Chapter 1334: All Professors
Dean Liu opened his mouth and stammered, looked at Yang Rui incomprehensibly, and said in his heart: Are you really a professor able to wholesale or something. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Director Zhu couldn't help but remind: "Director Yang, Professor Yang, I didn't apply for professors like this, how many places we have every year, they are all allocated from above." Retire one to one, except for the one who wears a hat down, there is no more. ”
"Not a single one?" Yang Rui asked.
"Not a single one. Director Zhu affirmed.
Yang Rui laughed twice and said: "Our ion channel laboratory has made a clear conformation of G protein-coupled receptors, and also made the crystal structure of G protein-coupled receptors, and also made the three-dimensional structure of G protein-coupled receptors.
"That's not what I meant......" Director Zhu saw that Yang Rui was unhappy, his voice suddenly became weak, and he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Professor Yang, I didn't say that you shouldn't be professors, if I have the right to decide, I'm willing to give first-class professors, don't we have this quota?"
In schools, administrative officials actually have more power than academically focused teachers. However, this power structure must be similar horizontally. Yang Rui has now climbed to the academic highs, not only in the Chinese biological community is the top, but also in the world biological community, not to mention what background and great achievements he has, this alone, Director Zhu has to be careful to serve.
Yang Rui didn't feel happy because of his good attitude, and raised a finger and said: "Gu Qiang has independently published three top papers, and in the G protein-coupled receptor project, he is my pioneer general, and he has made miraculous achievements, and he is worthy of the title of a professor." ”
He raised a second finger and said, "Xu Zhengping has been an associate professor for many years, and he has worked diligently in the ion channel laboratory for three years, and has completed the tasks I arranged with quality and quantity. ”
The third finger was raised: "Su Xiankai led the G protein research group alone, forged ahead, and was the first researcher in the ion channel laboratory to contact the G protein-coupled receptor project, which made great contributions to the ion channel laboratory to reach the world's leading level in this field, and he also has top papers in his body, worthy of the title of a professor." ”
Yang Rui counted the names like heads, and pointed out Fan Zhenlong, Tian Bing, Jiao Yangping, Wang Sisheng and Su Fan, and finally put out an eight, saying: "My people have made world-class achievements, and they must have world-class treatment." Dean Liu, tell me, am I asking too much?"
Counting Man Hai, Feng Junming and Tao Xuelin, who are already professors, the ion channel laboratory is actually a rhythm that all the staff should teach.
Judging from the thinking of administrative officials, Yang Rui's request was certainly excessive.
There is no laboratory that is qualified to teach all of them, and such a combination is not healthy.
Spindle-shaped structures have always been known to be stable, and the laboratory is no different.
Too many big guys with ideas are not a good thing, and too many incompetent little brothers who run errands are useless.
The backbone middle layer is the most important, such as Gu Qiang, Fan Zhenlong and others, who were all backbone members of the ion channel laboratory before, and they implemented Yang Rui's idea one by one.
Otherwise, with Yang Rui alone, such a big project as G protein-coupled receptors can be played for a few years.
However, Dean Liu has an IQ, and if you also compare the level of the projects completed by the ion channel laboratory, not to mention all the professors, all the academicians are qualified.
Yang Rui also judged - academicians of third world countries, how many can participate in the whole Nobel Prize-level projects, and how many can participate in the whole process of three Nobel Prize-level projects?
If Yang Rui pulls out the ion channel laboratory now and all the staff go abroad, it is estimated that any university in any country in the world will be willing to give up the title of 10 professors. Even universities like Harvard and Yale can give similar conditions.
Compared with the G protein-coupled receptor project, which costs tens of millions of dollars at every turn, the title of 10 professors is nothing. Since the beginning of this year, the world's laboratories have spent tens of millions of dollars on G protein-coupled receptor projects, at least in the double digits.
Those who have obtained results can be counted on one hand, and none of them have obtained world-class results!
Yang Rui didn't think of this before, but now that he thinks about it, he must fight for this benefit for his subordinates.
Otherwise, don't look at the ion channel laboratory is now full of flowers and boiling oil, and the researchers under his hand will run away.
If any of the world's top universities can use the title of professor and the normal salary level to poach a researcher who has participated in the G protein-coupled receptor project in the whole process, few universities and research institutes must be able to withstand it.
The stakes are too great.
Regardless of academic goals, just the funds saved must be calculated in tens of millions of dollars.
The valuable experience they can bring is what other labs have to pile up with a lot of money. Why can Qian Xuesen be called a man worth 5 divisions, because he has burned an excess of funds in von Kármen's jet propulsion laboratory, and why von Kármán dares to use massive resources to burn long-range rockets and air exploration in the jet propulsion laboratory, because he has already burned the wind tunnel in the Guggenheim pneumatic laboratory, and before burning the precious wind turbine, von Kármán burned more than 14 years of funds at the Pneumatic Research Institute of RWTH Aachen University, and only then did he accumulate a lot of experience.
Qian Xuesen skipped all the previous steps, although he still needs to buy the corresponding instruments and equipment, and do many repeated experiments, but the number and cost have been greatly reduced.
This work, for another non-von Kármán scholar, would not have been possible.
No matter how rigorous the experimental records are, they can't record every thought in the minds of scholars.
A successful scientific research team is like a team that has won the championship.
Success, like winning the championship, has attribute bonuses, the touch of being on the verge of success, the trembling in the face of success, and the suppression of oneself at the most depressing moment, which cannot be measured by data.
The weak winning team will become the vegetable market of the giants after success.
The weak scientific research team is also facing the dismemberment after success.
The closed nature of China in the 80s gave Yang Rui a lot of room to maneuver, but that doesn't mean he can ignore the demands of all researchers.
The title of professor of the world's top universities, the salary of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, and the world's best research and living environment......
The only thing Yang Rui can use for competition is honor, future, homeland and patriotism.
It is impossible for him to pay tens of thousands of dollars in the ion channel laboratory, tens of thousands of yuan, and the allure of Beijing in the 80s is far from being comparable to that of New York and Tokyo......
Even if the researchers in the laboratory don't care about the so-called honor, the so-called title, or the so-called money, Yang Rui still wants to give them to them.
He is a researcher, not a businessman.
Standing at the peak of China's scientific research world, Yang Rui is still a scholar, a researcher, and a scientific research manager, rather than a management researcher.
However, China is not a university after all, and academic and economic issues are inevitably linked to political issues.
Dean Liu didn't refute Yang Rui's face, but his face was wrinkled, and he said for a long time: "No matter if your request is too much, I can't do it." ”
Yang Rui shook his head: "There is nothing in the world that cannot be done, it just depends on how difficult it is." ”
"It's hard to do, it's almost impossible. Dean Liu sighed.
Yang Rui said "En" and said: "Listening to what you said, it reminds me that when I first decided to start the G protein-coupled receptor project, what other people said, they all said that the G protein-coupled receptor project is a project that is difficult to do and almost impossible to do. ”
Yang Rui looked up at Dean Liu and said, "Our ion channel laboratory has now completed a world-class difficult project, Dean Liu, the administrative official of our hospital, can you also publicize a world-class difficult project." ”
"What?"
"What makes a university great is not just its academic greatness, but that it has a great mechanism. Yang Rui's voice was full of temptation, and he said: "The Peking University of my dreams, the university I aspire to join, should not only be academic greatness, but overall greatness." We can accomplish not only difficult research, but also difficult political goals......"
Director Zhu and Director Tong raised their heads suddenly, only to feel that their blood was boiling.
Behind the two of them, there was the sound of heavy breathing, but at some point, a staff member quietly came to the office and whispered.
They were also irritated by Yang Rui.
"Yang Rui, actually...... Why are you in a hurry?" Dean Liu was older after all, he had long passed the age of pulling banners with enthusiasm, and he still persuaded: "If you slow down the time a little, it won't be so difficult." ”
"If you get 8 places in the ion channel laboratory in three years, will you find it easy?" Yang Rui sneered and said: "It's better to gather together and come back with a bunch of professorial titles in public relations." ”
Dean Liu was speechless by Yang Rui. For universities, professors are the highest honor, and at the same time, there are many political, economic and social treatments, such as how many food stamps, how many meat stamps, how large the housing area, how much flat heating reimbursement is, whether you can buy a soft sleeper by plane, what medicine you can be reimbursed if you are sick, whether you live in a single ward or a four-person ward, and even how many books you can borrow in the library.
How many scholars have retired, but still can't get the title of professor, and the scale of the ion channel laboratory is only a little bit, not to mention taking 8 places in three years, and taking 3 places in 8 years is considered good.
In terms of the age and education of Gu Qiang, Su Xiankai and others, it is not too late to give them the title of professor after 20 years.
From this point of view, the solution proposed by Yang Rui is really the best solution.
Otherwise, when the title is evaluated every year and month in the future, you will have to do a battle. The emotions of the old professors or old associate professors should be taken care of, and the young lecturers and teaching assistants of other departments of Peking University must be left with room for advancement, and on the other hand, the ion channel laboratory that has made world-class achievements should not lack a sense of honor.
Dean Liu picked his feet anxiously, his eyes wandering.
After a few seconds, Dean Liu stared at Gu Qiang with annoyed eyes: "Hey, why did you suddenly make such a request." ”
I really couldn't think of an idea, and Dean Liu couldn't wait to anger the whole world.
Gu Qiang was like a husky who had just torn the sofa, shrunk his neck, and hid behind Yang Rui.
Yang Rui smiled and said, "What everyone cares about should be for the best scholars." Gu Qiang cares about professors, Wei Xingsi cares about professors, you care about professors, then Su Xiankai and Xu Zhengping are qualified to be professors, and let them stay up for time before they can be promoted, I don't think it's appropriate. Dean Liu, please leave this matter to you, please everyone. ”
Yang Rui arched his hand around, and got a chaotic response.
Director Zhu and Director Tong, especially the young administrative staff around them, were not as much as Dean Liu thought, they were somewhat influenced by Yang Rui's passionate speech, and they all had the idea of doing something big.
The 80s was the era of doing big things, and all Chinese wanted to do business and do big things.
No one here knows how to wholesale professors, and no one in the whole of China knows.
However, as Yang Rui said, no one in China has made a clear conformation of G protein-coupled receptors, no one in China has made a crystal structure of G protein-coupled receptors, and no one in China has made a three-dimensional structure of G protein-coupled receptors......
Dean Liu sighed heavily, and glared at Gu Qiang again, he didn't blame Yang Rui for making a request, he only blamed Gu Qiang for causing the incident.
Gu Qiang turned around and bared his teeth at Wei Xingsi, he didn't blame Dean Liu for being angry, he only blamed Wei Xingsi for being annoying.
Wei Xingsi was stunned for a long time, he also had an understanding of the domestic scientific research environment, but he didn't expect to see today's scene.
Compared with Yang Rui becoming a professor, the concept of all the professors in the ion channel laboratory alone is amazing.
Wei Xingsi silently recited the name that Yang Rui had said, and thought to himself: If it is really established, there will be 12 professors in the ion channel laboratory, and counting the students they bring, at least in terms of scale, it already has the structure of the world's top laboratory...... Well, if you count yourself, that's 13 professors!
