In 1978, I was admitted to Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 68: Isn’t Director Xie impolite in front of such a large pile of cash?

"It is used to coat the inner pot of rice cookers. The polymer material can make the inner pot of rice cookers non-stick and prevent the aluminum ions in the inner pot from being separated when cooking acidic or alkaline foods."

Facing the dissatisfied Kang Yi, Xie Wei began to explain.

"You use plastic as coating material for rice cookers? Can people eat plastic?"

Kang Yi stared at Xie Wei with eyes wide open, his expression instantly becoming serious.

"PTFE will gradually decompose under high temperature. I designed the rice cooker to work at a temperature between 110 and 130 degrees Celsius. Theoretically, it will not produce toxicity under such a temperature."

Xie Wei remained calm.

What about common knowledge of chemistry?

Even though polytetrafluoroethylene has been identified as a carcinogen decades later, it is still the mainstream coating for rice cookers.

"Also, after preparing polytetrafluoroethylene, a lot of testing will definitely be required before the product can be put on the market. If polytetrafluoroethylene really cannot be used, then we can only look for other coating materials..."

“That would cost a lot of money.”

Kang Yi sighed.

When a new compound is developed, there will be a lot of research on physical properties, chemical properties, chemical data, toxicological data, etc.

This is the most time-consuming and costly process in chemical research.

Currently, the biggest problem facing the Department of Chemistry is lack of funding.

The detergent formula experiments and various chemical analyses cost tens of thousands of dollars in total, all of which were embezzled by Xie Wei from the 20 yuan fund of the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Department.

"I will find a way to solve the funding issue."

Xie Wei didn't tell Kang Yi that his father would be here soon with the money.

He was not sure how the school would distribute the money, so he would have to go to the principal's office to personally participate in the distribution of the money.

Li Rui has no experience in school-enterprise cooperation, and Xie Jianguo has even less experience.

Kang Yi moved his lips, wanting to say something.

Xie Wei quickly changed the subject and handed Kang Yi a piece of paper containing information about the raw materials and general process of preparing polytetrafluoroethylene under laboratory conditions.

"Director Kang, these are some of my experimental ideas for the preparation of polytetrafluoroethylene. Please help me take a look when you are free."

"First, chloroform is fluorinated with anhydrous hydrofluoric acid, antimony pentachloride is used as a catalyst in the reaction process, and finally tetrafluoroethylene is produced by thermal cracking, and then polytetrafluoroethylene is prepared..."

The preparation process written by Xie Wei is very simple.

But it is clear.

After reading it, Kang Yi frowned: "Chloroform will react with oxygen under light conditions to produce highly toxic phosgene and hydrogen chloride. Our laboratory does not have the conditions..."

"That's why I came to you."

Xie Wei grinned.

If I can do everything myself, why would I need Kang Yi?
······
"..."

In the principal's office, an angry Du Guowang sat opposite Li Rui.

I wanted to take a picture of the table several times, but gave up every time when I saw that the connection between the legs and the table was not completely repaired.

Shameless Li Rui will really deduct money.

Last time the table collapsed, when the salary was paid a few days ago, the finance department deducted 12 yuan from Director Du!

If the hard one doesn't work, then use the soft one.

Director Du changed his strategy and looked at Li Rui, who was busy processing documents, with a bitter face:

"Leader, my Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering has 20 yuan in funding, but it was all spent by the Department of Chemistry and the Department of Computer Science before the project even started..."

"Stop! I approved the note for you at the beginning, right? The finance department allocated the money to your mechanical and electrical engineering department, right?"

Li Rui snorted coldly, "Du Guowang, your little plan has come back to haunt me?"

"Mr. Li, can you be reasonable? I received the money. Shouldn't the Chemistry Department and the Computer Science Department spend it?"

Du Guowang became anxious and raised his hand, ready to bang the table again.

Li Rui looked at Du Guowang with amusement, his expression changing faster than the weather in June, and did not stop him.

Du Guowang looked at the table legs again and put down his hand in disappointment.

"Leader, it is a fact that they spent the money."

"Heh~ Why didn't you tell me about the contract you signed? The school pays, and you get a share of the profits from the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering? You're really calculating!"

"Who said anything about sharing profits? I'm talking about the cooperation with Hongguang Factory!"

Du Guowang defended himself guiltily.

"Let's talk about dividing the spoils?"

As soon as Xie Wei arrived at the door of Li Rui's office, he heard the conversation between the two and muttered.

Not intending to let Du Guowang and the principal argue any further, he knocked on the door. "Are you here? Pour some water yourself."

Li Rui greeted Xie Wei and ignored Du Guowang.

In front of Li Rui, Xie Wei walked into the office and asked Du Guowang with a smile, "Does the president disagree with the full cooperation between the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering and Hongguang Factory?"

Du Guowang glared at Li Rui angrily, nodded, and said nothing.

Xie Wei has always understood Du Guowang's thoughts.

However, Du Guowang never asked Xie Wei to help him ask the principal to agree to hand over the cooperation with Hongguang Factory to the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Department: Xie Wei made the thing, and the person in charge of Hongguang Factory was Xie Wei's father, and he was promoted by Xie Wei.

Comrade Xie Wei’s opinion is very important!

"Principal, the school's department responsible for cooperating with enterprises has not yet been established?"

Xie Wei asked Li Rui.

"I plan to let Wu Tao take charge of this matter, and I can also keep an eye on it personally. This will prevent some people from taking advantage of their shamelessness to give orders to the External Relations Department."

What a dirty curse!

Du Guowang didn't care at all.

"The External Relations Department is in charge?"

Xie Wei frowned.

The school did not have an external relations department before. It had an admissions office for admissions and a reception desk for reception.

"What? What do you have in mind? Your dad is almost here."

Li Rui heard Xie Wei's tone was wrong, put the document aside, looked at the time on his wrist, and stared at Xie Wei.

"I think the department responsible for school-enterprise cooperation needs to operate independently."

"Oh? Tell me specifically."

Li Rui attached great importance to Xie Wei's opinion and asked him to explain in detail.

There is no precedent in the country for schools to cooperate with production units, and no one has any experience.

Li Rui also knew that even if he got the policy from the ministry, the risks would still be great.

The above attitude is clear: before the national policy is introduced, we neither support nor oppose it.

"The school allocated part of the funds to the Achievement Transformation Office, which coordinated and contacted the experimental projects of each department and enterprises and institutions..."

Xie Wei's meaning was very clear. He wanted to make the department responsible for managing school-enterprise cooperation independent and prepare for the establishment of school-run enterprises in the future.

The work of running enterprises in cadre schools has different names and natures.

This is also why Xie Wei, after understanding the specific conditions of the times, figured out why universities that lacked funds and had a large number of scientific research results had to wait until the late 1980s or even the early 1990s to set up school-run enterprises.

"Which side are you on? We paid for it, and you got it, so how can you let someone else do it?"

Du Guowang was unhappy.

He hoped that all profits from the cooperation with Hongguang Factory would be given to the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering.

"Thank you, Director. Principal Li is inside."

Wu Tao's voice came from the door.

"Thank you, Director. Welcome!"

Hearing the noise, Li Rui hurriedly stood up, walked quickly towards Xie Jianguo, and stretched out his hands from a distance.

Xie Jianguo, holding a travel bag in his left hand, stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Li Rui.

So rude?
Several people in the office were stunned.

"The old man has become a factory director, and he has become arrogant?"

Looking at Xie Jianguo's behavior, Xie Wei was also stunned.

An unnatural look flashed across Li Rui's face. Just as he was about to speak, Xie Jianguo let go of his hand and walked straight to the desk, unzipping his pants as he walked.

"Crack~"

Xie Jianguo placed the bulging travel bag heavily on the desk.

"Once I got on the train, I was worried that my money would be stolen... Now..."

"Wow~"

Xie Jianguo just let out a sigh of relief, but before he could finish his words, the desk that had not been completely repaired fell apart again.

"Bang~"

Bundles of blue-black solidarity were scattered all over the floor along with the fallen desk.

Everyone in the office widened their eyes again.
