The situation of another project applied by Zhao Yi was completely different.
At the director's office of the Biomedical Research Institute, Zhao Yi handed over the project application report to the director, Yan Xuelin.
After carefully reading the report, Yan Xuelin raised his head in doubt, "Didn't your lab just apply for one recently?"
"Yes, but that was planned beforehand, based on ongoing projects in the institute. However, I am intending to do a formal project," Zhao Yi said.
"This is a big project!"
"It's not easy to get approval for it directly," Yan Xuelin remarked, "I'd say it's very difficult. Even for you."
"Your project aims to study the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis. You understand how complex that is, don't you? Your lab has just wrapped up a project on rheumatoid arthritis."
"Mm-hmm."
Zhao Yi nodded.
He understood Yan Xuelin's point.
