Chapter 270 Someone is trying to make trouble
It was already early December 1983, and Wang Haoran received the official news that day: Beijing Institute of Technology and several ministries of Longguo jointly recommended him as a candidate for academician of Longguo Academy of Sciences.
In fact, he didn't take this matter seriously.
Because being elected as a member of the academic department is just a recognition of his scientific research achievements.
It's only a matter of time.
He now just hopes to make more contributions and make up for the country's shortcomings in related areas as soon as possible, that's all.
However, he also heard a little bit of noise that some people had objections to his election as a member of the academic department.
Those people thought that Wang Haoran was too young, only twenty-five or twenty-six years old, so he should give the opportunity to be elected as a member of the academician to older scientists.
Moreover, there are quite a few people who hold this view.
It is said that some scientists expressed radical opinions during the meeting.
They said that what Wang Haoran was doing was application, not science at all. He did have many achievements, but they had no significance for basic scientific research.
They said that since the candidates were to be elected as academicians of the Academy of Sciences, they should be selected from front-line scientific researchers. Wang Haoran was already a corporate manager, and in this case, participating in the selection of academicians would be squeezing the upward space for ordinary scientific researchers!
They said that the selection of academicians should be based on achievements, but also on seniority and age. How many respected and fruitful old scientists are still waiting in line to join the Academy of Sciences! As a young man with no experience, he should be humble.
In short, there is anything to say.
The one who jumped the highest was He Zuoxiu.
This man, who had been engaged in political work all his life and had almost no scientific research achievements, was able to be elected academician in the past few years by scheming.
He is now the deputy director of the Institute of High Energy Physics.
He published a special article in a magazine.
The title of the article is: I firmly oppose Wang Haoran becoming a candidate for academician.
This article can be said to be directly aimed at Wang Haoran.
The main content of the article is a summary of many objections.
Moreover, at the end of the article, he also advised Wang Haoran: I know that you are engaged in technology, not science, so you should have some self-awareness! You are not a scientist at all, at best you are a technician. Please do not tarnish the sacred name of academician!
Wang Haoran himself doesn't have time to read those useless magazines.
At best, he would read important academic journals and important newspapers.
But the magazine where He Zuoxiu published the article is of a high level and has a great influence, and many people have seen it.
Soon someone gave the magazine to Xiao Lijuan to read.
Xiao Lijuan was very angry after reading it.
She went to find Wang Haoran.
At this time, Wang Haoran was working on the design of the 1130 close-in weapon system.
The 052D destroyer is under construction in full swing at the Shanghai Shipyard.
The hull is almost complete.
After the hull is built, it is time to install the electronic system, power system and weapon system.
These are all being studied by different scientific research institutions.
Of course, Wang Haoran is the final controller.
He also gave a lot of guidance.
It is not possible not to provide guidance, because if you do not point out the direction and methods to solve the problem, other supporting researchers will have to take many detours, which will also affect the time to produce results, right?
According to Wang Haoran’s idea, this first 052D destroyer should reach its peak as soon as it debuts!
它需要安装的武器系统应该包括：H/PJ-45型单管130毫米舰炮、1130近防炮、红旗-10的24单元近程监控防御系统、八联装冷热共架综合吹罚系统、三联装7424型324毫米鱼雷发射器、18管多用途发射器。
The Z-9 anti-submarine helicopter should also be equipped.
With the above weapon systems, the 052D can become an all-round ship for air defense, anti-submarine and anti-ship operations, surpassing the Sovremenny-class destroyers and becoming the backbone of the Dragon Navy.
Of course, ship-borne gas turbines also need to be developed.
Previously, Longguo had planned to import GE's LM2500 gas turbines.
However, the situation changed later and Eagle restricted the export of LM2500 to Longguo.
Therefore, Longguo must now develop its own gas turbines.
There are generally two types of power plants for large ships.
One is a steam turbine, which uses coal to boil water and uses steam to drive the ship.
This method is very old, but the design is relatively simple and the technical content is relatively low.
However, steam turbines take longer to warm up and are not as convenient to use as gas turbines.
Therefore, by the 1960s and 1970s, steam turbines had gradually been eliminated in the world, and gas turbines became popular.
The principle of a gas turbine is actually very similar to that of an aircraft turbofan engine.
However, there are still big differences between the two.
The gas turbine developed under the leadership of Wang Haoran is actually the GAT-25000 developed by Longguo in later generations. Its operating power can reach 6.7 horsepower.
The operating power of LM2500 is only more than 3 horsepower.
Therefore, GAT-25000 is more advanced.
All research is now progressing smoothly.
Wang Haoran hopes that by the time of outfitting in February or March next year, all these equipment will be ready.
Xiao Lijuan hurried in with a magazine and said to Wang Haoran, "Haoran, someone is saying bad things about you again."
“After watching it, I felt so angry!”
Wang Haoran stopped what he was doing and said with a smile, "Don't be angry! As a public figure, it's normal for people to say bad things about you!"
Xiao Lijuan said: "Look at this He Zuoxiu, he has no achievements of his own, but he is still criticizing you."
Wang Haoran took the magazine and glanced through it. He shook his head and said, "There's something wrong."
"This He Zuoxiu is a very smart person who changes his attitude according to the situation."
"He doesn't have to offend me, right?"
Xiao Lijuan said: "Humph! I think he is just jealous of you!"
"Maybe he thinks you're a threat to his position? I can't figure it out."
Wang Haoran smiled and said, "Both basic scientific research and applied scientific research are very important."
"But there are a group of people who do basic scientific research and always think that what they do is science."
"I guess there may be a group of scientists who want to collude and cause trouble."
"Yes! They hope to defeat me by suppressing my admission to the Academy of Sciences."
Xiao Lijuan said: "Those people are so hateful."
"Haoran, what are you going to do?"
Wang Haoran said: "I don't need to fight him myself."
"Someone will refute him."
"You want me to withdraw from the selection of faculty members? No way!"
"I'll just watch how they jump around."
As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
Where there is a world, there is competition.
After all, scientific research resources are limited.
Wang Haoran took up too many resources, which caused dissatisfaction among some people.
To be honest, Wang Haoran has actually led a large number of scientists.
Basically, any scientist who collaborates with him has achieved a lot of results.
But there are still many basic scientists who do not have the opportunity to work with Wang Haoran.
They always feel that the reduction in their funding and the decrease in attention are all Wang Haoran's fault.
These people all have a lot of complaints against Wang Haoran.
This is a classic example of how, if one doesn't make changes and achieve significant results, one ends up taking out all of one's frustration on others.
……
In He Zuoxiu's office, he was drinking tea and flipping through a magazine.
The magazine published the article in which he attacked Wang Haoran.
The magazine exuded the scent of ink, and He Zuoxiu felt that his article was truly wonderfully written.
Only after he sent out this article did he feel a little relieved.
He Zuoxiu had complaints about Wang Haoran.
He had tried to show his goodwill to Wang Haoran several times in the past, hoping to get some benefits from him. However, Wang Haoran never showed any good face to him, was very cold, and even ignored him.
This proud young man made He Zuoxiu angry.
Therefore, he has been looking for an opportunity to take revenge on Wang Haoran.
When it comes to playing pranks on people, He Zuoxiu thinks he is an expert.
He was very good at writing articles to prank people.
Also good at gaining benefits through scheming.
This time, Wang Haoran was elected as a member of the Academy of Sciences at a young age, which once again touched He Zuoxiu's nerves.
Through joint probing, he realized that a considerable number of scientific workers were resentful of Wang Haoran's election as a candidate for academician.
Because Wang Haoran is too young.
Also, he obscured the light of many people who considered themselves outstanding.
Therefore, some people have been trying to teach Wang Haoran a lesson during the selection of academicians.
The selection of academicians is ultimately determined by voting among the academicians.
At least half of the people must vote in favor to be elected.
Not everyone has the right to vote for the Dragon Academy of Sciences. There must be a qualification certification.
If everyone sticks together, there is a high chance that Wang Haoran will be elected.
After He Zuoxiu finished looking at his masterpiece, he was ready to pick up the phone to make a few more calls.
At this moment, the phone on his desk rang.
He Zuoxiu quickly picked up the microphone and put it to his ear.
"Hello! Who are you?" he said.
A stern voice came from the microphone: "What a show! I read your article criticizing Comrade Haoran, and I think what you said is just nonsense!"
"Just tell me about yourself. What are your scientific achievements? Why were you elected as a member of the academic department? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
"Do you want to investigate how you managed to get elected at the selection meeting for faculty members by using connections and gifts?"
"Do you think what you did is really brilliant?"
He Zuoxiu was stunned and a little frightened.
Because he was elected as an academician without going through the formal channels.
He used connections, bribes and gifts to eventually get more than half of the votes, and finally realized his dream of becoming an academician.
In fact, many people know this.
If he is judged by his scientific research achievements, he will never be elected as an academician no matter how hard he tries in his lifetime.
"Who are you?" He Zuoxiu asked.
The other party said: "My last name is Zhao, and I am the person in charge of the Air Force!"
"I really think you are shameless!"
"So, I'm calling to warn you!"
He Zuoxiu was shocked. Air Force chief Zhao Xiansheng?
It must be.
He never dreamed that Zhao Xiansheng would call him.
What does this mean?
This shows that Zhao Xiansheng fully supports Wang Haoran!
With the full support of the troops, there is basically no chance that Wang Haoran will be elected this time.
"Comrade Zhao, I, I just think that Wang Haoran may be too young. There is no need for him to be so anxious to become a member of the academic department."
"I just made a little criticism in the hope that he can get better. I didn't mean any harm."
He Zuoxiu spoke a little timidly.
He understood that the process of his election as a member of the faculty did not stand up to scrutiny.
If someone checked, it would definitely be accurate.
By that time, if he were charged with becoming a faculty member through improper means, the title he had worked so hard to obtain would be ruined.
By then, he would have lost more than just the title of academician!
What he may lose is probably all his reputation and status.
He Zuoxiu shuddered at the thought of this.
Zhao Xiansheng said: "You can take care of yourself!"
"I hope you can play a positive role in the development of our country's scientific research! Instead of causing side effects everywhere!"
Zhao Xiansheng hung up the phone after he finished speaking.
As soon as He Zuoxiu put down the microphone, he felt terrible.
He couldn't understand. Didn't I just criticize Wang Haoran?
You, the head of the Air Force, actually called me personally to threaten me?
He is a bit overwhelmed.
However, he also understood that he would not be able to trip up Wang Haoran this time.
However, if you ask him to apologize to Wang Haoran, he will feel ashamed.
In this way, He Zuoxiu was troubled until the evening.
When I was about to get off work, a reporter from CCTV called me.
"Teacher He, I would like to interview you about the article in which you criticized Comrade Haoran. Is that ok?"
He Zuoxiu was upset and said unhappily, "What's there to interview?"
"I just said a few more words for Wang Haoran's better growth."
The reporter said: "However, many scientific researchers have called our station to complain about you, saying that your motives are not pure, that you are a scientific slacker, that you have accomplished nothing in your life except writing a few inexplicable theoretical articles, but you were strangely elected as an academician."
“Do you agree with the evaluation given to you by your peers?”
"Well, here are the titles of some of your articles..."
The reporter mentioned the titles of the articles written by He Zuoxiu in his early years, which were basically a hodgepodge of combining a principle of physics with flattering articles.
Such a paper is a joke.
He Zuoxiu was very angry and said, "What does this mean? Are you going to criticize me?"
"I just said a few words for justice, are you going to torture me to death?"
The reporter laughed and said, "Teacher He, what you said seems to be just a discussion with you, right?"
"Also, can you tell me in detail how you were elected as a member of the faculty? Some people say that you got elected through the backdoor, is that true?"
He Zuoxiu felt numb all over.
Obviously, the reporter was setting a trap for him.
How do you want him to answer this question?
"Of course, I was elected as a member of the faculty based on my achievements!"
"You must not slander me like this!"
"Well! Teacher Yu and I worked together to develop the Yumin structure of the hydrogen bomb! Isn't this achievement great enough?"
In desperation, He Zuoxiu began to take credit for himself.
The reporter smiled and said, "Really? Then should I go and verify this with Teacher Yu?"
"Also, your name isn't on Teacher Yu's work, right?"
Teacher Yu Min was only in his 60s at that time and was considered a great authority in the country.
People like He Zuoxiu can only be considered speculators.
He Zuoxiu remained silent.
Of course he knew that it was shameless for him to say that he and Yu Min had developed the hydrogen bomb together!
All in all, this interview was unpleasant.
On the evening of that day, He Zuoxiu suffered another heavy blow: CCTV Science Channel broadcast a special report about the article in which he criticized Wang Haoran!
More than a dozen leading scientists appeared in this special topic. They all believed that the views in He Zuoxiu's article were outdated and that seniority should never be used to determine the winners in the field of scientific research. Wang Haoran had made unprecedented contributions in the field of scientific research. How could he be sidelined just because he was young?
Another point is: basic science and applied science are mutually reinforcing, how can we separate them? This is a full manifestation of the lack of scientific spirit.
In short, He Zuoxiu was severely criticized.
The next day, He Zuoxiu was investigated by the relevant disciplinary department of the Academy of Sciences.
Because many people reported that He Zuoxiu embezzled scientific research funds and seized the scientific research results of young people for himself...
He Zuoxiu is going crazy.
