
Hear Han Ming. After saying this, Wang Donglai laughed and shook his head slightly.
“Han Gong, I don’t quite agree with what you said.”
"The reasons you mentioned are indeed correct, but they do not speak to the essence."
"Any agricultural country developing into an industrial country must go through a painful stage, that is, the stage of capital accumulation. "
"The West completed industrialization through colonial plunder, but even so, the sun never sets and the bald eagle also paid a huge price. The big price is, for example, child labor, for example, the severely polluted land environment."
"And here, it is the scissor gap between workers and farmers."
"I believe that many people are suffering from it. Everyone has heard about the advantages of our country, one of which is indispensable, that is, it has abundant demographic dividend resources.”
“What is demographic dividend?”
“This category does not only include migrant workers. Any field with a large number of employees can be called demographic dividend.”
“Our country’s products The price is low and the quality is pretty good, so the sales are good. Why is the price low? Because the cost is low. Why the cost is low? It’s because part of the cost is originally spent on workers and employees, but it is not used, so the cost is low. The cost is low."
"The same is true in the high-tech field. In a certain aspect, the cost of our country's high-tech fields is no less than that of foreign countries."
"Only. However, foreign costs are more reflected in capital costs, and our capital costs are not obvious, but if we compare the contributions of talents on both sides, the costs paid by our country are much higher than those abroad. "< br>
"I think Korean workers should have seen a lot of publicity reports, saying that someone has been working at his job for many years, and did not go to see him when he was sick. He insisted on sticking to the project, which resulted in pathological changes and the like."
" Talent, in my opinion, is the most important thing!”
“If you use the body of talent to represent it! I’m not willing to change the time it takes for a project to succeed!”
“We are influenced by traditional culture, and we are not doing well in this regard.”
“Rong! It’s about dedication, but it’s about treatment. This is something I don’t agree with.”
"Han workers ask themselves, do your abilities match the salary you get in the research institute?"
"Of course, the research institute has many other benefits and a sense of social honor. I also know about the sense of gain, accomplishment, etc.”
“When Han Gong reaches the status of chief researcher, I don’t know if his annual salary is 200,000 yuan. It should not be there. The standard of living is definitely above food and clothing, and this status brings a sense of accomplishment and honor. I believe it is no less than a salary of 200,000, or even more.”
“But, for young people. , they are different.”
“House prices and commodity prices are rising, and consumerism is rampant, but their wages are not much higher than the market.”
"But in the research institute, some people are very busy, and some people are extremely idle. Han Gong should not deny this, right?!"
"I have said so much not to expose shortcomings. , or what does it have for the domestic aerospace industry? Opinion."
"I'm just answering Han Gong's question just now. Galaxy Technology has made a lot of money. I can't spend it all in this life or the next life. Instead of putting this money in the bank, I would like to Use the money you earn to develop a "In addition to being a businessman, I am also a scholar. Between the two identities, I prefer the scholar. The identity of the businessman is just for the purpose." Just provide funds for my scientific research projects.”
“If I report that I want to follow the rocket development route like SpaceX in China, I will never get approval from the superiors because the cost is too high. , the risk is too high.”
"However, I use my own money to research projects that interest me. In this way, the superiors will not only not object, but will strongly support it."
"One more research direction, one more development route, But there is no actual capital cost. I think there is no reason for the above to object.”
“I want to see it too. , when private companies develop aerospace rocket research and development, can they pay more attention to talents and achieve results through market means? "
"Even if it fails, I think it is meaningful, but. I don’t think it will fail.”
As Wang Donglai said these words, the car suddenly became extremely quiet.
Both Han Ming and other researchers showed signs of thinking.
After a while, Han Ming sighed and said aloud: "Well, some situations are indeed as Academician Wang said, but most of them are good."
"Academician Wang , not to mention anything else, just because your company can invest in space rockets, it is already a win. It has surpassed most Internet companies in China.”
“As for the results, after what happened last night, I think that as long as Academician Wang is here, results will be inevitable sooner or later, and I will wait for Academician Wang to do well. News.”(End of this chapter)
