Old Chu circled around the wall of the ion channel laboratory, circle after circle.

Liu Yuzhuang circled round and round the small garden adjacent to the ion channel laboratory.

The wall of the ion channel laboratory was no fun at all, but Lao Chu still went around firmly.

The small garden adjacent to the ion channel laboratory was lackluster, but Liu Yuzhuang still walked around firmly.

two laps.

three laps.

five laps.

seven laps.

Finally, both of them understood each other's purpose.

"Old Chu, you must have read the news." Liu Yuzhuang lacked exercise on weekdays, and only felt that his legs and feet were weak.

Old Chu's slender body helped him, and he stood on the spot and moved around a few times. Old Chu smiled and said, "What news?"

"Don't pretend, the news about the ion channel laboratory, they are going to get 20 million funding, you also like it, right?"

"It's all about releasing satellites." Old Chu said with a smile, "20 million is not so easy to apply for."

Liu Yuzhuang chuckled, and said, "Nominations for the Nobel Prize, 20 million is nothing. Didn't Academician Zhao just apply for 48 million a few months ago?"

"The 48 million that Academician Zhao applied for is the estimated funding for the next 9 years. Only 8 million will be given in the first year, and 5 million will be given every year thereafter. The 20 million that Yang Rui wants is the first year's funding. It is estimated..." Old Chu stopped talking here.

Liu Yuzhuang continued with a smile, and said, "It's estimated that the amount is too large, so I dare not say it?"

"The country is so difficult now, there is no money like this."

"Two more biology institutes will be abolished, and there will be money." Liu Yuzhuang said calmly: "As far as these biology institutes in Beijing can't be made in ten years, I guess they won't be able to publish even a cell in another ten years. , to stay or not to stay, what’s the difference? If this is the United States, in terms of the production rate of domestic scientific research institutes, it’s good to survive 30%.”

"Look at what you said, we can be compared with the United States. We are a socialist country. If the scientific research institutes are abolished, where will the people go?"

"That is to say, so I can only hang on half-dead, and I don't need to pay for scientific research funds. If the scientific research requirements are slightly raised, I will raise them like pigs, just like the two of us [Zong Qiongyao] Twelve reborn." Liu Yuzhuang's tone was cold .

Old Chu also fell silent for a while, and said, "I estimate that Yang Rui can get 3 million in the first year, a little more than 4 million is fine. Half of Academician Zhao is not eye-catching."

"Nominated for the Nobel Prize, 4 million yuan a year." Liu Yuzhuang suddenly laughed and asked, "Do you think it's funny?"

Old Chu fell silent again.

It has been 84 years now, and the tide of studying abroad after the reform and opening up has passed two times. Scholars who have returned from abroad, as well as exchanges with foreign countries, allow Chinese scholars to easily understand the situation abroad. Now there are even some periodicals that specialize in translating foreign documents and introducing foreign situations, commonly known as foreign translations.

Lao Chu and Liu Yuzhuang, who are in Tsinghua University, naturally know the scale of foreign funding.

Not to mention second-tier scholars like Nobel Prize nominees, but tenured professors from prestigious schools like Richard, who belong to the fourth-tier scholars, apply for two million dollars a year, just like playing.

In terms of purchasing power, two million dollars is used for scientific research,

It is much easier to use than 20 million RMB.

To say that this is not recognized in China, if Richard casually fooled Professor Pang, Peking University gave him several million dollars in funding. If the results were achieved at that time, it would not be surprising to invest all the way up to 20 million. This is not counting the laboratory. The infrastructure, land rent, and the value of the attached personnel and seconded equipment.

If it is a third-tier scholar, it will be even more powerful, more than ten times stronger than a fourth-tier scholar.

Richard tried his best to publish a high-level paper on CNS. Of course, he must have published a paper on CNS before, otherwise it would be difficult to reach the fourth level, but for him, high-level High-level papers are still hard to come by. It is possible to publish a few papers in a lifetime, or even rely on one cell for a lifetime.

The chair professors of prestigious schools have already published papers in top journals until they are soft-handed. Their goal of publishing papers must be and only top journals. For example, before Shi Yigong returned to China, CNS published more than 20 papers , more than one article a year on average.

But no matter what level of scholars, top journals are piled up with money.

In 1984, when I went to a prestigious school in Europe and the United States, I caught a principal and asked, "Is it worth $20 million for a thesis?" The principal must have said that it was too expensive. Are you pulling for gold? But if you ask "Is it worth two million dollars for a thesis?", the principal will definitely say that his wife is cheap, you squat down, and I will help you get the gold.

In the final analysis, scholars look at the achievements. Regardless of whether Yang Rui can be nominated for the Nobel Prize, his achievements are at the Nobel Prize level. In this regard, as time goes by and the number of citations increases, the Chinese academic circle also looks at it. more and more clearly.

If there are geographical issues in the political and business circles, the academic circles don't talk about them at all.

Academia is the most standard place in the world. In the face of the same achievements, there may be a gap in the treatment of scholars from the United States and scholars in the United States, but the gap in academic recognition is minimal.

Therefore, Yang Rui asked for 20 million, which is indeed a lot in China, and academicians only applied for a few million.

However, whether an academician from a third world country can be regarded as a fourth-level scholar depends on whether someone [comprehensive] wears it as Ogino Chihiro.

Therefore, from a global perspective, Yang Rui needs 20 million, which is really not much.

It's just that China is too poor.

However, both Lao Chu and Liu Yuzhuang could see clearly that the 20 million won't be given this year, but will be given next year. Unless China stops engaging in scientific research, otherwise, there is absolutely no reason for Yang Rui to starve and instead raise pigs in a scientific research institute.

"Let's go, let's go in together." After talking, Liu Yuzhuang also became generous.

Old Chu smiled wryly, quickly looked left and right, followed Liu Yuzhuang and knocked on the door of the ion channel laboratory.

"Who are you looking for?" Another scientific research dog poked his head out, with a crew cut and a cute tiger head.

"We want to see Director Yang." Liu Yuzhuang spoke through the small window on the big iron gate.

The heavy-headed scientific researcher Wang said "Oh" and asked, "Do you have a work permit? What does Yang Rui do?"

"Work permit... yes." Liu Yuzhuang hesitated, took out his work permit, and said, "I want to discuss some academic issues with Director Yang."

Wang Yiwang, a scientific researcher with a tiger head and a tiger brain, was an associate professor at Tsinghua University, and immediately said in awe: "Okay, come in, please wait in the yard."

The iron gate was pulled open with a squeak, and the aggressive scientific researcher Wang smiled and said, "My name is Wang Lei. I'm going to report now. Please sit down and rest."

There was no one else in the yard, but there were a few chairs scattered in order, and there was a wooden tea table and a kettle in front of it.

Liu Yuzhuang sat down on the chair and made tea with the mentality of being safe when he came.

"With some fruit snacks." A girl came over with a plate, which contained two oranges and two apples, as well as a stack of mung bean cakes and a stack of white crisps, orange, red, green and white, accompanied by a light blue plate , It's really beautiful.

"Please use it." The girl gestured with her hand, and said, "It's all free. If it's not enough, just indicate it, and I'll send it over."

After speaking, she saw her go back to a room in the side wing. The house was lit with white walls, and the girl was sitting facing the window, half of her body exposed, with her head lowered, not knowing what she was busy with.

"Did you say hello before you came?" Liu Yuzhuang asked Lao Chu because he didn't understand.

Old Chu shook his head: "How can it be, I wish no one would know. You should be the same too."

"Yeah, if I hadn't met you... Hey, that guy from Beili came out just now." Liu Yuzhuang said, covering half of his face so as not to be recognized by others.

But Old Chu stood up and said hello, "Comrade, what's going on inside?"

The people from Beili sneered twice, and said, "If I were you guys, I would leave as soon as possible."

"Why?" Lao Chu asked again, and everyone got on their bicycles and left.

"Come with me, both of you." The aggressive scientific research Wang Wanglei came back again, smiling like a sharpie.

"It's all here... let's go." Liu Yuzhuang stood up with a face like an envoy entering the enemy's camp.
