Scientific research has never been a warm world.

Scientists are rational creatures, their emotions may be strong, maybe at some time, they will be ejected like volcanic eruption, but most of the time, scientists are calm looking at the mouse, and then neatly break its neck image.

"Warmth" and "modesty" are not valuable qualities of scientists.

The valuable qualities of scientists are wise insight and calm thinking.

However, modesty and warmth have always been the scarce qualities of scientists.

Just like Professor Wang Yong, Yang Rui likes him, and most people like him. Although he can't get more funds for this, and even in some cases, these scarce qualities can't even help a scholar keep his job, they must be the most popular qualities among his colleagues.

No one wants a cool and cruel colleague.

Yang Rui's warmth and modesty are beyond Xu Zhengping's expectation.

In fact, it was beyond everyone's expectation.

Funding and achievements have always been the lifeblood of researchers. Without funding, no achievements can be made, and no researcher is a waste.

And funding and results have never been isolated.

It's a beautiful closed loop that funds make achievements and achievements get funds. How can we give our own achievements to others? How can funded researchers do this?

Xu Zhengping watched young Yang Rui, and countless thoughts floated in his heart.

It is the common understanding of young scientists that they should be proud of their talents.

There has never been a lack of genius in the field of natural science. There are few young people who become famous, but few of them have the talent to publish the cell. Xu Zhengping can't find a reference, but he knows that he likes Yang Rui's method.

Although it is not economical and practical, he likes Yang Rui's method.

Yang Rui is at a loss about the psychological changes of the people around him. Unlike what Xu Zhengping and others have seen, Yang Rui doesn't think he is a peerless genius. Of course, he still has a little talent. His previous graduate work and his time as a tutor give Yang Rui great confidence.

Unfortunately, the road of Xueba has always been narrower and narrower. Yang Rui has to do his best to avoid being left far behind.

He won't bother to move a bunch of short-term projects back to his laboratory.

It was uncertain when he would get his own independent laboratory. Without his own independent laboratory, Yang Rui would have to stay in Tang central laboratory. Since at that time, he was satisfied with the returns brought by these short and quick projects, he is naturally satisfied now.

"Let's look at the project." Yang Rui digs off the topic.

"Yes, look at the project." Xu Zhengping also adjusted his mood and made a good introduction. He was more serious and happy with the introduction.

As a matter of fact, these short-term and quick projects, while brushing Yang Rui's reputation, also bring great benefits to Xu Zhengping.

In just a few months, Xu Zhengping published more papers than in previous years.

Although all of them are SCI entry-level, the impact factor is no more than 4. 0 papers, but in another tone, it should be like this: These are all goddamn SCI papers.

If he was not in Peking University, Xu Zhengping would be able to toss a professor's title back.

Even in Peking University, the number of Xu Zhengping's papers exceeds the average standard. If one or two of these papers can be directly used to apply for professors, there is still a good chance.

Of course, the safest way is to publish high-level papers. However, if the goal of a project is too high, it is likely that it can not be done. If it is done slowly, it is likely that it will be preempted. Even if everything goes according to the plan, high-level journals will suddenly draw wind and refuse to accept it, which is also a headache.

Generally speaking, if a person has completed three major projects, he must be able to write at least two high-level papers. But if a person has only done one major project, whether he can have a high-level paper is always probabilistic.

As for those who write a big paper on a project and publish a high impact factor Journal on a big paper, there are not all of them

Xu Zhengping's eyes unconsciously cruise on Yang Rui.

Among the people he knows, Yang Rui is definitely the best one who can do targeted research.

Once the brain hole is opened, it can't be closed any more.Like a slide show, Xu Zhengping began to flash through the papers and projects written by Yang Rui one by one.

In total, Yang Rui's papers as the first author have already passed the 50 mark. In his early stage, he published about 20 papers in the SCI entry-level "biochemistry system ecology".

After entering Peking University, the number of Yang Rui's papers has not decreased, but the quality has improved significantly.

Moreover, unlike a teacher at Peking University, Yang Rui's support mainly came from a company called Jielikang. Later, Guoyi foreign trade also gave money, and the Department of biology at Peking University also gave money, but that's what happened in the past six months.

What really supports Yang Rui to continue his research is success.

Xu Zhengping carefully recalled that Yang Rui's project did not seem to have failed.

In fact, if an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences Wins a professor of the University of California in the scientific research competition, it's worth reading.

On the contrary, it was Yang Rui's victory that made everyone at a loss.

There are many scholars who make a project into a project, especially in the current domestic environment, those who can not bear the failure can only succeed.

But as far as Yang Rui's current identity is concerned, his success has stronger credibility.

"How's the thermophilic program you're working on?" Xu Zhengping knows that this is a big project. Although he does not know the main content of the project, the scale of the project is not small in terms of funds, time and attention.

Yang Rui looked at him in surprise and said with a smile, "Huarui lab is doing it. It's Huang Mao. At present, it's quite smooth."

"You're not involved?"

"I run the project." That's what the corresponding author plus the first author means.

It's all in the 1980s. Several people have been working on a project as the foundation. It's becoming less and less possible to be the first author of a project. Especially in biology, the progress is too fast and the requirements are too high.

Xu Zhengping hesitated and asked, "what about your independent laboratory? Do you want to start a new project? "

"Of course, we have to open it. What we are doing now will be done in a new laboratory in the future."

"These projects are very good, but they are trivial." The implication is that Xu Zhengping is idle.

Yang Rui nodded with a smile and said: "the funds are not much now. It can only be so for the time being."

Of course, he won't say that the current projects are all laying the foundation for genomics.

However, the foundation is only the foundation after all. No matter how well he does it, he is only an excellent brick porter. It's normal that Xu Zhengping doesn't want to do it. After all, he has accumulated a lot of small papers.

Two or three months ago, Xu Zhengping was still happy about the number of papers he wrote, but when the number increased, he had new requirements.

People are like this. As time goes by, their ideas will inevitably change.

Xu Zhengping hesitated and said, "I still have some funds left."

As soon as the words came out, everyone who heard them fainted.

Yang Rui also looks at Xu Zhengping suspiciously.

"When your new lab is up, we can develop some bigger projects together." Xu Zhengping's chest is full of heat, which is the bravery of fighting and suddenly plays a role.

"It's easy to make the project bigger, but the results are not big..." Yang Rui stopped and hesitated: "would you like to work in my laboratory?"

"If you don't mind, let me help you in your laboratory." Xu Zhengping is smiling.

"How can you be disgusted." Yang Rui immediately took Xu Zhengping's hand. Xu Zhengping is in his prime, and he will be popular everywhere.

Both of them tacit understanding did not mention the joint construction of the laboratory. Now the independent laboratory has been approved. No matter how strong Xu Zhengping is, he can only be a small boss at ease.

This is different from working in the laboratory of tangjizhong. Although the content of the work is the same, in name, Xu Zhengping is in the laboratory of tangjizhong, and tangjizhong is an old professor after all.

It really takes some courage for Xu Zhengping to work in Yang Rui's laboratory.

Before, Professor Cai proposed to build a laboratory, which has not received a positive response. Now Yang Rui has got an independent laboratory, and Xu Zhengping comes in again, so the wind evaluation will not be pleasant.

The only thing that can change the views of the outside world is the results.

Therefore, Xu Zhengping has to work harder than Yang Rui. He not only increases his time in the laboratory again, but also consciously works as the supervisor of Yang Rui's laboratory.
