Time to Start Working

Fan Tao: "Lou Jinghui successfully applied for the Laser Scanning Confocal Microscope and made a lot of images haphazardly, but we all agreed that it was far from being published in a Top Journal, at most a few SCI papers."

Fan Tao: "Lou Jinghui is, after all, from a Mathematics background, a monk who became a Biology expert halfway. It's his first time independently handling cutting-edge Biology experiments, and he's like a headless fly."

Song He smiled, not surprised.

Lou Jinghui has extremely strong Mathematics skills, but he is still a novice in the field of Biology and needs time to grow.

When he can perfectly combine Mathematics and Biology, he will have the opportunity to become immortal on the spot and produce earth-shattering results, but at present, he is still in the stage of slowly cultivating immortality.

Fan Tao: "Ji Tianhe's group used Autistic Mice to study the Hippocampus and have achieved some results, but they have not yet formed a systematic conclusion. MIT BCS has already published research in almost the same direction, and the data is more detailed and the conclusions are more refined, almost perfect."

Fan Tao: "Ji Tianhe searched for a long time and couldn't even find a direction to extend and supplement. He went back to the dormitory and fell asleep for two days and two nights in anger. He came to the Laboratory today, but he's just sitting there in a daze."

Song He clicked his tongue inwardly.

Ji Tianhe's team has absolutely solid strength. After all, Tan Xi has been whipping them hard for so many years. Although the process is painful, the progress is real.

It's just that this time they were too unlucky. The research direction they chose collided with others. It would be fine if it was just a collision, but the other side is ahead in progress, and it's even MIT BCS, so there's nothing they can do.

What is MIT BCS? The Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at MIT, which houses the famous McGovern Institute for Brain Research.

Currently, there are a total of four McGovern Institutes for Brain Research in the world, located in MIT, Tsinghua and Peking University, and Beijing Normal University. Song He has read a lot of Brain Science papers they have published, and they do have something, at least not something that Ji Tianhe's team can currently compare to.

Fan Tao: "Professor Lu Chengen's situation is a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King Temple."

Song He: "What do you mean?"

Fan Tao: "He wanted to use the Short Sleep Pill for research, but the Chenghuang Company's R&D team started at the same time and completed all the research he wanted to do at the speed of light, publishing many Top Journal Major Sub-Journal articles. Professor Lu is very helpless."

Song He couldn't help but laugh. It was indeed friendly fire.

Thinking about it, this matter is quite subtle. The technical backbone of the Chenghuang Company's R&D team was diverted from Tan Xi's team at the time. Basically, all the manpower who did not follow Ji Tianhe went to Chenghuang to settle down.

So what now? Ji Tianhe's team has suffered a loss, but the Chenghuang team is advancing triumphantly!

Fan Tao: "In short, it's a complete defeat! Our team is calling for you, everyone is looking forward to your return!"

Song He: "Don't even think about it, I can't go back in a short time."

Fan Tao: "Don't! Come back, come back, everyone misses you, the Laboratory cannot be without you for a day!"

Song He: "At most, I can assign you a research direction and give you some clues."

Fan Tao: "Okay, okay! Tell us!"

He recalled the content on the Black Technology Blueprint fragment just now and typed a long message:

"Last year, we used a lot of E. coli-modified Engineered Bacteria at Jinghai University, right?"

"Do you remember my research and development process at that time? Through appropriate extreme environments, we induced the Engineered Bacteria to mutate and evolve, with the dominant species replacing the inferior species, gradually covering the entire population, and forming a new generation of Engineered Bacteria!"

"What does this process foreshadow? Bacteria may be able to collect and store information from the surrounding environment! What similar research can be confirmed in the Academic community? The coordinated movement of bacteria on solid surfaces will improve reproductive performance!"

"So, I suggest you do experiments on bacterial memory, explore the patterns of memory generation, and how long it can last for generations."

Fan Tao: "Can it really work?"

Song He: "Yes, listen to me, you can't go wrong. I also have a strong feeling that the strength of bacterial memory is related to iron."

Fan Tao: "Iron?"

Song He: "That's right, first start by studying the effect of iron on bacterial memory, and see if you can get results."

Fan Tao: "Boss, why are you so sure that it's related to iron? Did you observe something in your previous experiments?"

Song He: "Wise deduction! Bacteria with low iron content are good at reproducing in groups, and bacteria with high iron content are good at forming Biofilm. Biofilm-covered bacteria full of mucus will gather together to resist Antibiotics, this is one!"

Song He: "Before the Great Oxidation Event occurred on Earth, many ancient bacteria relied on iron to complete work similar to oxygen. Evolution will inevitably leave remnants, this is two!"

Song He: "What you have to do is a Single-Cell Swarm Experiment, I won't go into details about the specific process, explore it yourself."

Fan Tao: "Okay, then we'll give it a try!"

Song He put down his phone comfortably. It's good to have a Scientific Research Team. He doesn't have to study the Black Technology Blueprint fragments himself, he can hand them over to his subordinates.

Relying on the clues provided by the Black Technology Blueprint fragments, it's only a matter of time before research results come out. If there are no accidents, the team will soon be able to complete a Top Journal study!

This kind of independently completed research can hone team tacit understanding, increase confidence, and also awaken their loyalty and dependence on the boss, after all, the research direction was given by Song He.

Win-win! Win-win!

Song He tapped the keyboard, waking up the screen saver on his computer. He opened the City Road Network Generator and continued working.

During the long flight, he had been completely focused on working on the computer, his stamina like that of an iron man.

On one hand, young people are just physically strong. On the other hand, he was also a veteran of scientific research. He had experienced countless high-intensity research battles, and his physical strength had been trained to some extent.

As the scale of the road network continued to expand, upgrade prompts popped up from time to time.

[Detected progress in Mathematics, upgraded from Platinum Level 83 to Platinum Level 84!]

[Detected progress in Mathematics, upgraded from Platinum Level 84 to Platinum Level 85!]

By the time he could see Yemo City from the airplane window, the computer in front of him was as hot as a burning coal.

The scale of the road network had expanded to 6,900 intersections!

His Mathematics level was fixed at Level 86, still 14 levels away from breaking through. At this rate, it wouldn't be long.

It was foreseeable that breaking through from Platinum to Grandmaster would probably be a very painful tribulation!

On the small tray table, his phone vibrated gently.

An Yulong: "Almost back?"

Song He quickly replied, "The plane just arrived in Yemo City, landing soon!"

An Yulong: "Come to my office in an hour, we need to get to work."

"Understood!" Song He replied crisply.

An hour later.

Song He, carrying his computer bag, stood at the office door and knocked cautiously. Only when he heard a "Come in" from inside did he push the door open.

In the few days since he'd been here, his teacher's office had become even more cluttered, almost completely turned into a library. Mountains of books and materials, white and yellow papers, were piled up like towering peaks.

If a few termites that eat paper were let in, they could probably quickly breed millions and create an entire termite empire.

An Yulong was still wearing his cotton pants and jacket, his expressionless goat face exuding the aura of a strong person as he sat steadily at his desk, engrossed in writing.

To the side of the desk, there was also a black figure, none other than Ye Qian, waiting quietly and cautiously.

Where's Ye Jin? Oh, he failed the exam before, so he's not qualified to come here at the moment.

"Did you both bring your computers?" An Yulong put down his work.

"Yes!" Song He and Ye Qian said in unison.

"Take them out and show me your current level, how many intersections can you handle at most," An Yulong said. "Song He has been busy these past few days, so his progress must be a bit behind. Ye Qian, you go first!"
