Feng Xiaochen personally came to Pu Jiaotong University and wanted to ask Wang Hongtai to go out of the mountain.In these years, Wang Hongtai's fame has sounded and his status is high, and Feng Xiaochen feels that he should be given some necessary respect, and he cannot be summoned to the past by a direct phone call as in the past.But who thought, Feng Xiaochen personally came to the door, actually did not ask Wang Hongtai, fortunately, there is a doctoral student Xu Zhiyuan out to play the round field, said he can take a few brothers and sisters in the past to respond to emergency, good for Feng Xiaochen has a step, will not be dried in half empty.

For Wang Hongtai's arrogance, Feng Xiaochen was very unhappy in his heart, but he also planned to give a shotback.People have aspirations, Wang Hongtai is not active on the equipment industry company, Feng Xiaochen can take him how?Previously, Wang Hongtai took the funding of the equipment company, but he also completed the project requirements and submitted a set of synthetic ammonia technology based on ruthenium catalyst to the equipment company.This process has been patented by the equipment industry company in China and Europe and the United States and other countries, becoming one of the intangible assets owned by the company.Wang Hongtai and the equipment company is a silver goods, Feng Xiaochen really has no good reason to force Wang Hongtai must help himself.

Please don't move Wang Hongtai, just invite one of his doctoral students, for Feng Xiaochen, that is, it is better to talk than nothing.He and Wu Shican came out of Wang Hongtai's office, and Xu Zhiyuan briefly talked about it, unexpectedly found that the doctoral level is quite good, although not compared with today's Wang Hongtai, but compared with Wang Hongtai a few years ago, but not inferior.A few years ago, Wang Hongtai was able to come up with the rumin catalyst process, Xu Zhiyuan, as a doctoral student of Wang Hongtai, did not say how creative, at least according to the ability of gourd painting or there?

Feng Xiaochen wrote a note to Xu Zhiyuan, let him take the strip to the second fertilizer plant in Binhai, to find the cold flying cloud that is organizing technical research there.As for Feng Xiaochen himself and Wu Shican, he had to stay in Pujiang for a few more days and visit researchers from other units, hoping to find a few highly skilled experts to strengthen his strength.

Among other experts, Feng Xiaochen also heard some comments about Wang Hongtai, and the more concentrated evaluation was that the young scholar became famous too early, but there was some enthusiasm.Coupled with the current universities, research institutes are engaged in the only thesis system, as long as you send more papers, your status is high, all kinds of honors are yours, other work is done again rotten.In this way, all units have appeared in the eyes of only papers and no social obligations of the "big names", what national interests, collective honor and so on, have nothing to do with them, in the words of later generations very popular, is a group of exquisite self-interested.

"How good we were at that time, no matter what achievements you make, the name right belongs to the collective, and even the biggest '腕', but also a member of the collective, like now, everyone only cares about themselves, a little data or anything, they must hide, for fear of being seen by others, snatching his achievements."

During the visit, Feng Xiaochen heard more than once that an old expert was so indignantly attacking the current evils, and at the same time, Wang Hongtai took out as a negative typical count.For such a case, Feng Xiaochen can only be heard, the collectiveism approach is good, but there are also drawbacks, the biggest problem is that it is difficult to mobilize individual enthusiasm.In the 1950s and 1960s, this practice may have some effect, after entering the 1970s, people became more and more "practical", and then want to call everyone public and forget selfish, in fact, self-deception.

“It is important to establish a more comprehensive talent evaluation mechanism.”On the train leaving Pujiang to Binhai, Feng Xiaochen and Wu Shican discussed, "It is unrealistic to completely erase personal achievements."However, how to effectively guide scientific researchers in the service of national construction requires new evaluation mechanisms.Papers are important, but papers alone are not enough, social services should be taken as the obligation of scientific researchers, with the exception of a few purely theoretical directions, most experts must have social service points, otherwise they cannot be promoted and rewarded.”

"It's too difficult."Wu Shican shook his head helplessly and said, "I have long thought about this issue, but it is too difficult to implement."The evaluation of domestic universities and scientific research institutions is to see the number of published papers, so the requirements of each unit for scientific researchers are bound to be more papers.To change this situation, it is not possible to rely on us to equip industrial companies, and I am afraid that it will have to be standardized at the highest level.”

Feng Xiaochen nodded and sighed, “Old Wu, you are right, the university evaluation was not what our equipment company can do.”In the past, there was no money in colleges and universities, we had projects on hand, and how much of the university depends on our face.Now the state pays more and more attention to scientific research, the funding of universities is more than in the past, and we don't care about our projects, and it is indeed too difficult for us to think about the ideas of universities."

"Anyway, Wang Hongtai is still very kind to us, and he has not snubbed us."

“Maybe he thinks we have some use?”

"Didn't he also send Xu Zhiyuan and a few master's students to the coast?"That's for us too."

“I just don’t know if they can come in handy.”

Feng Xiaochen's question was answered when he arrived at the construction site of the second fertilizer plant in Binhai.Cold Feiyun personally drove him from the train station to the construction site, heard that Feng Xiaochen wanted to know the work of Xu Zhiyuan, and the cold flying cloud did not delay, and took the two of them to a small open space between a pile of tower tanks.

There were more than a dozen people sitting in the small open space, each holding a notebook in his hand, writing and painting, and looking very engaged.At one end of the open space is hung a blackboard, which is fixed on an iron bracket.There were three people standing in front of the blackboard, each holding a chalk in their hands, and were arguing about something, perhaps feeling that some things could not be expressed in words, and they were still writing chemical equations on the blackboard, or drawing a diagram, which made people feel incomprehensible.

Feng Xiaochen saw that one of the three people was Xu Zhiyuan, the other two were also Feng Xiaochen, one is the engineer of the National Petrochemical Design Institute Zhou Ting, is engaged in pressure vessels, the level is quite good, the other is the technical director of the Beihua machine Jiang Xianyu, which is the industry's big cow.Looking at the frame of the argument between the three of them, it seems that Xu Zhiyuan did not fall in front of the two people, but the two people nodded at Xu Zhiyuan from time to time, and it was obviously Xu Zhiyuan who said something that made them deeply inspired.

“Feng!”

“Minister Wu!”

“Teacher Wu!”

Feng Xiaochen and Wu Shican appeared, there were eye-poof-eye people to see them, so they got up to say hello to them, those who were unfamiliar with the two people, heard others greeted them, and also followed the learning tongue, afraid of snubbing the leadership and predecessors.Everyone got up this time, and the three people in front of the blackboard also noticed, turned their heads and looked at them, and immediately stopped arguing and cast a warm look at Feng Xiaochen and Wu Shican.

"Chief Jiang, Zhou Gong, Dr. Xu, you have a very lively discussion."

He walked up to the three of them and asked with a smile.He glanced over at the contents of the blackboard and smiled and shook his head and said, "What you have written is too deep, but I don't understand it at all, what is this being discussed?"

"Feng always, you are too humble, who does not know that you are a technical expert in the equipment industry."What we just discussed is about the activity of ruthenium catalysts, and Dr. Xu gave me a lot of knowledge and let us open up."Jiang Xianyu said that he is the oldest of the three people, but also the highest level, this scene, naturally, is to be said by him.

Hearing Jiang Xianyu's words, Xu Zhiyuan was a little embarrassed, he said: "Jiang director over the award, I actually just introduced the principle of ruthenium catalyst."Jiang and Zhou Gong proposed to change the ammonia synthesis tower from vertical to horizontal, I think it is very reasonable, but for a while it has not been theoretically proved, Zhou Gong has just explained this reaction process to me."

“Actually, I just have a guess.Dr. Xu said that the activity of ruthenium catalyst is 10 to 20 times higher than that of iron-based catalysts, and the conversion rate is 12% to 26% higher, so that the entire ammonia conversion process can be greatly accelerated.The change of the composite tower from vertical to horizontal can increase the contact surface of the catalyst and the gas, so as to give full play to the advantages of the ruthenium catalyst.However, this idea still needs to be calculated to confirm, and I was discussing the calculation method with Dr. Xu just now.”Zhou explained.

Xu Zhiyuan said with shame: "With Jiang, Zhou Gongyi, I know that I really am a student, empty know some theories, and I know nothing about industrial principles."I just said that the situation of ruthenium catalysts, Zhou Gong immediately proposed that the composite tower should be changed to a horizontal, we just roughly calculated, such a change can at least improve the efficiency of 20%.Zhou Gong can make this judgment without calculation, this ability, I really can't catch up with the horse."

"Look at what you say, isn't that all a practical experience, and you will have it in the future."Zhou Ting tried to make a disapproving look, but his face still showed some triumphant colors.Not everyone with practical experience has such intuition, Zhou Ting just showed, is an outstanding understanding, of course, only people know how rare this understanding is.

“Have you guys been involved in the discussion?”Feng Xiaochen turned his head to a few young people sitting next to the record, these people he had also seen in Pujiang, knowing that they were Wang Hongtai's master's students, this time with Xu Zhiyuan.However, from their performance, the value of their trip is just playing soy sauce.

"We have the ability of Brother Xu, he just talked to Jiang, Zhou Gong, they discussed, we just want to understand it is very difficult, what is the ability to participate in the discussion ah."A master student was timid.
