Chapter 1241 Quietly Entering the Village
In Professor Cai's office, he had a new tank of goldfish. He looked quite energetic and swam back and forth, touching the waterweed in the water tank from time to time.
Professor Cai looked down at the blue and white water tank and left a little broken corn from his fingers. When he saw Yang Rui coming in, he greeted him with a smile, "You sit down first, wait for me to wash your hands. We have to be a little faster. I'm going to the city for a meeting in the afternoon. If you hadn't called, you would have set off just now."
"Okay." Yang Rui sat on the sofa, sorted out his thoughts, and did not speak immediately.
Professor Cai sprinkled all the broken corn in his hand and washed his hands in the basin behind the door. Only then did he find that Yang Rui was not speaking, and he couldn't help but say, "Why don't you talk?"
"Come here, I'll tell you that the Dharma will not be passed on to Liuer." Yang Rui smiled.
"Hey." Professor Cai was amused by him, wiped his hands, sat opposite Yang Rui, and said, "Okay, it's mysterious, what happened again."
Yang Rui coughed, and instead of a serious expression, he said, "Professor Cai, I came to report the good news."
"Oh, where does the joy come from?"
Yang Rui expanded his folder and placed the crystal structure diagram of the G-protein-coupled receptor in front of Professor Cai. Under the other party's puzzled gaze, he whispered: "Two weeks ago, the Ion Channel Laboratory completed the second phase of the G-protein-coupled receptor and obtained the crystal structure diagram of the G-protein-coupled receptor."
"Huh?" Professor Cai obviously hasn't changed from the state of feeding fish men.
"This is the crystal structure diagram of the G protein-coupled receptor. Our second phase of research has been completed." Yang Rui paused for a moment, and said in a more confused expression of Professor Cai: "I organized a triple repeated experiment. At present, the repeated experiments conducted by Gu Qiang himself have been completed. The progress of the repeated experiments in the other two groups is about 50% and 75% respectively, and there are no obvious omissions."
"Oh, huh...ah! Completed? Really finished?" Professor Cai used a variety of onomatopoeia to confirm Yang Rui's meaning. He couldn't help but stand up and picked up the crystal structure diagram to look at it.
"The data is here." Yang Rui put another page of printing paper on the side. Everyone had only guesses in the crystal structure of the G protein-coupled receptor. Before it was made, humans didn't know what it looked like. Therefore, we must cooperate with the data and see if it matched the guess.
It's like someone finally caught a "ghost". How can you prove that it is a ghost, not something else? First, see if it meets human definition or guesses about ghosts, such as whether there is an entity, a shadow, whether it can speak, and whether there is a spell...
Only when all the conjectures are consistent can we further classify them. How can botanists judge whether a chrysanthemum is "strongly fighting against the chrysanthemum" and how can they judge whether a ghost is a ghost.
To determine the crystal structure diagram of G protein-coupled receptor, a similar method should be used, mainly to see various data and whether it complies with previous tests.
The achievements of countless scholars who died under the flesh and blood grinding of the King's Flag were only played at this moment.
Professor Cai looked at the dense data and crystal structure diagrams, lowered his head, and gradually disappeared.
Yang Rui bent down and looked at it, and found that his eyes were wide open, without any focus.
Yang Rui was startled and shouted: "Professor Cai?"
"Don't make a noise, I'll do it." Professor Cai snorted, breathed a sigh of relief, buried his head between his legs, expressionless and focusless.
Yang Rui was speechless for a while. Why do you have to mental arithmetic? There is a calculator on the table, right? Besides, you participated in the mental arithmetic competition like this when you were a child? Are you calculating the shadow area of other children?
After waiting for almost a quarter of an hour, Professor Cai finally took back the "strange" yoga posture, his eyes had focal length, and he looked at Yang Rui calmly.
Yang Rui rubbed his face and smiled bitterly: "I was also surprised when I made it, so I did the triple repeated experiment."
"Has the repeated experiment been done?" Professor Cai had actually heard the answer, but he still wanted to make sure it again.
Yang Rui nodded and said, "I watched Gu Qiang made it himself. Although I did it five times, I still did it."
A large system experiment, do it five times over again, and it is still within the normal value.
"Gu Qiang is the researcher you used to second from the Genetic Engineering Laboratory?"
"yes."
"Are you sure?" Professor Cai was not very relieved about the unfamiliar researcher.
Yang Rui said affirmatively: "I am sure that Gu Qiang's experimental ability is undoubtedly."
Professor Cai nodded slowly and said, "I don't have a deep understanding of G protein-coupled receptors. You are an authority in this regard. If you can be sure, then I will have no problem."
"I can confirm." Yang Rui didn't even hit him.
"Okay, okay..." Professor Cai patted his legs, feeling very excited, but he didn't know where to start. After thinking for a long time, he asked, "I remember that the funds have not been spent on you yet. Is the remaining funds in the first phase? How much did it cost?"
"So far, the $500,000 has not been used up." Yang Rui said and laughed.
Although Professor Cai expected that he didn't spend much money, he was stunned and repeated: "Did you make the crystal structure of the G-protein-coupled receptor with US$500,000?"
"It was done too fast. This is still the cost of repeated experiments." Yang Rui said, depicting Gu Qiang's "strong luck" and said, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought it was watching a movie."
"This luck is good enough..." Professor Cai hesitated for a moment and asked, "You have done the test, there will be no fraud, right?"
With a fund of 500,000 US dollars in half a month, if it weren't for Yang Rui's words, Professor Cai's first idea would be "academic fraud".
Yang Rui could only shruggle and said, "Professor Manhai and Professor Tao Xuelin each performed repeated experiments in an experimental group. After they were completed, they should be sure. In addition, Professor Feng Junming was taken to do horizontal comparisons by me, and he also asked him to do the later verification."
Unlike the calves who were recruited by Su Xiankai and Yang Rui from other places, Manhai, Tao Xuelin and Feng Junming are both native professors at Peking University and scholars that Professor Cai is familiar with. With their repeated experiments, Professor Cai is naturally the most at ease.
When Professor Cai heard Yang Rui’s arrangement, he knew that there was almost no problem. He said embarrassedly: “Don’t blame me for being too careless, it’s really too unexpected.”
"I can understand. Although I came up with the plan, Gu Qiang made it through in one breath, which scared me. He didn't even make any modifications in the middle." Yang Rui's half-true and half-false answer.
Professor Cai sighed: "You can make a one-time solution, which also shows that the foundation is laid firmly and the preparation is sufficient. Our researchers lack the most now. Well, I think, while you have free time these days, you will give a report to our Peking University teachers and students..."
"Professor Cai, this is not the only thing I'm here to report today." Yang Rui interrupted Professor Cai's excitement.
"Oh? You said."
"I'm considering whether we can keep the crystal structure of G protein-coupled receptors confidential first."
"Confidential?" Professor Cai was a little puzzled and said, "This is basic research, so confidentiality is not very meaningful."
"But if we publish the results, the laboratory that is currently conducting crystal structure research will immediately turn to the third stage of high-resolution three-dimensional structure research..." Yang Rui said this, paused for a moment, and asked Professor Cai to digest it briefly, and then said: "As far as we know, some laboratories have started to study three-dimensional structure in advance. Their research in this area is still ahead of us, but they lack key data, and they are slow to do it, and some pits cannot be filled, but..."
"If the crystal structure of the G protein-coupled receptor is announced, the first thing that benefits are these laboratories that start three-dimensional structure in advance." Professor Cai understood without Yang Rui's words, and couldn't help but look at Yang Rui up and down. If this is not announced, a huge pit has been dug.
He was not worried that someone could do it in advance. If a person is lucky enough to pass the level, it doesn’t mean that someone can come back again. In fact, within half a year, there is a rapid progress in a certain top laboratory.
