Chapter 592 and the Nobel Prize Fight

A person's self-confidence stems from his ability, and so does the country. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoIn the past, the Chinese people had some inferiority complex because of their national strength, thinking that foreign countries were better than China, but now that China is stronger, the self-confidence of the Chinese people has also returned, and they no longer blindly worship the West.

For example, in the past, in Huaxia, foreign cars were synonymous with reliability and high-end, while domestic cars were copycats, low-end, and poor quality. People with money and status, no one will drive a domestic car. Now it's different, in the first two quarters of this year, the sales volume of the Huaxia automobile market was 10,000, and its Chinese-made cars accounted for 50%!

The domestic car mentioned here is not the kind of joint venture car, but the local brand of Huaxia, which shows how rapid the development of Huaxia's automobile industry is!

This is true for automobiles, and it is also true for other industries. In the field of smartphones, the top five sales in China are all domestic brands, Apple has fallen to seventh, and Samsung has just squeezed into the top ten. In the high-end mobile phone market, Tianxin Electronics and Huawei have also crushed foreign brands, they not only dominate the domestic market, but also carve up a considerable international market.

In this context, with a leading figure like Lu Yang, it is natural for China to reflect on the Nobel Prize.

The comments of ordinary people don't have much impact, but the support of some professionals is different. On the second day when Lu Yang launched a wave of reflection, Academician Yu Guangjie, President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was in WeChat? Boshang published a comment expressing his support for Lu Yang, saying that "Huaxia should not be superstitious about the Nobel Prize, but should introspect itself, maintain a pragmatic, rigorous, and down-to-earth style in scientific research, and do not be misled by the award." ā€

Of course, he did not accuse the unfairness of the Nobel Prize like Lu Yang, and in his opinion, the Nobel Prize is still more authoritative and fair in scientific awards such as physics, chemistry, and physiology.

Many education experts have also commented subsequently, agreeing with this reflection brought by Lu Yang. On the issue of the Nobel Prize, they are not as sharp as Lu Yang, but they also ask the Chinese people not to take it too seriously.

The most surprising thing to the outside world is that the Chinese scientist who just won the Nobel Prize in Physiology a few years ago also supported Lu Yang!

The Chinese media commented, "The statement of the president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and this scientist shows that Lu Yang has conquered the Chinese scientific community", while the foreign media were surprised, Huaxia, which had always regarded the Nobel Prize as its pride, should now collectively boycott the Nobel Prize?

There are too many controversies and influences about the Nobel Prize, and Lu Yang's family and friends know about it. For this reason, Zhu Xiaotong, who was in the capital to take care of Lu Yuhan, specially called Lu Yang.

"Can't you take care of your own image?" Zhu Xiaotong called and complained, "Your current status, you have to discuss anything outside for a long time, and you still say such controversial things." ā€

Lu Yang smiled: "Don't you know me as a person, no matter what status you have or not, you can say whatever you want in your heart." ā€

"But what a bad impact you have when you say that." Zhu Xiaotong worried, "I read the news, Europe is full of criticism for you, many influential scientists have come forward, and some people have proposed to boycott Penglai Group's products." Today I saw again that there is still a march in Norway for you to apologize......"

Lu Yang didn't care and said: "Don't care, any criticism and demonstrations have nothing to do with me." As for boycotting Penglai Group's products, whatever they want, I don't have to consider their feelings at all. Back then, the Norwegians gave the Nobel Peace Prize to those two bastards, and they didn't think about Huaxia, and they haven't apologized until now, and they still expect me to apologize, hum......"

Zhu Xiaotong was relieved to see that her husband was not affected by public opinion from the outside world. She called not to blame Lu Yang, but to comfort him, in her heart, no matter whether Lu Yang was right or wrong, she would definitely stand with him.

"Dad, I don't want the Nobel Prize in the future!" Seeing that Zhu Xiaotong didn't speak, Xingxing interjected.

When Lu Yang saw his son, he laughed and said, "What a good son of my father!" But the Nobel Prize is nothing unusual, and when the time comes, you can get a more powerful prize for your father! ā€

Zhu Xiaotong said angrily: "Why haven't I heard that there are more powerful awards?" ā€

Lu Yang said: "Not now, it won't be long before it is." ā€

Zhu Xiaotong immediately reacted: "Are you going to hold an award yourself?" ā€

"He is worthy of being a top student of Beijing University, and his response is fast!" Lu Yang praised one.

Zhu Xiaotong looked at her husband's virtual image and said with a smile: "Husband, don't you just hold another prize just to be angry with the Nobel Prize, right?" Although you don't look down on the Nobel Prize, it's fair to say that it is still very authoritative on a global scale. Even if you hold an award and fight with the Nobel Prize, the gap is too big, it is meaningless, and it becomes a joke......"

"What's the big gap, joke ......" Lu Yang rolled his eyes, "You have so little confidence in me?" ā€

"It's not a matter of confidence, in short, winning an award is not the same as doing technical research, it's not something you can control." Zhu Xiaotong persuaded.

"Even if you can't control everything, you can still control most of it!" Lu Yang said calmly, "The Nobel Prize can be developed to this day, which is what the Western world has used to win for more than 100 years, and it is also because the West has dominated the development of global science and technology for more than 100 years." Now the situation is different, the future science and technology center is in Huaxia, and Huaxia should have a science award commensurate with her status. ā€

Zhu Xiaotong realized at this time that Lu Yang was not just talking, so he stopped persuading. She suddenly felt that her husband had been preparing for this matter for more than a day or two.

Zhu Xiaotong guessed correctly, Lu Yang had a plan to create a science prize very early.

Lu Yang's idea for the award has been around for more than five years, and the initial inspiration came from the Oscars. At that time, Tianxin Pictures took advantage of the tide of the development of Chinese films and expanded rapidly, and the box office of the Chinese film market had reached 69% of the United States.

The focus of Lu Yang's career was not on movies, and later the construction of Penglai Island made him lose his mind. However, his idea was inherited by Lu Yuhan, who heard that the box office of the Chinese film market this year will surpass that of the United States and become the world's No. 1, and Lu Yuhan also negotiated with the government on behalf of domestic film and television companies to prepare to create a more fair, open, and Oscar film award.

After the establishment of the Penglai Academy of Sciences, Lu Yang realized that Penglai Island should have its own science award, but at that time, he considered that Penglai Island started late after all, and still needed some accumulation and precipitation, and it was difficult to establish a world science award abruptly, so he put it on hold for the time being.

This time, the Nobel Prize incident stimulated Lu Yang and made him have to advance his plan.

Of course, even though Lu Yang is very confident, he still feels tricky about creating an award that is more authoritative than the Nobel Prize. In his opinion, the Nobel Prize has such a fame, first by the prize money, and then by the recognition of the Western world, especially the latter is the most important. In the past 100 years, the Nobel Prize has almost become a measure of a scientist's fame, and whether or not he has won the Nobel Prize represents a scientist's achievements.

In addition to these two factors, there is another very important factor that has made the Nobel Prize, that is, the extraordinary achievements of scientists and the technological achievements that have influenced mankind.

From this point of view, the Nobel Prize and the Oscar have a lot of similarities, the Oscar was born in the most developed country of the film industry, and getting this award is very beneficial to the box office of the film, which is similar to the Nobel Prize bonus. Secondly, Oscar was recognized by the United States, and then by the world, representing great fame. Third, stimulated by the first two factors, the best films and filmmakers who come to participate in the Oscar selection are the best, which in turn raises the Oscars.

A virtuous circle of three factors has made the Oscars.

According to this interpretation, Lu Yang planned the science prize he was going to create. First, funding is not a problem, there are probably people in this world who are richer than Luyang, but there are definitely not a few. And with the strength of Huaxia today, it is already possible to create such a top-level science award.

Second, fame and recognition, which is a bit difficult to do. At present, the world's discourse power is still in the hands of the West, and China's rise is still short, and the challenge to the West is not enough. In addition, for an award, the reputation of fairness and impartiality is very important, and in this regard, China has a natural disadvantage compared to the West.

Third, the participants. Whether an award is authoritative and how high the standard is, just look at the participants. For science prizes, only those top scientific achievements and scientists participate in order to reflect the authority of the award, and the participants are equivalent to the spokesperson of the award. It's like a brand-name product, if you ask a beggar to endorse it, no one will want to buy it, no matter how good your product is.

"The first point is the time of day, the second point is the location, and the third point is the people. The time is there, the location is lacking, and people need to find a way to solve it. Lu Yang pondered, according to the perspective of "the time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people", among the three factors, the third factor is the most important, and it is also the focus that Lu Yang needs to solve.

"In terms of funds, too much is not good, and too little is not good. There are too many, giving people the impression of a nouveau riche who spends money, too little and not attractive, so that the award fund is set at 10 billion, and the project is set at physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, astronomy, these five basic natural sciences, well, plus computer networks or artificial intelligence, just set these six first, too much is not good. In this way, each winner will be able to take a significant share of the fund's proceeds. Lu Yang pondered. (To be continued.) )
