Yang Rui was not in a hurry to open the laboratory.

In his plan, this is also a very important laboratory.

It is true that Huarui Laboratory is wholly owned by his laboratory, but if all the experiments are handed over to Huarui Laboratory, Huarui will sooner or later go bankrupt. Not to mention that Yang Rui can't afford to play, if they can't afford to play the world's richest people in the past, there will always be times when they can't afford to play the game.

Just the human genetic map, which cost hundreds of billions of dollars, is just a preliminary image. If you want to continue playing in depth, there will never be a stop. Just look at the results of Reagan's Star Wars. The huge Soviet Union has been ruined. It is too difficult for me to do basic research.

It’s different to use national resources.

If it is a European and American country, private laboratories are still qualified to obtain national resources. The famous Bell Laboratory and IBM Laboratories that are becoming more and more powerful after the millennium are all real examples.

But in China, especially in the 1980s, only government laboratories can obtain national resources.

Yang Rui devoted all the remaining official funds to this laboratory.

As a school-level laboratory, Yang Rui's independent laboratory originally had only infrastructure funds of more than 100,000 yuan, plus first-year funds of more than 100,000 yuan. Moreover, the former was not given to him directly, while the latter was allocated on schedule.

In fact, what Yang Rui has now received is the 50,000 yuan announced.

This is the result of Professor Cai’s cheap behavior. If it is a normal process, if Yang Rui wants to get the 50,000 yuan, he must first come up with a complete set of experimental plans to explain his expenses in the future, and then he can get the money on time. Of course, before he gets the money, he still has to undergo inspection.

In short, it is not so easy to get money from the government. Many well-known professors refuse to get state funds after their value increases. Because compared with other organizations, government funds are the most old-fashioned.

If you give less, it is better not to take it.

The situation in China is similar, but there are also certain differences. People like Academician Cai have outstanding reputation, don’t receive much money, but they are less managed. The money he gets for Yang Rui can bypass some necessary or unnecessary procedures.

In addition, in terms of domestic reality, 50,000 yuan is really a lot.

But in terms of international reality, 50,000 yuan is really small.

However, scientific research has never been a domestic business. Yang Rui is really too lazy to do it, such as "filling the domestic gap" that is obviously a repetition of existing experiments.

But if you want to fill the international gap, the first phase of 50,000 yuan is too little for a brand new laboratory.

The same is true for the infrastructure costs of more than 100,000 yuan.

Fortunately, Yang Rui has other channels for making money.

First of all, there is US$150,000 from Coca-Cola. This money is inconvenient to enter Yang Rui’s Huarui Laboratory, but there is no problem in entering the independent laboratory of Peking University.

The foreign trade of China Medical also gave Yang Rui a RMB fund. Yang Rui used most of the money before, but there was still nearly 100,000 yuan left.

Professor Cai gave 600,000 yuan in funds on behalf of Peking University, and the remaining one was more than 100,000 yuan.

This money can be combined to improve Yang Rui's laboratory by more than one level.

Although it is still not as good as Tang Jiji's laboratory, Yang Rui has other ways, he is to concentrate funds to buy large equipment.

The full amino acid analysis system from GE Company attracted countless people to watch on the first day after being sent to campus.

Assistant Professor Tan in Professor Tang's laboratory stared at the engineer installing the system and reading the instructions, saliva flowed down: "The cation exchange chromatography column uses the gradient of pH and temperature to elute, ninhydrin derived color rendering... It's so good, so good."

The engineer flying from Singapore was installing, and Professor Tan was touching him.

Xu Zhengping also had excitement in his eyes, but he also asked worriedly: "I have bought this set of instruments for all the money, can the rest be configured?"

Yang Rui asked back: "What else do you need to configure?"

"Centrifuge, spectrophotometer, chromatometer, microscope, I also want to find electrochemical instruments, such as acidometer, ionmeter, conductivity meter..." Xu Zhengping counted with his fingers.

Yang Rui laughed: "We only have so much money, how can we afford so many instruments?"

"Did you use all your money to buy this?" Xu Zhengping asked his most worried question.

The complete set of amino acid analyzers occupies the appearance of two sets of experimental tables, and you can tell that it is very expensive by looking at the appearance. Of course, it is actually very expensive.

Yang Rui nodded and said, "It's almost the same. You can buy some reagents for the remaining money, and then use it with a refrigerator or something."

Xu Zhengping suddenly had a bad premonition: "How did you get Professor Cai's license for such an expensive instrument?"

Even if the funds are allocated to a certain laboratory, the money is not something that you want to buy. There are also seals to be built.

Yang Rui was no exception, but he shrugged very easily and said, "I told Professor Cai that this is China's first full set of amino acid analyzers, so he agreed. In addition, the money I used was mainly Coca-Cola's funding, and the director had no reason to object."

"Is this the first in China?" Just like many Chinese people nowadays, Xu Zhengping is also very sensitive to first place.

Yang Rui nodded and said, "The new product released by GE was bought by the Chinese Academy of Sciences a few years ago, but it was not even a semi-automatic one. At that time, there was little foreign exchange, so the one I bought was outdated, which was more than two generations from this system."

"You have to make a name for yourself by relying on this." Xu Zhengping saw Yang Rui's purpose at a glance.

Yang Rui nodded shyly and asked, "Is it useful?"

"It's useful, of course it's useful. You'll know when you look at them." Xu Zhengping angrily whispered. The researchers who came to the laboratory to visit were afraid that there were dozens of people, so they spoke. The instrument was already full, and half the box of instructions had been dismantled. The people behind him could not get a copy.

However, the laboratory has a variety of reputations, and having the reputation of a certain instrument in China's only one, did not help Xu Zhengping.

Since he is preparing to work in Yang Rui's laboratory, he not only needs such an amino acid analyzer, but also needs more ordinary instruments.

Things like spectrophotometers, centrifuges, and water baths cost from thousands to tens of thousands of yuan, and are equipped in almost every laboratory. The reason is that they are used! The frequency is too high.

Without these instruments, the laboratory's efficiency will be reduced by many times.

Xu Zhengping said angrily: "The laboratory configuration is so deformed, how do you ask me to do the experiment?"

"The instruments in public laboratories are not good?" Yang Rui said with a little teasing.

"Of course not. It takes two hours to line up a centrifuge in a public laboratory." Fire was about to pop up in Xu Zhengping's eyes.

When Yang Rui saw that the teasing was in place, he quickly pressed Xu Zhengping and said with a smile: "Don't be impatient for a while, don't be impatient for a while..."

"Why..." Xu Zhengping's voice rose instantly, and he quickly pressed it down and whispered: "How can I feel at ease? In this way, my experiment speed is two or three times slower than in Lao Tang's laboratory."

"Wait a minute." Yang Rui continued to hold him down, then looked around, and waved his hand after finding the target.

A researcher who was about the same age as Xu Zhengping walked over with a smile.

"Professor Lang, what are you thinking?" Yang Rui asked with a smile.

Professor Lang looked at Xu Zhengping and said, "Just Xu Yong?"

"Professor Xu and his research team use up to four people, four days a week, or one full day, six and a half days."

“It’s a little longer than four days.”

"I'll give you two and a half days a week, or one full day a week, and exchange it for an ordinary laboratory for a brand new amino acid analyzer. You won't suffer any losses if you exchange it for four to one. This is the only one in the country. After this village, there will be no such store." Yang Rui bargained skillfully.

Xu Zhengping calmed down when he heard this. He was so familiar with this scene.

In today's laboratories, unless they are top-notch, there are always some instruments you want to use, but you don't buy them or can't afford them.

In addition, some very useful instruments are needed in a certain project, and most of the non-rich researchers can only find ways to borrow or exchange them.

Borrowing is naturally awkward and troublesome thing. After negotiations on conditions and communication instruments are often simpler.

Two laboratories, one bought a gas chromatograph and the other bought a liquid chromatograph. Of course, they bought them according to their most commonly used needs, but those who use gas phase often occasionally encounter liquid phase demand; those who use liquid phase occasionally encounter gas phase demand. Could it be that they need to buy another set?

Of course, it is better to have time communication with each other - the rich are free.

The main differences between AC instruments and borrowed instruments are one of the same instruments and the other is to negotiate in advance.

The meaning of instrument equality is that I have a gas phase, you have a liquid phase, and we complement each other. At some point, the two laboratories can even negotiate in advance and purchase instruments separately. But if a laboratory only has mass instruments such as centrifuges, it is impossible for the AC instrument to happen. One party can only borrow the other party and use his own time and skin to exchange the instrument.

It is also very important to negotiate in advance. Sometimes, this is even more important than instrumental equality.

Because most research instruments are delicate, some need to be turned on in advance, some cannot be stopped in the middle, some need to be debugged every day, and some need to be shut down. In short, if the time to use the instrument cannot be negotiated in advance, temporary borrowing will always cause all kinds of troubles, not only your own, but also cause troubles to the other party, which will make the borrowing behavior full of various eyes.

Compared with borrowing, exchange or exchange instruments are relatively normal behaviors and are definitely not as useful as those in their own laboratory. However, in the 1980s, some replacements are good. Academicians cannot guarantee self-sufficiency. At most, they will be sent to other laboratories to be discredited.

Xu Zhengping didn't have to go to other laboratories. He just needed to ask his experimental dog to take things to Professor Lang's laboratory for treatment.

So, seeing that Yang Rui had agreed to the laboratory exchange, he immediately became quiet.

"There is no electrochemical thing in Lao Lang's laboratory." Xu Zhengping is still concerned about the real issue.

Yang Rui chuckled and said, "It's okay, we can just use three days of amino acid analyzer a week."

"You can change it for four more days!" Xu Zhengping's double-tenth skill critical hit in elementary school, and his face was so sad.

"I made a list and change whichever you want." Yang Rui handed over a piece of letter paper to Xu Zhengping, which was filled with the name of the laboratory and the main instruments of the laboratory.

Yang Rui got the cheap and was still obedient: "There is no way, it's only $150,000 in total. If you want to buy anything, it means you can't buy anything."

It is more than enough to decorate an ordinary laboratory for $150,000, but what Yang Rui wants is not an ordinary laboratory.

Xu Zhengping looked down at the letter paper, unable to agree or disagree. For him, 150,000 US dollars is already too much to think about. In fact, most professors in China cannot get $150,000 in funding, let alone associate professors in independent laboratories. 150,000 RMB is difficult.

Buying the only instrument in the country and then communicating with other laboratories is almost indicative of reference value for Xu Zhengping.
