The bus that picked up the children arrived at the entrance of the second small school, and the parents who were squatting nearby claimed their children.

"Mom and Dad, I scored 100 points in the exam!" Shen Nuofei conveyed the good news to his parents as soon as possible.

"Oh, Nofi is amazing!" Shen Qihu touched his daughter's head to show affirmation and encouragement.

"Wow, Nofi is amazing!" Ou Ye copied and pasted Shen Qi's original words, and the woman who studied mathematics had a slightly poor vocabulary.

"Nofi is a good seedling. Teacher Liu commented objectively.

"Director Liu, our family Nophi has laid a foundation in elementary mathematics, so please leave it to your old man. "Shen Qi and Teacher Liu are old acquaintances, and he still maintains his previous title, calling Lao Liu Director Liu.

"Shen Qi, what are your and Ou Ye's expectations for Nofi?" asked Lao Liu.

Shen Qi said: "It's good if she's happy." ”

Lao Liu: "I don't believe what other parents say. But you say so, I believe it. Then Shen Qi, what do you expect from yourself?"

Other people wouldn't ask Shen Qi that, Lao Liu is different, he was Shen Qi's Olympiad national team instructor.

Shen Qi did not forget his teacher's kindness, he said: "I hope to retire before the age of 40." ”

Lao Liu shook his head: "The country and the people will not allow you to retire before the age of 40." ”

Shen Qi smiled: "Yes." ”

Shen Qi and Lao Liu talked, laughed, and talked intimately, and other teachers, parents, and children saw it.

In the dark, the head of the family asked the child: "The daughter of the Shen Qi family participated in the preliminary round of your fifth grade group, and she got a full score?"

The child is Ye Wushuang, he nodded and said, "I have been in contact with Shen Nuofei for a while, she is indeed smart. ”

Father Ye said: "She is not smart or not, but she has good genes." Wushuang, as a senior, you should care more about Shen Nuofei's senior sister. ”

Ye Wushuang: "If she can skip a grade to the fifth grade, then I will have more opportunities to care about her." ”

......

Shen Qi hopes that his daughter will be happy in her teenage years, and his own plan is to retire before the age of 40.

To achieve his plan to retire at the age of 40, Shen Qi believes that he still needs to work hard, one is to touch that mysterious field in academic majors, and the other is to achieve financial freedom.

"Chemistry and Biology are 4 of 4+X, and a rise to level 15 in these two subjects is a sufficient and necessary condition to unlock level 16. ”

Shen Qi thought about it, the points of the top student were enough, and the task of upgrading from level 14 to level 15 in chemistry was to explain a mysterious existence with chemical methods as the main means.

Shen Qi couldn't help but think of the other two Nollified winners this year, Wayne Tabrin and Sarah Norman.

Wayne Tabrin and Sarah Norman were awarded for important research progress in Make Life.

In Shen Qi's view, making life is to make living molecules, so as to realize the leap from biomolecules to molecular life, and its ultimate goal is to cross the gap between chemical evolution and biological evolution.

Make life is a research project that belongs to the "mysterious existence" defined by the system.

Shen Qi doesn't necessarily have to surpass Wayne Tablin and Sarah Norman to achieve the ultimate research results in making life. There are many other mysterious beings that can be studied.

He believes that when the discipline of chemistry touches the critical line of mysterious existence, it is difficult to cross the critical line by simple chemical methods.

It is necessary to find at least one helper for chemistry.

This helper can be biology, as well as mathematics and physics.

It can also be a math and physics student who can go into battle together to help chemistry.

People often talk about biohazard, bioweapons.

Biology and chemistry are the most closely related disciplines.

If chemistry is Sherlock Holmes, biology is Watson.

"The creature is only level 12, so you need to level up as soon as possible. ”

The task of upgrading from biology level 12 to 13 requires Shen Qi to train at least five outstanding doctoral graduates majoring in biology.

Shen Qi, a Fields Medalist, two-time no-taker, and one-time no-to-man winner, recruited Ph.D. students in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and a large number of the best students came to him with just a finger.

In terms of biology, although Shen Qi has reached the level of 12 masters, he has not achieved any outstanding scientific research results in the field of biology.

However, it is not a big problem, and all that is needed to transition from mathematics, physics and chemistry to biology is a valuable and interesting project.

Shen Qi personally wrote the project application report.

The title of the project report is more ambitious--- "Genetic Engineering Research Project".

Shen Qi broke down the project into three steps.

The first step is basic research. (The leader of the research team needs to be at Biology level 12)

The second step is advanced research. (The leader of the research team needs to be at the level of 13~14 in biology)

The third step is more advanced research. (The leader of the research team needs to be at the level of 15 in biology)

There are countless biological dogs studying genetic engineering.

In the first step of the research stage, Shen Qi only needed five.

According to Shen Qi's calculations, the first step of the "Genetic Engineering Research Project" requires 11 million yuan in scientific research funds.

The overall budget of Yanda this year is as high as 57.2 billion yuan, of which the scientific research budget accounts for 18%, which is 10.2 billion yuan.

The overall budget of Yan University is only 1.8 billion yuan ahead of the second place Mizuki University, but the research budget of Yan University is a full 7 billion yuan more than that of Mizuki.

18% of the research budget is an extremely staggering figure.

Globally, there are only two universities that surpass Yan University in terms of the proportion and volume of research budget, Johns Hopkins University and UCLA.

The scientific research budget of 18% and 10.2 billion yuan is not the bulk of Yanda's money, and Yanda's most money is spent on faculty and students.

Among them, this year's budget for international students is 88 million yuan, and as of December, all the 88 million yuan of international student funds of Yan University have been spent, and the amount recovered is 110 million yuan.

In other words, Yan University recruits international students to make money. The difference of 22 million yuan is evenly distributed to 3,000 international students, and each international student needs to pay more than 7,000 yuan out of pocket every year.

The more the university subsidizes the money and gives some unbelievable super-national treatment, the lower the quality of the international students recruited.

To put it mildly, if you come to China to study as an international student, you can't even speak or understand Chinese, so why don't you read an egg?

Yan University has truly achieved internationalization, and they give international students a higher quality education, and they will never discount the cost, and the quality of the international students recruited is generally high. High-quality international students in China are welcomed by Chinese universities and Chinese.

Yan University's annual research budget of 10.2 billion yuan is allocated to various colleges and departments, and the Shen Qi Research Center accounts for the highest proportion of 8%, 816 million yuan.

At the end of the year, all colleges and departments are doing one thing, and the unused budget is used up quickly.

Take Shen Qi Scientific Research Center as an example, if you apply for a scientific research budget of 816 million yuan this year, but only use 200 million.

So Director Shen Qi has to explain clearly to the school and the country, why is there such a big difference?

Even if Director Shen Qi explains clearly, the scientific research budget of their center next year will never exceed 816 million yuan, and generally speaking, it will only decrease and not increase.

The accuracy of budget request and use is an important KPI, and plus or minus 5% is usually reasonable.

Schools and the state certainly discourage budget overspending by 5 per cent.

If we can do all the work this year through technical means, do it beautifully, do it impeccably, and save 5% of the annual budget, it is commendable, and it will not affect the amount of next year's budget.

Of the 816 million scientific research budget of the Shen Qi Scientific Research Center this year, 764.2 million has been used.

Coupled with the 11 million yuan that needs to be applied for in the first research stage of the "Genetic Engineering Research Project", the actual amount of scientific research budget of Shenqi Scientific Research Center this year is 775.2 million, accounting for 95% of the total annual scientific research budget of the center.

"Our center budget is very precise. After all, Shen Qi is an expert in mathematics, and he calculated and calculated the most reasonable value of 95%.

A single scientific research fund of 11 million yuan is a drizzle for biological projects, and it is extremely expensive to do scientific research in biology.

But in terms of the specific amount, 11 million yuan is 8 figures after all, and Shen Qi needs to explain the project to the Academic Committee of Yan University.
