Is Yang Rui accurate when he went to Tengchong? He found thermophilic bacteria and isolated heat-resistant DNA polymerase. He took a hot spring bath just for a few preparations. He bought several instruments and equipment from Hong Kong and shipped directly to Kunming.

In the 1980s, major equipment and instrument companies were stationed in Hong Kong, and many of them came from the mainland. Yang Rui's Huarui Laboratory has recently risen and has attracted attention. When Yang Rui and his group arrived at Kunming Airport, Hong Kong intermediary companies also sent people to pick them up and helped to collect all the instruments and sent them to the hotel to check in, leaving their business cards.

The person who came to the ground was Kang Hong, a young associate professor at Yunnan University.

This is also a by-product of Yang Rui's participation in the "International Medical and Biology Conference".

Biology is also an advantageous major at Yunnan University. After all, it has rich biological resources. You can publish a good paper by simply finding a few plants or microorganisms. Under the snowball effect, it is relatively easy to emerge from the army.

However, no matter how strong local universities are, they are not as strong as universities in Beijing. First of all, there are fewer places for various international conferences, and it costs more to attend a conference.

This year, Kang Hong was appointed as the second author for the research department director, so he took an invitation letter and went to Beijing in the name of "visiting". The method and method are similar to Huang Mao.

However, Huang Mao had no money to pay in addition to human feelings to attend an international conference, and Kang Hong was very busy.

Because of this, Kang Hong, who finally attended the meeting, paid great attention to making friends. This is how it is done in research in local colleges and universities. You must make more friends in order to integrate into the discipline circle. Otherwise, if you work alone in Yunnan, you will not know what the results will be. It can be said that you will get half the result with twice the effort.

Yang Rui made a big splash at the "International Medical and Biology Conference", so he was naturally the target of Kang Hong's friendship.

The qualifications in the scientific research circle are mostly made up of results. Although Kang Hong, who is over thirty years old, is a young and promising associate professor, he is incomparable to Yang Rui. Not to mention anything else, just a paper "JMC" with SCI impact factor 4.0 is better than professors from local universities, let alone the paper published at the "International Medical and Biology Conference".

In addition, the scientific research competition with Richard is also a very prestigious thing, and of course it is a winner.

Although scientific research competitions are cruel, it is precisely because of their cruelty that the winners of scientific research competitions can attract attention from many parties.

The basic effect is that peers will carefully read your paper and preconceive your belief that you have a certain level.

This is like the difference between an arms race and a war. Before the war, no matter how many countries brag, it can only make people doubt it. For example, Israel before the Middle East War, China before the Sino-Indian War, and Britain before the Falklands War... But after a war, the persuasive power cannot be more powerful.

War is a reputation that is gained through blood, and soldiers are fierce and dangerous. Before the result comes out, no one is sure whether it is Gulf War-style, Vietnam War-style, or Iran-Iraq War-style...

The scientific research competition bet on the scientific research life of scientific researchers and large amounts of funds. In the field of biology, countless companies have been dumped due to a scientific research competition, and researchers who have been depressed for life for a lifetime are like crucian carp crossing the river.

Richard, who was defeated by Yang Rui, spanned China and the United States. He also took the funds provided by Peking University and the University of California, and used his reputation to find funders. He spent millions of dollars and spent nearly a year, blocking decades of history. He ended up losing and losing... It can be said that Richard's scientific research life has ended halfway. Even if he wanted to start over, he could only start a project of 100,000. Without three to five years of struggle and a top-level paper, it would not be easy to return to his previous position.

However, it is so difficult to publish a top-level paper, especially Richard, who failed the scientific research competition. His paper is handed over to peer review, and first of all, he will encounter stricter standards...

Correspondingly, the famous Yang Rui is the one who has become famous.

Richard's losses contrasted with Yang Rui's strength. For young associate professors like Kang Hong, California Berkeley is a holy land like a god. The professors of the school were defeated by Yang Rui, which is naturally a god-level story.

In fact, the more people in the circle are, the more they feel awe of Yang Rui's victory. This is also the reason why Professor Cai, an academician of the Academy of Sciences (member of the academic department), will personally apply for a fee of 600,000 yuan for Yang Rui.

Since the resumption of the college entrance examination, geniuses entering Peking University have emerged like volcanoes, but at least there is no biological system that reaches Yang Rui's level.

Especially Yang Rui's peers, most of them are still studying basic courses with difficulty. Their excellence is more reflected in their academic and social activities. Research is far from being introductory.

In short, the academic master who is the same age as Yang Rui is still a student master in the learning state, while Yang Rui has begun to become a research-oriented and practical academic master.

The papers on potassium channels have proved that he has world-leading research qualities.

If Yang Rui is an employee of Peking University, he can be promoted to associate professor with this paper. In a few years, it will be no problem to become a professor.

In addition to age, Kang Hong made friends with Yang Rui completely in a high-level way.

Because of this, Kang Hong was very happy when he received a call from Yang Rui. He specially borrowed a minibus from the school and took a group of people to visit Kunming City, including food and accommodation, and insisted on sending a few people to Tengchong, and said: "I have a good relationship with the Yunnan Military Region. I can arrange for you to live in the sanitary center of the military region. If I go in person, the conditions will definitely be better."

"It's so troublesome." Yang Rui has never received such a diligent reception. The scientific research community 30 years later is different from now.

Chinese people in the 1980s all rely on friends when going out. Many times, even acquaintances who met one time could help a lot, just like Kang Hong now.

Of course, when Kang Hong comes to Beijing again in the future, or wants a place for an international conference, Yang Rui deserves to repay this favor.

This is the so-called human relationship society.

Yang Rui was not used to this treatment, but Kang Hong was very accustomed to it. He smiled and said, "No trouble", and said, "The Yunnan Military Region recently invited us to make medicine. Our hospital provides people and materials. What is the point of going to their nursing home for a few days?"

"We also approved the funds."

"If you come to Yunnan, don't use the approved funds, I will find a solution." Kang Hong made a promise and said, "I'll find a few more guns. They can shoot big prey in front of their sanatorium. It's very interesting."

The hot spring Yang Rui was going to was actually undeveloped, and he was always a little worried about safety issues. After hearing Kang Hong said this, he moved his heart: "It would be better to find two guides. I am a little interested in high-temperature hot springs. In addition, we want to pay to hire a few people to move the instruments, so we won't go hunting."

"No problem, you don't need money. Do you want to do hot spring research?" Kang Hong became interested as soon as he heard this.

Yang Rui didn't hide it from him and nodded: "I see that foreign countries are doing microbial research in extreme environments, and they are doing it in full swing. I want to take the opportunity to learn more about it."

Kang Hongda was excited and thought that he had come right now. The research on potassium channel is the work of Huarui Laboratory. Even if there is any development, it is not the turn of associate professors from the Department of Biology of Yunnan University to mix. However, the hot springs in Yunnan are in Yunnan. Yang Rui has a new research direction, whether it is cooperation, cooperation or following, it has considerable significance.

He thought for a moment and said seriously: "Microorganisms in extreme environments are life miracles, containing rich information on the evolutionary process of life. Microorganisms in extreme environments represent the ultimate adaptability of organisms to the environment, define the "boundary" of the biosphere, and are the treasures of biological inheritance. I have read the popular science article "Biosphere" you wrote, which is very enlightening. If we can study the survival status of microorganisms in extreme environments, it is of great significance to understand life, and may also lay the foundation for human livable aliens."

Although the last sentence sounds a bit funny, it is really not funny.

In 1984, Americans were ambitiously considering immigrating to Mars. If the Soviet Union could last for another 20 years, the United States might be able to grit their teeth and persevere, making outer space exploration a step further.

Although domestic researchers lag behind the times, everyone’s goal is to focus on 20 years, 30 years or even 50 years later, especially those who do basic research, and their vision is even more long-term.

Microbial research in extreme environments is also a hot topic. It has always been prosperous from the 1960s and 1970s to the 21st century. Its research results are indeed one of the foundations for human immigration to aliens.

The 1960s was the beginning of the Apollo project. In more than ten years, humans completed the moon landing plan. At this time, people had reason to believe that space exploration would continue and get faster and faster.

"Biosphere", which once earned more than 2,000 yuan in pocket money for Yang Rui, was also in this context that it appeared in "Science Pictorial".

When Kang Hong said his name, Yang Rui was quite surprised and asked: "Have you read the popular science articles I wrote?"

"After the media reported, I went to the library to borrow it to see it." Kang Hong was extremely glad that he specially collected reports about Yang Rui after returning to school.

Yang Rui nodded and said, "Professor Kang is also interested in microorganisms in extreme environments?"

Kang Hongxin said, if you are interested, I will also be interested.

In order to answer Yang Rui's question, Kang Hong continued his serious attitude just now and said: "I think the high-temperature hot springs are closer to the early environment of the earth, especially the microbial ecosystem inside is relatively simple, stable and closed, which is very convenient for us to do research and do original accumulation."

The original accumulation means that you cannot make a profit immediately. Yang Rui’s intention is not to drink, but only said: “I just received 600,000 yuan in research funds recently. I want to do more research. If Professor Kang can help us find the hot spring, I will be grateful.”

It is more than enough to do this microbial research with a cost of 600,000 yuan. Kang Hong’s goal is not only to find a hot spring and a tour guide. He immediately invited: “Our biological laboratory at Yunnan University is also very good, so why not cooperate to do it.”

"For such a small project, there is no need to cooperate. Besides, we are full of manpower." Yang Ruiyan refused.

Wei Zhenxue was already impatient and followed him: "You want to have a competition, and we don't object."

"I dare not, don't dare." Kang Hong quickly expressed his attitude: "What do you need to help? Just tell me, it's better to be able to help. Today I will take you to eat authentic Xuanwei ham. I have done research on the microbial bacterial flora of Xuanwei ham before, and it has a good relationship with several state-owned factories. By the way, do you know that Xuanwei ham's protein content is lower than fresh meat, but the soluble amino acid content is 2.8 of fresh meat?"

Kang Hong changed the topic, and Yang Rui let it go and said with a natural smile: "Is it because some of the proteins are hydrolyzed into amino acids from the process to maturity of ham from enzymes?"

"Yes, yes, the research I did shows that the aspartic acid, serine, glycine and arginine content of Xuanwei ham is significantly higher than that of fresh meat, which is one of the reasons for increasing the flavor of ham. In addition, Xuanwei ham contains 45 mg of vitamin one per 100 grams of lean meat, and the sweetness comes from alanine, serine, threonine, tryptophan and its derivatives..." Kang Hong introduced the food and did not forget to prove his identity as a researcher, trying to impress Yang Rui.
