Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 376 The disharmonious Nobel laureates

The small meeting within the Institute of Biomedical Sciences is over. Every researcher and associate researcher who participated is very much looking forward to the project and the results. Everyone is thinking about related issues, as if they have been injected with infinite vitality. .

For example, Dai Tianqing.

After walking out of the conference hall door, I talked to Zhao Yi for a few words, and then pulled Chen Zhigang, who was in the same group, into the office for discussion.

Han Hui also called Ai Lixin to join him, but Ai Lixin looked a little reluctant and looked at Li Ming with resentful eyes, as if blaming Li Ming for taking his place.

Li Ming looked at Zhao Yi and Zhang Wei.

Zhao Yidao said, "Brother Li, Sister Zhang Wei, you can just talk. I have little experience, so you can discuss the planning and decisions for the experiment."

"I have classes in the afternoon, and I have to prepare a report for a few days."

"Well, come on!" Zhang Wei said with a smile on her face. She was already used to Zhao Yi's approach.

Li Ming was a little confused. He was the oldest and most experienced among them, but Zhao Yi had done several projects at a young age, including a major project on AIDS. He discovered the effect of 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecules. Yes, why are you not sad about drug research and development?

He took Zhao Yi and Zhang Wei to the office next to him, and reminded him in a low voice, "Zhao Yi, Brother Li still wants to talk to you about the meeting just now, do you know? There is something that is tacitly acknowledged. The director didn’t mention it, and we didn’t ask.”

"What's the matter?" Zhao Yi asked.

Zhang Wei whispered, "You mean, drug patents?"

"right!"

Li Ming nodded with his mouth tightened, "Look at Lao Dai, including that old lady Han, everyone is so active, money is almost coming out of their eyes, do you understand?"

"Our institute's work contract has clear rules. National projects do not have patents, but patents obtained through cooperation with outside companies are jointly owned by the institute and the laboratory, with the institute accounting for 70 to 90 percent."

"Seventy to ninety percent, actually, it's 70%. Everyone tacitly understands that our institute is a scientific research institution, not a company, and we don't need to make profits, right?"

"It doesn't matter if the institute divides it into 70% or 90%. Anyway, the money will go to the finance department in the end. That means the institute has more free funds, so it must be 70%."

"The laboratory accounts for 30%."

Li Mingdao said, "I worked on a collaborative biochemistry project and had a patent on solution proportions. I divided 30% of it, 10% for the laboratory, and the remaining 20%, 80% for myself, and 1% for the remaining people." Cheng Er." He patted his chest to express his magnanimity, "I will definitely not treat my own people badly."

Zhang Wei immediately looked at Li Ming and asked, "How much is the patent fee for that year?"

"Last year it was... ahem, more than 600." Li Ming said a number with a bit of embarrassment, and immediately shook his head and said, "It doesn't depend on how much money you have in the end. Even if you have a penny, you can earn more, right?"

"Yeah, yeah."

Zhao Yi expressed trust with his eyes.

Li Ming continued to tell Zhao Yi, "This cooperative research and development is amazing. There are no AIDS drugs in China until now. Moreover, you know the molecular effects better than I do. There are too many patent fees involved."

"I can't say how much exactly, but we must strive for it! If we can really make it, we will allocate it internally. Director Yan will definitely make the final decision, but the higher the research contribution, the higher the allocation ratio will definitely be..."

"Now that we are divided into three groups, it is competition! Our group has to work hard and produce results first. As long as we see hope, when the time comes, everyone will follow the direction chosen by our group to do research and development, and we will have the right to speak. , are you right?" After Li Ming finished speaking, he also looked at Zhang Wei.

Zhang Wei asked, "Are there any differences between the people in that group?" She deserves to be among the three of them.

Li Ming smiled and said, "Our team must look at Zhao Yi! As you all know my personality, I am straightforward. It is impossible for me to do this drug research and development project. So we still have to look at Zhao Yi." He Looking at Zhang Wei a little embarrassed, "Of course, Zhang Wei, you are also very important."

Zhang Wei shook her head and smiled.

Zhao Yidao said, "I understand, Brother Li. Once the project is completed, we will get the patent fee, right? And it's not a small amount."

"Right, that is it."

"Um."

Zhao Yi continued to nod and said, "Then let's work hard." He lowered his head and looked at the time and said, "Are you doing research? It won't be a matter of a day or two. I'm going to have lunch first, and I'll have classes soon. You and Zhang Let’s study it together with Wei, and if you have any plans, just follow them, I will always pay attention to the progress.”

"That's it, let's all work hard!" He said and walked out of the office.

Li Ming felt confused and asked Zhang Wei uncertainly, "Did he just say something sarcastic?"

Zhang Wei has long been used to it. She explained, "Professor Li, Zhao Yi has always been like this, don't worry about it. Our projects are all done like this. He only comes to experiments occasionally and rarely participates in experimental design. However, I feel Well, what he is best at is the analysis of experimental data and results."

She thought for a moment and used two words, "sensitive and accurate."

"We are responsible for designing experiments, and he is responsible for studying the data and results of the experiments. Moreover, sometimes, his intuition is really very sensitive."

"Do you remember? In the meeting just now, he said to be optimistic about the direction you are talking about. Director Dai asked him why. He answered with two words, saying it was 'intuition'."

"He said it was intuition, so we just believed him, then designed the experiment normally and waited to see the results."

Zhang Wei explained carefully, with absolute trust in Zhao Yi in her tone.

In Li Ming's ears, it can even be described as 'worship'. He felt that Zhang Wei was a bit of a 'fanatic believer', but seeing her acting like she was explaining the facts, he felt a little confused for a moment.

In the end, he just muttered blankly, "Is that so? Is that so..."

Outside the institute, they don’t know about the 2CV-bihydrogen molecule, nor about the simultaneous development of drugs. The focus of the university is only one, which is the upcoming academic report on the demonstration of the ‘supersymmetry problem’.

Zhao Yi placed an 'advertisement' on the news, which was just one of the publicity channels to make up for the lack of influence of the platform for publishing papers.

The main purpose of the report is to let top mathematicians and physicists know that the School of Science has specially sent invitation letters to major academic institutions and universities around the world, and has also allocated quotas for participation and opened free application channels.

Among all invitations, invitations from institutions and universities account for half, while the rest are left to those who apply freely or are specially invited.

This time the invitation was grand.

If it were an ordinary research result, I would be embarrassed to send invitation letters to the world's top academic institutions. Zhao Yi's academic report was different. Influential institutions and universities in theoretical physics were invited, including Newton. Research Institute, International Center for Theoretical Physics, European Organization for Nuclear Organization, Princeton Institute for Advanced Study, National Academy of Sciences, etc., some internationally renowned universities have also been invited, but the number of places allocated by the university is not many, because some top mathematicians, Physicists are all recruited through free application, or simply stating their name is enough.

The treatment of top mathematicians and physicists is naturally different. Because they have sufficient qualifications to participate and have a certain degree of personal influence, they will naturally not be subject to quota restrictions.

For example, some freelance applicants simply have a master's or doctoral degree. If they don't have any tangible results, they will definitely need to be reviewed.

Because of the difficulty of reporting.

Zhao Yi's argument on the 'supersymmetry problem' is very difficult. His level and knowledge are not sufficient, and he cannot understand it at all. There is no point in occupying a quota.

Yanhua University arranged for the report to be held in the largest conference room in the graduate building, but it could only accommodate 300 to 400 people at most. After the report was announced in the academic circle, the number of free applications was as high as 2,000.

The school spends a lot of energy just screening participants.

The main thing is to ensure that there are no problems.

Some ordinary applicants are better off, because the number of people who can participate is limited, so they will be rejected. If a certain Fields or Nobel Prize winner in physics insists on applying freely through official channels, he will be rejected. If you exclude it directly, it won't sound very good if it is spread out.

"Mr. XXX, a Nobel physicist, applied to attend Zhao Yi's lecture at Yanhua University, but was turned away..."

"Mr. XX, the Fields winner, freely applied to attend the report, but was ruthlessly rejected..."

In short, a lot of effort was indeed put into screening free participants.

Near the beginning of the report meeting, the atmosphere in the school is indeed different. The experience of ordinary students is that there are more foreigners in the school, restricted areas are set up in some places, and heavily armed police can often be seen on the road. Security felt a bit tense.

There are also more media reporters.

When walking on the paths of the school, you can often see scholars whom you don’t know, being interviewed by reporters. Some are domestic scholars, and some are foreign scholars.

What’s interesting is that some students are lucky enough to be interviewed by reporters, usually doing research and asking a few small questions, “Do you know Zhao Yi?”

"Can you make an evaluation of Zhao Yi? Just tell me how you feel."

"Do you know what major achievements Zhao Yi has accomplished in the fields of mathematics and physics? Please tell me in detail."

"Do you know about supersymmetry?"

"..."

Most of the survey questions were related to Zhao Yi and his achievements.

Some media not only interviewed students from Yanhua University, but also surveyed the scholars who came here and asked questions about Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi seems to have become a ‘super star’.

soon.

Academic lectures will come.

On that day, the area within the university directly leading to the graduate student building was blocked. Only guests holding invitation letters, school staff and permitted reporters could enter.

Many people simply stood in the outer area. From a distance, it looked like a celebrity meeting, but the people who came were not as enthusiastic as fans.

In the large conference room, many people came early, some even an hour in advance, and some simply waited inside early in order to have academic exchanges or get to know the big guys.

Eight o'clock.

The reporters set up their cameras and began filming interviews.

By this time most of the people had arrived.

There were many big names in mathematics and physics sitting in the front row, including five Nobel Prize winners and three Fields winners. Some reporters also began to introduce the situation.

"We can see the lecture hall, where there are many internationally renowned scholars."

"There are five Nobel Prize winners in physics in the front row, namely Yang Zhenning, Sheldon Glashow, David Politzer, George Smoot and Masukawa Toshihide..."

The reporters made introductions and then went over one by one for interviews.

Several other Nobel Prize winners were very enthusiastic and commented on Zhao Yi respectively. Only Sheldon Glashow had a cold expression and just said casually, "Zhao Yi is a genius in mathematics and physics..."

He did not continue to comment, but there was disdain on his lips.

The reporter could only walk away in embarrassment.

The arrangement of visitors in the university is also related to the international academic reputation. Winners of the Nobel Prize in Physics and Fields must sit in the front row, while Sheldon Glashow sits in the front row. The position in the first row is the same as Yang Zhenning and Edward Witten.

The three of them are in the middle of the first row. Other Nobel Prize winners in physics, Fields winners, or other well-known scholars are scattered on both sides or in the second row.

Yang Zhenning is a Chinese physicist and has been working in China. His status is definitely different.

Edward Witten and Zhao Yi have academic research cooperation, and the 'supersymmetry problem' demonstration is also inseparable from the academic cooperation between the two. He and Zhao Yi are good friends. In addition, he is also one of the most influential mathematicians in the world. 1. The revolutionary leaders of string theory must be treated differently.

Sheldon Glashow can sit in the best position in the middle with Yang Zhenning and Edward Witten, which is enough to show his international academic status.

His main research areas are electroweak theory, GIM mechanism and grand unified theory. He won the Nobel Prize in Physics for promoting the electroweak theory. When he won the Nobel Physicist, he was only in his early forties and is now in his second year. For more than ten years, he has been engaged in theoretical physics research and plays a pivotal role in the European Organization for Nuclear Organization.

Many top scholars in the world have weird personalities, probably because geniuses are always different from ordinary people. Sheldon Glashow's personality is very extreme, and his attitude towards academics is very clear——

As long as it is a theory he approves of, he will absolutely support it.

For example, grand unified theory.

As long as a theory he doesn't approve of, it will be directly defined as 'false', 'lie', or even 'academic fraud'.

String theory, that is.

Sheldon Glashow even left Harvard University in anger because Harvard University accepted string theory, and criticized Harvard University for accepting "liar theory".

So when Edward Witten and Sheldon Glashow were arranged to sit together, the atmosphere was a little too awkward. The two didn't even give a polite nod, and occasionally turned their heads to look at each other with disdain.

Edward Witten glanced at Sheldon Glashow again and felt something was wrong. He said to Yang Zhenning, "Mr. Yang, can you change places with me?"

"good."

Yang Zhenning stood up tremblingly, suppressing a smile and changed places with Edward Witten.

Sheldon Glashow noticed what Edward Witten was doing, turned his head and looked at the young George Smoot next to him, and asked, "Change positions?"

George Smoot didn't even look at him. He shook his head decisively and said, "I refuse."

Sheldon Glashow's eyes widened.

George Smoot's expression remained motionless, "I played a guest role in a TV series the year before last, and you said on the Internet that I acted like a clown. I went to argue, and you blocked me. I still remember .”

"..."

Sheldon Glashow glared awkwardly and awkwardly, turned away from George Smoot, and asked Toshihide Masukawa, who was looking to one side, "Can you change positions?"

"ah?"

Masukawa Minying stood up and nodded, "Of course, Mr. Glashow, please sit over here."

"Thanks!"

Sheldon Glashow stood up and said thank you very forcefully, but his tone was a little fierce, and he still said it to George Smoot.

Masukawa Minying agreed to change seats, but in exchange for a "thank you" from the other party, he felt a little dissatisfied, but he could only sit over awkwardly.

This time George Smoot turned his head and said to Masukawa Toshiying very seriously, "He won't thank you if you agree to change positions. You are from RB, and he is racist and feels that you Of course I would agree.”

Sheldon Glashow said loudly and emphatically, "Smoot, I'm sitting next to you, I can hear you!"

"I know."

George Smoot replied and continued to say to Masukawa Toshiying, "See? That's who he is."

Masukawa Minying didn't know how to react.

Sheldon Glashow could only curse, "Asshole!"
