Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 233 Planning of Two New Companies
The relocation plan of the Xihai Engineering Headquarters was formulated, and Zhong Cheng held meetings with Liu Yuzhu, Deng Lin, Ye Wenhao and his father and sons to discuss plans for the production of soil building materials and the promotion of wood grain planting technology.

The production capacity of the two core raw materials for the production of soil soil building materials, carbon nanofibers and wire rods, is obviously too small, and needs to be expanded, which happens to be placed in the newly built factory in Beishan.

Polyethylene already has three 80-ton ethylene synthesis plants in Qaidam, and now there is convenient air freight, and it only needs to transport the raw materials to Beishan.

If the production capacity continues to expand in the future, several 100 million tons/year ethylene plants can be built in Beishan.

As a soil building material that can completely replace the existing building materials, even if the annual output is hundreds of millions of tons, it is not too much.

For a while, Zhong Cheng has understood the difficulties of planting wood grains.

Sapura is a high-yield new crop that can be grown in harsh environments.

However, Er Bo and Ye Wenhao's research team found that this ancient plant had lost the ability to reproduce naturally for unknown reasons.

They use the most advanced biotechnology to activate the seeds in the laboratory, but the final seeds must be activated again, and cannot germinate and grow by themselves under natural conditions.

The most amazing thing is that although Muhe can grow up to five meters high, it should be a perennial woody plant, but in fact it is speculated that it can only survive for five years at most, and its vitality is exhausted.

This may be the reason why Muhe disappeared in the long river of history.

Therefore, the planting of Muhe in the future must be carried out in the way that Red Star Company continues to provide seeds.

Erbo and Ye Wenhao's current focus is to realize the industrial mass production of the seed-inspired technology, reduce costs, and make Muhe a practical economic crop.

This is also the reason why it is necessary to set up a specialized biotechnology company. The laboratory cannot complete such work, and Red Star Company does not have ready-made factory equipment.

From heavy industry to agricultural biotechnology is a project that crosses the basic industry, and Zhong Cheng must be cautious.

Another reason for setting up the biotech company was that Zhong Cheng wanted to provide Erbo with a stable source of funding for their agricultural research.

This also solves the identity problem of Erbo's research team. If the personnel relationship is directly transferred to the biotechnology company, he can enjoy the generous employee benefits of Red Star Company.

Otherwise, Zhong Cheng wanted to give Ye Wenhao a villa in Longling Villa without a name.

The second uncle suggested that Zhong Cheng bring Ye Wenxin's aunt to the biotechnology company. The aunt is engaged in medical research and is inextricably linked with agricultural technology.

The two brothers and sisters usually communicate a lot at work, and they are actually closer than their eldest brother, Dean Ye.

Zhong Cheng readily agreed that in the past two years, Qin Wenyu had made little progress in the research of "practice exercises", so she just asked her mother to help her.

Qin Wenyu's research on "Cultivation Technique" was very controversial at home, and Dean Ye and his wife firmly opposed this kind of research project that was close to fantasy.

The second uncle and aunt are very interested, thinking that Huaxia should not only pay attention to the development of industrial technology, but also pay equal attention to the research of the human body itself.

"Cultivation method" is just a nonsensical name given by Zhong Cheng. If it is changed to "human life enhancement technology", it will be different.

They believe that even if humans cannot live forever, as long as they can prolong life, strengthen the body, and reduce the suffering of patients, it is a technology that will last forever.

Zhong Cheng agrees with this point of view very much. The old people in the family are aging day by day. Zhong Cheng's parents are in their early sixties, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law are in their seventies.

He has decided to ask Qin Wenyu to focus on "human life enhancement technology" and not to participate in other scientific research projects.

In the past few years, his team has already had a team specializing in ergonomics, and Qin Wenyu can get away.

In the end, Zhong Cheng and everyone agreed that after handing over the work on Qaidam's side in September, everyone would return to Beishan to prepare for the establishment of two anti-companies.

R&D personnel can first conduct R&D work in the new building of Institute 804, and then consider the issue of establishment later.

Deng Lin was the happiest about this news. This time he can return to Institute 804 in a dignified manner.

His new identity is a senior researcher at the 804 Institute and the future technical director of the Red Star Nano Building Materials Company.

Zhong Cheng's promotion of him made him realize that it is useless for a person to have ability alone, and he must have a leader who appreciates his ability to be successful.

Different from Deng Lin's full-hearted joy, Liu Yuzhu was a little worried about returning to Beishan.

It must be a pleasure to be able to go home and reunite with his wife and children, but in the past two years, he has been doing technology implementation work in Qaidam, and he is more inclined to technology management than research and development.

What can he do when he returns to Beishan now?
Zhong Cheng's scientific research team is currently carrying out the intelligent robot project and the research and development of the new aircraft carrier, and there is no place for him. It will take a long time for him to master these new technologies.

Zhong Cheng gave him two choices.

The current popular power system is Kuafu power battery to provide electric energy, but the future power system will inevitably be a micro fusion generator and Kuafu power battery to share the world equally.

The two have their own advantages in different fields, and neither can completely replace the other.

Liu Yuzhu can choose a research and development direction between the two.

After completing the theoretical demonstration of the miniature nuclear fusion generator, Zhong Cheng asked Ye Wenxin to withdraw from this research project.

Ye Wenxin is better at theoretical research, and is not familiar with the industrialization of technology.

Liu Yuzhu was hesitant for a while. Kuafu power battery is his old business, and the current application range is getting wider and wider, so there is great potential to be tapped.

The miniature nuclear fusion generator is a brand new technology, so far there is not even a prototype, and he is completely unfamiliar with the technology.

The miniature nuclear fusion generator is also related to the White Tiger Mecha project that Zhong Cheng values. If he fails to complete the task, his status in the research and development institute will be further reduced.

Zhong Cheng didn't force him to make a decision right away, and asked him to understand the technical situation before making a decision after returning to Beishan.

As a colleague, subordinate and friend for many years, Zhong Cheng is very tolerant towards Liu Yuzhu.

Liu Yuzhu is different from Zhao Wei, Yang Xi, and Lin Wei. These people are real scientific research madmen.

If Liu Yuzhu is no longer interested in scientific research, he can consider transferring Liu Yuzhu to a management position.

8 month 1 day.

Zhong Cheng returned to Beishan with several plans.

At the group's high-level meeting held that day, he persuaded the senior leaders with irrefutable reasons and passed the plan to withdraw the Xihai Engineering Command to the headquarters.

Shao Weimin's additional investment plan was also approved by the way, but the effect was completely different.

Subsequently, Zhong Cheng's proposal to establish Hongxing Nano Building Materials Company and Hongxing Biotechnology Company in Beishan was also approved.

Soil building materials manufacturing and wood grain planting technology are brand-new high-tech projects with very fast investment and almost no risk.

Not to mention wood grain planting, the company has no intention of making money in this area, but only benefits the country and the people.

In Zhong Cheng's plan, Muhe will have more important uses in the future.

Although the unit price of Xiyang building materials is low, if the production scale increases, it is likely to become the main product that enters the top ten in the output value list of Red Star Company.

At present, the domestic concrete consumption is about 70 billion tons, plus about 1 million tons of steel for construction. If the global market is included, it is also a large market worth several trillion yuan.
