Chapter 956: I'm going to be a learning valve
Xizhazi Township is a purely agricultural township, except for the charcoal-burning brick-burning clay workshop, there is almost no decent industry, therefore, let alone 2 million US dollars, 200,000 yuan is also a huge amount of money for Xizhazi Township. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
During the years when Yang Feng was the secretary of the township party committee, economic construction was not the main line of work, at least not in inland provinces like Hedong.
However, the importance of funding goes without saying
Yang Feng's experience allowed him to maintain the situation in Xizhaizi Township, and the so-called food finance is actually eight jars and seven covers. The main source of income in agricultural townships comes from agriculture, and agricultural production is characterized by concentrating money and spending large sums of money.
How to raise funds to complete the work assigned by the superiors before the autumn harvest and how to make good use of the only policies and resources in hand are the greatest knowledge for the cadres of Xizhaizi Township.
In this day and age, no one thinks about what would happen if I had 2 million.
No one has 2 million, and neither does the township government.
However, the words of English and translators next door still kept coming.
"Mr. Yang Rui, Professor Dalbeko told me that you insist on placing the laboratory in China, so that the US government will not be able to bear all the costs, at least in terms of infrastructure, such as the cost of land use and the construction of the laboratory, we hope that the Chinese side will bear part of it...... Of course, these are not very strict requirements, we just want to make it easier to apply for funding...... In short, our goal now is to complete the development of the second-generation PCR as soon as possible, and on this premise, we will provide as much funding as possible. "The fleshy Tobyles is very sincere, and he looks like I'm showing you all my bottoms.
Yang Rui's tone did not change much: "$2 million is not an abundant fund. β
He spoke in Chinese, and the translator spoke again in English, making the pace of the conversation unusually slow.
In the living room, the cadres with their ears pricked up were stunned one by one.
$2 million isn't enough, what are you going to do?
Tobyles was very nervous, and hurriedly said: "$2 million is just the first batch of funds, mainly to improve the laboratory conditions for you." After the laboratory is completed, the total amount of funds can be increased by another 200 to 3 million. β
"Five million in total?"
"Yes. β
"5 million is not enough. Yang Rui laughed twice.
Tobyls hesitated for a moment and said, "I contacted the professors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences earlier, and they asked for a budget of 3 million US dollars. β
"Then why don't you ask them to do it. Yang Rui chuckled twice.
Tobyles quickly apologized, saying: "I knew they might have a problem with their budget, so I didn't promise them." However, 5 million is indeed the limit of the Ministry of Energy, and if it is raised, it will be a project. β
"The U.S. Department of Energy is also too stingy. β
The rabbits in the next room shouted in unison: This is stingy!
"Yes, it's mainly that Congress is too stingy, and Professor Dalbeko is already applying for additional funding, but this also requires us to show a little bit of results, you know, members of Congress always want to see results......"
"I can understand that. β
"Great......" a relieved expression appeared on Tobys' fleshy cheeks.
"In this case, I still don't want to take Doe's money. Yang Rui said something that surprised Tobyls.
Even more astonished than Tobyles were the Chinese cadres in the next room.
Yang Feng couldn't help but stand up first, and listened to his son say, "Sinovel is currently with healthy cash flow and can complete the research and development of the second-generation PCR by itself." β
Adhering to Yang Rui's consistent intentions, he is unwilling to share any rights and interests of PCR.
But Yang Rui's words made Yang Feng incomprehensible, and Yang Feng, who was anxious about everything in the development zone, rushed in and said, "You don't want money, I want it."
Fortunately, he still held back, but his whole face was red and frightening.
Tobyles wanted to complete the task, but he had to persuade Yang Rui to collect the money.
The two of them pushed and refused one by one, and soon used English and communicated at a fast pace, leaving the township cadres in the next room to look at each other.
"College students are different. The township chief was the first to bark at Yang Feng.
Yang Feng smiled bitterly and said, "It's stupid to read." β
The crowd agreed.
The English voice in the next room quickly became slow, and after a while, I heard Yang Rui use Chinese again: "I'll send you out." β
The translator was translated as usual.
At the same time, the township cadres, including Yang Feng, all stood up and looked at the bedroom door where they had just spoken.
Tobyls bent his fat waist and withdrew step by step, speaking in a bird language that no one could understand.
Yang Rui just shook his head, greeted everyone, and said in Chinese: "Huarui is enough to independently complete the research of the second generation of PCR, but it took your money, you have to check this, ask for that, it's too troublesome." β
Tobels hurriedly asked someone to translate and said, "I'm in charge of the inspection, and it won't be troublesome." β
"Inspection is the standard of the DOE, can you call the shots?"
Tobyles didn't dare to guarantee the ticket.
Yang Feng understood it now, nodded lightly, Comrade Yang Feng, who has been the emperor of the soil all his life, is most unhappy to be checked.
His movements were noticeable to Tobyls.
Seeing that he was about to be sent out by Yang Rui, Tobels was in a hurry and asked the translator: "This is Yang Rui's home, and this is Yang Rui's father?"
The translation says "yes".
Tobyles asked Yang Rui, "Can I talk to your father? He's a local government official, right?"
Tobyls also read the information when he came out.
Yang Rui nodded.
Torbys hurriedly ran to Yang Feng and shook hands to greet him.
The township cadres who were originally sitting opposite Yang Feng took a step back in unison.
To say that the fleshy American Tobyles is not particularly strong, but compared with the cadres in Xizhai Township, his figure and body shape are still a circle or two larger, and the most important thing is that he has never seen the appearance of a white race, which is weird.
Yang Feng was stunned for a moment, shook hands with Tobyles with a smile, and made a cordial conversation through the translator.
After a casual conversation on two topics, Tobyles talked about the importance of the Department of Energy and the PCR, and, consciously or unconsciously, hinted that he had the right to sponsor some government projects.
Yang Feng suddenly became interested, he didn't know the specific situation, so he didn't say whether he wanted it or not, but asked carefully.
Yang Rui stood on the side with a smile, and his thoughts quickly flew out of the room.
After solving Dean Cha's problem, Yang Rui's road in China is actually very spacious.
Now, Professor Cai and Professor Wu Hongbo, who support Yang Rui, cannot be said to cover the sky single-handedly, but they also master most of the energy of the domestic biological community, which means that Yang Rui can easily apply for a large amount of funds, and the amount and requirements are impossible for professors of any era to ask for.
However, Yang Rui was reluctant to apply for such funding himself.
It's like Professor Wu Hongbo won't take these funds at will, and Professor Cai won't use all the funds of the Department of Biology of Peking University, but has allocated hundreds of thousands of yuan to Yang Rui more than once.
The reason is very simple, when it comes to the status of Professor Cai and Professor Wu Hongbo, they are already the first in China.
And the key to becoming a gate valve is not how good you are, but how good your door is.
You spent all the money yourself, what's that called.
And if Yang Rui is determined to get domestic funds and get funds from Professor Cai and Professor Wu Hongbo, then no matter how strong his academic ability is, he will be Professor Cai and Professor Wu Hongbo's protΓ©gΓ© after all - although there is nothing wrong with Yang Rui in the past, let alone being a doorman for academician-level figures, any committee-level professor will be grateful to be a lackey.
But Yang Rui's goal doesn't stop there.
He has been nominated for the Nobel Prize, if it weren't for his qualifications, he would have been a scholar now, and he couldn't write an application for millions of yuan every day.
Of course, these funds are also needed, but it is better to give your own laboratory than to take it yourself, just like Professor Cai and Professor Wu Hongbo did.
The transfer of funds is only one of the sufficient conditions for becoming a learning valve, and the creation of funds is a necessary condition.
Tobyles has a $5 million quota in exchange for PCR rights, but Yang Rui is not willing at all.
But to say that Yang Rui is not interested in the $5 million in his hand at all, that is not necessarily the case.
The gifts were all delivered to the house, and I was always embarrassed to let him take them back.
Seeing that Tobyls had already made a donation of $100,000 in order to tempt Comrade Yang Feng, Yang Rui slowly spoke: "Tobyls, the Ministry of Energy, mainly Mr. Dalbeko, mainly wants to prepare for the human genome project, right?"
"Yes, the Human Genome Project is the ...... of the Project of the Century"
"I know, I know. I support the Human Genome Project, but the rights and interests of second-generation PCR cannot be ceded to the Ministry of Energy...... However, in addition to PCR, there are many projects that need to be done for the Human Genome Project, and if there is financial support, I can also help. Yang Rui said more cautiously, in fact, in addition to PCR, which is both academic and commercial projects, Yang Rui is also interested in doing purely academic and non-commercial projects.
Of course, you can't pay for it yourself.
Tobyles hesitated: "Mr. Dalbeko wants to complete the second-generation PCR project as soon as possible, if you only do one project......"
"If I only do one project, I probably have to waste more time on other things. So, if the DOE can support a few other projects, I can instead focus my energy and time on the second-generation PCR project. Yang Rui spoke in English, and his expression was "What I'm talking about is politics."
Tobyls suddenly understood, and thought about it seriously.
