From University Lecturer to Chief Academician
Chapter 250 Before the referee shoots, someone has already run to the finish line?
Some time ago, Wang Hao and his research group published research related to semi-topological theory, which is considered to have cracked the mystery of superconductivity theory.
After that, the international media carried out large-scale reports on related research and superconducting technology.
There will also be a lot of science popularization on the development of superconducting technology in the follow-up, so that more people can understand the significance of the development of superconducting technology, and also understand some areas of superconducting technology application.
The news released by the Brookhaven National Laboratory defines the superconducting critical temperature of 120k as a very important indicator, that is, the superconducting critical temperature of 120k means that the large-scale application of superconducting technology across the industrial scale threshold'.
Of course, it is not realistic to popularize materials with a superconducting critical temperature of 120K for civilian use on a large scale.
For example, it is impossible to use superconducting materials that transition at such a low temperature, such as commonly used electronic products.
But superconducting materials corresponding to the transition temperature can be used in many other fields.
The application of superconducting technology is mainly divided into three categories according to the nature of the superconducting state, one is the application of strong electricity, the other is the application of weak electricity, and the last is the application of diamagnetism.
Among them, the application of strong electricity can be understood as the application of high current, including superconducting power generation, transmission and energy storage.
Weak current applications, that is, electronics applications, include superconducting computers, superconducting antennas, superconducting microwave devices, and so on.
Antimagnetic applications mainly include maglev trains and thermonuclear fusion reactors.
There are many fields where superconducting technology has been applied, including industrialized superconducting quantum interferometers, nuclear magnetic resonance imagers in the medical field, large-scale lhc projects in Europe, and so on.
For new superconducting materials, materials with a transition temperature of 120k are most likely to be applied in energy storage, magnetic levitation and superconducting generators.
All three are very important.
When the Ministry of Science and Technology's announcement was released, the focus of public opinion was the application of new materials, energy storage, magnetic levitation and superconducting generators were all discussed a lot.
At the same time, there are many surprised voices in the public opinion.
Before, many people were discussing how many years it would take to realize the popularization and application of superconducting technology, and the landmark research of popularization and application, x is to manufacture superconducting materials with a transition temperature above 120k that can be used in industry.
American's Brookhaven National Laboratory gives an exact date -- three years.
Many people think that three years is the shortest time. Under normal circumstances, it will definitely take longer. As a result, it is completely unexpected that there will be results so soon.
This speed is really amazing.
The domestic media have carried out a lot of reports on the new achievements, and the reports of "Renren Daily" are exciting. The reports have confirmed the absolute leading position in China in the field of superconducting technology.
There is a sentence in it, which is very critical for the comments on superconducting technology, "The development of superconducting technology can change the existing technical logic and is a strong driving force for overtaking on curves."
Overtaking on curves is a term often mentioned in the development of domestic science and technology.
The reason for overtaking on curves is because domestic technology lags behind the international level in many aspects, and there are also many areas that are stuck by foreign countries.
It is not easy to achieve cornering overtaking, because in the field of high-end technology, if there is an advantage in one aspect, it is likely to have an advantage in the future.
Changing the technical logic is fundamental to overtaking on curves.
What is technical logic?
For example, an ordinary mobile phone contains a lot of patented technologies, many of which are related to batteries, heat dissipation, and function matching.
With superconducting technology, superconducting power supplies can be manufactured without paying attention to heat dissipation, function matching and other issues, and patents in related fields will naturally lose their meaning.
For example, battery cars.
If it is possible to manufacture high-power superconducting motors and superconducting batteries with higher energy storage, it will naturally easily occupy the technological high ground, and some original technical research will lose its meaning.
This is to change the technical logic.
Domestic public opinion is full of joy and encouragement towards nature, and everyone is looking forward to the popularization and application of superconducting technology.
This time, China is at the forefront, leaving foreign countries far behind.
Soon, many reports appeared internationally.
Most of the foreign media reports are reprints of the announcements issued by the Ministry of Science and Technology. Even the analysis articles mainly talk about the technology of superconducting materials.
The direction of foreign public opinion is mostly envious of China's possession of the latest technology. At the same time, many people also realize that China is the first to manufacture high-end superconducting materials, so China must be the first to use high-end superconducting technology.
If other countries want to use relevant materials, they need to wait for domestic approval of relevant materials for export.
Because the sales of superconducting materials will definitely be very hot, there are many fields that can be applied, and the supply will definitely exceed the demand in the short term. Even if you spend money, it is not easy to buy materials.
Many people in the international public opinion are lamenting, "I really didn't expect that China was the first to develop high-end materials in superconducting technology."
"They really have risen!"
"If they produce a lot of material, will they sell it to other countries? Maybe they should use it first."
"Needless to say? It must be so!"
"Which country produces this material, it will use it first!"
Public opinion considers mainly civilian use, while high-level considerations are strategic issues caused by technology.
Superconducting technology is too important.
A superconducting material with a critical temperature above 120K means that it can help realize many new technologies. No country will hope that other countries will be stuck in the neck of important materials that are "necessary" for technology.
European countries all think so, and they held a special demonstration meeting for this.
Pilos Tasker, an expert in superconducting materials, made a speech on the announcement of the Ministry of Science and Technology's achievements at the meeting, "The semi-topological theory was developed by Dr. Wang Hao. On some key technical issues, the results he released may have some impact reserve."
"So it is normal for them to be able to preferentially manufacture superconducting materials with a transition temperature above 120k, but it is not certain whether this material can be used in industry."
"Not every superconducting material can be used in industry, and even iron-based operating materials may not necessarily be applicable."
"We didn't get information on the specific parameters of the material."
After Pylos-Tasker said a few words about the research results, he called on various countries to invest in the research and development of superconducting materials, "We need to invest a lot in this area, otherwise we may lose the qualification to join the competition in the future."
"If you lag behind in superconducting technology, it will be quite a terrible thing..."
Representatives from various countries participating in the meeting also understood the importance of superconducting technology.
Superconducting technology is not a single technology, and it can affect too many fields.
For example, what Europe lacks most is energy.
If a large number of superconducting materials with a transition temperature above 120k can be obtained, they can be used to manufacture superconducting energy storage devices, which may change the logic of energy and balance the demand for energy in a year.
On the contrary, if they lag behind others in superconducting technology and demand superconducting materials from others, their economic development may be greatly affected, and their international voice and influence will be greatly restricted.
Meanwhile, Brookhaven National Laboratory.
Arthur House, the director researcher of the superconducting materials project, also knew the announcement information of the results published by the Ministry of Science and Technology. He was shocked when he saw the announcement information, and he couldn't believe it at all.
Before Arthur House had time to digest the information, the Department of Energy had sent investigators to inquire.
Investigators want to know what Arthur House thinks of the new results.
Arthur House spread his hands and said helplessly, "What can I think? They have already said that they have completed the research and that they have the materials. You should ask them."
"I was absolutely shocked by it, unbelievable even."
"Their speed has exceeded my comprehension."
Arthur-House added, "For example, our research has not yet begun."
This is the truth.
Although the project team has said a lot to the outside world, the work efficiency is here. They just revealed the plan and are still waiting for sponsorship from investors and government funding.
Recently, the only thing they have done is to let a group of researchers build the framework of the relevant database, in other words, what they do is software work.
They also sent some people to persuade universities to join the superconductivity research consortium.
These are all preparations.
Arthur House is still very optimistic about the project. He believes that both the government and enterprises will definitely support the research related to superconducting materials, but even if the speed is fast, the real research will have to wait until next year.
result……
Has China achieved results?
Arthur House has a very ridiculous feeling, as if everyone is running a marathon together, and someone has already run to the finish line before the referee shoots?
Isn't this a violation!
All right.
There is no violation of regulations in the competition of scientific and technological research and development, but...how can this be compared?
...
After completing the research on materials with a critical temperature of 132k, Wang Hao did not continue to stay in the experimental group, because even if he continued to study, he could not improve much.
This is mainly due to the lack of theoretical support.
The research on superconducting materials has crossed a stage. Even the improvement in technology has almost reached the top. Even if it can be improved, it is only a quantitative change.
For example, from 132k to 135k.
The promotion of this level also has certain significance, but there is no need for him to intervene at all.
Wang Hao still has work to do, such as arranging for some new algebraic geometers.
These algebraic geometry experts are all from the Institute of Mathematics of the Academy of Sciences, and there is no need to question their level of ability. In particular, one of the researchers named Meng Guosheng can be said to be a top figure in the field of algebraic geometry in China.
Several algebraic geometry experts from the Institute of Mathematics of the Academy of Sciences joined the research. It can be said that the calculation group has grown a lot, with a total of 30 people, and even the level of personnel has improved a lot.
Knowing that they were introduced by Academician Yan Shiqing, Wang Hao couldn't help feeling a little fond of Yan Shiqing in his heart.
He and Yan Shiqing did not know each other.
The only thing I know is that Yan Shiqing was appointed as the director of the research center, but for some unknown reason, he never came to take up the post.
Later, Deng Huanshan was appointed director.
"Maybe it's old?"
"An old academician in his 60s is about to retire. If he is transferred to Xihai to work, he won't be able to exert much energy..."
Wang Hao also had some headaches about the work of the computing group.
In fact, the main work of the calculation group is to study the relationship between element combinations, rather than to calculate the superconducting critical temperature corresponding to the element combination.
However, due to the lack of the basis of "the superconducting critical temperature corresponding to the combination of elements", it is impossible to demonstrate the relationship between the combination of elements, and the latter has become the main work instead.
Wang Hao is also thinking about the approach of the Brookhaven Laboratory. The Brookhaven Laboratory is leading the formation of a university alliance to participate in the calculation of element combinations in the project.
In fact, as far as the domestic system is concerned, there is no need to form a university alliance at all. The Science Foundation can easily complete this work. They can release corresponding projects for element combinations, and algebraic geometry experts from various universities can take over the projects for research. .
This makes it easy to aggregate the data.
Wang Hao and Wu Hui talked about this issue. Wu Hui is the director of the Superconductivity Office of the Science Foundation, and he is directly responsible for this part of the content.
After listening to Wang Hao's idea, Wu Hui expressed his strong support, "Your suggestion is very good. To directly release the project for the combination of elements is tantamount to allowing capable algebraic geometers to participate in the research and development of superconductivity."
"I will write a detailed plan and then discuss it. This matter will definitely pass."
"Don't worry, the direction of superconductivity is the most important thing now. Whether it's funds or projects, the approval is very simple. It is estimated that some projects will be released next month."
Wu Hui's assurance reassured Wang Hao.
The research can have the support of the Science Foundation, which is equivalent to bringing together all domestic algebraic geometry experts to do research on the combination of superconducting elements.
At that time, the computing group only needs to study the relationship between element combinations, the workload will be greatly reduced, and the efficiency will be greatly improved.
...
end of june.
Wang Hao and Deng Huanshan arrived in the capital together to attend a high-level meeting held by the Ministry of Science and Technology.
The content of this meeting is to establish a new enterprise based on new achievements, and they came to give explanations about achievements, technologies and theories.
Because the participants are all high-level leaders with decision-making power, there is no need to make a special professional report, just go to the meeting to explain the new results.
Both Wang Hao and Deng Huanshan are researchers, and they don't need to participate in any voting.
After they attend the meeting to make an explanation, the work is over.
soon.
The meeting also voted.
The establishment of a new company was confirmed by the senior leaders, and Wang Hao also walked out of the venue with others.
He and Xu Baogong walked together.
Wang Hao knew many high-level leaders. Xu Baogong belonged to a person with a "medium position". The deputy ministerial level is definitely a high-ranking official, but compared to ministers, or even higher-level officials, they are actually nothing.
Wang Hao still had a better chat with Xu Baogong, because he felt that Xu Baogong was relatively closer, and Zhao Enshun had a very 'leadership' temperament, which made it difficult for people to get close.
Xu Baogong and Wang Hao talked about the content of the meeting, and also talked about the future development of the new company, "The core of the new company is the manufacture of superconducting materials. Although it has not been decided yet, it is likely that the location will be in Xihai."
"Because of the research center?" Wang Hao asked suspiciously.
"right."
Xu Baogong nodded resolutely, "In addition, confidentiality is also considered. Xihai is a very good place. For us, because we don't worry about the market, technical confidentiality is more important than others."
"Also, you may not know."
He said with a smile, "Some leaders even talked about you, and there is a decision related to you."
"What is it?"
Wang Hao was really curious.
Xu Baogong smiled and said, "It's good news. I'm very envious. The leader said that you should be given the best treatment, because you played the most important role in the research, whether it's theory or material research, even considering the patent issue. You should be given the best treatment."
Wang Hao asked doubtfully, "Is it a bonus?" He was looking forward to the bonus.
How much bonus can the superior give for such an important scientific and technological achievement?
Ten million?
Xu Baogong shook his head and smiled, "It's shares."
"Shares?"
"Yes, it should be one point. It's not sure yet, but it won't be less than five points."
Wang Hao was stunned when he heard this, and then he couldn't help opening his mouth wide in surprise. He was rarely so surprised, but what Xu Baogong said was really shocking.
one point?
What a concept!
The initial investment amount of a newly established enterprise is estimated to be more than 10 billion at least, and it may be more than 50 billion if nothing unexpected happens.
One point represents 500 million.
This is still the very beginning.
When it comes to the manufacture of "monopolistic" superconducting materials that can be used in industry, new companies will definitely have a huge development. In the next few years, the value will snowball, and the minimum is expected to exceed 10,000. 100 million.
At that time, even if the shares are reduced, 500 million will easily become 500 million, or even more.
Wang Hao felt that he had been 'bribed', but he couldn't say no at all.
In fact, the leader decided to give Wang Hao a share because Wang Hao is so important that he alone can stand up to tens of thousands of scientific researchers.
In addition, the development of new enterprises is inseparable from the superconducting materials research center, and future research and development cannot be separated from the theoretical support given by Wang Hao.
Wang Hao has many research directions.
If his research focus is on superconductivity, it may bring a huge improvement to the new enterprise. In other words, the development of the new enterprise is directly related to Wang Hao.
How can Wang Hao concentrate on doing research?
shares!
Once Wang Hao owns the shares of the company, he will definitely focus more on technical research.
Chi Guoguo's money temptation...
...
Wang Hao was knocked down by money.
He returned to Xihai University happily, thinking that he could get a small share, the joy in his heart couldn't hold back at all.
After returning to Xihai University, he still lives a peaceful life. He spends most of his time in the Mason Lab, thinking about the next research ideas, and at the same time caring about the projects in the lab and guiding students.
There is good news today.
Qiu Hui'an completed the thesis on Legendre's conjecture proof, and Wang Hao, as a supervisor and corresponding author, helped him submit the thesis to the "Acta Mathematica Sinica".
Wang Hao's paper as the corresponding author is naturally different from that submitted by Qiu Hui'an himself.
When the editor of "Acta Mathematica Sinica" saw Wang Hao's name on the manuscript, he directly passed the first review and entered the second review link of peer review.
Wang Hao was also happy for Qiu Hui'an.
After completing this research, Qiu Hui'an can be said to be a "taught teacher". Legendre's conjecture is not a major conjecture, but it can also be said to be a "medium-level conjecture in the field of number theory". It is possible to obtain a doctorate degree across levels abroad.
There is no such policy in China, but Legendre's conjecture as a master's thesis can even be specially placed in the Mathematics Society to win a Zhong Jiaqing Mathematics Award.
At the same time, it is enough for Qiu Hui'an to get an associate professor position in advance in any domestic university, and he will say "expert in number theory" when he goes out.
Wang Hao felt a special sense of accomplishment as a student becoming a talent.
He hopes that every student can be as good as Qiu Hui'an, but unfortunately, good students always belong to the minority.
Up to now, Xu Jie still hasn't found his direction.
Knowing that Qiu Hui'an had completed the proof of Legendre's conjecture, Xu Jie felt even more lost. He even came to Wang Hao to ask his direction.
Wang Hao asked hesitantly, "Xu Jie, if you just want to graduate with a master's degree, you can just find a direction?"
Although Xu Jie's mathematics level is the worst among the students, it is only compared with Chen Mengmeng, Qiu Hui'an and others. In fact, compared with other students, Xu Jie is still very good. After completing an ordinary master's thesis, Xu Jie It's not difficult at all.
Obviously.
The object of Xu Jie's comparison is Qiu Hui'an, and the worst is Chen Mengmeng. He hopes to complete a better paper, and the minimum requirement is to publish a professional SCI.
"Or else..."
Wang Hao thought of an idea, "Are you going to do research with Teacher Zhang Zhiqiang?"
"Teacher Zhang?" Xu Jie didn't understand.
Wang Haodao, "If it is pure mathematics research, you are indeed inferior in this area, but it is not necessarily the case for mathematical computer research."
"Mathematical computer..."
Xu Jie hesitated as he muttered, he naturally knew what Wang Hao meant, and felt a big blow in his heart.
What Wang Hao means is that he is not as good as others in the research of pure mathematics, so he can consider the direction of mathematical computers. For example, Luo Dayong's complexity theory belongs to the direction of mathematical computers.
Zhang Zhiqiang's research is biased towards computers, but there are also some mathematics content, but the application is relatively less.
Now Xu Jie's math ability is no worse than Zhang Zhiqiang's, so if he does research in the direction of mathematics and computers, he will probably surpass Zhang Zhiqiang in the future.
Xu Jie walked out of the office feeling a little lonely.
Now he has realized that his pure mathematics research is indeed inferior to others, but he is still very unwilling.
But that is the reality.
He knew it was only a matter of time before he accepted.
After Wang Hao and Xu Jie finished talking about the direction, they went to the next office to find Zhang Zhiqiang, but it was not about Xu Jie's problem, but to talk about the bonus issue.
The space agency program is over.
There is a large amount of project funds remaining, and Wang Hao plans to give a bonus to the laboratory staff.
Because there are many people involved in the project, it is impossible for Wang Hao to calculate the bonuses one by one. It is best to distribute the project bonus according to work. The complicated statistics and distribution work are left to Zhang Zhiqiang.
Wang Hao also particularly emphasized, "Send tens of thousands to yourself... 30,000."
"I have it too?"
Zhang Zhiqiang was immediately excited after hearing this.
He didn't directly participate in the space agency's projects, but he also did a lot of work in every corner, and he was able to get a bonus of 30,000 yuan, so the work was not in vain.
Wang Hao said indifferently, "Thirty thousand, don't think it's too little."
"A lot, a lot!"
Zhang Zhiqiang quickly waved his hands and smiled, he thought he would have an extra income of 30,000 yuan, and when he got home, he would tell Yanzi that Yanzi would be very happy, right?
While the two were talking, they saw Zhu Ping walking through the door of the office, shaking her curly hair.
Zhang Zhiqiang couldn't help whispering, "Wang Hao, look at Zhu Ping's head shape, it's really..." He shook his head in denial, "She still thinks she's trendy, but in fact, she's several years older and looks like forty .”
After he finished speaking, he added, "Our swallow is still young and beautiful."
Wang Hao frowned and said, "Your Yanzi is ten years younger than Zhu Ping."
While they were talking, Luo Dayong walked in and greeted Zhang Zhiqiang, "Come and help me move tomorrow."
"move place?"
Luo Dayong nodded, "A while ago, I bought a suite, and I can already move in." He shook his head and explained, "No way, Zhu Ping's parents said that when they have children, they will live nearby so they can take care of them. "
Zhang Zhiqiang grasped the point, and his eyes widened immediately, "Guangxian mansion?"
"yes?"
"How much?"
"More than seven million." Luo Dayong said the price honestly.
"loan?"
"Full payment."
Zhang Zhiqiang suddenly became sour, "Dayong, how much did you earn this year? You were able to buy a house worth more than seven million yuan."
"no."
Luo Dayong shook his head and said, "How can I have so much money, Zhu Ping's parents helped me add some."
"How much did you add?"
Luo Dayong said, "More than six million."
"..."
"..."
Zhang Zhiqiang tugged at the corner of his mouth, and said with emotion, "Dayong, I really envy you. Now I realize that Zhu Ping is so beautiful~~~"
