Chapter 1097: Heated Debate
Lin Yuan stood up calmly, he knew that since he had already spoken, he must not retreat. net
"Mr. Luther, you keep talking about pseudoscience, so I would like to ask you, do you know what the definition of science is?"
This sentence choked Luthor a lot. It's not that Luthor isn't knowledgeable enough, but it's not that simple to really define science.
Everyone may be able to understand what the word science means, but it is really not easy to summarize it in a few words.
Lin Yuan smiled faintly: "Science, the currently accepted explanation is the present, accumulated and recognized universal truth or the application of universal formulation, which has been systematized and formulated. Mainstream scientific classifications, including natural, social, thinking and other fields. Charles Darwin once said that science is about collating facts, drawing conclusions from them. β
Hearing this, Luthor suddenly had words: "Mr. Lin Yuan, as you said, Darwin's definition points out the connotation of science, that is, facts and laws. Science is a fact that is unknown to the present people, and based on this, it is deduced according to things in reality to form a theoretical system, rather than a fantasy of pure thinking that is divorced from reality, Mr. Lin Yuan, am I right?"
"That's right, you're talking about the current mainstream perception in the academic world, and all the definitions and behaviors about science are based on this. Mr. Luther, when you define a discipline as pseudoscience, do you take this principle to heart?"
At this moment, among the experts attending the meeting, there was a guy standing up, this guy had a beard, like an unevolved ape.
"Organizer, are you going to allow a listener to mess with the venue? Hurry up and call the security guards and blast this person out for me. β
Mo Anyu stood up and said indifferently, "Mr. Black, please sit down, we, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as the organizer, naturally know what to do." Didn't you hear what that gentleman said? Lin Yuan has been nominated as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and from this point of view, he is already qualified to discuss in the academic field. Do you not want to accept the debate, or do you think that the level of our CAS is not enough?"
The few places on Blake's face where skin could be exposed turned red in an instant. Now in China, the country is prosperous, even if you look down on the Chinese Academy of Sciences in your heart, you don't dare to say it bluntly. How many old capital empires have honestly admitted their mistakes by pointing fingers at Huaxia, and they have to ensure that they will not make similar mistakes again.
What's more, how many of the world's top scientific and technological talents have been produced by the Chinese Academy of Sciences? If you dare to question the Chinese Academy of Sciences, you are looking for bad luck.
Blake looked at Lin Yuan, and suddenly saw that this person was very young, only in his twenties, and said, "Mr. Mo, our platform for promoting communication welcomes any different opinions. However, it's a bit rude to stand in the audience and speak, right? If you really have a different point of view, you can come up to the stage and state it. β
Mo Anyu frowned slightly, he helped Lin Yuan speak, in fact, because he couldn't get used to Luther's remarks, Lin Yuan's retort was exactly what he wanted to do.
It's just that what Blake wants to do is actually very good.
The Life Science Promotion Exchange Conference is actually a very open platform. Of course, there is a premise for this openness, that is, it must reach a certain academic standard in order to be free and open. Otherwise, everyone wants to join this platform, so won't this platform become a vegetable market?
Blake obviously saw that Lin Yuan was very young, so he took the army here. If Lin Yuan is allowed to debate, it means that Lin Yuan is a candidate recognized by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and if there is any low-level mistake, people all over the world will laugh at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Thinking of this, Mo Anyu unconsciously glanced at Lin Yuan's side.
Lin Yuan knew what Blake meant, if it was just an academic issue, there was no need for Lin Yuan to get involved, but Luther's remarks involved Lin Yuan, or the bottom line of all Chinese people, and at this point, he didn't have a problem, he walked on the rostrum very calmly.
Mo Anyu doesn't have to be entangled, let Lin Yuan come to power, he may bear the consequences of Lin Yuan's failure to be ridiculed by the Academy of Sciences. But if Lin Yuan is not allowed to come to power, this is impossible to say in his heart.
Since Lin Yuan came to power by himself, Mo Anyu simply accepted this established fact.
"Mr. Black, am I making a formal defense?"
Blake's face was ugly, and he asked, "Mr. Lin Yuan, are you representing the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"
"I am a Chinese person, I represent all Chinese people, the Chinese Academy of Sciences is a place where China's top talents are gathered, I represent their identity as Chinese people, but I can't represent their level. β
"Okay! Lin Yuan, come on!" Dong Jianfang seems to have just joined the work, and his behavior has deviated somewhat from the objective and fair perspective of his news media person.
However, as Dong Jianfang's cheering sounded, other Chinese media reporters also clapped their hands, although the scene was not very warm, but every Chinese person is showing an attitude, we support you.
"Mr. Lin Yuan, if you say so, your qualifications to come to power are a little doubtful. This is a life science promotion and exchange meeting, you don't represent the life science level of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, how can you be qualified to come to the stage?"
"Mr. Black, I think you've forgotten why I'm on stage. I came to the audience with a sense of respect, and if I was only discussing academic issues, I would not pose as an expert. As for you, when answering reporters' questions, there are remarks insulting Chinese people and slandering traditional Chinese medicine, as a Chinese person, of course I am not used to such behavior!"
"Okay! Lin Yuan, go on, let the foreign devils know how powerful we are. β
I really don't know how Nan Huai'an got into the ranks of the civil servants of the Ministry of Health, like him, he will make trouble when there is something, and he doesn't pay attention to any impact, according to normal thinking, it is difficult for such a guy to gain a foothold in the civil service.
It's a miracle that this guy went all the way up the ladder and got mixed up with the Ministry of Health, and was assigned to study here.
Nan Huai'an is very exaggerated, he is holding his mobile phone to shoot on the stage, talking in his mouth, and rich body language, looking like that, he can't wait to go up in person, but he knows how many pounds and taels he has, and he has broken this idea.
Blake didn't know what to say, so he burst out in a while: "Mr. Lin Yuan, if there is anything inappropriate in what I said just now, I apologize." However, this is an academic conference in the life sciences, and we don't need to get involved in anything else. β
"Well, Mr. Black, I would like to ask you, if someone insults your country, if you insult your country, will you stand up? Okay, this question will be put aside for a moment, and I would like to ask, is this Luthor also an expert in life sciences? What qualifications does he have to talk about genetically modified crops? Why does he say something irresponsible because of this?"
Blake was said to be red-faced, Luthor is not an expert in life sciences, this is a fact, Lin Yuan just caught the idea.
"Mr. Lin Yuan, Mr. Luthor is the sponsor of this promotion meeting, and he has the right to participate in the meeting. β
"Is the right to participate the same as the right to speak? Is it okay to make a lot of nonsense and make irresponsible remarks in disregard of the facts?"
Luthor saw that Blake was short of words, so he took over the conversation: "Mr. Lin Yuan, I just want to express my feelings, if you think I am insulting, it is your personal prejudice. Do you want to label me with the insulting words you have spoken when I speak from my heart?"
Lin Yuan glanced at Luthor and said, "You say that no one cares about you in your heart, who do you think you are? Can a European or American face attract the attention of Chinese people? Only superficial people will think that others are superficial, Mr. Luther, what do you think?"
Luthor exaspered: "What I said is the truth, and I don't mean to insult anyone, is it considered an insult to say a little criticism?"
"If you say that, you are not only insulting the civilization of the Chinese people, but also insulting the intelligence of the Chinese people. I think that's okay, because ignorant people tend to put on a high look. β
Luthor laughed angrily: "Haha, Mr. Lin Yuan, say I'm ignorant? Okay, I want to ask, where is my ignorance? If you say that you can prove your point, I apologize to you, if not, I won't bother with a person who is full of wild words." β
Lin Yuan's eyes were blazing, showing an unquestionable confidence. Lin Yuan expressed his understanding of science.
According to Tong Chai, science covers three things.
One of the most important aspects of Keyang is observation. All of this is based on meticulous observation, through which the truth of nature is revealed.
Then, there is the hypothesis, through the observation and extension of thinking, to deduce some reasonable explanation of the truth.
Finally, it is to test the rational explanations that reveal the truth of nature, and then form a systematic theoretical system.
Lin Yuan said: "What I am talking about is not to give you a simple principle of popular science, but to show that some of Mr. Luther's remarks simply ignore the history of the Chinese medicine exhibition. He does not speak his own words based on the results of research, but through subjective assumptions, which is certainly not a scientific attitude, and therefore I say that he is ignorant. β
Blake had already sat down, and when he heard Lin Yuan say this, he stood up and said: "Mr. Lin Yuan, the history of traditional Chinese medicine is born from primitive witchcraft. Can Chinese medicine, which has been developed from witchcraft, be called science?"
