The reason why there are still funds for the optical fiber laboratory is that the patent application fee is not a one-time payment.It’s about paying wherever you go.The initial application fee is only the registration fee for the first step.The big spenders have yet to come.
Ryder came for this too.This matter was done in his hands, so naturally he has to continue to carry it forward.
The main purpose of his coming this time is to understand how much capital is needed here, and then he can make a corresponding budget application.

"This semester, how many more results is estimated?" Philip paid considerable attention to intellectual property.
"There will be some results, but I am afraid it will not be as easy as last semester."
"Why? Are there any difficulties?"
"There are some difficulties."
"What is it? There is a place I can help, please don't be polite!"
Ryder is expected to take up a post in Ice City soon.He naturally hopes that results can always be produced here.This kind of result doesn't require him to do anything, so it does.
"There are two main reasons. One is that the difficulty of the project is getting higher and higher. If you continue to do it, a cycle of good results will already take months, even half a year." The inspection profession is not a real optics. profession.The current research direction has gradually deviated from the subject of detection, and it feels a little unsustainable.
"Another one is that the pressure of competition is increasing. We have appeared here twice, and the topic is halfway through, but other people's papers have been published in advance." The school has its own optics major and monographs on lasers. And grating and other fields.They also published a paper on optical fiber measurement some time ago.Not to mention other schools.
Due to optical fiber communication, the conditions for optical fiber inspection have matured.In the past, other people ignored this field. When everyone noticed, the first-mover advantage of the University of Technology gradually disappeared.Not to mention here, testing professionals, in the field of optical fiber, are still non-professional players.

"So..."
Ryder thought for a while, but couldn't think of any suggestions.If scientific research were all so easy, Philip would not have gone so far across half the earth and set up a separate laboratory in Ice City.
"Can we increase our strength? For example, we can add more equipment. I can apply to the headquarters to let them donate a few more instruments."
Ryder thought for a long time, but didn't want to give up like this.His role is to solve the problem.Seeing the problem, inaction is not justified.
"Thank you so much, you decide on your side and I will contact the school here. More equipment is always helpful."
"In addition, can you also add more people here? It's only a few months. If the results decline too fast, my face won't look good!"
"Adding more people, I am afraid it will be difficult. Our major is actually not big. In this project, almost half of the scientific research force in the major has been invested. If you add more people, the daily teaching work will be affected."
Niu Pin thought for a while, and felt that it would not be good to refuse directly.
"However, we have no power here, but the school still has it."
————————
"Oh? What do you say?"
"This project, if the optics major is brought in to study together, it may be of greater help." Niu Pin also thought about this idea for a long time.
The optical professional has contacted him several times, hoping to share the resources here.The optics major is also a disadvantaged direction in the University of Technology. There is not even an undergraduate major. In the classification of the school, it is classified as a pure science major!
The University of Technology is relatively weak in the fields of optics and electricity.From the perspective of a comprehensive university, there are many lame fields.
"Really? Then I'll talk to Principal Li, and it just so happens that I want to see him."
The reason why Philip came first is that he has gone some ways.
"Okay! It's easy for you to show up. It's not convenient for me to do this."
"Understood, thanks a lot."
Ryder understood Niu Pin's concerns. After this period of contact, the two people had reached a tacit understanding.
"You're welcome. Our goal is to do things well."
Niu Pin said a few nonsense that was not wrong.

"By the way, don't you still have students in a class? If they are added in, will it be effective?"
"I'm afraid it's useless. They just entered school after all. During this time, they almost all withdrew. The more important reason is their own ability. New students are still weak.
"Okay. You are an expert, I listen to you."
Ryder just said casually, and after a few people talked about gossip, they left.
"..."
Niu Pin delivered to the door, thinking of a project the students were working on, he hesitated.
"Anything else?"
"No, I remembered something else temporarily. That's it! When you come next time, we will find a chance to get together."
"Okay. Please bring one for your sister-in-law and niece!"
