Chapter 507 Ma Ge Shroud Return
"The hall has become a staff dormitory. These people don't go back by themselves?" Su Cheng's tone could not be heard well or bad. He walked around the side of the stairwell and saw that on the floor of the hall behind the sheets, there were twenty or thirty people sleeping horizontally, some sleeping on the bedding, and some hiding in sleeping bags. Most of them were wrapped in a thin quilt, both as a mattress and a quilt. As for the pillow, it is almost all replaced by books.
In the whole hall, except for a space in the middle for going up and down the stairs, there are people sleeping on both sides. Thanks to the hot weather, such an empty hall will not be cold and windy. This kind of Datongpu is not Datongpu. Sucheng has only seen it in the oilfield battle, but that scene is a spiritual victory over material, which is different from the background of this era.
Wang Yun was a little nervous. Two months ago, he was still a researcher who only cared about the project. In a blink of an eye, he had to consider the food and drink of the whole research institute. He couldn't tell whether what he did was right or wrong. He hesitated for a long time and told the truth, "In fact, most of Of. You know, we do research day and night. Some people don't get off work until one or two o'clock in the morning. They don't even have a car outside, and they can't go back. They can only deal with it in the office for one night. After going back and down, many people moved their luggage.
Su Cheng also knew about low-paid assistants and unpaid interns. He nodded slightly and asked, "How many people sleep in the office building?"
"They all sleep in shifts, two or three hundred people."
"So much?" Su Cheng turned his head in surprise. Dozens of people slept in the hall, and he thought it was too much.
Wang Yun whispered, "We recruit more interns and assistants."
"How much?"
"It's almost two thousand." This is twice as much as it was a month ago.
Su Cheng took a deep breath: "You are almost in time for the total number of employees in Dahua Laboratory."
"The Carbon Fiber Research Institute has approved 120 people. According to the number of our experiments, it will take three years to complete the current two-month amount. I think that we have the equipment now, and the experimental methods have been clarified. We can't slow down because of human reasons... In addition, the cost of assistants and interns is low, so we recruit more people. When Wang Yun said this, he said like a showdown, "If we don't use this method, even if we can make cheap carbon fiber in two or three years, we can't sell it at the price." The speed of foreign companies can reduce the price of carbon fiber by one-third in a year. Even if we don't take the lead, we don't have an advantage.
Su Cheng didn't say anything when he heard this and went upstairs by himself.
I said everything I could say, but I didn't get a response. Wang Yun was dumbfounded and thought to himself: Dead or alive, please give me a happy one.
Catch up and ask, Wang Yun didn't dare, so he could only whisper to Yang Ming next to him, "Is this Su Dong's approval or disapproval?"
Yang Ming couldn't judge it, but he didn't want to show his timidity and said, "What do you think?"
"Are you angry?"
"It's hard to say." Yang Ming patted him on the shoulder and said, "Shall we go up first?"
Fearing that he would continue to ask, Yang Ming ran up the stairs in three steps and two steps.
Looking at the monkey-like office director, Wang Yun was stunned for a long time and chased after him regardless of his image.
The second floor is an ordinary office building style, with a corridor in the middle, full of laboratories on both sides, and one or two windows in the room, which are much brighter than the dark office buildings common in the 1990s.
There are signs at the door of each laboratory and office, mostly chemical laboratories and physical testing laboratories.
When Su Cheng went upstairs, he saw that the door of the "mechanical performance test laboratory" in front of him was open. A young experimenter probed his brain. When he saw Su Cheng and his party, he immediately stood up straight, obviously waiting for the review.
"Are you an intern or an assistant?" Su Cheng asked him.
"Intern."
"Unpaid?"
"There is a subsidy of 2 yuan a day." The intern answered carefully and looked at Wang Yun from behind.
2 yuan a day, if you don't work overtime, it is 40 yuan per month. Even if you work every day, 60 yuan a month is only enough for the cost of food in 1993, and you have to bear the cost of accommodation and clothing. In the case of not including food and accommodation, the subsidy of 2 yuan is really equivalent to no pay. Probably, only ungraduated college students can stand it.
"Why are you willing to do an unpaid internship?" Su Cheng is really curious. College students in 1993 are still very expensive, and the system of package allocation still exists. No matter what school or major, it is not difficult for college students to find a job in an iron rice bowl, and the unpaid internship in Dahua Laboratory is not guaranteed to be hired.
The Carbon Fiber Research Institute has 120 people, but there are 2,000 assistants and interns. No matter how it expands, it is impossible to expand more than ten times.
The intern standing opposite Sucheng looked at Wang Yun and said, "I believe I can stay."
"Can't you stay? There will always be people who can't stay."
"I can become an assistant within the year, accumulate working hours, and I will definitely stay."
"If you graduate, haven't you stayed yet?"
"I have graduated." The intern was exposed to the sun.
"You gave up the national distribution?" Nowadays, college students will be assigned to different national units after graduation, and there is no need for civil service examinations. Correspondingly, it is difficult to enter state organs if you give up the assignment, and there is also no path to the civil service examination.
Su Cheng himself was assigned from the school to the oil field. For any college student, it is a bold measure to give up the national distribution. If you directly enter a private enterprise to get a high salary, it will be fine. As a low-paying assistant, Su Cheng asked himself that he could not do it.
The intern opposite didn't think so and said, "There's nothing good about the national distribution. I'm going to do research."
There was no shortage of college students full of ideals in the 1990s. In fact, most college students in the 1990s didn't have to worry about food and clothing, even if they didn't do anything amazing. Without material confinement, you can naturally release your ideals. Such an opportunity is the envy of ordinary college students in later generations.
Su Cheng sighed and said with a smile, "The national research institute can also do research."
"They? The salary is a little more than the assistant. The assistant is 180 yuan a month, but he can follow the researcher and associate researcher to do the project, and there is also a project bonus. How many projects in the domestic research institute can be divided into 100,000 yuan? In the end, I waited for death with a dead salary of several hundred yuan. Many researchers aged 30 and 40 did more experiments in a year than I did in a month. Perhaps confused by Su Cheng's smile, the intern also let go and said, "Besides, as long as you are an assistant researcher, you will get a month's salary of 1,000 yuan, and being an associate researcher is two or 3,000 yuan. You will earn it back in two years!"
With the salary standard of Dahua Industry, even ordinary researchers without "special contributions", the monthly salary is more than 1,000 yuan. Depending on the level, the salary of 2,000 yuan or even 3,000 yuan is common.
Of course, Dahua's ordinary researchers are also rare academic elites in China. In the past two years, they directly recruited newly graduated students. Their resumes and college grades can blind the krypton dog's eyes, the high scores of the national competition, the national scholarships or papers with high impact factors are just appetizers... China's education system has always been an elite education, which has not changed until 20 years later. Although you can graduate without studying, it is still not easy to study hard and get excellent grades.
No matter how the media belittles China's university education, even if 90 students do not study in college, there are still 10 students studying. If any student wants to win the first place, there is still cruel competition. In fact, China's university education has always faced top 10 or even 5 students. The new knowledge system and excessive schoolwork requirements have not changed until 20 years later. The expansion of enrollment may have increased the number of students, but it has not reduced the schoolwork requirements of universities. For 90 students who do not have a solid foundation, they may have made achievements in business, politics or art, but unless it takes several times the time, most of them are doomed not to make academic achievements at the beginning of admission.
For the current Dahua Industry, the conditions for students who can join at the beginning of graduation must be top-notch in all aspects. Basically, the resumes of most school graduates must be the most beautiful 10 to have an interview opportunity. Naturally, the requirements of Dahua Laboratory for increasing treatment and status are higher. Only with the two difficulties of the written examination and the interview, most of the elite students, school students who lack famous teachers and excellent teaching equipment, are basically difficult to enter the door of Dahua Laboratory.
It is foreseeable that with the current low-paying assistant and unpaid intern system implemented by Dahua Laboratory, the difficulty of joining Dahua Laboratory will only increase in the future, not decrease. At least, except for those who have made achievements, the vast majority of newcomers have to start from interns.
However, compared with domestic research institutes, Dahua Laboratory has invested much more money. The 1990s was a low tide for domestic research institutions. The lack of funds was not even enough to guarantee the wages and benefits of researchers. How could it be like Dahua Laboratory to do expensive material experiments like Dahua Laboratory?
Such a situation is difficult to change in at least ten years. Especially before the implementation of the patent law, the research results of state-owned research institutions were almost given to enterprises for free, and the amount of money they earned by enterprises would not be distributed to research institutions. Research institutions also lack interest in market-oriented products, preferring to do cost-saving and pleasant theoretical research...
In domestic research institutes, only a few state-guaranteed projects can obtain a small amount of special funds. For example, carbon fiber projects will be late for 1967 before entering the list of national guarantees and obtaining a small amount of funding. After 15 years, it will be included in key projects and receive a large amount of funding.
But for current researchers, there are a few more five years, a few fifteen years of waiting.
Wang Yun has done experiments on paper countless times. The progress of the Carbon Fiber Research Institute of Dahua Laboratory is so fast thanks to his early accumulation. However, if there were the current experimental conditions before, why wait until now to produce results?
"What are the requirements from interns to assistants and then to assistant researchers?" Su Cheng asked Wang Yun this time.
Wang Yun said a little unnaturally: "Time plus assessment. At present, it is set for an unpaid intern to work for half a year or more than 1,200 hours, and the assessment will be transferred to an assistant. The effective working time of the assistant is more than 10,000 hours, or on the recommendation of the chief researcher, he will be turned into an assistant researcher
The assistant researcher is a regular employee of Dahua Industry. Wang Yun said tentatively and asked, "In three or four years, our Carbon Fiber Research Institute can always add hundreds of staffing, right?"
"If you make achievements, you can naturally increase the number of staffing."
"How much can I add?" Wang Yun didn't have so many twists and turns, so he asked directly.
Su Cheng was asked and said dumbly, "The personnel department has to go. Are you in such a hurry?"
"I'm not worried that the previous promise will be invalidated. If there are more staffing, everyone will have more energy to work. I regret it now. I filled up 120 staffing at that time. Wang Yun really looked regretful. He patted his head and said, "At that time, he was also squeezed out. He was not young enough to do projects independently. His salary was not high enough, and he was unwilling to resign. Later, in order to cooperate with them, so many low-paying assistants and unpaid interns were recruited. Without nodding, the research institute could not continue.
With that, Wang Yun looked at Su Cheng and said, "You see, let's make the finished carbon fiber in two months. If we can add another 120 pieces this year, I promise to make two more carbon fibers!"Sucheng habitually meditate.
Yang Ming was worried about his promise and hurriedly said, "The Carbon Fiber Research Institute is not in this year's budget. The 120 people are all budgeted by the mobile budget. The salary of the assistant and the subsidy of interns are also out of the budget. The research fund is the overall budget of Dahua Laboratory, which squeezes up the funds of several Jin, if the funds and salaries of another 120 people are increased, everyone will have to rebel.
For Yang Ming, Wang Yun had nothing to say. He said with a neck, "Increase 120 assistant researchers, only increase the salary. It's okay not to increase the funds. The assistant researchers don't do independent projects."
"Then you have to pay hundreds of thousands of yuan more every month. You can talk to Li Huanxiang to see where Dahua Laboratory can get hundreds of thousands of yuan." The annual funding of Dahua Laboratory is hundreds of millions of yuan, but it is divided by several research institutes, and then it is not much in the overall funding of the laboratory. Thousands of researchers are waiting to be fed with thousands of projects, and the funds were scraped at the beginning of the year, not to mention that it is the end of the year. In addition, there is also a clear distinction between experimental funds and personnel salaries in the budget of Dahua Laboratory. Yang Ming has been doing administration for many years and knows how troublesome it is to coordinate these things. At that time, not only Dahua Laboratory has to do a lot of documents, but also Dahua Headquarters also needs to check countless documents in the increasingly institutionalized Dahua. Industry, these literary work are indispensable, otherwise the management of the headquarters will be out of control.
Wang Yun, like other researchers, was extremely dissatisfied with the bureaucratic style and bargained: "120 is not enough, 100 is also good. We have a small 500 assistant now, and we have to solve one-fifth of it.
Yang Ming said suspiciously, "You said that the effective working time of 10,000 hours is 1,250 working days according to 8 hours a day. Even if you work overtime, you don't have to increase the staff for three years."
"There is no recommendation from researchers." Wang Yun pinched it.
"This can be controlled. Even if there is, it should be arranged in next year's budget."
"I will become an assistant researcher one year later, and everything will be one year later in the future. They have made achievements. Why don't they let me become a regular?" Wang Yun spends most of his time working in the national unit. He still speaks in the tone of the national unit, but the meaning is the same. In Dahua Industry, in the most important "special contribution list", seniority is also a very important factor. On the other hand, the concept similar to the Japanese consortium in the same period has the meaning of Dahua Industry. Ten or twenty years later, it officially joined Dahua Industry in 1993 and Dahua Industry in 1994. There may be a huge difference.
The intern standing aside saw that it was an important time to decide whether a group of interns and assistants should eat meat or drink soup. He seized the opportunity and said, "10,000 hours of working time can't take three years, and two years can't be used."
Several people turned their heads to look at him.
The intern broke his finger and said, "The interns we work at least 100 hours a week, generally up to 110 hours. I work six and a half days a week and have accumulated 500 hours a month. Even if I take a month off every year, I can accumulate 11,000 hours of working time in two years. 1,000 hours are used to transfer to assistants, and the remaining 10,000 hours are enough for me to transfer to assistant researchers.
Su Cheng's eyes were straight: "Working 110 hours a week?"
"110 hours is an ordinary level, and there are a lot of people who work 120 hours a week. Look, you sleep inside and outside. You sleep four or five hours a day. Even if you live in the front, you can't bear to go back and waste an hour back and forth.
Wang Yun didn't have time to stop it, and he was finished by the intern. He touched his head in a hurry and said, "I'm not exploiting labor. I'm going to drive people back to rest, and I can't drive them away. At the meeting, he said that he would change the rules and was pushed back again.
Only then did the intern realize that he had said something wrong and said, "We are willing to stay in the laboratory. What's the point of going back to sleep? As long as all the funds for carbon fiber research are used to do experiments, I would rather do experiments to death."
The word "death from overwork" appeared in Su Cheng's mind in an instant, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, the intensity is too high. It must be lowered."
"We'd be happy to."
"I can't do it if I'm happy. It's really tiring. The media is not going to be verbally criticized." Su Cheng insisted: "There are too many 100 hours of working hours a week..."
"What does it have to do with the media? For research and experiment, what is the division of black and white day and night? With such good equipment and such good conditions, if you don't take the time to do research and experiments, isn't that a sin? This time, he spoke from the old man who came out of the opposite mechanical laboratory. Looking at the gray hair, he was at least sixty or seventy years old.
This kind of face is either a retired researcher hired by Dahua, or an old qualification of part-time job. Su Cheng can't order directly, so he has to say gently: "Our Dahua laboratory will only invest more and more, as long as we don't waste equipment, and we can't exhaust people for the sake Yes."
"I think you're saying the opposite. People are not tired. We did the 156 project in those years. Who didn't sleep three or four hours a day? I haven't lived to seventy or eighty. The equipment is different. The equipment is going to be old. This year, it is still a first-class equipment. If you don't use it as soon as possible, it will become a second-rate device next year. The gray-haired old man said, pointed to the assistant and intern on the side, and said, "You can ask these kids who want to go to Tsinghua University of Science and Technology of China. Which one can be exhausted if they don't read 100 hours a week and read 120 hours of books? Do experiments in the laboratory and write experimental reports. Can you be more tired than workers and farmers if you can't get caught in the wind and rain?
Su Cheng was stunned, but he didn't know how to refute it. Explain the relationship between stress and death from overwork? If you argue with the old man who did the Soviet aid project in the 1950s, isn't he looking for a political class?
Yang Mingqing coughed twice and said, "Why don't we ask the interns and assistants what they mean?"
"I didn't like asking them." The old man hummed and said, "The 40- or 50-year-old researcher has to work overtime for three or four hours every day. Does the assistant sleep a lot? What do you want the assistant to do? Come and be the master!"
Yang Ming was anxious: "This old gentleman..."
"This is Professor Du Manchun, who has been a visiting scholar at the Kemnitz University of Technology in Germany for 3 years and has just returned to China." Wang Yun was afraid that he would say something wrong, so he quickly introduced it.
Yang Ming was stunned. This person who has done the 156 project, why did he still return abroad?
The old man waved his hand domineeringly and said, "Don't do those things that worship foreign countries. Why is Germany's industry so powerful? Germans are diligent and willing to work. Whether it is an apprentice in a technical school or a student in the school, there are many people who spend 100 hours a week in factories, libraries and laboratories. If they can do it, why can't we do it? Can we do it?"
"It's done." The loud roar resounded through the corridor.
Only then did several people find that they were already surrounded by researchers and interns. The young interns seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and their faces turned red with excitement. The older researchers also recalled the past years, and their necks were higher than young people.
The old man Du Manchun smiled. He held the door a little and said like a speech again, "Our country is lagging behind. Let's talk about carbon fiber. What a good thing. It's for both military and civilian use. It's light in weight and high strength, but what level do we have? T300 can't be made, and foreign countries have achieved T800. Our country has been lagging behind for more than ten years. Isn't this lost time for us to try our best to catch up? Germans and Japanese work 100 three hours a week, 110 hours. We can only work 120 hours and 130 hours to catch up slowly. Do you think that's the reason? Xiao Su?"
Sucheng has never been called Xiao Su for some days, but at this time, he can only bow his head honestly and say, "Yes."
"That's right." The old man was satisfied and scolded Fang Yu and said, "What are you afraid of? General Ma Ge's shroud. If you can die in the laboratory when doing research, it's also a beautiful talk, right?"
"This... It's still not good to be exhausted. I'm the chairman, and I have to ensure the health of the employees, right?" Su Cheng said carefully. This is Du Manchun's qualifications and retired cadres. If someone else says so, I don't know how many hats I have to be put on.
However, these researchers ate Du Manchun's set and buzzed down by themselves. If they were in a hurry, they directly rolled up their sleeves and continued to go back to do the experiment.
Du Manchun was proud. He knocked on the door with his dark fingers and said with a smile, "Look, this is the opinion of the masses. If you want your employees to be healthy, it's better to buy two more commuter cars and get more hot dishes and hot soup in the canteen, which is better than anything else.
"You're right." Su Cheng nodded honestly and turned around and said, "Yang Ming, you record that you will transfer two commuter cars to the research institute today... Well, let's transfer four cars with eight drivers. For the whole Dahua laboratory, four cars are on duty 24 hours a day, and the car is full, and you can drive to and from the dormitory area and the laboratory."
Yang Ming's pen was flying, and he made a record on the notebook of "Shasha", and a group of people were watching.
Su Cheng thought for a moment and then said, "The canteen has the same policy. I remember that it used to be a 24-hour working system, right?"
"The meals in the evening are relatively simple, because there are fewer people eating, and the impatient dishes will not be cooked, and they are rarely replenished when they are sold out." Yang Ming is the director of the office, but he is very clear about this.
Su Cheng waved his hand and said, "In the past, there were fewer people eating supper, but now there are more young people who work overtime and stay up late, so they have to cook seriously. If you can't stand the dishes, make more soup. If the chef can't, find a few Cantonese chefs.
"Yes."
"The dormitory should strengthen the group's housing policy, include interns and assistants in the group's housing policy, and order the finance department to make a budget." As soon as Su Cheng said this sentence, the interns and assistants cheered. Dahua's housing policy is a parallel way of subsidies and in kind. If you want to live in a dormitory, you can live in a dormitory. If you don't want to live in a dormitory, you can enjoy subsidies. The amount of subsidies is estimated from the average rental price. The They are all wholly-owned companies in Sucheng. He lends the land invested and purchased by Dahua with his left hand, and can continue to buy land with the cash paid by Dahua Industry with his right hand, and can solve the problem of land retention by the way.
For interns and assistants, eating in the canteen, wearing experimental clothes, living in the dormitory, and taking the shuttle bus, the life problems are basically solved.
"I want it." Du Manchun was happy, and his hometown dialect came out. He changed his tongue and said, "That's it. If Wang Xiaozi can't make T300-level carbon fiber, spit on him."
Wang Yun looked bitter: "Uncle..."
There was a burst of laughter around.
Su Cheng was relieved. He touched his neck and sweated. Then he felt the sultry heat on the first floor. After thinking about it, he pulled Yang Ming and said, "In this way, add air conditioners to the buildings of the carbon fiber office. So many people sleep on the floor, and I'm afraid it's very hot at night."
Hearing the word "air conditioner", the people in the carbon fiber station who were talking happily closed their mouths and opened their eyes wide.
Air conditioners in the 1990s were rare. The imported ones cost four or five thousand yuan, and the domestic ones had to be about three thousand yuan. Moreover, at this time, the air conditioners were not easy to install with tickets. They had to pay a thousand yuan installation fee to the power supply bureau. After they sent someone to do the power grid renovation, they
Shang* Hai has always been the city with the highest living standard in China, but in 1993, in order to install an air conditioner in the wedding room, ordinary people inevitably had to mobilize the whole family to get tickets, collect money, find someone to install... An air conditioner used the family's savings of three or five years. It's not surprising. Even so, everyone still queues up to buy it. Summer in the south is too difficult, especially for families with small houses. Even if the air conditioner is turned on for two hours a day, it is extremely comfortable and decent.
It is so troublesome to have an air conditioner at home that the work unit is needless to say. Foreign companies occasionally have air conditioners. National units only provide air conditioners for machines, but few provide air conditioners for people. Including the headquarters building of Dahua Industry, there are only electric fans and no air conditioners.
Yang Ming's head was as big as a bucket, and he whispered, "All three buildings are air-conditioned? What should other research institutes and project teams do?
"If you want anything else, apply for a report, and this time it will be Professor Du Manchun's oral application." Su Cheng stopped for a moment and continued, "Inside Dahua Industry, Dahua Laboratory gives priority to the installation of air conditioners. We must wait for all the installation of Dahua Laboratory before considering Dahua Headquarters..."
With Yang Ming's record, the young people quickly whispered and only heard a sharp voice: "Great, I'll move the bedding tomorrow and roll it over. Do you want to bring a thick quilt? I heard that the air conditioner is very cold.
"Aren't you married? Don't even want your wife?"
"How hot it is to sleep with my wife in my hug..."
