Great Country Academician

"In terms of personnel and equipment, I will trouble Mr. Peng and Professor Han."

"If you have any questions, you can contact me by phone or email. In more urgent cases, you can also directly contact my driver Zheng Hai. He can contact me directly."

After chatting for a while and arranging some things, Xu Chuan also got up to leave.

After all, the controllable nuclear fusion project has just been established, and both parties are very busy, with a lot to do.

Peng Hongxi nodded, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm already eighty, but I can still do something."

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Mr. Peng, you are growing stronger and stronger than ever before."

Peng Hongxi laughed and said, "Go ahead, I can do odd jobs, but I can't help you much. The burden of the controllable nuclear fusion project still falls on your shoulders."

Here, Xu Chuan is busy with the controllable nuclear fusion project.

On the other side of the land, in Beijing, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, which belong to the National Academy of Sciences, are holding a meeting and doing intense work.

After two years, the co-option of academicians of the Huaguo Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering started again.

For Chinese people, an academician is the highest honorary title a scientist or scholar can get, and it is also one of the authoritative symbols of Huaguo's scientific and technological circles.

The selection of academicians requires candidates to have made outstanding academic achievements in the fields of natural science, engineering technology, agricultural science, medicine and health. It is also necessary to have a doctorate or equivalent research results at the level of a doctorate, and have made outstanding contributions in their own research field.

Of course, scientists or scholars who can be nominated for the selection list of academicians must have no problems with these basic conditions.

To borrow a sentence from Mr. Mei Yiqi:

"The so-called university does not mean that there is a building, but that there is a master."

Under today's education system, academicians can also do approximate understanding.

Chinese Academy of Sciences, Work Bureau Office, Director Wen Hongwen, who is in charge of the recent co-option of academicians, is looking through the list in hand.

Whether it is for him, for the Chinese Academy of Sciences or for the entire country, the co-election of academicians of the two academies every two years is undoubtedly one of the most important things in the country, and it also attracts the attention of countless people and gaze.

While Wen Hongwen was busy working, someone knocked on the door of the office a few times, and then an old man walked in slowly.

Wen Hongwen raised his head, and when he saw the old man in front of him, he put down the pen in his hand and stood up to greet him with a smile.

After personally pouring a cup of tea for the person in front of him, he smiled and said, "Why is Mr. Pan coming to my place today when he is free?"

Pan Deming took a sip from the teacup and said, "What else can I do for you?"

Hearing this, Wen Hongwen smiled and asked, "Is it because of Professor Xu?"

Pan Deming sighed and did not speak.

The selection of academicians held every two years is a grand event for both the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, but it is also a headache.

For a superpower with a population of more than 1.4 billion, academicians represent not only glory and authority, but also various scientific research resources and connections.

In many places in China, an academician represents a discipline, or even a school. The flow of academicians will also drive the flow of resources in the entire discipline. The significance to the university involves all aspects, and it is difficult to summarize simply.

In other words, in China, as long as you get the title of academician, it means multiple gains in power, status, reputation, and resources; it also means that you can walk sideways in the country.

Therefore, at this time, for the limited number of places, candidates who are eligible to nominate academicians and even the factions and connections behind them will compete.

It is common to turn against each other and expose each other's faults, and sometimes there are even cases of forging materials to frame each other.

On the opposite side, Wen Hongwen smiled indifferently, reached out to pick up a document from the table, handed it to Pan Deming, and said, "Mr. Pan, why don't you take a look at this first?"

Pan Deming glanced at Wen Hongwen, took the materials and began to flip through them.

[The list of candidates for the 14th academician election of the Department of Energy and Mining Engineering in 2019]

[Li Ning, Huaguo Petroleum and Natural Gas Co., Ltd. Exploration and Development Research Institute]

【Shu Biaoyin, Huaguo Huaneng Group Co., Ltd.,.】

【.】

【Xu Chuan,.】

In the candidate list, a familiar name came into Pan Deming's eyes.

He raised his head, looked at Wen Hongwen, and asked in surprise, "He's also nominated for the Engineering Academy?"

Wen Hongwen nodded with a smile, and said: "Several big names in the field of nuclear energy and batteries jointly recommended it. Mr. Pan should have heard of the "Nuclear Beta Radiation Energy Concentration and Conversion of Electric Energy" project that was accepted in June this year. This technology can It is said to liberate the productivity of nuclear power to the greatest extent."

After a pause, he continued: "So it's not just our side that suffers from headaches, but also the engineering institute."

Hearing this, Pan Deming smiled instead, and said, "Is it the first time in history that I was selected for both the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering in the same year?"

Wen Hongwen nodded, and said: "Yes, so this matter is quite troublesome, the nomination of the academician of the double academy, and his age is still so old"

Regarding the co-option of academicians this year, neither the Academy of Engineering nor the Chinese Academy of Sciences expected such a situation.

For the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the selection of Professor Xu is a certainty.

After all, the light of the two world's top awards, the Nobel Prize and the Fields Medal, is really dazzling.

From the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem to the Xu-Hodge conjecture, from the extended application of the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem to the discovery of inert neutrinos, the achievements of this big guy can be said to be enough for other scholars to pick out any one. The academicians who were elected to the Chinese Academy of Sciences were nominated.

On the other hand, for the Academy of Engineering, the achievements of this boss should not be underestimated.

The artificial SEI film solved the problem of lithium dendrites, allowing Huaguo's lithium battery industry to take off directly and take the lead in the world.

The "Nuclear Beta Radiation Energy Aggregation and Transformation of Electric Energy" project is to solve the problem of nuclear waste, which not only relieves the pressure on energy to a great extent, but also exchanges a large number of scarce technologies and equipment for the country from other countries.

For the Department of Energy and Mining Engineering under the name of the Academy of Engineering, no matter whether it is the lithium dendrite problem or the nuclear waste problem, any one is enough for nomination.

Therefore, several big names in the field of nuclear energy and batteries jointly recommended this big guy.

And now, it's them who have a headache.

After listening to Wen Hongwen's words and seeing this material, Pan Deming felt relieved.

He took a sip from his teacup, and sighed with a smile: "Before, we were still arguing whether to let him be selected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences this year. Think about it after you're thirty."

"After all, even Academician Lu, the youngest academician in China who was elected in 2003, was 38 when he was elected, but he was only 23 years old, and he will only be 24 by the end of this year. put."

"Now it seems. Tsk tsk"

Pan Deming sighed twice, and then said: "I am afraid that what should be considered is not whether he can be selected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences this year, but which academician of the two academies should give him this year."

Wen Hongwen smiled gently and said, "Why can't we give both?"

Compared with Pan Deming, as the director of the office, he knows more things, and he also knows the views and support for this young professor from above.

Hearing this, Pan Deming was stunned for a moment, hesitantly said: "Give both, the same year?"

Although it is not uncommon for scholars to serve as academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering at the same time, is it a bit too exaggerated to award the number of academicians of the two academies to one person in the same year?

You must know that there are only a few academicians, and there are many candidates waiting for each selection.

Not only are there many professors with senior qualifications, but there are also many professors who have made major research achievements or contributions. Letting him take two at this time may cause criticism from many people, after all, the tree attracts attention.

Wen Hongwen picked up the teacup and blew on the tea, took a sip of the tea to moisten his throat, and then said: "Don't forget, there is also a Morning Star medal on that person. "

That is the medal specially created for that person, not only an honor, but also has a deep meaning.

Hearing this, Pan Deming was stunned for a moment, then he understood and was completely relieved.

To be honest, before he came here today, he had quarreled with other people many times in the Mathematical Physics Department.

I just want to win a place for Xu Chuan as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Although Peking University had made enemies with him before, there was nothing that could not be dissolved.

What's more, a winner of a Nobel Prize + Philippine Prize cannot get an academician in China. Once this list is announced, what do Chinese people think?

But after coming here today, he didn't worry too much.

According to Director Wen, this year's co-option of academicians may be a good show.

PS: Ask for a monthly pass.
