From University Lecturer to Chief Academician

Project autonomy is the bottom line.

If it is only a nominal ‘sub-project’, it is also acceptable to do research on the mechanism of superconductivity and focus on larger projects of other institutions.

The current 'sub-item' is a sub-item in the true sense.

Priorities are clear.

The AC Gravity project in the Physics Laboratory is equivalent to serving as a part of the research project on the mechanism of superconductivity in the Basic Science Center.

This part still loses its autonomy, and the most unacceptable are two aspects. One is that it needs to cooperate with the research of the Basic Science Center to carry out experiments, which is tantamount to losing the freedom of experiments.

When the project loses the freedom of experimentation, it is directed to carry out research, and it is only used as an experimental machine. What is the point?

They want to conduct independent experiments, and they have to apply to the basic science center, completely losing the space for independent research.

At the same time, it will also lead to limited funds.

This is probably one of the reasons why many people in the Superconductivity Office agree with this approach.

The funds for affiliated projects must be limited. For a project that could have been allocated 50 million yuan, only 30 million yuan will be left once it is affiliated.

In addition, what is unacceptable is the one-way sharing of experimental data.

To a certain extent, one-way data contribution is equivalent to handing over the results to the basic science center. Even if the main research is still done by them, the basic science center will share the results for no reason, and can continue based on the results of the physical laboratory. experiment.

If it were just He Yi, Xiao Xinyu and others, they would not be too resistant, because the physics laboratory is really small, and the research and development level of personnel and experimental conditions are far inferior to those of the basic science center.

To put it bluntly, they just want to get funding. With financial support, they can do experiments, produce results, and expand the scale of the laboratory.

This is the case in small laboratories.

Normal affiliation projects are beneficial to the physics laboratory, provided that the physics laboratory cannot produce great results by itself.

However, Wang Hao joined the project, but the premise was not established.

The most unacceptable thing for Wang Hao is the first one. If you lose the autonomy of the project, you will lose the meaning of continuing research and development.

He has no need for funding, nor does he need to develop a laboratory.

In terms of data sharing, what he initially thought was that the two parties can share normal data, you share with me, and I share with you, sharing on an equal footing, it doesn’t matter even if you suffer a little bit, everyone is after all for superconductivity mechanism research efforts.

One-way is totally unacceptable.

On the contrary, he even thinks that the physics laboratory should be the main project institution, because they are a new direction, and a new direction has new potential, and it is not sure how much potential it has.

The potential of the superconductivity project of the Basic Science Center can be seen.

In fact, their project is similar to the research of the Superconducting Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences, and the purpose is to study the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity.

The research of the Superconducting Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences is carried out in an international cooperation mode. After more than ten years, there have been many achievements, but it has only increased the temperature of high-temperature superconducting materials by more than ten K, which is still conventional. For high-temperature superconducting materials, there is no qualitative breakthrough in the theory of the underlying superconducting mechanism.

Therefore, it is difficult to say how much progress can be made in the research of the Basic Science Center.

Wang Hao shook his head in thought, and started his own preparations for the meeting. He wanted to find a new research direction.

This research direction has already been thought about, but it just hasn't been summarized. He originally thought that after the start of the new project, he would start a general direction for systematic research.

Now it seems that it must be advanced.

Create tasks -

【Task 3】

[Research project name: Construct a mathematical model of the superconducting mechanism based on the exchange gravity experiment data (task difficulty: C). 】

[Inspiration value: 0. 】

"C-level? It's okay..."

Wang Hao looked at the task level and let out a sigh of relief.

If it is to construct a mathematical model of the superconducting mechanism, the difficulty must be at the s level or s+ level. "Based on the exchange of gravity experiment data", the difficulty will naturally be greatly reduced.

After setting up the task, he began to look at the experimental data of communication gravity, and a lot of data was already in his mind.

To make a mathematical model based on the data, a systematic analysis is still required.

It's not like solving an equation, but you have to have a fine-grained grasp of the data and find the mathematical logic behind it.

On the whole, it is a fragmented and complicated research.

...

The next day, the work is still there.

In the morning, several people went to the Natural Science Foundation together.

The number of people attending the conference has increased this day, because the Superconductivity Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences has already come, and the Basic Science Center has also sent people.

When newcomers meet, it's natural to exchange pleasantries without talking.

The people who come to the Basic Science Center are mainly Professor Jiang Jian. He is one of the researchers of the high-temperature superconducting mechanism project and once worked in the Institute of Physics of the Academy of Sciences.

The people from the superconducting laboratory of the Academy of Sciences were led by a female professor in her fifties named Hong Junjuan. Three of them came, which was equivalent to representing the superconducting laboratory.

This meeting has little to do with the Superconducting Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences. They only came to participate in the meeting because they participated in the follow-up project of Exchange Gravity.

It's a pity that the research results of Xiang Qiansheng's team are far inferior to those of the physics laboratory.

After Hong Junjuan shook hands with Wang Hao, he also smiled and said, "I really didn't expect that, Professor Wang, you, a great mathematician who will soon get Fields, can even do superconductivity research."

"I asked Professor Xiang before I came, and he was too embarrassed to say so. I guess I won't be able to see you until the day of the meeting."

Wang Hao was stunned for a moment, and smiled curiously, "Professor Hong, if you say that and spread the word, won't Professor Xiang blame you?"

"He's so weird!"

Hong Junjuan waved his hands indifferently and said, "I always say what I say, this matter is like this, I still know Professor Xiang's level, he is convinced to lose!"

"The same is true for the Basic Science Center. We also participate in their projects, and everyone knows what level they are."

She seems to have noticed that there are people from the Basic Science Center behind her, and she especially raised her voice, "Some people just don't know it. If they lose, they lose. Why are they still making small moves behind their backs?"

"After living to such an advanced age, I don't want any face!"

Jiang Jian, who was walking over, turned dark when he heard this.

Of course he knew who Hong Junjuan was talking about.

Of course, it's not him. His influence is not enough to make decisions on tens of millions of large projects.

Hong Junjuan mocked Wang Chenglin.

Wang Chenglin is the person in charge of the superconducting major project of the Basic Science Center.

Even if he wasn't talking about himself, because he came here on behalf of the Technology and Science Center, he still felt very uncomfortable, so he could only pretend that he didn't know anything, "Professor Hong, Professor Wang, what are you talking about? Are you smiling so happily?"

"It's just a bad old man who plays tricks behind his back."

"Who? Who can make you so angry?"

"That's hard to say. I don't know who I'm angry with. Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. You should talk to Professor Wang." Hong Junjuan pouted and walked away, emphasizing, "This year's mathematics National Conference, Professor Wang will definitely get Fields, he is the future of our country's scientific community!"

"That's, that's..."

Jiang Jian thought that a good man would not fight a woman, so he could only hold his breath in his heart.

He exchanged a few words with Wang Hao, and the discussion almost started.

Wang Hao, however, heard something from Hong Junjuan's words. Even the Superconducting Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences knew that the matter of the exchange gravity experiment being affiliated with the project was related to the Basic Science Center. Naturally, it could not be decided by the Superconducting Office alone.

Otherwise, why can't the AC gravity experiment be attached to the project of the Superconducting Laboratory of the Academy of Sciences?

Both projects are pretty much the same.

Most of the discussions on this day were carried out normally. Until four o'clock in the afternoon, Deng Bingcheng made a summary of the meeting and talked about the affiliated project. He didn't just say 'primary and secondary projects', but Emphasizing the exchange of research on gravity experiments is of great significance for promoting the research and development of basic science center projects.

After Deng Bingcheng finished his speech, Yan Jing suddenly stood up and asked, "Professor Deng, according to your statement, the exchange of gravity research is meaningful for the research and development of the Basic Science Center project, but similarly, the research of the Basic Science Center is also important for the exchange of gravity research. It also has a lot of meaning, I’m not wrong to express it like this, right?”

"Of course."

"That's right."

Others in the venue also nodded.

This is a discussion meeting for scholars, not a formal meeting. Everyone can speak, and of course different views can be raised.

Yan Jing continued, "Why do you only talk about the former and not the latter?"

"this……"

Deng Bingcheng didn't expect Yan Jing to ask such a question. He didn't know how to answer for a while, but after thinking about it, he simply said, "The project of the Basic Science Center has already started, and the communication gravity project is still under discussion."

"Then you can't unilaterally emphasize it? I heard that you plan to attach our project to the project of the Basic Science Center?" Yan Jing asked straightforwardly.

Deng Bingcheng said, "Isn't it normal for primary and secondary projects? Basic research and development are integrated. Only by sharing data, research progress, and referring to each other can we make more progress in basic research."

"It's impossible to expect an institution to complete such a general-oriented basic project?"

Yan Jing asked, "Then why are we not the main project? They are the main project? In the direction of communicating gravity, we successfully reproduced the experiment, and the follow-up comparison experiment also made our achievements more outstanding."

"this……"

Deng Bingcheng didn't know how to answer. He wanted to say that the Basic Science Center belongs to Capital University, and the project funding is as high as 180 million, which has abundant scientific research resources and high-level scientific research capabilities.

But how?

If you think about it carefully, you will know that if you say this, the other party will definitely refute, why are they so good, but the results of communicating the direction of gravity are not as outstanding as ours?

Deng Bingcheng felt that he could not bear the pressure by himself.

He immediately looked at Jiang Jian of the Basic Science Center, because it was originally proposed by the Basic Science Center to 'merge' the exchange of research in the direction of gravity with the projects of the Basic Science Center.

Many people looked at Jiang Jian.

Jiang Jian also knew what he should say, so he simply stood up and said, "Professor Yan, you don't have to worry too much, this matter hasn't been settled yet, it's just a discussion."

"Everyone is doing research on the mechanism of superconductivity, and there must be some cooperation. The way of cooperation is negotiable."

"Even if you want to determine the main and sub-projects, it depends on the comparison of the research on the main direction. If you can come up with a better and more potential direction, even if it is for science, our Basic Science Center will definitely cooperate fully!"

Jiang Jian's last sentence was sonorous and powerful.

His meaning is very clear, that is, to compare research directions at the meeting.

In a formal meeting, the research direction and funding must be determined, and at the same time, it is still necessary to discuss the level of academics.

The physics laboratory should come up with a formal research direction, that is, explain what kind of experiments to do, what kind of analysis to draw conclusions, how to deduce the theoretical mechanism of superconductivity, and what kind of results may be obtained.

These are all required to apply for a program.

Just like the alloy laboratory and metal experiment are horizontal projects that compete with WISCO, they must come up with a definite project report, explaining how to do the experiment, how to do the research, what kind of foundation, etc.

The review party will make a decision on the project based on detailed information.

The others nodded when they heard Jiang Jian's words. The qualitative nature of the project still depends on the research itself, and everything will be attributed to academic comparison.

If there is no better research direction, it is also reasonable to be affiliated with other larger projects.

Of course.

The exchange of gravity itself is a new direction, but the direction is limited because of the same research on superconducting mechanism.

In fact, the classified "communication gravity", that is, the study of anti-gravity, is the truly novel direction.

At this time, Wang Hao suddenly said, "Professor Jiang, is what you just said true?"

"What?" Jiang Jiancai was about to sit down when he heard Wang Hao's question.

Wang Hao repeated, "You said, if we can find a better direction, the Basic Science Center will fully cooperate?"

"of course it's true."

"Can you represent the Basic Science Center?" Wang Hao was skeptical.

"this……"

Wang Hao's question made Jiang Jian a little bit embarrassed, but he still nodded seriously, "I am one of the applicants for the project, of course."

"That's good!"

Wang Hao looked at everyone, stood up and said, "Everyone heard it. Professor Jiang Jian said just now that if we can come up with a better direction, the Basic Science Center is willing to cooperate with our research."

"Let me also say here, if we can't get it out, we are willing to cooperate with the project of the Basic Science Center."

"Then see you at next week's meeting!"

After Wang Hao finished speaking, he took another look at Jiang Jian and walked out of the discussion meeting with a smile.

Jiang Jianzheng was half-sitting, and suddenly felt a little flustered when he was watched.
