Chapter 2338 Solar Cell Project

In the conference room, there was silence as Yang Xiaotao asked the question.

Li Hongfeng sat in the same place, looking calm and composed.

He is not good at this kind of thing, he just needs to understand it.

Yang Xiaotao picked up the water cup. Old Song took a look and then said with a smile, "This computer research requires high-purity silicon to make semiconductors. You can make high-purity silicon, which means you are ahead of the curve."

"So in our cooperation, you are responsible for providing high-purity silicon."

"Of course, we at the Chinese Academy of Sciences will not take advantage of you. This cooperation will bring out our experience in computer research, and we will study together."

"it is good."

Yang Xiaotao put down the cup with a smile.

For Yang Xiaotao, being able to use high-purity silicon to gain experience in computer research is a no-cost business.

Even though no one has yet fully mastered the extraction process of high-purity silicon, that's because time is too tight. If they are given enough time, they will definitely be able to do it.

"Then I'll let Dean Han hand it over to you."

"From now on, the high-purity silicon produced will be divided between the two companies, and each of them will get half."

Hearing Yang Xiaotao say this, Mr. Song nodded immediately.

"Thank you very much."

"No, no, we should thank you."

The two of them exchanged pleasantries and then talked about the calculator.

"Your starlight calculator is very well designed. We can save a lot of trouble by using it."

"By the way, some of our comrades want to continue research and development. I wonder if you have any plans in this regard."

Yang Xiaotao nodded slightly, "We really do have it."

"The current calculators are only elementary. We will research calculators with more functions in the future, and also add storage functions."

Yang Xiaotao talked about the subsequent research and development direction of the calculator, and Mr. Song nodded.

"If you need anything, we can also cooperate and communicate in this regard."

Hearing what Mr. Song said, Yang Xiaotao was of course happy. After all, Wang Kun and Liu Yongqiang were still too young, and more communication and learning would help them improve themselves.

"Then we won't be polite. Please don't refuse to let us in when the time comes."

"You kid, you said this to Lao Qian and the others back then, right?"

Yang Xiaotao smiled and said, "No, Teacher Qian doesn't care about these things."

"Mr. Wang has some, haha."

"Old Wang, he doesn't suffer any loss."

Song Lao said, and then he laughed, "But he suffered a great loss this time."

"Such an important research project in computers was given to you, tsk tsk."

"I really don't know whether to say he is generous or, stupid!"

After hearing this, Yang Xiaotao quickly lowered his head. Could he say that this was originally a dowry for Mr. Qian?
No!

Therefore, let Mr. Wang take the blame for this matter.

A sneeze
Mr. Wang, who was far away in the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building, kept sneezing and complained to Mr. Qian that he should not have handed it over to the Ninth Ministry in the first place.

"Okay, our cooperation is settled. I hope we can improve the computer as soon as possible and complete the task assigned by our superiors."

"Of course. If we work together, it will be even more powerful."

In the evening, Yang Xiaotao hosted a banquet at home for Ran's family as a farewell to Comrade Lao Jin and Ms. Cui.

There were two tables at home, one for men and one for women.

At the table in the east room, in addition to Yang Xiaotao, Lao Jin, and Ran's father, there was also the grandfather who came specially, Yang Dazhuang, the old Taoist priest, Old Ye, and Yu Zecheng who had just returned a few days ago.

Several people gathered together and toasted Lao Jin from time to time, which was a great honor for him.

After dinner, we made a pot of tea and started chatting.

Sometimes we talk about work, sometimes about interesting things in life, and sometimes about recent developments.

"Xiao Tao, how is the production of your calculator?"

Father Ran put down his teacup, pinched the peanuts and asked.

"Tianjin is debugging the equipment and it is estimated that it will be officially put into production in half a month."

"We can still make some here, but the quantity is not large."

Yang Xiaotao was talking while eating sunflower seeds. Ran's father looked over and asked, "Can you arrange a few for us?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaotao smiled bitterly.

"Dad, it's not that we don't want to give it to you, it's that we made it ourselves and we can't keep it!"

"What's wrong?"

Yang Xiaotao shook his head. "They were all collected. We didn't even have any to keep as souvenirs."

Father Ran was surprised, then he thought of something and nodded, "Then when it goes into production, give us more."

"no problem."

After Yang Xiaotao agreed, Mr. Ye said, "Xiaotao, I found a few people, but none of them were satisfactory."

When Mr. Ye spoke, Father Ran immediately became serious and wanted to hear what was going on.

At this time Duanwu ran over with a bag of melon seeds in his hand. Yang Xiaotao took it and put it on the table. Lao Jin took the opportunity to hug him and poked his little face with his beard.

Yang Xiaotao didn't care, "What kind of person do you want?"

Mr. Ye said, "First, it has a foundation in chemical research."

“Second, you need to understand the materials.”

"The final step is to be able to process crystalline silicon."

"With these three types of people, there must also be someone who can lead them."

Yang Xiaotao frowned, "The first three are fine, we can just recruit them from a few research institutes."

"As for the last one, the right person has a mission, so it's hard to find."

Ye Lao nodded, "I think so too."

"So I'll just leave it to you to figure out a solution."

Yang Xiaotao thought about it carefully, and Ran's father next to him understood what they were going to do.

He had learned about solar cells from Mr. Qian. They use sunlight to charge and convert light energy into usable electrical energy.

When I first heard the news, my first impression was that Yang Xiaotao must want to save electricity by watching TV.

Of course, if this thing is made, it will definitely be a good thing that benefits the country and the people.

Sunlight is free.

Hearing what Mr. Ye said, Father Ran whispered, "Isn't this ready-made?"

After listening to this, Mr. Ye looked over, and then he saw Ran's father said, "Let Xiao Tao lead the team." "He doesn't have any projects anyway."

After hearing what Father Ran said, Yang Xiaotao was about to open his mouth to refute, but Old Man Ye just laughed.

"You're right, I actually forgot the most suitable person."

"Xiao Tao, you are the most suitable person to use this solar cell."

Yang Xiaotao was speechless. Although he didn't have any projects, he still had a lot of things to do.

Nowadays, the time spent reading has been reduced by more than half.

But since Mr. Ye said so, Yang Xiaotao really couldn't refuse.

Besides, he is just a leader, and what the people below do is still up to Mr. Ye.

Specifically, it's just a name.

"Okay, then I'll just put my name on it. If there are any problems or difficulties, I'll come forward to solve them."

Mr. Ye agreed immediately.

With Yang Xiaotao around, it is impossible for the people below not to try their best.

After they finished talking, they started talking about the development prospects of high-purity silicon.

Originally, Yang Xiaotao wanted to talk about the development of optical fiber, but when he thought about the current situation, he decided to give up.

He didn't want to find work for himself.

Even so, Ran's father, Mr. Ye, was very interested in the extraction of high-purity silicon and its application in semiconductors.

Although Lao Dao, Lao Jin and Yu Zecheng did not understand, they also felt that this was a very meaningful thing.

Everyone chatted until after ten o'clock, and then Yang Xiaotao drove his father-in-law and his family back home.

In the car, Ran Xinrui suddenly leaned over Yang Xiaotao's seat and said, "Brother-in-law, do you need anyone else in the Ninth Division?"

In the passenger seat, Ran's father was feeling a little sleepy, but he immediately became alert when he heard this.

Yang Xiaotao didn't notice anything strange about Ran's father and said, "It depends on who you want."

Ran Xinrui immediately spoke up after hearing this, "Brother-in-law, do you think I can do it? I have been a three-good student in school for many years. Now that I don't have many classes in school, I want to work for you."

After saying this, without Yang Xiaotao having to speak, the co-pilot's father Ran said, "Xinrui, there's no rush for work. Finish your studies first, and it's best if you can get into college, so that you can better contribute to the revolution."

Ran Xinrui lowered her head after hearing this, and then said, "I want to make money quickly."

"The little guy in the village made a calculator for my brother-in-law, but he was rewarded with 100 yuan."

Father Ran was originally going to try to persuade him, but when he heard this, he was suddenly speechless.

cough cough.

Seeing that his father-in-law didn't know what to say, Yang Xiaotao coughed lightly and then said, "Talk to your sister about this. If she agrees, I have no objection."

Hearing Yang Xiaotao say this, Ran Qiuye's figure appeared in Ran Xinrui's mind, and she immediately lost her confidence.

He sat down on the chair, looking depressed.

When Ran's father saw this, he felt relieved.

In fact, he had no objection to his second son wanting to work and do an internship. After all, many schools are unable to hold classes normally now.

It would be a good idea to let the second child go to the factory for some trial.

But what he wanted was to let the second child go to the seventh grade department and teach him personally.

But if this goes to the Ninth Ministry of Machinery, this.
I always feel a little embarrassed.

The car stopped, Ran's father carried Ran Hongjun out of the car, Ran's mother supported him on the side, and Ran Xinrui walked away in a depressed mood.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaotao took two steps back and whispered, "Tell your sister that the school requires you to go to the countryside."

After hearing this, Ran Xinrui's eyes lit up, and then she nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and gave Yang Xiaotao a thumbs up.

"Let's go, Mom and Dad!"

"Well, slow down on the road."

Ran's mother shouted at the side, and Yang Xiaotao nodded and left.

The next day, Yang Xiaotao sent Comrade Lao Jin and Ms. Cui to the train station early in the morning, personally helped them to the train, and then returned to Department 9.

Then I called my aunt Jin Pingping in Shanghai, told her the arrival time, and asked her to be ready to pick me up.

Jin Pingping wrote down the time and asked about Ran Qiuye's due date. The two chatted for a long time before ending the call.

In the afternoon, when the work was finished, Mr. Ye called Yang Xiaotao to the office next door.

When Yang Xiaotao walked in, he saw that in addition to Mr. Ye there were four other people, two men and two women. They applauded as soon as they saw him.

"Xiao Yang, these four are the members of our solar cell research team."

As Mr. Ye was speaking, Yang Xiaotao looked at the four people and found that one of them was indeed an acquaintance.

"You guys, please introduce yourselves quickly. Xiao Yang will be your team leader from now on."

After hearing what Mr. Ye said, everyone became nervous, but at the same time they also gained more confidence in the solar cell project.

This is Yang Bu. There is nothing that cannot be accomplished as long as he is involved in the project.

"Bu Yang, my name is Xu Hua."

"I studied chemistry and previously studied under Professor Wang Guangmei."

The older young man spoke first, and Yang Xiaotao nodded, "Xu Hua, you published a paper on oxygen catalysts, I remember you."

Xu Hua was very excited when he heard Yang Xiaotao say this.

"Thank you, Yang Bu."

"polite."

"Director Yang, my name is Liu Hao, and I'm studying basic physics."

"I came from the Computer Research Center."

"Okay, how about optics and electronics?"

Liu Hao scratched his head and smiled, "I have some knowledge of it, but no, I'm not very good at it."

"It's okay. If you don't know, just ask Master Ye for advice. You should thank Master Ye for choosing you. He has brought up a lot of experts."

"If you take him as your master, it will not only be an honor, but you will also be our junior uncle."

Yang Xiaotao was joking and everyone was laughing.

Mr. Ye smiled even more happily.

This harmonious atmosphere is the best R&D environment.

Then two girls introduced their names. One was Wang Li and the other was Zhao Yan. Like Liu Hao, they both studied physics.

The four people met with Yang Xiaotao, which marked the official establishment of the solar cell research group.

As a technical consultant, Mr. Ye holds an independent position in the team.

The four of them also knew that Yang Xiaotao was busy with work, so he would not be here for too long, so this arrangement was understandable.

However, as long as Yang Xiaotao is involved, they will be content.
