Chinese entertainment for engineering students

"It's just an article in Science, does it have such a big effect?" Wang Xu was surprised.

"That's all. Do you know how many science articles were published in China last year?" Professor Yan suddenly asked Wang Xu a question with a mysterious look on his face.

"Ah, I really haven't checked it." Wang Xu has indeed never paid attention to it. "Science" is famous, and basically all future generations of students have heard of it, but when it comes to what is published in it, I'm afraid not many people Know.

"Zero, not one article. Not only in "Science", but also in "Nature" and "Cell". Not only last year, but also not since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Only this year, Chinese scholars have published a second work on "Science", which is from the social sciences, and the main contributing units are also from abroad.

If you get on it, this will be the first article for Chinese people in the field of natural science. The first article.

Do you know how much of a bargain Lao Bian and the others got! "Professor Yan's eyebrows were trembling with excitement, and he almost spoke in a roaring tone. Professor Yan's expression was a bit exaggerated, and this expression had never appeared on the always gentle Professor Yan.

"So miserable?" Wang Xu was really shocked. In his previous life, he had never really engaged in scientific research and didn't really know much about it.

"It's so miserable." Professor Yan was a little depressed. As a professor from a top university, who doesn't have a "science" heart?

"Okay, I'm sorry, I admit that I underestimated "Science"." Wang Xu quickly apologized.

"Otherwise, why do you think the entire material department is about to revolve around you? If it weren't for the confidentiality of your single crystal copper, it would still have a chance. It may not be able to be in "Science", but there is no problem in the top area, that's all There are not many in China.

So when you said you wanted a scanning electron microscope, you were immediately assigned, and a teacher was offered the position to make room for you.

If you go to "Science", I guess if you want to blow up their house, they will light it for you. "

"That's it, I understand." Wang Xu was surprised.

Wang Xu still underestimated the weight of a piece of science in this era. This is a very special era. The overall weakness of the Chinese scientific community is on the one hand, and the resistance of the entire scientific community to China is no joke. An ice-breaking journey is imminent.

And if Wang Xu’s paper can really be published in Science, it may become an ice-breaking cone in this special era. This is the core reason why schools and even higher authorities value this paper so much.

Just like ping-pong diplomacy many years ago, science diplomacy can become a form. In terms of political sensitivity, even ten Wang Xus cannot compare to these veterans who have worked hard in special times.

Wang Xu can be insensitive, but they can't. This was also the main reason why Professor Yan called Wang Xu over this time. He was afraid of possible troubles and had to inform Wang Xu in advance.

The school does not want this rising star to fall due to some inexplicable incident.

And this student is too special. He is too closely connected with the art circle. In other words, he is a member of the art circle. Such Wang Xu made his superiors both happy and nervous.

What is gratifying is that his thinking is active, not bound by tradition, and he has achieved great results one after another.

The nervous thing is that he is too young, and no one knows whether he will make some shocking remarks.

Rather than causing the situation to get out of hand, it would be better to tell him early and let him be careful.

What Teacher Yan just said may not contain the meaning conveyed above. However, Professor Yan and him had always been familiar with each other, so speaking like this would not irritate this student who was still unsure of his temper.

Wang Xu understands this very well. Although he is not very politically sensitive, he knows the future. There are some things that he had no intention of getting involved in.

And to be honest, he doesn't like those who engage in modern art very much. Few of them are truly artistic. Wang Xu doesn’t think their works are art either.

For example, the famous performance art "Rope" simply uses a two-meter-long rope to tie two people, a man and a woman, but they cannot have any contact or communication for a year.

This performance art took place in New York, a high-end and atmospheric place. It caused a sensation all over the world and was highly praised. It was regarded as a classic and a masterpiece, and was praised by many people who practice performance art in China. sky.

But in the eyes of Wang Xu, an engineering student, this is just a social science experiment, and it is the kind of experiment that was not well documented. Neither explains anything nor illustrates anything.

It is said that it aroused people's thinking, but it cannot explain what they thought or what the conclusion was, and there is no record of the viewers, so this is still a social science experiment with failed design.

If this is art, then the Academy of Social Sciences should be renamed the Art Hall.

Since Wang Xu didn't like even the most high-end performance art, Wang Xu didn't want to pay attention to them at all.

Wang Xu guessed that this was what they were worried about. In fact, for the top people in the rock circle, that was really not a problem.

Those who like Chinese rock music are actually Chinese people, so rock music is vital and cannot be banned if there is soil. And foreigners don't look down on Chinese rock at all, so there are few who can speak out internationally, except Lao Cui.

This is why in China, the rock circle is so troubled, but the country has always had a laissez-faire attitude of neither supporting nor opposing.

But those who engage in modern art are different. In fact, there is no living environment for these people in China, and all their activities are supported by external funds. Only then did the higher-ups take action to rectify the situation. As soon as the external funds were cut off, these people disappeared and everything disappeared.

Wang Xu felt that he understood what Teacher Yan meant, so he explained it to Teacher Yan straightforwardly. Tell him that he looks down on those who engage in modern art, thinking that they are just a group of speculators trying to make money.

Rock and roll is okay, and he likes it too. He knows these things well, and everyone around him has restraints.

His works are currently all about pop. He even wrote a military song a few days ago, which has already been sung in the army. Yan Weiwen said that it might be on the Spring Festival Gala, so there is no need to worry about this or that.

Teacher Yan was relieved. The school's power was still quite weak for the investigation. However, the superiors told him a lot about Wang Xu. When Wang Xu said it, he understood that in fact, what the superiors wanted was An attitude, no knocking.

Finally, Teacher Yan informed Wang Xu of something. Next Wednesday, Director Li from the district made an appointment with Wang Xu. There was something good going on.

Wang Xu understood as soon as he heard it. The matter of contracting the factory should be settled. He didn't know which factory would fall into his hands. Wang Xu couldn't help but have a little expectation.

("Science" actually included a paper by Chinese Wei Yanshou in 1929, which was about a new species of Trichoderma isolated from soybean curd, but Huaxia had not yet been established at that time, and he later went to Wanwan. After that, "Science" also included many papers by Chinese people, but they were not of Chinese nationality. "Nature" had almost the same situation.)
