Chapter 284: Academic freedom, breaking monopoly
Galaxy Technology.
After Wang Donglai gave instructions, Lu Tu and others soaked in the laboratory as excitedly as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
Some simple, repetitive and tedious tasks are left to the interns of Tangdu Jiaotong University.
As for these researchers, they focused most of their attention on several research directions mentioned by Wang Donglai.
However.
Scientific research is never something that can be accomplished overnight.
Even though Wang Donglai has given several research directions, which are very feasible in theory, if you really put them into experiments, you will find that there are still many problems, and it is far from a real breakthrough.
In the past few days, Lu Tu and the others were completely absorbed in the laboratory.
With enthusiasm and passion, he continued to conduct experiments, and with the assistance of a team of interns, he completed more than 300 sets of experiments in one go.
However, none of the experiments made effective progress.
In the laboratory.
The atmosphere was extremely gloomy, and several people were in a very low mood.
And in this depression, there is still a bit of doubt.
As researchers, they have experienced too many experimental failures, and this setback is far from a big problem.
If it hadn't been for Wang Donglai's words, they might have had a normal mentality and wouldn't have been so uncomfortable.
However, they are all research talents with profound knowledge reserves. They can clearly understand that the research direction proposed by Wang Donglai can achieve project research progress, but the experiment failed.
More than three hundred groups of experiments, various factors have been considered, but no group has made effective progress.
This undoubtedly greatly dampened their enthusiasm for scientific research.
As the oldest among everyone and the senior of everyone, Lu Tu stood up at this moment and encouraged everyone: "Okay, let's sort out our emotions and stop thinking about it. ”
"The research direction given by Professor Wang has been discussed and demonstrated by us. From a theoretical point of view, it is very feasible."
"Although our experiments have not made any effective progress, this is not It cannot be said that the research direction given by Professor Wang is problematic. I think the most important thing we should do now is not to hang our heads here, but to review it again."
"Three hundred sets of experiments were not successful, then. us Just do four hundred and five hundred sets.”
“As long as the direction is correct, every failure means we are one step closer to success.”
When we say this. , Lu Tu paused deliberately, and then said: "If that doesn't work, we can also ask Professor Wang for advice. I believe that Professor Wang's ability will definitely be able to find some problems through the data we collected."
< br>
"You shouldn't have any doubts about this, right?"
When Lu Tu asked this, everyone shook their heads in tacit agreement.
They have been conducting experiments like chicken blood these days, which is partly due to the excitement of the news that Wang Donglai proved Haibing's conjecture.
"Okay, in that case, let's continue the experiment, record all the data, and have a calm mind."
"We are all old people who have seen the world and are in the laboratory. Yes, this problem has given us the direction of research. As long as we maintain a good attitude and take one step at a time, the success of the experiment is inevitable!”
Lu Tu clapped his hands and cheered to everyone.
......
Time passed, and soon it was time for "The Future of Mathematics" to be published.
At this time, some news suddenly appeared on foreign academic media platforms.
[Academics need freedom and communication, rather than choosing to isolate themselves due to nationality! 】
[Today’s world is open and free, and academic research needs to be open-minded. 】
【Knowledge has no nationality. It is sad if a professor only wants to use his academic achievements to do things other than academics! 】
【It is impossible to cultivate a great scholar by working behind closed doors, and when a scholar chooses to work behind closed doors, he is destined to fail to become a great scholar. 】
One article after another was sent out.
Although he did not mention his name directly, anyone who reads these articles will know that they are criticizing Wang Donglai.
Although the authors of these articles are not the same person, the meanings in the articles are surprisingly consistent.
That is to criticize Wang Donglai for publishing his academic proof paper in "Mathematical Future", believing that it is a waste and lack of academic freedom.
Obviously Goldbach’s conjecture and Hail conjecture are famous mathematical problems all over the world. They have troubled scholars around the world for many years. They have both symbolic and practical significance. They are the fruits of civilization belonging to mankind around the world. .
As a result, after Wang Donglai proved it, he did not publish the proof paper in international journals, but published it in the journal he founded. He used his academic proof paper as a tool to improve the journal he founded. The authority of academic journals.
This behavior is undoubtedly a betrayal of the concept of global academic freedom!
Some articles have strong words, taking this behavior online and severely criticizing it.
Some articles are slightly more toned down, but they also disagree with this behavior.
Wang Donglai’s name does not appear once in the entire article, but everyone who reads it knows that it is directed at Wang Donglai.
With the appearance of these articles, a commotion immediately arose.
The efficiency of information exchange in modern society is far faster than in the past.
When these signs first appeared internationally, many people in China knew about it.
In China, attitudes towards these articles are also different.
Some people agree with what these articles say and believe that academics must face the world and cannot be trapped in one company. It is a complete waste for such influential academic proof to be published in newly established domestic journals. .
If published in top international journals, it can not only enhance the academic image of our country, but also promote domestic academic progress and increase academic discourse power.
There are not a few people who hold this idea.
Of course, some scholars do not agree with the claims of these articles.
It is no secret that the Bald Eagle holds an academic monopoly and uses its right to speak to harvest advanced technologies and research ideas from around the world.
Although some of the most advanced technologies and concepts will never be written down or published.
However, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, and the intelligence and wisdom of countless scholars around the world have come together to make the scientific research speed and results of Bald Eagle surpass those of other countries.
So, now I see these articles that accuse Wang Donglai without naming him.
These scholars were naturally angry.
As the protagonist of this incident, Wang Donglai did not pay too much attention to these things.
Because, what the enemy opposes happens to mean that he is doing the right thing.
Of course, he understands better that if the rule that domestic professors use papers as the evaluation standard is not abolished, Bald Eagle's academic monopoly will not stop. Only after I truly build "The Future of Mathematics" into a top journal and domestic universities change the evaluation rules will things turn around.
The experimental status of Lu Tu and others was also reported to Wang Donglai by Chen Lingyue.
Looking at the curve images and other data in his hands, Wang Donglai quickly had a general understanding of everyone's experiments.
With the blessing of various abilities, it is no exaggeration to say that Wang Donglai is no worse than a robot at this moment.
The brain is extremely intelligent and information processing is extremely fast.
In his hands, he can completely remember the complicated data and information with just one glance, and quickly get all the desired information in his mind.
After reading it, Wang Donglai just frowned slightly, thought for a while, and then relaxed his brows.
Obviously, he already had some calculations in his mind, so he told Chen Lingyue: "Brother Chen, ask Lu Tu and the others to prepare some failed samples. I can use them!"
"Okay!"
Chen Lingyue nodded in agreement and did not ask why he did this.
Soon, Chen Lingyue gave the order.
At the same time, the two of them were heading towards the laboratory.
While walking on the road, Chen Lingyue looked at Wang Donglai two or three times, as if he had something to say.
"Brother Chen, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
Wang Donglai naturally noticed Chen Lingyue's changes and said aloud.
“Mr. Wang, I just think you are like this!”
After saying that, Chen Lingyue gave a thumbs up and said sincerely.
“Although I am not a student of mathematics, I also know what mathematical problems represent. Mr. Wang, if you can prove so many mathematical problems, you must be a smart person. If it is just like this, it may not make you happy. I admire it.”
“Even if it is Galaxy Technology established by Mr. Wang, although these are excellent achievements, in my eyes, they are far less than what Mr. Wang wants to create. The courage of a top international academic journal. "
"Academics are free, why should we let them evaluate our academic research and affect the direction of academic research?"
"Let them. There is no such thing in the world as holding academic monopoly and discourse power, hindering academic research in other countries, but not allowing other countries to establish top journals.”
"There are also some stupid people in China, who are either stupid or bad. Some of them are highly bound to foreign countries, and they will definitely speak for Waiguoren, even if it is to confuse right and wrong. Mr. Wang, although I am not a researcher, I understand very well that a person who belongs to us The significance of my own top academic journal. "
"So, I hope Mr. Wang can stick to it and not be affected by some people's words."
Chen Lingyue thought for a while and then became a little cautious. said.
Hearing what Chen Lingyue said, Wang Donglai showed a smile on his face and said: "Brother Chen, thank you for your concern!"
"In fact, I have known about these situations for a long time. It will happen, and I would be surprised if something like this didn’t happen!”
"The more they shout like this, it proves that I am doing the right thing. If they praise me, it proves that I am doing the wrong thing."
"What's more, a group of them are hiding behind and don't dare to show up. , and a courageous person with no ability, what do I have to be afraid of!"
Wang Donglai spoke easily and did not take these online criticisms seriously at all.
The look on Chen Lingyue's face was slightly relieved, but he continued: "Mr. Wang, you still can't underestimate those people. They may not be able to do things, but they can do bad things."
Wang Donglai nodded, indicating that he knew.
After that, there was no talking the whole way, and the two of them soon arrived in the laboratory.
Because of the instructions, the materials and equipment have already been prepared in the laboratory.
Lu Tu and others were waiting for Wang Donglai with anticipation.
When we met, Wang Donglai did not exchange greetings, but said straight to the point: "I have read all the experimental data you have done, and there is no problem with the theory. As for why the experiment was not successful, it may be that the experimental steps appeared. It’s a problem, but don’t worry, I’ll test those samples later.”
Wang Donglai looked calm, with a vigorous and resolute aura, which instantly made the atmosphere in the laboratory solemn.
Lu Tu and others were also affected by this momentum, and their expressions became serious, like students facing their teacher.
On the platform, samples are arranged neatly one by one.
Galaxy Technology's laboratory costs a lot of money. It cannot be said that it has all the experimental equipment, but the necessary experimental equipment is available and they are all the best.
Lu Tu and others were also very discerning and started processing the samples while Wang Donglai was busy doing other things.
These samples were originally processed by Lu Tu and others, and now they are processing them again, naturally they are very handy.
Take out the unknown black powder from the glass bottle, mix it with the ionized water, and shake it slowly.
It seems simple, but it is not simple.
The laboratory should not only pay attention to equipment and equipment, but also be careful of these experimental materials.
So, even if it was something like a hollow carbon ball, Lu Tu and others were not careless when handling it, and they still looked extremely serious.
After mixing and shaking, ultrasonic dispersion is also required.
Finally, use a plastic-tipped dropper to take a sample, drop it on the copper sheet, and then observe it through a scanning electron microscope.
After all the work was prepared, Wang Donglai began to operate the equipment and began to observe.
As modern scientific researchers, in addition to mathematicians, other physicists, chemists, or biologists must master a skill.
That is the operation of equipment and instruments.
Even if Wang Donglai has a system, this is unavoidable.
Fortunately, he learned how to operate most of the experimental instruments in the laboratory of Tangdu Jiaotong University.
At this moment, there is no problem in operating the scanning electron microscope.
While Wang Donglai was operating the scanning electron microscope, Lu Tu and others were watching carefully, their eyes full of expectation.
Although Lu Tu didn't quite understand why he had such high expectations for Wang Donglai, it was clear that Wang Donglai was just a mathematician.
However, Lu Tu had a feeling in his heart that Wang Donglai would bring a surprise.
Not only Lu Tu, but also everyone else in the laboratory at this moment, including Chen Lingyue, all had such an idea.
It was strange and sudden, but several people did not feel surprised, but took it for granted.
Just when everyone felt this way, Wang Donglai also completed the observation work at this moment, and then just waited for the results.
