Chapter 483

Yang Rui signed several faxes and arranged for James to help him register the buffer patent. According to his contract with his lawyer, the latter will help him to register a series of patents in major countries in the world.

At the same time, Yang Rui sorted out a few reagents he had used recently, found out those that were not recorded, and asked a lawyer to register and apply for a patent.

It's not that reagents without records will be patented.

Patent submarine tactics are popular in biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry, that is, when new technology or new drug is invented, only patent application is carried out, but patent approval is not promoted. When competitors or other companies develop the same patent and spend a huge amount of money, they use the advantage of earlier registration time to rush through the patent.

In this way, it is more or less harmful to others, but in the fierce competition in the biological and pharmaceutical world, the patented submarine is already a conventional tactic, just like a mine. If large companies have to spend money to avoid stepping on it, they have to bury it and wait for others to step on it. Small biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies are miserable, often spending millions of dollars, two or three years, As a result, we are caught in the endless patent litigation, and we may not be able to win.

This is one of the reasons why Yang Rui has never entered the field of medicine. In the final analysis, coenzyme Q10 is a production process. There are not too many mines to step on. If it is replaced with a new drug, Yang Rui's small body will probably fall into the minefield and never come up with it in his life.

It will also cost Yang Rui tens of thousands of dollars to apply for and register a patent. If only this cost is included, ordinary Chinese can't afford to play the patent game of foreigners at all. At present, it seems that Yang Rui's expenditure to recover the buffer solution is far away.

After all, there is no sales or production channel under his name.

However, most biotechnology companies do this. They gradually accumulate patents. When they accumulate more, they look for venture capital to invest. When the venture capital is almost spent, they start to seek listing. If the listing fails, they will go bankrupt and then go bankrupt. The whole process is the same as that of Internet companies.

Sometimes, large pharmaceutical companies will acquire individual patents or even the whole biotechnology company. For companies with good living conditions, this is a good opportunity to recover costs and even make a big profit. For companies on the verge of bankruptcy, this is the time when they have no choice but to be slaughtered.

But in any case, the accumulation of patents, like the accumulation of papers, is an indispensable work in the biological system, perhaps not the most important, but also indispensable.

Yang Rui will clear the laboratory, but aroused everyone's interest.

The next day, Tang Jianji came in a hurry and asked about Yang Rui's patent. He said, "you should be more careful when you apply for a patent for something made in school. If you are sued, you may be in trouble."

"To the school?" Yang Rui asked predictably. When he was a graduate student, all the things he made were owned by his tutor or school. Of course, he didn't make anything in the end. He felt that he saved a lot of money.

Tang Jianji was stunned for a moment. He quickly shook his head and said, "I don't mean that. I mean, you'd better not apply for your own patent with the funds provided by the school, and it's not that you can't apply for it... Ah, it's a muddle headed account, but you can't hire a lawyer. There's no precedent for the school to pay you a lawyer's fee."

Yang Rui was surprised: "it means that what I do in the laboratory can be patented? As long as it doesn't cost the lawyer's fees? "

"It's hard to say, so it's a muddle headed account, but you see, ZhongGuanCun computer industry is not always like this?" Tang concentrated on looking at Yang Rui, blinked and said, "you are still young. If I suggest you, don't put your mind on it. The national policy can't be explained. In case of any change, don't let yourself suffer."

"Oh... The lawyer I hired paid by myself. Is there any problem that the patent application is in my own name?"

It was probably the first time for Tang to meet the researcher who spent his own lawyer's fees. He hesitated for a moment and said, "will the lawyer's fees be very expensive?"

"It's not cheap anyway." Although Yang Rui is a local tyrant, he doesn't spend tens of thousands of dollars indiscriminately. If it doesn't work, it's better to use the money to do experiments.

When Tang Jianji heard that he said it was not cheap, he knew that it must be really not cheap, so he thought: "it certainly doesn't matter if you apply in your own name, or who else you apply to... However, if you want to apply for reimbursement with the school, Professor Cai can't approve it. Your ticket is different."

"I'm not prepared for reimbursement." Yang Rui smiles bitterly.

"It can't be reimbursed, and you don't want to collect patent fees from the school." Tang Jianji knows more about this information and whispers: "the school misers certainly don't want to spend money on things they can't see. They would rather give you funds than this money, and they can't repay.""I'm not going to collect royalties from the school either." How much patent fee can a school pay? Yang Rui really doesn't like it.

Tang Jianji didn't care if he really thought so. When he heard that, he nodded and said, "just be clear in your heart. You just published the cell, and many people are staring at it. By the way, do you have any candidates for the associate professor in your laboratory?"

"No. A few people came yesterday, but no one signed up

"I say you'd better talk to them yourself. I don't have an associate professor in my lab. if you want someone to come to work in your lab, you have to be calm, don't you think so? "

Yang Rui is a little embarrassed. Needless to say, it must have been the "my lab is up to me" that he called out yesterday. For today's people, it can be called arrogance.

However, since he has already taken a step forward, Yang Rui is not allowed to withdraw. He does not need an associate professor to be his deputy. This is more because Professor Cai is not confident that he will lead a laboratory independently.

Compared with the help of an associate professor, Yang Rui is more concerned about his authority in the laboratory.

As a scientific researcher, he can be submissive to the leadership, can laugh at home, can murmur in front of students, but he absolutely wants to establish the authority of the laboratory.

Scientific research can be discussed, but experiments must be authoritative. The two researchers have different opinions. When they complete their own experiments in the laboratory, they always find out right and wrong. But in the process of any experiment, left and right swing is taboo.

When the experiment can't be carried out according to the established steps, success or failure is meaningless, because you don't know why you succeed or why you fail. There is no scientific significance. Biotechnology is not traditional Chinese medicine.

Instead of inviting the associate professor, Yang Rui waited for the associate professor to come and said, "I'm not in a hurry to have my own laboratory. Can I stay with you for a while?"

As soon as Tang's eyes brightened, he immediately said, "as long as you want to stay, my funds can also be allocated to you."

"Then I'm not polite. I'll make some achievements first, and then I'll see how everyone's attitude is." Yang Rui is very confident, others do a JMC level paper to take one or two years as a unit, he is now doing this paper, maybe not even a month.

This speed, as long as the publication of the journal is not too bad, will eventually attract people.

Phoenix trees are planted by Wutong trees. The only way to continue scientific research life, inherit scientific research heritage and burn scientific research life is thesis.

No one cares what Hawking looks like, no one cares how greedy Edison is, and no one cares how silent Chen Jingrun is. The paper is the most convincing.

At the beginning, the associate professor will naturally lose face, but most of the time, face is not as valuable as imagined. In the same school, those who have made great achievements will always hold their heads high. Those who lack achievements will have to bow down to borrow instruments, apply for funds and evaluate professional titles

The 20-year-old in the office dares to laugh at the unknown scientific research ape. Compared with joining Yang Rui's independent laboratory, such humiliation is nothing.

Tang Jianji is more willing to let Yang Rui stay in his laboratory. He doesn't expect to hang his own name, but as long as the name of Tang Jianji's laboratory can be hung up, this is a huge benefit.

Nowadays, Tang concentrated on applying for the National Laboratory.

Yang Rui also wants to help. His own laboratory has not been built yet, and the unit column is empty.

With the support of Tang Jizhong, Yang Rui speeded up the experiment. In a few days, he sent the preliminary data to the computer department of the school.

Here, there is a huge amount of data to be processed, another slow and long team.
