"Li Zheng, I thank you on behalf of the country! The production line has already arrived at the port in China, and the part from Tianjin Port was shipped to the National Research Institute last night." From the other end of the phone came Meng Lao's hearty laugh.
"Meng Lao, you are very kind. Compared with the scientists who have been striving to contribute to the biological sciences of the motherland, I am not worth mentioning."
"Hey, you are being too modest. Everyone has their own way to serve the country. Without you, we old men would have to rely on old objects to explore for a long time! If you have time, go back to the motherland to see that the development of the motherland is good now. what!"
Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face, "Meng Lao, I have never left China."
Meng Lao on the other end of the phone obviously paused, and then a burst of laughter came from the other end of the phone, "Yes, yes, I made a mistake. I made a mistake!"
After talking on the phone with Lao Meng, Li Zheng stretched. The resumes on the table in front of him had been reduced by more than half, and more than a dozen people to be inspected came one after another yesterday afternoon.
Because of his young and tender face, Li Zheng had to reluctantly give up several candidates who were talented and arrogant, and only three people actually entered the shortlist in the end.
Zhang Chao, 32 years old, has a very good experimental operation, but he is lazy and has no strong sense of professionalism. This kind of person needs a leader who can point out the direction and make up his mind. The comments Li Zheng gave him are very good auxiliary talents, but it will take a few years of practice to be on his own.
Qiu Hua, 36 years old, returned overseas student at Princeton. He used to be an associate professor in the Department of Biology at Princeton, and then returned to China for family reasons. He is now a technical consultant for a cosmeceutical brand under the name of an internationally renowned cosmetics group.
The last one, Li Zheng pursed his lips. He never thought that he would see this person on his resume.
Liu Sichao, a well-known figure in the biopharmaceutical circle of later generations, is a top scholar who can sit on the rostrum every international biological conference in Asia.
It's just that some of his behaviors when he was young were really criticized, and he even got the title of "academic hooligan" in the circle of the older generation of biologists.
Academic hooligan, Liu Sichao has never done anything to steal other people's research results. It's just that he has a quirk, he likes to engage in academic competitions, and he still engages in academic competitions unilaterally.
The publication of a scientific research result has to go through multiple stages, and in order to seek follow-up financial support, many laboratories often choose to publish a paper after completing one stage. And Liu Sichao likes this kind of scientific research project that people started, but has not yet produced real practical results.
As soon as the results of the first-stage research of others came out, he directly set up a project based on the results of others and conducted follow-up research. What is annoying is that in this one-sided academic competition, Liu Sizhao wins eight out of ten times.
In fact, the publication of a paper is equivalent to the default knowledge sharing. Liu Sichao's behavior is disgusting, but it can only be condemned morally. After all, after the release of the stage paper, everyone is on the same starting line, and whoever comes out early in the final result is better than the level.
However, having said that, if this kind of thing falls on you, who will be happy? The final result is preempted by others, which means that all the previous efforts are in vain, which is almost a devastating blow to some small private laboratories.
The current Liu Sichao is only thirty-seven years old, and it is when he is the most insane when he engages in academic competitions. Li Zheng rubbed his temples, unless he had to, he really didn't want to provoke this evil star.
Li Zheng sorted out the details of the three people and held them with clips. His eyes swept across the two thin sheets of paper on the other side of the table, and his brows could not help wrinkling.
Wenxuefeng and Ma Wenmin, these two clearly submitted their resumes, but they never showed up, and Zheng Lingling's phone calls were also unanswered.
"Has Zhong Peng come out yet?" Li Zheng turned to ask Zheng Lingling.
Zheng Lingling was concentrating on reading, and she pursed her lips when she heard the words, "Like you, you can't get out of the laboratory after entering the laboratory. Mr. Zhong hasn't come out since he entered the laboratory yesterday afternoon, and he didn't even take a bite of his meal."
Li Zheng was dumbfounded, he stood up, "I'll go see him."
In Laboratory No. 3, Zhong Peng stared closely at the reaction of the reagents in the conical flask, his eyes were a little congested because he had not slept for a long time. There was a mess on the table, a coat was randomly spread on the ground, and there was a temporary pillow made of foam next to it. I guess this is the equipment he had when he rested yesterday.
Li Zheng knocked on the transparent glass at the entrance of the laboratory.
Zhong Peng did not respond.
Li Zheng frowned slightly and increased his percussion force.
This time, Zhong Peng finally heard it. It happened to be the critical moment of the experiment. When he was suddenly interrupted, Zhong Peng was extremely annoyed. "Li Zheng, it's you."
After formally signing the labor contract, Li Zheng asked Zhong Peng to call him by his name. Even with the combined age of his two lifetimes, the title of Mr. is still worthy of him. But in the future, the time for everyone to get along will not be one or two days. It is better to stifle unnecessary conflicts in the cradle.
"Mr. Zhong, your health is important. This experiment is not a matter of one or two days. I think you should eat something first." Li Zheng said with a smile.
Zhong Peng touched his stomach when he heard the words, and his stomach made a "gugu" sound in coordination. He couldn't help showing an embarrassed look on his face, "Okay, I'll come out right away."
The horse of an experimental dog who is addicted to experiments needs to be discounted. Half an hour later, Zhong Peng hurried out of the laboratory.
The two drank some white porridge left by their aunt in the morning to fill their stomachs.
"Mr. Zhong, do you know Wenxuefeng and Ma Wenmin?"
Zhong Peng took a sip of boiled water, "Li Zheng, you can just call me by my name. I feel guilty when my boss calls Mr. Zhong. Wen Xuefeng... I have met once, a young man with a lot of ideas. Ma Wenmin..." He thought for a moment, "The one with Wenxuefeng, I have the impression that this person doesn't like talking very much."
"What, you want to invite them to Qingyuan?"
Li Zheng shrugged, "Qingyuan is not that easy to get into, I just heard the teacher mentioned the two of them, and I'm a little interested." He paused, then looked at Zhong Peng with a smile, "I wonder if Mr. Zhong is interested in accompany him. shall I go?"
Zhong Peng naturally agreed.
Dongchen University is located in the east of Xiangjiang, which is the intersection of the urban area and the suburbs.
What Li Zheng is most satisfied with is the subway line that extends in all directions, from the west to the east of Xiangjiang, but within half an hour, Li Zheng and Zhong Peng are standing at the door of Dongchen University.
Although it can't be compared with a university with a profound history like Heung Kong University, in terms of this aspect alone, Dongchen University is no worse than those famous universities in later generations.
Li Zheng and Zhong Peng walked into the door and went straight to the address provided by Xu Mingsheng.
"I'll look for Wenxue Peak." Li Zheng said to the aunt downstairs in the teacher's dormitory.
Auntie speaks authentic Cantonese in Hong Kong. She raised her head and looked at Li Zheng and Zhong Peng carefully. "Wen Wenfeng? Who are you? He was expelled from school and plagiarized his thesis."
"Plagiarism?" Li Zheng's brows furrowed, "When did it happen?" he asked.
"It's been two years. I'm also surprised. Teacher Wen seems to be getting along better and has a good relationship with the students. I didn't expect to do such a thing. I really know people and faces but not hearts."
Li Zheng and Zhong Peng looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled bitterly, while silently removing these two names from the candidate list.
The two who had nothing to gain had to go back. When they were about to walk out of the gate of Dongchen University, someone suddenly stopped them.
"Mr. Li Zheng?"
Li Zheng turned around in surprise, he didn't remember anyone he knew at Dongchen University.
A woman who looked like a woman in her forties trotted over, "You... hello, is this Mr. Li Zheng?" The woman's voice was still a little out of breath.
"I am." Li Zheng said with a frown.
When the woman heard the words, an uncontrollable excited expression appeared on her face. She took two deep breaths, straightened her body slowly, and said, "Hello, Mr. Li Zheng, I'm Ma Wenmin. My husband and I once gave Qingyuan a gift. Send your resume!"
Li Zheng glanced at the woman quickly. She has neat short hair and an old padded jacket that looks a little bloated. Her facial features are very delicate, and her eyes have fine lines. What surprised Li Zheng was that the two almost opposite temperaments of gentleness and sharpness actually coexisted harmoniously in this woman.
"Hello, Ms. Ma." Li Zheng smiled politely and didn't answer.
Ma Wenmin stared at Li Zheng's eyes tightly, and seeing that he had no intention of continuing any further, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
"I don't know, do we have this opportunity to become a member of Qingyuan?" Li Zheng didn't mention it, she took the initiative to mention it.
Li Zheng's eyes narrowed, before he could answer.
A young man in his early thirties trotted over.
"Mr. Ma, Professor Dong agreed. He said he would find time to visit Mr. Wen." The young man ran to Ma Wenmin and said softly.
The man looked at Ma Wenmin with a guilty conscience and guilt in his eyes.
"Mr. Ma, if you need any help, just say it. Professor Dong said that if Teacher Wen needs a liver transplant, he will greet the hospital and give the liver source to Teacher Wen first."
