Chapter 191: Dropping the trophy
Pachbel's Canon in D major came to an abrupt end, and the crowd in the lights stopped talking, and as their eyes met, Olamp ascended to the podium. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Thank you for attending this ceremony for the Federal Contribution Award." An excited voice spit out from Orumpu's mouth, and everyone cooperated with various expressions, "This is the award ceremony of the first Federal Contribution Award, and where the next Federal Contribution Award will be held has not yet been determined, so we should hold this session in style." ”
He took the letter out of his pocket, tore it apart, and roughly tore open the envelope.
"This time, the winners were personally nominated by Chairman Hua Xia, and were ......recognized by 91% of the votes of the 224 countries of the Earth Federation."
"The winner is Xiao Li!"
The last 'Xiao Li', Orump blurted out in Chinese, and the audience immediately burst into applause.
"Congratulations, Shaw."
"Congratulations, congratulations."
"Congratulations on winning your first Federal Contribution Award and going down in history!"
The congratulatory voices swept over, and the eyes of envy and jealousy swept over him, to put it mildly, there are so many member countries of the Earth Federation, as the head of state of the member states, he may not be able to leave his name, Xiao Li, as a scientist, won the Federal Contribution Award, the most authoritative award of the Federation, and thus wrote it into history, how could they not be envious and jealous?
Xiao Li took the stage under the envy and jealousy of everyone, and took Orump's trophy in applause, the gold-plated trophy was engraved with the emblem of the Earth Federation, which was very light.
But he wasn't happy, not even a smile.
"I was happy when I heard that I might win the Federal Contribution Award."
Olamp chuckled in his heart, and Xiao Li's words, combined with his expression, made him feel bad.
He wanted to stop it, but he couldn't.
It's not a film or music awards ceremony, it's not luxurious, but it's the Palais d'Eschery, the home of the French government, and all the dignitaries from all over the world are present.
In the past, Margaret Thatcher caused financial turmoil in Hong Kong when she fought in the imperial capital of China, and today he made inappropriate moves in front of many dignitaries, causing turmoil that is definitely not just a financial one.
"But I'm not happy right now."
"Interesting?"
Gently handed the wine glass to his mouth, a smile appeared in his eyes, "Winning the Federal Contribution Award, which is enough to leave a name in the textbook, actually said that I am not happy." ”
The Federal Contribution Award is not a Nobel Prize, it is not something that you can get if you have contributed to a certain field, it will only be awarded to you if you have made outstanding contributions to the entire human civilization.
But Xiao Li said that he was not happy.
Such an interesting person immediately attracted the interest of ****.
"Because when I was at Charles de Gaulle airport, I was unpopular with some people." Xiao Li didn't estimate that it was Ollump standing next to him, "I don't know why they didn't welcome me." ”
"But if it's not popular, then I don't want this trophy!"
Syllable......
The trophy fell heavily on the ground, and it fell in the hearts of many people present.
"You're crazy." Olamp screamed, this is the Aceri Palace, this is the Federal Contribution Award, all the dignitaries present are dignitaries, what did he do? He actually dropped the trophy, whose face is this slapping?
"Interesting! It's really interesting! **** lowered his head and smiled, and slowly moved towards Chairman Huaxia's position, "Your scientists, it's really interesting." ”
Chairman Hua Xia glanced at **** and said quietly: "He was blocked by some French extremists at Charles de Gaulle Airport, and his mood may not be so happy. ”
"So you dropped the trophy?" His eyes flickered.
"Young people, it's normal to be angry if you can't stand it." Chairman Hua Xia smiled faintly.
"I'm a scientist, and I refuse to walk in a country where scientists aren't welcome." Xiao Li shook off a sentence and turned around and left.
Pushing open the door of Palazzo Escherly, the breeze on his forehead cleared his mind a little.
He refuses the Federal Contribution Award, and he has no regrets.
Because a country that does not welcome scientists is not eligible to award him the Federal Contribution Award, he is a scientist first, and then the recipient.
"Xiao Li." Peng Jie, who had been protecting Xiao Li, suddenly spoke, "It's not good for you to do this!" He tactfully conveyed the chairman's opinion, "The blatant drop of the trophy at the award ceremony of the Federal Contribution Award is not only a slap in the face of Orump, but also a slap in the face of all the members of the Earth Federation." ”
The French government can not give face, but the Earth Federation cannot.
This is what Chairman Hua Xia wants to express.
No matter how strong Huaxia is, it is also a member of the Earth Federation, and it has to consider the wishes of other member countries.
"The Federal Contribution Award was voted on by all members of the Earth Federation, and the award ceremony was held at the expense of the French government."
"There are more than 300 dignitaries in the Escheri Palace."
Xiao Li recalled it carefully, and found that there were a lot of people in the Aisheli Palace, but because the living room was too big, and the dignitaries from various countries gathered together in twos and threes, it seemed that the Aisheli Palace was relatively wide.
"You dropped the trophy in front of them and hit them in the face, but don't worry, Huaxia will protect you."
Xiao Li smiled, the previous words are all false, and the latter sentence is true.
But he doesn't care, it's normal for a scientist like him to be watched by the government all the time, and if the government ignores him, he has to worry about whether the government is going to do it to him.
Just then, a phone call came, and the caller, Kip. Professor Thorne.
Kip. Why did Professor Thorne call? ”
Xiao Li pressed the answer button and immediately heard Kip. Professor Thorne's voice, "Shaw, do you know Voyager One?" ”
"Is it Voyager One, who delivers a message to extraterrestrial life on Earth?"
Xiao Li immediately remembered that Voyager 1, a probe in the process of extraterrestrial exploration in the United States.
In 2006, NASA launched a program called 'American Greetings' by launching a probe called Voyager 1 out of the solar system.
NASA has placed an information board inside the Voyager 1 probe with 115 images, including pictures of planets in the solar system, images and descriptions of human sexual organs, and a copper disk record on board.
This 12-inch copper-plated disc contains a diamond phonograph needle, which means it can exist for a billion years, and its purpose is to declare the existence of earthlings to the universe and to express the loneliness of earthlings and the greeting of extraterrestrial life.
Not only that, but it also includes a greeting from US President Jimmy Carter: "This is a gift from a small world far away." It contains our voices, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts and feelings. We are trying to live our time and enter your time. ”
"Yes." Kip. Thorne said: "Voyager 1 is back, not only is it back, but it is also back with a message from an extraterrestrial civilization. ”
"What!"
Xiao Li's footsteps stopped suddenly, and the hand he held the phone turned slightly white, "Are you saying that other civilizations have noticed the civilization of the earth?" ”
"Confused, you confused."
He stomped his foot hard.
It is still unknown whether the extraterrestrial civilization is kind or not, but after experiencing the lizard civilization and the Dark Forest, he is more inclined to extraterrestrial civilizations to be full of malice.
Now Kip. Thorne told him that the U.S. government took the initiative to transmit the coordinates of the earth's civilization to the universe, and that it had really found an extraterrestrial civilization?
Is this teasing him or teasing him?
"The plan was implemented in 2006, and we didn't think that extraterrestrial civilizations would be full of malice." Kip. Thorne was helpless, the attitude of the earth civilization at that time was friendly to aliens, because of loneliness, so they wanted to find the same intelligent life, but who would have thought that their attitude had changed dramatically in just a dozen years.
The invasion of the lizard civilization and the blow of the dark forest have made all scientists frightened, and even scientists who are fanatical about extraterrestrial exploration are wary of extraterrestrial civilizations.
"However, we sealed it as soon as we got the information from the extraterrestrial civilization." Kip. "Considering that it could be another Dark Forest Strike, the U.S. government moved him to Alamogordo Air Force Base in New Mexico." ”
Alamogordo!
The U.S. government has learned wisely.
Xiao Li sneered, Alamogordo is a desert, the world's first atomic bomb once exploded here, it is sparsely populated and heavily defended.
Even if something happens, there is a buffer in the desert that can give the U.S. government plenty of time to respond.
"I'd like to invite you to study the information Voyager One brought back."
"To the Alamogordo Desert?"
"Yes."
Xiao Li hesitated for a moment, he didn't have nothing to do, the exploration of high-dimensional space and the study of the medicine for lesions induced by cosmic radiation were very important, but .......
"Alien information!"
His curiosity was simmering.
That's an alien's message, and if you don't look at it, can his heart really be put down?
"Anyway, I've already explored the high-dimensional space, and as for the potion, I'll leave it to more professional scientists to study, and I'll better study the information of aliens."
"If something happens, I can react immediately, right?"
Making an excuse for himself, Xiao Li immediately agreed to Kip. Thorne's invitation," Kip. Professor Thorne, I'll be right here. ”
"Where are you, I'll apply for a special plane to pick you up."
"I'm coming out of the Élysée Palace in France right now, ready to go to Charles de Gaulle airport...... Fly to Charles de Gaulle airport, I'll be waiting for you there! ”
