Chapter 31：

Xu Mingsheng's mobility is very strong. Within two days, Li Zheng received his call.

"Li Zheng, things are done. Come and go through the procedures. Those old friends of mine really want to see you, sit down with you on the day of the procedures?" Xu Mingsheng smiled heartily on the phone.

Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. After the naming of Xiangjiang University, his laboratory plan was half successful. In the past two days, he went to many places, but he never found a satisfactory place to build his own laboratory.

The laboratory Li Zheng wants is more than two houses. In his last life, he returned to China from the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, and his working environment has changed drastically.

Compared to Cold Spring Harbor, domestic working conditions can even be described as "hard".

In 1990, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) officially launched the Human Genome Project. The Human Genome Project, the Manhattan Atomic Bomb Project, and the Apollo Project are collectively referred to as the three major scientific projects. Known as the "Moon Landing Program" for life sciences, it is ironic that China, which accounts for one-fifth of the global population, was excluded from this program.

The news spread back to China, and the whole country was in an uproar, and the entire Chinese biological circle was silent. At that time, Mr. Liu Jiasheng, who was known as the first person in biology in the country, walked into Ouchi with a cane and had a cordial conversation with the old chief all day and night. After that, the national finance finally opened a mouth for biological scientific research, and the Chinese biological community rushed to catch up, and finally gained a place in the world biological circle at the end of the 20th century.

In September 1999, Hua Guo formally joined the "Moon Landing Program" known as life science.

Only the accelerated development of the domestic biology community and the foreign biology community are still different. What Li Zheng felt most was the infrastructure. The domestic first-class laboratory equipment and resources are not bad, but in terms of working environment, it is very different from abroad.

The Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory is located in Long Island, USA, surrounded by mountains and rivers. The entire research center is designed like a villa area with complete staff leisure facilities. Once the famous American TV anchor "Julia Ohart" once said, "This place actually belongs to your group of fools who only love each other in the laboratory. It is a waste! If it were me, I Every day will be like a vacation.” This fully demonstrates the good environment of top foreign laboratories.

With limited funds, Li Zheng dare not expect his laboratory to be like Cold Spring Harbor, but it must not be the low-rise houses in mainland China. When a university walks in, where is the shortest and most broken, the door Maybe there is a sign of XX laboratory.

Therefore, the laboratory must be large. Even if there is no money to build it now, fill it in a little bit. One day, Li Zheng laboratory will have a place among the top international biopharmaceutical laboratories!

Li Zheng walked into the school gate of Xiangjiang University with relevant materials to find land to build a house. It is much better to have a snake out of a horse than he smashed like a headless fly.

Melodious music wafts in every corner of the campus. Young men and women come out of the teaching building talking and laughing. The whole campus is full of youthful taste. Li Zheng walked down the path of Xiangjiang University with some nostalgia, and he suddenly looked forward to the upcoming college life.

"School brother? Which college are you from?" A girl was pushed and shoved by her companion and came to Li Zheng.

Li Zheng was at a loss for a moment, and then smiled politely, "I am not a student of Xiangjiang University yet."

The girl was taken aback when she heard this. The companion behind her chuckled.

"I'm still a high school student, I said it was so tender, he looks about the same age as my fifth brother."

Li Zheng...

Forcefully resisting the helplessness in his heart, Li Zheng asked the girls for the address of the school office. Ten minutes later, he successfully stood on the 11th floor of the administrative building of Xiangjiang University.

As soon as he got out of the elevator, Li Zheng showed a strange expression on his face. Obviously, the corridor was still very quiet just now. The moment he stepped in, it seemed as if the original still movie had pressed the play button, and it suddenly became noisy.

"Little Hu, have you printed the documents I asked you to print?"

"Oh, there is no hot water in my thermos!"

"Little Hu, is it raining outside today?"

One by one old professors in their 50s and 60s came to the corridor in front of the elevator at the same time as if they had made an appointment. When they saw each other, the atmosphere froze for a moment.

"Haha, Lao Liu, are you out too?"

"I'll get hot water."

"Oh, let me print the file."

At the same time, the two looked at another old professor who appeared a little pale on the sideburns from the office, "Principal, are you?"

Su Changzhi stagnated, "Can I come out to see the weather!"

Professor Liu and Professor Gao looked at each other, yes, of course, you can’t see the weather outside in your office on the 13th floor. Look at the 11th floor, nothing wrong!

Xiao Hu, that is, Hu Zhiyuan is obviously still in some condition, he stood in his office after sitting for a long time. Professor Gao just asked him to print the document? And... the weather.

"Principal, the weather is good today, it won't rain!" Hu Zhiyuan glanced out the window and hurriedly replied.

There was an awkward silence in the hallway.

At this moment, Xu Mingsheng walked out of an office with a smile.

"If you want to see it, just look at it openly. You are not afraid to lose face in front of the juniors!" Xu Mingsheng's words are full of teasing.

He looked at Hu Yuanzhi, who was still blank, and coughed: "Little Hu, it's okay, you go back first."

Hu Yuanzhi returned to the office with an erratic expression.

The corridor was quiet again, Xu Mingsheng walked to Li Zheng, "Go to the conference room and sit down, I will show you to recognize people!" He said, he glanced at the three Su Changzhi who pretended to see the scenery, and then said: "So that some people can't stand curiosity and run out by themselves."

"Cough cough" Su Changzhi coughed awkwardly, "Ming Sheng, this is the youngest billionaire in Xiangjiang you said, indeed young, indeed young! Hahaha."

Su Changzhi is another acquaintance. When Li Zheng visited Xiangjiang University in his last life, this respected old man was already 85 years old. The old man had stomach cancer when he was 70 years old, and he has been fighting cancer for more than ten years.

At that time, Li Zheng’s anti-cancer drug had just been successfully tested on mice. After hearing this, the old man came to the hotel where Li Zheng was staying to meet him, and took his hand and told him that he had been with cancer for so many years. He is tired, and hopes to fight vigorously with the disease. He volunteered to become a volunteer of Li Zheng's anti-cancer drug clinical phase 4, which shocked Li Zheng!

"Principal Su." Li Zheng bent slightly and bowed to the old man.

Su Changzhi was startled, "Do you know me?"

"President Su is highly respected. Although I have not been in Xiangjiang for long, I have heard of your name." Li Zheng said sincerely.

Su Changzhi laughed, not embarrassed this time. Although he has heard a lot of such remarks based on his reputation, it sounds uncomfortable to say it from the youngest billionaire in Xiangjiang.

The four people walked into the meeting room, and Su Changzhi found that just after leaving for a while, there were a lot of people in the meeting room, and the big meeting table couldn't sit down. Needless to say, these people must have heard the wind to see the youngest billionaire in Hong Kong.

At a meeting in January yesterday, Xu Mingsheng changed his former silence and talked about the importance of biopharmaceuticals to all mankind at the beginning of the meeting, emphasizing that biology is the science that promotes the evolution of mankind itself! At the same time, he criticized the narrow structure of the humanities system, only knowing that it is intriguing and fighting, and paying too much attention to personal gains and losses. The final conclusion is that the money has to be spent on the blade and invested in life science research!

The Department of Humanities was furious, and Professor Guo of the Department of Social Sciences almost smashed the stinky shoes on Xu Mingsheng's face. After Xu Mingsheng said this, if the school finance allocates money to the Department of Humanities, it will almost become anti-human! Therefore, several highly respected professors of the Department of Humanities did not hesitate to poke the painful feet of the Department of Science and Engineering.

Oh, you are contributing to the progress of mankind. You have a big structure, but you have come up with results! Last time, the biological laboratory of XX did not take millions of Xiangjiang coins, so it worked out the guessed shape of the RESE virus! And so-and-so Physics Laboratory, it is very diligent to apply for scientific research funds, what about the results? Maybe when we were half buried in the loess, nothing came out!

The humanities department is very good at talking, especially the dean of the law school, with his skills in the court, he cursed a group of big men in the science and engineering department.

That group of old professors in the Department of Science and Engineering was called a bewildered man. I don't know how many times I have scolded Xu Mingsheng, who is a strong man. At this time, Xu Mingsheng threw a blockbuster bomb.

A student of the medical school published an SCI paper on the Dannotin catalyst, and successfully extracted the catalyst in the Pharmaceutical Laboratory of Xiangjiang University. Not only that, Roche and Pfizer also bought five-year patent rights from them at high prices. Xu Mingsheng did not say the specific price, but he said something like this, "I am proud that our college can train...the emergence of such talents. The youngest billionaire in Hong Kong, the huge wealth he has exchanged for knowledge is very Enlightenment!"

The pair was so proud that he even pretended to look like a wind and a light cloud. In the eyes of other people, Minghuanghuang is just the four words "the villain has the will"!

Not mentioning the fact that Xu Mingsheng said that Li Zheng has not yet enrolled in school, which caused everyone to ridicule him. It is precisely because Xu Mingsheng said that Li Zheng was too good, which aroused the curiosity of all the professors at the meeting. That's why we have today's scene.

Originally, a simple procedure would not require so many people. At least those old professors who don’t have administrative positions don’t have to go there at all. But they are here. Not only that, but also some well-informed middle-aged professors. Ran over.

Su Changzhi sneered in his heart, and asked you to come to a meeting to participate in an activity on weekdays. Everyone is either busy with scientific research or uncomfortable, but now all of them are full of energy.

"Student Li, find a place to sit." Su Changzhi said so, looking around, and found embarrassingly that because there were a lot of people suddenly there was no room at the conference table! !

All the respected old professors in the court could not help showing embarrassment on their faces. Professor Chen from the Department of Law laughed and stood up. Professor Chen seemed to be in his early forties. Among the professors here, he was a junior. "Come on, classmate Li, sit with me. Anyway, I just came to see the youngest in Xiangjiang. It’s okay for the billionaire," Professor Chen said very honestly, which caused a burst of laughter in the court.

Li Zheng hesitated for a moment, and after thanking Professor Chen, sat down. He could see that if he didn't sit down, the awkward atmosphere would probably continue to spread.

As soon as Li Zheng sat down, almost everyone's eyes were on him. Li Zheng couldn't help stiffening. He had seen big scenes in his previous life, but so many old people looked at him like monkeys in the zoo, and he was still a little uncomfortable.

Su Changzhi was the first to break the deadlock. "They are all by themselves. I will introduce them first. From left to right are Professor Guo from the School of Social Sciences, Professor Zhong from the Law Department, Professor He from the Department of Literature, Professor Liu from the Department of Physics, and from the Department of Chemistry. You are familiar with Professor Zhou and Professor Xu. They are also from the medical school next to him, Professor Zhao, Professor Qian, Professor Sun, Professor Li..."

Almost all the leaders of the various colleges in Xiangjiang University have arrived, especially in the medical school, where all the full professors are all present, even more than the meeting of the college. No wonder Su Changzhi was upset.

Li Zheng stood up and said hello one by one, which caused the old professors to nod their heads, and even those old professors in the humanities department couldn't help but soften their eyes.

These old professors of the Department of Humanities have a complicated perception of Li Zheng, because the birth of Li Zheng made the Department of Liberal Arts greatly frustrated at the meeting. But how can a teacher dislike good students? Blame it, how can such a well-behaved child go to student medicine...

The old professors of the Department of Humanities glanced at Xu Mingsheng who was contented, and felt even more uncomfortable.

"Ahem, this meeting today will focus on two topics. One is the enrollment issue of Li Zheng. Two is the naming issue of Li Zheng's laboratory. Both of these issues are related to our newly released Xiangjiang youngest billionaire. It's related," Su Changzhi said with a smile.

The old professors let out a good laugh.

Li Zheng glanced at Xu Mingsheng, enrolled? Didn’t you say that you are enrolled in spring?

Xu Mingsheng watched his nose and mouth without saying a word. Yesterday he mentioned to Su Changzhi that after Li Zheng enrolled in the spring, he was scolded by Su Changzhi pointing his nose. If Su Changzhi was not both the principal and his mentor, Xu Mingsheng really wanted to take the table and leave. Since he became the dean of the academy, no one has spoken to him like this.

But Su Changzhi also makes sense. Although their university is the highest school in Hong Kong, what if Luoche or Pfizer propose to send Li Zheng to study abroad! With the urine of those pharmaceutical companies, I wish the calves would grow on their land.

So sooner rather than later! Set it down as soon as possible.

"At the end of the year, there was an Asian Biopharmaceutical Conference in Tokyo. The quota for Hong Kong University was three professors and three students. Three professors have already been set. Three students have selected two graduate students, and one has not It is decided, after all, this is an international conference, to show the best appearance of our biological team at Xiangjiang University, so your arrival, Li Zheng, relieved us of our urgent need."

"Li Zhengna, you should enroll early, so that we can report your name to the organizing committee. As for the credits for the first year..." Su Changzhi thought for two minutes and said: "Our credits for one year It’s 30 points, and your paper counts as 15 points, okay?"

President Su, you have said so, can he say no?

Li Zheng smiled bitterly, "President, I wonder if Professor Xu has mentioned to you that I am planning to set up a laboratory recently, so I may be busy in the near future and I can't take care of the school."

Su Changzhi immediately said: "You don't have to worry about it, just be flexible."

Seeing Li Zheng's agreement, Su Changzhi was obviously happy on his face, "Then let's talk about the naming of the laboratory, which we have discussed at the meeting. At that time, it was approved by a vote. Now we talk about rights. And obligations, we can’t take two million for nothing. Li Zheng, I heard that you are looking for a place to build a laboratory. Our old library is on the westernmost side of the campus. It's big and big, except for the ones that keep the sundries. , The rest can be assigned to you as a laboratory."

Li Zheng didn't expect that these two million would have this effect. To be honest, he was really excited. Xiangjiang University has a superior geographical location and complete supporting facilities. For a researcher, he has his own experiment in the university. The room is of special significance.

Li Zheng took a deep breath and tried hard to resist this huge temptation.

"Thank you very much for your generosity, the principal, but the design drawings for the laboratory are already out, and I like them very much. If you are in the library, I am afraid this design drawing will have to be reworked.

The professors present were a little surprised. Li Zheng didn't find the excuse to be clever, and there was no way to make a design drawing without even confirming the ground, but everyone could hear that Li Zheng refused.

He actually refused? !

Many professors, especially those of science and engineering who have their own laboratories, felt a little uncomfortable when they heard Su Changzhi said that he would allocate the old library building to Li Zheng.

The laboratory conditions at Xiangjiang University are much better than those in mainland China, but they are definitely not as luxurious as a building. If Li Zheng agrees, then his laboratory will be higher than the professors in terms of floor space.

A young offspring actually pressed himself on his head, and these old seniors would feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts. I didn't raise any objections. One was because I was getting older and couldn't hold back this old face, and second, who told you that you didn't give two million to the school.

But when Li Zheng refused, they were embarrassed again.

"Don't have a psychological burden, since the principal has spoken, you will continue." It was Professor Zhao from the medical school who spoke.

Li Zheng smiled and shook his head, "If the professors really want to help me, please help me find out where there are about 20 acres of land for sale. The environment is better and the transportation is not too inconvenient. It is best to be closer to the school. ."

A group of professors looked at each other, 20 acres. In the end, people looked down on a small building like a library.

Alas, they can't accept the old.

Professor Zhong of the Law School frowned and said, "I know that there is a place that meets your requirements except for a little bigger. About ten kilometers away from our school, three or four villas have been built, and manual labor has been dug. Lake, later the developer ran out of money, and it was rotten there. I did the bankruptcy liquidation."

Li Zheng's eyes lit up, when Zhong Jingming reminded him, he remembered.

In 1982, one of the bleakest periods in the history of the Hong Kong real estate industry, the land prices, property prices, and rents in Hong Kong all dropped significantly. According to statistics, the decline in land prices at that time reached 40%-60%, which is not surprising.

Compared with the future generations of the Xiangjiang property market, which is often more than two hundred and twenty thousand square meters, the current price of Xiangjiang is simply the price of cabbage.

"Professor Zhong, can you take me to see if you have time?" Li Zheng, an experimenter, would not deliberately hoard the house, but he would not be stupid enough to refuse when he hit his own hand.

Zhong Jingming was stunned, he really wanted it.

"If the artificial lake is added, the whole estate will be close to 25 mu. Because of the falling land price and bankruptcy liquidation, it will be a little lower than the market price, but even so, at least 80 million Hong Kong dollars."
