The atmosphere in the venue fell silent for a while.
Li Zhen couldn't give a definite answer.
In fact, compared with the foundation of hybrid rice and bacteriology, it seems that the research on lithium is not that important.
But in fact, there is a layer of political demand that no one can explain.
Because the researchers of lithium are Siamese. He is also the only person in this Jiuzhou Science and Technology Award who has been shortlisted for the nomination award based on his scientific research.
Li Zhen does not want the Kyushu Science and Technology Award to become an award for new Kyushu people. This award can only have greater influence if it is expanded to the world. You can't be happy alone, you have to be happy with everyone to be able to last long.
Therefore, no matter what, Siam’s lithium element research cannot be dismissed.
And hybrid rice cannot be dismissed. It is almost certain that this will be the winner of this year's Kyushu Science and Technology Award for Chemistry.
Lin Guofu's bacteriology, it was fine not to mention it before, but now that it was brought up, Li Zhen remembered it. That definitely can't be brushed off.
Because compared to others, although Lin Guofu's research results are not significant, they are only about penicillin and cellular bacteria. Penicillin is not of much use to the people of New Kyushu. After all, only a few people get pneumonia, and there are not many people who get sick at all. And he only discovered penicillium and could not purify penicillin.
But he did create a discipline of bacteriology for biochemistry. And laid the foundation for the new and vast discipline of bacteriology. Meaning is greater than reality.
Ge Qingping frowned and said: "Actually, it's what I thought. This year we will make an exception and create three undetermined quotas for the Chemistry Award."
Li Zhen said in embarrassment: "But there are only two places for other categories. If there are three places for chemistry, even if it is an exception, researchers in other subjects will inevitably feel unhappy and feel that this is unfair."
Ge Qingping is also in a dilemma. The reason is the same. It was agreed in advance that there were two places, but now only chemistry has become three. So what would other scientists think
Jia Liping suddenly spoke: "Actually, Master Li, there is no need to be embarrassed. Three are just three, and the principle is still the same. But, it depends on how you say it."
"What's the meaning?"
Everyone said in unison.
Jia Liping smiled and said: "If it is announced to the outside world, the Kyushu Academy of Sciences will be in a difficult position, and it is difficult to decide which one to eliminate. This is definitely wrong, and will reduce our prestige and authority. Others think too much about it. But to put it another way, that is not the case. Same."
"How to say?"
Jia Liping said: "We announced to the outside world that this year is a blowout year for chemistry. Chemistry researchers around the world have made great progress and improvements to varying degrees this year. Chemistry research around the world has reached a new level. Chemistry applicants There are many, and their value exceeds that of other disciplines. Therefore, this year, three scientists are selected as an exception and shortlisted for the award pending area."
Li Zhen frowned: "This statement... is not appropriate."
Jia Liping said: "I haven't finished yet."
"Stop being pretentious and hurry up."
Jia Liping said quickly: "Then I would like to add: I hope that researchers in other disciplines will work hard and hope that the next scientific discipline that will see a spurt in progress will be physics or mathematics. When that day comes, physics and mathematics will naturally make progress." It became difficult for us to make a choice, and there were three exceptions."
Li Zhen's eyes lit up: "Continue."
Jia Liping added: "In other words, it will not make other people feel depressed and rejected. Instead, it will give everyone a feeling of a scientific explosion. In such an environment, they will not doubt the authority of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, but will only A competitive mentality emerges at the macro level.”
Li Zhen laughed loudly: "You still have a bright mind."
Ge Qingping also smiled and praised: "Xiao Jia is indeed lively."
Jia Liping smiled shyly and said, "I'm just good at exploring these trails."
"Then it's settled. Liping, go and do it. This year there are only three finalists for the Chemistry Award. Five nominations."
"Yes, Master Li."
“…”
After solving the dilemma in the chemistry department, Li Zhen and others reviewed all the identified scientists and scientific research projects. Be foolproof.
Li Zhen made the final summary:
"In the Department of Mathematics, there are two places for the final award to be determined. One is Chen Jingrun, an eighteen-year-old from Imperial College who discovered the law of bounded functions. The other is a professor of the Department of Mathematics at Fuxing University who proposed the indefinite integral in calculus the concept of."
Hou Qiang nodded: "Yes, after repeated confirmation and verification. These two advanced mathematical concepts have a great influence on the current mathematics world."
Li Zhen nodded, and then said: "There are three places to be determined for the award in the chemical industry. The first is Yuan Bing's research on the rules of hybrid rice and the idea of solving the problem of world grain production. The second is Lin Guofu's research on white Cells, as well as the effects of Penicillium, E. coli, and platelets on the human body, pioneered bacteriology. The third was Somprashan from Siam, who proposed the lithium element and proposed the idea of lithium batteries."
Everyone was stunned.
After giving Li Zhen a deep look, Ding Zhenzhen hurriedly took notes and wrote down all the original words Li Zhen said on paper.
This is very meaningful.
When talking about math prizes, it means "one is and the other is."
When it comes to the chemistry prize, it is said, "The first is yes, the second is yes, and the third is yes."
These different terms already represent Li Zhen's thoughts.
There is no secret operation here, but some things are better not to be said openly.
Everyone knows that this year’s Chemistry Prize winner must be Yuan Bing. But this cannot be said in advance. Just be aware of it.
This is not because Yuan Bing is deeply loved by Li Zhen, but simply because Yuan Bing's research findings are extremely landmark. His research, in the next 10,000 years, there will be tens of millions, hundreds of millions of records all over the world, and even no one will die of hunger from now on.
That's the meaning.
Scientific awards are not based on who is the most advanced, but what matters most is actually what kind of contribution they have made to all mankind. It has such an impact on society.
The purpose of the existence of science is not for war, but to serve the people. The purpose of its existence and advancement is only to make human life better. Make this world a better place.
Therefore, Yuan Bing was appointed by Li Zhen to win the award in advance, and no one would object. No one would even think there was anything wrong with it, because even Somphasan and Lin Guofu felt from the bottom of their hearts that it would be best for hybrid rice to win the award.
After all, solving hunger is the top priority today. Don't blind your eyes with a single leaf, just see how good Laoshan is and how good Dongzhou is...
Li Zhen paused and then said: "There are two pending lists for the physics award. One is Mr. Jia's photo machine. The other is the latest research of the School of Electromagnetics this year, the invention of three-phase AC motors, and DC motors and AC motors in different fields. The application idea inside. Is there any problem?"
Several people shook their heads: "No problem."
Li Zhen said: "Quickly print out these documents and materials. They will be distributed to the guests participating in the Jiuzhou Science and Technology Award later, so that they know what they are doing. Don't wait until tomorrow's opening without knowing the meaning of various inventions."
"clear."
