Yang Rui is not as relaxed as Sun Ruyue described, but he does have a feeling of getting more and more relaxed. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Laboratory management is a science, as far as the Manhattan Project to make the atomic bomb, as far as the Apollo moon landing program, and in the future, there will be human gene sequencing, all of which require the participation of tens of thousands of researchers, and it is very difficult to arrange their work rationally and allocate experimental equipment and laboratories reasonably.

For example, in the Manhattan Project in the 40s, the Americans concentrated all their researchers in the desert. There are many new infrastructure projects, planning laboratories, assigning laboratories, etc., and it is difficult to ensure that everyone has an independent laboratory for such a large project, which is too high and wasteful, and it is quite difficult to arrange the work of different researchers. Unlike ordinary factories, where workers have similar attributes that can be classified, and can even be exchanged and transferred to each other, the scope of application of researchers who have reached the atomic level in physics is quite narrow, and the work cannot be arranged according to local conditions, which often means a waste of talent.

The Apollo moon landing is no longer a huge project in a city, it is spread across the United States and its allies, and coordination is more important than organization.

Although the human genome mapping claims to be participated by several countries, it is the number of countries that pay for it, and the actual participation of researchers is all over the world, and there are countless independent laboratories participating, which doubles the complexity.

If the ordinary laboratories in the 80s did not need much management experience, the laboratories after the 2000s are no longer ordinary.

Yang Rui did not have the opportunity to do laboratory organization or laboratory management before, but he has participated in many inter-laboratory activities and cooperation between pharmaceutical companies. In fact, two decades from 1984 onwards, there has been far more collaboration between laboratories and between laboratories and enterprises than in the case of independence.

At the beginning of the project to clone the potassium channel mutant gene, Yang Rui was still clumsy, but as the project gradually progressed, he also received high-intensity training.

The huge pressure and realistic requirements made Yang Rui constantly recall the managers he had come into contact with, and when he had free time, he would also try to read articles and books on laboratory organization written by later generations.

Although he is not as talented in experiments as Wang Ying, nor as good at mathematics as Zhao Pingchuan, Yang Rui is indeed a very fast learner in terms of laboratory organization and management.

For him, as long as he sees the work and researchers in the laboratory as children in cram school, all problems will be solved.

It's true that the work here is a bit more difficult than the homework in cram school, but the researchers are much easier to manage than the students.

Yang Rui kept balancing and learning, and gradually relaxed.

The puzzles needed for the paper have been completed piece by piece, and there are fewer and fewer problems left on the whiteboard in the laboratory.

Under the condition of ensuring that the progress is accelerated, Yang Rui no longer asks for longer working hours.

After all, research work is an intellectual activity, although most of the time is done physical work, but the fatigue of the brain is real, and a little more rest time will naturally ensure the concentration of energy at other times.

Xu Anqing didn't have such luck.

Cloning a mutant gene for a potassium channel is easier said than done, and in fact, the idea of just such a sentence does not help the process in any way.

The whole experimental process has to be tried little by little, halfway through, and if you find that this road does not work, you have to start again.

They have almost no reference, and no one has done similar work before, but because of this, Richard will not hesitate to plagiarize Yang Rui's "creativity", once this experiment is done, it will naturally become a benchmark for future generations, not only can it mix a lot of impact factors, but also is a pretty good career record.

Unfortunately, Richard ran into the "no way" problem.

After half a month of trying, the carrier method they tried proved that it could not continue, which is also normal in scientific research, and in the face of unknown results, no matter how good the theory is, it cannot determine a completely correct path, otherwise there is no need to do experiments.

The so-called experiments, of course, will have mistakes, and in most cases, mistakes are more frequent than correct.

However, normal mistakes often mean more stress for researchers.

Everyone wants a good start, everyone wants smooth sailing, and when things don't go well, a positive response is also to put in more effort.

Richard spends more time in the laboratory, which also means that Xu Anqing and Zhu Jiahao, two interns, have to spend more and more time in the laboratory.

Richard's doctoral student Connors bears the responsibilities of a scientific research migrant worker and a small boss, in order to keep his mind active, he still has a little more rest time, and not much free time, students like Xu Anqing and Zhu Jiahao are naturally undoubtedly treated as experimental dogs, as long as their eyes can be opened, and they have to finish the hard work while drinking coffee.

If the rhythm of life in the first two weeks is still something Xu Anqing can bear, the rhythm of life after "this road is not working" begins to become cruel.

Xu Anqing had to give up his happiest breakfast time and change his lunch to a working meal at any time, and they used the working time to discuss the next direction of the experiment, or, Richard and Connors, who decided the direction of the experiment, to assign tasks to others.

In just a few days, Xu Anqing lost weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Fortunately, when the experiment was finally on the right track and caught up with the progress again, the little boss Connors gave Xu Anqing and Zhu Jiahao a half-day vacation, so that they didn't have to work or be on standby.

Although it was only half a day, Xu Anqing and Zhu Jiahao hurried out of the laboratory as if they had been amnestied.

"I didn't know the lab was so scary. ”

"That's how you work in the lab in the future?"

Xu Anqing and Zhu Jiahao spoke in unison, and then laughed at each other.

"Let's go, let's go eat something good, I'm going back to get some good sleep. Xu Anqing hugged Zhu Jiahao and walked towards the cafeteria.

Zhu Jiahao broke free a little uncomfortably, and said with a smile: "I just want to go back and rest." ”

"If you don't eat enough, the more you sleep, the more tired you become, listen to me. Xu Anqing dragged Zhu Jiahao and didn't let him go.

When he arrived at the cafeteria, Xu Anqing had no intention of saving, so he ordered four dishes in one go, and the students with red armbands kept paying attention.

Xu Anqing smiled provocatively, and returned to his position with three meat and one vegetarian.

The people wearing red armbands are all student union cadres similar to the wind correction team, but they also have no right to enforce orders, there are few people in the cafeteria, and the red armbands stared at him for a while, but still didn't come.

Zhu Jiahao breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Don't make trouble, I finally rested for a long time, do you want to be in the office?"

It's the 80s, and what we should think about is how to give people more food, build more houses, make more clothes, produce more vehicles, and not control everyone, not let them eat, not let them wear, not let them use, not let them live. ”

"Isn't that much not yet produced?"

"So it's more important to focus on producing more things, and you think that the people who are in charge of the distribution will be able to make people give up voluntarily? Moreover, who is in charge of the assigned people? We are still students, and the student department of the school will get some pickets to manage us, and when we go to society, which picket team can control whether you eat meat or drink soup for dinner today? Who dares to care about the dining table of the official's family. Xu Anqing, like other young people in the school, was full of disadvantages.

"Aren't you an official in your family? You're a high-ranking cadre, right?"

Xu Anqing was stunned for a moment, and said: "So I know what it is like to be an official, and I am even more opposed to them engaging in this kind of formalism, standing in the canteen one by one and wasting time, what contribution can they make in the future? Of course, they may not be able to do other work, so they can only stand here, if this is the case, they should sit down and rest, so as not to eat too much and waste food." ”

Zhu Jiahao was a little uncomfortable with his words, and said with a smile: "Don't think about it so much, didn't the professor say that the experiment should be completed before the Spring Festival? That is a matter of a month, when you go home, you can eat as much as you want, waste as much as you want, and no one cares about you." Besides, didn't you buy 4 dishes and come back? No one said anything about you. ”

That's what I mean, since everyone can't manage what they do at home, what is it that doesn't just manage the students in the school? Not everyone in the school is in charge of the students, and they can manage whatever they want, and they don't care about it. ”

"Be quieter. Zhu Jiahao was really afraid that he would be ruined in Xu Anqing's hands this afternoon, so he pulled him and said: "You should be like you, eat whatever you want?" Most people don't have money to eat well, they don't have money to buy vegetables, you buy 4 dishes at a time, no one will say it, and it is estimated that it is about to be a holiday. ”

Xu Anqing pouted, in the case that ordinary students only receive five yuan and ten yuan per month from their families, and some students don't even take money from their families, he takes dozens of yuan from his family every month, and he really has no say in this point.

"I just can't get angry. I said, Yang Rui doesn't often eat and drink? I have seen him eat a small stove outside the school several times before, and I met him in the laboratory, which time did he not mention something in his hand? The clothes he wears, I dare to say, the fabric is better than the coats issued by the general, and no one cares......

"Maybe I just didn't catch it. "Chu Jiahao doesn't care about that.

Xu Anqing shook his head: "He knows the president of the student union, otherwise, you think ......"

Zhu Jiahao became a little interested at this time, and said: "The president of the student union is not a senior? ”

"Whatever, go back to sleep after eating. Xu Anqing had no interest in talking. He didn't make many friends at school, and it was clear that the environment in Beijing was very different from that in Guangzhou, which made him feel more lonely, and Chu Jiahao was never a good listener or conversational partner.

There were three meat dishes, Xu Anqing and Zhu Jiahao ate more than two catties of rice, and to the extent that they had to support their stomachs, they supported each other and returned to the dormitory with a smile.

"Where have you gone, I've been waiting for you for a quarter of an hour. At the door of the dormitory building, Assistant Teacher Liu was anxious to turn around, and when he saw the two of them, he pulled them to the other side of the wall.

"Slow down, slow down, isn't this afternoon a holiday? Xu Anqing was full of food, and was shaken by Assistant Teacher Liu's straight pantothenic acid.

Assistant Teacher Liu couldn't help but pull them into the corner and said, "I also want to know what's wrong, Xu Anqing, you're a biological science major, right, do you know Yang Rui?"

Xu Anqing was strange in his heart, and said: "I know, I don't know it." ”

"If you're not familiar with it, find a familiar one to ask, I heard that ......" Assistant Teacher Liu looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "I heard that Sinovel laboratory seems to be making something." ”

"What did you make?" Xu Anqing suddenly felt a little weak, Richard used Yang Rui's creativity, this news, outsiders don't know or care, inside their laboratory, how much have they heard some rumors.

Assistant Teacher Liu also belongs to outside the inner circle, but in front of Xu Anqing, he can't lose his face, and frowned: "What is it to do, I want you to find out, Richard's side, I have already found someone from a foreign journal to understand the situation, and you can also ask your classmates, how much news counts." ”

"Find someone from the journal to find out about the situation? It means that Yang Rui's paper has been published? Have they cloned the mutant gene?" Xu Anqing's face became smaller.

"It can't be so fast, but I can't say, hey, I'm asking you to ask, what do you ask me to do......" Assistant Professor Liu was angry and anxious, and finally entered Richard's laboratory, he also wanted to make a career.

Zhu Jiahao asked weakly: "That, we have a holiday this afternoon." ”

"If the mutant gene is cloned in the Huarui laboratory, you will have a holiday every day in the future!" Assistant Professor Liu gritted his teeth.
