"Professor Cai, Yang Rui is indeed talented, and there is no doubt that this is true, but universities should also have the stubbornness of universities. I think that promoting Yang Rui to assistant professor or lecturer is not only not conducive to the school's teaching and management, but also not good for Yang Rui's growth." Lu Yueping is a senior professor in the Department of Biology and does not care about opposing Professor Cai.

"Indeed, it will cause too many problems to mention students who have not graduated from sophomore year as a teaching assistant or lecturer in one go. In two years, Yang Rui did get a lot of results, but two years is too short. It is better to wait for two years and give Yang Rui a place to stay in school in advance?" Liu Lan, who is also a senior professor, is also a relatively conservative group.

Another relatively young professor Zhou Fan was taking the opportunity to object: "I also feel a little rash. We don't need teachers in a particularly urgent way now. It would be a problem to raise Yang Rui at once. For example, Yang Rui's research level is very good, but his teaching level is not very clear. I think it is better to observe for a while.

Professor Cai remained silent and let everyone in the conference room speak freely.

Letting Yang Rui teach at Peking University was not the best choice for Professor Cai. This was a solution that was forced out by Tsinghua University. Professor Cai was really worried that after Yang Rui graduated, he would go to Tsinghua University to teach. There are really many such things in the history of Peking University. For example, Zhu Ziqing is a student of Peking University and went to Tsinghua University after graduation. Without mentioning the whole story of the period, such things are always inevitable.

Under normal circumstances, Professor Cai doesn’t care whether the two schools are in communication. Anyway, the relationship between Tsinghua and Peking University has always been close, so it is normal for you to go back and forth. From the psychology of a professor of natural sciences, it doesn’t matter if Zhu Ziqing and Niu Ziqing run a ton of them.

But if a young man who was nominated for the Nobel Prize at the age of 20 and published a double paper on CELL and nature would be a great sin.

Even the Nobel Prize nominations that go through the motions are amazing. In short, if you want to get the Nobel Prize nomination, even if it is a Nobel Prize in the natural sciences, you will first be well-known in the industry. Either your name is known to many people, or your work is understood by many people. In short, you are a celebrity in the scientific community, so that there are people or institutions! Your reputation guarantees will give you a nomination.

Yang Rui's nomination is even more rare. It is the end of 1984. PCR technology has broken through the national scope with an unstoppable attitude and began to spread in major laboratories around the world. Such things are no longer just the concept of face scanning. It is really possible to win the Nobel Prize. Every biological laboratory needs to use something. If you don't even have the qualification to compete for the Nobel Prize, this award will not survive so long. Of course, this year may be a little early, and the 20-year-old Yang Rui is also a little younger, but in another five or ten years, can Yang Rui win the Nobel Prize? It is really possible.

Such achievements made Professor Cai unwilling to bear the possibility of losing Yang Rui at all.

From the perspective of the dean, Yang Rui can only be said to be cheap insurance.

Professor Cai is not worried at all that others say he is "reckless". In a few years, people will only comment on him as "decisive".

However, the opinions of colleagues should also be taken seriously. The so-called ********** means to be democratic first and then concentrate.

Moreover, democracy can last longer, and concentration time is very short. In terms of proportion, it is more important to show that democracy is more important.

Professor Cai waited quietly for about a quarter of an hour. After everyone expressed their opinions, he asked: "I don't want to force Yang Rui to be an assistant or lecturer. The problem now is that the conditions given by Tsinghua University are better. Moreover, Yang Rui wrote a book called "Genomics" during his lecture at Tsinghua University. He wrote very well. Have you read it here?"

Several people nodded.

"I have a few copies here, so you can take a look later." Professor Cai asked someone to take out the mimeographed book and said, "I didn't expect Yang Rui to write a book, and it was during his teaching at Tsinghua University. With this experience, I think Yang Rui must have hoped to continue teaching and writing books. I believe everyone has the same or similar experiences."

Some professors nodded slightly, bowing their heads without the same or similar experiences. Research institutes in the 1980s did not mandate professors to have monographs. Therefore, a small number of people did not have such experiences. However, this is not a good thing, just like students studying for a doctorate have never written papers. When meetings are held, how can you be ashamed to look up?

Monographs are not necessarily more difficult than papers, but they are different things. In a narrow sense, monographs are the author's sorting out his own research work. Having written it means writing it, and having never written it means not writing it, and what has been written is despising what has not been written, and there is no reason to say.

Your paper is famous both at home and abroad, you are amazing; you have many students all over the world, and you are all members of the Standing Committee, you are amazing; you are waiting for a certificate and praised in life, you are amazing - you have never written a monograph, haha, you are really a good scholar with a weak mind and strong will.

Zhou Fan, a relatively young professor, turned pale when he saw a thick mimeographed book.

He returned from studying abroad. Although he was young, he was still very easy to be named a professor. However, the disadvantage of youth is that he has less time to work. He has not been included in his consideration of such a large project.

However, looking at the thick "Genomics" that looked like a textbook, Zhou Fan suddenly felt that he was not confident.

Yang Rui is much younger than him.

After silently turning over more than a dozen pages of "Genomics", Zhou Fan really wanted to give himself a big mouth: they were all bad habits learned from abroad, and they were speechless! They would just pour out whatever they thought of... I shouldn't express my opinion!

"I don't object to let Yang Rui continue to maintain his student status, but what are you thinking about not allowing Yang Rui to be poached by Tsinghua University?" Professor Cai spoke again, leaving the opponent speechless.

"How about we improve our salary? Let Yang Rui wait a moment. After another two years, he will stay in school to teach and directly follow the treatment of graduate students." Lu Yueping put forward a relatively reasonable suggestion.

However, it was only relatively reasonable, and no one answered Lu Yueping's words.

"Yang Rui's current results should be all right to promote an associate professor in an extraordinary way." Liu Lan said a fair word, but no one still responded.

Everyone here felt embarrassed inexplicably.

Domestic professional title assessment is actually easy to understand. Undergraduate graduates enter university and are evaluated as assistant professors after one year of internship, and can be evaluated as lecturers after three years; master graduates enter university and are evaluated as lecturers after one year of internship, and can be evaluated as associate professors after five years of internship. PhD graduates enter university and are evaluated as associate professors after one year of internship, and can be evaluated as professors after five or seven years of internship. Those who are less than this time limit are all exceptionally promoted.

It can be seen very simply that the waiting period from the assistant professor to the associate professor is basically the time required to study for a postgraduate or doctoral degree, because it is not necessarily possible to be evaluated. Such a system has slightly increased the value of further studies.

If Yang Rui graduated from undergraduate studies and entered university, he should have been awarded an assistant professor. If he was promoted to a lecturer, it would be considered an exception. Liu Lan said that he was an associate professor, so he would be a doctoral student.

In China, this situation is usually rare except for the mathematics department, but it is not without it. Especially scholars who have written a large number of papers are easily promoted.

However, can an associate professor at Peking University be considered an exception for Yang Rui?

This is a very embarrassing thing. After all, he himself is the director of the Ion Channel Laboratory of Peking University, and he has an associate professor like Xu Zhengping. It seems that it is unpleasant to not give him the title of associate professor.

"It's really difficult." Lu Yueping smiled self-deprecatingly, putting herself in her shoes for Professor Cai, it's really difficult for him as a dean.

"Call Xu Zhengping here to ask. He knows a lot about Yang Rui." Wang Yong thought about it.

"This is a good solution." Several people who couldn't think of a solution immediately agreed.

Not long after, Xu Zhengping was called to the smoke-filled conference room.

President Liu picked up the main part and explained it to him, and asked: "Old Xu, you are the one who graduated from Peking University and stayed at the school. We want to keep Yang Rui, but you can see what is the solution."

"I suddenly told me that I hadn't considered it." Xu Zhengping said helplessly. Due to the expectant eyes of everyone, he picked up whatever he wanted: "I know that Yang Rui's "Genomics" is being published. Norton Publishing House in the United States will probably give him an English version and sell it in the United States first."

"Will Yang Rui's "Genomics" be sold to the United States?" Liu Lan was shocked. This tone was very high.

Zhengping nodded: "Norton Publishing House should attach great importance to it. It has sent someone to discuss cooperation in the canteen at noon today."

"Our Peking University canteen?" President Liu was trembling like a tractor that was started. It was not easy to publish a book in China, but it was even more difficult for domestic scholars to publish a book abroad. In fact, it was even more difficult.

Xu Zhengping said "yes" and said, "It's about one noon."

"I'll go and have an hour left." Dean Liu immediately stood up and recommended himself.

"Go together." Professor Cai saw that the room was ready to move, so he simply announced the end of the meeting.
Chapter completed!
