From failed candidate to chief scientist

Chapter 88 Preventing troubles before they happen

"Leader, we have worked hard on research, but it is not worth a few words from others. It's okay if we don't do this research..."

"That's not what I mean, but..."

"The leader, did you promise to support us?"

"Ah, this..."

Qi Zhenhai was a little speechless.

Because the previous support for the Mathematics Research Center has made many people in the school jealous and swayed the interests of many people. If it tilts towards the Mathematics Research Center again, Qi Zhenhai is afraid that he will not be able to hold the position of principal.

Although the Mathematics Research Center can produce results and suppress those different voices, who can guarantee that the Mathematics Research Center can always produce results?

Tian Fangyi could trust Lin Mo unconditionally, but Qi Zhenhai was not Tian Fangyi, and he could not do what Tian Fangyi did.

Therefore, under the current situation, Qi Zhenhai really cannot provide more support to the Mathematics Research Center.

"Leader, since the school can't support us, it's okay for our mathematics research center to find funds and projects by ourselves?"

Tian Fangyi finally came to his senses and revealed his true request for coming to Qi Zhenhai today.

The reason why Tian Fangyi came to Qi Zhenhai today to sing such a song certainly had his purpose.

Tian Fangyi has heard a lot of rumors about the Mathematics Research Center recently. He has realized that the Mathematics Research Center has seized other people's resources, gained other people's interests, and been targeted by many jealous people. This has put the Mathematics Research Center in a difficult position. On the cusp of the storm.

The reason why the Mathematics Research Center is fine is because the achievements made by the Mathematics Research Center make those jealous people have scruples.

But who can guarantee that those jealous people can endure it forever?

Moreover, because of the bounty on Kratz's conjecture, the Mathematics Research Center is about to receive a large amount of funds, which is close to 500 million yuan. The money is very exciting. Faced with such benefits, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will have other ideas.

It's hard to say whether the money will still fall on the Mathematics Research Center by then.

At that time, the school will say that the project is solved with funds provided by the school, so all the rewards should be handed over. At that time, will you hand it over or not?
pay?That's 500 million yuan, how many research projects can be carried out?Even if money is just a number, there is no reason to give it away.

Not paying?How could your mathematics research center get such a high reward without the help of the school?Now I ask you to repay the school, but you resist?What does your mathematics research center want to do?What do you, Tian Fangyi, want to do?
Tian Fangyi can imagine what he will face by then.

As for the final outcome of the matter, there is a high probability that he will be dismissed and replaced by someone else as the director of the Mathematics Research Center. By then, it is hard to say what will happen to the Mathematics Research Center.

It is still unclear whether Lin Mo can still concentrate on his research and whether he can continue to stay at Dongshan University.

For Lin Mo, with Lin Mo's ability, there are many places to go after leaving Dongshan University. Donghai University and Shuimu University have opened their doors to each other.

But without Lin Mo at Dongshan University, it would definitely be a huge loss.

Tian Fangyi didn't want to see such a scene.

In Tian Fangyi's heart, Lin Mo is the hope for the rise of the Department of Mathematics of Dongshan University and the savior of the Department of Mathematics of Dongshan University.

Therefore, Tian Fangyi must eliminate this problem in advance and fight with the school to clear obstacles for the Mathematics Research Center, obtain more research funds for the Mathematics Research Center, and provide Lin Mo with a safe research environment.

Therefore, doing academic work is not only about immersing yourself in research, but also about being sociable.

"This one……"

Qi Zhenhai hesitated for a moment, and then he realized what Tian Fangyi's purpose was today.

Tian Fangyi wanted the autonomy of the mathematics research center.

"What? The school can't give us research resource support, and it doesn't allow us to find resources ourselves? Then what's the point of staying at this school? You know, Donghai University, Shuimu University, but..."

Tian Fang pressed forward step by step.

"Old Tian, ​​tell me frankly, what do you want to do?"

Qi Zhenhai realized that Tian Fangyi seemed to be here to announce good news to him today, but in fact he came with bad intentions, and he couldn't help but sigh deeply.Qi Zhenhai knows Tian Fangyi very well, just as Tian Fangyi also knows Qi Zhenhai very well, otherwise Qi Zhenhai would not be so passive and be controlled by Tian Fangyi.

Qi Zhenhai simply looked at Tian Fangyi and spoke frankly to Tian Fangyi.

"Old Tian, ​​tell me your conditions."

"I want financial autonomy. All funds of the Mathematics Research Center are at the discretion of the Mathematics Research Center, and the school is not allowed to interfere."

"Also, personnel have autonomy. The Mathematics Research Center has the right to freely hire its personnel, and the school is not allowed to interfere."

"As well as the right to ownership of the results, all research results of the Mathematics Research Center belong to the Mathematics Research Center."

Every time Tian Fang said something, Qi Zhenhai's face turned uglier.

What is Tian Fangyi doing?This is about making the Mathematical Research Center independent of the school!
The rights of people, property, and property belong exclusively to the Mathematics Research Center, so apart from the superficial affiliation, the school does not have any actual jurisdiction.

"Impossible! Tian Fangyi, what do you want to do?"

"Principal, don't be too busy refusing."

Tian Fang smiled and shook his head.

"Principal, you have also seen the results of our Mathematics Research Center. We have continuously brought reputation to the school. I guess you can hold your head high when you go out for meetings these days? If it were before, haha."

Qi Zhenhai's face darkened.

"In the future, if the Mathematics Research Center generates income, do you think someone will ask the Mathematics Research Center to hand over the income on the grounds of reporting to the school? Will you see that the Mathematics Research Center has good benefits and high income, and put someone in today and tomorrow? A leader, dictating the center? Wouldn’t anyone be jealous of the center’s achievements and sell them for money?”

"When they find you, the principal, will you agree or not?"

Qi Zhenhai's expression changed slightly.

What Tian Fangyi said is very likely to happen.

"Principal, you don't want to see the Mathematics Research Center with no output in the future. Like other laboratories and research centers in the school, it will become a burden with low efficiency and no output, right? At that time, you can go out for meetings... …”

"So, instead of embarrassing you, principal, why not give all our efforts to the Mathematics Research Center and let me help you, principal, share the pressure."

"When the time comes, the Mathematics Research Center can still maintain its output and bring honor to the school. It can also be considered that you are running the school well. Maybe you can move up the ranks?"

"So I have to thank you?"

Qi Zhenhai teased.

However, Tian Fangyi's words really touched Qi Zhenhai's heartstrings.

"You want to be like the National Key Laboratory!"

Qi Zhenhai couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

This is generally the case for state key laboratories, which have great independence. Funding, results, and personnel rights are all decided by the laboratory, and the school has limited intervention in them.

This is also the reason why Fu Mingli was able to offer such outrageous conditions to Zhang Qihua.

Tian Fang nodded. If the requirements for applying to the National Key Laboratory were not too high and the time and process required were long and difficult to achieve in a short period of time, Tian Fang would have applied directly instead of gossiping with Qi Zhenhai.

“Can you guarantee that the math center will continue to produce as much as it does now?”

"Don't worry, principal, as long as you ensure the independence of the center, I can guarantee that you will receive the results you want."

"Okay, I will propose it to the school committee, but whether it can be passed or not is not decided by me alone."

Hearing this, Tian Fang smiled, knowing that Qi Zhenhai agreed.

The Mathematics Research Center is now gaining momentum, and there is also the good news of proving Kakeya's conjecture. Under this general trend, Qi Zhenhai is on the school committee, what else is it?
