Chapter 784 The French... lost their temper
After determining the basic response ideas, the development work on the boil-off gas reliquefaction technology also began.
The ones responsible for this task are naturally Lei Zhixing and Liu Fangping.
This is also a relatively common way of running a large research group -
Chang Haonan, as the big boss, only provides basic ideas, as well as some key technologies and resources for non-core projects, and the specific implementation It is the responsibility of other researchers who are more familiar with the situation.
This ensures that the entire laboratory operates at a relatively high efficiency.
Otherwise, if Chang Haonan is asked to do whatever project comes his way, no matter how energetic he is, he will not be able to take care of it.
"Mr. Chang, after we return, we will contact the comrades in charge of docking at the Hudong factory and ask them to set up a horizontal topic, and then we will apply for it?"
Lei Zhixing follows the usual practice asked.
When he was studying for a Ph.D., he often followed Yan Yongnian in the project application process. Now that he has just changed schools, he is already familiar with it.
"Okay."
Chang Haonan nodded first, but then lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then continued to add:
"However, the opposite side is also a central enterprise that has just been restructured into a group for a few years. It is estimated that the efficiency of this kind of spending money will not be too high, and we cannot waste this time."
"In this case, I will allocate 30,000 yuan to you from the public funds of the laboratory. As project feasibility study and pre-research funds, the money will be loaned back after the project is officially declared."
He took out a stack of grant application forms from the drawer.
There is no online fund management system these days, so you can only rely on this traditional method if you want to make money.
Chang Haonan simply wrote the amount and purpose on it, signed his name in the lower right corner, and finally tore it off and put it on the table:
"Take this to Secretary Liu Just stamp it and submit it to the school for filing. "
It is basically impossible to borrow funds from different projects vertically, but the review of horizontal projects is much more relaxed. many.
What’s more, the investor is still Torch Group.
"This...pre-research funding?"
Lei Zhixing's pupils trembled a little when he saw Chang Haonan writing "30,000 yuan".
Thirty thousand yuan, in 1999, was almost equivalent to the entire cost of a small project.
According to the unspoken rules of the school, a portion of the hair should be taken away from the geese, which is even higher than the funding for many small projects.
Now it is just a feasibility study and preliminary research, and Chang Haonan signed it happily.
He even proposed it on his own initiative.
Obviously, the depth of resources in this laboratory is unfathomable.
After the brief excitement, Lei Zhixing took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then picked up the grant form from the table:
"Then Professor Chang, let's I’m going to do some work first. If nothing else happens, the specific feasibility analysis report should be available before the end of next month.”
Chang Haonan didn’t speak, he just put the pen back into the pen holder, then nodded and signaled. Both get busy.
Under normal circumstances, a feasibility analysis, even one that is very detailed and involves some preliminary experimental verification, does not require a particularly high cost.
Especially the reliquefaction of boil-off gas, the main consideration is the technical route of the reliquefaction process. It is impossible to study such a complex content as the strength of the hull in the early demonstration process.
So, the 30,000 yuan is actually a relatively sufficient amount.
And this was Chang Haonan’s deliberate move.
There is no doubt that Lei Zhixing and Liu Fangping are two people he wants to entrust with important responsibilities.
But everything must be done step by step.
Whether it is from the perspective of gradually increasing the weight to give them enough room to adapt, or from the perspective of testing whether the two are reliable enough, it is a good choice to first let them independently preside over a feasibility demonstration process.
On the other side, Lei Zhixing, who had just walked out of the office, took out the appropriation slip and stood at the stairs and read it over and over again.
“What are you doing?”
Liu Fangping, who had already gone down half a flight of stairs, turned back with doubts on his face:
"Nothing."
Lei Zhixing shook his head and followed his friend:
"I was just thinking that we didn't choose to stay in school at the beginning, but listened to Teacher Yan and came to Beijing. Hang Lai, this step should be the right one..."
Although at the school level, Qinghua is still a much better platform than Beijing Airlines.
But for their two little lecturers, the laboratory they are in and the boss they work with are the most important.
No matter how many resources the school has, they will be empty if they are not allocated to individuals.
Liu Fangping doesn’t talk much at ordinary times, but he definitely doesn’t have any difficulty in expressing himself. He’s just reluctant to speak in most cases:
“Of course, Professor Yan won’t trick us. Let’s talk about it before. When I was working on the die forging press, I had already been in contact with Mr. Chang, and he was definitely a person of high enough level..."
...
At the same time. France, Paris.
After lunch time, Serge Dassault and Charles Edelsteiner were walking on the path inside the group.
"Charlie, has the news that we are planning to cooperate with the Chinese been released?"
Dassault looked at a sycamore tree beside the road and asked suddenly.
“According to your request, the cooperation was negotiated under the name of a civilian project. Two days ago, I gave some inside information to a New York Times reporter through my acquaintances in the media. ”
Ed Steiner nodded and replied -
Actually, Wen Kangjian's previous worries were justified.
Sergey Dassault’s wishful thinking is indeed to try to make General Electric feel some sense of crisis by releasing a signal of cooperation with China, so as to restore the relationship between the two parties...
Ahem...
Cooperation.
In fact, according to his initial plan, he only needed to have some simple written exchanges with China, and there was no need to enter formal negotiations at all.
That's why he chose to use the loophole-filled method of a business jet cooperation project as a cover -
Because he had no intention of hiding it in the first place.
Dassault even wanted to do it with great fanfare and let the whole world know about it.
I just thought it was a bit too fake to do this, so I was a little more reserved.
But it was also reported by the media as soon as the two parties started to contact each other.
"So, what is the response from the United States? Has it expressed its intention to continue cooperation with Snecma?"
Dassault asked with a confident look.
But it turns out that the literature of spoiled wives is not necessary.
If you have no intention of actually flipping the table, don't threaten the other party by flipping the table.
After hearing his boss's question, Ed Steiner shook his head with a complex expression.
Dassault frowned upon hearing this.
But he obviously didn’t realize the seriousness of the matter:
“They refused?”
Ed Steiner shook his head again, and then said with a slightly bitter tone Opening:
"Actually... so far, we have not received any feedback, and the United States seems to have directly ignored the news..."
Dassault's expression froze on his face.
"How could..."
Ed Steiner did not answer.
The air fell silent for a moment.
Obviously, this is not a question with a possible answer.
For a moment, Serge Dassault felt that his mind was a little confused.
In his view, even if GE cannot directly change its mind, it can at least bring the other party back to the negotiating table.
Or at the very least, the latest F414 engine can also be made available for production Rafale.
Although Snecma will suffer some losses, the impact on Dassault will be minimized——
Re-matching the new engine is bound to take some time, but it will always allow the Rafale fighter jets to be delivered to the French army on time in name.
Go ahead of J-10 and EF2000.
But after all calculations, I didn’t expect that the other side of the Atlantic didn’t even pay attention to him.
This is rather stiff.
"Monsieur Dassault."
After the awkward atmosphere lasted for a while, Ed Steiner finally said:
“Actually, in order to prevent this from happening, I specifically asked Oliver Weili to maintain contact with the Chinese side. . ”
“So, it’s still too late to really go back and find the Chinese...”
