Chapter 371 Ultimate analysis! Shocked the whole audience! Two paths for the future of Huaxia Science Society!
Li Qiwei’s speech brought unparalleled shock to all members of the Science Society.
There has never been such a person who has explained so deeply the science that Chinese people consider mysterious, complex and profound.
He is like a precise scalpel, completely dissecting the structure of the giant science and showing it to everyone.
The people present listened intoxicated, as if they had drunk the most mellow wine in the world.
Especially those who saw Li Qiwei for the first time, such as Zhu Kezhen, Zhou Ren, Hu Mingfu, etc., are now overwhelmed with admiration.
“Compared with President Li, I think the professors at Harvard University are all good.”
“God, it would be great if President Li could teach us every day, idiot. Going to study abroad is simply a waste of time."
"It's a pity that this is impossible. President Li can do more things that are beneficial to China during his time in class."
Everyone thinks. Regretful and exciting.
Because although they can't always listen to Li Qiwei's teachings, they are excited enough to have the opportunity to meet.
Soon, everyone calmed down from the shock and waited for the next content.
Because President Li just finished the first part.
At this time, Li Qiwei continued:
“The second part of the speech is the difference between West China Science Society.”
“Looking at scientific organizations around the world, we can’t actually find examples that have exactly the same functions as the Chinese Science Society.”
“Here, I compare the Royal Society of England and the Sakura Academy of Science.”
“Now, let me ask you a question.”
“What do you think the most important function of a scientific group should be?”
After hearing this, everyone thought quietly. .
Soon, Zhou Ren replied: "President, I think the most important function should be guidance and communication."
"First of all, the scientific community must be able to guide the healthy development of science and find directions for future research. "
"Secondly, the scientific community needs to contact scholars from various places and fields in the country so that they can have a platform to communicate."
Zhou Ren's words made most members nod silently.
This is indeed an important function of Huaxia Science Society.
But after hearing this, Li Qiwei said:
“Zhou Ren, the two points you mentioned are indeed very important.”
“But let me ask you, which club does not have this function?”< br>
“Even the Youth Gang in Shanghai, strictly speaking, has these two functions.”
“So, it is not a function unique to scientific societies.”
Zhou Ren was speechless after hearing this.
If you think about it carefully, this is indeed the case.
The Qinggang’s organization is even more rigorous than that of the Huaxia Science Society.
Does this mean that the Youth Gang is more powerful than the Science Club?
Obviously impossible.
At this time, Zhu Kezhen, who had been thinking silently, suddenly said:
"President, I think that since it is a scientific group, its most important function should be scientific evaluation."
"Scientific group It should be authoritative, it can identify any scientific results and give corresponding grade evaluations.”
Zhu Kezhen’s answer made everyone shine.
Yes, this is indeed the biggest feature.
Scientific groups must highlight science.
Zhou Ren glanced at Zhu Kezhen resentfully, thinking that Taoists are more irritating than others.
For a genius, the most painful thing is that you can never catch up with another genius.
With Zhou Ren's talent, in China of this era, he can barely be called a genius.
Li Qiwei smiled and said: "As expected of the Minister of Science and Technology of our Science Society, he hits the nail on the head."
"Yes, the most important function of scientific groups is academic review."
"I know you must be curious, why do I ask this question, and why do I compare Hua Xia Science Society with scientific groups in other countries? . ”
“It’s simple, because our Huaxia Science Society currently does not have an academic review function.”
Everyone started to commotion.
How can it be possible if the Science Society does not have such an important function?
Zhou Ren quickly said: "President, let's quickly add the academic review function."
Li Qiwei chuckled and said, "This is why I want to analyze it for you."
“Because this involves very complex factors.”
“The two examples of scientific groups I gave above, the Royal Society and the Sakura Kokugakusho Academy, both have academic review functions.”< br>
“All academicians selected by the Royal Society are widely recognized even around the world.”
"This means that your academic achievements have withstood the most stringent test in the world."
"But the Sakura Academy can only be limited to the Sakura Kingdom."
"This It’s the gap in national scientific status that we need to face up to.”
“But even so, Sakura Country is much better than us.”
“At least their comments are authoritative in the country. ”
"The academicians selected by the Sakura Academy are recognized by people in all scientific fields in the country."
"The most important thing is that they are also recognized by the Sakura Academy government."
"As for the Royal Society, it is even more detached. Even the government cannot interfere with their selection."
"It does not even need recognition from the British government, because all countries in the world will recognize it."
“Now, let us look at the Huaxia Science Society again, and we will find that its position is embarrassing.”
"As the first and currently largest scientific group in the country, we cannot rate the scientific achievements themselves."
"The biggest reason is because of national conditions."
"We cannot evaluate the scientific achievements from the government." Get this function in your hand."
"The Royal Society is on the same level as the British government, and its academic review function is built-in."
"Sakura Academy of Sciences is on the same level. A subordinate of the Sakura Country Government, its academic review function is given by the Sakura Country Government and can be withdrawn at any time.”
"The Academy can even be regarded as a component department of the Sakura Country government."
"The United Kingdom and Sakura Country are stable, so there is an opportunity for such a function to be born."
"And now , you should be very clear about the domestic situation.”
“So, it is impossible for the Huaxia Science Society to obtain the academic review function for the time being.”
“So, we only have it for the time being. It has the function of communicating science, but it has no qualifications to evaluate science.”
"The real qualification to be recognized by the government."
Wow!
After Li Qiwei’s analysis, everyone present finally understood the relationship between them.
I didn’t expect that a science society would involve such complex political factors.
Differences in national conditions have resulted in different underlying structures of scientific groups in different countries.
Ridgway did not comment on this difference.
In his opinion, it makes no sense.
At this moment, the positioning of Huaxia Science Society was finally clear.
Ren Hongjun’s face flushed upon hearing this.
Without Li Qiwei's help, they themselves would never have thought of the relationship.
But don’t underestimate this positioning.
Its importance even determines the life and death of the Huaxia Science Society.
If one day they want to intervene in academic review, they will probably be hit.
Because this is a grab for power, the official will never allow it.
At this time, Zhao Yuanren suddenly asked:
"President, after your analysis just now, I think our Chinese Science Society and the Royal Society are basically two different organizations."
"They shouldn't be confused, so what's the difference?"
Li Qiwei smiled and said: "Yuan Ren, the question is very good."
"This is what I want to say next."
"The Huaxia Science Society is only a temporary phased form. , in the future, it will inevitably develop into an authoritative organization with academic review functions.”
boom!
Everyone was shocked.
Unexpectedly, the Chinese Science Society, which they were so proud of, was only in its primary stage.
President Li has already begun to consider the advanced stage.
"We are all on the first floor, only President Li is on the second floor." Zhao Yuanren asked excitedly: "President, can you explain it to us in detail?"
Li Qiwei smiled and said: "The Royal Society and the Sakura Academy of Chinese Academy of Sciences are actually the future of the Chinese Science Society."
"These two models are also the forms of scientific organization in today's world system. Two ultimate models."
"Which path the Huaxia Science Society will take in the future is actually not something we here can decide."
"What we can do is adapt to the national conditions. Do your job well in science.”
At this point, the discussion has actually been very profound.
Everyone here is an elite, so they naturally understand the meaning of President Li’s words.
This is no longer within the scope of discussion in the scientific field.
If Li Leting were here, he would definitely be able to talk for hours.
But the people here are not interested in it.
Because no matter which model it is, the development direction of science itself is the same.
It’s hard to say which one is better or worse.
Seeing everyone frowning and worrying about the future, Li Qiwei smiled and encouraged:
"Okay, you don't have to worry, just do your current work first."
“No matter what form the domestic academic review scientific organization takes in the future, one thing will not change.”
"That means it must be composed of people."
"Since it is people, is there anyone more suitable than all of you here?"
"Even if the government in the future imitates the European countries If the Academy of Sciences is established, you will still be the ones in the Academy."
"You just change places and continue to work for China's scientific cause."
"So, even if the current function of the Huaxia Science Society is. If it’s not perfect, don’t feel discouraged and have no motivation.”
"The development of anything has a process."
"Not to mention such a difficult task as changing the national scientific level."
"Each stage has its specific tasks, and it is better to encourage people to achieve high goals. It won’t work.”
Li Qiwei was right. Most of the members of the Academia Sinica, which was established more than ten years later, were members of the Huaxia Science Society.
Among the 4 directors-general and 15 directors, 3 and 13 are members of the Science Society respectively.
This is also normal. Scientific researchers are not cabbages, they can get whatever they want.
Liu Bang could rule the world with just one county's talents.
But it is absolutely impossible for him to find all kinds of technical personnel in one county.
To put it bluntly, the management talents are great, but they are just a foil for the platform. They are just as great as another person.
As for technical talents who are awesome, that is because they themselves are awesome, and another person might be a loser.
Therefore, Li Qiwei now controls the Huaxia Science Society, which means that he will control the domestic scientific community in the future.
By then, he will be the true pinnacle scholar!
Everyone is of his faction.
Li Qiwei can better concentrate his efforts on big things.
At this moment, Ren Hongjun and others seemed to have a sense of transparency as they parted the clouds and mist to see the light.
The development direction of Huaxia Science Society in the next few decades has been thoroughly analyzed by President Li.
Ren Hongjun sighed in his heart:
"The luckiest thing in my life is that I mustered up the courage to find President Li."
"Otherwise, the Science Society is in my hands , I'm afraid it will lose its due light."
Zhao Yuanren, Yang Xingfo, Zhu Kezhen, Zhou Ren, Hu Mingfu and others also looked full of admiration.
As science and engineering talents, especially international students from prestigious American universities, they are immune to the so-called personal charm.
Even high-ranking officials cannot make them bend.
But at this moment, they suddenly felt that they should follow President Li without hesitation.
Li Qiwei completely conquered these young men mentally.
“Whether it is the Huaxia Science Society or the future Academy of Academic Review Sciences, there is actually only one fundamental goal.”
"I call it: scientific institutionalization."
Everyone was surprised, it was a new vocabulary concept.
“The so-called institutionalization of science is to make the social functions of science recognized by the public through organizational guarantees and endorsements.”
“What is the effect it wants to achieve? ? ”
“To give a vivid example, suppose there is a liar who claims that his pills can cure all diseases. ”
"Ordinary people do not have the ability to identify whether the liar's words are true or false."
"They can only seek help from professional scientific personnel."
"At this time, Zhu Kezhen, the Minister of Science and Technology of the Huaxia Science Society, stood up Come out."
"He clearly concluded that the pill is a lie and has no medical basis."
"At this time, if the people choose to believe Zhu Kezhen without any reason, then our Scientific institutionalization is successful.”
"This means that the Huaxia Science Society has become the most authoritative institution."
"He has assumed the function of providing scientific services to the public."
"And if the people sneer at Zhu Kezhen's views, That means we have failed too much.”
“The Academy of Sciences is the ultimate form of this authority, which is guaranteed by the state.”
Boom!
At this moment, all the members present were shocked.
They finally felt the heavy burden on themselves.
Science popularization is not about showing off your own knowledge, but about benefiting the people.
This simple yet lofty responsibility makes science no longer a cold idea and formula, but a touchable warmth.
Li Qiwei continued:
"So, in order for China to start the scientific institutionalization as soon as possible, we must take action."
"That is, from now on, we must reflect our professionalism in all aspects."
"Science popularization is only one aspect. All our members must go deep into the grassroots and effectively solve the needs of the public."
"In addition, I encourage everyone here to find like-minded friends in their own fields and establish specialized societies. ”
“For example, the Chinese Mathematical Society, the Chinese Physical Society, etc.”
"Although the organization of this kind of society is very loose, it makes up for the shortcomings of the scientific society's lack of depth in subdivided fields."
"The two complement each other and can better promote the development of domestic scientific undertakings."
Wow!
Everyone was amazed.
“President Li, this is a great idea.”
Zhu Kezhen was already considering establishing a domestic meteorological society.
Hu Mingfu and others also looked eager to try.
Although with their current qualifications and status, it is a bit difficult to take the lead in establishing the society.
But there is also President Li.
No, just use the name of the president.
The president takes action and everything is worry-free.
Looking at everyone's excitement, Li Qiwei knew that they were starting to have wild ideas.
So, he wanted to beat and beat.
"Okay, I have already analyzed the macro level of scientific development for you."
"But the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step."
< br>
"No matter how good you are in theory, it will be useless if you cannot practice it down-to-earth."
"The next part is the third part of my speech, the current work arrangements of the Huaxia Science Society."
"It is not enough to just run a few newspapers."
At this time, Ren Hongjun whispered: "President, I am worried about insufficient funds, so I dare not take big steps to develop."
Li Qiwei waved his hand domineeringly.
"Money is not a problem, you don't need to worry."
Everyone was shocked and happy in their hearts.
Trench! Too cool!
"You continue."
