Chapter 22 Who is the Holy One
June 18, 1900.
[Quantum Mechanics] Three days have passed since the paper was published. When a physical storm broke out all over the world, Li Qiwei, who was at the center, was very calm.
Now, he is accepting the "coercion and inducement" from Professor Thomson and Wilson, asking him to publish a paper under the name of Cavendish Laboratory next time.
Li Qiwei nodded quickly in agreement.
He and Wilson were now very close, and Professor Thomson had excluded himself from accountability at the school.
Finally, Project Spark is also based at Cambridge University.
So no matter what, Li Qiwei will stay in the Cavendish Laboratory and pluck wool.
When he was walking on the road to take the exam, he suddenly found that the bulletin board of Trinity College was crowded with students.
Everyone was whispering to each other, discussing something excitedly.
Suddenly, they saw Li Qiwei, and they all made way out of the way, staring at him with burning eyes.
At this time, Chris emerged from the crowd, his face full of excitement: "Senior Bruce, you are too strong!"
"Look, this is what Dean Sanders did specially for you. The announcement you made.”
“I am so envious of you for the paper you published.”
Li Qiwei was very curious and saw the words on the announcement clearly.
"Warm congratulations to our third-year undergraduate student, Bruce Lee, for his groundbreaking paper published in Nature."
"This paper proposed the concept of [quantum] for the first time, opening up new research in physics. direction.”
“Bruce Lee studies hard and has excellent character. He often helps the students around him.”
“He is a role model for students at Trinity College. Please learn from him.”
“At the same time, the publication of the paper also reflects the significant teaching achievements and good teaching quality of Trinity College.”
"It also shows the profound academic heritage and humanistic care of the University of Cambridge."
"."
After reading the announcement, Li Qiwei smiled speechlessly.
I didn’t expect that the dignified dean of Trinity College would also play such a little trick.
Sanders had conflicts with himself, so he used the paper to praise him in the hope that he could eliminate the grudge in his heart.
If this were an ordinary young man, he would definitely be hot-headed and grateful to Sanders.
After all, this kind of public praise can infinitely satisfy people's sense of vanity.
But Li Qiwei is not a stupid young man. This kind of waste paper without substantial rewards is almost enough to deceive a child.
His request is to drive away Bellam and Miles.
So, after reading the announcement, he left directly, leaving only the admiring eyes of everyone.
"Wow, Senior Bruce's aura is so strong."
"Publishing such an earth-shattering paper, but still not making waves. Bruce is really a role model for our generation."
"The ancient Eastern country is indeed true. It’s mysterious that a genius like Bruce Lee can appear.”
While the students were envious of Li Qiwei, a higher-level meeting was also busy with him.
The president of Cambridge University is elected by the school senate and is generally held by a prominent person in society. The position of president is only symbolic.
The Vice-Chancellor is the de facto academic and administrative head of the University of Cambridge.
At this moment, there were more than a dozen people sitting randomly in the office of the Vice-President of Cambridge University.
Vice President Caldwell convened some professors from the physics department of the school to discuss how to publicize this result.
He himself was shocked by the influence of the [Quantum Mechanics] paper.
Physics is the first of the natural sciences.
If the end of biology is chemistry, then the end of chemistry is physics.
So, the emergence of a brand new physical theory has a fatal attraction for the scientific community.
I thought the matter was very simple, but it turned out that the author of the paper was actually a Qing native, and the tutor was a German professor.
This makes Cardwell very embarrassed and feels incredible.
He couldn't connect the two things anyway.
Through Thomson's explanation, Caldwell finally understood the cause of the matter.
At the same time, he highly praised Thomson for his keen eye and ability to discover talents in time.
However, Sanders on the side had no choice but to tell the cheating incident. After all, he couldn’t hide it even if he wanted to. Many students were present at the time.
Sure enough, when he finished speaking, everyone's expressions became very exciting. Even Caldwell didn't know what to say. The water behind this was very deep.
So, he organized his thoughts, and then said slowly: "No matter what, Bruce Lee is a student at Cambridge, this will not change."
"I can't imagine the importance of such a transcendental theory. I need to explain it to everyone here."
"The most important thing is that as long as this result belongs to Cambridge, then I can apply for more education and research funds from the government."
" If the new theory needs to be experimentally proven, experimental equipment must be purchased and relevant personnel must be recruited. "For such a good reason, the miser of the Ministry of Finance no longer has the conditions to refuse."
"Everyone, this is something very important to Cambridge and everyone. I hope everyone will work together to complete it."
Although they are only professors of physics, they also understand the importance of funding to the school and physics. sex.
So, everyone fully understands Cardwell’s sense of urgency.
At this time, some people suggested that Li Qiwei's identity as a Qing national may be detrimental to publicity.
Cadwell thought for a long time, and then said decisively: "Don't worry about this. Instead, we want to highlight Bruce's identity."
"Think about it, Bruce Lee was originally just an ordinary young man from a backward country."
"As a result, because he studied in Cambridge and was infected by the culture of Cambridge, he created such a great physical theory."
“Isn’t this enough to show how tolerant and broad-minded the University of Cambridge is?”
“I think that the identity of Bruce Li Qingguo highlights the strength of the University of Cambridge.”
"War is the business of politicians, but science is our business."
"We cannot let racial issues affect the purity of science!"
Cardwell's last words were high-spirited.
After hearing what he said, everyone was shocked and admired that the other person could really be the vice principal and was not a idiot.
The way and the courage to deal with things are beyond the reach of others.
Immediately, Caldwell told Sanders again: "Dean Sanders, I don't care what conditions you use, I hope that the misunderstanding with Bruce Lee must be eliminated."
"We must not let him drop out of school in anger or even join another university."
"Especially Oxford University, absolutely not, otherwise Cambridge will become a joke."
>Sanders could only nod in agreement. Of course he knew the grudges between Cambridge and Oxford.
At this time, Professor Thomson, who rarely spoke, said: "President Caldwell, Bruce Lee has agreed to be my doctoral student."
"I think, he is like this A talented person who will definitely keep his promise.”
"Of course, I also need support from the school level for his admission."
Cardwell was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly said: "That's great, Professor Thomson, it is true that a famous teacher makes a good student." . ”
Thomson didn’t care about Caldwell’s flattery. He only cared about Ridgway.
Sanders on the opposite side cast a grateful look at him.
Recalling the previous quarrel about Li Qiwei, Sanders blushed. After all, he was not a physics major and could not see what was special about Li Qiwei.
I am able to sit here today because of my status as the Dean of Trinity College.
Fortunately, he asked those two idiots to apologize in advance, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
Next, Cardwell reached an agreement with everyone to fully promote Ridgway and his [Quantum Mechanics] theory.
Strive to attract more physicists to join the University of Cambridge to continue to deepen and develop this theory.
Thus making Cambridge the number one prestigious school in the world!
When the time comes, Caldwell might be able to take advantage of this to reach a higher level.
Everyone is making their own little plans, but some are happy and some are sad.
The ones who are worried are Bellam and Miles.
At this moment, the two of them were pacing back and forth in the office like ants on a hot pot, extremely anxious.
Bellam has already inquired about Li Qiwei’s fame and reputation from elsewhere.
It is no exaggeration to say that neither of them is worthy of carrying someone's shoes, but they frame each other for good or bad reasons.
Now, we can only ask Cecil for help.
Bellam knew that as long as Ridgway argued hard, Sanders would definitely give up on him.
If I had apologized in time before, there might have been room for it, but now it is too late.
They will suffer the consequences.
Thanks to [The Lonely Old Man Next Door] for his monthly votes, and [Shiquan Dabeard] and all old book friends for their recommendation votes. Lao Xu continues to ask for reading, collecting, and two votes, thank you~
