Huarui Laboratory.

Huang Mao was drooling over the newly bought low-temperature ultracentrifuge, and praised: "This one is newer than the model in Professor Cai's laboratory. My laboratory is quite different."

"As long as I can make something, I'm not afraid of spending money." Yang Rui posted a centrifuge notice and time allocation table on the wall, and said: "Now, there are two working groups in our laboratory. One is a working group composed of you and me, and the other is a working group composed of Wei Zhenxue and Tu Xian. We give priority to the use of equipment, but we must apply two days in advance. Emergency tasks are temporarily discussed and decided, but try not to interfere with the work of other groups."

"I understand." Huang Mao nodded again and again: "In the laboratory I worked in before, there were seven or eight working groups, and the time was redistributed every week. It would be lucky to get 12 hours of continuous time. , By the way, how long can I use it every week? This centrifuge."

"We need to discuss this with Old Wei, at least half of the time, unless their experiments are particularly tense." Yang Rui paused, went out and shouted in the yard: "Old Wei, do you use cryogenic centrifuges recently?"

"No need." Wei Zhenxue was also busy, and shouted from the next room, but fell silent again.

Yang Rui came back and shrugged, "It seems that time is ours."

"Use it whenever you want?"

"Yes, you can use it whenever you want."

Huang Mao took a deep breath, let it out and said with a smile: "This is simply the life in my dream, the best equipment, use it to your heart's content, no one is fighting for it..."

As Huang Mao spoke, he felt quite sentimental. It is also because the conditions of Huarui Laboratory are too good. As far as China was concerned in the 1980s, a laboratory equivalent to the national standard was quite rare, and usually only professor-level figures could have it. In fact, ordinary bull brand professors may not necessarily be able to obtain national-level standard laboratories.

As far as China's current allocation of scientific research funds is concerned, such things as high-end laboratories are far from enough. Even if the funds are increasing and the level of laboratories is improving, it is not enough for small lecturers like Huang Mao to enjoy it.

Therefore, Yang Rui easily lured him over, and said with a smile: "This is also my dream life. The researcher understands the researcher's needs best, and you signed the agreement with Huarui Laboratory, which is the most correct decision. Let's find you two more experiment assistants, our research team is complete, have you written the experiment outline yet?"

"I think the first step is to apply DNA probe technology. As long as the mutant gene is confirmed and the paper is written, we will occupy a favorable position, even if we cannot get all the original qualifications, but if we continue, we should be able to maintain the lead... "

"Split the whole big paper into smaller papers?"

"I know, I know, if we can use the method of cloning mutant genes to determine some of the functions of potassium channels, this paper may be able to enter the top journals, but isn't this a scientific research competition? We must first make sure that we get this original result , since this is the case, it is inevitable to distribute papers." Huang Mao was worried that Yang Rui would not agree, so he tried his best to persuade him.

Most of the papers that can be published in top journals are long-term research and extremely valuable papers. It is very common for a research team to use three, five, or even twenty years of research results to write an article and then publish it in top journals such as . Of course, in more cases, 20 years of research has been done, and the result cannot be published in top journals at all.

Although there are also some papers by some people,

It was written in a short period of time and published in top journals, but the level of this kind of article is not inferior, and naturally puts forward higher requirements for the writer of the paper.

Studying potassium channels by cloning mutant genes is an idea that has a good chance of being published in top journals. However, top journals don’t want semi-finished products. They will ask for answers, that is, the entire series of experiments have been completed and the results obtained after analysis. .

In terms of normal research progress, it is normal for this project to take a year or two.

However, if Richard can't let go of the temptation of the project and insists on researching, then the normal research progress is not enough.

Phased research and phased publication of articles are usually the best choice at this time.

Yang Rui, who was worried by Huang Mao that he was overjoyed, just smiled and said, "I agree."

"You... You agree, that's great." Huang Mao folded his hands together and breathed a sigh of relief.

In the afternoon, Yang Rui dragged Sun Ruyue and He Cheng to his laboratory.

Sun Ruyue is his experimental assistant at Peking University, and Yang Rui is going to do experiments like the potassium channel, which is mainly to improve the quality and has patents, in the two laboratories at any time, which can be regarded as a test of the school's reaction.

He Cheng's Beijing Institute of Chemical Technology took the exam earlier, and now it has reached the final stage, allowing him to spare time to participate in Yang Rui's experiment.

Such two undergraduate students as experimental assistants are naturally inferior to the experimental assistants of graduate students or doctoral students.

However, because Yang Rui has considerable confidence in the experiment, he doesn't care about the knowledge level of the experiment assistant himself.

In the next week, except for the exam, Yang Rui spent all his time in Huarui's laboratory, and occasionally went to Tang's laboratory to read documents, write outlines, or do some related independent experiments .

Tang's electrophoresis laboratory originally studied molecular biology, and things like DNA probes were also within its scope.

Of course, even if he is not in the scope, Tang Ji will not care about him, not to mention that Yang Rui has recently published several high-quality papers in a row, his unyielding, humble and humble style is also worthy of Tang Ji's encouragement.

If it wasn't for keeping with the college's policies, Tang Zhong would have rushed to tear him apart for the poached Richard.

Yang Rui was able to insist on staying, and it was impossible for Tang Jiji to say that he was not touched a little bit.

Invisibly, Yang Rui's status in Tang's concentrated laboratory has been improved.

At the end of the month, Li Xuegong and Xu Jing, who were about to go on vacation, also joined Huarui Lab for a short time. However, Xu Jing was clearly unable to do what she wanted to do in the laboratory. She only stayed for two days before quitting voluntarily.

Liu Shan doesn't like the boring laboratory very much, but she is willing to stay in the laboratory.

In 1984, Zhongguancun was so desolate that rabbits could be caught. Liu Shan changed her original intention when she came twice, and brought a full food box when she came for the third time.

The handmade wooden food box is a bit bigger than the steamed buns. It has four floors in height, like two computer cases joined together.

Watching Liu Shan move this huge food box into the laboratory, Yang Rui and Huang Mao, who were doing experiments, were stunned.

"I asked my classmates to make it, and then I made some food for you. I think the things you buy outside are not very clean, so you should eat less." Liu Shan blushed a little.

"You are at the University of International Business and Economics, not the Lan... Basket Technical School, how can you make such a big box?" Yang Rui first walked around the huge food box.

Liu Shan took down the food boxes one by one and said, "A girl in our dormitory has a father who is a carpenter, so she followed suit. I don't know how many of you there are, so I made it for 5 people. There are tomatoes, eggs, Mushu meat, fried cabbage, mixed radish..."

"How much does a meal for five people cost? It's too expensive, I'll pay you." Li Xuegong took the initiative to dig out his pocket.

In the 1980s, personal wages were very low, and prices were actually very expensive relative to wages. Although the price of rice noodles at one or two cents per catty is only one-tenth or even one-third of the price of later generations, at a monthly salary of 40 yuan, the living conditions of most civil servants are not as good as those of later generations with a monthly salary of 1,200 yuan. .

Because of this, dinners were such a big deal in the 80s that they were often decided by a family meeting.

Although Liu Shan cooks her own meals, there are meat and eggs, which are expensive.

Liu Shan didn't take Li Xuegong's money, and said with a smile: "The money given by the Ruixue team has not been used up yet, and there is still leftovers for vegetables and meat, so you don't need to give it."

"Get away from the experimental funds, and let He Cheng settle the score after it's over." Yang Rui also stopped Li Xuegong, and said with a smile: "The meal is still steaming, let's have more Liu Shan, eat first and then talk."

"That's right, it's wasted if it's left cold." Liu Shan happily served rice for several people, and then poured egg tomato juice into Yang Rui's bowl, adding the most eggs.

Huang Mao looked at Yang Rui meaningfully, cleaned up the rice in two mouthfuls, added another bowl, and quickly finished eating, patting his stomach: "I'm going to continue working."

Li Xuegong, He Cheng, and Sun Ruyue also ate faster than the other, and the time was tight, so the experiment time was naturally tight.
