The United States has always unilaterally announced resolutions without taking into account the feelings of others.

It is true that the head of the mathematics department at Princeton is a very demanding position, but Shen Qi is unable to hold this position for the time being.

After a polite refusal, Shen Qi did not agree to Director Knox's recommendation after all.

After leaving the math building, Zhou Yu'an said to Shen Qi: "I can see that they want to keep you in the United States." ”

Unlike honorary professors and foreign academicians, the head of the Department of Mathematics is based in Princeton for the duration of his term.

Of course, Shen Qi also knew this rule, so he politely declined the invitation to be the head of the mathematics department of the general university.

"Lao Zhou, it's really strong, you two will carry out academic exchanges with them as planned. ”

After Shen Qi finished his explanation, he went to Washington, D.C., to receive a foreign academician certificate from the American Academy of Sciences, and gave a speech.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, I had no intention of speaking because I felt that I was just one of thousands of ordinary people, and that there was nothing particularly worthy of praise on stage. ”

"Since I'm here, I'll talk about my shallow understanding of science. ”

"During my studies at Princeton, I stayed in front of a statue of Albert Einstein, whose pedestal was inscribed with the words: Imagination is more important than knowledge. ”

"I very much agree with Albert Einstein's famous statement that imagination is a human ability that seems to belong only to God. Humans are not the strongest species, they can't fly or dive to the bottom of the ocean, but humans can dominate the planet because we have the imagination to be the first to create in our brains things that don't exist in reality. ”

"A good scientist must have a good imagination, and of course, it is also the responsibility of a scientist to realize the surreal existence created by imagination. ”

"Today, the world we live in is becoming more and more like science fiction. Decades ago, black technology, now become a regular technology. The surreal beings imagined in science fiction have become reality one by one. ”

This puts a higher demand on the imagination of scientists, and if the sea of stars that once promised cannot be realized, then life will tend to be dull. ”

"Well, that's all I want to say, thank you. ”

Shen Qi's speech at the American Academy of Sciences caused heated discussions, and people summarized his scientific thoughts, that is, scientists should stand at the height of the sea of stars and make life full of anticipation and fun.

After leaving the National Academy of Sciences, Shen Qi went to the American Chemical Society and continued to give lectures.

"Studies have shown that glycogen synthase kinase-3β is widely distributed in the human brain and is a target associated with a variety of diseases. Therefore, the research of glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibitors, especially non-ATP-competitive inhibitors, has better prospects for development and application. ”

"In line with this research purpose, we have designed and synthesized a new type of benzothiazinone compounds in our Yanda laboratory, and in the synthesis process, we have innovatively used a new type of molecular hybridization reaction and achieved good results. ”

“…… Based on the results of the study, we found that this novel compound can be used in the treatment of type II diabetes, and follow-up testing and research and development work are still advancing. That's it for my report, thank you. ”

At the end of Shen Qi's chemistry report, the American Chemical Society highly affirmed the research results of Shen Qi's team.

The president of the American Chemical Society announced: "We propose that the new organic reaction innovated by Shen Qi's team be named Shen Qi reaction. At the same time, Mr. Shen Qi was awarded the Adams Prize in Chemistry. ”

Founded in 1959 and awarded by the American Chemical Society, the Adams Prize in Chemistry is an internationally important award for chemists who have made outstanding contributions to the field of organic chemistry.

Shen Qi, who won awards in the fields of mathematics and physics, finally won a chemistry award with the research of C01C-2 and the new reactions invented in the research process.

System: "New Achievement!" The host won the Adams Prize in Chemistry and awarded 2 million points. The balance 51272567 points for Xueba, please confirm with the host. ”

"The conditions for advancing to level 13 in chemistry have been met, please confirm with the host. ”

There are two conditions for the promotion of Chemistry 12 to 13.

1. 4,000,000 points or experience points,

2. Won an international chemistry award.

Shen Qi had met the two conditions for a top master to upgrade to level 13 in chemistry, and he promoted chemistry to level 13.

System: "Congratulations to the host for advancing to level 13 in chemistry! The host's imagination, logical deduction, judgment, and insight in the field of chemistry have been significantly improved. ”

"The conditions for promotion to Grade 14 in Chemistry are:

1. 20,000,000 points or experience points;

2. Solve a chemical super problem, including but not limited to the development of macrocyclic compounds above eight yuan, the leap process from chemical evolution to chirality and the origin of life, etc. ”

Condition 1, in fact, Shen Qi has already met.

Condition 2 is difficult, such as octa-membered macrocyclic compounds, which are extremely difficult to obtain, and chemical reactions in this area are rarely developed, so a principle is stipulated in organic chemistry textbooks, that is, try to avoid the formation of macrocyclic compounds above eight-membered when dismantling.

Revise a chemical principle, which is many times more difficult than synthesizing a new type of compound.

Of course, it is very difficult, whether it is mathematics or physics, and now in chemistry, Shen Qi has been promoted to level 14, and the challenges he faces are extremely difficult.

Shen Qi published the research results of C01C-2 and won the Adams Award, and his research results have attracted the close attention of some pharmaceutical companies in the United States.

Shen Qi wrote in his paper that he himself made a public report, claiming that C01C-2 can treat diabetes, which is still in the stage of animal experiments.

Diabetes is a worldwide disease, and it is also a disease that is extremely troublesome and painful.

Shen Qi gave two reports in the United States, the first of which was about the stars and the sea, which was imaginative and elegant.

The second session talks about glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibitors, which is very specific and down-to-earth.

Relevant personnel from several major pharmaceutical companies in the United States, such as Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, Merck, and Eli Lilly, attended Shen Qi's report meeting at the headquarters of the American Chemical Society.

The pharmaceutical industry is different from other industries, such as mathematics, and I have never heard of mathematicians working in companies receiving the highest awards and honors.

But researchers working in pharmaceutical companies have won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry and Medicine and Physiology.

The R&D capabilities of international pharmaceutical giants are not inferior to universities or research institutes.

At the reception held by the American Chemical Society, Shen Qi had extensive conversations with American chemists and chemical R&D personnel of pharmaceutical companies.

"Professor Shen, after listening to your speech, I benefited a lot. A Chinese respectfully handed Shen Qi a business card.

Shen Qi took the business card, and the owner of the business card was Xi Zhengyu, the R&D manager of Merck Pharmaceutical.

"Manager Xi has won the award, how many years have you worked at Merck?" asked Shen Qi.
