A chat at a dinner did not prompt Yang Rui to make a decision.
Cloning Dolly sheep is an achievement of genetic engineering. Although genetic engineering belongs to biology and is a major category of biology, the span of these two regions is very large for biological researchers.
Of course, Yang Rui''s current ion channel and genome project, in theory, has a lot to do with genetic engineering, but it''s only a huge profit. To make a cloned embryo sheep, we need real work.
Yang Rui accompanied his exhausted grandfather back to the hotel, but he was a little sleepy.
The next day, he sent his grandfather to his comrades in arms. When Yang Rui returned to the laboratory, he immediately arranged for the research dogs to search for information.
Whether you do it or not, the first step in understanding a field is always to retrieve information.
A few research dogs have no choice but to put down their work and start searching in the voluminous reference rooms and libraries.
The library of Peking University is still card type. The card records the title, number and brief introduction of the book. The research dogs first search the card according to various initials, and then search the Natural Science Library aimlessly.
At the same time, some people took out the past journals and looked at them one by one.
Doing scientific research is like this. Most of the work is repetitive physical labor, which can be done by any college student. However, the best and fastest ones are always smart people, so that such work, honest, earnest and clumsy children, is still not popular.
Because the library is endless, you always have to think of a way to simplify your work. Sometimes, it''s better to improve the probability of taking chances than step by step.
After all, research is not an isolated job, competitors are everywhere.
That night, Yang Rui saw the competitors.
Dr. Wilmut''s name, no surprise, appears in the data sheet.
In later generations, the name of the father of cloned sheep has long filled the ears of biology students.
But in 1985, Wilmut was still a little-known researcher. The reason why he appeared in the data sheet was that he was the first to breed a calf with frozen embryos, and the time coordinate was 1973.
Yes, as early as 12 years ago, vilmut had already made the embryo transfer technology that China animal husbandry Corporation wanted, and he went further with frozen embryo transfer.
The difference between frozen embryo transfer and embryo transfer is just like the difference between frozen egg IVF and IVF. As early as the 1990s, the technology of test tube baby has been widely used in China. However, the technology of freezing eggs and then making test tube baby is still available in a few hospitals until the 10th decade. It can be seen that the two technologies are different.
Of course, the frozen embryo transfer done by vermuller is the first example, and it is also a laboratory product, which is still a long way from commercialization.
However, as far as his achievements are concerned, they are not weak.
73 Wilmuller graduated from Cambridge University with a Ph.D. in 1927. No wonder he had the opportunity to run a laboratory in the 1980s.
This speed is also very fast in Europe and America.
In Yang Rui''s impression, vermueller also began to have the idea of cloning in the late 1980s.
The reason for this impression is that the prerequisite for mammalian cloning, the fusion of enucleated egg cells with the nuclei of early embryonic cells by means of electric pulses, was created by Willadsen in 1986. Now it must have a rudiment, but it has not yet been published.
Only in this way can vermuller have the basis for cloning.
However, for scientific research, one year is very fast.
Next year, wilmuller may also have the idea of cloning mammals.
In other words, if Yang Rui wants to do cloning, he will compete with wilmuller in scientific research.
It''s not easy.
It''s not that vermueller is so powerful. Yang Rui has a very strong ability to obtain resources now - it''s no joke to nominate for Nobel Prize. Coupled with the profitability of PCR and deferoxane, he can even get sponsorship directly from banks or pharmaceutical consortia. With sponsorship, he naturally has the capital to compete.
However, the gestation period of mammals is certain.
You''ve done the nuclear transfer - that''s the key step in cloning, but whether the mother can give birth to a lamb or some other animal, you''ll have to wait for months.Yang Rui doesn''t know how many times vermueller has tried, but he knows very well that even in the 21st century, cloning is still a very delicate, complex and lucky work, which requires a capable team to work together for a long time.
Can ion channel lab or Huarui lab do it?
Yang Rui really doesn''t know.
Yang Rui''s hesitation did not last for a few days.
When Yang Rui led his grandfather to climb the Great Wall, visited the Ming Tombs, and went to Tiananmen again to see the portrait of Chairman Mao for the second time, his BPR rang.
Now, there are more signal stations in the capital, and Yang Rui''s BPS are finally available.
However, there are few people who have seen BPs, and the people who are queuing up to move forward are paying attention to Yang Rui one after another.
Yang Rui took a look at the number on the machine, but he didn''t know it. After thinking about it, he put it down.
Comrade Yang Shan, with bright eyes and bright ears, waved his hand and said, "I''ll line up myself. Go and help you."
Yang Rui shook his head: "it''s not the phone of the laboratory or the school. It''s the same when you call back."
The procession in the memorial hall is neat and solemn, but it''s crowded after all. Yang Rui doesn''t care if he leaves his grandfather.
Yang Shan was not the kind of polite person. Seeing that Yang Rui didn''t want to and didn''t force him, he continued to line up quietly.
"Leader, do you need to use the phone?" A staff member of the memorial hall quietly came to Yang Rui and startled him.
"You don''t walk soundly?" Yang Rui''s heart beats fast. What''s this place? How many people are scared to death when you walk soundlessly?
The staff of the memorial hall was stunned for a while, then they woke up and said, "I''m afraid to disturb you. I''m sorry."
"Nothing."
"Oh, leader, we have a telephone in our office. You can use it at any time if you need it." Staff pointed to Yang Rui waist machine said.
Yang Rui suddenly said, "I''m not a leader. You''re welcome."
"It doesn''t matter. You can use it if you are not a leader. The people''s phone is for the people."
"You can really talk, but I''m really not a leader." Yang Rui once again apologized and said, "I''m here with my grandfather. When the queue arrives, I''ll go out and make a phone call."
"It doesn''t matter. You can have a rest in our office with your grandfather. After a while, we''ll arrange for you to see the portrait. It won''t waste time."
The other side''s attitude was cordial and sincere, which made it difficult for Yang Rui to refuse.
"Well, thank you." Yang Rui turned to ask for advice and said, "let''s go there?"
"All right." Yang Shan walked out of the line with great strides.
Yang Rui followed the slender staff and enjoyed a privilege.
It has to be said that the privilege is really convenient. Not only did he return the call in someone''s office, but he didn''t pay a dime for the call. Moreover, when he got out of the office, he also joined the team. He not only joined the team, but also had no time limit after jumping in.
People in line, even those who are about to arrive, do not seem to object to such behavior. As an old revolutionary, Comrade Yang Shan has always been strict with himself. However, he seems to have no opinion about jumping in the queue.
After looking at the portrait, Yang Shan was a little tired. The staff who had been following Yang Rui immediately said, "Mr. Yang, why don''t you come to our lounge for a while and I''ll make you a cup of tea. If the old man is sleepy, he will squint for a while. We have blankets and we won''t catch a cold."
Yang Rui suddenly felt the meaning of "it''s difficult to be gracious".
"Well, thank you." Yang Rui helped his grandfather to the rest room of the memorial hall. Two more beautiful waiters appeared, offering tea, snacks, quilts and pillows. The small rest room was simple to decorate, but there were all kinds of things, such as reclining chairs, TV sets and radios.
"Quilts, covers and pillows are all washed and steamed." The service staff couldn''t show their teeth with a smile, so they backed away after the deck chair was laid.
Looking at the door being closed gently, Yang Shan couldn''t help but sigh: "you said that the service in Beijing is different. How considerate. It''s not like the waiters in Nanhu city. Their nose is not their nose and their eyes are not their eyes. "
Yang Rui moved the corner of his mouth. In front of the iron facts, he had nothing to say.
Before long, the phone rang again, and Yang Rui called again, so he made an appointment to the memorial hall.
Wen Zelin was not the only one who came. Ding Shiyi, Jiang Zhijun and director Jiao all followed.When the staff of the memorial hall saw this scene, they felt more and more that they had made the right decision and were extremely attentive in serving tea and pouring water.
Jiang Zhijun looked around and sighed, "I''ve seen a lot. It''s the first time I''ve seen people in the memorial hall."
Yang Rui was a little embarrassed: "I came with my grandfather. It happened that you would have some tea first. I''ll find someone to pick him up, and then we''ll sit down and talk."
"Don''t be so troublesome, I think so. Let''s go out and find a place to talk, and let my orderly stay here to watch. When the old man has a good sleep and is comfortable, let''s drive back together and continue to talk with you. " Ding Shiyi deliberately lowered his voice and called his serviceman over.
The orderly is a smart young man. He wears military uniform and carries Ding Xi''s briefcase. It''s reassuring to watch.
Yang Rui nodded and agreed. He told the people in the memorial hall. Then he went out to take a bus and went to the front door to find a small doorman to sit down.
"We had a talk with Lao Jiao and thought this business could be done. We wanted to cooperate." Without waiting for the tea to be brewed, Ding Xi Yi explained his purpose.
Jiang Zhijun was dumbfounded and said, "Lao Ding, you don''t talk about things like that."
"Ding is Ding, Mao is Mao. It''s no fun pulling the calf. Yang Rui, give me your opinion. " Ding Xi''s style is rough, but the effect is good.
Yang Rui was stared at by several people. After thinking about it, he first asked, "how many of you are going to go to the sea?"
"It depends on the situation. If you want someone to manage it, it''s Xiaowen. Otherwise, we''ll all look for someone to name it." What Ding Xi Xi said didn''t cover up at all, which made several people turn their eyes.
Yang Rui''s mind is the emergence of a variety of collusion between government and business picture.
