In the era of national chess, scientists are also a screw in national construction.

Sometimes it is an important screw, and sometimes it is a screw that is forced on.

In later generations, scholars apply for projects by themselves, and the appropriating units only approve or not, and finally use the peer review model to judge the results. It was gradually implemented in the mid-to-late 1980s, but it will take ten years before it is fully implemented.

Before that, there were very few scholars who really had the freedom of scientific research.

Of course, the freedom of scientific research for any scholar is relative. For example, in the ongoing Iran-Iraq war, if one side suddenly resorts to super-powerful biological weapons, or even genetic weapons, whether Yang Rui needs to cooperate in relevant research and follow-up is a consideration at the national level, and there is not much room for willfulness .

Deng Jiaxian eventually became the chief designer of China's nuclear weapons, also out of various considerations. His academic ability is certainly one aspect, but on the other hand, his low-key personality, simple background, suitable age, etc. are also important reasons.

In Yang Rui's laboratory, the previous projects were important, but the timeliness was not as good after all. The so-called changing the world, some projects change the world the moment they are completed, such as atomic bombs, airplanes, or the Internet, but some projects, although they will also change the world, can only be said to moisten things silently , such as the research on potassium ion channels, it will save the lives of millions of people in the next 20 to 30 years, and further, in the next 50 or even 100 years, it will save tens of millions of people with updated technology models. It is not enough to say that human life can change the world.

PCR can be called changing the world. At the moment when PCR was invented, the world of forensic investigation changed dramatically, just as fingerprints changed all criminal methods. The development model of biology and medicine has also been permanently changed, whether it is disease screening or treatment, it has changed the operation mode of many existing technologies.

Not only that, but all technological innovations that change the world also bring about changes in the spiritual world of mankind.

Just like the atomic bomb, with the capabilities of the Manhattan Project of the United States, if they really want to use nuclear bombs to wipe out the land and flatten the Japanese archipelago, they will have to wait at least another year or even longer. Enrichment of uranium determines that the production progress of the atomic bomb cannot be accelerated.

But the atomic bomb effectively ended World War II and changed the postwar dynamic permanently and immediately.

The same goes for airplanes.

Unlike the freedom of hot air balloons and airships, airplanes have completely changed the world from the first day of their birth. If you look at 100 years ago, when society envisioned the future, different flight modes will always be the focus.

Cloning sheep will also bring about permanent changes in human thinking.

Dolly the sheep is of course nothing in itself, an arthritic sheep as weak as a chicken.

However, from the moment Dolly the sheep was born, every state it lives in represents an extraordinary meaning.

Prior to this, for embryo transfers such as cattle, only existing embryos could be selected for transplantation. If you want to quickly expand the number of a population, you are still subject to various restrictions.

Not so after cloning sheep.

Theoretically, one person can clone thousands of human clones endlessly, and the same is true for cloning pandas or golden snub-nosed monkeys.

Looking down on the long river of history, Dolly will be more prominent than all World War II generals, perhaps more important than all World War II leaders. Its arthritic knees will be more important than Roosevelt's polio; its pneumonia and coughing will be more famous than Churchill's cigars; every day it persists in surviving will be more important than Stalin's speech on Red Square More important; its evil, if it ever happened, would be larger and more threatening than Hitler's plans.

From the perspective of 1988, few people can see more far-reaching than Yang Rui.

But what the average biologist sees is amazing enough.

no one knows,

This Pandora's Box, which is about to be opened, will show you what kind of results.

If it were the leaders of many countries, they might not be able to help but stop the discussion at this time. However, in China during this period, science and technology will never be stopped because it is too advanced.

"You can order people directly, or you can ask someone to recommend them. However, if the level of confidentiality is not high enough, you can't describe the details to them." Bo Gengxin took Gu Qiang into a closed room and gave him a big list.

The list is full of names and one-sentence resumes, so thick that two watermelons can be stuffed into it.

Gu Qiang asked in surprise: "Is this the national list of biologists?"

"The ones with a high level of secrecy. You'd better choose from here first. If it's not enough, you can look for it from outside. It will take more time for a new political review." Bo Gengxin replied blankly.

Gu Qiang couldn't help but feel a little guilty: "Whose name can go up? How are they sorted?"

"Don't worry about the list above."

Gu Qiang thought for a while, then began to look through the list. After flipping through it twice, he found the sequence starting with G, obviously looking for his own name.

Geng Xin didn't say anything when he saw it, and stood behind Gu Qiang.

Gu Qiang turned around, but couldn't see his name. He was a little embarrassed and upset, so he couldn't help asking: "Why is there no name for me?"

"You won't pass."

"Why?" Gu Qiang was still not happy, and asked: "Your list is too old."

Book Geng Xin snorted twice and said, "Not old."

"Then why am I gone?"

"You failed the political review." Bo Geng Xin raised his eyebrows, and said, "Bad style of life."

Gu Qiang grinned, angry and ashamed, he couldn't help standing up, and said: "Isn't it just a matter of men and women, do you still remember me forever?"

"Of course." What Geng Xin said was so natural that Gu Qiang couldn't resist at all.

After looking at the list for a few minutes, Gu Qiang finally raised his head and said, "Then I want Wang Liangcai."

He was looking for trouble.

Wang Liangcai is the mainstay of Biology at the University of Science and Technology of China. Although he has not been promoted to the position of leader because of his age, within the scope of China, that is also the super high-end combat power of biology. He can't wait to hold hundreds of projects alone That kind, there are a large number of people behind him waiting to start work and eat with him, so they come wherever they can.

But Geng Xin didn't even glance at his eyelids, and said, "I wrote it down."

He did copy down the numbers on the list.

Gu Qiang couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, raised his head and said, "You can really find Wang Liangcai, can you?"

"Do you really want him?" Geng Xin raised his eyebrows.

"If you can find him, that's great. Is he willing?" Gu Qiang couldn't imagine that he could use Wang Liangcai to fight, and let him run away from his hometown.

Bo Gengxin said calmly: "We invite and notify, and whether he is willing to come in the end depends on his personal wishes."

"Then... how do you tell him?"

"State secret." Bo Geng Xin lowered his eyelids.

"Okay." Gu Qiang paused, bowed his head and turned a few more pages, and said, "Lian Ping, Wu Kaicheng, I want both of them."

"Write it down." Bo Geng Xin still didn't care about the specific information.

Seeing this, Gu Qiang simply called out, as if he didn't believe Geng Xin didn't bargain.

People really really don't bargain.

Gu Qiang was still a little dizzy until he left the room. He made reasonable and unreasonable demands, and it seemed like there was no way out?
