Qi Min took Bo Rong to the "Nimbus" computing center. At this time, people from Yunnan's cynomolgus monkey experimental company had arrived, and researcher Zhou Xiaoshan was taking them to see the laboratory that had been set aside for the cynomolgus monkey experiment.

Seeing Qi Min coming up from the stairs, Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan stopped and introduced to the two company people: "This is the person in charge of the project, Teacher Qi Min."

Although they were chatting and laughing on the phone, Qi Min couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when actually meeting him, so he hurried up two steps to shake hands with the two visitors.

She noticed that the visitor ID hanging around the neck of the younger man said "Sales Manager: Liu Zhengtian", which should be the person who contacted her on the phone. The visitor ID of another older man said "Engineer: Yu Qinglong", and he was probably the expert mainly responsible for laboratory equipment.

Standing behind Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan was a rather tall young man, who seemed to be a doctoral student or other staff member in her laboratory. But Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan didn't introduce him, so Qi Min didn't know who this person was.

If you don’t know, just don’t know. The most important thing is to serve the company’s people—especially engineers—well.

Qi Min followed Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan and took the two sales managers and engineers to visit the laboratory.

When they arrived at the vacated laboratory in the "Nimbus" center, sales manager Liu Zhengtian naturally had nothing to say, while engineer Yu Qinglong looked around and then said: "It looks okay. How are you going to do this..." Brain-computer connection?”

Just when Qi Min was about to speak, Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan said first: "The procedure for this experiment should have been sent to you, right?"

"I've read the process, but based on the text alone, I still don't know how your experiment works," the engineer said.

"Do you want to see the specific experimental operations?" Qi Min asked.

"That's not necessary." The engineer said briskly, "Because I don't know exactly how to perform the surgery in your experiment, so I can't arrange the positions of these equipments. I can just talk about it."

Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan said to the tall young man following her: "Shujiang, go and ask Ke Li to come over."

Qi Min originally thought that she could just talk, but since Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan wanted to be called Ke Yue, it would be better to let Ke Yue, the person who actually does the operation, do it.

The laboratories at the "Nimbus" center are all for dry experiments, and experiments can be easily stopped, so Ke Li came over quickly. Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan briefly explained the situation to him, and he explained the operation of connecting the corpus callosum interface to the rat brain in detail to the engineer, interspersed with various discussions.

Finally, the engineer said: "Then your one-room laboratory is not enough. The monkey needs to be connected to the interface in a separate operating room, and then taken to another room for experiments. Otherwise, your sterile area and non-sterile area will be separated." Indistinguishable."

"Yes... it should be like this..." Qi Min looked at Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan with some hesitation.

Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan said: "Behavioral experiments have relatively low decoration requirements and can be done on our underground public platform. Let's see if it is possible to transform this laboratory into an operating room."

"That's no problem." The engineer said quickly, "I'll have someone come and move our equipment first... When will the instruments you ordered arrive?"

Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan looked at her side, and the tall young man following her said: "Oh, most of them have arrived, but some of the imported supplies are still going through customs. They should arrive next week...Thursday."

The engineer nodded: "When our company's technicians arrive, we can move the equipment into the laboratory." He looked at Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan, and then at the young sales manager who was with him, "How about now? ……so?"

Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan said calmly: "Well, let's get here first today. It's almost dinner time, and there are several good restaurants around our center. We have already made reservations."

——

Qi Min took Bai Rong and a small group of people like Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan to a Yunnan restaurant near the "Nimbus" computing center. Yunnan cuisine is not very popular in Beijing. This is probably to cater to the taste of engineers.

But then at the dinner table, Qi Min learned that Engineer Yu Qinglong was not from Yunnan but from Shanxi. He only moved there because he originally worked in the Chinese Academy of Sciences system and because the research group in Yunnan opened a company. Be an expert in instrumentation and equipment.

Of course, no matter where you are, you can eat Yunnan food. However, because there were "outsiders" at the dinner table, Qi Min seemed a little embarrassed when eating, which made Bai Rong, her follower, even more frightened.

As a male undergraduate student, Bai Rong originally had a large appetite, but seeing his boss "carving out everything" there, he didn't dare to let go of the food. He finished a spoonful of pineapple rice in almost 20 minutes. .

At the dinner table, Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan was basically the only one talking to the engineers about experiments, and even the younger sales manager didn't talk to her. The tall young man brought by Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan turned out to be the administrator of her laboratory. Because of his "seniority", he just ate in silence at this time. Qi Min was not used to such occasions, and she only answered a few words when Ms. Zhou Xiaoshan called her.

Halfway through the meal, Qi Min sneaked out for a while on the pretext of going to the bathroom.

Hiding in the bathroom, she turned on her phone and found that Ke Li asked on WeChat: "The person who came to the laboratory is the person you invited to be the cynomolgus monkey?"

Qi Min replied: "Yes, what's wrong?"

"The experiment hasn't been done yet, but this shelf is quite big." Ke Yue replied.

Qi Min called him on WeChat, and Ke Yue picked up the phone and asked, "How can I help?"

"No... I just thought," Qi Min said hesitantly, "You may need to keep a closer eye on the cynomolgus monkey experiment."

"Why, do you think the company is unreliable?" Ke Yue asked.

"No... they are quite professional, but they should have their own experimental methods. I'm afraid that the company's technicians will change the process by themselves." Qi Min explained, "So I may have to ask you to explain some places. It can’t be changed.”

"That's no problem." Ke Yue agreed immediately, and joked again, "After you have completed this project, don't you have to add my name to it? Then I must be interested, right?"

Qi Min really feels that Ke Yue has helped a lot with this topic. Although she must ensure that she is the first in the co-author's list (and also the last corresponding author), she may still be able to provide some help to Ke Yue. A joint work that ranks second. However, this horoscope has not yet been revealed, so Qi Min will not tell Ke Yue on the spot, lest he be embarrassed if he fails to fulfill it.

She just said: "That's for sure." She added, "By the way, we have a new undergraduate student in our laboratory. He is a senior doing graduate work. He may go to the Nimbus Center a few times... "

"Want to help take care of your junior brother?" Ke Li said proactively, "That's no problem."

"Thank you so much!" Qi Min thanked him immediately.

"It doesn't matter, you have treated me to dinner after all." Ke Yue said with a smile.

Looking for recommendations every day?
