Chapter 1273 One Act Opera
The researcher sitting next to Neeson couldn't help but take notes and said, "I heard that Chinese researchers have only a few dollars a week."
"Is it so low? A few dollars is not enough to eat. Are China's prices so low?" The researchers next to them were extremely curious. For them, even if China is not mysterious, everyone knows much.
However, there are always people who know some so-called cold knowledge, and they say with certainty: "I have read related reports that their food prices are only one percent of ours, but their salary is indeed very low."
Food prices in Sweden are notoriously expensive. French and Americans will also think that restaurants are expensive when they come to Sweden.
Therefore, the Swedes present had no feelings about the low prices of food in other countries. Some people even said: "I didn't expect that a few dollars in weekly salary could give birth to such valuable ideas."
"I want to tell him the value of his research results in a while, and then look at his expression." Neeson's serious cheeks all year round could not help but smile a little.
A stone stirred up a thousand waves, and as Neeson said, everyone around him thought about it.
"We may be able to leave him in Astra."
"Even if you can't stay in Astra, it's great to stay in Sweden."
"Our assistant researcher's salary is higher than what he gets in his lifetime."
"What about research funds? How did Yang Rui's research funds solve it?"
"They have special channels for expenditure. However, this matter cannot be too impulsive. We have to find a suitable opportunity to talk to him so as not to get into trouble for him." Someone thought of some situations in the Soviet Union and quietly reminded him.
"Yes, we should do that," Nissen said.
During the discussion, several Swedes did not look at the others, nor looked at each other, but stared at the podium, talking in their mouths, as if talking to themselves, but in fact they all participated.
And their mood is far more exciting than on the surface. From the perspective of researchers, it is normal to say something real during the lecture. Before Watson did the double helix, he became interested in listening to other people's lectures. Many scholars' research results were also inspired by their peers.
However, from the perspective of Astra people, Yang Rui, who earns only a few dollars a week, can't help but feel guilty about saying such important things.
However, Yang Rui became more and more excited when he talked on stage.
As he said, the dynamic mass retesting method is just a gadget he studied in his spare time, or rather, it is just a little thing he took out of his mind in his spare time.
This is a very interesting theory and useful practice. It is just that it is difficult to study it based on Yang Rui and the current conditions in China.
The first problem is that the dynamic mass retesting method is a project with funding and time consumption comparable to ion channels. Just a basic equipment for detecting various luminous fluxes is equivalent to rebuilding an ion channel laboratory. In fact, by the 1986-year standard, the cost is even higher. Some equipment that has not yet been developed may have to be customized with manufacturers. Although this is a common thing in scientific research, the cost must be taken into account.
According to a rough calculation, if this research is conducted in Europe, the first phase of the funding will be more than US$30 million, and in the future, it will have to spend 10 to 20 million US dollars a year before it will have the opportunity to make it.
If the goal is to produce results within one or two years, the total expenditure of 50 million US dollars is definitely not enough. I dare not say that it can definitely be achieved if the consumption of 70 to 80 million US dollars is consumed.
As for profit, if the patent applied for is clever enough, it can be considered profitable for a company like Astra. If you don’t have to rush to return the return cycle, it should not be difficult to earn two or three times the principal before the patent expires. However, for Huarui or other small companies, it would be good to sell a profit of 30% or 50%.
Only companies like Astra have enough active substances to test. If you replace them with small biotech companies, build their own laboratories or open them to other companies, you can only make some hard money.
Therefore, even if Yang Rui opens his gold finger to reduce profits and speed up the price, the investment of 20 million US dollars and the profit of 30 to 50 million is the limit state.
However, for Yang Rui today, it is really not worth it to put so much money on a small project.
With so much money, if it is used as an ion channel or a G-protein coupled receptor, Yang Rui will naturally sell it. However, just doing a dynamic mass retest method is too boring from Yang Rui's perspective.
To compare sports, it is like someone who can become a football superstar through hard training and has a high chance of becoming a champion in the trampoline event. Then, spending time or energy on the trampoline is naturally a cost-effective choice.
Of course, this does not mean that trampoline projects are meaningless. For athletes who do not have the opportunity to become strong competitors in popular events, participating in unpopular events is also a good choice, or, if you really love them, you don’t have to think too much about it.
In Yang Rui's view, the Astra researchers in front of him are such a group of players suitable for unpopular sports.
They were not at the forefront of scientific research, and Astra has abundant funds and resources. From a broader perspective, Yang Rui is also willing to dynamic quality retesting methods, which can appear a few years earlier.
The research on G protein-coupled receptors was advanced by Yang Rui at least ten years, so corresponding application-related research is needed.
On the other hand, if several new drugs can be produced by reducing the cost of funds and time, countless people will benefit from it.
What Yang Rui has done is just the work of sorting out information, so why not do it?
Standing on the podium, Yang Rui was full of enthusiasm and noble sentiment from socialism, which was not selfish and specialized in benefiting others.
He really has no idea of making a profit.
The capital to win the Nobel Prize cannot be counted.
You can’t just say that some people care about reputation, they do good deeds for fame.
Yang Rui released the dynamic mass retest method, most of the reasons are really to make it easier for everyone to make new drugs.
If a person has birth, old age, sickness and death, if there is more medicine in the world, he will have more opportunities. If he does not have the appropriate resources to study such a technology, he or she does not have positive ideas, so he or she will not be able to release it.
In fact, many scientists have this mentality.
Why do people rush to attend international conferences that great scientists attend? It is because people often say "south-provoking" words, so-called listening to your words is better than reading for ten years.
A great scientist thought of it, but he would tell it to others what he was unwilling to do, and he would do what he was willing to do.
This is a scientific practice that has been formed over the years.
A broader comparison, the relationship between theoretical physicists and experimental physicists can be regarded as this type.
For example, one afternoon, the theoretical physicist ate too much grapes and suddenly thought, "Oh, do you think the universe will expand?" Experimental physicists combined the observations of twenty or thirty years to come up with an answer. The universe is redshift. Very well, both of them won the prize at the same time.
So there is a reason why theoretical physicists look down on experimental physicists. You are short children who grew up eating my grape skin. So what if you marry Penny?
Of course, sometimes, experimental physicists are also miserable. For example, one afternoon, Chandrasekar ate braised pork and ate it to a full extent. He calculated the highest quality of the white dwarf, and obtained a Chandrasekar limit. He then read it in an enthusiastic manner at the meeting, but was torn apart on the spot. Experimental physicists also laughed at it. It was not until thirty years later that Chandrasekar's limit was proven. In another twenty years, Chandrasekar won the Nobel Prize and did not digest the braised pork that year at the age of 73, and he was also very worried.
These two stories also tell scientists that to be respected by others, don’t find something amazing when you are twenty-four or five years old, and rush up to read it without thinking.
If you want to be that kind of person who says something casually, there will be a group of people who come to help you prove it. You must first be a person who can say valuable things.
A powerful scientist is like throwing a chewed bone to fight for a topic that he can't do or his laboratory.
You won't lose anything, and others can get benefits.
Sometimes, powerful scientists will accidentally pull out the shredded meat that they didn't swallow the day before yesterday when attending a meeting, and snatch it away with a quick response. There is nothing we can do about it.
To scientists, it is not disgusting to pick people's teeth and wisdom. Everyone is studying things that are even more disgusting than this.
A hearty lecture took two full hours, and there was not even a single rest in the middle.
Seeing the Astra staff reminding the time later, Yang Rui slowed down his speech, closed the lecture notes and said: "Today's content is not very specific. There are other questions that have not been mentioned yet. We will have a lecture tomorrow. Everyone is welcome to come again."
When she said this, Yang Rui was also a little uneasy. If there were too few people tomorrow, it would be embarrassing.
The things in the world are not about taking out good things, and everyone will recognize them. If that is the case, the scientific research community will be relaxed.
Yang Rui looked down, and the Swedes below also looked at Yang Rui.
Yang Rui didn't say anything anymore, he finished speaking.
The Swedes had no intention of standing up and speaking, and their collectivism was undoubtedly revealed at this time.
Yang Rui was a little disappointed, and it was a very exciting project anyway.
With hesitation, Yang Rui walked off the podium. If the dynamic mass retesting method does not work, he had to consider turning quickly. The longer he stayed in Sweden, the more obvious his attitude would be, and he had to have enough reputation to continue to stay.
In one step or two, Yang Rui was about to walk out the door, and applause suddenly rang out.
There were also several Swedes who clapped their hands and walked up to them, as if expressing their grand meaning.
