"After deliberation by the review committee, the winner of this year's Nobel Prize in Physics is..."

Grande Hansen, the permanent secretary-general of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, said this and raised his head with a smile to look at the expectant reporters opposite.

The temporarily prepared press platform was not high, just an ordinary table, and there were not many press seats prepared, but he knew that at this moment, the world's attention was focused here, and it was like this every year.

"...Professor Ning Wei from China! I believe that I don’t need to elaborate on the reasons for his award, but in order to respect tradition, I still have to say a few words. Ning’s theory’s understanding of the microscopic world guides our future progress direction, and at the same time, this is currently the most promising theory that can unify macro and micro in a limited way, and is even more likely to achieve a grand unification."

"What particularly surprised us is that Professor Ning has only been involved in physics for about two or three years, which is enough to make people marvel and express deep amazement. At the same time, I believe that all other scholars who are studying hard in physics can understand that In the context of this era, the difficulty and contribution of being able to pioneer a set of theories and prove them is enough to prove that Professor Ning has become the greatest scientist in the world and the 21st century!"

“To this end, the Nobel Prize in Physics Review Committee of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences unanimously decided that this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics will be awarded to one and only one person, because everyone unanimously believes that the achievements of other scholars in the same field or the entire field of physics The achievements are not high enough to win the award in the same year as him. In order to respect Professor Ning Wei, we made this decision."

Having said this, Grande Hansen's smile became softer when he looked at the reporters opposite who looked more excited, making his pale hair look a little gentler. When he spoke again, his tone was gentler: "I believe many of you have learned that our jury was still meeting until eleven o'clock last night. Many people thought that until that time, we were still discussing whether this year's Nobel Prize in Physics should be awarded to Ning Wei. professor."

"But that's not actually the case. The only reason the jury was still meeting yesterday was because many of us had some doubts about whether Professor Ning Wei should be recognized as this year's only winner, rather than awarding the award to the other two finalists. Controversy. Now that everyone knows the result, more reviewers finally believed that Professor Ning Wei’s achievements cannot be shared with anyone, so this decision was finally made.”

"Let us congratulate Professor Ning Wei! May the flower of scholarship bloom in every corner of the world. Goodbye!"

After giving a crisp report, the secretary-general stood up, ignoring the excited emotions and shouting questions of the reporters at the scene. After waving with a smile, he left directly with relaxed and firm steps...

Look, Ning... In the end, we gave you the highest courtesy.

…

During non-daylight saving time, China's capital time is seven hours ahead of Sweden's time.

The press conference hosted by Grande Hansen was held on time at 9 a.m. Swedish time, and the news reached China at about 4:10 p.m.

Today is Monday, the first day after working over the weekend. For many people, it is also the busiest day at work, but it still does not prevent everyone from receiving various software or system push notifications as soon as possible.

As Grande Hansen thinks, this time of year the world's attention is on...

This year’s Nobel Prize winner in physics—Ning Wei? ! And the only Nobel Prize winner? !

This is indeed something that many people did not expect.

Looking back at the history of the Nobel Prize, you will find that after the 1970s, there has been almost no physicist winning the prize alone. Basically, two or three people win the award at the same time.

Sometimes they are different results, but they are considered equally important as the driving force of science; sometimes they are the results of everyone's cooperation.

This actually has something to do with the development of the times.

After the research directions are subdivided, such problems will inevitably arise. No one thought there was anything wrong with this and it had become the norm, but today this routine was broken.

Before many people could recover from the unexpected emotions, they saw the speeches of Grande Hansen, Secretary General of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, who announced the results.

If a scientist from another country were to win the award, most of the time the Chinese media would be too lazy to translate all the praiseworthy words when it was announced. There is absolutely no need for that. For the Nobel Prize, everyone's attention is often before the official announcement. After the dust settles, the public's attention actually begins to shift.

It is better to save space and focus on briefly describing the achievements of the winners to let everyone know why these people won the awards. This is what most ordinary people are slightly interested in. After all, who is interested in watching an old man praise someone who has nothing to do with him?

But this time the situation is obviously different. Who is that? That’s the most unsophisticated local Chinese scientist! Not to mention immigration and other messy things, he doesn’t even have any experience studying abroad in his resume.

My experiences abroad were all short-term academic exchanges. Two international academic conferences and one cooperation with CERN are all Ningwei's overseas experiences in the past few years since he was in college. The total time is less than two months...

This is definitely worthy of a sentence of self-cultivation...

Of course, this evaluation will most likely make Tian Yanzhen feel ashamed.

The fastest responder this time was Jiang Da.

Basically, less than ten minutes after the news was confirmed, the short video with subtitles was simultaneously launched on the school’s official website and official Weibo. The copy is also very simple: "Warmly congratulate our school alumnus Ning Wei for winning the only Nobel Prize in Physics this year!"

The editor who manages the official WeChat account also took a look at the official WeChat accounts of Ning Wei and Yanbei University.

The old man's kind words are still very important for the school's publicity. Ning Wei's undergraduate degree was at Jiangsu University, so now Jiangda has also trained universities that have won Nobel Prizes. As for the details that Ning Wei studied mathematics at Jiangsu University, but won the physics prize, it is actually not important.

As we all know, university general education cultivates students' thinking styles and abilities, and these are closely related to any future achievements.

It has been promoted to the outside world like this, so it goes without saying what the focus of Luojia Voice will be on that day. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when I got the news. In order to ensure that the evening radio station had articles, it was also difficult for the children majoring in journalism.

At this moment, everyone from the school principal to the teachers who had taught Ning Wei were ready to be interviewed. This is a major event, and the central media must report it, and interviews are also necessary.

Although Professor Hansen really praised Ning Wei too highly in his words, in the eyes of these teachers, Ning Wei was worthy of these praises. If you stand higher, you will also worry about whether this kind of praise will have any impact on Ning Wei's current and future plans, but overall, he is optimistic.

Ning Wei is actually a group favorite in the Chinese academic world. This is actually due to Ning Wei's advancement of chip technology and other achievements that have given many older generation scholars in China a lot of psychological comfort. More importantly, Ning Wei's age.

You must know that most of these older generation scholars are older, and their students are basically Ningwei’s uncles. Ningwei’s age is about the same as the outstanding disciples of these old people. They are relatives from another generation. Young people It’s a rare thing...

Jiang Da is still very confident in what Ning Wei is doing.

At first, everyone also thought that Ningwei should go abroad to do more exchanges, because many achievements are produced through exchanges. But now facts have proven that even if Ning Wei does not go out frequently for academic exchanges, he still outputs results with extremely high efficiency. So what else is there to worry about? Young people are doomed if they are reckless...

Especially for Jiang University, this is a perfect opportunity to completely overpower the university in the same city that always wants to compete with it for the first place in the province! I won’t say anything else. Our Jiangsu University is now the university that has trained China’s first Nobel Prize winner in physics who was born and raised in China. If we say that we are the best in Beihu, no one will have the nerve to object, right?

…

Of course, the one most directly affected by this news is Ning Wei...

He was a little confused after getting the news.

The reason...

This is not common sense.

Based on his experience in winning international awards, although in the eyes of the public, the winner is finalized only after the official announcement. However, in actual operation, before the official announcement, the winners will be notified by phone or email.

Of course, it won’t be too far in advance. There is usually half a day or one day in advance. The reason why the advance time is not uniform is probably due to the impact of jet lag. The March Prize works the same way.

But this time the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and the International Mathematical Union went to two extremes...

IMU informed him that he would win the next Fields Medal more than a year in advance, but the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences did not notify him of the winner at all and directly announced the results...

He didn't even care about the announcement of the Nobel Prize in Physics today, because he didn't receive a call or email, which made him sure that he had no chance of winning this year's Nobel Prize. However, a cat suddenly ran out on its own. The kitten told him the news.

What kind of operation is this?

Why is it that such a serious matter as selecting a national award feels a bit unserious when it comes to him?

Let him, the winner, know the news through the news? What do these review committee members think?

For this reason, he carefully watched the award announcement video that was sent back in March.

He even pays great attention to the details of every movement of Professor Hansen facing the camera, and uses his poor psychological knowledge to try to restore the thoughts of the secretary-general of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences when he announced the news.

But before he could get over his addiction to Conan, the calls came in one after another.

"Good boy, Ning Wei, you are very strict this time. You won the award and you didn't even say anything to me as your mentor?"

"No, Director Tian, ​​if I told you that I only found out I won the award after watching the news, would you believe it?"

"ah?!"

…

"Ning Wei, congratulations! From now on, you have another asset to show off!"

"Thank you, Lucy. But do you want to hear the truth? In fact, I would rather not win this award, and then I can attack the fairness of the Nobel Prize unscrupulously! Do you believe it?"

"Of course, I believe it, because you've always been such a bastard!"

…

"Ning Wei, when I heard the news, I suddenly remembered that during the Spring Festival, I went to your hometown, Yancheng, to discuss the NS equation with you. At that time, I thought that you would definitely excel in the future, but Now it seems that I still underestimated you too much!"

"Ahem, Senior Brother Lu, you don't have to be too discouraged. You can start working hard at any time in your life. Even if you are not interested in physics, you can start switching to chemistry from now on!"

"Well, I just sighed casually, don't take it too seriously, bye!"

…

"Mr. Xiao Ning, you are too strong! Really! When I saw the news just now, I just thought you were too powerful and domineering! The only problem is that this one Nobel Prize is not enough. You can get two more later. , I’m so mad at those guys, I heard the medals are gold..."

"Brother Yu, you have to have such an idea. What about the gold ones? If you play with them for children, they will find it painful to bite your teeth. I'm not bragging. I have experience in winning prizes. If you don't think about it, this The prize will come naturally. On the contrary, if you worry about gain and loss, you may not necessarily give it to whom."

"Well... this experience seems to be of no use to me. So what, I have to go to class. Please take your time..."

…

"Ning Wei, can you slow down a little? I don't dare to tell others outside that I was your father. The key is that even if I deign to tell others that you were my roommate, those people won't With faith…”

"Haha, Lao Luo, this requires reverse thinking skills. Just tell everyone frankly that you have been my son for four years in college, and everyone will believe it."

"Is this something a Nobel Prize winner can say? Forget it, Lao Ning, congratulations!"

…

"Ning, I'm glad someone helped me explain what real praise is! But then again, although you deserve this award, you should still thank me. You know, I and this jury The chairman of the committee has a good relationship.”

"Mr. Cook, do you think I am the kind of person who needs a Nobel Prize to prove myself?"

"...Everyone should want to be proven, but I'm looking forward to your performance, okay, that's it!"

…

"Ning Wei, I heard that you won the Nobel Prize?"

"Yes, Mom!"

"Oh, your dad is so happy. He invited Director Tian over for a meal today. Your dad said he would give him a toast to thank him for cultivating you!"

"This... let's forget it. I'll ask Director Tian later if he has time..."

…

Ineffective communication is a very troublesome thing, but anyone who can call him on his mobile phone has a reason to answer it... How difficult is life...
