Great Power

Chapter 249

"——"

Facing the two pairs of puzzled eyes, Zheng Jianguo gave up the idea of ​​continuing to circle around. After organizing the vocabulary in his mind, he said: "The cost of the laboratory does not need to be considered by us, so Esther said the time Factors are a problem. However, if you do that, compare with the uncertain results you get. I feel that it takes time for us to cultivate by ourselves to minimize the pollution and interference of other fungi and unreliable factors, so that our results can be Will be more accurate and objective—"

"Interference and sample contamination caused by differences in the flora of different patients!"

Catherine's cold complexion finally changed a little. The Helicobacter pylori provided by the digestion center was biopsied from the patient. However, even with the current relatively primitive testing methods, the process time did not take up to 3 days. Most of the above results are available within 1 or 2 days after the test.

And the laboratory that I am in, needless to say that it will run for at least a few years, and in such a long span, to compare the Helicobacter pylori detected in different patients, just imagine it. This result is extremely uncertain!

"His observation is really as sharp as the rumors!"

A pair of azure blue eyes swept across Zheng Jianguo’s face, and Catherine nodded and said: “You’re right! Using the Helicobacter pylori provided by the digestive center for a long time will cause changes in the flora of different patients. Differences cause uncertainty in research results, which is a big problem for long-term research!"

"Yes, since we want to do our best, we have to use the strictest standards to demand ourselves."

Seeing that Catherine had lost her previous arrogant appearance, Zheng Jianguo was relieved in his heart. The second set of plans originally prepared in the burden can also be kept, waiting for the next opportunity to take it out: "Wait until the design is completed. One hundred repetitive tests—"

"so many?"

Esther blurted out subconsciously. Of course, she knew that the purpose of repeated experiments was to verify the accuracy of the design and research results. It was the basic process for verifying the rationality of the design. Of course, she would understand the benefits of doing so in the next moment: To compare samples from the center?"

"Then you can fill in the data into the paper!"

What is the significance of research?If applied according to utilitarianism, the purpose of research is to publish articles, which will bring reputation, status and benefits to researchers. It is also the ultimate goal pursued by all researchers, and Catherine and Esther in front of Zheng Jianguo are naturally the same. One of the people.

However, Esther was a little curious: "Can you publish a paper?"

"Verified the difference of Helicobacter pylori on different biopsy tissues. Of course, this can be counted as a paper. In addition, you have designed the cultivation standards for Helicobacter pylori. The novelty and purpose of this article can help other colleagues to learn. I feel It can almost be sent to The Lancet?"

Zheng Jianguo pretended to be indifferent and said that he published only one paper in the four major medical journals this year, and it was signed by Tao Ye at the beginning of the Gregorian calendar year. Looking at it, it is now in April. It has been so long. There are a lot of papers reviewed, but they don’t have their own. The editors of these journals must have muttered in their hearts: "Of course, this paper needs three of us to be the first author--"

"Oh, you're the boss, you have the final say~"

Catherine moved her expression again and said that Esther was still lost in her senses: "Are you willing to be tied for number one with us?"

"Catherine has called my boss, I can't let you run without letting you eat grass, right?"

Zheng Jianguo does not reject anyone who can stand alongside him. In fact, he would be happier if they were replaced by Chinese.

However, considering that the following research cannot be completed in China, then this will build up his own relationship circle as quickly as possible. Just imagine the situation where friends are all Nobel Prize winners. Zheng Jianguo is afraid that he can sleep well. Woke up: "Of course, this is because I can only come one and a half days a week, and also considering your MD and PhD joint training qualifications. For other disciplinary matters, I don’t need to remind you. ?"

"Thank you!"

Rarely, Catherine gave a smile. Although it was a flash, Zheng Jianguo's heartbeat accelerated. He somewhat understood why this person was always stern: "You look good when you smile—"

"Catherine just smiles so beautifully, she looks like this normally~"

Esther and Catherine got along for many days, of course, knowing why she was so stern, she looked like a stranger when she saw people: "Is this progress going on?"

"To hurry up, there is also the cultivation and observation of Helicobacter pylori in an acidic environment, as well as its entire gene sequencing—"

Of course, Zheng Jianguo knows what the next research will be. He gave up these two hotspots before preparing for the medical graduation exam. Who would have thought that no one has published relevant research articles yet, so it is natural to catch up with the progress now: "Just right. The two of you are responsible for one, and then we three will sign together."

"Nothing about the director?"

Emotions appeared on Catherine's cold face again, and Zheng Jianguo tilted his head and smiled: "Then it depends on her performance after coming back."

"Oh, Catherine, Esther, this is the coffee I brought you. I bought it just on the way."

As Zheng Jianguo's voice fell, the two doors of the closed laboratory were pushed open, and a young man with curly hair appeared in a loose white coat, with some freckles on his high nose and deep eyes, holding two in his hands. A paper bag. At this moment, I looked at the two women before seeing Zheng Jianguo. Then he said with a smile on his face: "Zheng, I know you, I have worshipped you for a long time, and you have become Massachusetts. Associate Professor of Science and Engineering!"

"Well, Dr. Zheng, this is the computer administrator assigned to us by the hospital, Jack Editon, a bachelor of computer science from MIT."

Esther watched Zheng Jianguo's introduction. Jack next to him had already ran up to him. He put out his hands and smiled, "It's nice to meet you."

"You are welcome, please take care of me in the future~"

Feeling the strength coming from the other's hands, Zheng Jianguo felt that this person's enthusiasm was a bit too high, and the thought that had previously appeared in his mind was pressed back by him: "Our research results are very important. Don't back it up. forget."

"You're polite, don't worry about my job, I promise you won't go wrong, oh, this cup of coffee is for you—"

Jack let go and rubbed his hands and looked around, then took out the coffee in the paper bag and put it in front of Zheng Jianguo. The latter also picked up his hand to test the temperature, only to see that the goods brought two more cups of coffee to deliver. To Esther and Catherine, the latter quickly shook his head and said with a cold face: "I don't drink coffee, thank you."

"Oh, it's okay, if you don't drink, I will drink, anyway, it won't be wasted—"

Jack subconsciously solved himself, Zheng Jianguo glanced at him and turned around and entered the office.

It wasn't until 13 o'clock exactly that Zheng Jianguo was accompanied by Catherine and Esther again to see all the members of the laboratory. In the rest of the time, after arranging for them to introduce themselves, he also applauded and talked about today's work. : "Now divide into two groups. One group will use the ready-made Helicobacter pylori in the digestion center for analysis, and the other group will start to design their own Helicobacter pylori cultivation——"

Since work issues had been discussed before, Zheng Jianguo was like the person in charge of the laboratory at this time. He also posted the task as the boss of the researchers. The other people in the laboratory looked at Catherine and Esther and did not speak. They all upheld the silence and waited for him to continue speaking.

Seeing no one objected, Zheng Jianguo originally thought that there would be thorns like Daisy here, or he wanted to give himself off, but he did not expect this group of people to be so obedient: "Every Thursday The afternoon and Friday are all days when I come to work here. If you have any questions, you can directly approach me in the office. If you have any questions at other times, please contact your team leader Catherine or Esther directly—"

On the first day, I went to work in the laboratory office of the Digestion Center. Considering that there is a water dispenser here, Zheng Jianguo only brought a cup and a coffee pot, and a small bottle of ground coffee, not even a periodical.

Of course, this does not mean that Zheng Jianguo can be idle. Soon, with Esther taking the lead, he spent a whole day and a half in signing review and reviewing signatures, from reagent purchase to fixed asset purchase application for electron microscope. After the staffing is in place, various instruments and equipment are added according to the planned needs——

After two days of busy work on Thursday and Friday, Zheng Jianguo was free on Saturday. The data in the physics laboratory was almost not updated. If it weren’t for the two words Hall spin in the ongoing project on the whiteboard, he would still I thought there was no change in the past week.

After squatting in the physics laboratory for a day and a half of leisure time, Zheng Jianguo ran to the rice noodle shop and ate 20% off rice noodles, and found that no people selling antiques and close-ups appeared, so he returned to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. , And touched the ground on the notepad.

Only when the elevator Zheng Jianguo took was opened, the two heavily armed school policemen in front of him blocked the door: "Hello, sir, what are you doing here at MIT?"

"I'm looking for Celia in this biological laboratory. I'm her laboratory partner and Zheng Jianguo, an associate professor in Professor Thomas's Physics Laboratory--"

Seeing that the two policemen were MIT policemen, Zheng Jianguo understood that his behavior aroused the vigilance of others, so he took out his work permit from his pocket and handed it over. One of them signaled the other to retreat aside. After watching him come out, he spoke to the walkie-talkie on his shoulders and said: "The identity of the other party has been confirmed. Associate Professor Zheng Jianguo in Professor Thomas's laboratory is a Chinese teenager who is about to look for Celia in the biology laboratory--"

"He is from the Republic, his certificate number is 198003, and his English name is ZHENGJIANGUO. Today is the day he came to work——"

Following a series of data checks from the police intercom, the policeman who had obtained the work permit returned it to Zheng Jianguo and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm bothering you."

"It's okay, you guys are also completing your work—"

With a haha, Zheng Jianguo couldn't help but think suspiciously in his mind that the school police used to act alone, why this weekend two people on patrol found Celia and said, he listened to her and said, "The day before yesterday, Southern California. There was an attempted bombing at the Polytechnic University. Now the police at the school should have increased their vigilance. Are you afraid that I will run away with money?"

"Then it can only be said that you picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon."

Zheng Jianguo quickly took out the checkbook from his pocket and opened it. He wrote a cash check for 10,000 US dollars on the latest one. Then he tore it off and handed it to her after signing, "I believe your future life will definitely be more than this. Ten thousand dollars, even one hundred thousand dollars—"

Celia stared blankly at the 10,000 yuan check she was holding. She did not expect that Zheng Jianguo trusted her so much that she would hand over the cost of renting the laboratory to her to pay. Originally, she thought that Zheng Jianguo asked her to take it with her to pay the bill. , I saw another check in front of me: "Since the income threshold is $1,000, I decided to give you a salary of $980. Don't you think I'm cheating you?"

"No, you are just avoiding taxes reasonably—"

Celia took the two cheques and looked at it, quickly stuffed it into her pocket, and then looked at the empty laboratory. She smiled and said, "Would you like me to show you around?"

"No, I have been wandering in the laboratory for the past three days, and I don't want to stay any longer."

I looked around and found that the laboratory was fairly tidy, and Zheng Jianguo ignored the musty smell flashing through his nose. MIT’s laboratory was only 6,000 US dollars a month, which shows how much the purchasing power of US dollars is at this time. Terrible: "Do you want me to send you to pay?"

"No, I can go by myself, of course, if you are not at ease--"

Celia tilted her head when she said, Zheng Jianguo turned and waved and left: "That's it. Call me if I have something to do. I will contact you as soon as possible. Of course, if there is an emergency, you also know where I live. ,where do you work--"

Zheng Jianguo has a great tolerance. Faced with an acquaintance who has met less than five times, he can hand over $11,000 to each other. This kind of thing is beyond Celia’s knowledge and understanding. She has been born since the day she was born. Up to now, the most cash handled is still the 6,800 yuan tuition when I reported to the school. Since then, although there are still tuition fees exceeding this figure, the parents in the family personally paid her to the school.

Eleven thousand dollars, which was almost twice the amount Celia had handled at the time, so she looked at Zheng Jianguo's away back, she was very moved, moved to the point that her eyes were hot--

It’s just that Celia didn’t know that Zheng Jianguo’s thoughts were so helpless at the moment: "This is still no one, and she can’t show up as if she’s taking care of her to pay the money. Compared with the money that will continue to be invested later, it is too small to be any smaller. If she runs away with this money-on how to turn from a college student to a fraudster?"

At this moment, Zheng Jianguo still felt that there were too few people who could use it, but he did not dare to disclose too much to those adults. It was like a checkbook in his arms, but he would not easily carry it with him. The reason why he turned around and left after handing the check to the other party was because the heart was separated by the belly.
