Yang Zhou chatted with his mentor about the hegemony of biotechnology, and in the end, Bai Shulong was persuaded and felt that Yang Zhou could be given a chance, mainly because CRISPR technology costs less money, but the probability of producing results is relatively low.

"It's no problem for you to re-do the CRISPR project, but it only gives you half a year, if there is no result in half a year, it is better to do hybrid research with me, and the time for changing the master's thesis is not enough, just apply for a master's and doctor's degree, I really want you to stay in my laboratory." Bai Shulong said.

Combined master's and doctoral programs are generally applied for in the second and third years, which is equivalent to giving up a master's degree and directly pursuing a doctorate.

Moreover, the threshold is relatively high, and only very good undergraduate students can apply.

Now that Qingbei College of Life Sciences has been restructured, only master's and doctor's students are trained, and there is not much resistance to changing Yang Zhou's master's and doctor's degree.

In fact, the restructuring is still because the school is multi-disciplinary at the same time, which is not conducive to the overall talent training plan, and now it is implemented to train in different disciplines, such as Wuhan University is good at physics, then it is good at cultivating physics students, and Mizuki is good at mathematics and focuses on mathematics.

Qingbei biology is very strong, and in the past, the biology departments of the three top schools of Mizuki, Qingbei and Jingcheng University were all attributed to the School of Life Sciences.

It was only in recent years that it was reseparated, and the biology department of Mizuki University was rebuilt.

It is precisely because of the restructuring that Bai Shulong is convenient for Yang Zhou to give up his master's degree and directly study for a doctorate.

For ordinary people, there is a certain risk of giving up the master's degree that can be obtained immediately, but for Yang Zhou, there is no risk.

He was curious: "Teacher, if I complete my doctoral dissertation this year, can I apply for doctoral graduation in advance?" ”

"That's definitely not going to work, after transferring to a Ph.D., you have to retake the doctoral credits, unless you complete all the exams, plus you have studied for 4 years, and if you study for another 1 year, and pass the doctoral dissertation defense, you will be able to graduate."

"It's not that easy, the difficulty of the master's thesis and the doctoral dissertation is completely different, and when the department chair, the dean and the academician have to review the doctoral dissertation together to assess you, and it is difficult to pass the research without groundbreaking." Bai Shulong explained.

Maybe it was because he was worried about scaring Yang Zhou, Bai Shulong said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, the project I am carrying out now will be divided into a topic for you at that time, although the doctoral dissertation must be completed independently, but it will not affect me if I give you a topic, so I will definitely be able to graduate within 2 years." ”

Yang Zhou knew that it was purely Professor Bai who took care of him.

Zhibo only stayed in the school for one more year, and his initial plan was to stay in the school, and if he continued to work in the school laboratory after obtaining a doctorate, he would be a postdoctoral fellow, and there were many opportunities to stay in the school as a teacher.

The most important thing is that Yang Zhou is very confident in the gene editing technology of the mysterious space, if he can replicate it in the real world, it is equivalent to filling the gap in domestic science and technology.

It is possible to give a professor title directly, and he immediately agreed.

I agreed with the professor for half a year, and if he didn't make any progress in gene editing within half a year, he would spend one and a half years doing his doctoral dissertation.

Today's doctoral students basically learn knowledge in the first few years, and stay for the next year or two to concentrate on writing their dissertations.

During this period, I basically waited for a long time to do experiments in the laboratory, mainly to see which boss I followed.

The boss is the professor who follows, such as a professor with a doctoral student, who basically has his own research group and laboratory.

Cultivating a doctor is a real scientific research practical talent, and undergraduate and graduate students are basically scientific research dogs in the laboratory, and doctors can be regarded as people who can take charge of themselves.

The boss is the person who grasps the general direction, gives scientific research plans, and solves various problems encountered.

After reaching a consensus with his mentor, Yang Zhou began to ask for help.

Other laboratory equipment labs have it, but there is no confocal microscope.

This instrument can obtain three-dimensional information of the whole sample, and is a key experimental instrument for gene editing experiments.

"I'll help you ask, if you want to fund the experiment, you can submit the application when the time comes, and show me first." Bai Shulong finally said.

"Okay!" Yang Zhou nodded happily.

It takes time to design the project, and Yang Zhou also has to collect the latest paper information, and then plan the experimental funds, and apply for funds at the school.

At present, Yang Zhou himself does not know how much money is needed.

Professor Bai was very busy, and after checking the plant growth and experiment records in the laboratory, he left in a hurry, not only on the subject of the School of Life Sciences, but also on cooperation projects with other departments, but other experiments were in another place.

For example, there are countless companies seeking after university scientific research leaders, and some even allocate funds from the Ministry of Agriculture to research and tackle a certain project.

Yang Zhou is currently helping his mentor take care of the hybridization project in this laboratory in Qingbei, and if he publishes a paper, he can also mix two or three works.

The problem was solved, Yang Zhou took out his mobile phone again and looked at it, and with the traffic of Douyin, his terminally ill goodnight video also appeared in front of more people.

The number of followers has also reached thousands of people, and at this time, there have been doubts in the comment area.

Some netizens suspected that Yang Zhou was pretending to have a terminal illness and was using this method to attract fans, but Yang Zhou did not explain, at this rate, maybe he would be able to get 10,000 experience points the day after tomorrow.

Now it is necessary to quickly solve the problem of carrot sales, Yang Zhou decided to investigate how vegetable wholesale works.

In the afternoon, he left the little sister in the laboratory to watch his family, and Yang Zhou began his research trip.

First go to the school cafeteria, if you provide carrots to the cafeteria, it will be much less trouble.

Yang Zhou found a sophomore undergraduate student who came to work in the laboratory, Wu Qi.

At the beginning, Yang Zhou heard him say that he usually works part-time in the canteen, so he should be able to get in touch with the procurement of ingredients.

Yang Zhou made an appointment with Wu Qi, and the senior brother invited him, and Wu Qi immediately came running.

For Wu Qi, Yang Zhou is a person who needs to be stammered, because Yang Zhou can influence the recruitment of mentors to a certain extent.

For example, the next time the laboratory is short of people, and you have to find undergraduates to work, as long as Yang Zhou nods, Wu Qi can come to Professor Bai's plant laboratory again, and the part-time subsidy is at least 1,000 yuan per month, and the life is relatively easy.

Yang Zhou met Wu Qi in the school's milk tea shop, his skin was very dark, he was dressed plainly, he was shirt-shirted and shorts, and he had a pair of small white shoes, and the whole person looked very simple.

"Senior brother!" Wu Qi showed his white teeth and shouted happily.

Yang Zhou handed him a cup of bubble tea and said with a smile: "I asked you about something, aren't you working part-time in the back hall of the canteen?" Do you know what vegetable procurement is all about? ”

"Where do I know this, the eight canteens in our school seem to be managed by ourselves, and they are not contracted out, these should be unified procurement." Wu Qi shook his head and said.

He is just a wage earner, helping to chop and wash vegetables, and he doesn't know any big people.

If you really know the big guys, you won't be reduced to a vegetable washer.

Yang Zhou didn't completely count on the junior brother, and continued to inquire about the news.

Ten minutes later, Yang Zhou roughly knew the situation in the school cafeteria, there are about 30,000 teachers and students in the school, and there are 10,000 or 20,000 people who eat at the school every day.

The amount of ingredients consumed is staggering, and if you can become a vegetable supplier in the canteen, you can indeed make a lot of money.

For example, ordinary vegetables can be planted, and ten acres of land plus the double speed growth of the system can grow countless vegetable varieties.

It's just that in order to open up the canteen channel, it is necessary to find the canteen procurement personnel.

After Yang Zhou sent his junior away, he thought in his mind that the classmate knew the person who purchased in the canteen.

This person must be familiar with the school staff to be possible, like ordinary students who have no access to canteen procurement at all.

Yang Zhou is not doing a bad thing, he just wants to provide high-quality and inexpensive vegetables to the school canteen, and even dump them at a low price, which is also profitable for the canteen, Yang Zhou feels that there is a lot of hope.
