For Geng Jian, tens of thousands of dollars was already a lot. In fact, he couldn't even come up with a dollar. Tens of thousands of dollars was an astronomical figure.

Even if he is a Peking University student, Geng Jian has to admit that his fantasy is that one day he will become someone like Yang Rui—someone who will take the initiative to give tens of thousands of yuan in research funding, buy something if he wants to buy something, and give it away if he wants to. , If you want to write a paper, write a paper.

Before today, Geng Jian didn't even include the word "active" in his fantasies. The researchers he had contacted racked their brains and tried their best to win a piece of funding.

In fact, the researchers Geng Jian met could not be called doing their best.

Yang Rui has seen a researcher who really tried his best for funding. Just to get a seal, he ran to three branches from south to north, waiting at the door to get a seal. As for this, he had to stay in the laboratory. How many sleepless nights, how many experimental dogs died of exhaustion, it is even more difficult to say.

In China after the next year, a university professor spends an average of one-third of his time on applying for projects and funding each year. Those who focus on this will consume two-thirds of their time.

Compared with later generations' project application letters, which require dozens of chapters, the current method of allocating projects in one word is simpler than Yang Rui imagined.

Of course, it was easy for him.

After all, on the mailbag in front of each committee member, there is a big "netbsp;" I urgently approved a research grant of 50,000 yuan, and now it is still a little less. I hope to apply for another 10,000 yuan in funding. Let Yang Rui improve his thesis and try to pass the revision. "Professor Cai shook his chair with a smile, and he was in a very good mood.

In any case, Yang Ruike is a student of the Department of Biology, and the work unit "Tang Concentrated Laboratory" he indicated also belongs to the Department of Biology of Peking University. All honors and military medals are indispensable for Yang Rui, the school, and Professor Cai.

All the people here are committee members, no matter which department they are from, they can only look at Professor Cai with envious eyes.

After a while, the familiar professor sighed: "I let you take advantage of it. Yang Rui didn't apply to the Department of Chemistry at the beginning, otherwise h would have been published in a top journal last semester."

"Give us the Department of Physics, four months' list of top journals." Another professor casually said.

The person next to him was not to be outdone: "Give us the Department of Geology, 3 months."

The members of the Department of Mathematics who came to the meeting laughed,

Stretched out a finger, said: "Forgive you two months."

"A table of papers to top journals? How do you train?"

"Blow it, and you don't need to prove it." The mathematics professor laughed, which attracted more laughter.

Professor Cai coughed and said, "Don't just brag, let's talk about business. I want ten thousand dollars. If there is no objection, I will accept it."

"There are too many, it's impossible." The Department of Chemistry and the Department of Biology have more in common, and there is more time to compete for funding.

Professor Cai pointed at the middle with a smile, and said, "ce11, a table of ce11 is ten thousand, is that too much? I don't think ten thousand is too many."

"Thousands are not many, but you have already finished this project. How can you spend 10,000 for a small change? I think 60,000 is enough." The Department of Physics is also a large department that uses funds, and it cares more about the school's funds than its own. Still tight.

Professor Cai gulped down two sips of tea and said, "I'll give you 60,000, and you can change it for me."

"I really changed it, will you give me a name?" The professor of the physics department was not to be outdone.

"Ask Tang Zhong and Yang Rui about this, I'm not the author." Professor Cai laughed twice, looked at the principal in charge, and said: "Now we need a total of 10,000 yuan, and Tang Zhong's laboratory is empty. Our biology department You can pay another 50,000, and the remaining 550,000, I hope the school can make up for it, and we guarantee that the minor changes will be passed.”

"Guaranteed to pass the minor reform?" the principal asked for confirmation.

The representatives of the Department of Mathematics said first: "Do you dare to guarantee this kind of thing? The minor reform is relatively simple, but it is guaranteed to pass? How do you guarantee it? Can you be undercover in the journal?"

"At least I can be sure that having 10,000 yuan in funding is definitely more guaranteed than 50,000 yuan in research funding. Besides, Yang Rui's research has always been provided by Hong Kong Huarui Company and Richard's laboratory. The school did not provide a penny of research funds, but now it provides 550,000 yuan, and you can get back a paper on cells, which is not a disadvantage." Professor Cai does not practice swearing, but what he said is more persuasive than swearing more force.

The principal nodded slightly.

"You're not really thinking about it, are you?" The professor of the physics department moved his chair and said forward, "We are applying for several projects, but they are all stuck due to funding issues."

"Who are we? Can the project you applied for be published in "Cell", "Nature", or "Science"?" Professor Cai kept using big moves to mock. The school’s project funds are usually used by scholars who cannot apply for national funds or provincial and ministerial funds. Although it does not mean that research that cannot apply for national or provincial funds is not good, but in terms of proportion, It is naturally more difficult for such research to be published in top journals.

In fact, as far as the current domestic situation is concerned, not to mention the top foreign journals, there is almost a 100% chance of being listed in the middle-level journals, and it is safe to obtain the national fund. Yang Rui is an exception. He is still a student, his seniority is too young, he has no accumulation, and he has risen too fast, so he did not apply for the national fund. What Professor Cai is doing now is actually to compensate Yang Rui.

He himself is a member of the Faculty. Speaking of which, he is even rarer than the academicians of later generations. Just look at Yang Rui's papers, and then look at the comments given by the reviewers, and he can almost release the required funds. As far as the current situation is concerned , Let alone 10,000, 60,000 may not be needed.

However, there are too many uses for research funds, or in other words, during the research process, money is used too much, and with the current domestic mechanism, a scholar can only get a lot of funds when he has achieved results, that is, Yang Rui current situation.

According to Professor Cai's thinking, if he doesn't help Yang Rui get funding now, it will be difficult for him to get funding for his next project. The representatives who compete for funding will still repeat today's rhetoric. But Yang Rui's competitiveness will be even weaker.

Because no one can guarantee that their next paper will be published in "Cell", and Yang Rui is almost sure at present.

This makes it seem wiser to invest in Yang Rui now.

At the beginning of the project, he did not vote for Yang Rui (, but because of the relationship with Vice President Pang, he funded Yang Rui’s competitor, Richard, which made Professor Cai feel a little guilty, and helped Yang Rui get 10,000 yuan, which is not a big deal compensation.

This money may not be enough to buy equipment in US dollars, but it is more than enough to maintain the laboratory, conduct some experiments, and even raise a few experimental dogs.

In the Department of Biology of Peking University, a laboratory that can receive 10,000 yuan a year is at least at the level of an independent laboratory.

Although Professor Cai could not give Yang Rui the name, as far as the research itself is concerned, funding is still king.

The reason for Professor Cai's preparation really moved the principal.

After thinking about it for about a minute, the principal pushed forward with his palm, motioning others to stop discussing, and then said: "The school's funds are really tight, not only Peking University, but also Tsinghua University and the National People's Congress. But, I think, The same choice is the same at Tsinghua University. Whether it is 550,000, 10,000, or 10,000, it is still necessary to guarantee a CE11 paper."

The representative professor of the Department of Physics was quite frustrated, but he could only express his understanding. In fact, the principal also made it very clear.

Those who apply for funding from the Department of Physics are postgraduates, doctoral students, and junior lecturers who have difficulty applying for funding outside the school. In short, they are senior experimental dogs and head dogs. Skills and knowledge, school funds at this time are equal to angel investment.

In contrast, Yang Rui is actually younger, and it is more difficult to apply for funds outside the school. He only gets money from the school when the project is almost completed. If the school does not give it, it is unreasonable.

As for how many times the salary of 10,000, none of the people present cared about it.

This is "ceLL", priceless!
