"There’s no need for such a fancy server!"
Wei Shiqing was heartbroken, "What a waste, what a waste! With that much funding, how great it would be to buy equipnt!"
Fan Lei shook his head, "We’ve already purchased the equipnt. We had a eting yesterday and couldn’t think of anything else to buy. Everything purchasable, we bought. There are so things we can’t get due to international bans."
He shook his head as he spoke, seemingly a bit regretful.
Hearing this almost made Wei Shiqing vomit blood. Their Microbiology Technology Lab had been scrimping and saving for research funding, and every ti they wanted to add a piece of equipnt, it was application after application.
Now, the labs at the dical Science Center didn’t even have all their equipnt yet, and they were considering whether to move over the old equipnt.
The Biodical Research Institute, on the other hand, had already bought until there was nothing left to purchase!
"This is really infuriating!"
No matter how Wei Shiqing thought about it, it didn’t sit well with him, and looking at Fan Lei only made it worse. As he left, he couldn’t help but complain, "A math genius, playing the supervisor... what a waste of talent!"
"I C..."
Fan Lei almost let loose with a swear word, but by the ti he looked again, Wei Shiqing was already far away. Muttering in frustration, he said, "Professor Wei really has no class, how long has it been? And he’s still joking about that."
Wei Shiqing was even more depressed than he was.
As research institutions within the School of Life Sciences, the Microbiology Technology Lab and the Biodical Research Institute differed vastly. The Biodical Research Institute had produced heavyweight results for several years in a row, repeatedly winning national science and technology advancent first prizes, and discoveries like the 2CV-Bing Hydrogen Molecule and Tianqing Protein were major international findings concerning significant infectious diseases, while also creating imnse economic benefits.
The Biodical Research Institute now had surpassed not just Shuimu University’s dical laboratories but also the Affiliated Laboratory of Xiecheng Hospital, becoming the top dical research institution in the country.
This wasn’t rely nominal but an actual, substantive first place.
Whether it was the scale of the institution, the caliber of the research staff, or research funding, not to ntion fa, Biodical Research had truly beco number one.
The Microbiology Technology Lab had barely changed compared to a few years ago; they had a significant discovery about controllable viral variants, but progress had been slow, and there were no particularly outstanding results.
Where did the two differ?
"Zhao Yi!"
Wei Shiqing was pondering this na with his frustrations and didn’t know when he had returned to the Microbiology Technology Lab. He looked up and saw a student coming out.
He seed ... sowhat familiar?
"You’re that ... you’re ...," Wei Shiqing pointed at the student, struggling to rember for a long ti.
"Professor Wei, my na is Li Renzhe!" Li Renzhe reminded him cheerfully.
"Right, Li Renzhe. I just rembered, and you said it yourself," Wei Shiqing smiled and spoke, "You’re Zhao Yi’s roommate, right?"
Li Renzhe said with so regret, "We’ve graduated, so we’re not together anymore."
"I rember you, you’ve co to...?"
"To find my ntor."
Li Renzhe said, "I’ve registered with Professor ng Bin. He asked to co over and talk about things before school starts."
"Oh~"
Wei Shiqing patted Li Renzhe on the shoulder encouragingly, "ng Bin, I know him, he’s a very responsible teacher. You enrolled in microbiology? Microbiology has a vast research field; you’ll be proud of your choice in the future."
"Thank you."
Li Renzhe expressed his gratitude sincerely.
"Right," Wei Shiqing suddenly thought of a question, "You and Zhao Yi were roommates, why didn’t you apply for biodical studies? Our school has more ntors in that field." He was referring to the Biodical Research Institute, which had many researchers ntor students. The Biodical Research Institute alone had over twenty researchers, and even if only a quarter of them took students, the numbers would still overwhelm other directions.
Upon hearing this, Li Renzhe was stunned. He hadn’t expected soone to ask this and replied sowhat gloomily without thinking, "Zhao Yi doesn’t take students. Also, because of him, the biodical major is too hot. Many of my classmates applied for it. Microbiology was much better, the cutoff score was lower; I inquired about it, and just passing the line by fifty points was enough to get in."
"..."
Although Li Renzhe spoke the truth, no matter how Wei Shiqing heard it, it didn’t feel good.
Biodical studies are popular?
The field of microbiology is a large unpopular one, almost no one signs up, and just passing by fifty points is enough to get in? In other words, the microbiology field is attracting poor students!
After returning to his office, the more Wei Shiqing thought about it, the angrier he got. He decided to go to the large office next door, walked in, and found ng Bin to say, "Professor ng!"
"I think in our field of microbiology, we must train high-quality scientific researchers for a better future."
"Cultivating research starts with the students. Professor ng, you’re about to take on a new group of students, aren’t you?"
"Yes?" ng Bin was a bit puzzled.
Wei Shiqing spoke firmly, "We must have high expectations for the students, both in research and in their papers. We must be strict, then stricter, to filter out high-standard, high-quality talent!"
"Those who are just here for a degree, we must be vigilant; let them know microbiology isn’t that easy."
"That’s all I wanted to say."
"Oh, okay."
ng Bin watched Wei Shiqing’s retreating figure, not quite understanding why he ca to say all this, but Professor Wei’s words were certainly correct. Research in microbiology was not easy, with extrely high demands for precision in operations; otherwise, any mistake could be fatal.
