After visiting his laboratory, Xiao Ran's next days were almost occupied by signing bills and making payments.

Whenever he signed a contract or made a payment, he always had mixed feelings in his heart, on the one hand, he felt heartache because of the huge cost of building the laboratory, and on the other hand, he enjoyed the strange pleasure of this "loser".

Fortunately, during this time, he finally waited for the bounty of Kratz's conjecture, 500,000 pounds, which should have been exchanged for 4.53 million yuan, but due to the recent fluctuations in the pound exchange rate, the final amount received became 4.35 million.

Looking at the hundreds of thousands that disappeared out of thin air in the account, his heart couldn't help but start to ache faintly again.

However, when he turned his attention to the remaining funds, Xiao Ran's mood finally calmed down a little, and after deducting the 7 million expenses for building the laboratory, he currently had about 7.5 million yuan left.

Although this money is not enough for him to carry out all the plans as he pleases, it is more than enough to open a company and maintain the day-to-day operation of the laboratory.

But it's not enough to build a factory, but there's no hurry, let's take out the organic solar cell technology first.

So his next goal is to set up a team in the laboratory, with his current status and fame in the scientific research community, it is wishful thinking to recruit so-called talents, but anyone who has several years of work experience in the laboratory will not come to his three-no laboratory to find a job.

This also means that the candidates he can recruit can only be selected from among the college students who have not yet graduated, and the graduate students should not even think about it.

Tut! It's a bit of a headache!

I don't know if I can dig up Senior Brother Kong Jiyuan and Senior Brother Liu Wenhai, but I haven't entered the door of Lao Tian yet, so I want to dig the corner of Lao Tian, will this be a little bad?

Forget it, it's not too late to ask the opinions of the two senior brothers before making plans, and they won't be reluctant to come over if they really don't want to.

It's really not good, let the two of them help train the team formed by then, and make do with it.

Of course, it's not in vain, you must give the two senior brothers training fees, feelings are feelings, and people are willing to help doesn't mean that they can pull the two of them to be strong men with peace of mind.

Although he does not need to form a team, he can complete the experiment of developing organic solar cells by himself.

But this is bound to consume a lot of his time and energy, of which a lot of meaningless, repetitive manual work will take up most of his time.

You can't really get a lab running by just one person.

Research requires not a single effort, but teamwork, because it is essentially a complex and multidimensional process, similar to a collective activity like war.

In this process, not only does it need to have a leader, the "commander-in-chief of the three armed forces", to plan the research direction, design the experimental protocol, and analyze the data results, but also team members with a variety of backgrounds and skills to work together.

First, scientific research requires a lot of experimentation and data collection, which is often repetitive, time-consuming, and requires meticulous patience, like the "soldiers as consumables" in war, and there needs to be enough manpower to perform these tasks so that the dominant ones can focus on higher-level problems and decisions.

Secondly, scientific research also needs to have a variety of professional skills to provide support and support, for example, someone may need to be responsible for the maintenance and commissioning of experimental equipment, someone may be responsible for data management and statistical analysis, and someone may be responsible for literature retrieval and data collation.

These roles are like logistical support forces in a war, and while not directly involved in the battle, they are essential to the smooth running of the battle.

In addition, scientific research also needs to have efficient communication and collaboration mechanisms, because each team member may have their own work habits and ways of thinking, so it is necessary to ensure that everyone can work together under a common goal through continuous communication and coordination.

This is like intelligence sharing and personnel scheduling in war, and a unified command system is needed to ensure that all parties can work closely together and work together.

Only through effective teamwork can we give full play to everyone's strengths, improve work efficiency, avoid duplication of work, and ultimately achieve scientific results.

The development of organic solar cell technology is only the first step on his scientific research path, and there are bound to be many more and bigger research projects in the future, so it is very important to form an efficient and collaborative laboratory team.

Since he had decided to test Kong Jiyuan and Liu Wenhai's two senior brothers, Xiao Ran did not waste time, and immediately went to the door.

After completing the research on the composite electrolyte of solid-state lithium batteries, Senior Brother Kong Jiyuan has been significantly more relaxed recently.

As a graduate student, Senior Brother Kong's dormitory is obviously a grade better than the college student dormitory, with a double dormitory and three bedrooms and one living room.

When I found him, the creature was sighing alone in the dormitory.

"What's wrong Senior Brother Kong, why are you so sad?" Xiao Ran walked in and asked him a question, and then saw that the computer in front of him was displaying the settlement screen of the game failure.

"No, it's just a game of how to show this expression."

Senior Brother Kong shook his head and sighed, "It has nothing to do with the game. ”

"That"

"Alas, my girlfriend just blocked my WeChat!"

So that's what happened. Xiao Ran didn't know what to say, so he had to comfort him: "Girl, it's good to coax more when you're angry." ”

Senior Brother Kong said with a bitter face: "But she even blocked my WeChat, and she didn't answer her calls, so I couldn't do anything if I wanted to." ”

After speaking, he looked at Xiao Ran and seemed to remember something, and his eyes lit up: "Senior Brother Xiao, as a veteran of flowers, you must help Senior Brother I!" ”

"How can I help with this?"

Senior Brother Kong came to the spirit: "Help me refer to the reference and see what method can be used to make her happy." ”

"Okay." Left and right is not a big deal, Xiao Ran nodded and asked, "Can you tell me how you made her angry first?" ”

Speaking of this, Senior Brother Kong looked inexplicable, "I don't know where to provoke her, I was playing a game just now, and she suddenly called." ”

Xiao Ran asked, "You didn't answer her phone?" ”

"How can you! Games are important, but girlfriends are also important! ”

The attitude is not bad, Xiao Ran nodded: "What did she say at the time?" ”

"She said: She got a fish bone in her throat just now, and she almost didn't see me!"

"What did you say?"

"I was playing the game at the time.,I'm angry when I mention this.,Horse-ridden.,Just at the beginning of the game, the opposite side of the single hand typed and said,1V1 man battle on the road,No one should call it a jungler.,I definitely agreed.,The result is that the opposite side doesn't talk about martial arts.,Jungler ten minutes came and I went on the road six times.,And my jungler is like a dead man.,Don't look at me.,From beginning to end, I knew that he was a B wild monster.,I'll serve.,The wild area is."

"Ahem, off topic!" Xiao Ran hurriedly interrupted him.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was focusing on the game, and I didn't think much about her words, so I asked her with concern: Are you okay, what are you eating?" As a result, her tone was not very good, and she replied impatiently: What do you say I ate? ””

Xiao Ran's expression suddenly became a little subtle, no, as soon as the people finished speaking, the throat was stuck in the fish bone, you turned your head and asked what people were eating? I'm angry, too!

"You shouldn't have asked!" Xiao Ran said euphemistically.

"I also know, I didn't react at the time!" Senior Brother Kong's expression was a little frustrated: "As soon as she spoke in this tone at that time, I knew that she had said the wrong thing, so I hurriedly asked her: How did you do it?" I asked this because I was concerned about her, wondering how she got stuck in her throat. ”

"And then?" Xiao Ran's expression became more subtle.

Unexpectedly, she became even more angry and said: How can you do it? I poked a fishbone into it myself! ”

"How did you get there?"

"Then be careful yourself."

Xiao Ran:.

No, you have a girlfriend so far??!!

Senior Brother Kong was still crying: "When the game is over, I want to call her again to care about her, but she didn't answer, I asked her on WeChat again, and it turned out that she blocked me!" ”

Alas!

Xiao Ran looked at Senior Brother Kong speechlessly, didn't speak for a long time, and finally could only pat him on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's good to be single!" ”

Senior Brother Kong cried out with a "wow", looked at Xiao Ran with teary eyes and asked, "Senior brother, do you think I still have a chance to save it?" ”

Xiao Ran rubbed his chin, thought about it for a long time, and slowly spoke: "There is a way, but it is a bit expensive. ”

"What's the solution?"

"Take her shopping!"

"Shopping?"

"Yes!" Xiao Ran patted Senior Brother Kong's shoulder and said earnestly: "Remember! For women, there is nothing that cannot be solved by shopping once, and if there is, then go shopping again! ”

Kong Jiyuan looked at his mobile banking balance, was silent for a moment, and said thoughtfully: "Is there a better way to save money?" ”

Xiao Ran nodded: "Yes!" ”

Senior Brother Kong was overjoyed: "What opportunity?" ”

"She's got amnesia!"

Kong Jiyuan: "."

"You're playing with me!" Kong Jiyuan looked at Xiao Ran resentfully, "Then I'll take her shopping!" ”

"Isn't that the end of it!" Xiao Ran shrugged his shoulders and said, "This can be regarded as a lesson for you, every time you talk to your girlfriend in the future, think about your wallet balance first, so that you will be much more cautious when you speak." ”

"Of course, if you're single, you don't have to think about these troubles, look at me? Isn't it a lot more chic? ”

"A lot of your ex-girlfriends are embarrassed to say this!"

"So you said it too, it's an ex-girlfriend!"

Kong Jiyuan:

I was speechless!

After being silent for a long time, Kong Jiyuan wandered between his wallet and his girlfriend for a long time, and finally chose his girlfriend.

No! It should be said that between the big head and the small head, he finally chose the small head!

With a solution, Kong Jiyuan suddenly relaxed, and then he remembered and asked, "By the way, Senior Brother Xiao, why did you suddenly think of coming to my dormitory to find me?" ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Ran also became serious, didn't go around in circles with him, and said straight to the point: "Senior brother, I built my own laboratory, and now I am short of manpower, so I want to ask if you are interested in joining my team?" ”

"What? You built a lab yourself? Kong Jiyuan was stunned when he heard Xiao Ran's words.

"Hmmm! Don't worry, it's easy to say in terms of treatment, I will give you a salary of 12,000 a month, and in terms of papers"

Kong Jiyuan was in awe: "Needless to say, I'll join!" ”

Boy! So happy to agree?

Isn't my salary a bit high?

Xiao Ran fell into deep thought.

In fact, Kong Jiyuan agreed so happily, in addition to money, he is optimistic about Xiao Ran's potential and the future development prospects of the laboratory

He and Xiao Ran have been in the laboratory for more than a month, he knows best what Xiao Ran's strength is, maybe he is still a little immature now, but what the future holds, who can say.

Besides, it's also an opportunity for him.

Kong Jiyuan thought very clearly, even if he continued to stay in Lao Tian's laboratory, how long would it take him to get out of the way?

His current position in the Laotian laboratory is very clear, that is, he is simply a scientific research dog for consumables.

After a scientific research project, the tutor completes the most core part, and the student completes the most tiring part.

In the end, the most valuable first author goes to the tutor, and the dispensable second author goes to the student.

As far as the principle of authorship of academic journals is concerned, unless the journals Nature and Science are tied for first authorship, there are often as many as twenty or thirty people tied for the first author.

Both the second and third authors are of limited value.

Of course, from another point of view, it is difficult for a graduate student research dog to have the opportunity to do experiments and write papers without signing and miscellaneous signing second authors, which is the same as the climbing road of an employee in an old-fashioned store from a buddy to a shopkeeper.

But joining Xiao Ran's laboratory is different, maybe now his laboratory is still poor and white, and there is nothing.

But because of this, graduate research dogs like him have the opportunity to join and become the veteran of the laboratory, and have more opportunities to lead scientific research projects by themselves.

Of course, for others, it is better to join a large laboratory as a consumable than to be a veteran in a small laboratory with limited scientific research funds.

After all, the achievements of a scientific researcher ultimately depend on the quality of the paper, and how does the paper come about? Nature is through experimentation.

There is no paper without experiments, and this is the simplest criterion for judging.

But if you want to experiment, you need to have a project, but if you don't have funds, where will you get a project?

Like those first-class laboratories, people have sufficient funds and many projects, and it is definitely better to be a consumable here than to be a veteran in those small laboratories.

But Kong Jiyuan believes in Xiao Ran and believes that with his strength, his laboratory will definitely have a chance to become a first-class laboratory in the future.

So he's willing to gamble his future.

"What's going on in your lab, tell me?"

Xiao Ran knew that Kong Jiyuan was asking about the laboratory's facilities, funds, and future development plans, so he gave a detailed introduction one by one, and at the same time frankly told Kong Jiyuan about some of the difficulties he was currently facing.

After listening, Kong Jiyuan grinned: "Senior Brother Xiao, please take care of you more in the future!" ”
