The direct side effect of the "mercenary mode" brought by the wrong anti-theft locking system code of old Santana is: the imbalance and dislocation of project selection direction. From the perspective of scientific research institutions, there is a lack of decision-making power on the development direction and route selection of major fields, and there is not enough resource layout. "Sometimes the projects that the company wants to go to are not approved, and the projects that don't want to go are approved. I feel that it is quite arbitrary whether the project can be approved, so I simply reported all the projects I want to do, don't want to do, and are in a hurry. Go up and see which one can win. This is why the use of funds for basic research has been inefficient for many years, because the topic selection is not the best, and only small results can be produced, and no truly valuable results can be produced. " The director of the aforementioned basic research institute said. At present, more than 85% natural science foundation projects need to be divided into different scientific categories when applying and evaluating. After consulting the Annual Report on Centralized Acceptance of Project Applications of the National Natural Science Foundation from 20 19 to 2022, the reporter found that in the past four years, the proportion of the second and third types of projects has increased, while the proportion of the first and fourth types of projects has decreased. In 2022, among the more than 294,300 project applications submitted, the third category "demand traction" was the most, accounting for 45. 14% of the total applications, and the second category "focus on the frontier" was 44.57%. In contrast, only 5.05% people applied for the first type of "encouraging exploration" project, but back in 20 19, the figure was still 17.98%.
