At lunchtime, grace came to Yang Rui with a plate. She sat down and asked, "is there anyone here?"

"No, no, welcome Miss grace." Huang Mao, who was at the same table, quickly got up and said, "I happen to have something..."

"Sit down. I want to have a chat with you." Grace sat down Huang Mao with her eyes.

Huang Mao inexplicably affected, obediently back to the position just now.

Tu Xian and Wang Xiaoyun, who originally wanted to leave, also looked at Grace curiously.

"I want to join your experimental group, OK?" Grace doesn't have any foreplay at all, just like her previous style.

Yang Rui put down his chopsticks and said, "do you mean Huarui laboratory?"

"Right."

"I'm afraid I can't provide your salary, and Huarui laboratory can't afford too much research funds." Yang Rui thought for a moment and said slowly.

Although grace often works for non-profit organizations, she is also a professor in Cambridge. No matter which job she takes, her annual salary is more than $30000.

As a matter of fact, if a professor of Cambridge university teaches to both departments and colleges, his income will exceed $100000.

At present, Huarui laboratory does not recruit foreign researchers, and simply offers grace tens of thousands of dollars, which Yang Rui thinks is not very appropriate.

Most importantly, Huarui laboratory can not afford to join such scholars as grace for the time being.

The salary should be put aside first. After any laboratory recruits coworkers, the first thing to come out should be research funds.

Yang Rui is not very clear about Grace's ability, but at the general level of Cambridge professors, it is perfectly normal to spend a million dollars a year on experiments.

If it's an ion channel laboratory, it's fair to spend millions of dollars a year to recruit a Cambridge professor to wait for the prize. Huarui laboratory is not a real non-profit laboratory. When grace, a scholar with a special personality, joins in, Yang Rui can't suppress it.

Grace naturally thought about this question and said, "what's the annual salary you can afford? I can take the same salary as Chinese scholars and accompany you to finish the project of iron ketone. How about that? "

Grace said this, surprised Yang Rui's chopsticks are not stable: "you don't want research funding?"

"I just want to help you to get rid of the iron ketone as soon as possible. As long as I am doing the iron ketone project, I can use the research funds of iron ketone to carry out related research."

"At present, the salary in China is very low, only more than 100 dollars a month." Yang Rui is not bluffing grace. Huang Mao and others are currently holding the highest salary of the laboratory, that is, more than 1000 yuan RMB. When they get full overtime pay, that is, 3000 yuan RMB is the most. When converted into US dollars, it is usually less than 500. Of course, the official price is more than that, but normal people can't exchange the official price for us dollars.

Grace thought of this and said calmly, "I can live with my savings. My life is not demanding. "

"I believe you, but..."

"Salary is not a problem." Grace said, "I just hope that desferridone will come out soon. I believe that with your ability, you can do it."

Grace feels great about Yang Rui.

She thinks that Yang Rui is the purest researcher she has ever met.

It's not easy to develop new drugs, and it's never cheap. The average cost of 100 million US dollars for full development or 10 million US dollars for half development exceeds the normal charity behavior.

Grace hasn't heard of any philanthropist or charity that would spend all her money to develop drugs for a disease that doesn't make money.

All drug development projects are profit oriented by pharmaceutical companies. Even if they are charitable organizations established for a certain disease, all they can do is urge and negotiate, and they are unable to lead drug development.

As an important member of Huarui company, Yang Rui carried out the work in person, which can be understood as his excellent technical level, and also as the person in charge of the project.

Grace can't imagine how many quarrels and arguments it takes, and how strong persuasion Yang Rui can make Huarui company resolutely invest in the research of desferridone.

No matter what it was, grace admired it.

Yang Rui didn't know what grace thought. He thought about it and said, "I can't guarantee anything..."

"I don't need your guarantee..."

"I can't guarantee the market launch of deferoxane, nor what step deferoxane can take. I can't guarantee the price of deferoxane after it goes on the market, There's no guarantee that desferridone will continue to work in our hands, you know? This is a very risky project, and it will ultimately be attributed to the capital. " What Yang Rui said is very detailed and realistic. He has the ability to complete preclinical research at a lower cost, which accounts for more than one third of new drug research, but for capital, this is only the first step of a long march.Not to mention the clinical phase I and phase II, which block 90% of the drugs on the market, only the extremely high cost of clinical phase III can block the wild hope of any small pharmaceutical company. After eight or nine trials, the cost is often quite US $100 million. Even so, FDA may not be able to pass the audit.

Outside the United States, the cost of clinical trials will not be low, and the cost of public relations may be higher

The development of new drugs is a bottomless hole. Yang Rui is now involved in it, which can be regarded as ambitious. The whole process of development is just beyond our grasp.

The future of deferonone can only be sold to large pharmaceutical companies after getting better data, just like the scientific research process of all small pharmaceutical companies.

This is the operation rule of the pharmaceutical system. Small biotech companies conduct research on one or two targets and do preclinical research. Large biotech companies conduct research on multiple targets and still do preclinical research. While doing research on biological targets, small pharmaceutical companies acquire target research from biotech companies, And carry out preliminary compound synthesis and even clinical research, but in the end, the drugs that want to go on the market almost have to go through the hands of large pharmaceutical companies.

In Europe and the United States, such a system is unbreakable. Only excellent capital can change the operation posture. In addition, no matter how strong the scholars are, they can only participate in films like famous directors in the Hollywood system, but can't dominate films. No matter how strong the biotechnology companies are, they can only make films like production companies, but can't distribute films, Only large pharmaceutical companies have the ability to operate the whole process and make all-round profits, just like the large distribution companies in Hollywood.

Grace pondered for a few seconds and said again, "I believe you."

Yang Rui was surprised and couldn't help asking, "why do you believe me?"

"With your ability, if it's to make money, you can choose other drugs, but you choose deferonone." Grace smiles a little and says, "as I said, you are an excellent scholar, but first of all you are a fighter..."

"Fighter, I can't talk about it."

"Maybe you don't know, but you are really charging against this decadent medical system. You may fail, most of them will fail. With your intelligence, you may have expected it, but you still stand up and run, like Don Quixote." Grace's voice was low, barely audible to her deskmate.

Yang Rui raised his head. Suddenly, he was a little confused about his thoughts. Perhaps, in his subconscious, there was some element, which was anxious and uneasy.

However, a few seconds later, Yang Rui put down the idea and said, "our goal is to make iron ketones and complete relevant research as fully as possible, that's all."

"I understand, so, am I in?" Grace's face I believe your expression, eyes are staring at Yang Rui.

Yang Rui hesitated for a moment and said, "you can't get any income except your salary."

"I will."

"Well, we should also enter the animal experiment stage. Would you like to do it?"

"Animal experiments? I'm good at that. " Grace noticed Yang Rui's expression, laughed and said, "don't worry, I'm not a hypocritical environmentalist."
