Chapter 574: You decide

The commendation of the commendation conference came to an end, but it was a wish in the minds of all scientific researchers who had spent their youth and blood on controlled fusion.
Compared to other people, in addition to a Lingyun medal, Lu Zhou also got an hour to play the right time.
Regarding the future of the STAR-2 demonstration reactor project team, the state also needs to refer to the opinion of his chief project officer.
After hearing the elders asking their own questions, Lu Zhou thought for a moment and then said.
"The STAR demonstration reactor base has completed its historical mission and it is of little significance to continue. My suggestion is that the technical staff and some core management groups be reorganized into a new organization or incorporated into an existing organization. To be responsible for the operation of the fusion reactor. "The TAR-2 demonstration reactor project is a huge scientific research project. In order to coordinate the scientific research resources between various research institutions, a large management institution supporting it is also necessary.
However, the entire demonstration reactor project has now been completed. There are not so many scientific research projects to support, not so many departments and projects to coordinate, and the remaining management appears to be a bit bloated and redundant.
The old man nodded, showing understanding.
"The people from the Nuclear Industry Group and I also suggested this. Our meeting and discussions concluded that the demonstration reactor project team was reorganized, and the main technical staff and part of the management team were formed to establish a new nuclear power company. It is operated as an enterprise. At present, it is temporarily named East Asia Power and is responsible for the construction of supporting facilities for domestic fusion reactor projects and cross-regional transmission projects in Southeast Asia and Central Asia. "
East Asia Power.
Just listening to the name, it seems that the ambition of the country is not small ...
Lu Zhou was also slightly surprised.
After all, the first fusion reactor plant has only been set up, and fusion reactors in the south and west have not yet been established. High-level officials have begun preparing for "supporting third-world brothers."
However, in a sense, the state has some reason to do so.
It's better to be alone than Zhonglele, and it's far better to take a group of younger brothers together to play alone. The market competitiveness of the entire East Asian region has increased, the influence of China in the region has increased, and the position of RMB in the global market will rise with the rise ...
However, Lu Zhou is not very interested in these things that have nothing to do with research.
Old man: "The management team of the demonstration reactor project is too bloated at present, and the newly established East Asia Power will certainly not be able to eat it all. The nuclear industry means that these managers can be repatriated to their original jobs. Units, they are willing to take over some of them if they ca n’t find them, but I always feel that it ’s a pity to dissolve them just like that. Can you see if there is any more suitable arrangement? "
"It's a pity to dissolve in this way ..." Lu Zhou nodded in agreement, saying with some emotion.
A huge scientific research project not only trains scientific research dogs who charge on the front line, but also cultivates countless management talents.
If these talents are dispersed and repatriated to their original work units, they are largely wasted.
After all, the most important thing for public institutions is talents in this area. One thing I ca n’t wait for is to split the two halves and give them to four people to manage. This is also one of the reasons for the low efficiency of state-owned enterprises in daily operations.
What's more, these people have been separated from the original unit for so long, and the vacated posts have long been separated. Even if you return to the original unit, you may not find your own place.
After thinking for a while, Lu Zhou's heart moved slightly.
A question he had considered a long time ago emerged from his mind.
"Instead of repatriating these people to their original workplace, it is better to keep them in a new form."
The old man asked, "A new form?"
"Yes," Lu Zhou nodded. "Can I talk about my thoughts?"
The old man smiled and said, "Of course, what I want to know is what you think."
Lu Zhou: "I have been in Germany for a period of exchange visits. I think they have a lot to learn from in the management of scientific research projects. Especially in the medium and long-term major strategic issues facing society, science and industry. On the mode of operation of scientific research projects. "
The old man thoughtfully: "Like?"
Lu Zhou: "For example, the POF funding model of the Helmholtz Federation, such as the Max Planck Institute's open corporate and R & D institution cooperation network. In my opinion, these are all helpful to improve the conversion rate of scientific research results of a research system. The rate of scientific research achievement conversion is exactly what we lack. "
Hua Guo's investment in scientific research is definitely not weak. It is even ranked second in the world after the OECD's purchasing power parity value calculation, behind the United States.
However, in contrast to the huge capital investment, the performance of the Chinese research institutions on the issue of the conversion rate of scientific research results seems to be unsatisfactory.
In theory, this should not be the case.
After all, in the allocation of scientific research funding, China has always had a tradition of biasing towards engineering. Compared with science research, it is more inclined to give money to engineering projects.
The issue of the rate of conversion of scientific research results is only one, and there are other issues concerning the efficiency of scientific research.
If you want to ensure the advantages of technology, it is not enough to lead on the starting line.
Technical advantage itself is a dynamic and balanced process.
Compared to the research on controllable fusion itself, Lu Zhou hopes that through this large-scale scientific research project, things other than the results themselves can be left behind.
It's as if the Manhattan plan brought not only the atomic bomb itself to the United States, but also a series of more powerful national laboratories such as Argonne, Brookhaven, etc., which are strong in medium and long-term scientific research projects.
For him personally, this will make his research easier.
"For the German experience, we don't need to learn from it all, but for the good part we can learn from it."
"For example, we can transform this huge scientific research organization into a window connecting enterprises and research institutions based on the experience of production-research cooperation left over from the STAR-2 demonstration reactor project and referring to the operation model of the Max Planck Institute and Helmholtz Federation. . "
"Through this industry-research consortium, we can focus on the research of medium- and long-term scientific research projects in the energy, aerospace, and information industries, so that funding can be implemented as much as possible. Get involved, not just that part of the system. "
After listening to Lu Zhou's suggestions, the old man seriously considered for a long time.
"Do you mean, use those remaining management talents to build a Max Planck Society in China?"
It seems correct to understand that.
It might as well be said that when he visited Germany to study, he expressed his intention.
Lu Zhou nodded: "Exactly."
Looking at the landing boat, the old man smiled and said, "You've gone out to study around, but you've moved all the good things outside."
Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly and did not speak.
Learn this thing.
Of course, it is not only knowledge that you learn, of course, you must learn good experience.
Forefinger knocked on the arm of the chair ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The old man thought for a while, and said.
"I think you're right, you can try it."
Anyway, those talents are mostly wasted even if they repatriate the original unit. He agrees with Lu Zhou's point.
Instead of letting these talents go to waste, let them use their residual heat in this pilot project.
If it succeeds, it is certainly a good thing.
If it is yellow, it doesn't really matter.
What's more, with the precedent of Jinling Institute of Advanced Studies, he also believes that Lu Zhou can handle this matter well.
After all, the old man stood up.
"Just as you said, the establishment of the Eastern Industry-Research Consortium! Focus on the mid-to-long-term topics in the three major industry R & D projects of aerospace, energy and information."
"As for what to do, you have the final say."
