Chapter 422: Becoming Famous (1)
The main conference room of the Fragrant Hills Hotel has a total of 220 seats, which is enough for more than half of the participants to sit down.
The chairman of the organizing committee vacated this place and sat in the front row with peace of mind, ready to listen to Yang Rui's report.
However, there are still not enough seats.
When another member of the committee reported the news to the chairman, the 40-year-old Englishman was not doing well.
"We have invited more than 380 people to attend the conference, how can there not be enough seats for 220 people?
The committee members who came to report the report were also helpless, shrugged their shoulders and said: "In addition to the invited participants, some visiting scholars also want to listen to this report, as well as reporters and some volunteers......
There were a large number of visitors who were not invitees, and most of them, like Huang Mao, were participants in an important paper. Of course, there are also some visitors who come purely for visa travel and do not show up at the venue most of the time.
The volunteers are mostly students, basically the apprentices of the famous characters who came to participate in the conference, they are easy to bring people in, and it is also convenient to meet some characters on this occasion, according to the rules of the real yàn room in Europe and the United States, socializing also helps the real yàn dog to be independent.
In general, institutions, including the International Congress of Medical Bioengineering, welcome guests and volunteers, which helps them expand their impact.
However, the chairman personally came to the meeting, and it was somewhat unreasonable to arrange a conference room.
The chairman's face was very ugly, and he said: "Let the volunteers give up their seats first, and if they want to listen to the report, they can stand and listen, and in addition, get some chairs to put in the middle of the aisle, and try to let everyone sit down." Ask the reporters to go to the last row, ask them to set up the cameras and cameras in the back, and besides, you don't allow the flash to be turned on during the presentation time, you reiterate to them. ”
"I see. The commissioner accepted the offending job and ran to the front to shout.
After a while, sure enough, some places were given up.
After a few more moments, the slots were filled again.
"Anyone else?" the chairman was helpless.
"Some people originally came to see a lot of people and decided not to come in, but now that they have a place, they are coming in again. ”
"This ...... Well, let them go standing. "The chairman can't change his position.
The committee member sighed twice and said, "I didn't expect so many people to come to listen to this report, is the molecular mechanism of potassium channels on fire?"
"The study of ion channels has always been a hot topic. The chairman sighed with emotion and said: "Seize the hot spot and make a new research method, we will probably see this Yang Rui often in the future." ”
If he doesn't make a mistake this time, the report meeting attended by more than 200 people will really become famous in a while. The commissioner said enviously. He is a middle-aged and elderly scholar who has served several terms, and his own innovation ability is already very weak, and he has too much to envy for a powerful and young researcher like Yang Rui.
"It's not easy to become famous in a while. The chairman laughed twice, looked around, and thought: I don't know how many tricky questions are waiting here.
The committee member smiled: "You don't see the other conference halls, almost no one is listening, people are crowded here." ”
"Other reports will be paused if they are really affected, and they can be extended by an hour or two in the evening to try to meet everyone's needs. ”
An international conference with hundreds of people seems to be very regular, but in fact it is also the model of a fan club, and the time card is not strict.
The committee member agreed: "I'm going to write a notice saying that today's time is chaotic, so that scholars in this time period can freely apply for a moratorium on their presentations and move it to 6 o'clock in the evening." ”
"Is it free to choose? Anyway, if no one listens to the report, the scholar who made the report should be willing to change the time period. ”
The commissioner left the chamber again, and his place was quickly occupied. The scholars who are invited to the conference don't care what kind of committee member or chairperson you are. Half of the scholars present did not even recognize who the chairman was.
"Let's get started. After a delay of nearly an hour, Yang Rui picked up the speech and said bluntly in English: "Thank you for coming, the topic of the report I want to do is to analyze the molecular mechanism of potassium channels through guò mutagenes, and now, I will focus on the part of the mutagenic genes......
With more than 200 seats, the conference hall with 300 people was actually installed, and it quickly fell silent.
The white-haired and enthusiastic old man Chagav looked around, sighed twice, and then leaned back and changed to a comfortable sitting position.
Yang Rui's speech speed is very slow, and the content is basically within the framework of the collection of papers.
This is to give you plenty of time to understand the content of the paper. Yang Ruishi's achievements made after working hard for several months also require some intelligence and time.
The only thing that needs Yang Rui's additional explanation is the new graphics and numbers.
It is not suitable to add too many elements in the paper, Huang Mao only put a total of 8 graphics and numbers in the writing process, and the report will not have this kind of restriction, not only is it not restricted, but the scene is actually more suitable for a large number of graphics and pictures to explain, so Yang Rui also prepared some more, which was screened behind the podium.
Richard, like everyone else, watched them very closely, understood them, and calculated them.
This is first-hand information from the front line of scientific research.
Generally speaking, this is also the first step in the scientific community's determination of authenticity. Projects that last for months or even years often get thousands, tens of thousands, and it's normal to take out a bunch of them.
It is relatively easy to just fabricate information for the paper, such as this kind of report meeting, it is not easy to come up with a lot of information, especially those chart curves and so on.
For others, the benefits of reading these materials are also obvious, especially for researchers in the same field like Richard, who immediately grasped the project context of Yang Ruishi's room.
It's a pity that this is a project that has already been completed.
At least when it came to mutagenic genes, Richard found no information to exploit.
Richard pricked up his ears, waiting to hear Yang Rui talk about the next step.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
In the end, what I was waiting for was the sentence before the report: "The molecular mechanism part, which we are writing a paper on, will be published in the next month or two." ”
There was a sigh of regret all around him.
But then, countless hands were raised.
"Mr. on the left, let's start with you. Yang Rui didn't mean to choose, so he ordered someone from the front row.
"How did you choose the SOL channel for your research? I haven't seen your paper on the molecular mechanism yet, but I noticed that in the abstract, there are several functions of the SOL channel...... "In the front row on the left is a red-haired Dutchman who also looks like he's forty years old.
Yang Rui put down the speech and said, "I didn't choose, I ran into it." We had a fixed test process for the subjects we were studying, and when we measured the mutated SOL channel, we found a 10-fold increase in conductivity, which was an innegligible change, so we were able to divide our efforts into it......"
Yang Rui spent almost three minutes explaining this issue. The Q&A session is not a press conference, and the person asking the question can simply ask it, but the person answering should answer in as much detail as possible, unless he does not want to do so.
In the final analysis, this is still an exchange meeting, but there are only a lot of people who come to participate in Yang Rui's exchange meeting.
Under normal circumstances, such a report meeting is attended by more than a dozen people, and it is normal for everyone to sit around and talk after the report is over.
Immediately after the Dutch were satisfied, an Italian asked about the process of mutation.
Yang Rui took a deep breath, paused for a moment, and began to talk again.
These things are not difficult for him, strictly speaking, these are all things that Yang Rui read thoroughly when he was reading. As far as biology is concerned, the cutting-edge science of the 80s is the basic course 30 years later.
The clear thinking made Yang Rui's answer a little lightweight.
After a few tricky questions were answered, everyone's expressions when they looked at Yang Rui changed.
The Q&A session is the best way to reflect the level of a scientific researcher, and after a few sentences, whether a person's thinking is sharp and clear, and how deep it is, can already guess one or two.
Of course, Yang Rui's current depth comes from the depth of thirty years of advancement, and the people next to him don't understand this, they only think that Yang Rui is extremely powerful.
Richard involuntarily became timid, gently pulled Connors, and said, "The plan is stopped." ”
"What?" Connors was a student of Richard, and he had always regarded his mentor Richard as an idol, and he thought he was just listening to it.
Richard said suddenly: "There's no need to ask again, Yang Rui is very well prepared, and the project can't be more skilled, this kind of process, the questions we prepared are just a waste of time." ”
"What then?"
Richard was silent for a moment and said, "Wait ......"
"I'm going to say it. Connors had no choice but to go to the person who had been arranged in front of him.
Richard waited for two hours.
When the scheduled time came, the person who asked the question was still unwilling to end, so the chairman of the organizing committee had to temporarily increase the time.
The time was added twice in a row, and in order not to affect the people behind him, Yang Rui ended the report with a sigh of relief.
Until this moment, Richard still has not found a flaw.
However, the visiting reporter took a number of photos and went back satisfied.
At least twenty or thirty scholars, after the report meeting, still reluctant to go back, stood at the door, blocked Yang Rui, and continued to ask questions.
The report meeting turned into an exchange meeting, but the atmosphere was much better, and Yang Rui did not hesitate to take out some things that were not in the paper.
The eyebrows of everyone present danced, but they gradually began to fail to keep up with Yang Rui's rhythm.
"Let's talk again tomorrow, it's time for dinner. Yang Rui looked at his watch and closed his notebook.
