Eight hundred and twentieth eight chapters show loyalty
Those who do scientific research to achieve high-end levels will have to talk about politics, because the allocation of social resources is politics, and high-end
Therefore, whether it is American scientists or Chinese scientists, they are busy all year round.
If someone makes a daily life for a scientist, he will find that scientists are busy not just about scientific research. In fact, the more top scientists are, the more they spend more time outside of scientific research.
For example, if Dalbeco wants to ask for money from the US Congress, he has to inspire members of Congress or senators who are eligible to allocate funds and explain to them the importance of the human genome program.
In fact, how many members of Congress or the Senate can understand the human genome project?
Anyone who is a biology student is thrown to the MPs is enough to explain the human genome plan to them. But if Dalbeco wants funds, he must personally go and do popular science for the MPs.
Not only that, lawmakers can also propose corresponding exchange conditions.
For example, an Alabama lawmaker, in order to get his stupid nephew to study at Alabama State University, can ask Dalbeco to name the Alabama State University laboratory, and spend three or five days a year.
Such exchanges can be done once or twice, and after ten or eight times, you can imagine where the time of a top scholar has flew to.
The same situation can also occur in China. The academician laboratory buildings throughout China, the Yangtze River scholars and other things are built together, each of which represents three or five days of time spent a year.
But in order to obtain local funds, or whatever channel funds, these time and reputation must be sold.
The more famous a scholar, the higher his time and fame he can sell at a higher price, so as to use these funds to gain greater fame and time. This cycle is no essential difference from sports stars or entertainment stars.
Yang Rui also has such a need.
He needs funds to do in-depth research on genomics, he needs funds to maintain the high-level operation of the ion channel laboratory, he needs funds to distribute to his assistants. If he does not do so, he will lose his project, the laboratory that completes the project, or the scientific research that completes the project.
Laboratory assistants spend 110 hours a week working for Yang Rui. While Yang Rui enjoys the fruits of their labor, he is obliged to provide them with an upward channel.
The request Yang Rui made to Tobiles was equivalent to asking him to support his needs, so that he could concentrate his time on the research of second-generation PCR.
However, if you do so, neither the Ministry of Energy nor any other organization will be able to gain benefits from investment.
Although scientific research investment is often unreturned, Yang Rui’s requirements are still relatively rare.
But Tobiles was trying hard to think.
The scale of human genome projects is not rare, but extremely rare.
In this context, scholars who may be independent are very special, and everyone may have different requirements.
Compared to Yang Rui, some European scholars' requirements may be more bizarre, more difficult to achieve, and more expensive.
"Mr. Yang Rui, if I hadn't invested directly in PCR, I could only approve a $200,000 payment." Tobiles thought for a long time and gave such a number.
The translation was translated as usual.
Yang Rui shook his head slightly and said, "You just said that there is a limit of 5 million US dollars, which suddenly fell to 200,000 US dollars."
"$5 million is an investment in PCR." Tobiers' fleshy face curled up like a mimosa and said, "The 200,000 US dollars was originally given to me by the Ministry of Energy's public relations fund. I can take it all out. You can use it anywhere."
"I do want some funds that can be used anywhere, but 200,000 is too small."
"I may also help you find some corporate investments, which are not required to return. The total number will not be too much. Maybe... $100,000, the total number is 300,000 US dollars. How about alleviating your needs first?" Tobiles increased the number slightly.
What he implies in his words is actually to let Yang Rui do some achievements.
After all, if you invest in a second-generation PCR, no matter what kind of document you sign, there will be payment terms similar to milestones.
Yang Rui's big curve requirement naturally cut off this clause.
In view of this, Tobiles or his superiors cannot give a large amount of one-time payment. Otherwise, if Yang Rui takes the money and doesn't do PCR, or does PCR and doesn't cooperate with him, what will they do?
Therefore, this kind of money can only be manually restricted.
Just like many charitable organizations or individuals donate to universities, many universities refuse to accept donations for the purpose of formulating and research directions. In order to see their own money play a role, the former can only make manual restrictions.
Yang Rui thought for a while and said, "Although 300,000 is a little less, this is the only way. Can you transfer the money before the Spring Festival?"
"I'll call later. Happy cooperation." Tobiles paused and continued: "If you can promote PCR research after the Spring Festival, I may be able to help you get more unlimited funds."
This is something that Yang Rui is confident to do, and whether there are Tobiles or Dalbeco, Yang Rui will update the PCR technology.
What Tobiles said about the Spring Festival may be a huge problem for ordinary scholars, and they may not have been able to live well for years, but for Yang Rui, it is nothing more than a few verification tests, and it is not much different from appetizers.
Yang Rui smiled and said, "But don't have to spend $100,000 and $200,000."
"No, if you can promote the research progress of second-generation PCR, any institution will be willing to invest money for you." Under the influence of Yang Rui, Tobiles inexplicably felt that $100,000 and $200,000 was a waste.
Of course, in terms of PCR, 100,000 and 200,000 is indeed quite shabby.
This is no longer the period when PCR has just interviewed. There are more people who can see the prospects for PCR now than labs that use it, and the latter is already a big number.
Tobiers said goodbye and left, and the township cadres next to him immediately surrounded Yang Rui and asked loudly.
Because my father was also next to him and his face was full of curiosity, Yang Rui explained.
When everyone heard Yang Rui say that the amount of $5 million suddenly turned into $300,000, they couldn't help but shake their heads.
The village head was even more indignant and said empathetically: "I just said that the business people are stingy. What is 300,000 yuan enough? Do you think so?"
"That is to say, it's amazing when bragging, it's 5 million yuan and 5 million yuan. In the end, it's shaky when asking for money. I'm so embarrassed to say 300,000 yuan."
"This American is just like the old landlords in the past. When they see people, they say that our family only eats fine grains. When they soak the shit, they are covered with corn kernels." As soon as this said, it made several people laugh.
"Eating corn means eating corn. If you say 5 million, you can only take out 300,000 in the end..." The township repeated the numbers again.
After a few seconds, the township cadres present suddenly became a little stupid.
"Hey, what I just said was 300,000?" The township chief repeated the third time.
The cadre next to "USD." added a sentence.
"Americans give 300,000 US dollars?" The village chief looked at Yang Rui suspiciously and unconfidently, not knowing whether his ears were wrong or his mouth was wrong.
Yang Rui could only show a kind smile, say hello to everyone, and return to the bedroom.
The cadres who worked hard in Xizhaizi Township all their lives sighed.
"Old Secretary, Secretary Yang, we really have to build this development zone." The township chief sighed with emotion: "Look at what young people do now, and then look at what we do, it's too bad."
"Yes, Secretary Yang, we will definitely support you and build the development zone."
"Build it, and you have to build it even if you sell it."
Everyone finally found the opportunity to show their loyalty. They raised their arms one by one and flew in the air, hoping to dig out the air and build a house.
