Chapter 1410: The Wise See Wisdom
From the host to the reporter, to other Nobel Prize winners, they all looked at Yang Rui and Michelson with curious eyes.
To be honest, the question Mitchelson asked was really one that everyone was interested in.
Yang Rui is the youngest known Nobel laureate, and before that, Lawrence was the only one who could win the Nobel Prize before the age of 30.
However, it was already 1915, 70 years ago, and no one had actually met young Lawrence and asked such questions.
At this time, there are already media people who can't help but imagine that if there was such a reporter 70 years ago who could ask such a question, for today's people, it would be - how funny it would be.
Hahahahaha!
Yang Rui is naturally even more blindsided.
With a "Are you kidding me" expression, he carefully looked at Mitchelson, but what he saw was a man who was almost fanatical with excitement.
"Well, since you asked, I'll give you a good answer. Yang Rui touched his chin and said, "Your question is actually a misunderstanding of scientific researchers and the scientific research community. Many people think of scientific research as very serious, hectic and low-exertion work, which is not true. β
Mitchelson listened carefully, from a reporter's point of view, he didn't care what Yang Rui answered, as long as he answered, he had something to write.
Yang Rui thought about it and said, "Life is not just about work...... Researchers love life as much as they do, and we just love work like life......"
He almost said that "life is not only in front of him", but fortunately he stopped it in time, but he still poured a pot of chicken soup out of it, otherwise what should he do, at the public press conference of the Nobel Prize, did he use his talent to poison everyone?
Naturally, you don't need to be talented to do scientific research, but everyone should understand that those who achieve the top in scientific research must be talented.
However, no one said that on any formal occasion.
"Your talent is not good, so don't do this......"
"A change of industry may be more promising......"
"You're wasting your future by doing this......"
Sincere consolation, if it is not regarded as the wind in the ears, or it is hated in the heart, just waiting for the day when he returns by the colorful auspicious clouds and retaliates with a slap in the face.
It's better to pour a bowl of chicken soup, you are comfortable and I am comfortable.
Anyway, what Yang Rui says shocking things abroad, he will be processed into chicken soup by reporters when he returns to China, so he might as well boil chicken soup abroad.
Persuading foreign children with hard work, and then being scolded by foreign media, isn't that a neurosis?
Mitchelson was really very comfortable, the most important thing is that Yang Rui's words are very targeted, love work and life, it is very vulgar to say on weekdays, but let the Nobel Prize winner say it, it is not cheesy at all.
When elementary school students from all over the world write essays again, don't they have a little more information about famous sayings and aphorisms?
Mitchelson said happily: "Mr. Yang Rui, your words have given me more insight into scientific research life, but you are the youngest Nobel Prize winner, and you won the Nobel Prize at such a young age, what is your secret, or what advice do you have for young people to read and do research?"
The host has already regretted mentioning Mitchelson, the level of the question is really a little low, and it is basically infinitely close to an entertainment interview.
However, I have to say that it is such a popular question that attracts the audience the most.
The director below is already gesturing to the host to extend Mitchelson's time.
No way, the Nobel Prize is very important, and TV stations also ask for ratings.
If there is no audience, will the Swedish government and the Nobel Foundation be happy?
Yang Rui didn't think Mitchelsen's question was simple at all.
It doesn't matter how easy or difficult the problem is.
In his current state, if Mitchelson dares to ask about genomics-related majors, Yang Rui can make him regret speaking in three hours.
However, this kind of secret, suggestion or something is nonsense, and if the answer is not good, it may become a stain.
Yang Rui rubbed his chin and began to recall the chicken soup jokes he had read, thought about it, and felt that it was too low-end to talk about life at such a press conference, so he simply found a few ancient texts in his mind and memorized "Persuasion":
Green is taken from blue, and green is blue, ice, water is for it, and cold is for water...... Therefore, if you do not climb the mountains, you do not know the height of the sky, you do not know the depth of the deep stream, you do not know the thickness of the earth, you do not hear the last words of the kings, and you do not know the greatness of learning...... I try to think all day long, it is better to learn what I have to learn......
The ancient Chinese texts are very intonal, elegant, and catchy.
An article "Persuasion of Learning" can basically answer many people's discussions, such as what is the use of reading, whether social universities are more useful than books, and so on.
Yang Rui read it very coolly, and the translation was stupid.
Hanging is not an adjective, it is a verb.
The translator is eager to untie his tie now, then take off his belt, connect the two, throw them onto the beams, tie a slipknot, and place his neck on it...... What, Swedish houses don't have beams? Doesn't death make people free?
Naturally, the Swedes were even more stupid to listen to.
They could tell that Yang Rui seemed to have recited an ancient poem or something, but when they listened to the translation of the translation, they knew that they couldn't understand it at all.
Xinyada and the like ask for it when interpreting, but if you want to understand the specific content, the translator must have a similar answer.
However, the ancient text itself is very informative, and when translated into English, it is not to mention.
Yang Rui took two minutes, memorized hundreds of words of persuasion, copied it with his hand, and leaned back on the chair. The translator seemed to have been examined, wiping his sweat while translating, and stammering as if his lungs had been kicked by a 200-pound child.
"I should learn from you. The Austrian sitting next to him covered the microphone and praised Yang Rui softly, saying, "We also have beautiful poems and fables in Austria, and this is a good time to use them." β
The Austrian was slightly embarrassed by the fact that he had just been asked several questions, but at this time he regretted it.
Yang Rui laughed twice and said, "I just hope that I won't delay too much effort." β
The director in the audience already regretted it very much, and he didn't even need to look at the background data to know that the ratings must have fallen down.
Is there a more boring press conference than this?
Fortunately, the host was more clever, and after waiting for an appropriate time, he stood up and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Yang Rui, for your wonderful speech, let us ask questions about the next generation of Nobel laureates......"
The reporters below were very dissatisfied and booed.
They don't care about the TV ratings.
In 87 years, the television industry still can't beat the newspaper industry in terms of compulsion and strength.
Mitchelson hurriedly said, "Professor Yang, what are your next plans, and if there are invitations to entertainment programs or movies and TV series, would you be willing to participate?"
Mitchelson was ready in his heart, once Yang Rui gave a positive answer, or gave a vague answer, he would immediately contact the entertainment unit.
During his years as a "Nobel AttachΓ©", Mitchelson also got to know a lot of people in the entertainment industry.
He is completely sure that he can push Yang Rui out and become a star.
The Nobel laureate was "electrocuted" for the first time, and it was not difficult to sell millions of copies.
Still such a handsome Nobel laureate.

Sprinkle flowers, the new book "Reborn Entertainment Scholar" is enthusiastically online (mistaken).

However, when Yang Rui heard the Swedes talk about movies, the first thing that came to mind was small movies.
This is a very strange thing from a national point of view.
Sweden is a very serious country, like Japan. They are never late, like Japan, and they never arrive early, like Japan.
The Swedes strive for excellence in the manufacturing industry, like Japan, and the Swedes treat people like machines, so strict that they are restrained, like Japan.
Swedes don't like to trouble others, and it can even be said that they are afraid of trouble, like Japan.
The same is true of Swedish and Japanese films.
Their commercial films once flourished, but they didn't last long, and they quickly degenerated into art films, and at the same time, it was the production of small films that always flourished.
In Asia, people laugh when they talk about Japanese movies.
In Europe, people laugh when they talk about Swedish films.
Although Yang Rui knew that the reporter opposite was not talking about a small movie, his chest was still cold, and he hurriedly said: "Human Genome Project." β
After a pause, Yang Rui added: "My next plan is to participate in the Human Genome Project, and I am not interested in work outside of scientific research. β
In the group of reporters, there was a small commotion.
There's a lot of talk about the Human Genome Project, and for the sake of this $3 billion research project, scholars have had to hype it up and use all the resources at their disposal.
Journalists who have any slight knowledge of the scientific and technological world are aware of the Human Genome Project, which as a scientific research project, may be slightly less newsworthy than the Apollo program.
Change the human being, treat cancer and even all levels, live forever, and solve the mystery of biology...... Pick any one and point it out, and you can write several books that are tempting to buy.
"Has Professor Yang confirmed his participation in the Human Genome Project?" asked a reporter who raised his hand regardless of the order of the press conference.
"I have spoken to Mr. Darbeko many times and he is very supportive. Yang Rui replied firmly.
Darbeko, of course, supported. If Yang Rui only represented the inventor of PCR in the past, and furthermore, represented the invention and production of advanced scientific research equipment, Yang Rui does not need to be any representative now.
Winning the Nobel Prize means that Yang Rui's name is an asset.
Just as Darbeco's announcement of support for the Human Genome Project will make the stocks of related companies in the U.S. stock market soar, Yang Rui's participation has further stimulated the implementation of the Human Genome Project.
Strictly speaking, the Human Genome Project is actually divided into three parts, in addition to the well-known division between government and business, Britain's Sanger is also independent as a prince because of his status as a two-time Nobel laureate.
The British Human Genome Project is basically carried out alone, regardless of efficiency, and the momentum is not inferior at all.
Although Yang Rui has just won the Nobel Prize, he cannot be compared with Sanger, but the Nobel Prize is the Nobel Prize, and no one can say that one Nobel laureate is weaker than another, especially at the political and social levels.
If it was Yang Rui who joined Darbeco's team in the past, now, Yang Rui can also stand on his own as a giant.
"Professor Yang, can we understand that the Chinese government will support the Human Genome Project?" another reporter quickly asked.
"I'm a scientist and I support the Human Genome Project. At the same time, I will actively introduce the plan to the government, but I am not sure whether it will be adopted. Yang Rui replied very cautiously.
"Thank you, Professor Yang, for your answer. The host came to the front desk again, ready to end his question to Yang Rui.
The press conference that went through the motions has already sprinkled too much dry goods.
"I've heard that many universities and research institutes are approaching you, would you choose to go to a top research institute or university?" asked an American, who didn't mean to hide his accent at all.
And his question this time also attracted great attention. The host also retreated silently.
Most of the Nobel laureates basically have a mature scientific research team, living in stable positions and research institutions, and few can change jobs casually, that is, the future generations of Chinese Changjiang scholars, are tied up by various contracts and projects, Nobel Prize-level scholars, at least the world's second-order level, where to run.
However, in the eyes of foreign onlookers, Peking University, where Yang Rui works, is obviously not a top research institution, and in terms of China's economic level in the 80s, it is very reluctant to be first-class.
In terms of world rankings alone, Cairo University in Egypt was higher than the current Peking University.
Some people even take it for granted that Yang Rui, who won the Nobel Prize, will jump to other world-famous universities.
In the age when the dream of going abroad was popular, this was not a strange or outlandish situation.
Yang Rui smiled, shook his head slightly, and said, "I have no intention of going to other research institutions, and in addition, I have not contacted other universities and research institutions. β
The reporters worked hard to write, but as for the content of the final newspaper, whether it describes Yang Rui's firmness is a matter of wisdom.
