When Wang Hongtai, a young lecturer in the Department of Chemistry at Pujiang Jiaotong University, came out of the reinstallation of a small conference room, his mind was a little dizzy. The update is the fastest to recall everything that has happened these days, and he has a feeling of being sleepwalking.

The use of ruthenium catalyst to improve the synthetic ammonia process is a very popular topic.Wang Hongtai also accidentally discovered that the use of ruthenium to promote the new catalyst can greatly improve the efficiency of ammonia synthesis, which may lead to a great change in the synthetic ammonia process.With his academic status, it is certainly impossible to say what Wu Shican would have triggered a technological revolution, but this process can at least make a major change in the synthesis of ammonia technology, which he can imagine.

The birth of a new process, just the idea is not enough, but also need to carry out repeated experiments, and in the experiment to find new problems, put forward new solutions.In the new catalyst envisioned by Wang Hongtai, rutium is only one of the elements, and the determination of its proportions, as well as the selection of other elements, need to be studied.These studies can be started with theory, but eventually they must be tested experimentally, and it will cost money.

Wang Hongtai had applied to the leadership for research, but was unexpectedly rejected.The country is still very poor, scientific research investment is extremely limited, these limited investment to be allocated to the country's scientific research institutes and universities, and then to dismember adult head fees, infrastructure costs, equipment costs and so on.After years of political movement, all scientific research institutions are in ruins, scientific researchers to improve welfare, office buildings to be renovated and even new under the banner of experimental buildings, as well as staff dormitories, canteens, guest houses and so on, all from the scientific research funds.

After 70% and 80%, the remaining little scientific research funds must be used to ensure the key scientific research tasks delivered by the state, because if these tasks are not completed, the next phase of funding will be worrying.As for this kind of cutting-edge research such as Wang Hongtai's proposal, in the eyes of the leader, it is full of support and throwing money into the water.If Wang Hongtai is a well-known professor, the leader does not look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, it is estimated that he must also give a little money to fool.But Wang Hongtai is just a small lecturer, actually want to spend money to do experiments, is there a mistake ah!

Without any financial support, Wang Hongtai can only do theoretical research first, after all, this is a matter of no cost.A year or two down, Wang Hongtai accumulated a lot of theoretical research conclusions, only after experimental verification, can become a valuable result.Every time I look at some of the results occasionally reported in foreign academic journals, Wang Hongtai really sighed, if he tens of thousands of dollars of experimental funds, the discovery of these achievements will not let foreigners seize the fore.

At this time, a paper notice affixed to the wall of the chemical department office, which immediately wrote the information of the bidding of the National Equipment Industry Science and Technology Fund, and the first batch of bidding content was the big fertilizer equipment process.The leadership of the Department of Chemical Industry held an emergency conference for teachers in the whole department, calling on everyone to bid enthusiastically.It is said that everyone, in fact, the eyes of the head of the department, have been turning around the body of several great cow professors, and these big cow professors have also made a statement and said some of the "who else" rhetoric.

After the mobilization meeting, the whole department of teachers was abstinent.Teachers who are not enough have gathered around the big cattle, claiming that they are willing to give the big cattle a whip, even if it is to pick up horse manure in the back.The big cows are not idle, one by one to their old friends to call, ask the details of this round of bidding, to see if you can get a bigger project through what relationship, in the next few years to eat spicy spicy have fallen.

During this period, some people have also looked for Wang Hongtai, asked him if he is willing to join a big cow project team, although the ranking may be outside the top ten, but once the big cow can eat meat, he can at least smell a little meat.Wang Hongtai refused these kind invitations, not because of how tall he was, but because he did his own direction and the big cattle are not consistent, and the big cattle will not be willing to look at the new process of rutted catalyst he raised.If the road is not right, why should we go to this fun?

He spent a week in the library, wrote an application report, and devoted his years of accumulation to it.In the final calculation of the project budget, he almost counted the role of every penny to the extreme, which reported a figure of 80,000 yuan.He also knows that 80,000 yuan in the district is only enough to do some of the most basic experimental verification, and it is difficult to enter the forefront.However, it was possible to have $80,000, which was very satisfying to him, and he did not dare to expect more.

All teachers' application reports are submitted to the school after the chemical system is collected and submitted to the project bidding office in the re-installation office.When Wang Hongtai handed over his report to the department, Dong Hongying, the head of the department, wrinkled her beautiful eyebrows into a pimple, and asked, “Mr. Wang, what joke are you?”

Wang Hongtai was quite surprised and asked, “Director, why am I joking?”

Dong Hongying said: "This declaration is a key project issued by the National Economic Commission, our department's application is a respected professor as the host, you are a lecturer... When the National Economic Commission looks at us, people will think that we do not pay attention to this matter!" 」

“Is there such a request?”Wang Hongtai, he defended: "Director Dong, I have carefully seen the notice issued by the Commission, and there is no restriction on the title of the applicant."In addition, when the high director did the mobilization, it also said that regardless of the title of the job, the level of seniority and the depth of seniority can apply, I also echo the call in the department."

The senior director is making fun of you, and you can't hear it!

Dong Hongying despised Wang Hongtai in his heart, then changed a more conciliated expression and said: "Mr. Wang, although there is no such requirement in the notice of the state, but if the applicant's title is higher, the impression of the superior leader will be better?"We have several top professors in the industry, wouldn’t it be better if you asked them to apply for a single one?”

Wang Hongtai shook his head and said, “Director Dong, I have considered this as well.”However, Professor Wu, Professor Cheng and Professor Qu of our department have all applied for this topic, and it is not appropriate to be the head of another project.In addition, they are not particularly optimistic about my project.

Wang Hongtai said this is already more polite, he originally wanted to say that these big cow professors do not understand what he does.Among them, the big cow named Qu Shoulin, who stayed in the United States before liberation, had some fame in the circle, and when he first saw Wang Hongtai's application sent to the past, he directly came to a sentence: "What nail-catalyst, new and different!"

“That word is ruthened...” Wang Hongtai Ning corrected.

“It’s also new and worthless!”The old man waved his hand and threw Wang Hongtai out of his office.

To say, can not be blamed on these professors, chemical industry is a very large system, even the synthetic ammonia process, including hundreds of branches, a professor can not distinguish between "nail" and "ruthen", is not a big problem, but also does not damage its academic reputation.But it would be extremely inappropriate for such a professor to name and host this project on rutium catalysts, and people will think that you want to smash the field.

Dong Hongying finally accepted Wang Hongtai's application report, and after discussion by several leaders, he decided to hand over the report along with the reports submitted by other big cattle.There are three reasons for the department leaders to do this: first, in a number of professors mixed with a lecturer, can reflect the importance of all teachers in the Department of Chemistry on this matter, even ordinary lecturers have participated in it; second, the applications submitted by other professors are for the improvement of the existing process, which belongs to the application of the application of the study, Wang Hongtai this project is the only theoretical research, which is to fill the gap; third, according to general practice, a unit application of the project will be used to be used, which is not good.

After the application report was submitted, less than half a month later, the bidding office sent a notice to inform some of the applications to pass the first instance, requiring the project moderator to participate in the second-instance defense in Beijing to determine whether it can obtain funding.To the surprise of the whole department of chemical department leaders and teachers, Wang Hongtai's name actually appeared in the second-instance list, and there were two top cattle in the department actually fell off the list.

“What’s the matter, who said it?”

After receiving the news, Qu Shoulin, one of the downlisters, went directly to the office of the head of the department, Gao Xinwei, to shoot the table.In fact, he also knew that he should go to Beijing to shoot the table, because this matter and Gao Xin really had nothing to do with it.Aren’t they too far from Chicago?In addition, he really does not care about whether his application can be approved, he is depressed is the passage of others, but he fell off the list, which makes him how to have a face in the department?Finding the head of the department to take a picture of the table is also a way to save face.

"Don't worry, there must be something wrong in the middle."

Ghosn did not hurry to appease.In his heart, how much can also guess the reason for the fall of the forest.This old man was indeed a cowboy in the past, but in recent years it has been a little unruly, basically relying on eating old books.Don't do scientific research, nothing is hanging a name on other people's results, and the ranking can not be too backward, otherwise he will turn his face.This time, the subject he applied for really little technical content, some ideas still come from the theory of the 1950s, and now it is outdated.Originally expect to focus on the assembly of the people there will look at his fame to open a eye, closed a eye, now it seems that people did not give this face, it is no wonder that the old qun felt that his face can not be hung.

"That Wang Hongtai, what kind of nail catalyst, how did it pass the first trial?"This is completely new things, the National Economic Commission those people, in the end do not understand the chemical ah!"And he cried out.
