"Can I go abroad at my own expense and ask the school to help me connect me with a report place at an international conference. "It is useless for Yang Rui to go abroad by himself, all kinds of international conferences require invitation letters, and the specifications of high-level academic conferences are higher, and it is more difficult to make reports at conferences.

If Yang Rui didn't have a cell, the current article is good, so you don't have to think about it.

And if there is no invitation, then like many citizen scientists waiting outside various international conferences, they can only hold signs in protest.

Professor Cai knew that Yang Rui was rich, but he could only shake his head regretfully, and said: "There is an invitation quota for international conferences, and there is only one quota for going abroad, and there are no vacant places in recent months. ”

"I'm afraid it's too late. Yang Rui sighed.

"Let me help you ask, maybe there are still places in the chemistry department or the school, and there is not much chance. Professor Cai shook his head again, indicating that he could not help.

Of course, he didn't really recognize the value of PCR, if he knew that PCR could win the Nobel Prize, in fact, he didn't have to win it, as long as he could name it once in 20 years, Professor Cai immediately stripped naked and traveled barefoot around Beijing's Second Ring Road for 13 minutes, begging for a conference place.

However, most of the academic achievements, when they are still seeds, do not see the towering branches and leaves of the future.

Moreover, sitting in the position of the head of the department, Professor Cai also hopes that Yang Rui can put Peking University in his signature.

After comforting Yang Rui, Professor Cai sent Yang Rui out of the door.

Yang Rui could only go back to the laboratory and think about it, and occasionally made two transatlantic phone calls, but he didn't encounter a miracle.

He met several foreign professors at an international conference in Beijing, and some of them maintained contacts, but their abilities were not enough for Yang Rui to join the team.

At this time, Yang Rui deeply felt that his connections were insufficient.

Fortunately, I was admitted to Peking University, and if the publication of Nature went well, there would not be much of a problem.

At that time, Yang Rui's achievements under his name include one cell and one nature, although it is said that there are many students and teachers who can publish papers in top journals in top universities in Europe and the United States, but there are far fewer who can publish two papers.

This will make it easier for the academic community to recognize his contribution to PCR.

However, if it does not make it to Nature and there is no conference to make a report...... Yang Rui's entanglement is almost endless, and it is difficult to find a solution.

At this time, he couldn't stop thinking again: if I start PCR later......

However, the fact is that it can't be too late, and if it's too late, the Americans have not yet registered a patent for PCR, but the idea of PCR should also pop up.

When the time comes, a Chinese college freshman competes with a white American doctor for the right to discover, no matter how you think about it, it will be the rhythm that Yang Rui will lose.

stayed up like this until the weekend, Li Wenqiang and others made part of the "golden rule", more precisely, they made it well.

To do the "golden rule", the heaviest work is to run the glue, and most people will do a mess at the beginning of the glue, the lane is crooked, the strip is missing, and the fancy mess, all in all, all kinds of unseen and unheard of mistakes, may appear in the first few times of running glue, but not see the right.

When Yang Rui was in graduate school, running glue was the basic work of biological research, just like the liquid phase gas chromatograph was the basic configuration, and there was no student who did not learn it. But in the 80s, the top universities and the famous universities with weaker faculties did not have relevant technology and equipment, and Li Wenqiang and others didn't know how to run glue before, so they practiced in Huarui Laboratory.

With the increase in the number of experiments, the film naturally became more and more beautiful, and the PCR reaction results gradually became more reliable.

The background reaction disappears, the signal in the negative control disappears, and all kinds of unexplained strange phenomena gradually disappear......

In Yang Rui's view, running glue and washing clothes and folding quilts are similar, both belong to the technical work that practice makes perfect, children who can fold quilts run glue for the first time, they still have to start from a mess, and children who can run glue fold quilts for the first time, and they must set sail from the mess.

The difference is that you can learn to fold quilts anywhere, and the cost of running glue is a bit high.

In order to complete the experiment as quickly as possible under the standards of the "golden rule" – which is the key to proving the feasibility of PCR to others – Li Wenqiang and Duan Bo both took the initiative to work overtime.

Zhang Xuetong needed to provide more oligonucleotides, and he also had to spend the evening improving the equipment.

The money is spent like a stream.

In just one week, Sinovel Labs had $30,000 more in material fees in its account, and the lawyers spent even more.

Just by accumulating, it really made Yang Rui anxious.

Fortunately, the production company of the DNA synthesizer, "Biological Research", gave them a batch of accessories and materials for free, reducing the cost of the laboratory - the company is completing the improved DNA synthesizer according to Yang Rui's improvement suggestions, and there will be a refund when it is put on the market.

It's just that the distant water doesn't quench the thirst of the near.

Anxiety and research grew at the same time, and Yang Rui stayed in the lab over the weekend, hoping to move the project forward as quickly as possible.

In the afternoon, an unexpected visitor appeared.

"Dean Liu?" Yang Rui opened the door, surprised. He's now at Sinovel Labs, not Ion Channel Labs.

Dean Liu came on a bicycle, and he was sweating profusely, so he wiped his sleeve and said with a smile: "I'm here to see you, can you go in?"

"Oh, come in, come in. Yang Rui hurriedly let Dean Liu into the courtyard, put his bicycle against the wall, and said, "There are few people in the laboratory, so we don't have a special parking shed." ”

"It's beautiful. Dean Liu looked at the large courtyard in the style of the courtyard, took the initiative to stand under the shade of the tree in the middle, and said with a smile: "The autumn tiger is very hot, your laboratory is cool, what a big piece of land, bigger than the school's laboratory?"

"The area is about the same as the school's lab, but there are no neighbors in front of it, and there is room for expansion in the future. There is already an extra yard built next to it, and now it is used as a warehouse or something, and I plan to apply to the district for a larger one after the New Year, and it is best to build a few staff dormitories, and the researchers are a waste of time running around. Yang Rui and Dean Liu were gossiping, speculating about his purpose.

"This is good, this is good...... Dean Liu nodded with a smile, looked in the direction of the laboratory, and asked, "The project you showed Professor Cai was made here?"

"Oh, yes. Yang Rui didn't say much.

Dean Liu was not afraid of embarrassment, but he didn't see Yang Rui's coldness, and continued: "Professor Cai took it to the meeting. ”

Yang Rui looked at him hopelessly and asked, "Did you pass?"

Professor Cai put forward two proposals, but they were not approved. ”

Yang Rui shrugged unexpectedly. Since Professor Cai did not agree to him in person, there is not much difference between the meeting, of course, this is not to say that Professor Cai is unwilling to promote this matter, but the impetus he is willing to give, and he believes that the impetus that should be given is far from enough to push Yang Rui's request.

Of course, Professor Cai could arbitrarily give Yang Rui a place, but this is not how things work.

Dean Liu waited for a few seconds, let Yang Rui relieve his emotions, and said: "Don't be unhappy, I'll tell you the truth, the time is too tight, it is true that there is no place to be freed, and the quota that others have won with great difficulty also has their own jobs, are you right?" ”

"I can understand that it was a reluctant invitation. ”

"You can understand best. Dean Liu smiled, observed Yang Rui's expression, and said: "Your project is doing quite well, at the meeting, not only Dean Cai, everyone gave praise, we don't want you to lose the opportunity for such a project, you want to strive for a paper published in Nature, we are also willing to support, but as the saying goes, to be famous, your project and our Peking University, basically have no connection." It's true that you are a student of our Peking University, but if you don't sign your paper, our school can't force it, don't you say?"

Dean Liu didn't wait for Yang Rui to answer, and then said: "We also know that your project is supported by Sinovel Company, you see how this is, you help us contact Sinovel Company, and say that we are willing to contribute one-third of the funds and ask for a signature." ”

Yang Rui raised his eyebrows: "This project has been completed, but it has cost nearly one million US dollars." ”

Dean Liu's eyebrows also jumped, and he laughed instantly: "Where can there be so many million dollars, we estimate, not counting the instrument, 600,000 dollars should be enough." ”

The $600,000 is estimated based on the amount of money that Sinovel can give Yang Rui and the time consumed by the project, not the cost of the project itself.

If Yang Rui did PCR from scratch, $600,000 would not be enough, but Huarui did not spend $600,000 to do PCR.

Yang Rui said noncommittally: "More than 600,000 US dollars, but according to 600,000 US dollars, you also have to get 200,000 US dollars, when are we so rich?"

"This money can be given to the school, and you have to let a first author come out. ”

Yang Rui suddenly realized that this was still an academic transaction.

$200,000 to buy a copy of "Nature", using the state's money, is naturally not a loss.

In any university in China, any powerful school leader is probably willing to pay this money.

It's a good deal.

In fact, given the current environment in China, it is really not easy to make a "Nature" for 200,000 US dollars.

It is also because Yang Rui has a good history and has published in top journals that people are willing to take this risk.

For a moment, Yang Rui's heart moved. If it is a coenzyme Q10-related paper, fill in a contract, Yang Rui will definitely follow, after all, such a technical paper, in the future, it will belong to the digital part of the results, one more tied for the first author, one less tied for the first author, no impression.

However, this is not a paper on CoQ10.

Yang Rui shook his head and said, "Dean Liu, you don't have to say it, I can't handle this matter, it's not only a matter of signature, but also a patent issue." ”

"Patents are simple. Dean Liu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "We definitely won't ask for your patent, so let's write a statement and let the office stamp it, stating that I don't want your patent, okay?"

Yang Rui pursed his lips and said in a distrustful tone: "Then what if the higher authorities don't recognize your statement?"

If it is a $300,000 patent, Yang Rui will believe in the discipline of the higher department. With a patent of three billion US dollars, Yang Rui does not want to have a relationship with the relevant departments.

Dean Liu further persuaded him, he actually didn't have bad intentions, he just wanted to count them in one fell swoop, and felt that Yang Rui had nothing to lose.

Yang Rui didn't want to listen anymore, but he suddenly interrupted him and asked, "The leader you said, where did he find the quota?"

"What?"

Yang Rui was also inspired, and asked: "The quota he is looking for, I mean, where did the quota that this leader found come from? I can't sign it to Peking University, and Sinovel Labs can't get through, but I'm willing to pay privately for a new place." ”

Dean Liu smiled: "It's not about money, this is the quota for going abroad, the official passport, the daily allowance for going abroad, and the quota for this international conference, it's not that I said, how much money you spend, no one can say a word." ”

Yang Rui also smiled and said: "What you are talking about may be the Chinese standard, if you go abroad, it should be the international standard, and in the international standard, the local tyrant is the best." ”

"What?"

"One for two. Yang Rui raised two fingers and said: "I can get two places abroad, I don't have a quota for this international conference, but it can be an inspection to a certain company or university, you help me change the quota, and I will give you a refrigerator ticket." ”

In 84, families with better conditions in Beijing had TVs, but refrigerators were not necessarily, and Dean Liu did not use them himself, and it was also excellent to give them away.

Dean Liu hesitated.

"They can go abroad as a couple and go around together. Yang Rui's words were bewitching. It would be nice to be able to do it for a few thousand dollars.

In the end, Dean Liu shook his head and said, "This can't do it, just going abroad, he definitely doesn't want to." That one...... The leader I'm talking about is holding the project in his hand, so he will definitely get the quota, otherwise, you will find a project from Sinovel to come over?"

"The project doesn't work. Yang Rui was a little disappointed, Sinovel Lab was his, and the project funds were often tens of thousands of dollars, hundreds of thousands of yuan, and the cost was too high.

"I'll think again. Dean Liu really wanted this refrigerator ticket, thought for a long time, and said, "Look at how this is, I will introduce you to a person, you talk to him, two places, maybe it's okay." ”

"Who is it?"

"When he came back from studying abroad, he always wanted to go back, and he didn't go abroad to attend the conference, but if you want to give a report at the conference, you can't help it. ”

"I understand, take it one step at a time. Yang Rui also didn't expect that doing the project would cause so much trouble, but it would not work if he didn't continue.
