Chapter 332: Unprecedented and Unprecedented (Third update, please vote for me!)
In the office, several people were chatting.
On TV, more than half of the list of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences was also announced.
On the podium, the host glanced at the teleprompter in his hand and took a deep breath: "He has proved the Hodge conjecture, solved the NS equation, and won the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize."
"In the history of human civilization, it is difficult to find another scholar like this. He is the creator of miracles and a precious asset to the motherland."
"The next co-opted academician is: "Professor Xu Chuan from mathematical physics! ”
As the list was announced, warm applause erupted in the auditorium.
A 24-year-old academician set a new record for the youngest person to be elected as an academician in history, pushing it forward by more than ten years.
But for everyone present, this was well deserved.
No one will doubt whether it is appropriate to award this title and honor to him.
Because there is no one more suitable than him!
Xu Chuan stood up, bowed politely to express his gratitude, and then walked towards the stage with steady steps.
On the stage, the old man picked up the bright red academician certificate from the hands of the etiquette staff and handed it over: "Congratulations, Academician Xu."
Xu Chuan solemnly took the certificate with both hands, nodded vigorously and said: "Thank you."
The old man smiled and patted him on the shoulder. He did not praise or advise him on the podium as usual, but had a meaningful smile in his eyes.
As Xu Chuan came on stage, applause also broke out in the office in the NTU Administration Building.
Watching Xu Chuan take over the red certificate from the old man, Liu Gaojun sighed: "The twenty-fourth academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has broken the historical record."
On the side, Chen Zhengping said softly: "Yes, I am afraid that no one will be able to break this record for a long time in the future."
Generally speaking, if you can get the title of academician before the age of 50 or 60, you are already very strong.
It is extremely rare for someone under the age of forty to receive the title and honor of an academician, and one may not be able to do so in ten years.
As a student, he directly pushed the record of thirty-eight years forward by a full fourteen years.
It’s hard to say whether there will be others coming later, but no one is sure of it before.
Monster.
On the other side, in the Great Hall, the list of co-opted academicians continues to be announced.
As time went by, the selection of additional academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences was finally settled, and 64 additional academicians were elected, setting a new age record for the selection of academicians.
As the list of co-opted members of the Chinese Academy of Sciences was announced, the list of co-opted academicians of the Academy of Engineering began to be announced soon after.
They are still arranged in order of academic qualifications, and academicians of the same academic department are arranged in alphabetical order of their names.
The first to be announced were the ten co-opted academicians of the Academy of Engineering who are experts in mechanical and vehicle engineering.
Subsequently, there are nine people each from the Information and Electronic Engineering Department and the Chemical Engineering, Metallurgy and Materials Engineering Department.
This was followed by the co-optation of Energy and Mining Engineering.
The first co-opted academician is Academician Guo Xusheng from the Exploration and Development Research Institute of Petroleum and Natural Gas Co., Ltd.
As the co-opted academicians stepped onto the podium one by one.
The host responsible for announcing the list looked at the teleprompter in his hand again, his pupils shrank slightly, and after taking another deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart, he solemnly said:
"He has solved the problem of lithium dendrites and nuclear waste. In the most dangerous field of combating nuclear radiation, he has stood in front of everyone and faced the wind and waves alone. In the most scarce energy field in the motherland, he has pioneered A new world is out! ”
“The next member to be co-opted as an academician of the Academy of Engineering is Academician Xu Chuan, who comes from the field of energy and mining engineering!”
Following the words of the host on the podium, there was obviously some slight commotion in the auditorium.
However, everyone here has also experienced the storm. Soon, the commotion returned to calm, but the disbelief and surprise in the eyes of most people filled the entire auditorium.
Some people even couldn't help but wonder if the name was pronounced incorrectly, or if there was another academician candidate with the same name.
After all, if this were true, it would be really amazing.
In the same year, the academician titles of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering were awarded to the same person.
This kind of thing has never happened before in history.
There have been scholars elected as academicians of both houses of Congress in history, but it has never happened before that they were elected in the same year.
You must know that obtaining the title of academician is quite difficult in itself. No matter which one it is, at least two-thirds of the scholars of the corresponding Academy of Sciences or Academy of Engineering need to vote for it.
And receiving the title of academician of both academies at the same time means that Professor Xu, no, academician Xu has conquered more than two-thirds of the scholars of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering at the same time.
This is too scary.
Not to mention other people, even Xu Chuan himself, who had returned to his seat, had a look of surprise in his eyes.
Although he had thought that he would be awarded the title of academician of both academies this year, he only thought about it.
So when the host announced his name again, he fell into a state of confusion for a while.
It wasn't until he met the eyes of the old man on the stage again that he calmed down a little.
After taking a deep breath, Xu Chuan stood up and walked towards the award podium again. Behind me, applause echoed through the sky. Although I was surprised and couldn't believe it, it turned out that a miracle that had never happened before in history happened today!
Walking onto the stage, Xu Chuan stood in front of the old man again.
The old man smiled kindly and took a red academician certificate from the etiquette staff again and handed it to him: "Congratulations, Academician Xu!"
Xu Chuan took a deep breath and took the bright red certificate with both hands. For a moment, he couldn't think of what to say.
The old man smiled and spoke again: "You are the hope of the motherland and the precious wealth of civilization. I hope that these two certificates can encourage you to take further steps on the academic road. I also hope that you can lead others in the future." Let’s go see the unknown world with our motherland and civilization.”
Xu Chuan took a deep breath again, his eyes were slightly red, and he nodded vigorously.
To be honest, he doesn't know if he can take on such a heavy responsibility, but he will try his best.
The old man smiled and patted Xu Chuan on the shoulder, and then said: "You have such ability, come on!"
On the award podium, listening to the old man's words and feeling the gazes from everyone in the audience, Xu Chuan suddenly felt that the red certificate with gold letters in his hand was a little heavier.
Is this probably the weight of responsibility?
NTU, in the office of the Administration Building.
Watching the scene on TV, NTU President Liu Gaojun, who was drinking tea, suddenly choked on a mouthful of tea into his nose and lungs.
After coughing twice, he ignored the burning pain in his throat and stared at the TV hanging on the wall, his face full of shock and disbelief.
"This, this"
After confirming that there was no problem with the list of engineering academicians, Liu Gaojun couldn't help swallowing and was speechless.
He turned to look at the other three people in the office. The expressions on their faces were almost exactly the same as his, full of shock and disbelief.
It wasn't until the screen skipped and the next academician co-optator came on stage that the four people in the office came back to their senses.
The four of them looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
To be honest, those who can sit in this office today are not at a low level in the country, and at their age, they have seen and experienced countless storms and waves.
But today, they suddenly feel that their working years are still a bit short.
After coming back to his senses, Rong Zhizhuan glanced at the TV, then at the three people in the office, and sighed: "This is amazing."
"Before, we were still discussing that he would definitely get an academician title this year, but we didn't expect that he would even get the titles of both houses."
"It's not just age that broke history and set a new record; it's probably unprecedented that he won the title of academician of the two academies in the same year."
For a big country, although the number of academicians is rare, there are more than 100 members in the two houses combined every year.
There are only a handful of people who can hold the title of academician of both academies at the same time.
And getting it in the same year is unprecedented.
Hearing this, Liu Gaojun and Yu Yongwang nodded in agreement. Is Rong Zhizhuan's opinion not theirs?
Chen Zhengping, on the other hand, stared at the TV for a while and then shook his head and said: "This may not be a good thing for him."
Hearing this, the three people in the office looked over.
Chen Zhengping continued: "He is still young and has already stood at the top of the country. For a domestic scholar, his current glory can be said to have almost reached the top."
"If it were just a title of academician of the Academy of Sciences, I'm afraid no one would say anything. This time, breaking history and getting two, I'm afraid it would also be a huge pressure for him."
"From today on, I'm afraid everyone's eyes will be fixed on him, waiting for him to make a mistake."
Although he was equally happy for his student, he was more worried about whether the student could endure this.
On the side, Yu Yongwang, the dean of the Academy of Physics, smiled after hearing this, and said, "I have some different views."
"Apart from today, isn't he standing at the top of the country?"
"Whether he is the first winner of the Nobel Prize + Philippine Prize, or has solved two millennium problems, or his achievements in the fields of lithium batteries, nuclear energy, astronomy, etc., he has long stood in front of everyone. ”
"Even if it weren't for today, there would still be many people staring at him. After all, how many Nobel Prizes are there in China, and how many Philippine Prizes are there? How many people can solve the conjecture of the Millennium Problem?"
< br>
"But does this have any impact on him?"
"I can only say that we will prepare more things for him in all aspects in the future and consider some things that he may not be able to consider. We will try our best to help him with some detailed work."
Hearing this, Liu Gaojun smiled and said: "I think what Lao Yu said makes sense. Lao Chen, you are thinking too much."
"People who are not jealous are mediocre. No matter where they are in any profession, these are inevitable."
"The trees that are beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind; but for him, they have already become a forest."
"Even if he cannot produce any results in the future, with his current academic capital, he can still leave his name in history and be remembered by the world."
"For him, one person is history, one person is the peak. Why bother to consider these things?"
