"The current scientific research field in our country is also in this linear model. Enterprise research institutions pay more attention to applied research, while universities and research institutes pay more attention to basic research. The two are separated from each other and cannot form a joint force.

Stokes transformed this linear model into a plane quadrant model, placing science and technology in a symbiotic relationship, thus forming three quadrants.”

Everyone listened with relish, especially Guo Huiguang, a little fan of Guo Konghui, had little stars in his eyes.

Guo Konghui poured some tea on the table, then dipped his fingers in tea and drew a grid of "field" on the table.

"The quadrant in the upper left corner is a field dominated by purely basic research, called the Bohr quadrant. It does not consider the actual use of the research and is only guided by cognitive needs, such as string theory.

After World War II, the United States regarded pure basic research as a necessary prerequisite for technological innovation, putting basic research in a relatively stable front position and investing huge funds in basic science.

The United States has received fruitful returns. From 1956 to 1987, 13 corporate scientists won the Nobel Prize. Note that they are corporate scientists.

Some research directions of the Institute of Mathematics, Institute of Physics, and Institute of Chemistry of Vision Research Center also belong to the Bohr Quadrant.

Therefore, Huiguang, the Vision Research Center does not focus only on immediate interests as you said.”

Guo Huiguang secretly glanced at Fu Song, and happened to face him. He quickly stuck out his tongue and made a grimace.

"The quadrant in the lower right corner is the other extreme, dominated by research for application purposes. Application research does not focus on basic understanding of nature and system understanding, but only considers and solves the current problems from the perspective of profit.

The most typical example is Edison's research on electric lighting, so this quadrant is named after Edison.

The Bohr Quadrant and the Edison Quadrant can be partially placed into the linear model, but there are also overlapping parts between them, which is the phenomenon in the upper right corner.

The research activities in this quadrant are also influenced by practical purposes while seeking to expand the boundaries of cognition. Combined with Pasteur's deeds, this quadrant is also called the Pasteur Quadrant.

The most typical example of this quadrant is the American Bell Laboratory. The interaction between science and technology, theory and application is cyclically interacting, thus forming a benign positive feedback."

Fu Song looked at the dog drawing on the table, touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Professor Guo, what you mean is that Pasteur's model is the best?"

Guo Konghui said unanimously: "After World War II, the United States' scientific research was mainly in the Bohr quadrant. However, just as Americans were complacent about this, they suddenly discovered that Japanese benzene companies such as Panasonic, Sony, and Toyota were gradually seizing the global home appliance, electronics and automobile markets.

The reason is that when corporate laboratories operate in an academic model, it is difficult to take into account the development and production and manufacturing work related to basic research, and scientific research results cannot be quickly converted into technological innovation products, resulting in the inability to meet market demand and thus losing competitive advantages.

Although the basic research capabilities of Asian companies are weaker, their R&D efficiency is higher. They are especially good at using existing basic research results from the United States, especially from the United States, to transform them into advanced technologies and develop high-quality products."

Fu Songben was complacent about the scientific research model of the Vision Research Center. According to his design, the Vision Research Center regards basic research as the top priority, and the importance of applied research is ranked behind.

In his inherent concept, one of the biggest problems in China's scientific research is that it is too eager for quick success and instant benefits.

Ordinary people think that basic science seems to be very far from life and seems to be of no practical use.

Most scientific researchers only study it for the purpose of publishing (producing) papers (simple) papers. As long as they can publish papers to complete the assessment and get a professional title, the process is not important at all.

Therefore, the use of the Chinese scientific research community is prevalent.

If there are any new concepts and methods abroad, you can change the picture and you can write a paper.

For example, the serious woman who was single in her forties, Yan Ning, who was known as the academic goddess, published countless high-level papers, but in fact, her solution structure was not innovative in terms of method principles, and the electron microscope technology she used was not invented by her, and she could not make any contribution to scientific research ideas.

Her scientific research model is to find a new object, a, and use an electron microscope that spent a lot of foreign exchange to solve its structure for the first time, s.

Next time, find a new object b, solve the structure, publish a paper, and repeat it. As long as there are new objects and take the lead in solving the structure, you can publish an article.

What is the use of such repetitive scientific research? It is simply a waste of taxpayers’ money!

Such a person wants to be an academician? Get out of here!

Of course, the utilitarian nature of scientific research cannot be blamed for researchers. When the entire society is utilitarian, requiring scientific research not to be utilitarian is to be a hooligan.

From the allocation of R&D subsidies, the management of research institutions, to the R&D of enterprises, there are everywhere assessment indicators related to money.

If you are going to hold up a big move and put a big satellite, I'm sorry, what you are waiting for may be a shortage of R&D funds, either rising or leaving, optimization at the age of 35, elimination at the last place, and a quality of life that is far below the social average for a long time.

Even if you are so miserable, someone will secretly change your results to the administrator and report them to the author.

In fact, it is normal to consider returns when R&D goals. After all, biological activities are profit-seeking, but domestic scientific research is serious, and vicious competition is vicious, and unethical competition is common. In the social atmosphere of bad money driving out good money, they naturally tend to engage in directions that are difficult, fast and high.

It is precisely because of knowing these problems that Fu Song wanted to establish a scientific research management system that he thought was more reasonable in the Vision Research Center.

But after hearing Guo Konghui's words, Fu Song had to admit that his views were not unreasonable.

Basic research and applied research should be the relationship between Tao and art.

Basic research is Tao, the root of a big tree, while applied research is technique, the trunk of a big tree.

Without basic research as support, applied research is a tree without roots and water without source.

However, without the profits brought by applied research, basic research will not grow into a towering tree forever, or even die in the womb.

"In the past two years after the end of the Cold War, the U.S. government has significantly reduced its investment in basic research. Bell Labs Vice President and Nobel Prize winner Penzias announced that it would end the "Bolster Quadrant Research Trend" of Bell Labs as early as 1990 before the end of the Cold War.

On the one hand, he significantly reduced funds in the field of basic science, with a reduction rate of 8%. On the other hand, he removed all scientific research laboratories and turned most of his research resources to the software field.

Bell Labs is famous for its research on physics, and has obtained thousands of patents and has successively produced 11 Nobel Prize-level scientific masters.

Before that, scientists at Bell Labs could rest as much as they were on campus, and they only needed to pay attention to publishing scientific papers, but now they had to worry about the livelihood of the company like ordinary employees."

"The landlords have no spares!" Fu Songxin was worried. Although he was rich, the funds he invested in scientific research in the past two years also made him frightened. And after investing so much money, he didn't even splash.

"When I was in the United States in the first half of the year, I learned about the situation at Bell Labs, which is similar to what you said.

Before the Penzias reform, most of the laboratories in Bell Laboratory conducted free research, and each department set up a separate small research plan.

After the reform, each department is required to have core research and development capabilities in specific fields so that Bell Labs can make more contributions and provide better services to all business departments of the company as a whole.

He also asked the laboratory to adjust its research direction and strengthen the cooperative relationship between research institutions and company business departments and company customers.

Now Bell Labs no longer studies science for science, but instead seeks a balance between the actual goals of the business operations and its long-term goals.”

Guo Konghui nodded and said, "The Cold War is over. Without the covetous eyes of the Soviets, the Americans are a little lazy.

Bell Labs is just the beginning. I am sure that the future life of American corporate research institutions will definitely be Wang Xiaoer’s New Year, and every year is worse than that.

Domestic research institutions are facing transformation in the market economy, and the same is true in the United States. Many researchers either transform or leave."

Fu Song felt aroused and said with a smile: "Professor Guo, I am worried that there are too many Russians in the Vision Research Center. If your prediction can come true, I will go to European and American countries to find a bargain."

"Americans are not cheap, you have to be prepared for heavy bleeding." Guo Konghui joked, which made everyone laugh.

Fu Song asked: "Professor Guo, what do you mean is that the current scientific research model of Vision Research Center is not advisable? Should we change from focusing on basic research to focusing on applied research like Bell Laboratory?"

Guo Konghui said: "In fact, no one can draw a clear boundary between basic research and applied research. They are the dynamic relationship between you and me and I. This is the essence of the Pasteur quadrant.

If we have to distinguish them, we will fall into the linear pattern of innovation. Basic research is followed by applied research, which will eventually become innovation after development.

The Vision Research Center now gathers a group of outstanding scientists from various fields, but how to maximize the effectiveness of these scientists and find the best balance between science and technology is a major topic that needs to be studied urgently.

The reason why Bell Labs achieved great success in the past is that it handles the relationship between short-term research and long-term research, basic research and applied research very well.

Today, Bell Labs has begun to focus more on matching market demand, and at the same time, it has also retained a group of scientists to conduct long-term basic research.

It is difficult for me to judge which of these two models is better or worse, but I personally think that the latter model is more suitable for the Vision Research Center at the moment of rapid economic development."

Fu Song smiled bitterly and said, "I understand. You are calling me a bad chess game, and you are playing good cards so badly."

Guo Konghui quickly waved his hand and said, "No! After all, the Vision Research Center has only been established for less than two years. It is quite unexpected to achieve the current results."

Fu Song laughed at himself: "I always thought that as long as I use money to pile up the laboratories and establish the system, I could rest assured. I didn't expect that scientific research is not as simple as I imagined, at least it's not enough to spend money."

Guo Konghui said: "Scientific research also needs to be methodological, and even to be elevated to the level of philosophy. Only then can we establish and improve systems and mechanisms, and finally, people and money.

After all, people and money are visible and tangible things, but they are the simplest and easiest part.

Marx said that commodities to currency is a thrilling jump. This sentence also applies to the Enterprise Research Institute. What the Vision Research Center will cross in the future is the 'Gao of Death' between theoretical research, laboratory samples and industrialization."

"Listen to your words is better than reading for ten years!" After Fu Song sighed, he suddenly smiled again: "Professor Guo, I feel very conflicted now!"

Guo Konghui said curiously: "What's the contradiction?"

Fu Song looked at him with a look of Qihuoke: "I originally wanted to invite you to Muqi Group to take charge of the overall situation, but now I want to invite you to the research center, so I'm in a dilemma!"

Guo Huiguang burst out laughing and slapped, saying, "Uncle Fu, what's the point of making things difficult for this? Fish, I want it; bear's paw, I want it. My elder brother is so capable, I can take care of both ends!"

"Nothing!" Guo Henian scolded with a tiger face, but he praised Guo Huiguang in his heart.

The children of the old Guo family

"Of course!" Fu Song beat the snake and followed the stick, "Professor Guo, if you agree, I will issue you a letter of employment now!"

"This... haha, Mr. Fu, you are really good at joking." Guo Konghui said, "The Vision Research Center is full of talents, I am an unknown person, so I won't be embarrassed."

This is not because he is humble, but because he is indeed not qualified enough to convince the public.

What's more, he is more willing to go to Muqi Group to build cars than to go to the research center to do research, but it is really not easy to make up this decision.

On one hand is the vice president of Jilin University, and on the other hand is the automobile manufacturer.

When you go to Jilin University of Technology, you can teach and educate people while doing automobile research and development. Moreover, there is also a national key laboratory he has won over in Changchun.

Going to Muqi Group can apply what you have learned throughout your life to practice and realize your ideal of serving the country in your industry. Moreover, you can also teach and educate people and engage in research and development at Muqi Group.

If 99% of the balance in his heart tends to stay in Changchun before coming to Mucheng, then at this moment, 90% of the balance in his heart tends to stay in Mucheng.

As for the remaining 10%, it is not because I can’t bear to leave the position of vice president of Jilin University.

Of course, the vice president is important. He is not so noble that he regards fame and fortune as dirt, but his experience over the past few decades tells him that it is good enough to be famous, and if there are too many, he will be unworthy of his position.

The only thing he was worried about, or what made him confused, was the National Key Laboratory for Dynamic Simulation of Automobile under construction.

During the construction of this laboratory, he was responsible for the development of a large-scale development car driving simulator, which is the most important of all tasks.

If he leaves now, wouldn't he be a deserter?

In the 1960s and 1970s, he did not become a deserter even in such a difficult and desperate situation, and now it is even more impossible to become a deserter.

Therefore, although he was very interested in Muqi Group, he still hoped to start and end well, at least after building the laboratory, he would give an explanation to the country, local governments, and schools.
