Chapter 210 Refusal to accept the award, a storm arose
As time went by, it was almost late March, and it was almost time for the Abel Prize to be announced.
Because of the previous Wolf Prize in Mathematics, Wang Donglai, as the first pure Chinese to win the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, naturally aroused expectations in the mathematics community and wanted to know whether Wang Donglai would continue Get this Abel Prize.
The Abel Prize is a major award in mathematics established by Norway to commemorate the bicentenary of the birth of our famous mathematician Niels Henrik Abel.
Awarded once a year, the Norwegian government allocates 200 million kronor as start-up capital.
A committee of five mathematicians from the Norwegian Academy of Natural Sciences and Letters announces the winner, with a prize similar to that of the Nobel Prize.
It is rumored that this award was set up because the Nobel Prize does not have a mathematics award.
In 2003, the first winner was announced and received the prize in June of the same year.
So far, the Abel Prize has been established for 12 years and has been awarded 11 times.
The winner of the 2013 Abel Prize is Professor Deligne of Princeton.
Therefore, whether the 2014 Abel Prize winner will be Wang Donglai has naturally attracted the attention of many mathematical scholars.
But, at this time.
Xu Songyao found Wang Donglai.
"Principal, if you need anything, please tell me. I will just go and find you. Why do you ask you to come to me in person?"
Seeing Xu Songyao coming to the door in person, Wang Donglai He was immediately flattered and said.
"Okay, it's just the two of us, so let's stop pretending to be polite."
"Are you so busy lately that you forgot to check your mailbox?"
Sit down After that, Xu Songyao asked directly.
"Principal, has something happened?" Wang Donglai asked curiously. As he asked, he turned on the computer and started checking his mailbox.
“The Wolf Jury sent an email and couldn’t contact you, so they found me after a long process.”
"The meaning is very simple, that is, they asked you if you are not going to receive the award?"
Xu Songyao did not pretend to be mysterious and said it directly.
At this time, Wang Donglai also found the official email from the Wolff Mathematics Prize jury.
After reading it quickly, Wang Donglai looked up at Xu Songyao and said: "Principal, you know, I don't have much time recently. At this time, lithium-ion battery technology has also made some progress. What's next? More experiments need to be carried out and the fundamental approach is to "I won't open it."
"He has already announced this award. Is it possible that he still regrets withdrawing it? He probably just asked me and mailed the trophy to me, but he can't really do it. Disqualify me from winning the award.”
Wang Donglai said nonchalantly.
Actually, in his mind, this award is not important at all. If it were not for the recognition of this by mathematics scholars and the fact that no one in the country has won the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, he would fill the gap and enhance the national self-confidence. He won't treat it coldly.
Refuse to accept the award directly, how domineering it is!
It would be really frustrating for a man with a system to have his own feelings subdued for a prize.
Xu Songyao was not surprised when he heard Wang Donglai's words, because he had discussed this topic with Wang Donglai last time.
"That's okay. Your name has been announced for the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, so it won't be withdrawn."
"The Abel Prize in Mathematics is coming soon. I'm a little worried that you refuse to accept the Wolf Prize." , which will make those arrogant Western Europeans unhappy and unwilling to award this award to you.”
"As for the Fields Medal in the second half of the year, most people will not do this, but if you refuse to accept it, it will still be a bit bad. You can seriously consider it. Taking a day or two aside will not have much impact on your research. Influence? "
In the end, Xu Songyao still persuaded him earnestly.
Seeing what Xu Songyao said, Wang Donglai naturally couldn’t deal with him anymore, so his expression became somewhat serious and said: "Principal, I wonder what you think of the nation of Judah? What about that country? What do you think? ”
Xu Songyao was a little strange. He didn't know why Wang Donglai asked this question. He just thought about it for a moment and expressed his impression of this nation and country.
As Wang Donglai expected, Xu Songyao was full of sympathy and admiration for this nation and this country.
After clearing his throat, Wang Donglai told Xu Songyao some unknown things about this nation.
“Principal, in fact, this nation is not as good as advertised. There are some things that others want us to see so that we can see them. Just like this nation, it has been the best at packaging and publicity since ancient times. Himself."
"Why do the people of Judah value education, have good genes, have many geniuses, and are very rich?"
"But none of this can change the reality, that is, from ancient times to the present, their nation has been discriminated against. If you dig deeper, you will find that all this is actually caused by them."
"Religion On the street, others set up statues of gods, and they shouted that I Like worshiping heinous crimes; others advocate the equality of all people, and they say that they are 'God's chosen people' and insist on being superior to others; they deliberately discredit the good gods worshiped by others as evil gods who eat children."
"Economically, Europe. During the Great Depression, speculation pushed prices higher Lidai, it contributed to the financial crisis in 2008. "
"Culturally, he promotes fraternity and loves others as he loves himself, but in fact he only loves himself. When he encounters persecution, he will do his best to the whole world. , after the restoration of the country, he exposed his true nature, expanded greedily, and committed massacres. Kill.”
“In fact, many people are surrounded by information cocoon walls and do not have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, so they feel that this nation is really miserable and is being persecuted by the whole world. In fact, It’s all their fault.”
"I don't want to receive this award. It is also for this reason that what they did will inevitably be exposed one day later."
"If this award is just a simple award, this is That's all, but it happens to be That’s not the case, it’s their president who awards the award, and I don’t want to have too much interaction with them.”
“If this is the case, it’s okay not to accept the award.”
Listen! After finishing Wang Donglai’s narration, Xu Song Yao finally understood it completely, and looked at Wang Donglai with a strange look. He pondered for a moment before speaking out: "Are you thinking too far?"
"Not far, there are many now. Everyone thinks that the global village will The world will develop closer and closer, but I don’t think so. Geopolitics, ethnic conflicts, historical hatreds, and economic relations will all undergo huge changes in the future. By then, things that are inconspicuous at the moment will become boomerangs.”
"What's more, it's just a Wolf Prize in Mathematics. He wants to award the award to me to prove its fairness and authority, rather than me rushing to seek this award to gild myself. . ”
“If it withdraws the award for me, other awards will probably laugh to death. He is not the only one who wants to monopolize the Nobel Prize in mathematics!”
Wang Donglai! He acted very calmly and his tone was very firm.
Hearing what Wang Donglai said, Xu Songyao completely gave up trying to persuade.
"Okay, since you don't want to go, but there's no need to be so deadlocked, just send them an email back and say that you don't have time to receive the award, and leave the choice to them."
"In my opinion, they probably won't revoke your award. After all, they have already announced that you are the winner of this year's mathematics award. If they withdraw it and reissue it, they will undoubtedly offend you and another person. . ”
Wang Donglai did not refuse Xu Songyao’s proposal, but simply nodded and agreed.
“I can still do this without taking the initiative, refusing, or taking responsibility.”
Xu Songyao shook his head helplessly. If he hadn’t heard Wang Donglai say this, he really wouldn’t have Know about the nation of Judah.
As for whether what Wang Dong said is true or false, Xu Songyao also has his own judgment.
At the very least, major media outlets around the world are saying good things about the nation of Judah, which is abnormal.
As an academician, Xu Songyao is naturally a smart person among smart people.
With just a little judgment, we can only know that what Wang Donglai said is mostly correct. I couldn't help but feel a sense of disgust towards the nation of Judah.
"By the way, I heard that your lithium-ion battery project has been successful again?" Xu Songyao changed the topic and asked Wang Donglai about the lithium-ion battery.
"Good luck, a little breakthrough!" Wang Donglai replied with a smile.
Hearing this answer, Xu Songyao said angrily: "Even if it is luck, it is also your strength."
"What are the specific parameters?"
Wang Donglai's expression also became serious, and he introduced it by saying: "The performance of this battery It has 27% more capacity than the same type of battery on the market. If the number of charges and discharges is the same, the power loss is reduced by 88%. "
"At the same time, the manufacturing cost of this battery has not increased significantly. Compared with the performance, the cost has only increased by 8%.”
Wang Donglai did not keep Xu Songyao secret and directly revealed the core data.
"Well, have you done the crash test and high temperature test? What are the results?"
Xu Songyao nodded and asked about other test results.
“These experiments have been done and the results are good. Compared with the products on the market, of the same type, our quality is the best. For the same price, our data performance is the best. For the same quality, ours The cost is low.”
Before conducting the experiment, Wang Donglai purchased all the mainstream products on the market through Galaxy Technology and tested them.
Therefore, these comparisons are also true and valid.
After hearing this, Xu Songyao looked at Wang Donglai with more and more admiration in his eyes.
"It seems that the most correct thing our school has done over the years is to recruit you."
"No wonder you have such thoughts. Now I suddenly feel that you want to What you are doing is not impossible. If you keep this pace, you may really be able to improve your technology and change society through your own efforts."
Xu Songyao said with a serious expression.
Regarding Xu Songyao's emotion, Wang Donglai was not modest and polite.
Because he knows his potential and abilities very well, it is only a matter of time before he can achieve this.
“Our school will always be your backing. If you need any laboratory or talent support in the future, just report it to the school. Even if you are an alumni developing abroad, if you need it, the school can help you. You contact.”
“You can also leave some chores to the school, and you can just do research with peace of mind.”
As the vice president of Tangdu Jiaotong University, Xu Songyao is more or less a cadre at the department level. , enjoy the treatment of deputy department.
In fact, there is no need to speak so directly, but I still said it to Wang Donglai so directly.
Wang Donglai also knew that this was because his performance was getting better and better, and Tangdu Jiaotong University began to bet on him.
Support yourself vigorously and do whatever you can to support yourself.
If a top university supports one person wholeheartedly, the energy it can unleash is unimaginable.
And now, Wang Donglai is lucky enough to receive such treatment.
Faced with the goodwill released by Xu Songyao on behalf of Tangdu Jiaotong University, Wang Donglai naturally chose to accept it. After all, this was his purpose in itself.
After Xu Songyao left, Wang Donglai started typing on the computer and quickly replied an email to the Wolf Prize official.
After the email was sent, he no longer cared about it.
However, Wang Donglai did not expect it.
Just one day later, news suddenly spread on the Internet abroad that Wang Donglai refused to go to Israel to accept the award and refused to receive the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately surpassed the popularity of Wang Donglai's winning of the Wolf Prize in Mathematics. Within a few hours, it became a hot search and the headline of major news media portals.
After all, the fact that a pure Easterner actually won this award made some white people who claim white supremacy and discriminate against yellow people feel uncomfortable.
Now, suddenly seeing the news announced by the Wolf Foundation, some people with malicious intentions immediately sensed an opportunity.
In the past, Wang Donglai’s results were really impressive.
Prove the ABC conjecture and reject Sakura Kuni Mochizuki’s proven inference theory.
Proving Hodge's conjecture, it attracted thousands of scholars from all over the world to come to China.
Princeton Academic Exchange, publicly proved Zhou's conjecture and found the accurate distribution law and formula of Mersenne prime numbers.
The most important thing is that Wang Donglai was only eighteen or nineteen years old when he did this.
Anyone who is not a fool can see that Wang Donglai's future achievements will be far more than this.
So, even these dissatisfied people are dissatisfied with Wang Donglai's award, but they don't know how to find fault.
However, the opportunity just came.
This becomes a good excuse to refuse to accept the Wolf Prize in Mathematics.
Soon, Twitter and Facebook were full of comments calling for Wang Donglai to be disqualified from winning the award.
There were not many speeches made for Wang Donglai, and he was soon submerged in a large number of criticisms and disqualification speeches.
Things that happened abroad did not take long to spread back to China.
Right now is the time when smartphones are exploding.
So information spreads quickly on the Internet.
What's more, Wang Donglai, an Internet celebrity professor who has been on the hot search every few days, is even more eye-catching, especially since he has billions of wealth.
When the news first appeared, Xu Songyao contacted Wang Donglai and asked if Tangdu Jiaotong University would need to come forward to resolve the matter, but Wang Donglai refused.
Although the news posted by the Wolf Foundation is that it will not go to Israel to receive the award in person.
However, in the announcement on the official website, it was revealed that Wang Donglai refused to accept the Wolf Prize in Mathematics, and the Wolf Foundation even expressed regret for this, vaguely intending to revoke the award.
So, this news came out.
After knowing the cause and effect, Wang Donglai was not surprised.
Even this situation was within his expectation. Although the form has changed, the essence has not.
If no one deliberately stirred up trouble, this matter would not have spread so quickly, and there would not have been so many people unitedly asking the Wolf Foundation to disqualify Wang Donglai from winning the award and revoke his award.
In China, no one criticized Wang Donglai at first for refusing to accept the Wolf Prize in Mathematics. They just felt regretful and expressed confusion.
But as time passed and time fermented, the comment trend changed.
