302. There Is No Upper Limit On Scientific Research Funding. We Have Never Fought Such A Wealthy Bat
302. There Is No Upper Limit On Scientific Research Funding. We Have Never Fought Such A Wealthy Bat
Gao Yongxiang and Tao Zhexuan were both stunned.
Lack of everything but money?
The most well-funded laboratory in the world?
Isn’t this too much to say?
How is it possible to do scientific research in the Dragon Kingdom without lacking scientific research funds?
Dragon Kingdom is a big country, and technology is also developing rapidly.
However, scientific research funding is relatively insufficient, especially for basic science research, which is very tight.
Dragon Kingdom is still in the process of development, and there are too many places to spend money. Compared with Eagle Sauce, scientific research funding is much lower.
And in order to catch up with the technological gap as quickly as possible.
Longguo's scientific research funds tend to be invested in engineering fields that show results and can be put into application as soon as possible. Research funding in basic research fields such as controllable nuclear fusion is relatively small.
This is also the reason why many 14 scientists from the Dragon Kingdom choose to work in scientific research institutions in Yingjiang in order to obtain better research conditions.
In the past few years, there was a very famous debate in Longguo's scientific research community.
There has been a protracted debate between Nobel Prize winner Yang Zhenning and Wang Yifang, a famous academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, on whether to build a large particle collider.
The famous physicist Yang Zhenning spent his entire life, and his greatest wish was to build a particle collider. However, at the age of 98, he suddenly changed his mind despite the infamy of the people across the country and firmly opposed spending 200 billion to build a large particle collider. However, the famous academician Wang Yifang believed that it would be too late if it was not built!
The Large Particle Collider is the pearl in the field of physics today and the best technological manifestation of a country's physics capabilities. It is of great significance to the study of the five ultimate mysteries of the universe and the origin of the universe, and it is an important contribution to mankind's exploration of the universe beyond the solar system and the discovery of new forms of energy.
But Yang Zhenning believes that the large particle collider is more like a technical project that is icing on the cake [and cannot solve Long Gui's pressing medical, education and other problems. This 200 billion should be spent wisely.
In addition, the research and development of large particle collider is a bottomless pit, and the investment of 200 billion assets cannot guarantee the success of research and development.
Therefore, as a laggard in scientific research, when choosing scientific research projects, we should choose projects with better cost-effectiveness and more utility.
In the end, the senior management supported Yang Zhenning's view. The Large Particle Collider project is temporarily on hold.
This is also a microcosm of the scientific research community in Longguo.
For many basic scientific research projects, it is very difficult to apply for funding.
The controlled nuclear fusion laboratory of Longke University has been developed by relying on its reputation accumulated over the years and the careful care of Longke University and Longke Academy.
Compared with other scientific research projects, funding applications are already very relaxed, but there is still a very, very, very lack of money, which has led to a lot of delays in the progress of many experiments.
Gao Yongxiang originally thought that Zhonghai Vocational and Technical College was just a junior college, and unlike Longke University, which had Longke Academy as its backer, it would definitely not get much scientific research funding from the state.
So I was prepared to live a hard life before I came here. As long as Han Yue's technology and route are correct, even if the scientific research funds are less, he will be able to create controllable nuclear fusion sooner or later.
But what he never expected was that Han Yue actually said that there was no shortage of money and that scientific research funds were available as much as he wanted.
Could it be said that this is a convenience specially provided by the state to Han Yue?
It's no wonder that he alone can win four Dragon Kingdom Science and Technology Awards.
There should be more funding for scientific research.
"Is it so easy for Zhonghai Vocational and Technical College to apply for national funding? But after all, it is the country's scientific research funding. Don't waste it on benefits such as housing allocation. Let's save more scientific research funding for the country." Gao Yongxiang said.
After listening to Gao Yongxiang's words, Han Yue spoke before Lin Honggang could answer.
"Director Gao, you understand wrong. We do not use national scientific research funds. The scientific research funds of our Zhonghai Vocational and Technical College are all earned by Principal Han Yue. In other words, our Zhonghai Vocational and Technical College has been doing research at our own expense! Lin Hongzhe said.
"Self-funded scientific research?" Gao Yongxiang and 187 Tao Zhexuan were both confused.
Can scientific research, which costs money like water, be self-financed?
As scientists, they know very well how expensive scientific research is. Each experiment of a controllable nuclear fusion device costs tens of millions. If it is turned on several times a year, hundreds of millions of dollars will be burned away, and there may not be any results.
In their view, no other person or organization other than the state apparatus can afford the investment in a scientific research project of the level of controlled nuclear fusion.
"Don't worry, don't you? It's hard to explain to you anyway. The superior unit did tell us that we can apply for scientific research funds. But Principal Han Yue is so good at making money. There's no need for it at all.
So we never applied. " Lin Hongzhe explained.
The scientists at the scene were stunned.
What is this operation?
Your superiors have said that you can apply for scientific research funding, but you still haven’t applied?
I've never seen anyone complain about too much money. .
