On the central axis of Kyoto City, there is a legendary building that is the center of attention for the whole country because it hosts an important meeting at some time of the year. At the same time, it is also a venue for many important national events, and any conference that can be held here is a conference with national influence.

Of course, with the development of the market economy, in order to reduce the pressure of maintaining its own huge expenses, the Great Hall has gradually begun to move towards the market, with some market functions, and began to think about some commercial behavior to open up, but this does not change his status in the eyes of the people in the country!

Tuesday, January 14, 2012.

This year's National Science and Technology Awards Conference was still held in the General Assembly Hall, and because of the presence of many national leaders, especially the most important ones, the area around the General Assembly Hall was inertly controlled, and only those with a delegate card on their chests were eligible to enter it.

When Tian Lu arrived, it was just past nine o'clock.

Each session of the National Science and Technology Award Conference is the largest scientific and technological event in China, the number of participants is as high as more than 3,000, many delegates who came in advance are entering one after another, after strict security and document verification, Tian Lu walked quickly into this magnificent building that has been here several times.

The Great Hall is open to the public on normal days, and Tian Lu has accompanied his parents and parents-in-law to visit, and even enjoyed two lunch boxes that are not cheap, but the feeling of stepping into this building on such a day is obviously different. The guards and staff standing straight around him, as well as the delegates with equally serious faces, made Tian Lu's expression solemn.

After entering the venue, someone had already greeted him from afar: "Professor Tian, this way!"

Tian Lu hurriedly looked up, and saw Zhao Peng, the director of the Scientific Research Office of Beijing Normal University, at a glance, he greeted Tian Lu and walked quickly to Tian Lu, and said with a smile: "You came quite early, hehe." The location of our Beijing Normal University is all in the same place. Just come with me. ”

Tian Lu greeted with a smile, and asked with some curiosity: "Director Zhao, are you waiting for someone at the door?" How many people have come to our school this time?"

"Yes, my job is to do a good job of serving everyone. ”

Zhao Peng said with a smile: "As for our school. This year, it seems to be a good result. A total of 14 projects were notified. Six of them are the first completion units, well, including your two!"

Speaking of which. Zhao Peng couldn't help but glance sideways at Tian Lu, the young professor who was also an academician.

As the director of the school's scientific research department, Zhao Peng has come to almost every award conference in recent years, but it is the first time I have seen a person win two awards at the same time!

Yes, although I don't know the result yet, but since the above notice must have won the lottery, and the name of the project was written on the notice, Zhao Peng knew that Tian Lu had won two. After doing it in advance, Zhao Peng knew very well that Tian Lu's two scientific research achievements were absolutely extraordinary, both of which were absolute international leading positions, and they were both in highly influential professional fields, so the award level he could get this time was 。。。。。。

"And both awards are the first to complete the award, I'm afraid it's hard for anyone to do this, right?"

Zhao Peng secretly admired in his heart and led Tian Lu to the location of Beijing Normal University.

In the majestic hall, the position of Jingshi University is still relatively high, and there are many statuses, and when Tian Lu walked to the place, there were already seven or eight people already sitting. Seeing Tian Lu coming, everyone stood up and greeted him warmly. Although everyone belongs to different colleges, but as a new academician last year, and this year was shortlisted for two awards at one time, Tian Lu's name has long been spread in the mouths of everyone, Zhao Peng briefly introduced, and immediately many people began to congratulate him.

"Thank you, thank you. ”

Tian Lu smiled and chatted with his colleagues who won awards this year.

I have to say that the strength of the School of Medicine of Beijing Normal University is really strong, among all 14 projects, there are 6 projects of the School of Medicine, almost half, but there are four projects that are the first to complete, and they occupy more than half of the country!

School of Basic Medical Sciences, School of Pharmacy, Cancer Hospital, Second Affiliated Hospital, four projects that won the award as the first completer, Tian Lu monopolized two of them!

Others may not be familiar with it, but everyone in the medical school must know Tian Luna very well, after all, the entire medical school was only a new academician last year. So everyone came over one after another, and Tian Lu greeted him warmly, and also congratulated him on winning two awards, especially the award-winning old professor of the School of Pharmacy, and thanked him again and again: "Professor Tian, in recent years, our students have been recruited by you, including three of my doctoral students, I really want to thank you!"

"Hehe, I just want to thank you for cultivating so many outstanding talents for us!"

Tian Lu hurriedly said politely.

As the place where Tian Lu is now working, the School of Medicine of Beijing Normal University is one of his three talent bases, and the other two are overseas and his alma mater, Lingnan University School of Medicine.

But the one who recruits the most people is always Beijing Normal University.

The basic eight-year students, undergraduate students majoring in experiments, will be absorbed by Future Biology every year, and because the new drug research and development department is still expanding, and Qian Lele has begun to prepare for the future pharmaceutical company, reserve senior technical talents, so the School of Pharmacy of Beijing Normal University has also become a source of talent for Tian Lu in the past two years.

Of course, as far as Academician Tian Lu is concerned, no matter how old the other party is and how old his qualifications are, he can only have an equal attitude with him at most. No one dares to rely on the old and sell the old.

After chatting for about half an hour, seeing that there were more and more people in the hall, suddenly a staff member in his thirties hurriedly ran over and shouted in a low voice: "This is the area of Beijing Normal University, right?

"Here I am!"

Tian Lu immediately stood up, nodded and said, "Is there anything wrong with me?"

After seeing Tian Lu, the staff's eyes suddenly lit up, and they hurriedly said: "Hello Professor Tian, the conference will start soon, please go to the front, your position is in the first row." Above by your name!"

"Hmm. Good. ”

Tian Lu, who had long known about today's arrangement, nodded, turned around and smiled at his colleagues who were already stunned: "I'm sorry, let's talk later." ”

Except for Fei Li and Cao Qiong, no one else knew that Tian Lu was going to speak on behalf of him. Naturally, I thought he must be sitting with him. But what I didn't expect was. The location of the field road turned out to be in the first row!

This illustrates the above, which is already self-evident.

Under the complicated gaze of everyone, Tian Lu involuntarily touched his pocket. After touching the speech that had been revised by many people, he stood up and followed the staff member briskly to the front of the stage。。。。。。

。。。。。。

At ten o'clock, when the familiar welcome song sounded, the auditorium where thousands of people gathered quickly fell silent. People habitually stood up and looked in the direction of the rostrum.

After a few moments, one of the people finally stepped onto the podium first.

At the same time, the applause rang out like a wave, endlessly, and in this applause, more than 20 national leaders in formal clothes walked onto the rostrum with smiles on their faces. Standing in the first row of the stage, even Tian Lu, who never cared about other things, recognized the first few people at the first time, and his mood was naturally a little excited.

On such a formal occasion, the seriousness of the atmosphere was naturally unquestionable, and after the solemn national anthem, the award meeting officially began.

First of all, the two winners of the highest national science and technology awards, two gray-haired old academicians, one eighty-one years old and the other seventy-nine years old, when the two old scientists received the big red certificate from the hands of the president, the audience immediately remembered thunderous applause!

Tian Lu also clapped his hands vigorously.

These scientists of the older generation are indeed worthy of people's respect, and in that era of material scarcity and simple experimental facilities, they were able to make surprising achievements, and the hard work they paid was definitely not imaginable by today's young scientists.

These honors, they do have peace of mind.

After the two old academicians stepped down, the highlight of this conference naturally arrived.

When the vice premier of the State Council stepped up to the podium and read out the decision on the award, the attention of everyone in the audience was concentrated, and thousands of eyes were focused on the vice premier! According to the practice of previous years, the first prize to be awarded was the natural science prize, that is, the most basic scientific field, and in this field, whether or not there will be a first prize this year has become a topic of great concern to everyone.

The Natural Science Award has been vacant for the first prize for three consecutive years.

In fact, not only in the past three years, but also in the past 20 years from 2000 to now, only eight first prizes of the Natural Science Prize have been issued!

Compared to other awards, this number is indeed a bit shabby.

However, for the scientific and technological community in China, the natural science award, in fact, is a problem in the field of basic scientific research. On the one hand, the award is indeed carried out in strict accordance with international standards, and the principle of preferring shortage to abundance is implemented, but on the other hand, the gap between China's basic scientific research field and the world's top level is also obvious, and it cannot be made up in a short period of time.

To put it bluntly, basic research is a scientific research that requires long-term accumulation and perseverance, and the time to produce results is very long, just like several projects sent out by Huaguo before, some of which have been achieved after more than ten years, and some of them have even been achieved after the unremitting efforts of several generations of scientists!

China's economic conditions are relatively backward, and the lack of investment in scientific research is still unable to provide the soil needed for the rapid development of basic research like a country like the United States.

Of course, the situation has improved a lot in recent years, and with the country's economic conditions getting better and better, more and more investment in scientific research, and more and more overseas students returning to China for development, the frequency of awarding natural science awards in the future will definitely be higher and higher.

It's just that this time's words。。。。。。

Under the gaze of thousands of expectant eyes, and after a prelude to the reading, the Deputy Prime Minister's speech finally got to the point: "。。。。。。 The first prize of the 2019 National Natural Science Award was "Research on the Mechanism of Action of the Blood-Brain Barrier", and the first unit to complete it was Beijing Normal University!

Each level of each award is a stage, and the first prize of the Natural Science Award is only one this year!

Even if there was only one such one, after the Deputy Prime Minister announced the results, the whole hall still burst into extremely warm applause! There is no doubt that the first prize of each natural science prize is a great achievement, and as scientists, everyone unreservedly expresses their respect!

In this thunderous applause, Tian Lu took a deep breath, stood up suddenly, and walked quickly onto the rostrum。。。。。。

。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

Adjust appropriately, don't take it seriously. (To be continued.) )
