Salute to the Chinese Scientists Who Selflessly Dedicate Themselves to Their Posts
(The gist of the previous chapter is as follows: Ou Ye was discharged from the hospital and returned home; she was recovering very well. Seeing her parents' constant affection, Shen Nuo Fei felt that she might be expecting a younger brother or sister. Meanwhile, the Nobel Prize announcement ceremony was held at the Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences.)
The Nobel Prize announcement ceremony then moved to the announcement of the Prize in Medicine and Physiology.
The Nobel Prize in Medicine and Physiology may hold a status comparable to that of the Physics Prize.
In recent years, a trend of downplaying chemistry has emerged worldwide. Among the various Nobel Prize Prizes in the Natural Science, chemistry perhaps holds the lowest status.
Is chemistry really no longer important?
No, chemistry remains important; this discipline cannot be replaced, nor will it disappear.
To bring chemistry back to its peak, contemporary chemists need to persevere and innovate boldly.
Beyond innovation, we must also create, ultimately achieving creation itself.
This may be the only way forward for contemporary and future chemistry.
The task is arduous, chemistry students, please do your best.
Compared to math and physics students who specialize in theoretical research, chemistry students are at least more likely to find jobs.
A large number of reporters gradually gathered downstairs at Shen Qi Research Center.
The annual Nobel Prize draw is about to take place, and reporters are eagerly awaiting it.
Old Wang, the security guard at the center, stood across the entrance, holding a broom more than two meters long. His eyes gleamed with a sharp light, and his muscles were bulging with power.
The reporters gasped in astonishment. Shen Qi Research Center was full of hidden talents; even the security guards there were like gods descended from heaven.
"Master Wang, have a cigarette." A reporter respectfully offered him a good cigarette.
Old Wang took the cigarette, and the reporter lit it for him.
Old Wang exhaled a smoke ring and said leisurely, "When the results from the Norchem results come out later, your interviews need to be orderly."
The reporters nodded repeatedly. "Definitely, definitely!"
Old Wang, a temporary worker at the center, appeared calm and composed, but he was actually quite nervous inside.
If Director Shen fails to obtain the necessary approvals, our center will suffer a huge loss of face!
In Sweden, the president of the Royal Academy of Sciences began reading out the news from Nova:
"This year's Nobel Chemistry Prize was awarded to Wayne Tabrin and Sarah Norman for their significant breakthroughs in the field of 'make life'..."
Shen Qi, watching the live stream, felt a chill run down his spine. Make life?
In the field of chemistry, "make life" can be understood as creating living molecules, thereby achieving a leap from biomolecules to molecular life. Its ultimate goal is to bridge the gap between chemical evolution and biological evolution.
There are very few public reports about the newly minted Nobel laureates Wayne Tablin and Sarah Norman on "make life." The only one that can be found is a brief description of a few hundred words published by them in Nature.
It is impossible to win a Nobel Prize based on just one Nature briefing.
The Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences must have conducted a comprehensive and in-depth review of the research findings of Wern-Tabrin and Sarah Norman through their special review process.
Shen Qi didn't have time to ponder it carefully, because at that moment the president of the Royal Academy of Sciences said:
"The other Nobel Chemistry Prize this year is... Shen Qi."
"Shen Qi was awarded the prize for his groundbreaking achievements in the research fields of Macrocyclic Compounds and novel rearrangement reactions..."
Secretary Liang, who was watching the live broadcast with Shen Qi, jumped up excitedly. "Director Shen, it's you! Congratulations on winning the Nobel Prize! Two Nobel Prize in Physics, one for chemical engineering, you've won three Nobel Prizes! You've made history!"
"It's definitely something to be happy about," Shen Qi nodded.
At this moment, the system displayed. "Congratulations, host, on winning the Nobel Chemistry Prize! You have become the person with the most Nobel Prize Prizes in human history, and are rewarded with 80 million academic points."
"Hidden quest activated. Hint: After reaching level 15 in all subjects including Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and X, you can attempt to reach level 16 in any one of the 10 subjects set by the system. Note: 0 < X ≤ 6."
Shen Qi appeared cheerful on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.
The system has finally provided an official clue for advancing to level 16!
4+X!
That is, all four science subjects—mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology—have been upgraded to level 15, which is 4.
The value of X is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 6.
In other words, at least one of the remaining six subjects also needs to be upgraded to level 15.
In other words, Shen Qi can only challenge the level 16 realm, which is "invincible even in non-human realms," if he reaches level 15 in at least half of the 10 subjects set by the system.
That's interesting, very interesting.
Shen Qi smiled slightly. He longed to know what it felt like to be invincible in a non-human realm.
In fact, Shen Qi had made a predictive analysis: humans are three-dimensional beings, living in a three-dimensional world.
Shouldn't the realm of non-human beings at least break through the limitations of humanity in terms of dimensions?
This breakthrough might be in terms of ideology, or it could be in other aspects.
Go for it, young warriors!
Be brave and open the door to a new world and a new dimension!
Shen Qi was filled with excitement; he seemed to have returned to the passionate days when he first tried to win the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize.
"Director Shen, the media friends downstairs are going crazy. Should you go down and calm them down now?" Old Liang stood by the window, looking down at the crowd below.
"I'm going down now." Shen Qi stood up and straightened his clothes.
Beep beep beep.
Shen Qi's phone rang.
Shen Qi glanced at the caller ID and answered the phone, "Secretary Wu, hello."
Secretary Wu, the chief secretary of a high-ranking official, said excitedly on the phone, "Congratulations, Academician Shen, on winning the Nobel Prize! First of all, on behalf of the leadership, I congratulate you and also invite you to the Military Affairs Office for a chat. Are you free tomorrow morning at nine o'clock?"
Shen Qi: "Thank you for the care and concern of the Party and the country, and also thank you for the leaders and Secretary Wu for your concern. I will arrive at the Military Affairs Office at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. See you tomorrow."
Beep beep beep!
Beep beep beep!
Shen Qi's cell phones rang one after another.
There's simply not enough to handle!
There was no other way; Shen Qi would personally answer congratulatory calls from provincial or ministerial level officials, or academicians.
Other calls were answered by Secretary Liang.
Shen Qi has already been nominated for the Nobel Prize three times.
Shen Qi's achievement of this novel coronavirus has profound significance for the Chinese scientific community.
Effective immediately, Chinese scientists have won all Nobel Prizes in the Natural Science, including the Nobel Prize in Physics Prizes in Physiology or Nobel, and the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
Although only two Chinese scientists, Shen Qi and Teacher Tu, have won Nobel Prizes in the Natural Science, it was these two who laid a solid foundation for China's Natural Science research and development, and paved the way for those who followed.
Doing scientific research is actually quite tough; the pay is low, and you often have to work overtime.
The only advantage might be job stability and the fact that the company provides subsidized housing.
Shen Qi and Teacher Tu have reached the pinnacle of scientific research. This is not only a victory for the two of them, but also the result of years of hard work by scientific workers across China who have remained dedicated to their posts and made selfless contributions.
So far, only the Nobel Peace Prize and the Economics Prize remain unclaimed by Chinese scholars.
One congratulatory telegram after another was sent to Shen Qi from China.
There were also many congratulatory telegrams from overseas.
"Key, congratulations! I'm so glad to..."
"поздравлять!"
"Félicittion!"
"Shen さん, おめでとうございます!"
"Compliment!"
"!"
Science knows no borders, and great scientific achievements deserve to be celebrated with champagne by scientists all over the world.
Shen Qi responded to the congratulatory messages from scientists from various countries one by one. He was deeply moved and had many thoughts to share.
