Yang Rui also had the experience of borrowing experimental instruments, but instead of lending the instruments out of the laboratory, he went to other people's laboratory to use them.

Generally speaking, if the instruments purchased by teachers in the same school are always done by borrowing them occasionally, if they are purchased uniformly in the school and placed in a certain teacher's laboratory, it will be more comfortable to borrow.

But no matter what, it feels like to ask for help with experimental instruments, and people in the ivory tower are actually the least willing to ask for help.

When Yang Rui was a graduate student, he would be turned away from time to time. Sometimes people were preparing to use instruments, sometimes students were having trouble with keys, sometimes the teacher with keys was working as beasts at home, sometimes the tutor with keys was working as beasts in the office, and sometimes the tutor with keys was working as beasts in the laboratory and didn’t open the door...

No matter what kind of variety it is, when you eat it, you will always feel your lips are hot, your stomach is hot, and sometimes you will feel your chrysanthemums are hot.

Yang Rui didn't know if someone was used to being rejected, but in a few years, he tasted a variety of rejections, but he still had no habit.

At some point, an experiment was at a critical moment, and I was excited and nervous to take the materials to other laboratories, and I was excited and nervous to wait for someone to use the instrument before borrowing it. If I was turned away again, the feeling of discomfort would be really a bit shameful.

But you can’t do anything about it. The school is not awesome enough, the college is not awesome enough, the tutor is not awesome enough, and you are not awesome enough. That’s it.

Sometimes Yang Rui also thought: "When I become a big bull in the future, I will also buy a floor of instruments. I will use whichever I want, and use it whenever I want..."

Unfortunately, experimental instruments are more expensive than houses, and there are so many graduate students who want to be a big shot. Yang Rui did not realize his fantasy after all.

On the contrary, in the 1980s, Yang Rui saw the hope of building his own laboratory.

On the one hand, he has the need to build his own laboratories, and on the other hand, ordinary instruments are relatively cheap now. Of course, in terms of domestic economic conditions, instruments are still not cheap, but they can still be affordable.

The most important thing is that nowadays, the requirement to become a big bull has become lower. You have to have a name in China and do not have to buy the most advanced equipment in the world to write high-end papers. This opportunity is in the early 1980s.

In fact, there are very few researchers who continue to do research in the ten-year catastrophe, and even fewer people can keep up with the progress of foreign research. Everyone is catching up with and learning the latest foreign research. Simply put, researchers in China are copying foreign research.

If you know English, you can copy more high-end ones. If you don’t know English, you can copy two.

It is impossible for you to not copy. The scientific research level in China in the 1960s was already weak. If you let foreign countries lead for more than ten years, you will not copy the latest research from abroad. Doing research is all about repeated research, which is meaningless at all.

Of course, some people don’t care and are willing to do repeated research, which is called “self-reliance and fill the gap in the country”. This kind of person who has achieved great success is considered a special person in a special period.

In contrast, theoretical research is naturally happier than experimental research.

For example, mathematicians need to understand the latest progress abroad. Just buy journals and read them. Even if they can understand them, they can keep up with the research progress. If they do experimental physics or biology, they must repeat the experiments. It is okay to do a few less experiments, but if they don’t just read journals, they will not be able to get the essence.

For Yang Rui, who already has a source of economic resources, it is not expensive to do experiments that meet the Chinese level, but it is not certain for ordinary researchers.

The middle-aged uncle looked at Yang Rui with a gaze. Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, he said pitifully: "Do you think this is OK? I will move out on Saturday afternoon, Monday night, just before morning, I promise to send it back to you."

Hearing what he said pitifully, Yang Rui was also a little soft-hearted and said, "You can introduce yourself first."

He did not agree first. It was inconvenient to lend out the experimental instrument after all. Moreover, the analysis balance is extremely easy to damage when moving around. Only such a person with low emotional intelligence does not care about the requirements of his acquaintances.

The middle-aged uncle then woke up and laughed: "Look at me, I am from the 807th Institute, I am engaged in organic chemistry, my surname is Wei and my name is Zhenxue."

"What experiment do you want to do?"

Wei Zhenxue hesitated and said: "Solvent extraction of coal."

It seemed that Yang Rui didn't understand, and Wei Zhenxue explained: "It is to study the extraction performance of coal with solvents, and to examine what additives and auxiliary means can change the extraction of coal. Generally, there are ultrasonic waves, electromagnetic radiation and chemical treatment..."

"The solubility of coal." Yang Rui summarized it in one sentence.

“Yes…that’s it.”

"I thought Institute 807 was a chemistry institute, but it seemed it was the Institute of Coal Science?" Ordinary chemistry researchers would not touch coal.

"Nanhu Coal Science Institute." Wei Zhenxue lacked favorability for the unit. He took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, and said, "You know my name, and you know the work unit. You can lend me the analysis balance now, right?"

"You guy..." Yang Rui smiled and pointed at him, then refused with a smile: "No!"

"Why not?"

"I know there are too many people in my name and workplace, why do you have to lend it to you?" Yang Rui asked back. He actually looked down on Coal Chemical. He could understand the mood of domestic hope to engage in coal energy. However, based on his experience in 30 years, coal really lacks the value of vigorous development, especially after the fog in the capital, coal has entered a long-term downturn again, and it is hard to say when it will restart.

Although studying coal chemistry in the 1980s cannot be said to be a waste of time, it is not worth investing heavily.

Wei Zhenxue, who was not good at speaking, was stunned and said, "You asked me several questions, isn't it just to determine if you can lend it to me? I've told you all, where are you not satisfied?"

"There are some." Yang Rui signaled He Cheng to take the analysis balance away, and at the same time stopped Wei Zhenxue who was chasing the analysis balance and said slowly: "The Institute of Coal Science is a wealthy unit. Even if your analysis balance is broken, I don't believe that there is only one analysis balance in your institute, why should I borrow it from me?"

Wei Zhenxue's voice became smaller: "The other analytical balances were occupied."

"So that's it." In fact, without him saying that Yang Rui could guess something. Wei Zhenxue's emotional intelligence is so low, it is not much different from those who have only read Maoxuan for the rest of his life. It is natural to mess up the personnel in the research institute.

In the impression of many people, the university seems to be a white ivory tower. The institute is like a green haven, peaceful like the slow pace of a beautiful girl... Perhaps for students and masters, the university can indeed be called an ivory tower, at least it is a white teeth. But for ordinary faculty and staff who are still chasing fame and fortune, the university is even more an elephant corpse. If you don’t fight for it, you can’t lie on it and eat, drink, or get a beast.

Wei Zhenxue's analysis balance is broken, and no one has the obligation to lend it to him. The research work is very heavy, and inspiration is coming at any time. It is the most wonderful experience to use the laboratory at any time. It is not impossible to lend it to others, but a person like Wei Zhenxue with a weird personality is really not a good "roommate".

Yang Rui is not a person who likes Wei Zhenxue very much. The so-called articles written in core journals and holding Einstein’s Joe is a type of person who is difficult to deal with.

If you want to share the analysis balance with this middle-aged uncle for no reason for the next long time, it will definitely not be a beautiful memory.

Yang Rui's heart, which had just softened, became harder and said, "Analysis balances are not suitable for frequent transfers. It is not a good idea to lend them to you, but it is the same if you even look for the principal."

"How do you know what your principal is thinking?" Wei Zhenxue was also stubborn and simply followed them.

Cao Baoming stroked his arm and asked, "What should I do?"

"Let him follow him, and you'll leave in a while." Yang Rui and others moved their things first on the tricycle, then took the bus back to Xixian, and then returned to Xibao Town from Xixian.

It was such a long way, but Wei Zhenxue didn't even walk away.

When Yang Rui arrived at school, it was not easy to drive him into the laboratory, so he let him go to the laboratory.

The slightly dim large tiled house was originally used to make warehouses. When Wei Zhenxue saw it outside, he expressed his contempt and said without any concealment: "It's a pity to leave such a good analysis balance to you."

"What do you mean to give it to us? We bought it." He Cheng was short but his voice was high, and the rebuttal sound seemed to lift the tiles off.

Wei Zhenxue shrank his neck and walked into it quickly with Yang Rui, saying, "It's the same thing I bought...ah..."

"It feels different inside and outside the room." Yang Rui stood in front of the laboratory bench and said with a smile.

Wei Zhenxue nodded in confusion.

There are four incandescent lamps in the room that illuminate the inside.

The top of the experiment bench is gray and white, the surface is terrazzo, and it looks flat and shiny. There are sinks made of the same material and the rare tap water pipes, which can't help but show a unique temperament.

The entire laboratory was arranged according to Yang Rui's requirements. As the analysis balance was placed on a special instrument table, the laboratory of Xibao Middle School also became more high-end.

Wei Zhenxue was a little surprised and said honestly: "It's pretty good."

"People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. The room is decorated. Okay, if you want to find the principal, go to the dormitory area. We are going to start preparing for the experiment." Yang Rui said one sentence and wanted to send him out.

Wei Zhenxue suddenly became enlightened and said, "I'll prepare for you."

As he said that, he took the initiative to come to the instrument table to help debug and analyze the balance.

Yang Ruile needs someone to help, and it is very troublesome to rectify a laboratory, especially at the beginning, when the students don’t know how to use anything, they have to do it themselves.

Wei Zhenxue can not only help with work, but also teach other students how to do it, which immediately relieves Yang Rui's pressure.

Moreover, he had a surprisingly persistence for two days.

"Is it really impossible to survive without being crazy?" Yang Rui expressed his admiration for Wei Zhenxue's perseverance, but he still started his own experiment with his own eyes.

He wants to revise the determination method of Coenzyme q10, or more accurately, revise the absorption coefficient of Coenzyme q10.

Until 30 years later, the content of Coenzyme q10 was often determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry, and the basis of this method was the absorption coefficient of Coenzyme q10.

In simple terms, it is how much light a coenzyme q10 will absorb.

As we all know, in terms of color, black absorbs the strongest light and white absorbs the weakest light. However, the degree of light absorption of a substance often needs to be calculated through a series of experiments.

Generally speaking, an authoritative organization or person has measured the absorbance, and others can just use it. Every time they test, it will be exhausting.

In the drug standards of various provinces and cities used in the 1980s, the absorption coefficient of coenzyme q10 was copied from foreign books in the 1950s. Yang Rui knew clearly that this part of the content was outdated.

When he was looking for information in later generations, he encountered documents from the 1980s and saw explanations about the content of coenzyme q10, he would consciously put a question mark. If he wanted to use this data, he had to do a new experiment to determine it himself.

So Yang Rui knew clearly that the absorption coefficient of q10 currently used in China is relatively low.

The reason why this experiment was chosen as a breakthrough is because the absorption coefficient is a definite value and is a direct feedback from nature, and it will not change due to authority or bureaucracy.

Yang Rui found that it was correct, and no one could refute it by writing a paper based on it. For a high school student, this kind of article that is neither too difficult nor a little important is really suitable.

He Cheng and others all helped, but only Wei Zhenxue taught the students to use instruments while watching Yang Rui's skillful operation, and he looked quite happy.
