Chapter 53: How to Reward?

The principal of Beijing Normal University was surnamed Zhang, and President Zhang was a little surprised by Cen Xian'an's arrival. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Director Cen, why do you have time to sit here today?" With a smile on his face, Principal Zhang hurriedly beckoned him to sit down.

As the director of the Department of Physics at Beijing Normal University, Cen Xian'an is also the recipient of the "Rao Yutai Physics Prize" of the Chinese Physical Society in recognition of his outstanding contributions to optics.

For Cen Xian'an, although Principal Zhang is his nominal leader, he doesn't dare to really put on a leadership stand.

Cen Xian'an shook the "Science" magazine in his hand, and said to Principal Zhang with a happy face: "Principal, I'm here to send you good news!" ”

"Oh? Could it be that some teacher in our school has published a signed article in Science? Principal Zhang glanced at the magazine in his hand, and probably guessed why Cen Xian'an was so happy, "Look at Director Cen's appearance, the author of this article is still from your physics department." ”

"Almost......" Cen Xian'an handed the magazine to Principal Zhang, "Principal Zhang, you take a look at this paper first, and then talk about it after reading it!" ”

"Then I'd like to take a look." President Zhang took the magazine suspiciously, and he took a general look at the table of contents, and soon found the only paper in it that conformed to the Chinese habit of writing names.

"Huh? Could it be this paper written by 'ZHOU, CHEN'? Boy! It's actually a cover article! Principal Zhang reacted at this time, but he didn't expect the author called "ZHOU, chen" to actually post a cover article!

As we all know, such a well-known journal as "Science" and "Nature", its cover paper requirements are extremely high, if the paper that can be published in "Science" and "Nature" is already a good paper, then in order to become a cover paper, at least it must be the best of the best, and the people who can write this kind of paper are all masters!

Although President Zhang is not a pure person in the scientific community, he has been dealing with education all the year round, and he still knows a lot about the rules and tricks in it.

"Director Cen, don't sell it, tell me which professor the author of this paper is!" Principal Zhang said in a serious tone, when it comes to the positive publicity of the school, he doesn't have time to joke with Cen Xian'an.

"Professor?" Cen Xian'an couldn't help laughing, "Principal Zhang, you guessed wrong. ”

"Not a professor, but an associate professor?"

"That's not right! Let me tell you the truth, the author of this paper is actually a lecturer who was just hired by our Department of Physics this year! ”

"Lecturer?" President Zhang looked incredulous, you must know that in Beijing Normal University, there are only so many people who have the ability to write this kind of paper, if this author does not have the title of professor, he thinks it is incredible, how can he be just a lecturer?

BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT THIS PERSON NAMED 'ZHOU, CHEN', HE REALLY HASN'T HEARD OF IT.

"That's right, it's the lecturer! And he's only twenty-five years old! Cen Xian'an said with some smugness.

"President Zhang, you are not engaged in scientific research, you may not know the value of his paper, in this paper he perfectly demonstrated the mathematical derivation of black hole thermodynamics, and there is a core content in black hole thermodynamics is the 'Hawking radiation' proposed by Hawking."

"Zhou Chen's demonstration of black hole thermodynamics is equivalent to drawing a perfect end to this branch of discipline, and his contribution is no less than that of Hawking's 'Hawking radiation'! Combined with the sensation caused by the paper itself, if I am not wrong, he has a good chance of winning the Chinese Physical Society Prize next year! ”

"Is it so powerful?"

Principal Zhang couldn't help but be a little moved, and his face showed a hint of joy.

He knows Hawking radiation, and under the bombardment of the media, this is already a household name, if the results of the paper are really as Cen Xian'an said, can surpass Hawking radiation, no, even if it can be compared with Hawking radiation, it is already a very remarkable thing.

Not to mention the opportunity to win the Chinese Physical Society Award, which is the highest honor in the Chinese physics community and symbolizes the strength of the hard state!

As Zhou Chen's work unit, Beijing Normal University can naturally share this honor.

The Chinese Physical Society Award is a domestic award sponsored by the Chinese Physical Society, it has a total of eight awards, which are selected every two years, and no more than two awards are awarded each time, and the winner of each award is generally one person. The requirements for the award vary depending on the award, and must have been completed within two to five years before the selection, or several years ago, but its importance has not been apparent until nearly two years.

According to the award process, the recommendation and selection of winning candidates must be completed one year before the award, and the next award will be in 2017, in other words, the nomination and selection of this round of physics awards have begun this year.

"Hey, Principal Zhang, Director Cen, what makes you happy like this?"

At this time, a loud voice came, and it turned out to be the party secretary of Beijing Normal University who walked in.

Secretary Liu originally wanted to discuss with President Zhang about the party-government joint meeting to be held tomorrow, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw President Zhang and Director Cen talking and laughing, and their faces were full of excitement.

"It's a good thing, a very good thing!" President Zhang handed over the "Science" magazine with a smile on his face, "I think it won't be long before our Beijing Normal University will face a battle with reporters!" ”

As he spoke, he told Secretary Liu about the papers in Science.

Secretary Liu was amazed, he took "Science" and read it carefully, and couldn't help but be silent after reading it.

"This is the best result of our school in recent years, but it's a pity...... The mailing address of this article is the School of Physical Sciences of UCAS, not our school. Secretary Liu sighed regretfully.

Principal Zhang nodded: "Although it is not written in our school, but now the author is a lecturer in our school, and he should be able to win a lot of impression points." ”

"What's in mind on the Headmaster's side?"

"I heard Director Cen say that this paper has caused a very big sensation in the theoretical community, so we might as well take advantage of this trend to hype it up. Last year, a graduate student's paper at the school next door was published by Nature, but it was more than two months of trouble, and this time the teacher of our school came up with the cover article of Science, and there is no reason not to follow them! ”

When Secretary Liu heard this, he said approvingly: "The principal has a point! I will arrange for the people from the Propaganda Department of the Party Committee to do this, and the news center here in the school can also be active. ”

"Don't worry, our news center is experienced in a hundred battles, and we have seen a lot of this kind of scene!"

Although the development of the Internet has also brought about the prevalence of rumors, it has to be said that if everyone can speak rationally, the value of the Internet is immeasurable.

"By the way, what is the current situation of this Zhou Chen, and how should we reward him?" Secretary Liu thought of the main owner of this paper, so he looked at Principal Zhang with an inquiring eye.

"This is a bit difficult to do, according to the fact that he has written such a high-quality paper, we should give him recognition and reward, but after all, this paper was written before he came to Beijing Normal University, and he is now both a doctoral student and a lecturer...... "President Zhang looked at Cen Xian'an again.

"Director Cen, what do you think?"

Cen Xian'an thought for a while: "The so-called eclectic talent, since he has made contributions, then we have to reward him, although this paper was written before he came to Beijing Normal University, but this can't change the fact that he belongs to Beijing Normal University!" His success is also the success of Beijing Normal University! ”

"It's not as good as this, in terms of honor, we can nominate him as this year's 'Outstanding Young Worker', although it is false, but it is better than nothing, and we can give a certain reward in terms of material!"

"I think so." Principal Zhang nodded.

"Then arrange it like this." Secretary Liu also agreed.

"By the way, isn't he going to take an elective course in Astrophysics this semester? I don't think it's as good as this, the class will continue to open, but we can record his class with equipment and put it on the school's official website! ”

"It's a good thing, but it needs his own consent, and after all, it's the first time to start a class, and I don't know what the specific effect will be......"

Cen Xian'an said with some concern.
