After receiving the certificate from the hand of the great elder, and brushing the "national soldier" hanging on his chest with the index finger and thumb of his right hand, Liu Feng felt that in addition to the honor, it was more of that responsibility and the weight of history.

Different from the "Top Gun" medal, although the main pattern of the "National Soldier" medal is also composed of five stars, green clouds, olive branches and light lines, but behind the medal, there are two more big characters "National Soldier".

As a scientist, he never thought that one day he would be recognized by others as a "national scholar", the key is that he identifies with himself as the head of state of China who represents the entire Chinese nation!

This is the recognition of the whole nation for him!

As a son and daughter of China, Liu Feng at this moment is more and more determined in the direction he should move forward in the future......

In the fiery eyes of more than 3,000 people, he delivered an award speech.

Then the second elder took over the meeting and delivered a final concluding speech.

At this point, the commendation conference has come to an end, which can be regarded as a wish in the hearts of all scientific researchers who have spent their youth and enthusiasm for "controlled nuclear fusion".

Next, after the award meeting, Liu Feng was invited again to attend a meeting organized by the Council of Elders.

Regarding the future of the demonstration reactor project team, the next development direction of antimatter engineering, and even the decision-making and regulation of the national development strategy, the senior management needs to refer to his opinion as the chief designer.

It's just that, in addition to serving as a reference for high-level decision-making, this meeting also has a reward from the high-level for him, which, in the words of the Great Elder, is the fruit of his labor.

"Professor Liu, in the next few decades, the country will promote antimatter power generation on a large scale; your 9511 project, which has studied tens of thousands of patents, has made great contributions to this, and our presbyterian opinion is that in the future antimatter power stations, 1% of the profits will be taken out every year as your personal dividends. ”

If according to China's total power generation of about 5 trillion kilowatt-hours last year, all of which were provided by antimatter power stations, aside from the cost and taxes paid for the state, the profit will be at least 500 billion, and with the development of the country's economy in the future, the overall electricity consumption will increase steadily, and the 1% dividend will be at least 5 billion.

Although it is only 5 billion, for others, it is an astronomical amount, but for Liu Feng, it is actually not much.

Not to mention the current net profit of tens of billions of yuan per year of water treatment super materials, the profit brought to him by the current 'super cement' alone can exceed this figure, not to mention the huge profits brought by more and more material patents of Fenghua Research Institute.

Moreover, unlike Xiang Ahri Baba Ma Yun, hundreds of billions of profits need to be distributed to shareholders every year, and 90% of the shares of the entire Fenghua Group belong to Liu Feng.

His current assets, aside from those hidden riches, on the surface, he is even the richest man in China......

To be honest, if it was a few years ago, if he could earn 5 billion, he would have dreamed of waking up with a smile, but now, money is really just a number for him.

What's more, the state has invested hundreds of billions of dollars in the research of antimatter engineering, and his purpose in engaging in this project is not to make money for himself, nor to improve his reputation, but only to benefit the country and the whole society.

Now let him sit and enjoy the dividends, it doesn't feel appropriate.

Moreover, if he brazenly wants to share dividends for this thing, shouldn't the fathers who studied the "Bright Bullet Clothes Star" also want dividends?

Therefore, Liu Feng refused directly without thinking about it.

"Great Elder, as a Chinese and as a scientist, these are all things I should do. What's more, although the country's economic conditions have improved, there are more places where money needs to be used, and this 1% of the profit should be used where it needs to be used.

Professor Liu's consciousness has always been very high.

At the beginning, the old-timers of the "Bright Bullet Clothes Star" were able to selflessly dedicate themselves to the cause of socialism and righteousness, couldn't he?

But......

"No, no, no, Liu Feng, you deserve it!"

The Great Elder sighed in his heart, but he also shook his head with a firm expression.

He is naturally very happy and very relieved that Liu Feng can have such an awareness, isn't it precisely because of such a group of scientists who do not ask for personal returns that the country can gradually catch up with the development of other countries for hundreds of years in just a few decades?

Although there are still such and such shortcomings, compared with other countries of the same era, China's achievements are really dazzling and not easy.

If you want to say who is the backbone of the country and the nation, such a person is!

It's just that the current era is different from the previous era.

It should not be socialism with Chinese characteristics, and even from the perspective of the law of social and economic development, this is unfavorable to the whole country and society.

"The state does not treat its heroes badly, nor can it treat any of its heroes badly. The selfless dedication of the older generation of scientists is naturally worthy of our study and admiration, but from the perspective of the country's long-term development, this is not in line with the law of social development. ”

Speaking of this, the Great Elder paused and said earnestly,

"Xiao Liu, we are really happy and relieved that you can have such a mind and such an awareness, which proves that we are not wrong, and we can rest assured that we will hand over the antimatter project to you!

"You can't shirk this matter!"

"Great Elder, this ......" looked at the one with a determined expression on his face.

It's really strange, everyone wants to get benefits from him, but the Great Elder is good, but he has to give him benefits.

"This is really inappropriate, antimatter engineering is the result of the joint efforts of all researchers, if you have to reward it, it should be given to all personnel, not just to me!"

"Hahaha~,"

Seeing Liu Feng's resolute expression with incomprehension, at this time, the other elders suddenly burst out laughing.

The second elder turned around and glanced at the third elder beside him, and said with a smile.

"Lao Zhang, what's the matter, I'll just say that our Professor Liu will definitely refuse!"

"Zongli and the Great Elder's eyes are like torches, I am convinced. Professor Liu has great merit and is not punished, and the ancient gentleman is nothing more than that, and he really deserves to be 'unparalleled in the country'!"

Liu Feng: "......"

Several leaders talked about Liu Feng, but without exception, they all expressed their admiration for this young man's sentiments.

Seeing that Liu Feng still looked puzzled, the second elder took the initiative to explain:

"Xiao Liu, this 1% is a personal reward for you, other researchers, we will naturally not be disadvantaged, and another 4% is used as personal dividends and scientific research funds, you don't have to worry about this matter. What's more,"

Speaking of this, the second elder also looked serious,

"You should know the story of Zigong's ransom and Zilu's cow, right?"

Hearing the second elder talk about the allusion of Zigong ransom and Zilu receiving cattle, Liu Feng was shocked.

Although he studied science and engineering, he also dabbled in the knowledge of liberal arts, especially after developing the skill of "brushing books", he often even brushed a few literary and artistic works, sage classics or something when he had nothing to do;

He has also "brushed" these two allusions, from the famous "Lü's Spring and Autumn".

The story is probably that there is a law in the Lu country, the Lu people are slaves abroad, and if someone can redeem them, they can go to the treasury to reimburse the ransom. Once, Confucius's disciple Zigong (Duanmu Ci) ransomed a Lu man abroad and refused to accept state compensation after returning home. When Confucius found out, he said, "Zigong did something wrong. From now on, the people of Lu will not redeem slaves from other countries. Receiving compensation from the state will not damage your character, but if you do not receive compensation, there will be no one in Lu to redeem your compatriots who have died. ”

And once Zilu rescued a drowning man, the man thanked him for sending a cow, Zilu accepted it, and Confucius said happily: "The people of Lu will definitely have the courage to save the person who fell into the water from now on." ”

Zigong did a good deed with his own money and should have been established as a moral model, but why did Confucius criticize him instead?

His mistake was to exalt the moral standards that everyone could attain to a level that was beyond the reach of most people, so that many people were shy away from redeeming others.

Raising the standard of morality infinitely, or treating personal private morality as public morality, will only get one result, which is to embarrass morality, and let ordinary people change color when they hear morality and then go away from morality!

And the behavior of Zilu by the cow did not raise this standard.

Liu Feng's current approach is the same as the original Zigong ransom.

At the beginning, the selfless dedication of the older generation of scientists naturally deserves people's admiration and respect, but the times are different, and the conditions at the beginning are not the result of helplessness.

And now, it is a matter of course to have something to pay in return, and he does not lack such a little reward, but what about others?

After all, not everyone has such an awareness as him, let alone everyone is like him, tens of thousands of minutes per minute, and his approach hurts the enthusiasm of the entire scientific class, which is worthy of admiration, but not worthy of praise.

"I see!"

After understanding this, Liu Feng also sighed.

The so-called morality, in fact, should be something that everyone can do without harming oneself and benefiting others, and doing so by oneself seems to be 'noble', but in fact, the essence is still 'selfish' and immoral.

It's just that he understands it, but let him accept such a dividend, he always feels that it goes against his original intention, and he is even more unhappy.

After thinking about it, he decided:

"Elder, I personally feel that I really deserve this 1% dividend. So, if you have to give me dividends, set up a foundation in my name to use them as personal awards and project research funds for scientists who have made outstanding achievements in the field of science. If there is an explosives award foundation abroad, and we can also have a Liu Feng Science Award Foundation in China, maybe in the future, scientists all over the world will feel extremely honored to be able to win our 'Liu Feng Science Award' instead of the Dynamite Award. ”

To be honest, many of the world's most prestigious scientists have set up such foundations, and the Dynamite Award is one of them, but for some special reasons, it has become the most famous award in the world.

His approach is very normal at home and abroad, such as the "Yuan Longping Hybrid Rice Award Foundation", "Chern Shiingshen Mathematics Award Foundation" and so on, but no one has ever had the luxury of investing 5 billion yuan a year as a scientific award......

"Hiss~"

Hearing that Liu Feng had taken out all the money and invested it in a reward foundation, the Great Elder also gasped.

Although at the moment, it seems that this is not a lot of money, but what about a few years, a few decades from now?

This is billions, even if it is an explosives award, the annual prize money does not add up to 400 million yuan, which can only be achieved with the endorsement of Sweden.

And Liu Feng ...... To be rich is to be capricious!

"You, you, whatever!"

For Liu Feng to be so "willful", the Great Elder can't say anything, not to mention that this matter is also good for the country.

"After all, it's your personal money, and we don't care what you do. However, since you have such ambitions, our country can't hold you back, isn't it, Zongli, Xiao Liu doesn't violate the regulations of our government by doing this, right?"

The second elder was also taken aback by Liu Feng's generosity, but when he thought that Liu Feng himself was the 'richest man in China', he nodded understandingly, such a little money is really nothing to this guy.

Hearing the Great Elder ask, he smiled and responded:

"Of course, it is not violated, our government has also been encouraging the people to take the initiative to engage in this kind of public welfare activities, but there has been chaos for a period of time, so our current regulations are somewhat strict, and we must also accept the government's supervision. In this way, Xiao Liu, the matter of the Liu Feng Science Award Foundation, I will let the special personnel cooperate to help you solve the government affairs, and we don't care about other specific things, just do a good job of supervision, and you will send someone to take over yourself, how about it?"

……

In this way, the Liu Feng Science Award Foundation named after Liu Feng was newly released.

Finally, after the personal inquiry of the second elder, it was approved by the People's Bank of China and registered by the Department of Civil Affairs, and was officially established on March 15, 2014.

The purpose of the Foundation is to promote the development of science and technology for the better benefit of mankind.

A total of 7 awards have been set up in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, economics, and sociology, and the prize money for each item is directly set to 100 million yuan, which is owned by the individual winners, and an additional scientific research project fund of no more than 500 million yuan has been set up to help the winners do scientific research and development, of course, the use of the project fund must be supervised by the foundation, and the foundation will also charge 20% of the share in return for the research results.

Despite this, the individual reward of 100 million yuan and the application for scientific research funds of no more than 500 million yuan are the only ones in the world.

Just like the world's first gimmicks such as Dubai's Burj Khalifa and Burj Al Arab, they became a sensation in the world as soon as they were launched.

After the launch of the award, the "Liu Feng Science Prize Foundation" instantly attracted wide attention around the world because of the huge prize money that was the first in the world......
