Bai Zhenning finished a day's experiment and went back in frustration.

Today's graduate students are different from those of later generations. A professor often has two or three students, which is equivalent to an average of only one student a year. This is also a professor of Peking University. In many low-level schools, many professors have not yet obtained the qualification of master's tutor, and it is impossible to lead graduate students.

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

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

Professors and postgraduates in the era of graduate enrollment expansion are the relationship between students and teachers.; Before that, it was a teacher apprentice relationship.

Offending the master is naturally more serious than offending the teacher.

Bai Zhenning out of the laboratory, straight to the dormitory, to find Wang Yaping accounts.

The idea of pit father and the result of pit father, always want to find a channel to vent.

Professor Cheng Shi watched as the students packed up the lab and left. He sat down in the office, opened the papers and looked at them.

The reason why the boss of the laboratory is called the boss is that the papers are busy.

At the super level, many professors only design experiments instead of doing them in person, because there is not enough time. Most of their experimental time is spent on fund-raising and management. Many people will have numerous social activities after they become famous.

In addition to busy with his own laboratory work, Cheng Shi also took on the responsibilities of several committees of the school. Naturally, he couldn't finish reading the documents.

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

The undergraduate students of Peking University can achieve this level, more or less beyond Cheng Shi's imagination.

"Yang Rui... The student who sent the paper two days ago..." Cheng Shi turned his mind around and turned over the document on his desk.

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

Even if he is not so busy, he doesn't want to spend his spare time on a piece of students' papers.

Unless it's worth reading.

Cheng Shi quickly turned out the pamphlet sent by Yang Rui.

The two papers that graduate student Bai Zhenning brought are among them, followed by those published by Yang Rui.

Cheng Shi watched it quickly or slowly.

It took about 30 to 40 minutes for Cheng Shi to read Yang Rui's paper.

He got up and made himself a cup of strong tea. He sat back in his chair and sipped his tea. He muttered to himself: Yang Rui's papers are well written and published in foreign journals, but they are uncertain.

Think about, a cup of strong tea to drink up.

Cheng Shi gets up again to continue water and finds out Yang Rui's fund application by the way.

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

Friday.

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

This is a closed door meeting. The applicants are mainly young teachers of the school, and occasionally students apply. However, both teachers and students regard the project application of the school as a transition.

Because of the limited resources of the school and the limited funds available for allocation, most of the projects directly applied to the school are small projects, which can be said to be the work of young people.

If you are confident in projects, even young teachers will try to apply for provincial or departmental projects, that is, to get 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 big projects are usually directly funded by the central government.

As for the university itself, the amount of scientific research funds announced by the University actually includes the amount applied by the university professors themselves. The funds allocated to the school itself are not enough for everyone to use.

Moreover, in order to support some key projects, schools often make up for the rest after professors get a certain level of financial support. Compared with the school projects applied by young teachers, the amount of funds in this part is larger.

Therefore, although the total amount of funds involved is not small, the funds given to a single project by the project application committee are not much. Whether the application is passed or not is not very important to the professors of the Committee.

"Start with the first one." The chairman of the committee is associate academician an Linhai. He looked at his watch and announced the meeting at a fixed time."This is an application from the physics department." The clerk on the right opened the folder, drew a pen on the first name, and said: "the applicant Li Mingtang, assistant of physics department, applied to redo two experiments for teaching, and applied for 500 yuan. The experiments are..."

The application is simple to write and easier to read. After 30 seconds, the chairman asked, "those who agree to the application raise their hands."

The professors around the conference table raised their hands. The clerk counted them and said, "more than half of them agree, chairman."

"Just 200 dollars." The chairman cut most of the application funds.

There was no objection from the professors, and the clerk recorded it.

"Second." The chairman then urged.

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

Cheng Shi half narrowed his eyes, or raised his hand or drank tea, as if in a state of rest.

At the end of the meeting, the clerk named "Yang Rui" and said: "this is a freshman majoring in bioscience in the Department of biology. He applied for molecular mechanism related experiments and applied for funds of 3000 yuan. The experiment is the verification of active protein of sodium and potassium ions..."

He didn't read out all Yang Rui's resumes, Because the resume has been sent to every professor, if you want to see it, you can find it.

However, there are not many professors who go to see it seriously.

Although some people have received the pamphlet from Yang Rui, few of them have read it seriously, and even fewer of them remember it now.

"Raise your hands if you agree." The chairman said nothing superfluous.

Cheng Shi looked around and raised his hand.

Yang Rui's paper is better than most of the young teachers, so it's worth the money.

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

The clerk counted again and said unexpectedly, "more than half of the people agreed."

"Then pass it, if you want to pay for it..." the chairman hesitated.

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

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

Cheng Shi nodded, pushed the cup in front of him and said, "I read Yang Rui's papers carefully yesterday, and I think two of them are quite wonderful. I recommend you to read them..."

Most professors don't read relevant papers. If they can look at their names on their resumes, they belong to the serious school.

However, there is Cheng Shi's recommendation, we will give some face to read.

Cheng Shi pushed his two papers to the chairman.

The latter looked over it and asked, "Lao Cheng, what's your opinion?"

"I think Yang Rui is still a freshman and has four years left in school. We should support him more. I think he is qualified to apply for department level projects, but as a student, our school gives him a relatively high evaluation, which may also help him. " Cheng Shi doesn't know Yang Rui, but he guesses what Yang Rui thinks.

According to the current domestic requirements, any project must have a unit. Teachers or professors can apply for the project in the name of the school, but students can only apply to the school first, because the identity of students 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, nodded and said, "then give him 2000 yuan."

Although still cut 1000 yuan, but this is the high funds issued by the school.
