Ten o'clock in the morning. Yenching University. In the office of Professor Li Hongwei. Sitting on the sofa and drinking tea, Professor Li Hongwei took out a document and handed it to Zhao Heng.

"Professor, what is this?" Zhao Heng was a little puzzled, he came today, mainly to get about his studies and courses, and came to Professor Li Hongwei's side, just to take a look at him by the way.

With the care of Professor Li Hongwei, on the other hand, Zhao Heng has indeed made scientific research achievements that far exceed the graduate level, or even the doctoral level, so Zhao Heng's master's and doctor's degree is still very different from others.

Medicine is different from other disciplines, and if you want to get a doctorate, you have to go through this process at least.

Of course, if Zhao Heng alone came up with the results of "Nature" or "Cell", then no matter which university in the world, he would definitely be awarded a doctorate or even a professorship immediately.

Zhao Heng developed several previous achievements together with Professor Li Hongwei, and even if he published a paper, he was only the second author.

To be honest, it is very rare for young people to have such support as Professor Li Hongwei.

Otherwise, judging from the actual situation in the current scientific research community, it is basically impossible for Zhao Heng to mix a second author.

"You take a look first." Professor Li Hongwei smiled kindly, looked at Zhao Heng and said. At present, Zhao Heng is the most talented scientific researcher he has ever seen, and it can be said that there will be no such a talented young man in the future.

After all, at this age, you can keep up with his scientific research ideas, and then in scientific research and development, on a par with him, in the current era of cutting-edge scientific research has been comprehensively refined and deepened, such young people can be said to be very few.

Therefore, for the cultivation and promotion of Zhao Heng, Professor Li Hongwei also spared no effort.

"Hmm." Zhao Heng nodded, took the document and looked at it carefully, and after a while, Zhao Heng put down the document.

"Isn't that going to be a little too much, Professor?" Zhao Heng looked at Professor Li Hongwei and said with some surprise.

"You have also participated in the research and development of siRNA colloidal beams throughout the process, and you have no problem taking half of the royalty royalty, and you have played a key role." Li Hongwei smiled disapprovingly and said.

Obviously, he values Zhao Heng more than the person, as for the annual patent royalties of tens of millions of siRNA colloidal beams, he really doesn't particularly care, after all, he has billions of projects in his hands, and his personal assets are at least hundreds of millions.

An elder of his level has no pursuit of money at all, after all, in terms of life, there is nothing to worry about himself, salary and bonus, that is pocket money.

Not to mention the patents in hand, you can make a lot of money every year. What Li Hongwei attaches more importance to is the inheritance of scientific research, and now in terms of scientific research, China is basically out of gear, especially in biomedicine.

"This document has come into effect, and the patent fee will be credited to your account every quarter in the future, I am no longer young, I know that you young people have a lot of ideas, let it go." Li Hongwei said with some sighs, although he is only in his early fifties, he is not too old for a scientist.

But his family knows his own affairs, and Li Hongwei knows that for the rest of his life, the most he can do is to strengthen and deepen the nanotherapy and stem cell cultivation that he has developed, and if he spends decades developing new fields, he will no longer have the spare energy.

Therefore, Zhao Heng's scientific research and development capabilities, as well as his age, are all in the eyes of Li Hongwei.

It can be said that in Li Hongwei's eyes, Zhao Heng is the hope for the future of domestic biomedicine. Although in the eyes of many people, Li Hongwei's attention to Zhao Heng and the treatment he gave him exceeded the standard, which made many people complain.

But Li Hongwei knows that at least in the field of biomedicine, if he sticks to the rules and sticks to those outdated rules of seniority, then there is really no hope at all.

At present, the field of scientific research, especially in the field of biomedical research, has exceeded too many foreign countries for unspeakable reasons, and if we do not train young people and successors, it will not be a problem of catching up or not.

"Thank you, Professor." Hearing Li Hongwei's words, Zhao Heng was a little moved, although there are some problems in the domestic scientific research field, for example, some people ridiculed that domestic scientific research is the kind of Hawking who has to stand up and toast when he comes.

For example, the biggest scam in the history of science, and the biggest black history of the Nobel Prize, leukotomy, not only deceived the Nobel Prize, deceived the Western academic community for more than 20 years, but also struck the brains of 300,000 people and turned 30,000 people into idiots.

If you want to say that this is a matter of the last century, then in recent years, there have been a large number of fatal experts in the United States about the regeneration of mammalian stem cells and hearts, with a time span of nearly 20 years, hundreds of fake articles and patents before and after, and billions of funds defrauded, which has seriously affected the formal development of related academics, and the loss of funds and time is huge.

Therefore, this matter is both domestic and foreign, and it cannot be said only at home. Many people think that foreign researchers have high status, good welfare benefits, and relaxed working conditions, which is just a kind of propaganda.

In fact, there is a good example, that is, in the previously popular American drama "The Big Bang Theory", a California school researcher, can only live in a shared apartment, and finding a beautiful restaurant waiter as a girlfriend is regarded as Gao Pan, and even has to accompany a rich woman for scientific research funds, and there are many more.

"Xiao Zhao, now many people think that China does not attach importance to scientific research, and young people have a feeling that they have never met talents, but in fact, this is a wrong impression." Professor Li Hongwei said with some sighs.

Regarding the fact that young people always feel that they do not meet talents, in fact, Professor Li Hongwei's views are different.

Nowadays, many young people feel that they are more or less talented, and more people feel that their platform has delayed their development, but in fact, when they really change their platform and can show their abilities, they will immediately be cowardly.

They all work in the same unit and have been together for so many years, how can there be so many talents, they are all ordinary people, and they have not seen any unique insights and profound ideas in their work, the difference is that some people know that they are ordinary people, not geniuses.

In the field of scientific research, it is difficult to admit that you are mediocre, and it is easier to dump the pot on others.

To be honest, research is just too hard. There are three facts about scientific research that cannot be changed. For the first time, 90% of scientific research and scientific researchers have not made any achievements in their lifetimes, and the remaining 9% have only made small achievements, but to find out who is the 1%, and to pave the way for the 1% who don't know where, the other 99% need to be responsible for paving the way and being the denominator.

Secondly, there will inevitably be a learning valve in scientific research, because today, when both the natural sciences and the humanities and social sciences have developed to such a point, the vast majority of the work done by scientific researchers can only be understood by a small circle of people, and others cannot understand what they are doing at all.

Do you dare to imagine the scene of the natural fund handing over to the leaders of some horse institutes who have graduated with master's and doctoral degrees, or even the national draft?

Moreover, scientific research requires a lot of money, and the investment in science and engineering research is extremely amazing, which is destined to be the only country that is not bad for money to make breakthroughs in the field of science and engineering, which is one of the major reasons for China's achievements in natural science in recent years: only with money can you buy enough high-precision instruments to raise / dig the top team.

Schools that are short of money are gradually falling behind, and schools that are not short of money are developing for the better. These three points are the same all over the world, the eldest brother does not laugh at the second brother, as long as you do scientific research, you will inevitably have these characteristics, which is a normal phenomenon, what you need to do is to consciously control the adverse effects, and crack down on the problem in a timely and decisive manner.

"If you really want to be able to make achievements, or you are a real genius, such a person, the light that blooms cannot be hidden by anyone or anything, Xiao Zhao, you must believe this." After a pause, Professor Li Hongwei said earnestly.

These words were a great expectation for Zhao Heng.

"I see, Professor." Zhao Heng nodded, Professor Li Hongwei's words can be said to be heart-wrenching.

"Xiao Zhao, to a certain extent, biomedicine is the most important discipline for human beings, and there is no one. But as you know, in terms of capital investment and attention, biomedicine is far from reaching the level it should be, and we can't be too rigid about the immediate when we engage in biomedicine. Professor Li Hongwei said again.

After all, for a country, researching the latest generation of warplanes, missiles, or aerospace technology will certainly require more money and attention than the research on a certain disease, and there is no way to change it.

"If all the money and investment spent on research into how to kill humans were used for biomedical research and agriculture, the average human life expectancy would now be more than 100 years." Hearing this, Zhao Heng also said half-jokingly.

This may not be a joke, but the truth is that this is the most impossible thing for human beings to do, even though it is the ultimate ideal.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to see this goal in my lifetime, but there may be some hope in your generation." Li Hongwei smiled very kindly and said.

Zhao Heng and Professor Li Hongwei chatted for a while, and left the office, Zhao Heng didn't have anything special today, after going to the school's academic affairs office to deal with some academic and curriculum matters, Zhao Heng rarely had this leisure, so he wandered around the campus of Yenching University.

To tell the truth, Yenching University used to be the university that Zhao Heng wanted to go to the most, and Zhao Heng's college entrance examination results were also very good, but because of the problem of the territory of the college entrance examination, Zhao Heng failed to go to Yenching University.

I didn't expect to be able to study at Yenching University now, which can be regarded as an alternative dream, after all, it is the highest level of university in China, and it is the ultimate dream of all students!

So, how hard is it to get into Yenching University? That's probably it. If you are a high school student, you are in a car, traveling around a provincial town, passing by countless high schools in the fourth and fifth tier towns, you have to have the confidence to say [people in this school can pull out one at random, I dare to say that my grades are definitely better than him, and the indicators in all aspects are definitely higher than any student in this school] because many schools have not been able to produce a student who can go to a top5 university for more than ten years.

Passing by the provincial capital and the city and provincial key points of first- and second-tier cities, you have to have the confidence to say [pull out a random person from the rocket class, Hongzhi class, Qingbei class, zero class, small class and competition class, you can at least tie with them] Zhao Heng's high school English teacher once told him that the English vocabulary of the top student in the province of science in this province is 12,000, what level is 12,002?

The English major requires 10,000 words for level 8. So, there are too many geniuses in this world when it comes to learning.

But in the end, there are very few places on the pyramid. Of course, when it's not difficult, you can be an actor, you can even know HowNet, and then you can be a doctor.

At the hardest time, you have been promoted by the university of your dreams, but you have been dropped because of your poor family background.

Thinking of this, Zhao Heng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although he is still a young man in terms of age, in terms of achievements and social status, he is definitely on par with the top few people of the previous generation.

In those years when there was no system, he also experienced the hardships of contemporary young people. How hard is it for young people today?

Not to mention success, just surviving is already doing your best. In fact, materially speaking, the current is the best period in thousands of years of history, but why do young people feel so miserable now?

Modern society is tending to form a system, in which you and I must take the initiative to become tool people and accept control in order to be accepted by the group society, otherwise we will not be understood, and then be isolated.

How can you not feel pain when the system forces you to have to give up certain parts of your humanity? However, according to MKS, work should be happy, and the essence of work is to meet one's own needs through a series of processes such as perceiving, experiencing, analyzing, thinking about solutions, and transforming the surrounding environment in real time.

For example, if you write a little poem and share it with your friends and receive praise, are you happy? You've repaired an appliance with your own hands to make it look like new, have you ever felt the urge to share in the excitement?

Therefore, working and creating value should be the extension of human nature and the basic needs of people. But in reality, workers often feel like animals or robots – as evidenced by the growing popularity of self-deprecating memes such as mules and horsemen and tool men.

When do you feel like a person? When not working. Why are some migrant workers reluctant to sleep even though they are extremely tired?

Swipe your phone and lie down in a daze. Even if such an act is meaningless, it is enough to make him fall in love, why?

Because it is only during the time when he is not working that he can take back control of his body and feel like a person.

We say that this state of human nature being suppressed and thus distorted into inhuman and something else is called alienation.

In modern society, people can often feel the pain of alienation, but they don't know how alienation happens, because people participate in it voluntarily and do not see the subject who is pressuring them.

Among migrant workers, this phenomenon is even more significant. To put it simply, as a part-time worker, the interests of you and the boss are in conflict, if you want income growth and job stability, you must pursue irreplaceability, but the boss pursues to reduce the complexity of manual work and reduce the cost of employment.

To sum it up, you say that you are very capable, you are amazing, then the boss will definitely be able to find you someone with a lower cost.

Therefore, everything eventually becomes a tool between people to pk the workload and who has the lower cost, isn't this involution?

There was once a popular article called "The Delivery Rider Trapped in the Algorithm" - the ultimate goal of the algorithm is to squeeze the rider's physical strength to the limit and reduce the cost to the limit.

The most widespread algorithm, and this logic, will eventually reduce the wages of workers to the point where they can only maintain the reproduction of labor.

In other words, the money you earn at work is only enough for you to recover your strength and continue to work the next day. It's like a battery, it's charged to be discharged until it ages, then it's discarded and replaced.

If you work today so that you can continue to work tomorrow, what is the point of your part-time job? The reason why people are human lies in their needs, in addition to the instinct to survive, there are also emotional needs and value realization.

But many bosses don't care about this, they just want to battery people.
