Chapter 672 I want to win the Nobel Prize(2/2)
He felt that Lu Yiming was afraid that he would be crazy about gaining or losing. This award is the crown in the academic world. Are you a college undergraduate who has not graduated yet daydreaming?
This is not something you can buy with money!
However, Lu Yiming is his prospective son-in-law and his boss, so Shi Caijiang endured his temper and did not curse him. Instead, he said to Lu Yiming patiently: "Stop kidding, I'm talking to you about the serious business."
Lu Yiming said seriously: "I'm not kidding. As long as there is no secret operation, I will be sure to win this Nobel Prize."
"Okay, then I wish you success first."
Now, Shi Cai didn't know what to say, so he could only hold his forehead and hang up the phone.
At the entrance of Moxin Technology's headquarters, Lu Yiming met Tan Hongbo's mentor Yu Kebao, as well as other members of the laboratory.
Although the professor in front of him is not good-looking, he has a strong scholarly temperament. He can be said to be an older straight man in science and engineering.
Yu Kebao graduated from the Department of Polymer Science and Engineering of China Jiaotong University, obtained a Ph.D. in engineering, and stayed at the school to teach. He was just named an associate professor in August 1999. Later, he conducted visiting research at the University of Sussex in England, the Toyo University in the island country and the Bayreuth University in Germany.
Such a resume is not only in the current country, but even decades later, it will be awesome.
Lu Yiming shook hands with Yu Kebao and said enthusiastically: "Professor Yu, I often hear Dr. Tan talk about you, saying that your research is at the leading level in the world, and you are a real master!"
Tan Hongbo frowned, and his eyes revealed a little confusion: When did I say this?
However, the only remaining emotional intelligence made him not refute at this time.
Yu Kebao asked: "Mr. Lu, where are the equipment you bought?"
Lu Yiming said: "Come with me."
Lu Yiming took everyone to the experimental zone.
Ball mills, sand mills, colloid mills, airflow crushers, screw shearing machines and other mechanical peeling equipment should be lined up, and laboratory raw materials should be stored in various ways, which is even more dazzling.
Looking at the world's top test equipment in front of you, everyone's eyes were a little wet. Yu Kebao almost cried.
After taking the lead in cooperating with Lu Yiming to establish Moxin Technology, he became the director of the Low-dimensional Carbon Materials Science and Engineering Center of Zhonghai, the director of the Institute of Physics and Chemistry at Jiaotong University, and the director of the Center for Nanoscience and Technology Research. I heard that he has been on the list of special professors of Changjiang, the School of Chemistry, next year, and the probability of passing is extremely high.
"With these devices, our research will definitely make a leaps and bounds," he said.
Tan Hongbo said to Kebao: "Professor Yu, with these devices, our research will definitely make very rapid progress."
Before coming, Yu Kebao was actually a little worried. Compared with the conditions offered by Lu Yiming, it was a bit like fooling people.
But now after seeing the experimental conditions here with his own eyes, he felt relieved instantly.
There is no doubt that this place is much more advanced than the laboratory of Jiaotong University.
Tan Hongbo excitedly said to Lu Yiming: "Are these experimental reagents available openly?"
It is really a very expensive thing to do scientific research. The prices of many reagents are often calculated in grams. In order to have clearer and more accurate experimental results, some experimental materials that need to be used must be of extremely high purity. They are basically unable to produce them in China and must be imported from abroad.
This means that extremely precious foreign exchange needs to be consumed and approved at all levels, and it may not be approved.
Lu Yiming had already prepared for this and immediately said: "I will allocate about 20 million US dollars in this annual amount of 300 million US dollars to pay for the laboratories expenses. As long as it does not exceed this number, you can allocate it yourself."
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene felt a little suffocated.
Twenty million US dollars are specifically used for consumables!
Although it is almost half of the 300 million yuan, it is more than enough to do consumables when doing experiments. Even if it accounts for 200 million yuan, the remaining 100 million yuan is more than enough to do other things.
In that person's words, it's: I've never fought such a wealthy battle!
"That's too much."
"It's true that he is the richest man!"
"I didn't dare to think about the experiment before."
Lu Yiming said: "In the field of materials, our country has put too much homework. It is necessary to spend some money to make up for it now. This money cannot be saved. We have to catch up."
Lu Yiming's words made everyone feel quite emotional and felt very frustrated. Tan Hongbo sighed: "Yes, everyone sees this gap, and if we don't catch up now, the gap will become bigger and bigger in the future. But the country cannot invest too much in this now. After all, it is still necessary to make every effort to ensure economic development. Private enterprises will not invest in these researches even more."
Lu Yiming said lightly: "If others don't invest, I will invest more today and spend more money, so that I will suffer less grievances tomorrow. I just hope you can be more successful and not let my expectations down. I can invest in you, ask for money, and I will find someone, but I will also ask you with the strictest standards. If anyone fails, I will kick on the spot and will not show mercy."
Inexplicably, Lu Yiming remembered the Bangguo who was choked by the island country on the photoresist.
Even the sticks who claim to be the empire of the universe have to bow to the photoresist, which shows how important the right to speak in the production field is for materials with technical content.
Lu Yiming said: "I hope you put down all the other research at hand and do your best to study graphene."
Yu Kebao frowned after hearing this. He actually didn't want to agree. After all, studying graphene and other things is too unreliable. It is better to do crystallization. Moreover, the progress of crystallization in the laboratory is higher than that of graphene, so he asked tactfully: "Mr. Lu, graphene is still in the theoretical and conceptual stages so far. Why don't we change our goal to be more stable?"
The concept of graphene was proposed as early as 1947, but it was not yet prepared due to the technical limitations at that time.
In 1986, when Kroto and others were studying fullerene structures, they first discovered a two-dimensional structure similar to graphene and proposed the concept of "spherical fullerene", which further laid the foundation for continuing research.
However, the difficulty of research and development is still huge. This ideal carbon structure material has not been discovered in nature. If you want to prepare it, it is conceivable.
Yu Kebao is still an associate professor now, so he naturally wants to do some confident projects, produce results as soon as possible, and then be awarded the title of full professor, then accumulate qualifications and success, and finally get the title of Yangtze River Scholar, and he will be satisfied in his life.
Lu Yiming was not interested in that crystallization at all. Moreover, the research progress of graphene abroad is very fast, and the breakthrough has only been in the past few years, so time cannot be delayed at all. He said, "Professor Yu, I think people must have great ambitions in their lives. Look at our laboratory conditions so good, wouldn't it be a loss if we don't get a Nobel Prize?"
After spending so much money in it, Lu Yiming naturally had to find a way to make it back.
Although Lu Yiming didn't care much about the Nobel Prize in his heart, there was no way, and people outside recognized this, so he thought he would still give it a try.
Of course, the most important thing is graphene. This new material can be used to make high-performance chips, which can truly overtake in the semiconductor field.
After all, in the current semiconductor industry, Xia Guo wants to develop, it is equivalent to fighting the whole world with his own strength, and playing on the track that others have built. If you want to overtake, it is almost as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Therefore, it is necessary to overcome silicon chips, but you must also be prepared to change the track at any time.
It is very important to have the right to choose.
"Nobel Prize?"
