The domestic celebrations are no weaker than those in Sweden.

The Swedes held a grand dinner, and the domestic banquet was larger; the Swedes played their own symphony for each Nobel Prize winner, and several domestic orchestras almost broke the heads to name the Nobel Prize winner; the Swedish king reserved 5 minutes of chat time for each Nobel Prize winner, and Yang Rui got an afternoon of playing time.

As Yang Rui expected, the theme of the conversation was to select a new project for Yang Rui.

The international reputation brought by the Nobel Prize has undoubtedly portrayed Yang Rui as a benchmark figure in the Chinese scientific community.

Speaking of which, this is also a very sad story.

The world's major developed countries win the Nobel Prize every year, but third world countries always need geniuses or rare opportunities to win the Nobel Prize.

In order to artificially synthesize bovine insulin, China formed a huge scientific research team and conducted public relations that would not fall behind. It is said that even Premier Zhou came forward, but he still couldn't get it.

As for the older generation of scholars such as Yuan Longping, due to the domestic conditions, they always focus on academic research. Although they are very prestigious in China, they cannot be a national business card.

And a country needs a business card.

The Postal Ministry even began to consider whether to issue a new set of stamps for Yang Rui.

The only thing that is worrying is Yang Rui's subsequent research work.

Unlike the Nobel Prize winner who is a "lifelong achievement" type, although Yang Rui has accumulated a long time, in terms of time, it only takes a few years.

Such a short time is not enough to make investors feel at ease, whether it is a private investor or an "institutional" investor.

Compared with "famous scientists", it is even more unacceptable to losses in the country's business card.

For example, the former "national scientist" Hwang Woo-seok, the beautiful Japanese scientist Haruko Kobayashi, and the Soviet Union's Li Senko have brought more than just shame.

Yang Rui's youth naturally brought corresponding worries.

From a safety perspective, it is a good thing to let Yang Rui participate in the human genome project.

If it was the management era of the Academy of Sciences, Yang Rui might be really sent to participate in the Human Genome Project.

It’s not that there is anything wrong with the human genome project. Yang Rui has always expressed support for the plan. However, participating in the plan and hosting the plan are two concepts.

The Human Genome Project is a truly international scientific research project. It is easy for Yang Rui to make his mark in this project, and he has done it, but if you want to host the project, it often depends on how much money you bring.

Dalbeco had traveled to Japan for funding. The British Sanger, who relied on the two Nobel Prizes and the full support of the British government, just drew a river and became a prince of the human genome. If Yang Rui just brought someone to participate in the program, at most he would divide a laboratory project in the entire route. Not to mention the key role it played, he could have one thousandth of the workload, which would be considered as giving face to Dalbeco.

Yang Rui worked hard to win the Nobel Prize, not to do advanced experimental dogs.

Making "Clone Sheep" first is a plan that Yang Rui has carefully considered.

This is a very important project that has not only important scientific significance, but also important social, political and economic significance.

His scale and academic value are naturally not comparable to the human genome project, but his influence is no less than that of him.

There are not many people who have never heard of cloning Dolly the Sheep, and even fewer cloned. The resulting film and television works are enough to let the stupidest idiots know these two words. As for whether they understand correctly, that is another matter.

The first major project after winning the Nobel Prize is like the first shot to be fired, and it should be neat and neat.

The 1987-year-old human genome project is still in fundraising and preliminary preparation. According to history, it will not be officially launched until 1990.

Yang Rui didn't want to fall into the endless quagmire, buried in his head for 20 years, and then when he was 40 years old, he was praised for his craftsmanship.

Have you really used biologists as cell assembly workers?

"The cloning project is the most suitable project for the Chinese scientific community. Huarui and Ion Channel Laboratory have both formed a cloning group and conducted a Haidian Genetic Engineering Laboratory for Bovine Embryo Transplantation. All the projects they have done can be regarded as pre-projects for cloning sheep..." Yang Rui sat in front of Qiao Gong, with a soothing tone and a steady posture.

"So, the cloning project is the big project you proposed in Sweden?" Academician Zhu sat next to him, considered Qiao Gong's academic translator.

Yang Rui nodded and said, "To do cloning, 'embryo transfer' must be conquered and can be regarded as a pre-project that must be completed, because cloning sheep itself is to transplant the embryo that has replaced the nucleus into the body of another. We have the team with the highest success rate of embryo transfer in the world. This is not something that fell from the sky, but was obtained by practicing, researching and investing huge amounts of money. This advantage is about two years longer than the world's top laboratories. It is also a few areas with absolute advantages in our country, and it is very suitable for further development."

The success rate of cloning sheep is very low, the lowest part is the replacement of the cell nucleus, and no one wants to lose the embryos that have finally passed the screening during the transplantation.

It can be said that in the past few years, Yang Rui has not only not been separated by world-class genetic engineering laboratories, but has instead been brought closer.

In terms of the success rate of embryo transfer alone, the Haidian District Genetic Engineering Laboratory under Yang Rui is still far ahead of the curve.

"However, cloning will inevitably bring about related ethical issues." Academician Zhu continued to ask questions, so that Gong Qiao could fully understand the situation.

Yang Rui said: "Biology involves biology and humans themselves, and it originally involved many ethical issues. It is a double-edged sword, but we cannot give up on food because of choking. The technology development of animal cloning has been accumulated for half a century. Tong Dizhou, an early biologist in my country, was one of the developers in this direction. Moreover, cloning of low-level creatures has long appeared, but it has not caused too many topics."

After pausing, Yang Rui said again: "It is actually the time to get a shot. If I don't do this project, a few years later, Americans, British or Japanese will do it. In fact, as far as I know, there are at least three laboratories in the United States that are studying cloning, and the slowest progress is no more than 10 years away from mammals. Could it be that in ten years, we have to rely on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to condemn them?"

Academician Zhu and Gong Qiao couldn't help laughing.

"The benefits of cloning can bring are much more than the ethical problems it brings. In my opinion, the ethical problems of cloning are problems we have to face sooner or later, so fighting for its benefits is the value."

"Oh, let's talk." Qiao Gongdao.

"The first is medical use. Cloning mammals is not simply cloning an animal. It represents the overall development of cloning technology. In medicine, if you want to clone a cell or organ clone, you must first complete the cloning of an animal. Unless an important medical branch is cut off, the value of cloning in medical care will become higher and higher."

Yang Rui looked at Academician Zhu, then looked at Gong Qiao, and said: "The second is the value in agriculture, the popularity of good-bred plants and good-bred livestock, at the current speed, is too low. The technology of embryo transfer can only solve primary problems, and the cost is still very high, and it cannot be compared with cloning technology at all."

"Yeah." Gong Qiao understood it and nodded slightly.

Solving the problem of eating has always been a big problem for the Chinese.

"The third one is that cloning is one of the ultimate means to solve species extinction. Species extinction is one of the greatest fears of contemporary humans. We don't want to stay alone on the earth. However, the cost of protecting animals and plants is very high, and it is not completely under our control. However, if we master cloning technology, we will have an additional response method. Especially for animals and plants with very small populations, the significance of cloning is immeasurable..." Yang Rui briefly described cloning technology from childhood to adulthood, and breathed a sigh of exhaustion.

Before Mr. Qiao could speak, Academician Zhu coughed and said, "Yang Rui, you have to think about it. Once you start research, you will suffer from cold words. If you do it, you may be condemned by public opinion. Einstein is still criticized for the atomic bomb."

"Of course, I know." Yang Rui was naturally clear. However, this was also what he cared the most.

When Wilmot finished cloning the sheep, he was indeed slandered a lot, so that when he went to bed at night, he would be harassed by people, walked on the road, and even followed and threatened by people. The institute was even attacked by various environmental organizations in a different way.

But, will these problems be problems in China?

Extreme environmental protection organizations attack biology research institutes in China? Isn’t that equivalent to giving away a head?

It is even more nonsense to follow up threats. Those who can find a way will lose all their losses within three days, and it is considered happiness to be able to surrender themselves.

As for phone harassment? They have to make a call first.

After the initial hot spots, cloning sheep brought a lot of praise.

Whether cloning can be implemented is one thing, but completing cloning is an amazing achievement. Even the stupidest person will gradually distinguish these two things.

Compared to the pressure the British were under, Yang Rui was obviously much more relaxed.

"What kind of support do you need?" Qiao Gong spoke slowly.

Yang Rui hurriedly said: "Keep confidential, add personnel, a lot of funds and the cooperation of some units."

"No problem." Mr. Qiao made the decision without asking the specific numbers.

Academician Zhu couldn't help but envy him. He could not forget the feeling of holding the Shangfang Sword and asking for resources.
