Naturally, it is only an academic journal after all, so during the interview, more attention was paid to academic research.
For example, it is Wang Donglai’s experience in researching lithium-sulfur batteries, and another example is the idea of developing semi-solid-state batteries.
As the editor-in-chief of the journal, Martin is not a qualified host.
However, there is no doubt about his academic ability.
The questions raised are step by step and get to the core.
If Wang Donglai was not the real developer, he might not be able to withstand Martin's inquiry.
Fortunately, Wang Donglai has real talent and knowledge, so he can deal with it easily and talk without any problems.
The interview did not take long and was completed in just one hour.
After the interview, Martin also made a special request to visit the laboratory of Tangdu Jiaotong University and the research center of Galaxy Technology.
Faced with Martin's request, Xu Songyao naturally would not refuse.
To be fair, the fact that Nature editor-in-chief Martin visited the laboratory at Jiaotong University in Tangdu is also a matter of added glory.
As for the request to visit the Galaxy Science and Technology Research Center, Wang Donglai agreed after thinking about it for a while.
After all, most of the academic achievements produced by Galaxy Technology are the most important and core parts that Wang Donglai is responsible for. The parts that are really responsible for the engineers of the Galaxy Technology Research Center are just some unimportant peripheral parts. thing.
These things are not sensitive, so letting Martin visit them will not have much impact.
The reason why Wang Donglai agreed to this request after thinking about it was because of the sensitivity of Martin's foreign status.
It's obvious.
Martin also knew that there was not much worth paying attention to in the laboratory of Tangdu Jiaotong University. During the visit, although he said a lot of promising things, his expression and movements still showed a trace of contempt and perfunctoryness. mean.
When it came to Galaxy Technology, it showed a completely different attitude.
Seriously!
Looking forward to it!
With this attitude, Martin, led by Wang Donglai, visited the research center of Galaxy Technology.
“This is just a temporary research center for our company. Our company has already acquired a piece of land. In the future, we will build a research and development center at the same time as the company headquarters building.”
"Our company has always had the greatest respect and support for talents, and the treatment and benefits we give to talents are completely different from ordinary employees."
"Technology is the first born Productivity, contemporary society, technological breakthroughs will drive changes in more fields, put the most energy into breakthroughs in science and technology, let more people enjoy the convenience brought by science and technology, and let more people enjoy life , enjoy technology, this is our company’s vision!”
“Many of our company’s R&D personnel have returned from studying abroad, bringing advanced management experience and advanced concepts from abroad... ”
As the host, Wang Donglai was naturally responsible for the explanation.
While Martin was visiting carefully, he was also asking questions aloud.
“Academician Wang, I noticed that your company does not seem to have much overseas business. It directly licenses overseas patents and does not build R&D centers overseas. Just as Academician Wang did not study overseas. "
"Combined with Academician Wang's previous refusal to submit articles to international journals such as "Annals of Mathematics", can I understand that Academician Wang has a resistance to foreign countries? "
No one thought that, Martin would suddenly ask such a question.
Xu Songyao's expression suddenly became serious, because a poor answer to Martin's question is likely to have a bad backlash on Wang Donglai's reputation.
Just when Xu Songyao felt nervous, Wang Donglai laughed out loud and said: "Martin's question surprised me."
"Logically speaking, this I shouldn't have answered the question, but for the sake of Martin Mr. Martin came all the way from Bald Eagle to do this interview. Let me just say a few words.”
“Galaxy Technology does not have much overseas business, but it is not none. If Mr. Martin pays attention, You can see us putting it on shelves in overseas markets I have developed a short video product, and I believe that this software will become a popular product, and I am very confident about it.”
“As for building R&D centers overseas, this is indeed true. , because at this stage, Galaxy Technology’s customers are mainly from the domestic market, so we will definitely focus a lot of energy on the domestic market. As for the overseas market, we have adopted patent authorization to cooperate with international giants. Therefore, the construction of an R&D center is naturally unnecessary.”
"As for me not studying abroad, I think this may be because of my talent in mathematics. I don't need to do this anymore."
"Many internationally renowned universities, including Princeton, have sent me I received an invitation letter, inviting me to be a professor, and some even offered attractive conditions. If I am willing, I can be elected as an academician. "
"There is no doubt that I will. I chose to refuse because the reason is very simple. These things are not helpful to my academic research.”
“Although I am not a complete scholar and put all my energy into academics, I am. I think a scholar should not waste his energy on this kind of thing."
Both Martin and Xu Songyao were speechless when they heard Wang Dong came to Versailles.
Whether you are selected as an academician by another country or serve as a professor at a prestigious international school like Princeton, it is a great opportunity for people in academia.
I don’t know how many people are fighting for a professorship.
Not to mention Wang Donglai’s treatment.
For a while, Martin became a little autistic.
However, he was the editor-in-chief of the journal after all. He had seen the world and quickly calmed down.
"Academician Wang, from your performance and some business activities, I can clearly sense that you seem to be extremely wary of the bald eagle, such as my semiconductor localization project."
“In the current era of economic globalization , global economic cooperation is extremely close, each country divides labor and cooperates, heavy industry and light industry, plus high-tech fields and entertainment industries, so many industries require the cooperation of talents, resources, markets and policies to develop. "< br>
“Expensive China has the largest population in the world and the most promising market. After so many years of development, great changes have taken place. The economy has taken off, and the per capita income of the people has also increased several times. These are all factors brought about by economic globalization. Changes to come.”
< br>"But now, Academician Wang is promoting the idea of countering economic globalization, and is actually doing so. I wonder if there is any misunderstanding about this?"
Hear Martin's question, and then seeing Martin's serious and sincere look on his face.
Wang Donglai was even a little angry and laughed.
"Mr. Martin, first of all, I need to make it clear that I receive you because you are the editor-in-chief of the Nature academic journal. Out of respect among academics, I rushed back from the capital to accept you. "Originally, the conversation between you and me should be limited to the academic field, but you mentioned it many times outside the academic field. I didn’t say much before, but chose to answer.”
“Now, you have raised these topics that have nothing to do with academics again, and I shouldn’t have answered them. "
"But since you are a guest, I will answer for the last time."
"We are a big country, a complete country with independent rights. We have the right to strive for a more developed and better living environment."
"We have a population of 1.4 billion, which has brought great consequences The huge market advantage has also caused huge poverty alleviation problems.”
“Today, our country’s per capita meat, egg and milk levels are among the highest in the world. The backwardness is even more obvious, especially when compared with our status as a big country.”
“If we want to change this situation, we must try our best to develop and create jobs. Promote employment and expand the market.”
“It is a good way to make the cake bigger and let everyone eat the cake.”
"Every year, we spend trillions of dollars in the semiconductor field, and these turn into profits for your country."
"The so-called economic globalization actually just allows us to act as a world factory. Their role is to provide cheap products and earn small profits, while the huge price difference is quietly plundered by developed countries.”
“Such economic globalization is unreasonable. , unreasonable things will not persist If it continues for too long, the global economy will see a trend of de-globalization."
"I am just doing this to prepare for a rainy day!"
"Trillions of semiconductors. Market, if our local independent brands can capture part of the market, the trillion-dollar market and the up-and-down industrial chain will create direct employment for millions of people, indirect employment for tens of millions, and many industries. Prosperity.”
“I am a scholar and a businessman, but my most fundamental identity is that of a Chinese!”
“Our country has thousands of years of civilized history and has been glorious for thousands of years. The glory of our ancestors is still there. It was not inherited by us in modern times. Now, I think all Chinese people have a desire in their hearts to make China once again The dream of rejuvenation.”
“I believe that as national strength increases, this spontaneous national sentiment will only become stronger and stronger, and at the same time, the possibility of achieving this will also increase. !”
When Wang Donglai said these words, he looked very confident and full of confidence.
At Xu Songyao's age, he has witnessed the various stages of development of China with his own eyes and has come from hard times, so he is particularly touched.
So even though he had been calm for a long time due to work, he still looked agitated at the moment.
As for Mr. Martin, he was obviously a little surprised by Wang Donglai's answer.
The reason why he raised such a question was just to test Wang Donglai.
However, he did not expect that Wang Donglai would directly open the door.
Based on Wang Donglai’s answer, how could Martin not understand.
Wang Donglai is fundamentally a nationalist.
While feeling surprised, Martin was also relieved.
As long as you know what kind of person Wang Donglai is, the rest will be simple.
“Academician Wang, I’m sorry for dragging the topic outside of academic circles.”
“I just wanted to know you better, that’s why I asked so many questions. Extra Topics ”
"You know, you are the idol of many people in the international academic community, especially in the academic field."
"But because you rarely go abroad for exchanges and rarely participate in large-scale academic exchange conferences, it is even more... Many scholars are curious about you.”
“That’s why I took this interview opportunity to conduct interviews from various fields.”
“Please believe me, I have no malicious intentions.”
Martin He said it very seriously, and there was a look of sincere apology on his face.
Seeing the sincerity shown by Martin and the deep malice revealed in his heart, Wang Donglai smiled softly.
"Mr. Martin, of course there is no problem with academic exchanges. I am also happy to communicate with other scholars."
Martin suddenly showed a hint of surprise and said hurriedly: "Academician Wang , are you telling the truth? There will be a small academic exchange meeting between international mathematicians next month, where some mathematical problems will be discussed. I wonder if Academician Wang has time to attend? "
The fox’s tail is exposed!
Wang Donglai sneered in his heart and asked: "Oh, when will that be next month?"
Martin seemed to have come to his senses and said hurriedly: "It was originally scheduled for the middle of next month, but I believe that if it is reported that Academician Wang is going to attend, the participants will be very happy, even if it is the originally scheduled time. It can be rescheduled according to Academician Wang’s time!”
Wang Donglai nodded and said: "In this case, I think it is a good choice to hold the venue in China. What does Mr. Martin think?"
Martin was stunned. , I didn’t expect Wang Donglai to directly move the venue to China.
“Academician Wang, I’m afraid I need to discuss this matter with the participating scholars before making a decision. After all, the time can be postponed, but if the location is changed, it will be a more complicated matter for scholars from all over the world. It's over."
Wang Donglai was not surprised by this reply. He nodded and said, "Then I will wait for the good news from Mr. Martin."
In the following time, Martin rarely asked questions outside the academic field.
During the visit, there were no other small actions.
After seeing off Martin and the others, Xu Songyao let out a long sigh and said to Wang Donglai: "Today's things are a bit abnormal and not quite right."
"I guess this Martin's I am afraid that his identity is not only the editor-in-chief of Nature Magazine, but also another identity. Otherwise, he would not ask these questions!"
Wang Donglai curled his lips and said, "Uncle Xu, I know!"< br>
Xu Songyao was a little surprised and asked: "If you knew, how could you still..." (End of Chapter)
