At lunchtime, Grace came to Yang Rui with a plate, sat down and asked, "There is no one here, right.

"No, no, welcome Miss Grace." Huang Mao who was at the same table quickly got up and said: "I happen to have something..."

"Sit down, I want to chat with you." Grace sat down with Huang Mao pulled her eyes.

Huang Mao was inexplicably affected, and obediently returned to his previous position.

Tu Xian and Wang Xiaoyun, who originally wanted to leave, also looked at Grace curiously.

"I want to join your experimental group, okay?" Grace didn't have any foreplay, and directly inserted into Yang Rui, just like her previous style.

Yang Rui put down his chopsticks in surprise and said, "You mean Huarui Lab?"

"correct."

"I'm afraid I can't pay your salary, and Huarui Lab cannot afford too much research funding." Yang Rui thought for a while and said slowly.

Although Grace often works for non-profit organizations, she is also a professor in Cambridge, and regardless of her job, her annual salary is more than $30,000.

In fact, a professor at the University of Cambridge, if he teaches both departments and colleges at the same time, earns more than $100,000.

However, Huarui Lab does not currently recruit foreign researchers, and Yang Rui feels that it is not appropriate to simply offer Grace a salary of tens of thousands of dollars.

The most important thing is that Huarui Lab cannot afford to join scholars like Grace for the time being.

Set aside the salary first, after any laboratory recruits talents. The first thing to be opened should be research funding.

Yang Rui is not very clear about Grace's ability, but the general level of Cambridge professors. It is normal to spend millions of dollars a year on experiments.

If it is an ion channel laboratory, a Cambridge professor who spends millions of dollars a year to wait for the award can barely make sense. Huarui Laboratory is not a real non-profit laboratory. Scholars with special personality like Grace will join. Yang Rui couldn't suppress it consciously.

Grace naturally thought about such a problem. Said: "What is the annual salary you can afford? I can take the same salary as a Chinese scholar and accompany you to complete the deferiprone project, how about it?"

As soon as Grace said this, Yang Rui's chopsticks could not be held securely: "You don't want research funding?"

"I just want to help you quickly make deferiprone. As long as I am doing the deferiprone project, I can use the research funding of deferiprone to conduct related research."

"China's current salary is very low, only more than one hundred dollars a month." Yang Rui is not scaring Grace, Huang Mao and others currently hold the highest salary in the laboratory. That's more than 1,000 yuan. If you take full overtime pay, that is, 3,000 yuan is the most, which is converted into US dollars. Usually it is less than 500. Of course, the official price is more than that, but normal people cannot exchange the official price for US dollars.

Grace thought of this early and calmly said: "I can live with savings. My life is not demanding."

"I believe you, but..."

"Salary is not a problem." Grace said: "I just hope that deferiprone will be available soon, I believe. With your ability, you will be able to do this."

Grace feels great to Yang Rui.

She felt that Yang Rui was the purest researcher she had ever met.

The development of new drugs is not an easy task, and it is never cheap. The average full development cost of 100 million US dollars, or the half-process development cost of 10 million US dollars, is beyond normal charitable behavior.

Grace has not heard of any philanthropist or charity organization that would spend all of his wealth to develop medicines for an unprofitable disease.

All drug development projects are dominated by profit by pharmaceutical companies. Even if they are charitable organizations set up for a certain disease, all they can do is urge and negotiate, and they are unable to lead drug development.

As an important member of Huarui, Yang Rui personally performed this work. It can be understood that he has excellent technical skills, and it can also be understood that he is the person in charge of this project.

Grace couldn't imagine how much quarrels and arguments and how strong persuasive ability was needed before Yang Rui could make Huarui Company resolutely invest in the research of deferiprone.

No matter what it was, Grace was impressed.

Yang Rui didn't know what Grace was thinking, so he thought about it, and said, "I can't guarantee anything..."

"You don't need your guarantee..."

"I cannot guarantee the listing of deferiprone, nor can I guarantee which step deferiprone can achieve. I also cannot guarantee the price of deferiprone after it is listed, or even whether deferiprone can continue to be completed in our hands, you Understand? This is a very risky project, and ultimately it must be attributed to capital." Yang Rui said very detailed and true. He has the ability to complete pre-clinical research at a lower cost, which accounts for about one-third of new drug research, but for capital, this is just the first step in a long march.

Not to mention the Phase I and Phase II clinical trials that prevented 90% of the drugs from being launched, but the extremely high cost of Phase III can block the ambitions of any small pharmaceutical company. Each time it ranges from two to three hundred to as many as 1,000 people. After doing eight times and nine times, the cost is quite US$100 million. In this way, fda may not be able to pass the audit.

Outside the United States, the cost of clinical trials will not be low, and the cost of public relations may be higher...

The development of new drugs is a bottomless pit. Yang Rui is now involved in it, and he is already very ambitious. It is simply incapable of developing this kind of thing in the whole process.

The future of deferiprone can only be sold to large pharmaceutical companies after getting better data, just like the scientific research process of all small pharmaceutical companies.

This is the operating rules of the pharmaceutical system. Small biotechnology companies conduct research on one or two targets and do preclinical research, while large biotechnology companies conduct research on multiple targets and still do preclinical research. While the company is doing research on biological targets, it also acquires target research from biotech companies, and conducts preliminary compound synthesis and even clinical research, but in the end, almost all drugs that want to be marketed must pass the hands of large pharmaceutical companies. .

In European and American countries, such a system is unbreakable. Only excellent capital can change the operating attitude. In addition, no matter how strong scholars can only participate in films like well-known directors in the Hollywood system, they cannot dominate the film. No matter how strong it is, Biotechnology companies can only be like production companies to produce films, but cannot distribute films. Only large pharmaceutical companies have full operational capabilities and are profitable in all directions, just like large Hollywood distribution companies.

Grace groaned slightly for a few seconds, then said again: "I believe you."

Yang Rui was surprised and couldn't help asking: "Why do you believe me?"

"With your abilities~www.NovelMTL.com~ If it is to make money, you can choose other drugs, but you choose deferiprone." Grace smiled slightly and said: "Like I said, you are a man Excellent scholar, but you are a fighter first..."

"Fighter, I really can't talk about it."

"Perhaps you don't know, but you are indeed launching an assault on this decadent medical system. You may fail, most of them will fail. With your cleverness, you probably expected it, but you still stood up and ran away. Get up, like Don Quixote." Grace's volume is not high, only the tablemate can barely hear her.

Yang Rui raised his head. Suddenly, he was a little confused about his thoughts. Perhaps, there was some element in his subconscious that was anxious and restless.

However, after a few seconds, Yang Rui let go of this idea and said: "Our goal is to make deferiprone and to complete the relevant research as fully as possible, nothing more."

"I understand, so, did I join?" Grace said that I believed your expression, her eyes staring directly at Yang Rui.

Yang Rui hesitated for a moment, and said, "You won't get any income except salary."

"I do."

"Well, we should also enter the stage of animal experimentation, are you willing to do it?"

"Animal experiments? I'm the best at this." Grace noticed Yang Rui's expression, smiled, and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a hypocritical environmentalist."
