Back To The Age Of The '80s

"Ah, I'm finally back." When the plane landed at Xiangjiang Airport, Li Zheng stretched his limbs and let out a contented sigh.

It was already midsummer, and the scorching sun was scorching the concrete runway of the airport. After standing for a while, fine sweat appeared on Li Zheng's forehead.

"I've been locked up in the laboratory for so many days, and I feel like my whole body will melt when exposed to the sun." He raised his hand to cover his eyes.

The corner of Liang Zhe's mouth twitched slightly, he walked to Li Zheng's side, and put the hat in his hand on Li Zheng's head.

Liang Zhe's hat was obviously bigger, covering half of Li Zheng's head at once.

Li Zheng...

The two walked out from the VIP channel under the leadership of the airport guide.The news of Li Zheng's return to Xiangjiang reached Xiangjiang as early as yesterday evening, and the reporters in Xiangjiang immediately became excited.

Because Li Zheng is a student of Xiangjiang University, Xiangjiang people naturally put the credit for training such an excellent biological scientist on themselves.

For this reason, Xu Mingsheng and Su Changzhi have accepted no less than three interviews. At the beginning, the two old professors thought it was quite fresh and cooperated very well.

But when the report came out, the two of them took a look, it was wrong.The two scholars are both figures of extremely noble academic morality, and they are definitely not the same as the one who snatched the research results of their colleagues from Dongchen University.

Regarding the relationship between Li Zheng and Xiangjiang University, they are Men Qinger.It is better to say that Li Zheng and Xiangjiang University are a relationship between their alma mater and students than a partnership of mutual benefit.

After Li Zheng came to Xiangjiang University, how many classes did he take?They want to cultivate such a biological genius, and they need to be given a chance.

So the two disagreed with the so-called statement in the report that Xiangjiang University cultivated and bred this genius.

But so what if you don’t agree, the people of Xiangjiang like to watch this, and Xiangjiang University’s international ranking this year has also risen a few places. Many medical students from Singapore, Japan, and South Korea have chosen Hong Kong University instead of their own universities.

When this statistical data came out, Su Changzhi was so happy that his beard turned up two points. He made several calls to his old opponent at the University of Tokyo. .

The reporters of these news stations were still a little less experienced than the entertainment paparazzi, so Li Zheng and the others left by car from the back door of the airport without any effort.

In Extended Lincoln, Li Zheng and Liang Zhe sat on one side, and Fang Butler sat on the other.

"It's dark, and it's also thin. You can't eat well over there, sorry to see you." Fang Butler looked at Li Zheng with a loving expression on his face.

Li Zheng was dumbfounded. He touched his face subconsciously, "Dark?" He was not surprised if he lost weight. After all, Doman's eating habits are very different from those of the Chinese, and he did eat a little less.

But to put it bluntly, he has been staying in the laboratory for half a year, and the time to go out is almost a handful, so can he still be black?

"It's not dark, it looks good." Liang Zhe, who hadn't spoken since getting in the car, suddenly spoke up. He paused and continued: "It looks good even if it's dark."

Li Zheng...

Butler Fang...

Steward Fang blinked, seeing his own Mr. Xiaoliang looking at Li Zheng seriously, and always felt that something was wrong.At this moment, Liang Zhe had turned his head, pursed his lips and looked at Butler Fang.

Butler Fang opened his mouth slightly, and rubbed his eyes. He seemed to have the illusion that Mr. Xiao Liang was acting like a baby with him.

He remembered very clearly that when he was a child, Mr. Liang and Mrs. Liang only let the young master eat one candy at most every day. Whenever Liang Zhe ate up his candy for the day and really wanted to eat it, he would secretly use this kind of look Look at him, and he will give him another candy every time.

Since Mr. Liang and Mrs. Liang passed away, he had never seen Liang Zhe's eyes like this again.Butler Fang's body trembled slightly from excitement.

He subconsciously touched his pocket, but he didn't find any hard lumps in his pocket.Seeing that Liang Zhe's mouth was almost pursed into a straight line, Steward Fang suddenly felt blessed. He opened his mouth before he could think about it.

"It's not dark, it's not dark, the lights in the car are dim, I'm wrong."

Hearing this, Liang Zhe's whole face stretched out. He turned his head to look at Li Zheng, and said seriously, "He was wrong."

Li Zheng laughed softly, and raised his hand to stroke Liang Zhe's hair, "Yes, I see."

The expression on Fang Butler's face became even weirder. He looked at Liang Zhe, then at Li Zheng. Watching the interaction between the two, he actually had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

If it was true 30 years later, Steward Fang would know that this feeling is called Su Shuang who was suddenly fed a handful of dog food.

The car drove up Pok Fu Lam Road, not long after, the sign of Qingyuan appeared far away in everyone's sight.

Several cars with media LOGOs were parked at the gate of Qingyuan. Li Zheng rubbed his temples helplessly. For him now, the media has become a burden instead.

Liang Zhe slightly lowered the car window and made a gesture, and the cars behind him immediately left the convoy, blocking the media cars tightly.

In the lobby of Villa No. 2, people from Li Zheng's laboratory had gathered neatly.

Zhong Peng, Liu Sichao, Ma Wenmin, Chen Xuhua, Zhang Chao, Zhang Yuejun, and Zhou Sitian also came to Li Zheng's laboratory early in the morning, standing at the door and looking around.

Seeing Liang Zhe's car, she couldn't help showing a big smile on her face, "They're back."

Everyone flocked out.

As soon as Li Zheng stepped out of the car door, his sister slapped him hard on the head, "You don't worry, you only agreed to go to receive an award, and it will take half a year to leave. What else is there in Africa where infectious diseases are frequent? You really want to piss me off."

Zhou Sitian's past half a year can be described as frightening, if it wasn't for..., she would even rush to Africa to bring this little boy back.

No matter what those people in the newspapers and TV said about how great Li Zheng was, how great he was, in her eyes, Li Zheng was still that stubborn and inflexible younger brother.

Li Zheng accepted his sister's scolding helplessly, with a good attitude, acting like a model younger brother.Liang Zhe was not happy looking at it, he grabbed Li Zheng's hand, pulled him behind him, and looked at Zhou Sitian dissatisfied.

There was a sudden silence at the scene, half of what Zhou Sitian said was stuck in his throat like this, no matter what he said, no no if he didn't say it.The people in Li Zheng's laboratory behind him also had strange expressions. The hands of Mr. Li Zheng and Mr. Liang...

Li Zheng glared at Liang Zhe, and pulled his hand out of his hand. He coughed dryly and said with a smile, "I'm back."

As soon as this sentence fell, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became lively.

The crowd surrounded Li Zheng and walked into Villa No. 2.

Li Zheng walked halfway and found that Liang Zhe hadn't followed, so he couldn't help but stop and look back at him, "Let's go." He said with a smile.

Liang Zhe raised his head slightly, and the expression on his face suddenly softened. He walked forward quickly like a big dog that had just been groomed.

The feeling in Fang Butler's heart became even weirder. The appearance of Liang Zhe just now made him seem to see the dead Mr. Liang in a trance. The same is true when Mr. Liang is angry with his wife. A simple sentence will be coaxed .

He scratched his head, what was he thinking, old man, old man.Steward Fang shook his head and sighed, and then followed everyone to Villa No. 2.

After entering Villa No. 2, Li Zheng couldn't help but first went to the laboratory to touch his own equipment. After struggling under difficult conditions for more than half a year, he felt that this place was still suitable for him.

The next step is the work report. After Li Zheng left for half a year, Li Zheng's laboratory is still running in an orderly manner.

Papers on regeneration of organs in vitro were published one after another under the auspices of Ma Wenmin, and the one that explained the experimental process in detail was also on the cover of SCIENCE.Li Zheng is a well-deserved corresponding author, but under Ma Wenmin's insistence, his name still appears in the first of the first author.

That is, corresponding author: Li Zheng

First Author: Li Zheng, Wen Wenfeng, Ma Wenmin

Second author: Liu Sichao, Zhong Peng

Zhang Chao, Zhang Yuejun, etc. are the third authors, and even Zheng Lingling is the fourth author. With this qualification, no matter which famous research institute in the world will reject her after she graduates.

In the past six months, the enthusiasm for organ regeneration has continued unabated internationally, and many laboratories have offered olive branches to cooperate with Li Zheng's laboratory, which is a leading laboratory in the field of organ regeneration.

After asking Li Zheng for instructions, Ma Wenmin chose several laboratories with rich resources, profound backgrounds, and outstanding research capabilities to cooperate with, and this consortium has a sign in New York.

The "International Research Center for In Vitro Organ Regenerative Technology" has seized the top spot in the technology of "In Vitro Organ Regeneration".

Speaking of the progress of the research, Ma Wenmin couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. After the human-nosed mouse, the experiment on human regenerative organs was once at a standstill. In fact, this progress is very normal for this kind of large-scale experiment, but after seeing Li Zheng's experiment speed , Compared with herself, she can't help but have self-doubt.

"From bovine chondrocytes to human chondrocytes, it is a very difficult step. How many years has it taken from the idea of ​​regenerating organs in vitro to the realization of human nose mouse experiments. You are already very good."

Zhongpeng has not been in the laboratory for more than ten years, and what he has done most in the past six months is to pick up his own skills again.He even re-learned the use of the latest equipment and the latest experimental techniques together with Zhang Chao and Zhang Yuejun.

Zhong Peng may be a little weak in practice, but the theoretical foundation is indeed the most abundant in Li Zheng's laboratory. Even Li Zheng, if he ignores the advanced knowledge of later generations, he is not as knowledgeable as Professor Zhong.

In the more than ten years since he left the laboratory, Zhong Peng read almost all the biological works he could find. Zhang Chao and Zhang Yuejun jokingly called it a walking encyclopedia of biology.

Zhong Peng was not ashamed to ask, and followed Zhang Chao and Zhang Yuejun to improve their experimental skills, while Zhang Chao and Zhang Yuejun followed him to supplement theoretical knowledge, and the three got along very well.

As for Liu Sichao, Li Zheng flipped through the thick stack of materials and raised his head in surprise.

"Blocking the virus?" This person will really surprise himself.

Liu Sichao lifted his chin proudly, "Yes, it is virus blocking. The idea of ​​my research this time is a virus blocking drug with wide application value, or virus blocking technology, just like 26 letters and those English words , No matter how complex and vivid those English words are, they are essentially composed of these 26 letters.”

"And what I have to do is to find out, or create these 26 letters!" Liu Sichao said loudly.
