Chapter 500 Morale

Professor Cai gets up very early every day. Before 8:00, he first completed the inspection of his laboratory, then checked the progress of several projects he was most concerned about, and then began to answer routine questions to various research groups and solve problems.

He himself is a member of the academic department of the Academy of Sciences. In theory, he is more advanced than later academicians, especially political rights. The academic department members have more. Because of this, Professor Cai’s laboratory manages multiple research groups, and these research groups have achieved results, and the corresponding authors are Professor Cai.

Of course, Professor Cai must also play the role of a boss, raise resources, decide on allocation, answer questions and answer questions, and bear risks while receiving honors.

Those who do scientific research do not pay attention to hard power. It has no practical significance for anyone who has a higher administrative level than who has. What they really exert is their influence.

For example, Einstein, whose influence was the key to promoting the Manhattan plan, and for example, Li Siguang, his decision changed the direction of China's energy industry.

This kind of strength is slowly accumulated. A good laboratory, especially a good top laboratory, must have excellent core figures, but the running-in inside the laboratory is also very important. This is a bit like an army, but it is different.

Soldiers in modern army only need to have a high school education level. Soldiers who have completed nine years of compulsory education will catch one by one, so that in peaceful times, there is no need to catch strong men. The strong men have to bribe conscription officers to realize the sacred ideal of defending their country.

The requirements for officers in modern military are slightly higher. After graduating from military academy, they may not be able to be perfectly competent after years of training. But on the other hand, officers who have trained for several years can always catch useful ones.

This is not the case for scientific research laboratories, especially for top laboratories. Although they can never be without super geniuses, they also have basic talents with high training.

Of course, the basic talents in top laboratories are also top talents when placed in other laboratories.

The integration and work of this kind of laboratory is often over the years, and not every outstanding scientist can establish an excellent laboratory.

Of course, excellent scientists are indispensable in excellent laboratories.

Professor Cai’s ideal laboratory is Cavendish Laboratory—most laboratories dream of becoming Cavendish in the next golden age.

Cavendish has a very beautiful training system. They like to attract outstanding graduates from other schools to be graduate students, and often have Nobel Prize-level researchers personally teach them.

This is another story of the strong always strong. Among the scientists who have worked in Cavendish laboratory, a total of 29 people won the Nobel Prize, including Maxwell, Maxwell, Rayleigh, Thomson, and Rutherford, the Atomic Heavenly Venerable...

In the 1980s, Cavendish Laboratory was slightly weak, which instead highlighted its other side - the Department of Physics, University of Cambridge.

Strictly speaking, Cavendish Laboratory is the Department of Physics at Cambridge University, and this made Professor Cai even more fascinated.

If Peking University Biology Department can develop this way one day, it can be said that it is a great perfection in life.

In Professor Cai’s plan, Yang Rui should be the backbone of it, and perhaps he can also serve as the next generation leader of the laboratory.

Just like Thomson is to Maxwell.

Professor Cai became more and more excited the more he thought about it. When he walked into Tangji's laboratory, he had already secretly decided that as long as Yang Rui published a paper in CELL and there was no data fraud, he would definitely protect Yang Rui.

After all, when Yang Rui was doing the potassium channel project, the Department of Biology of Peking University did not pay enough attention to it. This level of paper should have provided sufficient funds and personnel.

Professor Cai thought again that Yang Rui was indeed powerful to achieve such results without support. Such a talented scientist is rare even at Peking University.

While considering how to support Yang Rui, he slowly walked into Tangjin Laboratory.

"Huh?" Professor Cai sniffed and said to himself: It smells so fragrant.

"What kind of experiment are you doing?" Professor Cai asked the students with a happy look.

There are few college students nowadays, and they have more contact with professors and leaders in the department. No one who works in the laboratory doesn’t know Professor Cai. However, unlike Professor Cai’s usual questions, not only did no one answer enthusiastically today, but there was a weird smell on the scene.

"Has the experiment been made a problem?" Professor Cai's face tightened. The current experimental funding is tight, and every failure makes people feel sad.

"No, the experiment is pretty good." The student answered this question first, which made Professor Cai feel relieved.

"What's going on with this smell?" Professor Cai asked again.

Several students bowed their heads at the same time.

Before Professor Cai asked again, Yang Rui's voice came from inside: "Everyone knows that fried rice will be pink and yellow, but modern rice is the same as ancient rice. Who can say that? So we need to experiment. The three experimental groups cannot be missing anymore, and all record the temperature and time. In addition, the meat must be mixed and fat. How clear is it, who bought the meat so fat?"

"It's rare to sell fat meat, so I quickly bought it..."

"We are doing experiments, not living at home, so of course we have to buy according to the rules."

"Then this steamed pork is ready, can't you eat it?"

"Of course I can eat it."

"Then I'm still happy to buy fat."

"If you are so messy, I will throw you out of the laboratory." Yang Rui's voice was loud and clear.

Professor Cai's face changed. When he heard this, he asked, "What's the mess inside?"

He didn't wait for the answer and pushed the door open.

The aroma of meat comes to your nose.

Professor Cai couldn't help but twitch his nose twice.

The domestic economy in 1984 is no longer difficult. For state cadres, eating a full stomach is no longer a problem. For people like Professor Cai, meat is just a question of whether they want to eat.

However, food will never be common, and the fragrance will always arouse good memories of human beings.

"Professor Cai?" Yang Rui greeted him in confusion, and then laughed: "It's better to come than to come. You came here as soon as the steamed pork is out of the pot, and you came to report."

Professor Cai suppressed his anger and looked at the second generation project booked by the great laboratory in his fantasy, and said in a deep voice: "Why are there steamed pork in the laboratory?"

Yang Rui blinked and said, "I want to do a simple topic, relax, just treat it as a vacation, yes, vacation topic..."

"What vacation topics do you need to use steamed pork with rusty?" Professor Cai's heart was already broken! Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, the biology department needs to deal with biology, but in fact, the biology department involves more things at the cellular and even molecular levels, but no matter which level, it cannot reach steamed pork with rusty!

Yang Rui was calm and said, "The small topic, temporarily named "The classic of "Suyuan Food List" using modern biological means". Suiyuan Food List is the most famous food study in ancient China..."

"I know "Suyuan Food List."

"Yes, your Chinese studies are all very high." Yang Rui touched his chin and said indirectly: "Steamed pork with stewed meat is made of fine and mixed meat, fried rice noodles with yellow, mixed noodles with noodles sauce, and steamed with cabbage as a mat. When cooked, not only the meat is beautiful, but the dishes are also beautiful. Because there is no water, the taste is unique. Jiangxi people's dishes are also dishes."

Professor Cai's eyes turned green: "I know steamed pork with stew."

"Yes, try it. It's all in vain, and it's just a waste of saliva." Yang Rui went to serve the meat happily.

"I'm asking, why don't you do serious topics?" Professor Cai couldn't help saying: "Do you know that some scholars are busy repeating your experiments. If they can't repeat, they can't repeat..."

He said it twice in a row to express his importance.

Yang Rui calmly pushed the meat bowl and said, "I have only been thinking about repeating it for a few months. It is normal not to repeat it. What I did is troublesome."

"Aren't you worried?" Professor Cai was a little surprised.

Yang Rui curled his lips and said, "Huang Mao has done a lot of specific experimental parts. If you don't believe it, you can ask him."

"Yes..." Professor Cai's worried expression was slightly removed, and he frowned and said, "You can't eat on the credit book. Also, where can you make steamed pork in the laboratory..."

"Do you try it, isn't it delicious?" Yang Rui said without saying a word, stuffed a piece of steamed pork into Professor Cai's mouth and said, "I'm going to ask a few more people to help with the experiment. They have never been in the laboratory and practice everything they do. It's better to study ancient delicacies. After the steamed pork is finished, I'm going to make lychee meat."

?The meat was in his mouth, and Professor Cai had to chew it. As he chewed, Professor Cai's mood became much more relaxed, and his sunken face also floated up, and he said lightly: "It's not bad, but!"

"It turns out that the fried rice is too burnt, right? There will be improvements in the next pot. I think it's okay to reduce the temperature by 2 degrees Celsius." Yang Rui was serious and seemed to be discussing academic issues.

Professor Cai was completely unable to get serious and said helplessly: "If you do an experiment like this, it will dampen the morale of the laboratory."

"Will morale decrease if you have meat to eat?" Yang Rui didn't believe it.

Professor Cai couldn't help looking around, as if... morale was really not affected. Even Associate Professor Xu Zhengping twitched his nose and was operating the pipette seriously.
