Scholar’s Advanced Technological System
Chapter 399: National Banquet
The prize was just awarded yesterday, and the next day the news screen was brushed.
"Renowned Scholar Ark Won First Prize Scholar in National Natural Science!
Youngest Natural Science First Prize Winner!
"Shocked, this First Prize in Natural Science was awarded to three people! One of them is a young man as young as 24!
"The Highest Honor of Chinese Academia - The First Prize in Natural Science You Don't Know.
……
As with the last Crawford Prize, the Ark won the first prize in natural sciences and received extraordinary attention.
Whether the official media intends to create a god, whether it is to enhance the sense of belonging in his heart with a sense of honor, in short, the paving of stories made the name "Ark” burn again.
In addition to the achievements of the Ark, many people are talking about the age of the winner.
The view was expressed that this was an expression of "undiminished talent" and that adequate attention should be paid to those in a position to do so, and the decision of the Awards Committee was commendable.
Of course, where there is agreement, there is a voice of opposition.
Others felt that such a decision was a little too hasty, and it was a bit of a rush to award the glory of the First Prize in Natural Science to a young man under forty after all.
Similar discussions take place not only on the Internet, but also in the circles of universities and universities.
The cafeteria of an institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Two researchers, who had just received their Ph.D. degrees, had lunch with each other and were discussing the news that had inspired domestic academia.
“Did you hear that? Three first prizes in natural sciences were awarded at the Science Prize Congress. ”
“I've heard that this is the first time since the eighties, and it's hard to estimate a jury. There were no awards in previous years. There were three piles this year. There were still many cowmen.” Speaking of which, the researcher with glasses couldn't help but be emotional.
The slightly fat researcher lifted his eyelids and glanced at him.
“You think this is a good thing? ”
“Why isn't it good? Our country is getting stronger and more influential in international academia, can that be a bad thing? ”
The slightly fat researcher argued, "But isn't he a professor in Princeton? You think you're one of them? ”
The researcher with glasses shook his head with a smile as he clamped a piece of meat back into his bowl and said softly.
“The principles for the award of the National Prize for Natural Sciences are clear. The prize is awarded to citizens of the People's Republic of China. The award criteria are a major achievement. He has never renounced the nationality of the People's Republic of China. Why can't he receive the prize? Deligne Pierre works at the Princeton Institute of Higher Studies and is not the same as the king of Belgium? You see, the problem only sees the surface, or you don't see the essence! ”
The slightly fat researcher muttered: “How do you know they won't come back? ”
When I heard that, the researcher with the glasses was happy.
“Let me tell you something, with his ability, with that idea, it's easy to get a green card to any country in the world. But he is still holding a Chinese identity card and using his Chinese passport is enough to make his position clear. Compared to the heart of boxing in his mouth, his body honestly took the green card to the academician to select a professor for the last second, so high that he didn't know where it was. ”
“His glory is the glory of China, and his glory is the glory of China's academic community. You have time to find bones in someone else's eggs, so why don't you take this time to dry something else. ”
The slightly fat researcher frowned and couldn't help but think: “But his age...”
The glasses researcher laughed and said, "What's wrong with age? Besides, it's a good thing for us young people! The country has stated that age is never a problem as long as you are good enough. I said," Bullshit. "Stock, it looks a little crooked. ”
The slightly fat researcher smiled and stopped talking.
That's true...
But the problem is, we're not good enough.
Acid is the basic operation, right?
……
The award was followed by photographs, which were busy until a later date.
The banquet was held the following evening.
Unlike the Stockholm Blue Hall banquet, the evening is more classic and solemn in an eastern way.
And this is probably the first time that the Ark has ever seen, in the true sense, a full Chinese seat.
The dishes are varied in colour. Each dish is divided into categories. Each dish has its own discipline and its own characteristics. The only regret is that the Ark didn't have time to try all the dishes.
As the winner of the First Prize in Natural Sciences, it was natural that the General Assembly would receive the same level of attention after it.
The Ark basically responded politely to scholars who volunteered to marry themselves.
Among the guests he talked to, besides the most famous scholars in the country, there are naturally many Li Academicians and Tang Academicians who also won the First Prize in Natural Science.
Ark didn't know much about agronomy, so he and Academician Li simply chatted and encouraged each other on the road to science.
As for Tang Ben Zhong, because the research is on the direction of polymers, there are a lot of common topics to talk about with the Ark...
“What interesting subject has Professor Lu been studying lately? ”
The ark laughed: “Are you asking about the direction of mathematics or the direction of materials? ”
Tang Ben Zhong was slightly stunned and asked with some surprise: "Research mathematics and materials at the same time? You can still fight on two lines? ”
Generally speaking, two different directions of research at the same time are surprising enough. Two interdisciplinary studies at the same time were, in his view, unheard of.
Seeing the surprised look on Tang Yard's face, Ark embarrassed himself and laughed: “It's not a two-line battle. Materials are mainly researched by my research team in Silicon Valley and Jinling, and also collaborated with the research team at MIT. The relevant paper has been submitted to Nature, and as for the specific content, which I am not comfortable disclosing before it is published under the agreement, I can only say that it relates to superconducting material. ”
Tang Ha Ha smiled and touched the ark: “Superconducting material? Then I have to look forward to the most recent issue of Nature! ”
……
After the national banquet, the ark boarded a big run that stopped at the door.
Driver Wang Peng skillfully started the car and drove out of the parking lot.
On the highway, the cold wind blows through the windows, and the ark feels a little sober.
Looking at Wang Peng, who was driving, he said randomly.
“Have you eaten? ”
Wang Peng: “Not yet, I intend to eat it later. ”
The Ark thought about it and went on to say, "Yes, let me ask you something. ”
Wang Peng: “Ask. ”
Ark: “When does the hotel room expire? ”
When he heard the question, Wang Peng, with the steering wheel, laughed: “If Professor Lu wants to live, it's no problem to stay. ”
“That's no good. It's too much trouble for your work.” The ark shook its head, "I'll be back in the golden mausoleum tomorrow, so please help me out of that room. ”
Wang Peng smiled and just said "yes”. He didn't say much.
Actually, that room tells Ben that there is no check-out.
Because the hotel itself is not open to the public. Generally, only important national guests, or former cadres with special status, are eligible for such treatment.
Without a certain status, you can't live even if you have money...
Upon returning to the hotel, the ark hung its formal clothes on the hanger, went to take a shower, wiped its hair dry, and then went to lie down by the bed.
After tonight's banquet, his business here in Beijing is over.
At the same time, with the National Prize for Natural Sciences and the successful completion of the reward task, he should have received the reward for the task yesterday, as he was too busy delaying the matter.
Nothing to say today can be delayed.
With a silent voice in his heart, he sank his consciousness into a pure white system space and quickly walked to the semi-transparent holographic screen, where the ark saw the familiar line from the center of the screen as he wished.
Congratulations host, you have completed the reward task!
