Back To The Age Of The '80s

The people in Roche China are still very careful in their work. There is a thick pile of donation agreements. The people in Roche’s legal department worked overtime for three days before rushing out. They proofread word by word to clearly write the rights and obligations of both parties.

If it were Huaqing University 30 years later, it would never accept such a donation agreement.But it’s different now. Now Huaguo is trying to get recognition from the outside world. A world-class large pharmaceutical company like Roche only provides financial donations to Harvard, Stanford, Cambridge and other world-class university laboratories every year.

But now, Roche Huaguo actually proposes to donate a laboratory to Huaqing University. Does this mean that in Roche Huaguo's view, Huaqing University is a world-class university, or has the potential to be a world-class university?

Even after seeing the donation agreement, Zhao Depei could probably guess what Luo Che meant, but he...

Zhao Depei gave a wry smile, he still couldn't resist the temptation.This donation agreement will not be put on the bright side. At least, at least from outsiders' perspective, Roche has indeed donated a laboratory to Huaqing, which has a huge boost to Huaqing's reputation.

"The actual user can only be Li Zheng? Is this still donated to our Huaqing?" Professor Sun frowned when he heard this, and his face was a little ugly.

The scene suddenly became a little stiff.

When Li Zheng asked Luo's to borrow Huaqing's hand to send the laboratory to himself, he thought that there might be twists and turns, but so what, since Huaqing voluntarily accepted the donation and signed the donation agreement, they The agreement must be fulfilled, and he just needs to wait for the laboratory to be delivered to him.

But I didn't expect that my luck was so bad that I ran into this scene on the first day.

"Old Sun, what Huaqing University lacks now is not the laboratory, but the reputation and the international recognition!" Zhao Depei's voice is resounding, which is why he insisted on inviting Li Zheng to come to Huaqing. Important reason for the school's international ranking.

Professor Sun was silent for a long time, "Well, I see." He turned and left, although there was no anger on his face, but the joy when he came was also gone.

After Professor Sun left, Zhao Depei couldn't help showing a wry smile.

"Mr. Li Zheng, I am laughing at you. The domestic scientific research conditions are difficult."

"Principal, you can call me Li Zheng. The domestic scientific research conditions are difficult, but everyone can achieve so many achievements under such difficult conditions, which is really admirable."

Li Zheng knew that it was not a good choice for him to return to China at this time. Huaguo only implemented the first patent law on April 1985, 4, and this patent law was very unfriendly to biopharmaceuticals. Article 1 clearly stipulates that certain chemical inventions shall not be granted patent rights.

Western medicines are almost all chemicals and biological agents. In other words, the patent rights of medicines are almost unprotected in China at present.

It was not until January 1993, 1 that the revised Patent Law fully opened up patent protection in the field of chemistry.

Some people have said that for domestic inventions, go abroad to apply for patents.

The patents of the United States, the United Kingdom and other countries are generally recognized by all countries in the world.However, Huaguo officially became a member of the Paris Convention in 1985, granting patent protection to the nationals of the other party.Prior to this, even if Chinese people applied for patents abroad, they might not necessarily be able to obtain patent protection from the United States, the United Kingdom and other countries.

Zhao Depei looked fixedly at Li Zheng.

"Li Zheng, Luo's donation is yours, right?" He still asked, and Zhao Depei stared closely at Li Zheng's expression, trying to see something from his face.

Elder Meng also seemed a little surprised. He had only just heard the news that Roche had donated a laboratory to Huaqing. Zhao Depei's mouth was really serious.

Li Zheng looked up at Zhao Depei without denying it, and said with a light smile, "I know that Huaqing University's scientific research resources are tight, and I'm a junior, so I have the nerve to compete with the seniors, so I prepared it myself."

"Principal Zhao, don't worry, I prepared the laboratory myself, and you don't need to worry about the project funds. The two production lines of Li Zheng's laboratory and Merck's joint project team have already entered Tianjin Pharmaceutical Park, and my laboratory has sufficient funds. Source." For Zhao Depei, he made no secret of his sharpness, sometimes he can only be underestimated if he keeps a low profile, showing off his muscles is also necessary.

"All the project results will be applied in the name of Li Zheng's laboratory, and the scientific research papers after the patent application will have the prefix of Huaqing University added in front of Li Zheng's name."

Li Zheng paused, "Xiangjiang is part of Huaguo, and Li Zheng's laboratory has always been Huaguo's laboratory."

Zhao Depei and Meng Lao looked at each other, and they both saw the smiles in each other's eyes.If it wasn't for Li Zheng sitting in front of them, it would be hard for the two of them to believe that such a thoughtful person would be a young man.

Xiangjiang is a part of Huaguo, and Li Zheng's laboratory is Huaguo's laboratory. The achievements it made are naturally the achievements of Huaguo's scientific research circle. Huajing can explain Li Zheng's statement.And one country, two systems means that Li Zheng's laboratory in Xiangjiang will only belong to Li Zheng's private, protected by national policies, no one can take it away, and his personal interests are also preserved.

The two of them have lived for most of their lives, and they are not as clear as this young man.

"It's enough. Don't worry about the laboratory, I will take care of it. You can see when you can join the job. I discussed with Mr. Meng. You can follow Mr. Meng first and enjoy the treatment of an associate professor. When this graduate student graduates, Get a postgraduate title, and then officially become an associate professor."

"I can join the job at any time." Li Zheng knew that this was already a great sincerity, after all, he only had a bachelor's degree now.Any lecturer in Huaqing University has a higher education than him.

"That's great." Zhao Depei's smile deepened a lot, "If that's the case, then get ready for your first public class." This is also a tradition in Huaqing, where new teachers will have a public class.

It is not only students who come to listen to the open class, if lecturers, associate professors, and professors are interested, they can also come to listen.

Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth. He remembered that 30 years later, there would be no such tradition...

"I heard that Huaqing has a new professor."

"Really or not, which department?"

"Department of Biology, the open class is in the afternoon, I heard that he is very young."

"forty?"

"I don't know, he's very young anyway. He's the youngest professor in Huaqing!"

Huajing in May is already a bit hot, and the huge tree covers on both sides of the campus road block the scorching sun, giving pedestrians an extra shade.

David and Li Zheng walked side by side on the road of Huaqing University.

In Huaqing University in the 80s, foreigners were still rare, and the blonde David attracted the attention of many people.

"Lee, they're talking about you."

Li Zheng glanced at David, "It seems that your Chinese is getting better and better."

When David heard this, he couldn't help showing a smug expression on his face, "Of course, as I said, I'm a language genius."

Because of Li Zheng's relationship, Merck has also noticed the Huaguo market, and has been making frequent moves recently.The matter of imipenem made the Chinese government and the people have a very high degree of favorability for Merck, and for a while it actually threatened Roche's status in China.

David pointed to the Huaguo market and pushed him to Mr. Robert's position. Naturally, he didn't want to lose the advantage of being the first to enter the Huaguo market, so he came to Huajing in person.

"Okay, as long as you're happy." Li Zheng shrugged.

It is well known that Roche donated a laboratory to Huaqing.On the second day after Li Zheng signed the letter of appointment, the headline on the front page of Xinghua News Agency was about the donation of the laboratory by Roche.

The report was eloquent and eloquent, listing all the schools that Roche had donated. The names of these world-renowned schools made the Chinese people excited. Even Yenching University, which knew the inside story, couldn't help but feel sour.

Recently, when Huaqing students met with Yan University students, this is the thing they like to mention most.

Roche donated a laboratory to our school.

Yanjing University and Huaqing University, when Hua people mention the two schools, they habitually put Yenching University ahead of Huaqing University. Although the two schools are brothers, they are also competitors. This is what Huaqing people always think Thinking about why it is Yanda Huaqing instead of Huaqing Yanda.

Now Roche has donated a laboratory to Huaqing, but not to Yanda. Does this mean that Yanda is not as good as Huaqing in the eyes of world-class companies?

Thinking of this possibility, the backs of these Huaqing students straightened, and even the smiles on their faces deepened a bit.

However, what followed was the issue of the ownership of the laboratory. Because of Zhao Depei's selfishness, he did not make the donation agreement clear, so he communicated with several old professors from Huaqing University.

Although these old professors felt a little thumping in their hearts, they also knew that no one else could be blamed for this matter, so they remained silent.

But the younger faculty and staff don't think so. Chen Anbang's generation is at the peak of their academic career, domestic scientific research resources are limited, and the cakes of those old professors cannot be moved. The resources in their hands are even tighter. Many associate professors work in a laboratory with two or three people.

This Roche laboratory covers an area of ​​more than 500 square meters. They have seen the pictures in the newspaper, which are all the most advanced scientific instruments in the world. All the laboratory equipment in Huaqing University add up. Comparable to others.

For a researcher, this is an irresistible temptation.

"It's almost time, are you interested in listening to my open class?" Li Zheng said to David with a smile.

"Of course, it's my pleasure."
