Official career: From director to secretary, I want to improve myself

Chapter 258: Wall-Facing Plan! Professor Shen’s Excitement!

Jiang Yuan didn't expect that there was such a secret. That person was really something. He had the ability to do research, so why didn't he do it instead of doing this kind of thing? He deserved to be arrested.

"What to do with them next?"

"Maximize the sentence, impose strict and severe punishment! If we don't kill a few people and sacrifice a few heads, we won't be able to suppress this evil trend!"

Professor Shen said in a deep voice.

He studied law, wandered on the fringes of officialdom for decades, and wrote many advisory documents to the upper echelons.

The decisiveness in killing was developed long ago!

Although I am old, my heart is still warm, but this warmth is for this country, not for those parasites.

"Teacher, perhaps our research and academic communities can work together with relevant government departments to establish an audit system. Previous audits were ineffective because the auditors were financial professionals, not researchers. They are easily fooled when it comes to research."

"The newly established audit system, for example, for key state-funded projects, should coordinate with high-level experts with advanced theoretical knowledge to conduct audits, if possible. If possible, some academicians from the projects should also be involved in reviewing the materials. This should prevent a lot of academic corruption."

"However, beyond this, departments in charge of science and technology and institutions like the Academy of Sciences should also develop a research plan. Include key projects and cutting-edge technologies that must be pursued regardless of the investment. For example, semiconductor chips, batteries for energy, quantum communications for communications, new materials, and supercomputers."

"These are things that can influence the future frontier and the world's technological landscape."

Jiang Yuan took this opportunity to tell Professor Shen about his ideas.

"Chips, batteries, quantum communications, supercomputers? Okay, I've got that in mind, but I need to ask other academicians in related fields for their opinions. And if we're really going to implement your plan, we need to select the right people. They have to be loyal and reliable, and have strong scientific research capabilities or the ability to lead a scientific research team. Such talent is rare."

"Your plan is similar to the 86 plan, but it's a reckless investment. The higher-ups need to conduct research and solicit opinions from many parties. It's definitely too early! However, if the academicians I've consulted agree, I'll contact some friends and submit our proposal to the higher-ups."

Professor Shen nodded in agreement. Even though he was working in the humanities and social sciences, he still had a deep understanding of the importance of research in energy, communications, and materials.

These are the foundations that affect national economy, people's livelihood and science and technology.

It’s really good that Jiang Yuan was able to say it and come up with such a plan.

Although he is an official, his vision is not limited to his department or Handong Province. He has a strong overall vision, which is also something that Professor Shen admires very much about him.

"Tell me what your plan is called. If it's actually passed, your name as the originator will go down in history."

Professor Shen smiled and said that he was very interested in Jiang Yuan's naming of the plan.

"Let's call it the Wallfacing Project! These are fundamental scientific research projects, requiring billions or even tens of billions of dollars in investment and spanning decades or even years. Those leading the research are like facing a wall, constantly striking at it, never knowing when it will break through."

"Furthermore, this also embodies the earnest expectation of a great man—to face the wall for ten years in order to break through it, and even if it's not rewarded, to jump into the sea is still a hero! This is exactly in line with the goal of the plan itself!"

The Wall-Facing Plan is the name Jiang Yuan gave to the plan he thought of for himself, and it is very appropriate.

I just wonder if Liu Cixin will still use this name in his novels in a few years. Doesn’t this by Jiang Yuan count as piracy?

However, if this plan is really established, it may be kept semi-confidential for a period of time. People outside will not know the name of the plan or the research content supported by the plan.

"Good! That's a good name!"

Professor Shen applauded loudly, not only for the explanation of the content, but also for getting the name of the plan from that person's poem, which made people feel very special!

Having said that, Professor Shen's mood also improved. He believed that always indulging in unhappiness would make one age quickly. He was an optimist and discussed the plan with Jiang Yuan again, constantly improving the implementation plan and so on.

A complete plan gradually took shape through continuous discussions, from soliciting opinions from academicians to how to implement it and how to prevent problems from arising during implementation.

"Write up a plan for all this later! Don't leave tonight. Stay with Xiaoya at our place. Let's discuss this carefully, master and disciple."

Professor Shen was a little excited, and Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement.

"It's time to eat! You two are having such a heated discussion!"

Grandma Lin came out of the kitchen and called the two of them.

She and Zhao Ya discussed cooking a meal themselves today. Jiang Yuan liked Grandma Lin's cooking skills. She usually had the nanny come to cook for her, and she would only cook when close relatives like Jiang Yuan came over.

However, with Zhao Ya's help today, she felt much more relaxed.

"okay!"

Jiang Yuan and the other man also stopped talking, and then Jiang Yuan went over to serve the dishes and rice with Zhao Ya.

The four of them had dinner, Zhao Ya accompanied Grandma Lin for a walk, while Jiang Yuan and Professor Shen continued to discuss the plan.

We discussed it all night.

The next morning, after breakfast, Professor Shen dressed neatly and called Jiang Yuan to go out.

Zhao Ya was fine, so she stayed at Professor Shen's house to accompany Grandma Lin. They drove the same car as last time, and they drove out of the house and left the family compound.

"Teacher, where are we going today?"

Jiang Yuan himself was also confused. Professor Shen hurriedly pulled him out without telling him why he was taking him there.

"Go find someone to treat you to a meal!"

Professor Shen smiled and added, "I contacted Academician Peng Nian last night. He's an expert in semiconductor chip research and asked him to look at this plan. He also said he'd like to treat you to a meal, so why not do it today?"

Jiang Yuan was stunned. The teacher's network of contacts was really huge!

I was able to contact an academician directly overnight. You have to know that people like Peng Nian are very busy and sometimes they may not be in Yenching.

Unexpectedly, I could go see him early the next morning.

The car drove all the way and arrived at a park. There was an armed police force standing guard at the gate.

After registration, we entered the park with the pass in the car.

Jiang Yuan also saw armed police infantry fighting vehicles patrolling on the roadside of the park. This place has strong firepower and tight security!
