A good laboratory, especially a chemical and biological laboratory, mainly depends on two aspects, the first is the equipment of the laboratory, and the second is the candidate for the laboratory.

The former determines the size of the laboratory, and the latter determines the direction and ceiling of the laboratory. The simplest examples are Cold Spring Harbor, the most famous in the biological world, and Watson, the head of Cold Spring Harbor, and the most well-known Cavendish Laboratory in the United Kingdom. The former is a model of a laboratory made by people, and the latter is a model of a series of people made by the laboratory.

Therefore, this is an important opportunity for Junxin and even for all the professors present. For Junxin, his laboratory has just been established, and what is needed is a large number of scholars to enrich it, so even as a student, Junxin hopes to get one or two associate professors or even professor-level scholars to join.

The '80s weren't a time for a research boom, but in a high-level school like Mizuki, there was a boom in research compared to later generations, but after all, resources were limited, so not every researcher had his own laboratory. Fortunately, the professor finally has his own topics and projects, and basically has a laboratory under his control. But most associate professors are not so lucky, and most of them are under the name of a full professor, or two or three associate professors work together to share a laboratory as collaborators.

In this way, it gives Junxin room to operate, and it is basically impossible to get professor-level figures to join, after all, professors have their own laboratories. But it was a surprise to have one or two associate professors with deep skills to join. Otherwise, you can only recruit graduate students or doctoral students to participate in the project. It's just that in this way, Junxin's workload will become very large, and he may not be able to take care of the mathematics institute, and I am afraid that Professor Hu will not be able to explain it at that time.

The same is true for professors and associate professors who are here. Fortunately, the professors are not very tempted, and even if they are, they are only thinking about the research proximity between their own laboratory and the new laboratory, so as to facilitate cooperation.

But for those associate professors, it's different. Jun Xin noticed that they asked very detailed questions about the details and considerations of the laboratory, especially the younger associate professor, and Jun Xin noticed that he had a clear opinion of his own about the topic of research, and it was quite feasible.

After the question was asked, Professor Cheng said, "This time the laboratory is in charge of Junxin, and he has discussed with me, and there are probably two people who need to join his laboratory. I have discussed with Professor Liang that there will be a person from their Institute of Chemical Engineering, and there will also be a person from our side, and the former is responsible for the research and application of quasicrystalline materials that Junxin just mentioned. The latter is responsible for the study of the physicochemical properties of quasicrystals. Junxin will be mainly responsible for the mathematical model and function distribution analysis of quasicrystals. ”

Professor Cheng's words obviously moved the hearts of many associate professors. They can't control the chemical industry institute, although they both belong to the chemical department, but after all, the direction is different, and the management is different. On the side of the School of Chemistry, they moved their minds.

Even if Junxin and Professor Cheng said it well, but after all, they still had a lot of worries in their hearts, first, they worked under the students, and they were a little embarrassed on their faces, and secondly, they were also worried about Junxin himself, after all, Junxin is only eighteen years old after the New Year. They were a little hesitant to say that Junxin would be able to lead a laboratory.

The professor's words reminded them that Junxin was a student of the Department of Mathematics after all, and he may have some experience and ability in the study of chemistry, but his main job is still mathematics, even if he established a laboratory, he only focused on mathematics, so joining but joining his laboratory will have a much higher degree of freedom in the future than doing experiments under other professors, such conditions let him

"I'm willing to join!" It was the young associate professor who had been asking for details just now.

"Xiao Xu, have you decided?" Professor Cheng frowned and asked.

"I just read a rough idea of that paper." Associate Professor Xu smiled mildly and said, "I studied crystal mechanics in graduate school, and my doctoral dissertation was on liquid crystals, and I had a more in-depth study of crystals, and this paper explained the meaning of quasicrystals and some general properties, which I think is close to my research direction, so I joined in after thinking, and it was not a hot head." ”

"Are you sure?" Professor Cheng asked.

"It's confirmed."

Professor Cheng turned his head to look at Junxin and nodded slightly. Jun believed it and understood what Professor Cheng meant.

"Then, Professor Xu, welcome to my team."

"Thank you!"

"Old car, how much is it necessary to build a laboratory?" The headmaster asked.

A polite middle-aged man next to the principal nodded to the principal and said, "Professor Cheng discussed with me some time ago, and prepared a total of 1 million funds, of which 300,000 were used to build the laboratory, and the remaining 700,000 were used for the research of the subject. After communicating with Professor Hu, it was decided that the Department of Mathematics would allocate 100,000 yuan for the research fee as the fund for the laboratory. In addition, I would like to discuss it with Professor Liang. ”

"Oh? When did this guy Hu have such great courage? Professor Liang, who had not spoken, opened his mouth at noon.

Professor Hu said that this is a reward for Junxin, after all, he has made great achievements twice in a row in half a year, which has caused a huge sensation in the mathematical community, so it is not too much to give him a little reward. In addition, he also represented the cooperation between the Department of Mathematics and the School of Chemistry, so naturally he could not weaken his momentum. ”

"This guy." Professor Liang shook his head. However, he was still very cautious and said: "The fund given by the university is 1 million, of which 300,000 is used to build a laboratory, and the remaining 700,000 plus 100,000 yuan from the Department of Mathematics, a total of 800,000 yuan, divided into three project groups, basically a year's research funds should be considered very sufficient." In this way, our chemical industry institute will pay 100,000 yuan and gather 900,000 yuan. ”

"Okay, what about the candidates?" The principal asked.

Professor Liang thought for a moment and said, "There are two people's words, but I have to look at them again." Get back to you in two days, and it shouldn't be a drag on the project. ”

"In this case, let's dismiss the meeting first, Lao Cheng, Lao Liang, Xiao Xu, Xiao Jun, you first discuss the issue of funding investment, and give Lao Che a letter after the end, the laboratory should start construction as soon as possible, and strive to make some achievements before other scientific research institutions invest a lot of money." The principal stood up and said to Junxin and the other five.

The five of them nodded hurriedly. The headmaster nodded in satisfaction and left. Other members of the school committee, professors and associate professors also began to leave. When Minister Bao left, he patted Junxin's shoulder cordially and said, "Xiaojun, don't forget to agree to cooperate with me in publicity!" ”

"How dare I forget what you have commanded? Try to keep it as little as possible, though. We have just made results, and we should take advantage of this period of time to establish the laboratory, make more achievements, and strive to lead the world. If it takes up too much time, it's not a good fit. ”

"Don't worry, I'll arrange everything, it won't take long." Minister Bao naturally knew that he solemnly agreed.
