Great Country Academician

Chapter 789: Establish your own international awards!

Peach Blossom Ridge.

The CRHPC headquarters building is in the backstage lounge where the launching ceremony of the Circular Super Particle Collider will be held.

Xu Chuan, dressed in formal attire, was sitting in front of a mirror, reading messages on his phone while enduring the make-up artist beside him applying makeup on his face.

Affected by the report meeting on the acceptance work of the strong electric symmetry breaking coupling constant experiment held at CERN, many physicists who had booked air tickets and were preparing to come here to attend the kick-off meeting changed their itineraries.

Judging from the statistical list, there are more than two digits of top physicists, and there are more than a palm number of Nobel Prize winners who have changed their itineraries.

However, among these people, including the founder of the Higgs particle, Professor Francois Engler, Professor von Klitzing, Professor David Pulitzer and other Nobel laureates, they all asked Xu Chuan before changing their schedule. Or the CRHPC organization has said hello and expressed its apology.

He also promised to come to CRHPC as soon as possible to participate in the follow-up research work of the kick-off meeting after the acceptance report of the coupling constant experiment of strong electric symmetry breaking is completed.

Xu Chuan can understand the decisions of these scholars.

If they had not already had a stalemate with CERN, it is estimated that many domestic scholars would go there to attend the press conference.

After all, the verification of coupling constants for strong electric symmetry breaking is really important to the theoretical physics community.

If this acceptance report is passed, the world of theoretical physics will really change.

In the world of physics where the unified theory of strong electricity is completed, the sky will become brighter and more spacious.

After briefly flipping through the information in his hand and looking at the list above, Xu Chuan shook his head subconsciously.

As a result, with this shake of his head, the young lady who was putting on his makeup didn't pay attention, and the powder puff in her hand was knocked away, leaving a little rosy mark on the side of her face.

Looking at the makeup that was put on in the wrong place, the slightly funny cheeks, the makeup girl was holding back the smile on her lips, and her cheeks were almost red.

After taking several deep breaths, she tried her best to suppress her smile and began to use makeup tools to correct the misaligned blush.

Looking at himself with rosy cheeks in the makeup mirror, Xu Chuan sighed and asked, "Say, how long will it take to finish?"

Although this is not the first time that he has been put on make-up, for a boy like him who may be more straight, having him put on make-up is really awkward in the extreme.

To be honest, when the makeup girl applied the powder brush to his face, he always felt like a wall in the hands of his father Xu Jianguo.

His father occasionally did some work such as plastering cement on the walls and scraping putty.

As if expecting Xu Chuan to ask this question, or maybe she was used to it, the makeup girl who was responsible for helping him groom his appearance had a soft smile on her face and replied in a formulaic way.

"It will be ready soon. Academician Xu, just wait patiently for a few more minutes."

"ε=(ο｀*)))Alas."

Sighing, Xu Chuan muttered: "Can't I just wear makeup? I think I'm handsome even without makeup."

Sitting aside, the familiar old man was also being manipulated by the makeup girl. He turned to look at Xu Chuan, smiled and explained helpfully:

"There is a big difference between taking photos with makeup and without makeup under the light. Without makeup, your face will be darker, and the photos taken will generally not look good."

"You are the face of our country and represent the image of our Chinese academic community. You can't just take things lightly."

The arrival of the old man is not unexpected. Even if we put aside the physics community, the Ring Super Particle Collider is a super project with more than 100 billion invested.

The completion of this kind of project is a matter worthy of national celebration even for a big country like China.

The big leaders came over to send blessings and the inspection work was normal.

What's more, this kick-off meeting was held for the whole world and had a diplomatic nature.

Skipping this topic, the old man smiled and said: "Speaking of which, is this kick-off meeting going well so far? I heard that CERN has pulled away many scholars who were originally invited?"

Xu Chuan nodded and said: "Well, a key breakthrough has been made over there in the verification of the unified theory of strong electricity. Indeed, many scholars have gone there to listen to the report meeting."

"However, the impact is not very big for us. After all, the 130Tev+ energy level collider is our greatest confidence."

The old man smiled kindly and said, "I don't know much about academic things, but if the unified theory of strong electricity is verified, you should be able to win another Nobel Prize, right?"

Xu Chuan: "Winning or not winning the Nobel Prize doesn't mean much to me now. After all, I don't need the fame and blessing of the Nobel Prize."

The old man smiled and said: "That's you, you don't care about this at all. But if you really can win the Nobel Prize, you can still get it back."

Hearing this, Xu Chuan looked over in surprise and asked curiously: "Relaxed?"

Xu Chuan probably had some idea of ​​what situation he was in.

Except for the first time he went out to receive the award in the year he returned to China and in 2022 when he went to Tsarist Russia to participate in a national conference of mathematicians, he has never been abroad.

After all, safety has always been a big issue.

Beside him, the man smiled faintly and explained: "That's not the case, but if you really want to go out for exchanges, as long as you don't go to North America, the country can fully guarantee your safety, there is no problem with these."

After a slight pause, he continued with a smile: "The country is strong, which is our greatest confidence. The Air Force Equipment Department has established an air-space fighter production line through cooperation with the Xinghai Research Institute and has already put it into production."

"If you want, wait for a while, and it's not a problem to go abroad and exchange with other scholars or institutions."

Hearing this, Xu Chuan suddenly understood.

As this man said, confidence comes from one's own strength, and the truth is only within the range of cannons.

Now they are afraid that they have the ability to suppress the entire Eurasian continent.

With an air-space fighter rapid response force, the world is really big, and everything is possible.

Xu Chuan smiled and nodded, saying, "If that's the case, find some time to collect the millions of dollars from the Clay Mathematics Institute."

"There are three million dollars for the Hodge conjecture, the NS equations, the Yang-Mills existence, and the mass gap problem."

Hearing this, the big boss sitting next to him looked over curiously and asked, "You shouldn't be short of the three million dollars, right? Short of money? Not really?"

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "I'm not short of money, but who would dislike the medals on their body? The awards of the Clay Mathematics Institute are world-renowned."

"Although they haven't issued any bonuses so far."

Hearing Xu Chuan With this description, the man couldn't help but laugh and said, "Since you want to go, then go."

"A few million dollars is not much, but the honor of the Millennium Problem is indeed worth it."

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Let's talk about it later."

After a slight pause, he continued, "And compared to receiving the award, I think I can also set up a special award to reward those who have made great contributions to academic and technological development."

Hearing this, an interested look flashed across the old man's eyes, and he quickly asked, "What do you mean? Do you need the country's help?"

Establishing an internationally renowned award is not just about having money, but also about being famous.

For example, the Nobel Prize, the three natural science awards of the Nobel Prize (Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine) are indeed the most well-known in the world and the most prestigious awards in the field of natural sciences.

But the Nobel Prize has been in operation for more than a hundred years before it has the current reputation.

In this regard, China is indeed still a long way behind.

Even the more famous "Morning Mathematics Award" established by Qiu Chengtong and the Shaw Prize established by Mr. Run Run Shaw are difficult to be compared with those top awards internationally.

As for the highest domestic honors such as the National Natural Science First Prize and the National Science and Technology Highest Award, these are not mentioned, after all, they are not for the whole world.

If Xu Chuan sets up an international award, there is no need to consider the popularity, it will definitely be world-renowned.

In the future, as long as they maintain this award, China's development in the field of basic science will definitely be more attractive to the world's top scholars.

At least, they will occupy a place in the top international awards and will no longer be a wasteland.

Xu Chuan thought for a moment and then made a brief introduction: "I plan to establish a large international award, which will be divided into the overall award and awards in different scientific fields, such as mathematics awards, physics awards, chemistry awards, materials science awards, etc."

"Among the overall awards, there is no restriction on subjects. Consider awarding them every two or four years, and select the breakthroughs that have made the greatest contribution to the development of human science and technology in the past two or four years. You can consider awarding three to four results at a time, but no more than four."

"Awards in different scientific fields will be similar to the Nobel Prize, awarded once a year, and the results or scholars who have made the greatest contribution to their respective fields in the past year will be selected."

"The former has no age limit, but There is no restriction on whether the winner is still alive, only contributions and breakthroughs are considered. "

"The latter considers setting the age under 50 for the time being, which is more oriented to and encourages young and middle-aged scholars than the total award."

"As for the amount of the prize money, it has not been determined yet, but considering that the number of awards will be relatively large, a stable source of income is needed, and it still needs to be discussed and considered."

After listening carefully, the old man smiled and said: "You can discuss and deal with the awards, but the prize money can be more. For such work that is of great benefit to the country, the country can provide subsidies."

Xu Chuan smiled and nodded, saying: "Don't worry, the prize money will not be stingy."

Taohualing, the headquarters of CRHPC.

At nearly ten o'clock in the morning, the auditorium where the launch meeting was held was crowded with people.

Scholars in the field of physics from all over the world, as well as representatives of top physics institutions in various countries, are sitting here at this moment.

In addition, there are many scholars who did not receive invitations and came to participate in the launch meeting at their own expense, and they are also looking for a place in the crowd.

With about ten minutes left before the opening ceremony of the launch meeting, physicists and representatives of physics institutions from various countries who came to participate in the meeting had basically taken their seats.

The sound of discussion was heard everywhere in this spacious double-story auditorium that can accommodate nearly 10,000 people. Scholars who came to attend the launch meeting were communicating with their friends.

"Guess who I saw when I came in just now?"

"Who?"

"Professor Edward Witten!"

"WT? Are you sure you didn't see it wrong? Professor Witten didn't go to CERN to attend the acceptance report meeting for the coupling constant experiment of strong electrosymmetry breaking? He is one of the authors of the strong electrosymmetry unified theory!"

"I can be very sure that I didn't see it wrong, it was him!"

"It's unbelievable that Professor Witten gave up CERN and chose to come here."

"Maybe he wants to use the CRHPC collider to verify his string theory?"

"Impossible? Although the collision energy level of CRHPC is as high as 130Tev, it is still a long way from verifying string theory. "

"Who knows? Anyway, I have seen many top experts here."

"It feels like the physics world is really going to change. Perhaps CERN will no longer be the world's holy land of physics in the future."

"It depends on the performance of the collider. If any great results can be found in the collision experiment with an energy level exceeding 35Tev, CRHPC will undoubtedly replace CERN as the new holy land of physics!"

"Tsk tsk, all of these are brought by Professor Xu. With his own strength, he has driven the development of the entire country and even the world. This kind of person is really terrifying!"

Just as everyone was whispering and communicating in a low voice, the lights on the stage of the auditorium were fully turned on.

With the eye-catching light, everyone in the audience stopped talking consciously and looked at the stage.

The noisy discussion gradually subsided. Under the attention of everyone, Xu Chuan, dressed in a formal suit, walked to the front of the stage from the side passage and stood in the center of the stage.

At this moment, the auditorium, which was spacious enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people, was completely silent.

There was no need for anyone to maintain order in the venue, nor was there any need for other staff to remind the people present to keep quiet.

The moment Xu Chuan stepped onto the stage, the entire venue suddenly became quiet, and the sound of breathing could be heard.

Everyone looked up, their eyes fell on the young and enviable top scholar on the stage.

They were also waiting for him to speak, waiting for the news that CRHPC was officially completed.

Waiting for physics and high-energy physics to enter a new era!
