Xiao Hu, who was just excited by the extraordinary development of Tengfei factory, became gloomy again.
Both he and director Zhou belong to the North China Institute of optics. In the early years of reform and opening up, the days of the Institute were not so bad. After all, the country still had demand in this area, and several domestic camera manufacturers still had orders. Therefore, the days of the North China Institute of optics were not so good, but they were not so bad.
However, since last year, with the influx of Japanese cameras, major domestic camera manufacturers have begun to cooperate with Japanese related enterprises, or introduce technology to OEM production, or simply become OEM factories of Japanese enterprises. In a word, domestic cameras began to fall.
The North China Institute of optics, which relies on the domestic camera industry for a living, suddenly becomes very difficult, because the camera optical components they make have been ignored overnight.
If North China Institute of optics is one of the top optical research institutions in China, it's OK. Without the support of domestic camera manufacturers, it's just a piece of meat. It's impossible to be hungry.
After all, the state's annual funding is there, no matter how much food and clothing it can solve.
What's more, the absence of cameras doesn't mean that they can't be used in other places, such as the optical probe on the Infrared Air-to-Air Missile, the application of laser, the special camera for aerial photography, and even the optical components on the high-altitude reconnaissance satellite, all of which are inseparable from the research achievements of these scientific research institutions.
The problem is that the North China Institute of optics is only a small local institute. Compared with those high-rise national optical institutes, they are not even brothers. The funds of other large institutes are not enough. It is conceivable that the funds they get from such a small local institute.
In addition, the location of North China Institute of optics in the province is a bit awkward. It's just one floor away from the open southeast coast, but it can't get any preferential treatment. The overall economic level is not high, and it's impossible to support the development of North China Institute of optics with extra funds.
As a result, since last year, the days of North China Institute of optics have been getting worse and worse. Many technicians in the Institute have been looking for their own ways to survive. In less than half a year, they have lost more than half of their technical backbone, making the North China Institute of optics even worse.
Fortunately, Zhou Lei, director of the North China Institute of optics, was not only the last student who graduated from Harbin military industry in 69, but also the son of senior cadres in Beijing. Relying on these two identities, Zhou Lei searched everywhere for classmates and children, and pieced together many outsourcing projects for the North China Institute of optics.
It's barely enough for North China Institute of optics.
After all, most of these outsourcing projects are short-term projects, the longest is only two or three months, the shortest is only two or three days, and even some of them have nothing to do with the research direction of North China Institute of optics. If this goes on, when the foundation of North China Institute of Optics is completely exhausted, the Institute will be completely ruined.
How can we say that it's also a scientific research institute that we're pulling together? How can Zhou Lei watch the North China Institute of optics collapse like this.
So he came to the capital again and found his own faxiao. Qin Hongjun, an expert engineer in the Ministry of aviation, took a dead horse as a live horse doctor. He hoped that this young brother, who had been very resourceful since childhood, could give North China Institute of optics a sustainable long-term project that could make North China Institute of optics play its residual heat.
We don't want to make much money, and we don't expect to make much achievements. We just hope that North China Institute of optics can rely on this project to maintain its staff and technical equipment.
If this requirement is put in 20 or 30 years later, it will not be a problem at all. Should the state be responsible for it? Every university can easily let you eat and drink without worry, and even if several hundred million enterprises in the society fail, you can also live well.
However, in 1986, when the reform speeded up abruptly, this kind of project, which only aims to maintain the most basic operation of the Research Institute, was extremely expensive, because such a project has high requirements, and the relevant domestic units can't do it; if the requirements are low, the foreign ones are cheap and easy to use, so do you want to do it?
In this way, not only the North China Institute of optics, but also almost all the scientific research institutions across the country are very embarrassed. Many scientific research institutions have started to get some health medicine, magnetic health care and so on. At least there are people who believe in this stuff. They can sell it and have enough to eat.
In fact, Zhou Lei also wants to do such things. For example, he wants to do something similar to sunglasses, which can absorb the vitality of heaven and earth and help people open their eyes.
It's a pity that the idea is very good, but Zhou Lei is not expected to be a prodigy. Instead of being recognized by the mainstream metaphysics, he lost a lot.
But he had to go to the capital to find the right way. Naturally, he ran into a wall everywhere. Just because of this, Zhou Lei didn't have much hope to get to the gate of the Qin Red Army.
After all, the research directions of the two men are far from each other. Even the aviation system backed by the Qin Red Army also has the demand for optical components, but the high-end products that people play with are beyond the reach of North China Institute of optics.
He invited Qin Hongjun to dinner. After two cups of Laobaigan, he told him what he thought. Qin Hongjun immediately patted his chest and promised to help him win a great gold medal.As soon as Zhou Lei heard this, he was very happy. He immediately inquired about the situation of the big money maker, and then he was very excited. According to Qin Hongjun, Zhuang Jianye of Tengfei factory is more proficient in sticking wool than monkeys. How can he get money for nothing?
Therefore, although Zhou Lei smokes calmly in the hotel and tells the jokes of Qin Hongjun, he is actually more upset than Xiao Hu who is indifferent.
"Director, if what you said is true, director Qin's ability should be able to persuade director Zhuang. After all..."
"After all, he is the son of a senior cadre. The director of the factory does not look at the monk's face but also the Buddha's face, does he?" Before Xiao Hu said anything, Zhou Lei snuffed out half of his cigarette and picked up the conversation.
Xiao Hu nodded quickly to show that he meant it.
But Zhou Lei wryly smiles and shakes his head: "the old Qin family, like my family, can let you go to college. The rest of you can go as high as you can. The family doesn't care. You go to beg them, and you can get nothing but a scolding."
Then he looked at Xiao Hu: "otherwise, do you think I'm willing to be so tired? I can't help it. I have to give up my old face and do it by myself! "
Xiao Hu didn't know what to say. Looking at the water stains that had seeped into the quilt, Xiao Hu suddenly felt that his future was very slim, so the whole room fell into a strange silence.
At this time, the phone next to him suddenly thought of it, as if it was a curse to unseal it, which made the two people come to life immediately. Zhou Lei took a look at each other. Immediately, the voice of Qin Hongjun came out: "Lao Zhou, do you have any research on laser?"
"Yes, yes!" Zhou Lei answered without hesitation.
Smell Yan Qin Red Army hey a smile: "in this case, hurry to the opposite stew restaurant, there is a big project to discuss with you!"
