Chapter 339: Progress

"Now, Richard can be considered to know. Huang Mao looked at Xu Anqing's back as he left, and asked, "Do you know this student?" Otherwise, I'll go and tell him, don't report to Richard first, delay for a few days, count a few days." ”

"No, Richard already knew. Yang Rui thought about it for a moment and said: "The level of the real room in China is at most the kind of our school, and Richard's newly built real room cannot exceed much, and the same is true for researchers, except for Richard himself, he can only find researchers from China, and the progress cannot be faster than ours." ”

Yang Rui is still quite confident, on the one hand, his confidence comes from himself, the information and papers in his mind can make him take countless detours, and on the other hand, Yang Rui's confidence comes from Huang Mao. Although Huang Mao himself didn't realize it, if he could successfully grow into an academician, then he must have something outstanding in scientific research.

Huang Mao has not yet proved his strength with unattainable facts, but he has completed systematic learning and basic accumulation, and normally speaking, he now has the foundation to break out in the real yàn room. The difference is only that after two or three years, seniority and accumulation will be more, and then it will explode in the school's real yàn room, or now it will explode in Yang Rui's real yàn room.

The most important thing is that Huang Mao's research direction back then included potassium channel related, for a researcher, although there are mistakes in the research direction, but if he is successful in his forties or fifties and still does research in this area, then he must have an advantage or interest in this direction.

As a study, it should be a category that is unknown to man, neither knows its appearance, nor knows what knowledge is required to study it, does it require a strong level of mathematics, does it require a comprehensive foundation in chemistry, does it need a reserve in fluidics or electromagnetism? Before the research, no one can say, especially in the biological system, the big bulls who are good at mathematics, the big bulls who are good at chemistry, and the big bulls who are good at physics emerge in endlessly, and countless researchers have to fight for both strength and luck, and the same research, the direction of interpretation is different, and the results may be completely different.

For example, the Nobel Prize discovery of the DNA double helix structure is an X-ray diffraction photo of the DNA crystal of Watson and Crickton, and the helical parameters obtained from the analysis have no corresponding physical and mathematical basis, and no matter how good the Ben is, it cannot be played.

From the point of view of hindsight, Huang Mao obviously has the correct posture to solve problems related to potassium channels, and maybe there is a metaphysical bonus of inspiration.

Yang Rui felt that with Huang Mao and hundreds of thousands of dollars to build a real room, such a combination was still sure to deal with Richard.

Although Richard is a cow at the University of California, he is only a cow, and he is better than a big cow like Tang Zhong in that he is in the center of knowledge, and has the advantage of information and material. In China 30 years from now, if a professor like Richard comes to Peking University again, that is, an ordinary visiting scholar, he will definitely not get the courtesy of today's academicians.

Huang Mao didn't have the confidence of Yang Rui, he didn't even have the heart to read the literature, and said worriedly: "Richard is powerful enough, as far as I can see, Old Tang's gel room is also supported by him alone, and other assistant researchers or something, that is, the level of assistants." ”

Yang Rui smiled: "You are also an assistant yourself, do you want to say that you are useless?"

"It doesn't matter if I'm useful or not, we need our research to be useful, otherwise it's going to be a lot of trouble. Can you afford the result that all the research funds are wasted?" Huang Mao lowered his voice and said: "Ordinary research, even if there is no result, the process is useful, what we are doing now, once it is preempted by Richard, the intermediate process is useless." The whole real yàn is done, at least 100,000 yuan of funds, even if you have dividends......"

"500,000. Yang Rui interrupted Huang Mao's words.

Huang Mao asked puzzledly, "What?"

"I have prepared a fund of 500,000 yuan, so I can bear the loss of 100,000 yuan, of course, I can also bear the loss of 500,000 yuan, it is now February, and by the end of March, I still have a new quarter of dividends. "Yang Rui's previous dividends have not been spent, so he has quite a lot of funds. He is now in a very perfect stage as a researcher – with a high and long-term return on royalties.

Thirty years later, most of the biology professors are pursuing what Yang Rui did. The reason why so many people devote themselves to cancer fighting, or targeted research on AIDS, is, in the final analysis, these lifelong drugs that can provide long-term and high patent fees.

If you rank the assets of professors, professors in biology and medicine are usually at the top of the rankings, and professors in basic disciplines are poorer. In short, the professor who can make a patent is the most comfortable, a model of lifelong benefit from an investment, followed by a professor who can make a project, with an annual income of millions as the benchmark, the number of people who exceed par is really a lot, and the lowest income is a pure academic professor, even if you can do some academic **, such as taking away 500,000 yuan of 1 million funds, but the process is complex and risky, and it is not the most perfect way.

In China in the 80s, the professors had not yet opened up the corresponding business model, and once let the tea egg sellers surpass, as for a small lecturer like Huang Mao, he could almost hang on the side of the poor, listening to Yang Rui easily talk about 500,000, it was really difficult to implement.

Huang Mao was worried that Yang Rui was bragging, so he couldn't help but say: "You still have the heart to laugh, this is a matter of Yan Sù." ”

"I'm strict, 500,000 yuan, I promise. Yang Rui paused for a moment, and then said: "I know that Richard must be a powerful person, our level and experience can't catch up with others, so we can't suffer in terms of funds, otherwise how can we compete." ”

"Are you desperate?" Huang Mao glared.

"It's only 500,000 yuan, how can it be a desperate gamble?" Yang Rui said in a show-off tone.

Huang Mao shook his head: "Even if you have 1 million, you can't spend it like this, won't it be over in the future?"

"There must be distress, but things still have to be done, let's do a good job, not only can we return to our roots, maybe we can also make a profit. "Studying the potassium channel, and then going to the pharmaceutical industry is one step away, and this patent will be of interest to a large number of pharmaceutical companies.

If it weren't for that, Richard wouldn't have wanted to settle down.

"The money is yours, you decide. Huang Mao is actually willing to do research with sufficient funds, he shrugged his shoulders and said: "We'd better start now, we can only win and not lose, otherwise we will be bitten back by Richard, just like the student just said, I believe that there are many more people who believe in our plagiarism than those who believe in Richard's plagiarism." ”

"Sharpen the knife and don't mistake the woodcutter, let's just do our own. Yang Rui pointed to the literature in his hand and continued to look down at the journal.

To do this kind of research, we must first understand the research of previous researchers. After 20 years, it's a process of typing in a few keywords and looking up relevant literature. But in China in 1984, it wasn't so easy to search for keywords.

Even if there are some papers in Yang Rui's mind, they may be comprehensive and exhaustive, on the other hand, potassium channels are the current research hotspot, and they really need to know how others are progressing and build their own arguments on the basis of others. This is an inevitable part of scientific research, if you want to do Riemannian geometry, you must first have Euclidean geometry as a foundation, such as potassium channel, this kind of paper, you need to rely on more foundations.

Without a database or a search engine, Yang Rui and Huang Mao had to flip through books and periodicals.

Thanks to the good conditions of Peking University, the English level of the two is high, otherwise, it would be a finished paper in front of them, and ordinary people would not dare to copy it.

No matter how much definite research has to be discussed and debated, there is no plagiarism paper without a little level of plagiarism.

After reading a few periodicals, half an hour passed. During this period, Sun Ruyue went to the library to help the two exchange books, which was also an additional benefit from Yang Rui's silver bullet offensive.

Huang Mao finished reading a paper, and instead of reading the next one, he drank tea for a while and asked, "You say, what if Richard's real room in China is a cover?"

"What do you mean?"

"Why does it take a month to set up the real room, Richard should be racing against time, is it just a waste of a month, waiting for our school to build a real room for him?"

"Do you suspect that he is at the University of California and has already started to do real things?"

"It's not impossible, if he gives the order, it won't be strange that he will start doing it first. ”

"Then we're going to speed things up. "Yang Rui has no other way, he can't influence the United States.
