Beijing. The old house of the Zhou family!
When Zhou Yang returned to his old house, his family had already prepared dinner and were waiting for him!
The eldest brother Zhou Ping also got off work. When he saw Zhou Yang and Chen Beixuan pushing the door open, he immediately said with a smile: "I'm back, wash your hands and eat quickly!"
"okay!"
For dinner, we had leftovers from lunch. Although they were leftovers, they were still rich.
Furthermore, my sister-in-law cooked a pot of Mongolian milk tea for everyone in the afternoon, and it was quite delicious to drink the milk tea while eating.
After eating, the mother looked after the children while Li Youwei and Tana, Huang Rufeng and Li Haiyan cleaned up the dining area together.
But Zhou Yawen said something and called his two sons to his study.
Zhou Yang and Zhou Ping knew that their father had something to say to them, so they each followed him in with their water glasses.
After sitting down around a small round table, Zhou Yang immediately poured a glass of water for his father and elder brother before sitting down.
Zhou Yawen looked at the two sons in front of him, and then said: "Our father and son haven't talked for a while, so let's sit down for a while while we have time today!"
Zhou Yang nodded and said, "It's been a while since we had a good chat. Dad, how is your work at school? Is it going well?"
"It's okay, but I'm a little uncomfortable with it!" Zhou Yawen said.
"Why don't you get used to it?"
"I was originally an academic cadre, but now I spend most of my time doing administrative work. How can I adapt to it in a short while?"
Then Zhou Yawen said again: "Furthermore, things in the school are complicated. Every day when I open my eyes, I have to face thousands of teachers and students eating, drinking, and eating. It has been very tiring in the past few months!"
"Dad, do you like your current job?" Zhou Yang asked seriously.
Zhou Yawen thought briefly, and then said: "I don't say I like it. I would rather do scientific research in the laboratory than do administrative work."
"But many scientific research projects in the school can only be funded and run after my signature. Now I don't need to ask my grandfather or grandma to ask for help for some things that I couldn't control before. I can have the final say myself, so I feel It’s not a waste of time, it feels good anyway!”
"Painful and happy at the same time!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
Zhou Ping echoed, "I think Dad is quite happy to do this job, but he just lacks a laboratory!"
Zhou Yang also smiled, and then said: "Dad, as the head of the school, your most important task is not scientific research, but how to lead the most professional chemical engineering school in our country to become the world's first-class school, and for Our country’s modernization drive cultivates outstanding chemical engineering talents, and everything else is secondary!”
Zhou Yawen nodded and said: "You are right. Compared to me getting one or two projects, the big goals and tasks you just mentioned are more important, because those students are the hope of the future of the chemical industry! "
"We just want to build the School of Chemical Engineering into a world-class university. This task is really too big. The gap between us and foreign countries is really big. Without 30 to 50 years of catching up, it is impossible to catch up!"
Zhou Yang also agreed with his father's statement. Indeed, there is a considerable gap between our chemical industry and Western countries. This is undoubtedly and cannot be denied.
In our previous life, we did pursue it for decades before we achieved a little bit, but we dare not say that we are the best in the world.
But now that he's here, anything is possible!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang immediately said: "Dad, although what you said is reality, you have to believe in the magical creativity of our descendants of Yan and Huang, the descendants of the dragon. We can smash the old world and open up a new world, and we can also make great achievements in the chemical industry." To break through smoothly, all you need to do is follow the right path!"
"This is the right path, but it is easier said than done. Competition among companies in the chemical industry has been fierce in recent years. On the one hand, due to an in-depth understanding of the reaction process, some traditional basic chemical product production equipment can be made larger and larger to reduce costs."
Then Zhou Yawen continued: "At the same time, due to the rise of the new technological revolution, new requirements have been put forward for the chemical industry, which has promoted the technological progress of the chemical industry and developed fine chemicals, ultrapure substances, new structural materials and functional materials. "
"Faced with so many new fields, new requirements, and new challenges, every step we take is to cross the river by feeling the stones, and it is difficult to ensure a good step. More importantly, we have no trial and error at all now. Time and cost..."
Before his father could finish speaking, Zhou Yang interrupted him and said, "Dad, let me first talk about my thoughts on the future development trend of the chemical industry. I think the future chemical industry will inevitably be a large-scale, classified... Develop in the direction of refinement.”
"Specifically speaking, the development should focus on chemicals for information technology, high-performance synthetic materials, polymer materials, energy materials and energy-saving materials, and medicinal chemistry. If your school of chemical engineering can plan in advance and offer courses in this area, or It is to conduct research in related fields on campus. I think it won’t take many years before Beijing Institute of Chemical Engineering will emerge as a new force and become a world-famous chemical engineering university!”
After listening to Zhou Yang's words, Zhou Yawen fell into deep thought.
He still very much agreed with his son's judgment.
As a top expert and professor in the field of chemical engineering, Zhou Yawen knows very well that schools now teach traditional and basic majors, which are far from meeting the requirements of economic development.
But as my son said, if we want to fully develop the high-tech fields above, there will be a lot of pressure and difficulties. After all, this requires breaking tradition.
"I will discuss this matter with the State Education Commission and other leaders of the school as soon as possible. If this matter is really passed, you will have to carefully check it!" Zhou Yawen said.
"no problem!"
Zhou Yang is very familiar with the development direction of the chemical industry, whether it is medicinal chemistry or new materials.
Regardless of whether his father could persuade the State Education Commission or other leaders of the School of Chemical Engineering, Zhou Yang would cooperate with them.
After all, the chemical industry is closely related to the third-generation aircraft project he will study next. The reason why the third-generation aircraft is so difficult to develop is that on the one hand, it uses a lot of new electronic technologies, and on the other hand, it uses a lot of new aerospace materials.
Such as polyacetal, polybenzothiazole, polybenzimidazole and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene terpolymer as structural materials, they have high strength, impact resistance, wear resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, It has the characteristics of good heat resistance and excellent electrical properties.
It is light in weight and easy to form, and is widely used in aerospace, automobiles, electrical appliances, building materials, etc.
If he wants to create a real third-generation aircraft, he not only needs the cooperation of Babaoliang Research Institute and Liaoshen Aircraft Factory, but also needs breakthroughs in the field of materials.
So he came back this time just to talk to his father about this matter. If their School of Chemical Engineering could take on this task, he wouldn't have to look for other departments and institutions.
Then, Zhou Yang turned his attention to his eldest brother and asked, "Brother, you have been interning in the printing factory for a while. How do you feel?"
Zhou Ping smiled and said: "Very good. Although our printing factory is a little busy, the work remuneration and benefits are very good. Moreover, colleagues here get along very easily, and there is not so much intrigue. , very suitable for people like me!”
“And I feel like I was born to do this. I work with my colleagues to compile new teaching materials every day. I feel relaxed and happy!”
"That's good. Brother, you can intern at the Second Factory before graduation. As for where to work in the future, we will discuss it after you graduate!" Zhou Yang said.
"OK!"
Then Zhou Ping said again: "After chatting with you last time, I have been exploring the model of new teaching aid materials. After some thinking, I plan to compile a set of teaching materials that integrate teaching, knowledge point summary and exercise exercises. Some of the auxiliary materials and Chinese language have been prepared.”
"If you have time, please help me take a look. If there are no problems, I will continue to compile it and then submit it to the factory for publication!"
"Okay, where is the manuscript?" Zhou Yang said.
"In my bedroom, I'll get it for you!"
"OK..."
