Genius of the Rules-Style System

Chapter 343: Chapter 227: How Did They Finish It in Just a Month? _2

This institution is very wealthy.

Even the lowest-level staff, as long as they are within the staffing, it’s not surprising that they receive a hundred thousand in bonus at the end of the year. The reason that the staff do not receive million-level highest salaries is only due to the unique characteristics of the unit that do not allow such high wages.

The Biomedical Research Institute’s projects are all allocated from the top, they have to apply for funding for each project, and each expense needs a corresponding report.

Even if there are some idle funds in the research institute, they are basically all attached with various fund titles.

Therefore, the researchers and associate researchers in the institute, at least superficially, can’t get the money, and ordinary associate researchers only have salaries and benefits. Ai Lixin is an associate researcher, and his salary is relatively high. Including the five insurances and one fund, the average monthly salary is only about twelve or thirteen thousand.

For an old employee who has been working for more than a decade after graduating with a doctorate, staying in the research institute to work on projects, and being promoted to associate researcher, a salary of just over ten thousand is really just a labor of love.

So, for Ai Lixin, a bonus of several tens of thousands is still very attractive.

But no matter what, he has already come to Zhao Yi’s research institute, and at least for a short time, there could not be any changes, so he could only hope that the project can proceed smoothly.

With Ai Lixin joining the lab, the work efficiency immediately improved a lot.

Ai Lixin is very experienced and has also worked on Rheumatoid Arthritis projects. After understanding the progress of the project, he immediately designed a few experiments and observation/detection plans. After discussing with Zhang Wei, he decided to start from two angles and proceed with the experiments and observations simultaneously.

In this process, Liu Chengjie still assisted or acted as a runner for the cooperating hospital.

Zhao Yi was mostly learning, but he was the core staff. Every experiment, every observation, he had to conduct the final analysis.

The progress of the project was very fast, and it could be said that there was progress every day.

This time, unlike last time, Zhao Yi stayed with the project the whole time, advancing the research bit by bit. He didn’t rush to consume a large amount of energy to directly get results, but slowly followed the progress of the experiment, and he also learned a lot.

For example, how to design experiments, how to observe, which data is more important, where to start in medical mechanism research, etc.

A series of complex problems will be encountered in the process of doing the project. Even Zhao Yi feels that the project is done bit by bit.

Half a month later.

In Zhao Yi’s lab, several people shouted with excitement together.

"We did it!"

"Now we can settle the project."

"Sister Zhang will again write this project report, Old Ai, you are responsible for organizing data, to see which parts can be published."

"We will have a gathering and celebrate tomorrow!"

"No one will be excluded from bonuses!"

The Rheumatoid Arthritis project was completed step by step, but the few people in Zhao Yi’s lab were quite low-key and did not publicly announce it.

In the Biomedical Research Institute, most people were still focused on the research of Dai Tianqing and Han Hui. Finding a new suppressor factor was indeed a big project.

There was significant progress in Dai Tianqing’s lab. He, Han Hui, and Academician Zheng held a small meeting in the director’s office. Dai Tianqing shared the latest progress, the findings in his lab, future direction, etc.

Dai Tianqing was very excited. After the latest progress, they could officially announce it to the public, "We have found a way to obtain a substance containing the suppressor factor."

"Although we can’t extract the suppressor factor alone, we are sure that we can identify the presence of a new factor through a chemical reaction."

"This is a completely new factor. When we publish it, we should give it a name."

"I suggest calling it ZY Factor."

"This factor appeared in the hypothesis paper of Zhao Yi. In addition, I must admit, Zhao Yi pointed out the critical issue in the latest discovery and helped us find the research direction." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Dai Tianqing said earnestly.

The credit for discovering the new suppressor factor is not entirely due to Dai Tianqing’s lab, Han Hui’s lab also did a lot of work. Therefore, he can’t decide the naming of the new factor alone.

"I agree!"

"This was originally predicted by Zhao Yi. Naming it ZY Factor is the most suitable."

Director Yan also agreed, and immediately delegated work, "Old Dai, write a public announcement right away. We need to publish it on the institute’s official website, and later there will definitely be media interviews. You all have to be prepared."

"The impact of this research is huge, and I also have to talk to Zhao Yi."

"Future research also needs to be accelerated. We will definitely find a detection method, but if we can’t confirm the existence of the factor from multiple angles, it essentially means failure."

Dai Tianqing nodded seriously.

"Boom, boom..."

The door was suddenly knocked on.

"Come in!"

Several people looked towards the door at the same time, where Ai Lixin walked in holding a file in his hand.

"Lixin, you’re here!"

Dai Tianqing greeted him with a beaming smile. Since Ai Lixin had left his lab, he had always felt a sense of regret, as if he had been abandoned.

Although it wasn’t a big deal to see each other usually, he couldn’t help bragging about the progress in their study, "You leaving is really regrettable. Our research has made significant progress in these two days. We have identified a new factor and even figured out the detection method!"

"Really? Congratulations!"

Ai Lixin nodded as he listened, his face seemingly sincere, but not showing the regret Dai Tianqing wished to see.

Dai Tianqing was slightly frustrated, and then continued, "You contributed to this project, Lixin. I was thinking of including your name in the final report, but when the official announcement is made, your name can’t be included. I hope you understand."

He was referring to listing the project members’ names.

When the news is announced publicly, the list of personnel might attract attention. Ai Lixin, who didn’t continue with the project, naturally wouldn’t be listed.

"Well, it doesn’t matter."

Ai Lixin was still very indifferent. He handed the file in his hand to Director Yan and explained his intention, "Director Yan, I am here to submit the project closing report, which is on the Rheumatoid Arthritis project."

"What?"

Yan Xuelin was so startled that he almost thought he had misheard. Dai Tianqing simply stared wide-eyed and yelled out loud, "Stop joking!"

"What’s wrong?"

Ai Lixin frowned and said, "Our project was completed a few days ago. This is the project report. You can take a look at it."

"...Alright."

Yan Xuelin somewhat blankly took the report and then began to read it carefully.

There was no problem.

There was no problem.

Definitely... there was no problem.

Yan Xuelin spent about ten minutes reading it. All the others in the office were watching him. Dai Tianqing was all ready to hear a ’something’s wrong’, but in the end, he heard nothing.

Yan Xuelin closed the report, handed it to Academician Zheng next to him, then sighed, "I see, there should be no problem!" He was very surprised.

He had always thought that Zhao Yi’s lab couldn’t possibly complete the Rheumatoid Arthritis project, but now, it was done in less than a month?

Impossible?

No!

Even the impossible could be possible!

The report clearly explained the process, introduced the experiments and observation content that showed significant progress and also detailed reasons for drawing the conclusions.

If the report content is fine, then basically there should be no issues.

Rheumatoid Arthritis is a multimillion-dollar project. To close the project isn’t as simple as just producing a report, relevant papers must be published. Moreover, an inspection will be sent from the authorities, similar to product inspection. Only after a detailed review and comparison can the project truly be considered completed.

This process is impossible to fake.

Ai Lixin, who had been working for more than a decade, was familiar with the inspection process, and even more unlikely to call an incomplete project complete.

So, there definitely were no issues.

After glancing over the report, Academician Zheng also said, "There’s no problem." He even added a comment, "In the report, each progress is explained very clearly. This project has been done quite well."

That was the conclusion.

After Ai Lixin submitted the report, he left. The office fell into silence.

Yan Xuelin took a deep breath, turned to Dai Tianqing, and asked, "So... why is it that you guys who thought the funds were insufficient and saw no progress after half a year of research, Zhao Yi’s lab managed to complete the project within a month?"

"....."

All of a sudden, Dai Tianqing didn’t feel too pleased.
