Chapter 1435

"What is not known?" Houston thought all night and lost sleep.

He has almost given up scientific research now, but if he wants to gain a firm foothold in the foundation, what he needs most is the connection with Yang Rui.

Yang Rui is a Chinese. His research, his achievements and his thoughts need to be translated for Europeans. Houston is such a translator, or rather, a running water academic broker.

In biological slang. If Yang Rui is a DNA, Houston is a transcription factor. When Yang Rui's genes need to be expressed, he needs the cooperation of transcription factors.

However, there can be multiple transcription factors, and only Yang Rui is able to transcribe genes in Houston.

Therefore, Yang Rui's projects and ideas are crucial to Houston.

That is to say, biologists at the level of Houston are qualified to transcribe Yang Rui's gene. Otherwise, ordinary people don't even know how to express themselves and how to transcribe them.

It's also because of people in the circle, Houston knows how serious it will be if biologists turn black.

If it's really a big project that can't be explained clearly, it's terrible to think in a bad direction. For example, biological weapons are nothing more than the work of microbiologists and pathologists. Although Yang Rui certainly doesn't like their work, if Yang Rui wants to do it, he will update China's biochemical database every minute.

In contrast, genetic weapons are more worrying.

Since the 1970s, the president of the United States has been unable to leave DNA in public. Used water cups and other things will be collected by the secret service. In the final analysis, it is biologists who are on guard.

If we add a little more primitive defense to China, China, which is mainly Chinese, is really a country suitable for developing genetic weapons.

The number of overseas Chinese is very small, especially compared with China's huge population. Well, if we look for a suitable gene locus, which is a specific variation of Chinese, and other ethnic groups do not have it, and this locus can be used to attack and kill

What kind of physical weapon can match such madness?

Of course, Houston believes that Yang Rui and China will not risk the world's great criticism to do such a thing. However, even if it is a big project of two or three levels, it is also very unstable.

You don't even have to host such a project. As long as you are involved, Yang Rui's reputation in the scientific community will be destroyed.

He may be the target of industry and military industry in the future, but in the academic circle, no biologist is willing to deal with such a guy.

Houston came to the hotel very uneasily, and waited until nearly 10 o'clock in the restaurant, but still didn't see Yang Rui.

Houston became even more uneasy.

"Excuse me, Professor Yang, who lives in the Nobel suite, has he set out? Why didn't you come down for breakfast? " Houston went to the staff and asked.

After Houston showed the badge of Stockholm University, the waiter in charge of the restaurant checked the desk and said, "Professor Yang asked for breakfast to be delivered to the room. So I didn't come down for breakfast. "

Houston was speechless and said, "I'm so drunk."

"Not necessarily drunk." The waiter said.

"Yes? What happened? "

"In my judgment?" The waiter is very serious analysis: "if the guest who lives in the suite with a beautiful female companion, they are usually not willing to come downstairs for breakfast."

Houston was stunned, and had to admit that: "what you said is very reasonable, very logical."

"Thank you. I graduated from philosophy." The waiter nodded, looked at Houston again and said, "Department of philosophy, Stockholm University."

"Well, you like to work with people."

"No, it's just that the philosophy department can't find a job." The waiter said to leave the guests slightly bow, sincere attitude.

……

Houston really didn't want to wait until lunch time to knock on the door.

Recent days are the busiest time for Nobel laureates, especially from afternoon to evening. They have routine activities, and they are afraid that they will not be able to communicate at that time.

It took three or four minutes to knock on the door, which made Houston even more uneasy.

When the door opened, Houston lowered his head and said, "Professor Yang, I have something to ask for you."

"Oh, it's time. Come in." Yang Rui said and opened the door."No..." Houston waved.

"If you don't come in, you can't say anything. Now go down there. It's easy to be surrounded. " Yang Rui has a puzzled look at Houston. Now in the hotel, not only journalists, but also Nobel Prize lovers.

Houston hesitated and asked, "it's not convenient to get in."

"It's OK. We Chinese don't care about this." Yang Rui is only a Swede and doesn't want to go into other people's homes.

Houston's expression was even more strange, and he said, "well, since I'm not particular about... Then I'll come in..."

After entering the door, Houston's head dropped to his chest for fear of seeing inappropriate clothes, inappropriate utensils, inappropriate drugs, or even inappropriate people.

"Mr. Houston, have you eaten yet?" At the dinner table, Jing Yulan raised his glass and invited him.

Houston was stunned for a moment. He was surprised to see Jing Yulan sitting neatly in the dining room, with more than ten plates on the table.

"Are you really eating?"

"Or else?" Jing Yulan is as strange as Yang Rui.

"I mean... No, I mean... Is breakfast good?" Houston just looked around at this time. He really didn't find any strange trace. He was relieved. Then he looked at Yang Rui and thought: in the morning of Nobel suite, is it for breakfast?

"How about some fried eggs? It's not bad. " Yang Rui handed a plate to Houston, like a hospitable Chinese.

Houston thought for a moment and took it, but he didn't move his knife and fork. His Swedish brain thought euphemistically, and then asked, "Professor Yang, can you tell me something about your big project?"

"Big projects? I said it when I was drunk? " Yang Rui was stunned for a moment and laughed: "there is no big project, I'm just drunk."

"Professor Yang... What I'm going to say next may not be popular. If I'm wrong, I hope you can forgive me."

"Oh?" Yang Rui looks at Houston.

Jing Yulan drank the juice from the glass, stood up naturally and said, "I'll change my clothes first."

Yang Rui nodded.

Houston watched Jing Yulan leave and said, "Professor Yang, is there any country or organization that forces you to do something you don't want to do? If so, I can help you. "

Yang Rui stayed for a few seconds and shook his head with a smile: "you think too much."

"Buggers?" Houston told Yang Rui with his mouth.

"No Yang Rui couldn't laugh any more, but spread out his hand and said, "well, I really want to do a project, which I want to do myself. It has nothing to do with any country or organization."

"Can't you explain the project?" Houston asked

"I don't think it's necessary to introduce the project in detail before doing it. There's no such tradition, right

Of course, there is no such tradition. Many scholars are secretive before they do projects.

In fact, if you name some projects, you will know what they do.

For example, as long as the human genome project is put forward, the academic community will not understand it. This kind of project requires a lot of funds and costs, and naturally no one will rush to do it. But if it is on the contrary, I am afraid it will not be a safe thing.

No one wants to share their ideas without value.

Houston is full of wishful thinking, can not help but say: "at least, you are not ready to do weapons."

He didn't use words like biological and chemical weapons to avoid Yang Rui's disgust.

Yang Rui is completely unknown, so he said: "I am a biologist, what weapons do."

"Related to microbes and the like?" Houston blinks.

"Where do you want to go?" Yang Rui was forced to do nothing by Houston. Considering the need for help, he said: "to be honest, I want to do genetics, but it has nothing to do with weapons."

"Well, that's good." Houston was relieved.

"But there may be opposition to my project."

"Why?" Houston raised his heart again.

"Well... Ethical?" What Yang Rui is thinking is "clone".

Cloning is a big project. Dolly is probably the most famous sheep in the world.

The whole project, if not for ethical doubts, may bring a lot of awards.However, Yang Rui, who won the Nobel Prize, now needs more than the prize.

What he needs more is continuous proof of himself.

Prove that you have the ability to use a lot of resources to complete a larger project.

Winning the Nobel Prize is not the end, rather, it should be a starting point.

It can be imagined that when Yang Rui returns to China, he will receive a lot of praise and affirmation, accompanied by a sense of expectation.

He's like a director of a low-cost movie who finally won an Oscar.

At this time, he can naturally get the opportunity to make films with high cost.

The success of high-cost films and how successful they are determine whether Yang Rui will continue to make high-cost films or low-cost films for a long time.

Needless to say, Yang Rui's first project after winning the Nobel Prize will certainly get the full support of various institutions in the country and even in the world. Compared with the human genome project, which can not be completed for many years, Yang Rui needs a project with quick results.

The accumulation of scholars is very difficult. Although Yang Rui has abundant resources, he also started from the parameter determination of ultraviolet spectrophotometer. Coenzyme Q10 and other projects cost him a lot of time. But only by doing these projects can he have the opportunity to do world-class projects.

Sheep cloning is naturally a world-class project. If it can be completed, Yang Rui will be at the top of the academic field and funding.

Compared with the benefits of cloning Dolly, the so-called negative effects are not worth mentioning.

Especially for Yang Rui in China, the negative effects need not be considered.

Only the hypocritical British and Americans will argue about whether the atomic bomb is good or bad.

Chinese people with a long history are more aware of the truth that falling behind means being beaten.

We try our best to explore new science and develop new technology. As for ethical issues, we just leave them to philosophers. Otherwise, will we feed them for nothing and waste the resources of the mortuary?

"Don't worry, all the problems will be solved." Yang Rui patted Houston's hand in a positive tone. Although he was not sure at all.
