Chapter 196: Controversial Winners
"Second winner...... Lu Zhou! β
Hearing the name, the audience was silent for a while.
No one is unfamiliar with the name.
But hearing the name here shows almost everyone's face. I was surprised, and surprised.
Because, the owner of this name is so young, just 21 years old, not even half of the average age of everyone in the venue!
The academic circle is a place where qualifications are spoken.
No one doubts his academic capital.
But the qualifications are not enough, and it is still difficult to convince the public to install this glory!
Mr. Qiu pushed his glasses and continued in a steady tone.
ββ¦β¦ The main research results are the proof of Zhou's theorem and the twin prime number theorem, and the use of topological methods to further supplement the sieve theory. Not only in the field of pure mathematics, but also in the field of applied mathematics, he also has his own unique opinions, and his research results in the field of computational materials science have been highly praised by Professor Bawandi of Bell Labs. For a young scholar, each of these achievements is invaluable. β
Don't say it's a young scholar.
Even veteran scholars who have been doing research for decades may not be able to do this to this extent.
As for qualifications......
can get such an evaluation from Mr. Qiu, will anyone care about this?
Gradually, applause rang out.
Soon, like a pouring rain, it spread from the front row to the back row, and from the middle to the whole field.
Staring at the podium, Lu Zhou's eyes widened slightly, and his pupils were full of surprise.
He finally understood, what was Academician Lu hiding from him?
Professor Liu and Senior Brother Yan congratulate themselves?
It's just that he still didn't expect that the Chinese Mathematical Society would award him such a big honor.
Although the Chern Prize in Mathematics looks like a young scholar, it has never been awarded to a young scholar in his twenties.
Senior Brother Yang was not surprised, and the smile on his honest fat face was very natural.
It was as if he was not surprised that he had won the award or that Lu Zhou had won the award.
patted Lu Zhou on the shoulder, and he reminded with a smile: "Let's go, Senior Brother Lu, it's time for us to come to the stage to accept the award." β
"Oh......" Lu Zhou nodded a little woodenly and stood up.
Walking on the red carpet and looking at the podium getting closer and closer to him, Lu Zhou's heart beat wildly because of excitement.
But the moment he stepped onto the podium, his heartbeat gradually calmed down.
Receiving the golden medal and certificate from Mr. Qiu's hand, Lu Zhou nodded politely and said "thank you".
Originally, it was just a polite thank you, but I didn't expect Mr. Qiu to smile and actually reply to him.
"You're welcome, you deserve this honor!"
Saying that, Mr. Qiu also nodded to Yang Zhiguang, and said with a smile: "The two winners, just say something." β
Yang Zhiguang smiled and humbly conceded: "Then please ask my junior brother to speak first." β
Lu Zhou also wanted to excuse himself, but Mr. Qiu's microphone had already been handed over.
Taking the microphone, Lu Zhou took a deep breath, faced the venue where the applause gradually subsided, and said in a steady and excited voice.
"Thanks to my alma mater, Jinling University, for cultivating me, and for the affirmation of the Chinese Mathematical Society, I will not forget my original intention, continue to move forward, and strive to achieve greater results on the road of mathematics!"
"Thank you!"
His acceptance speech was short.
With the last thank you, there are only two sentences in total.
Although there was no pompous performance, no impassioned and generous speeches, he sent out his own voice and that belonged to a bag of young mathematicians to the Chinese mathematical community and even the world.
Bang Bang Bang ......
In the venue, applause detonated.
Looking approvingly at the podium, Academician Lu applauded gently.
And next to him, Senior Brother Yan was a little excited when he applauded, his hands were almost red, and he couldn't help but shout.
"Hold the grass! Senior Brother Lu is awesome! β
Twenty-one-year-old Chern, a winner of the Prize in Mathematics, stood there, and this cow was enough for him to blow for a lifetime.
"Civilization point!"
Academician Lu, who was sitting next to him, reprimanded, but with a smile on his face, there was no sense of reproach in it.
It was not only the mathematicians in the audience who gave applause, but even the undergraduates of the Student Union of Beijing Normal University, who were standing at the door of the venue and were in charge of the reception, couldn't help but applaud.
The man standing on the podium was the same age as them, even a year or two younger than them.
But it was precisely in this way that he won the applause of all the mathematicians in the audience.
In him, they saw the light called example......
β¦β¦
Of course, although the applause was loud, not everyone was satisfied with Lu Zhou, the young winner of the Chern Shiingshen Award.
For example, the one who had already stepped on the podium with half a foot, but was kicked away at the last minute......
There was thunderous applause next to him, and Wei Siyang, who was sitting in the back row of the venue, looked a little embarrassed, resting his hands on his laps, wanting to give applause, but he didn't dare.
There is no other reason, just because the boss sitting next to him has green eyes at this time, and if he dares to clap his hands, I am afraid that he will not want to graduate successfully.
Staring at the person on the podium, Ma Changan's horse face was very long, and his face was gloomy and a little terrifying.
What made him jealous was not because Lu Zhou's refusal offended him, but because this glory should have belonged to him.
As for why, the story is a bit long.
The circle of the domestic mathematics community is not large, but the rivers and lakes in it have always been not small.
In 52 years, the national college adjustment required that the university system built in the Republic of China should be imitated by the British style, and the transformation effect should be imitated by the Soviet-style "professional model".
Although the overall strength of the mathematics departments of Yan University and Aurora has increased for a period of time, it has also laid the groundwork for the rampant mountainism in the mathematical community in the future. Up to now, the mathematical community can be basically divided into three major factions: Yan University, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Aurora, which control academic resources such as funds, awards, and academician selection.
At worst, this is a waste of academic resources, but it is also a tradition in academia.
Among them, the most famous is probably Professor Feng, a close disciple of Hua Luogeng, whose academic attainments are not high, but because Mr. Hua Luogeng died too early, he failed to be elected as an academician several times.
In the end, this old gentleman was poached from the Chinese Academy of Sciences by Shuimu University to be the dean, and one of the conditions was to help him become an academician, but he has not succeeded so far.
It can be seen that the selection of academicians is not necessarily linked to academic "absolute".
Of course, it's impossible to get a person who doesn't do anything to go up, you have to have some academic capital that can be said to be reasonable.
As a member of the Aurora School, Ma Changan has been preparing for a long time for the 17-year selection of academicians. He has an impeccable political salary and has worked hard for more than 20 years, and has worked hard in the Aurora Mathematics Department.
However, its academic capital is still too thin compared to those professors who are dedicated to learning, let alone a top journal, and even a paper that can be called a major research result has not been written.
Of course, he still has a lot of articles for two and three works, after all, he is the apprentice of the late "previous head" Gu senior, and the "current head" of the Aurora School, Dean Hong, is also a senior brother, and many professors of Aurora University, even if they are not interested in some things, they will give him a little face.
However, what is more uncomfortable is that domestic and foreign countries are different, only the first author is recognized, and the second work is not recognized in the future.
Therefore, he set his sights on the Chern Prize in Mathematics.
If you win the Chern's Mathematics Award, with this qualifications as a faΓ§ade, and with the support of your senior brother, there is no problem in evaluating an academician.
As early as a few years ago, he started running around for this award, and his senior brother helped a lot.
He even thought of his acceptance speech.
As a result, I didn't expect to be cut off by this kid!
