Bai Zhenning went back in frustration after finishing his experiment.

The difference between current graduate students and later generations, a professor often only takes two or three students, which is equivalent to only one person a year. This is still a professor at Peking University. In many schools with poor levels, many professors have not been qualified as a master's supervisor so far, and there is no way to talk about leading graduate students.

After the expansion of graduate enrollment, let alone ordinary professors, many associate professors have to lead more than a dozen graduate students, which is similar to the number of undergraduate students in the 1980s.

These two differences, in addition to representing the differences in faculty, also mean that the relationship between professors and students is different.

Professors and graduate students in the era of enrollment for graduate students were a relationship between students and teachers. Before that, it was originally a master-apprentice relationship.

If you offend your master, you will naturally be more serious than offending your teacher.

Bai Zhenning left the laboratory, went straight to the dormitory, and went to settle the score with Wang Yaping.

If you have to find a channel to vent your ideas and results of scammers.

Professor Cheng Shi watched the students packed the lab and left, sat in the office, opened the documents, and started reading.

One reason why the boss of the laboratory is called the boss is that he has busy documents.

When they reach a super awesome level, many professors only design experiments instead of doing experiments themselves because they don’t have enough time. Most of their experiment time is spent on fundraising and management, and many people will have countless social activities after becoming famous.

In addition to being busy with his laboratory work, Cheng Shi also served as the responsibilities of several school committees, so he naturally had endless documents.

On weekdays, Cheng Shi used the space where the experiment ended to write something, but today, he unconsciously thought of the article Bai Zhenning gave him.

The ability of undergraduates at Peking University to achieve this level is somewhat beyond Cheng Shi's imagination.

"Yang Rui... the student who sent the paper two days ago..." Cheng Shi thought about it and flipped up the documents on the desk.

As Yang Rui expected, although Cheng Shi met him under Wang Yaping's introduction, he did not take the time to read his paper.

Even if he is not that busy, he doesn't want to spend his rare leisure on students' papers.

Unless this paper is worth reading.

Cheng Shi quickly found a single copy sent by Yang Rui.

Two papers obtained by graduate student Bai Zhenning are also included, followed by Yang Rui’s previous papers.

Cheng Shi continued to watch quickly or slowly.

It took about thirty or forty minutes before Cheng Shi read Yang Rui's paper roughly.

He got up and brewed a cup of strong tea for himself, sat back on the chair, savored the tea, muttering in his heart: Yang Rui has a good paper and is published in foreign journals, but there is some uncertainty.

As I thought about it, I finished drinking a cup of strong tea.

Cheng Shi stood up to refill the water again, and by the way he found Yang Rui's application for funding.

After hesitating for a moment, Cheng Shi put the application form and Yang Rui's paper together and put it in his briefcase.

Friday.

The project application committee meeting of Peking University was held in peace.

This is a closed-door meeting. The applicants are mainly young teachers in the school. Occasionally, students will apply for it. However, whether it is a teacher or a student, the school’s project application is regarded as a transition.

Because the school has limited resources and not much funds available for allocation, most of the projects applied directly to the school are small projects, which can be said to be a test work for young people.

If you are confident in the project, even young teachers will try to apply for provincial or departmental projects, that is, find money from Beijing, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Machinery and other units. Of course, the more powerful ones are national projects. The so-called large projects are usually indispensable for the central government to pay money directly.

As for the school itself, the amount of scientific research funds it announced is actually included in the amount applied by the school professor himself. The appropriations received by the school itself are not enough for everyone.

Moreover, in order to support some key projects, schools often make up for the remaining part after the professor receives financial support at a certain level. Compared with the school projects applied by young teachers, this part of the funds are used more.

Therefore, although the total amount of funds involved is not small, the project application committee does not provide much funds to a single project. It is not very important for the professors on the committee to pass or fail to pass.

"Let's start with the first item." The chairman of the committee was An Linhai, an academician. He looked at his watch and announced the meeting in a stuck time.

"This is an application from the Department of Physics." The clerk on the right opened the folder, took a pen and drew a thread on the first name, saying: "The applicant Li Mingtang, an assistant teaching assistant in the Department of Physics, applied for reworking two experiments for teaching, and the application fund was 500 yuan, and the experiments were..."

The application is simple to write and easier to read. After reading it in 30 seconds, the chairman asked: "Raise your hand if you agree to the application."

The professors around the conference table raised their hands in scattering hands, the clerk counted and said, "More than half of the people agreed, the chairman."

"Just give 200 yuan of funds." The chairman cut most of the funds applied for.

The professors did not object, and the clerk recorded it.

"The second one." The chairman urged immediately.

The clerk hurriedly said: "This is an application from the Department of Geology..."

Cheng Shi half-squinted his eyes, raised his hands or drank tea, as if he was in a state of rest.

At the end of the meeting, the clerk said the name of "Yang Rui" and said: "This is a student majoring in biology science in the Department of Biology. This year, he applied for molecular mechanism-related experiments and applied for funding...3,000 yuan. The experiment is for the verification of active proteins of sodium and potassium ions..."

He did not read out all of Yang Rui's resumes because he had sent them to every professor. If he wanted to read them, he could find them.

However, not many professors came to see it carefully.

Although some people have collected a single-line book sent by Yang Rui, few of them have read it carefully, and now they remember even less.

"Raise your hand if you agree." The Chairman said nothing redundant.

While looking around, Cheng Shi raised his hand.

Yang Rui's paper is better than most young teachers, so it is naturally worth getting funding.

Most of the other professors hesitated for a moment before someone raised their hands.

The clerk counted and said unexpectedly: "More than half of the people agreed."

"Then pass, if the funds are paid..." The Chairman hesitated.

Cheng Shi coughed and said, "Chairman, please speak."

"Oh, Lao Cheng? You said." The chairman is also a professor at the school and is more familiar with Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi nodded, pushed the teacup in front of him, and said, "I read Yang Rui's paper carefully yesterday and thought two of them were quite exciting. I recommend everyone to read it..."

Most professors do not read related papers. Those who can take a look at their names on their resumes are serious.

However, with Cheng Shi's recommendation, everyone will read it with some face.

Cheng Shi pushed the two papers he had in his hands to the chairman.

The latter roughly looked through it and asked, "Lao Cheng, what about your opinion?"

"I think Yang Rui is still a freshman and has 4 years left in school, so we should support him more. I think his thesis level is qualified to apply for department-level projects, but as a student, our school gives a relatively high evaluation, which may be helpful to him." Cheng Shi did not know Yang Rui, but guessed Yang Rui's idea.

According to the current requirements in China, any project must be in an organization. Teachers or professors can apply for project approval in the name of the school, but students can only apply for project approval from the school first, because the student's identity is only useful in the school.

When other departments evaluate school projects, they often refer to the school's evaluation.

The chairman pondered for a moment and nodded, "Then give him 2,000 yuan."

Although 1,000 yuan was cut, this was already a high fund issued by the school.
