Although he knew that he would definitely win an award at this science and technology award conference, Xu Chuan had no idea about the country's highest science and technology award.
Because this award is actually mainly prepared for applied scientific and technological achievements, and its main scientific achievements are basically theoretical at present.
Although both the Nuclear Energy Research Institute and the Chuanhai Materials Research Institute have produced preliminary results, and their value will be enough to win the highest science and technology award after it is disclosed, it is still not enough at present.
What he is looking forward to more is the National Natural Science Award.
The National Natural Science Award is awarded to scientific and technological workers who have made significant contributions to basic research in mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, earth science, life science, etc., as well as information, materials, engineering technology and other fields.
This award is not awarded to organizations, but only to individuals. It is divided into two levels: first prize and second prize.
And like the highest science and technology award, the first prize of the natural science award can also be vacant.
This means that if there are no outstanding results that year, the first prize will not be awarded.
Rather, it is the purpose of the Science and Technology Awards Conference.
...
As the old man stood up on the stage, this year's highest science and technology award was also settled.
This year’s winners are Academician Liu Yongtan and Academician Qian Hu.
The former has long been committed to the teaching and research of electronic engineering, especially the research on new radar systems and signal processing technologies. He is the founder of China's new radar theoretical system for sea exploration.
The latter has been engaged in the teaching and scientific research of protective engineering and underground engineering for a long time, solving many difficult calculation and design problems such as orifice protection, and taking the lead in applying operations research and systems engineering methods to the field of protective engineering.
As the two winners came on stage, the scholars present gave them warm and respectful applause.
For everyone present, no matter who wins the award, they are worthy of their respect. These scholars who have dedicated their lives to the country have made great contributions to the country no matter what.
...
After the two highest science and technology awards were awarded, under the eyes of everyone's expectations, the next award was the National Natural Science Award.
Compared with the highest science and technology award, the importance of the natural science award is undoubtedly weaker.
But it is an award that young scholars can win. Of course, the premise is that you must make great contributions in the field of natural sciences.
"Mathematics is the foundation of all natural subjects and the most important component of natural subjects. From zero to one, from negative numbers to positive numbers, all the secrets are buried in those strings of wonderful numbers. Modern technology, almost all
The major discoveries are all related to the development and progress of mathematics..."
"In the field of mathematics, from the Weyl-Berry conjecture to the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem, from the Hodge standard conjecture to the Xu-Hodge theorem, he has injected a lot of energy into the mathematics of China and the world.
The new knowledge has contributed to the treasure house of human scientific knowledge and brought endless glory."
"The first winner of the first prize in natural science is: Professor Xu Chuan!"
As soon as the words fell, fierce applause erupted in the venue.
Xu Chuan stood up with a smile and walked towards the stage.
This time, everyone's eyes in the auditorium fell on him.
After winning the Nobel and Fields Medals, no one would doubt the true strength of this young man.
As for the issues of age and qualifications, some old die-hards may have some objections.
For example, Professor Tian Gang from Yanda University couldn't help but frown when he heard this name.
No matter from the age or the relationship between Yanda and the other party, it is not a good thing for the other party to win the first prize in natural science.
More importantly, he is also one of the contenders for this award, and has been a candidate for several years.
As time goes by, and every year he gets older, his hope of winning this award becomes smaller and smaller with each passing year.
After all, when it comes to scientific research results, he does not have any scientific research results that shocked the world. Those mathematical results he made when he was young are acceptable in China, but when it comes to the world, they are not worth mentioning by many people.
and.
Not to mention the seven millennium problems like the Hodge conjecture, world-class conjectures like the Weyl-berry conjecture, and even problems at the level of the weak Weyl-berry conjecture, he has never solved them.
Originally, after being elected as a member of the Executive Committee of the International Mathematical Union this year, he had a great chance of receiving this medal.
But now it seems that hope is getting slimmer. In other words, there is no hope for this year.
Although there are two first-class prizes in natural sciences each year, the natural science prizes are almost never awarded in the same field in the same year.
To say that he is convinced of the other party's achievements, he is also convinced.
Not to mention anything else, the proof of Hodge's conjecture alone was enough to render him speechless.
However, the other party's age is too young.
In his opinion, there is absolutely no need to award the first prize in natural science to him at this time. It would be better to wait a few years until the other person is in his thirties or forties.
As for the awards during this period, of course they are awarded to those in need.
He is not the only one, there are also some people who hold this idea in the General Assembly Hall today.
After all, it is really incredible to award the National Natural Science Award to a young man who is not yet 21 years old.
You know, those who have won this award in the past are basically over forty years old.
Of course, despite these people's complaints, who is awarded this award is not determined by their will.
In the face of the additions of the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize, even Tian Gang, a leading figure in the Department of Mathematics at Peking University, seems so inconspicuous.
...
On the stage, as the applause stopped, the old man who announced the awards put down the microphone in his hand and looked at Xu Chuan, who was slowly walking on stage, with a kind smile on his face.
"Congratulations, Professor Xu."
On the stage, the old man picked up the gold and red medal from the tray in the hands of the ceremonial staff around him.
"Thank you." Xu Chuan smiled and bowed slightly so that the old man in front of him could put the medal on him.
The old man smiled and said: "You deserve this. Thank you for the honor and contribution you have brought to the country. I also hope that this encouragement can help you go further on the academic road."
Xu Chuan nodded solemnly and took the big red certificate from the other party's hand with both hands.
The old man smiled and patted his shoulder, and continued: "In science, the motherland may not be able to help you much, but don't be afraid, have the courage to do what you think is worth doing, we have always
Behind you."
After speaking, he stood next to Xu Chuan and faced the people in the auditorium with him.
At this moment, Xu Chuan suddenly felt that the medal on his chest and the certificate in his hand felt heavy. They brought not only glory, but also pressure, mission, and responsibility.
...
On the other side, Jinling is far away kilometers away.
On the NTU campus, in the office of President Liu Gaojun, Rong Zhizhuan, dean and vice president of the School of Mathematics, watched the live broadcast on TV and sighed.
"How many years has it been?"
Opposite me, Liu Gaojun thought for a while and said, "It's less than five years ago. I still remember what it was like when I went to his house for the first time."
Rong Zhizhuan smiled, and then sighed: "Yes, in less than five years."
"Although I was very optimistic about him at the beginning and thought he could carve out his own path in the mathematics world, who could have imagined that in less than five years he would have achieved what he has now."
After a pause, he continued: "The Crafford Prize in Mathematics and Astronomy, the Fields Medal, the Nobel Prize in Physics, the first prize in the National Natural Science Award..."
"Each of them is an honor that ordinary people would be hard-pressed to touch in their lifetime, or even look at, but this kid has obtained them all in five years."
"Would you have imagined this happening five years ago?"
Liu Gaojun shook his head and said: "It's impossible, I wouldn't dare to do this in my wildest dreams."
Hearing this, Rong Zhizhuan grinned and said, "Yes, I would never dare to think like this in my wildest dreams. This is a great thing for us. But it may not be the case for him."
Liu Gaojun asked: "How to say?"
"As beautiful as a tree is in the forest, the wind will destroy it. This guy has achieved such a high honor at such a young age. I don't know how many people will be staring at him in the future."
"Once he makes a mistake, I'm afraid he will be criticized by countless people. He is still young and may not be able to handle these things well."
Faced with Rong Zhizhuan's worries, Liu Gaojun smiled and shook his head, saying: "You are overthinking."
"If it were other young scholars, your worries would not be unreasonable, but for him, these worries are completely unnecessary."
"On the one hand, given his current status, these things will have no impact at all."
"If a tree is beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy it; if the behavior is higher than others, the public will reject it. This is just for ordinary scholars."
"For a great scholar like him who is in his early twenties, has already won all the top awards, and will definitely leave his name in history and become a name on textbooks, these are nothing at all."
"on the other hand....."
After a pause, Liu Gaojun looked at Rong Zhizhuan with a smile, and then said: "When have you ever seen him look like a young man?"
Hearing this, Rong Zhizhuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "You are right. I have never seen his younger side since I met him."
"If I hadn't known his true age and been in contact with him for a long time, I would have thought that there was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties hidden under that young face."
...
At the same time, not far away at the Sichuan-Hai Materials Research Institute near Purple Mountain, the mood was much more intense.
Watching the live video on their mobile phones, the doctoral students and master's students in the institute kept shouting in surprise.
"The boss is awesome! The first prize of the National Natural Science Award is amazing!"
"What's so strange? I would be surprised if it wasn't the first prize. After all, our boss is a giant who won the Nobel Prize."
"It's different. To be honest, given the environment in our country, can you imagine that the National Natural Science Award, which represents the highest honor, can be given to a twenty-year-old person?"
"By the way, our boss has won the Natural Science Award. Can he be elected as an academician next year? I remember that several people who won this award were elected as academicians the next year."
"Is there hope?"
"I don't know, the competition for academicians in China is very fierce, right? But it shouldn't be a problem for Nobel Prize winners, right?"
"Not necessarily. Professor Tu won the Nobel Prize before and was not elected as an academician."
"Whatever, we are really going to make it anyway. If we follow the God of Sichuan, we will definitely enjoy the food and drink."
...
At the same time, Xujiacun.
Xu's father, Xu's mother, and some fellow villagers and friends from Xujiacun, who had already received the news, were squatting in front of the TV.
When they heard the name Xu Chuan and saw the figure on the screen, everyone became excited.
"It's Kawako, Kawako is on stage to receive the award!"
"This kid is promising."
"Guangzong Yaozu, our Xujiacun also has scientists."
Father Xu stared at the figure on the TV screen. When he saw Xu Chuan standing together with the old man he had often seen on TV before, his eyes turned red unconsciously, and his face was filled with pride and pride.
With.
For parents, this is probably the greatest pride.
...
With the live broadcast of Yangma, plus the reports of major media.
Not surprisingly, Xu Chuan once again became a hot search topic.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Following the Nobel Prize, top scholar Professor Xu Chuan won the grand prize again!"
"Shocked! The highest award in our country is actually awarded to a young man in his 10s and 20s!"
"Geniuses in academia---learning methods you don't know!"
"From the top scorer in the college entrance examination to the world's top scientist, it only took him five years to win the Nobel Prize!"
"......."
Just like winning the Nobel Prize, the news became a hot topic on the day it was awarded at the National Science and Technology Awards Conference.
Xu Chuan is the only one to win the first prize of the National Natural Science Award this year, which naturally attracted the attention of many netizens.
[Amazing, the 21-year-old first prize in the National Natural Science Award, a true god!]
[Niubi is just one word, I won’t say it twice!]
【Sichuan God!】
[Other people are twenty-one years old and are soft on winning the grand prize. Mine is twenty-one years old. It is Saturday and I will get up again in the afternoon! 】
【Hahahahahaha. How are you spying on me?】
[It’s really courageous to award the highest award to him. You have to remember that he is only twenty years old. If he achieves anything in his future career, what other awards can be given? 】
[So do you think he doesn’t deserve this award? 】
[No, I just think he is too young, maybe he can wait a few more years before posting. 】
[Oh, it is your garbage ideas that have caused so many talents in our country to flow to foreign countries. A top scholar who has won the Nobel Prize and the Fields Medal has no awards at home. Who is the loser?
heart of?】
[It is true that excellent talents cannot be retained, and I don’t know when this system will be changed, e=(′o｀*))) Alas. 】
[Shh! Stop talking~Be careful of the water meter being checked.]
