Chapter 290: Part-time
If the state of some great men before the rise of the hidden dragon in the abyss is used to describe the state of some great people, then the Peking University Library is a pool of bottomless "abyss". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Contrary to the imagination of ordinary people, the library is not just a place to store books, if it is only a place to store books, wouldn't the term book warehouse be more appropriate. The actual purpose of the library is to classify and organize books, and most importantly, to analyze and report on books.
"Overview of Chinese Core Journals" is an achievement led by Peking University Library, and in terms of use, "Overview of Chinese Core Journals" is no different from SCI, both of which are evaluations of the value of journals.
From a library's point of view, it's actually a money-saving job. Because there are thousands of periodicals in the world, no matter how large the library is, it cannot order all the periodicals without any choice, in this case, which journals to order requires an evaluation system.
In practical application, the core journal has become an evaluation criterion for Chinese journals, and publishing papers in core journals is considered to be at least meaningful, compared to ordinary people, whether it is a teacher or professor, or an engineer and artist, you have to evaluate the title, at least you have to publish articles in the core journal.
In 1983, although Peking University had not yet made this thing, the demand had actually appeared.
As far as foreign papers are concerned, the first thing they collect is also papers by Chinese authors.
When the subscribed journal arrives, first open the table of contents page, record the work unit, name and paper information of the Chinese authors, especially the domestic authors, and then sort them out month by month, so as to form a report for the whole country.
Before computers got involved, even rough work could have helped a lot.
When Tang arrived, he called out to two students and searched for them under the entry for "yang".
The three of them grinned and grinned, but they didn't find a suitable one.
Seeing that it was time to eat, a student whispered, "If you know the unit, maybe you can find some." ”
"He is from Peking University...... Wait, who knows what school he used to be?" Tang asked himself.
The two students looked at each other, how did they know which school Ruiyang used to be.
Tang Zhong touched his chin, wrote a note, called a student, and said, "You go to the administrative building now to ask, find the admissions office or the archives office, and ask them to check it." ”
When the students received the task, they rushed away.
When I came back, the note already had the words Xibao Middle School in Xi County, Nanhu City, Hedong Province.
"Check under the entry in Nanhu City first. Tang Zhong gave the order, and the two students went to flip through the entries with a hum.
A prefecture-level city, there are not many articles published in a year, Tang Zhong is worried that Yang Rui did not mark his unit at all, after all, he was a student then and now, and it seems normal not to mark the school in particular.
Of course, there is also the possibility that Yang Rui has not published articles before. However, Tang concentrated on recalling the review he read and felt that it was unlikely. Not to mention anything else, just the style of writing shows that the review is very mature.
The language of the paper does not need to be tempered a lot, but without a certain amount of accumulation, it is still very difficult to write a paper with a weight.
Yang Rui, as a freshman and at Peking University, no professor would be bored and make great efforts to revise an undergraduate's review. The more obvious answer is that if any professor puts so much effort into it, it is impossible not to sign the paper.
"Found it. ”
A student's relieved cry interrupted Tang Ji's thoughts, as if the director had called out the card, and the sound of agitation in the room disappeared.
Tang stood up and asked, "How many are there?"
"There seem to be more than a dozen of them. The student took the two sheets with the entries written on them to Tang Ji.
The fly's head is small, and the title of Yishui's book is marked with ruiyang, which appeared in front of Tang Ji.
"This is a paper written for the work of Zelicana. Tang Zhong remembered what Yang Rui had said, and secretly thought: His role in Jielikang seems to be not small.
The paper entries arranged according to the timeline were in Chinese and English on the first sheet, and Tang concentrated while reading the name, while pulling open the first sheet and looking at the second chapter card.
The three letters "ACS" skipped a few lines and came directly into Tang Zhong's eyes.
Tang concentrated on nothing else, and immediately looked at the entry carefully.
It turned out to be "ACS Chemical Biology...... Tang Zhong suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and said in his heart: It's good that it's not jacs and acsnano.
JACS is a top journal in the field of chemistry, which is a height that Tang Zhong himself could not reach, and if Yang Rui can publish such an article, he is embarrassed to include it in his research group.
However, Tang thought about it and said that ACS Chemical Biology is also a good journal.
A four-to-five-to-five impact factor may only be the criterion for a master's degree in American academia, but in China in the 80s, it was something that many local professors might not have achieved.
In the 80s, China's academic poverty was barren, and there was almost no meaningful academic foundation for the previous generation, and in the 80s, people started again, almost all of them started from SCI entry-level journals, except for a few professors who came back from abroad, and there were very few papers published in top journals in China.
ACS chemical biology journal, placed in Chinese journals, can also be said to be the top, if it were not for such a university like Peking University, other schools have such a student, can already show off.
Tang concentrated in Peking University is an ordinary cow, but he has also published papers with an impact factor of more than 10, and at this time, his mind immediately pondered in the direction of recruiting Yang Rui.
It seems unrealistic to let Yang Rui leave Jielikang's laboratory, Tang Zhong knows that now college students want to work in foreign companies, why so many people in Shenzhen rush to go, because the wages of workers in a foreign toy factory in Shenzhen are three or four hundred yuan, and many mainlanders would rather give up their lucrative government jobs or university teaching positions, and would rather go to Shenzhen to work as workers, which can illustrate the attraction gap between the two.
Working in the laboratory of Jielizena and entering Jielizena after graduation seems to be a very natural thing.
Such foreign enterprise laboratory work is hard to come by, and compared with domestic university laboratories, the attraction is not weak.
On the other hand, the R&D cost of several of Yang Rui's papers is more than tens of thousands of yuan, and the cost of the instrument is at least hundreds of thousands.
It can be said that the senior lecturers of Peking University do not have the experimental conditions like Yang Rui, and the associate professors who are almost at the level cannot win such a scale of funding.
Tang Central's laboratory has some accumulation, plus this year's application for a million yuan of funding, but it can support a laboratory that seems to be better than Yang Rui's entry, but Tang Central's laboratory is for Tang Concentration himself and many members of the scientific research group, and he can't give it to Yang Rui.
What's more, the research direction is also different.
Whether it is coenzyme Q10, or plant extraction, or solanesol refining, it has little to do with the protein research of Tang Central, and this is also the case with Yang Rui's recent review.
Thinking about it, Tang Zhong couldn't help but secretly say: Can he only let him work part-time? Even if he is afraid of part-time work, he is not willing.
Despite this doubt, Tang Zhong still decided to give it a try.
Early the next morning, Tang Zhong called Yang Rui and directly invited him to his laboratory.
As far as the administrative level of the laboratory is concerned, the first sequence in China should be the national key laboratory, the second sequence should be the provincial key laboratory, and the third series should be the departmental or university-level laboratory, such as the Provincial Department of Agriculture.
For laboratories that are lower than the third sequence, they are basically just laboratories, and it is difficult to call them research, and as far as the first series of laboratories is concerned, it is not capped, there are strong and weak, the strong have academicians and Yangtze River Scholars, and the weak ones are even only associate professors.
However, in the early 80s, the construction of national key laboratories had just begun, and those that could pass the application at this time were placed in the first sequence after 30 years.
The laboratory in Tang Centralized has applied for a national key laboratory, but it is still difficult to pass with the current equipment.
However, out of support for him, Peking University helped get more funds this year, which can be regarded as getting some benefits.
Yang Rui took a turn in the laboratory, silently compared with his own laboratory, and found that there were still some shortcomings.
To build a laboratory with personal funds, for social people, at least it must be at the level of the rich on the Forbes list, Yang Rui's current money is a lot, and compared with the country's investment, it is still too insignificant.
Even if Tang's laboratory is only at an average level, he is particularly deficient.
"The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard". Yang Rui muttered.
Under the curious gazes of the two graduate students in the laboratory, Tang Zhong asked, "What do you think of this laboratory?"
"It's good, but I have a job in the laboratory in Jielikang...... Yang Rui briefly explained again, he didn't know why Tang Zhong called himself to come to the laboratory, it stands to reason that Tang Zhong had no reason to ask him to join the research group again.
With Yang Rui's current situation, those who can still come up with tempting conditions are either Daben-level figures, with abundant funds under their names, and even have multiple laboratories, or ordinary professors, who do not restrict Yang Rui.
After thinking about it, Tang said with confidence: "Look at this, I will leave you an independent place in the laboratory, you usually help your classmates do some experiments, you can also use the equipment of the laboratory, and I can also apply for experimental materials from the school for you." Your paper can also be independently signed by you, but I would like you to add the name of my research group. Finally, I don't interfere with your work at Jielizene. ”
Translated from this passage, Yang Rui is allowed to work part-time in the experimental group of Tang Central, except for those who are named in the experimental group, only Yang Rui needs to help tutor and train other students.
At the same time, Yang Rui can also apply for funding from the government and schools through Tang's centralized research group, which is particularly rare, because neither Yang Rui nor Jielikang can obtain funding from the state.
Tang Zhong's proposal is similar to what Yang Rui gave to Wei Zhenxue back then, and they are both relatively independent relationships. However, Yang Rui is a student but has a laboratory, Wei Zhenxue is a researcher but lacks money, and Tang Zhong is rich and status, so it is indeed commendable to make such a proposal.
Yang Rui swallowed back all the words of resignation, and thought about it: "Jielizen will definitely ask for a special contract, that is, to distinguish the rights and obligations enjoyed by the two laboratories, can you agree?"
"Absolutely. However, you can only work in these two labs and cannot join other labs. Tang Zhong hoped that Yang Rui could help him train and manage students, in the words of later generations, to be a small boss.
If Yang Rui can support the work of training and managing scientific research dogs, even if he supports half of it, he can also liberate a teaching assistant to help Tang concentrate on work, compared to Yang Rui, Yang Rui only uses the equipment of the laboratory, and also hangs the name of the laboratory, which is no loss for him, which is equivalent to realizing the administrative value of the laboratory.
Yang Rui had no reason to object to this cooperation, and quickly made a decision, saying, "Thanks to Professor Tang's attention, in this case, I hope to apply to join your research group." ”
"Good, good. Tang Zhong was happy that there was one more cadre under his command, and encouraged morale: "I am applying for the national key laboratory, if the application is successful, you are also the veteran of the laboratory, if you do well, you will have the opportunity to stay in the university in the future......
Yang Rui is happy to be attached to the laboratory, so that at least the freedom of college students in the 21st century can be restored. In contrast, tutoring laboratory students is just a few more scientific research dogs, Yang Rui has been a scientific research dog, and he has also been a leading dog, and he doesn't take it seriously at all.
