Chapter 134 The modern version of Liu Changchun, a one-man Chinese team!
A few days later, no one at Berkeley was discussing the falsification of Huang Yuxi’s paper anymore, as if the limelight had passed.
But anyone with a little bit of common sense knows that it has just begun, and it is not even a storm. The real storm is still to come!
The first place to investigate Huang Yuxi's paper must be "Science". After all, Huang Yuxi published the paper in "Science". If it is suspected of fraud, "Science" will definitely not be able to escape the involvement.
So the editorial department of "Science" will definitely entrust a professional organization to compare the eleven photos. As long as there is a problem with one photo, it is certain that Huang Yuxi's paper will be retracted.
In addition to retracting the article, "Science" will definitely issue an apology statement and an article severely criticizing Huang Yuxi's paper for fraud. "Science" published an article criticizing Huang Yuxi. It will be difficult for Huang Yuxi to survive in the academic circle in his life.
And since the paper is fake, Huang Yuxi’s scientific research results will definitely be doubted. Although "Science" does not have the right to investigate Hwang Woo-suk's scientific research results, Seoul National University and South Korean government departments have this power.
Seoul National University is also one of the top 100 higher education institutions in the world. At that time, its ranking was much higher than that of Cheongsam University. Naturally, academic fraud would not be allowed to exist.
Once the falsification of Hwang Woo-suk's papers comes to light, Seoul National University will definitely check whether Hwang Woo-suk's scientific research results have also been falsified.
As for the South Korean government departments, given their urinary behavior, there is a high probability that they will want to keep Hwang Woo-suk, but if the matter becomes too big, the South Korean government can only severely punish Hwang Woo-suk and give the world an explanation.
If the South Korean government tolerates adultery, South Korea's academic credibility will be ruined, and it will be difficult for South Korea to conduct scientific research cooperation with other countries in the future. After all, no scientist is willing to deal with liars.
Any country that has the ability to light up a few science and technology trees has zero tolerance for academic fraud.
Under normal circumstances, an investigation of academic fraud of this level would not end in three to five years. Zhang Wei estimated that by the time he graduates from university, the investigation of Huang Yuxi may not be concluded.
……
Early in the morning, Zhang Wei turned on his computer, logged on to QQ, and a message popped up.
Zhang Wei looked at the QQ name and found it was from SKY Li Xiaofeng!
After opening the message and taking a look, Zhang Wei suddenly frowned.
He immediately calculated the time. It was seven o'clock in the morning in California and eleven o'clock in the evening in China. The e-sports players should still be awake at this time, so he dialed Li Xiaofeng's number.
"Hey, Brother Gai, this is Zhang Wei. Are you still awake? Are you practicing? I received the email you sent." Zhang Wei said.
"I called your cell phone, but it turned off, so I left a message on your QQ." Li Xiaofeng said.
"I was sent to the United States as an exchange student. After I came to the United States, I applied for a new phone card. The international roaming charges of Global Telecom are too expensive, and using an American number makes it easier to contact classmates here." Zhang Wei said explained.
"You are already in the United States? This is great! It seems that you will not miss the WCG World Finals." Li Xiaofeng's tone was full of envy.
"I am not only in the United States, but also in San Francisco. I can see the Golden Gate Bridge when I go out." Zhang Wei then asked: "Tell me about the situation there. What is going on?"
“What else can happen? It’s just like in my QQ message, all visas have been wiped out!” Li Xiaofeng replied.
“When you say the whole army was wiped out, do you mean you and Su Hao, or does it also include others?”
"Including everyone else, everyone!" Li Xiaofeng sighed helplessly, and continued: "Not only those of us who play World of Warcraft, but StarCraft, CS, Need for Speed, and all the qualifying players in China have not passed the visa!"
“In other words, none of you can come to San Francisco to participate in the WCG World Finals?”
“Yes, the only players who have qualified for the entire Chinese team are You’re the only one here!”
“You mean, I’m going to represent the entire Chinese team?”
“That’s right, I didn’t even give the team leader a visa. Working alone! But if necessary, the organizing committee can find local Chinese or international students in San Francisco to help.”
"There is no need to ask for help, I am an international student myself!" Zhang Wei sighed and said to himself: "I am the only one, am I Liu Changchun?"
"I know Sha Junchun, Who is Liu Changchun?" Li Xiaofeng asked.
"The first Chinese to participate in the Olympic Games! In 1932, also in the United States and in California, he represented China and stood on the Olympic field for the first time. At that time, he was also alone! ”
……
On July 30, 1932, Liu Changchun, who took the ship for 22 days with the help of overseas Chinese to finance travel expenses, stood in the Los Angeles Memorial Stadium and participated in the 10th Olympic Games. Opening Ceremony.
At that Olympics, he was the only Chinese athlete participating. He represented 50 million Chinese compatriots and stood on the stage of the Olympics for the first time.
At that time, it was less than a year after the September 18th Incident, and Liu Changchun, a Northeastern native, had just lost his hometown. When he appeared at the Olympic Games with "CHINA" on his chest, he felt certain It's incredibly complex.
He definitely wanted to win, and wanted to bring a gold medal and a glimmer of hope of victory to China, which was weak and bullied at the time!
But unfortunately, that was not the era of Chinese sports!
For the world, the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics was a sports event in which more than 30 countries participated.
For the United States, the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics symbolized the United States' determination to get out of the haze of the Great Depression and revive the country's economy.
For China, the 1932 Los Angeles Olympics was a one-person Olympics!
The road to the Olympics is full of difficulties. Strong enemies are everywhere on the competition field, and you are lagging behind in the competition!
He is alone, but he is like a microcosm of the entire nation. He forges ahead bravely in hardships and never gives up when being invaded. No matter how many setbacks he encounters, he will always have a heart. An unyielding heart, rush to the finish line!
……
On October 6, 2004, Zhang Wei came to the WCG World Finals competition venue. He also had to participate in an opening ceremony, which was the opening ceremony of the WCG World Finals.
Like Liu Changchun, Zhang Wei is also the only Chinese player participating!
The big American girl in front of me, the big "CHINA" on the sign in her hand, looks like it has just been printed. Other than that, Zhang Wei only reached one flagpole.
The organizers did not even prepare national flags for the players participating in the opening ceremony!
Fortunately, Zhang Wei was prepared. He prepared a state-owned enterprise and put it on the flagpole.
Looking around, the contestants from other countries are all in groups, holding their own national flags in their hands, including some small European countries.
Even several Vietnamese players came. Only the Chinese team has Zhang Wei alone.
Finally, music sounded in the venue in front, marking the official start of the opening ceremony. The American girl holding the sign looked at Zhang Wei curiously, as if to confirm, was Zhang Wei really alone?
The opening ceremony has already begun. If there are other players, they should be there too!
A few minutes later, when it was time for the entrance ceremony, the crowd in front began to move, and Zhang Wei followed the American girl slowly towards the arena.
The moment Zhang Wei walked out of the contestants' tunnel with the national flag in hand and his head held high, he instantly felt that all the audience's eyes were on him.
There was sparse applause from all around, and it ended quickly, very perfunctory.
On the contrary, the American flag waving in the audience was particularly eye-catching.
Americans really like to display their national flag on various occasions. In the United States, you can often see the Stars and Stripes hanging in every household. On some important occasions, there will also be a giant Stars and Stripes flag, which is even enough to Cover a building.
In Zhang Wei's mind, scenes from the Olympic opening ceremonies that he had seen emerged. When the athletes entered the stadium, they would always wave to the audience, and then the audience would respond with applause and cheers.
So he tried to do this and waved his hand towards the audience, but it had no effect.
The audience ignored him at all!
So depressing!
“When I watched the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games before, it always had some effect. Only people in twos and threes were sent to participate. When the host introduced it, there was a lot to say. I think it was the same when they entered the venue! "Zhang Wei secretly thought.
Suddenly, a voice came into Zhang Wei's ears.
"China team, come on!"
This sentence was shouted in Chinese. Although it was mixed with the noise of live music and the noise of the audience shouting, it has a unique tone in Chinese , Zhang Wei still caught this sound.
He followed the sound and could vaguely make out a young Chinese face waving to him.
The next second, the Chinese face was surrounded by a group of foreigners and disappeared from Zhang Wei's sight.
"At least there is an audience, cheering for the Chinese team!" Zhang Wei felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart.
A one-person team, one-person audience, maybe this is what the Chinese team is all about!
"Yes, I am representing the Chinese team now!" Zhang Wei took a deep breath, but the excitement and pride in his heart surged out uncontrollably.
Before coming to the United States, when Tsinghua University organized training for exchange students, the training teacher mentioned more than once that when you are abroad, you represent not only yourself, but also the image of China.
At that time, Zhang Wei only thought it was a cliché and did not have deep feelings.
Now, when Zhang Wei is holding the national flag and standing with players from other countries, he finally feels the true weight of these words!
At this moment, Zhang Wei's eyes flashed with the desire for victory, as if he wanted to devote every ounce of his strength to the upcoming contest. He had never had such a strong desire to win!
The desire to win was like a strong wind and a huge wave, constantly rolling in his heart, gradually gathering into firm confidence, making Zhang Wei feel full of strength.
“I am the same as Liu Changchun, we are both the same person, and we all aspire to win a gold medal for our motherland!”
“But I am different from Liu Changchun, because I can really Win a gold medal for my country!”
...
Since the music for the contestants’ entrance sounded, Wang Peng in the audience has been staring at the entrance and exit of the passage.
Wang Peng is a Chinese student studying in San Francisco and an e-sports enthusiast.
The WCG World Finals came to San Francisco, and Wang Peng decided to go to the scene to experience this e-sports event.
The atmosphere at the scene is indeed very good. In addition to Americans, there are also spectators from other countries, waving their own national flags and cheering for the players of their own countries.
It was Wang Peng's first time coming to the scene of an e-sports competition. He made no preparations and did not carry a national flag. He could only sit there dryly.
In comparison, Koreans who are also Asian are much more professional. Not only did they bring several Korean flags, but they also brought inflatable cheering sticks that made a loud bang when they were beaten.
“Our player from the Republic of Korea is about to appear on the stage, let’s cheer for him together!” A Korean student next to him handed a pair of inflatable cheering sticks to Wang Peng.
He was speaking in Korean, which Wang Peng couldn’t understand. He thought it was a Korean international student who was kindly giving him a cheering stick, so the colleague who took it over said thank you in English.
Hearing Wang Peng speak English, the other party immediately asked: "Are you not Korean?"
"I am Chinese." Wang Peng replied.
The next second, the Korean student took the inflatable cheering stick away and showed a look of contempt.
"Chinese, what are you doing here? There are no Chinese participating in the WCG competition!" the Korean student muttered in English.
“There are no Chinese participating? Who did you listen to?” Wang Peng asked with a dissatisfied look on his face.
“Don’t you know yet? The Chinese team’s visa has not been approved, and none of the players can come.” The Korean student replied.
"Real or false?" Wang Peng questioned.
“Of course it’s true. We have reports in South Korea that players in the World of Warcraft project were originally studying your Chinese team. I heard that you couldn’t come, so they went directly to study the European team.”
Hearing the news, Wang Peng looked frustrated. When he came to the competition site, he couldn't see any players from his country. His disappointment could not be concealed.
However, just three seconds later, the word "CHINA" rang out from the host's mouth.
Wang Peng looked up fiercely and saw that flash of red!
It’s the national flag of China!
The Chinese team is here to compete!
At this moment, Wang Peng felt extremely excited in his heart. He stood up and shouted to the front: "China team, come on!"
The Chinese man holding the national flag The player seemed to have heard Wang Peng's call and looked back.
It was also at this moment that several tall Americans shouted excitedly while Wang Peng blocked them behind them. Wang Peng tried hard to stick his head out, but was always blocked by the tall American.
"Why are you so excited? There's only one of you here, and it's very likely that you won't even be able to pass the group stage. After today's game, you're going home!" the Korean student next to him said with disdain.
Wang Peng stood on tiptoes hard and looked at the bright red in the field again.
“Although there is only one person, that is also the Chinese team!”
