Yang Rui, who is valued by Wang Yongyou, is also valued by other professors. Everybody wants to recommend people to Richard.

Because it's a shortcut.

Following Wang Yong, Lu Yueping, another Niu Pai female professor in the Department of biology, said with pride, "Richard, I recommend my student Zhu Jiahao. This year, he is a third year in University. She not only has very good grades, but also has completed a very high-level paper under my guidance, It was published in plant science. Your topic just coincides with his study direction. I'd like to show you... "

In front of Wang Yong, Lu Yueping gave some papers to Richard, then turned around and said with a smile, "Professor Wang, do you mind?"

"Good men don't fight women." Wang yongyang gave way.

Richard looked at them with a smile and said, "you know, the purpose of my recruitment of interns is to assist me in doing experiments. This is a one-time job. The time is less than one year, maybe only half a year. I can't promise anything."

"Zhu Jiahao is a junior this year. He still has one and a half years to graduate. The time is just right." Lu Yueping continued to recommend.

Richard nodded with a smile and said, "the answer to the paper is really perfect. Did he finish it himself?"

"I can guarantee that I will never give him the title. Besides, I don't know the title." Lu Yueping looks serious.

"You don't know the title? Oh, right. However, I don't mean that I don't trust you. I just hope that you can convey correct information to students, such as my laboratory management regulations and my requirements for interns. I am not sure how long I will stay in China, so the internship time is not fixed. " Richard was a little wordy, and his speed was even slower, which made him anxious.

Lu Yueping and Wang Yongqi nod and stare at him.

Richard looked down with a smile and finished the paper they had brought. He said, "I agree with you. Yang Rui and Zhu Jiahao can be my interns."

"I won't let you down." Lu Yueping is very happy. Although Richard repeatedly reiterated that he would not have any promises, it was a good opportunity after all.

For Chinese students in the 1980s, the only way out is to send foreign students to public schools, and it is more difficult to enter famous universities. Even a letter of recommendation from Richard can be quite useful when everyone has equal opportunities.

The people recommended by Lu Yueping and Wang Yong were recognized by Richard and satisfied. Wang Yong then took out other people's papers and said, "these are the papers passed by my class. The rest will come in the afternoon. You can have a look first."

Lu Yueping also brought out some test papers.

Richard sat down with a smile and looked up. He plans to recruit three interns in total. Lu Yueping and Wang Yong each recommend one, which means that only one of the remaining students has a chance to stand out. Naturally, this is unfair, but Richard doesn't care.

afternoon.

Wang Yong specially called Yang Rui. First, he asked him in a low voice, and then said, "Richard is going to recruit some interns. The additional questions you did in the test paper are given by Richard. You answered very well, and I'll help you. Richard agrees to recruit you as his intern."

Yang Rui was in a hurry at that time: "isn't this seeking skin with a tiger? I'm not going

"Don't worry." Wang Yong pressed his hands and said: "this is a good thing. First of all, Richard's laboratory is in good condition. The school arranges his laboratory according to the standard of first-class professor. Richard himself will apply for some equipment and funds. In addition, Richard is a professor at the University of California Berkeley. If you do well, you will apply to the University of California Berkeley to study in the future? Don't you want to study abroad? "

"Richard is not so kind." Yang Rui doesn't believe it at all.

Wang Yong is a good man. He patted Yang Rui on the shoulder and said, "people are all flesh. If you accompany Richard to do the experiment for half a year, he will certainly change his attitude towards you. Besides, since he agrees to join his team, he doesn't care about your rudeness two days ago."

"That's rude." Yang Rui muttered and shook his head: "I don't want to join Richard's team. I have my own business to do."

"You are a stubborn child." Wang Yong sighed and said, "this is a once-in-a-lifetime good opportunity. Don't think you can get it casually."

"I know."

"You don't want to study abroad?"

"Not really." Yang Rui didn't want to go, but it didn't conform to the mainstream values, so he hid it.

At present, the postgraduate education in China is very shallow, and the doctoral education is even shallower, which can not be compared with the level of education in Europe and America. On the other hand, studying abroad by the government is actually encouraged. If any student can be admitted as a graduate student by the government, it means that the state will offer you 2.3 million or more. In addition to the excellent living conditions abroad and the wage level of tens of times and hundreds of times, we will strive for such an opportunity.Wang yonghuan breathed a sigh and said, "if you want to study abroad, you can't give up this opportunity. You know, the power of professors in the University of California is very great. A letter of recommendation from Richard is valuable. Although it's not too difficult for you to get a public student, a letter of recommendation may increase your chances of going to a famous university. "

"Professor Wang..."

"Yes?" Wang Yong, who was just talking hard, stopped.

"What are the requirements in Richard's lab? How are patents and ideas distributed? "

"Ah, I didn't ask about that. Generally, we can distribute it as we like." Wang Yong obviously didn't think patents were important. He turned to educate Yang Rui and said, "as long as the conditions of the laboratory are good, how many patents do you want? Don't be so obsessed with these useless things. "

Yang Rui is quite helpless.

Later professors, especially those in the Department of biology, are almost working for patents in their busy lives. The ultimate goal of a professor or graduate student is to develop a valuable patent, and then wear Armani to teach students every day.

Pharmaceutical companies also encourage university researchers to do patent research, because universities always have an advantage in basic research, and professors see that valuable patents are unprofitable for pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, they would rather spend hundreds of millions of dollars a year as sponsorship than carry out related research on their own.

Of course, pharmaceutical companies have always been very rich, and it's normal that they can't count on millions or tens of millions of dollars. Professors who earn tens of thousands of dollars a year are also very satisfied if they can lick millions of dollars of carrots.

Therefore, since the 1980s, the pattern of professors taking patents and pharmaceutical companies taking all has gradually formed.

China's patent system has always been backward, and it's normal for Wang never to understand it. He still remains in the mind of the older generation. Instead of language education, Yang Rui said, "what we do research, in the final analysis, is basic research. We should look far, but we should look close..."

"Professor, I really don't have time to be Richard's intern, Even if I don't care about patents, I have other jobs to be busy with, such as Professor Tang's laboratory and the projects I applied for myself. "

"Isn't your project finished and applied for acceptance?"

For a moment, Yang Rui was unable to speak.

Wang Yong added: "there are other people in the laboratory of Tangji, so you don't have to be busy. It's a good thing to study abroad. It's a big event. If you're embarrassed to say that, I'll tell Lao Tang. "

"No, no..." Yang Rui quickly stopped Wang Yong, thought about it, and simply said: "I want to do my own things, I don't want to be an intern any more."

"Sharpening the knife doesn't miss the firewood cutter..."

"Professor Wang, I really decided." Yang Rui repeatedly interrupted Wang Yong with a firm attitude.

Wang Yong couldn't persuade him. He went back to explain to Richard that he thought Richard would say two sarcastic words.

Unexpectedly, Richard took the initiative to say, "I'll invite Yang Rui myself."

Wang Yong was surprised, but he could not help admiring Richard, calling him "talent is the only way."

When the leaders of the biology department heard about this, they also felt that they had a bright face. The students of their own department were favored by foreign professors, and they had the intention of looking after the cottage. Naturally, this is a very long face, and it also shows that the education of the Department is good.

As a result, the department leader simply went over the school's publicity department and followed Richard to "invite" Yang Rui, ready to make a good play in which he would let Yang Rui accept again and again.
