Rebirth of the God-level Xueba

With Professor Man Hai and Professor Feng Junming joining the ion channel laboratory, nearly 2o students, and more instruments and reagents poured in.

High-end mass spectrometers and expensive bioelectronic sensors were placed in the east of the small courtyard, and the foreign engineers who came to install them brought hundreds of pages of instructions, which not only made half of the Biology College I was attracted here, and many professors from the School of Foreign Languages ​​came to do free translations.

Yang Rui sat in the small cafeteria of the ion channel laboratory, eating the roast duck made by Chef Yu Xianyao, but he was a little careless.

Gu Qiang, who accompanied Xiaozao to eat, couldn't help being a little strange. He often saw Yang Rui's mind wandering while reading papers, but when he was eating Chef Yu's craftsmanship, Yang Rui was always engrossed.

Gu Qiang first made himself a duck roll, tasted it, chewed it twice, swallowed it satisfied, and asked even more strangely: "Director Yang, it's delicious, why don't you eat it? "

"I'm eating." Yang Rui slowly spread out a noodle cake, put a few more scallions on it, dipped his chopsticks in the noodle sauce, hooked a little bit, ordered two more slices of duck, and rolled it up. While explaining to Chef Yu: "I watched them make these instruments, and I was so annoyed."

Chef Yu smiled and did not speak. He is a person who often cooks for the boss. If the boss eats well, he will mostly say a few words. I won't be entangled in asking, let alone say something like this.

Gu Qiang didn't understand why, and continued to ask in a daze: "The instruments you bought, the reagents you ordered, the things are delivered, and the inspection is good. Isn't this a happy thing? Why are you bothered?" ?”

Gu Qiang has been in the capital for a while, and his speech has a bit of a Beijing flavor, coupled with his inaccurate Mandarin, obedient people have to think for a while.

Yang Rui seemed to have thought about it for a long time, until he finished eating a duck roll, he wiped his mouth and said, "Why did you not order the equipment until now?"

"Isn't it just now?"

Yang Rui looked at Gu Qiang like a fool, and said, "Scientific instruments are only ordered when they are needed. Do you know how much it will cost?"

Gu Qiang shook his head blankly.

Yang Rui curled his lips, but instead of continuing on this topic, he said instead: "I'm just spending money to buy time, so as not to leak any news."

"Didn't you sign a non-disclosure agreement with them?"

"If the non-disclosure agreement is useful, what will the court do?" Yang Rui said dismissively: "The top laboratories in Europe and the United States, as well as the first-class pharmaceutical companies, which one can't pay such a sum of money."

Gu Qiang sat up straight after hearing this: "Then what should we do?"

After a while, Gu Qiang shook his head again and said, "That's not right."

"kindness?"

"They just sold us the equipment, and they just leaked the secrets, so what secrets can they leak?"

"Many of the instruments and equipment we bought are only needed when the laboratory progresses to a certain extent." Yang Ruilue explained, "The mass spectrometer installed now is not a world-leading project, who would buy it? "

"There are many cutting-edge projects in the world."

"One or two, the other party will definitely not guess it. Together, it is difficult not to expose the experimental project, and even expose the research progress.

I am not surprised. "Yang Rui spread out a noodle cake angrily again, added three slices of duck meat with skin in one go, then put the green onion directly into the noodle sauce, dipped out a lot of sweet noodle sauce, filled it in, and said: "The top scientific research circle It is too small. There are only a few companies or laboratories in the world that can provide high-end instruments and equipment. We bought Shimadzu's instruments today. Within two weeks, scientific research institutions all over Japan have received the news. "

Gu Qiang was a little disbelieving, and said with a smile: "What you said is too vague, Shimadzu is not just supplying our family, but the mass spectrometer we bought, I heard from them earlier, sold six or seven units this year. "

"Then have you ever asked, which laboratories have sold their six or seven advanced mass spectrometers?"

Gu Qiang shook his head.

"There are only a few of the top laboratories in the biology world. If they buy one or two good instruments, no one will think too much about it. But guess what, if a new laboratory suddenly joins, will everyone notice?"

Yang Rui is very aware of the lethality of such news. The credibility of news about equipment purchases is very high. No matter what era it is, fake news is all about cost. No one will spend millions of dollars to buy equipment that they don’t need to release fake news. Not to mention, the installation of these instruments and equipment are all on-site installations by professional companies.

The foreign engineers who come to Peking University’s ion channel laboratory now don’t need to ask any special questions. They can guess part of their project information just by looking at the size of the researchers in the ion channel experiment, the models of other instruments, and the degree of wear and tear.

Gu Qiang was shaken by what Yang Rui said, and said anxiously: "You know this, why don't you think of a way."

"What can I think of?" Yang Rui bit off half of a duck roll and said, "If it is a domestic instrument company, there may be a possibility of concealing information, but you say, with the current appearance of our domestic instruments, Can I buy it for research on g-protein coupled receptors?"

Gu Qiang himself was engaged in practical operations, and he shook his head again and again.

Research on g protein-coupled receptors is already difficult enough, but now in order to complete the first step, that is, to obtain the transmembrane concept of g protein coupled receptors, several experimental groups are busy crazy, and then there are large errors, There is no chance of domestic instruments with unstable quality.

"That's right." Yang Rui didn't need Gu Qiang to answer, he just looked after himself.

I ate the duck rolls, clapped my hands, and said to myself: "In fact, foreign laboratories are also facing the same problem, including American laboratories. It is impossible to conduct secret research now, and basic scientific research is not secret. Research is necessary, so, at this point today, we will fight soldiers against soldiers, swords against swords, and close combat."

Gu Qiang was taken aback when he heard this: "Are we still fighting hand to hand?"

"Where is this?" Yang Rui smiled: "In a few weeks, foreign laboratories will know that we are working on this project, and after confirming the progress of our project, it will be time to really fight the bayonet..."

Yang Rui's smile is completely a smile of joy in bitterness. G protein-coupled receptors naturally have the attribute of scientific research competition, and there is competition in every corner. As for the commanding heights such as the three-dimensional structure, I don’t know how many top laboratories are staring at them. They all came to cut down the king's flag, not to win the championship for a laboratory whose name they had never heard of.

"How is it? Are you ready for a scientific research competition with the top international laboratories?" Yang Rui's voice was drawn out, as if teasing.

Gu Qiang's expression turned serious. He stared at the table, looked again and again, and said, "You finished eating a duck..."

"There is also a duck stand." Yang Rui wiped his hands, raised his head and said, "Let's eat salt and pepper, let's talk when we are full."
