I really just want to be a scholar

Qin Ke's heart skipped a beat. This Panetti Award is an international award established in memory of the famous Italian aerodynamicist Modesto Panetti. It is the most prestigious mechanics award in the international physics community. It is generally known as the "Nobel Prize in mechanics", with a prize of 10 euros.

Of course, if that was all, Qin Ke wouldn't be too surprised. After all, he had won the real Nobel Prize in Physics.

The important thing is that this Panetti Award is one of the awards mentioned in the system mission "Please continue to obtain the honor of the top of science"!

In the afternoon, I thought this task was difficult to complete, but I didn’t expect that I could suddenly make progress again!
Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun quickly took the invitation with both hands politely.

It only takes an hour to fly from Rome to Turin, and it only takes four hours to travel by train while sightseeing. The distance is not far, and it doesn't take much effort to make this trip. Qin Ke just happened to be interested in Dali's itinerary. The arrangement is actually relatively loose. It is a rare trip abroad with his wife and children. He has already reserved time to walk the children at scenic spots, so he can take a day to go to Turin.

Qin Ke and Wei Feng exchanged glances, and when Wei Feng nodded in thought, he knew that the security work could be adjusted.So Qin Ke readily agreed: "Okay, thank you, Academician Samuel, for the invitation. We will definitely attend the appointment. We will contact you after we finalize the specific itinerary."

Academician Samuel's assistant cleverly handed over his business card, saying that he was a special contact person, and added with a smile: "Academician Qin, Academician Ning, originally our Panetti Award was voted on at the end of the year, but I heard that you I will come to Italy this month, so I voted in advance to avoid having to make another trip to receive the award."

Qin Ke said embarrassedly: "In order to accommodate our schedule, the academicians of the Turin Academy of Sciences have troubled themselves."

Many scholars nearby heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but cast a look of surprise. It was enough that a major award like the Marcel Grossmann Award was changed to Qin Kening Qingjun. I’m shocked, now the Modesto Panetti Award is even more exaggerated, and even the selection time has been changed!

Sure enough, as long as the academic achievements are dazzling enough, it will change from "the winners are proud of the winners" to "the award givers are proud of the winners"!

……

The news that Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun won the Modesto Panetti Award quickly spread at the dinner and caused a sensation. Regarding the Modesto Panetti Award established in this country, everyone present Italian professors, scholars, and scientists are all very enthusiastic about it, and they are eager to win it. After all, this award is only selected once every three years on average. A maximum of two people are selected each time, and the selection is open to physicists from all over the world. The competition is huge as you can imagine.

At the same time, it is precisely because the selection of this award is relatively fair and impartial that it is authoritative and highly praised by the international physics community.

As for the decision to award this year’s Modesto Panetti Award to Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, no one present felt dissatisfied or unconvinced.

In today's physics community, when it comes to fluid mechanics, no one can compare with these two young physicists from Xia Dynasty, even if we don't mention the great impact that the NS equation, a millennium problem, has had on the development of fluid mechanics and human civilization. In the past year alone, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have made perfect use of NS equations and fluid mechanics in climate prediction. They have surpassed the successful predictions of meteorologists around the world time and time again. This is the best report card. .

I don’t know who took the lead in applauding, and soon the congratulatory applause resounded throughout the audience, becoming a bright silhouette of tonight’s dinner.

The next morning, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were invited to give a 15-minute speech each to the students of Sapienza University of Rome.

The language is naturally in English.

Although the two of them took the time to learn Italian on their own, they were limited to simple greetings and hellos and could not be used for communication.

For the two speeches, Sapienza University of Rome also equipped an English-Italian bilingual translator to translate Qin and Ke’s English into Italian. After all, it is well known that Italians reject English and their English level is at the bottom of Europe. Yes, the English proficiency of the students is also uneven, and they may not be able to understand all the speeches of the two people.

Qin Ke took the stage first, and the theme of his speech was "What can I do to prevent climate change in the future?"

He started by talking about saving water and electricity and paying attention to environmental protection, and then encouraged students to study hard and use technology to change the future.

"I saw some scholars on the Internet expressing their views that humans are a stubborn disease of this planet. The recent frequent extreme climate anomalies are the planet's punishment for humans' destruction of nature. Some scholars also believe that although we have given this planet a The planet has caused a lot of damage, and the advent of nuclear bombs has given humans the ability to destroy the planet. However, with the development of science and technology, humans have paid more and more attention to this mother planet, and are exploring a way to find a way between humans and the planet. A new path for harmonious development of nature!”

"I will not comment on whether these two views are correct, but I agree with their starting point, which is to call on us to cherish this planet and the home that we and our descendants rely on for survival!"

Qin Ke thought of the prophecy from the distant mysterious universe, and thought that humans in that dimension would have to leave this desolate and almost destroyed planet hundreds of years later, struggling to find a new home in the vast universe, and it was even possible that Even the current form and living habits of human beings have undergone tremendous changes - for example, they have only a head, their hands and feet have degenerated, and they can only rely on mechanical bodies to survive - and a strong sense of emotion and responsibility surges in their hearts.

"The universe is very big. Even if the birth of life is a miracle with a probability of one in 50 billion, there will definitely be life on other planets. Sooner or later, human beings will get out of this planet and move towards the vast universe. This is inevitable for the progress of human civilization. But please never forget that the reason why we are called 'Blue Star People' and the reason why we are 'human beings' is because of the planet under our feet and because we live on this planet! This is us A great home that you can’t let go of!”

"We have not yet found a convincing reason for the global climate changes in recent years, but preliminary inferences should not only be caused by human activities and changes within the planet, but also by influences from the outside world. Maybe with this As the impact continues to worsen, one day in the future, this planet will move toward desolation and destruction. At that time, we humans will need to stand up and use the power of technology to protect it, change its destiny, and keep it full of vitality! "

"Whether it is to better coexist and develop with this planet, or to make our future brighter, science is an indispensable and important tool..."

"The Sapienza University of Rome is a world-famous university with a long history. Science takes root and thrives here. 14 Nobel Prize winners were born here, including the astronomer Copernicus, Marconi, the father of radio, and Fernando Fernando, the father of atomic energy. Scientists such as Mi once studied or worked here. There is also Europe's top physics research center, the world's second-ranked mathematics department library, and the world's leading aerospace engineering school. I believe that in the future, There will definitely be more famous scientists born among all of you here, who will make outstanding contributions to the future of mankind and the future of this planet! Let me encourage you all!" "Thank you everyone, this is the end of my speech!"

Qin Ke’s speech not only supported the environmental protection issues that Europe attaches great importance to, looked forward to the “grand blueprint” to save the planet, but also praised the Sapienza University of Rome. Naturally, he won warm applause and strong enthusiasm from the college students who are in their passionate years. repercussions.

Ning Qingyun's next speech titled "Basic science should have no national boundaries and no distinction between genders" also received a flood of applause.

A professor from the Department of Architecture couldn't help but quietly asked Professor Rudene Campol from the Condensed Matter Physics Department of the School of Physics next to him: "Professor Campol, you major in physics, do you think this planet is likely to die?" "

Professor Campol's eyes were still on the podium: "I study condensed matter physics, not astrophysics, but theoretically speaking, all stars will go through birth, adulthood, middle age and death, let alone planets. "

"Then can humans really use technology to change the stage of planetary decline?"

Professor Campbell shrugged: "I can't answer this question, but if there is anyone who can do this, it is probably the two people standing on the stage." Seeing the architecture professor next to him, his eyes widened. , Professor Campbell said with a smile: "No need to doubt, I am not joking. They give me the feeling that they are omnipotent."

……

The process of the afternoon award ceremony was no different from that of other awards. Soon Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun each received a gold medal engraved with Marcel Grossman's face, an award certificate, and an award certificate. A check for 10 US dollars, yes, 10 US dollars shared by two people, seems a bit less?

In fact, the prize money of most major awards is similar to this amount. Even the crown of mathematics, the Fields Medal, only has a bonus of 1.5 US dollars. After all, there are very few high-dollar awards such as the Scientific Breakthrough Prize and the Nobel Prize.

After the award ceremony, there will be an hour-long academic report.

The 1000-seat auditorium was already packed. After high-fiving each other with Qin Ke, Ning Qingyun stepped onto the podium first.

The two people took turns to be responsible for different parts of this one-hour academic report. Ning Qingyun mainly explained the prediction principles of this year’s El Niño phenomenon and high-temperature drought disasters, basically focusing on the article "The Causes of El Niño Phenomenon" published in "Nature" "Changes and Deduction of Future Impacts" paper was launched, and detailed replies and answers were given to the questions and puzzles raised by the most scholars on the Internet.

This half-hour interpretation is a priceless treasure for the physicists and mathematicians who have spent a lot of energy studying this paper. Many difficulties that have troubled them for a long time have been solved. A sense of satisfaction arose spontaneously, and they excitedly exclaimed in their hearts that the trip was worthwhile while taking notes quickly.

When Ning Qingyun finally walked off the podium, thunderous applause almost lifted the ceiling of the entire auditorium.

When it came to Qin Ke's session, Qin Ke followed the "Future Impact Deduction" part of the paper "Cause Changes of El Niño Phenomenon and Deduction of Future Impacts" and made predictions about the trend of global climate variability in the next two to three years.Different from the previous overview, this time his prediction is extremely detailed, with many key time nodes and disaster indicators, specific areas that are likely to be affected, and stated the reasons and basis for making the prediction. These are all things he has done in the past two years. The latest results of research led by the team for months.

Because half an hour was too short and the content was too shocking, all the audience present and the media were listening with rapt attention. It was not until Qin Ke finished his report that everyone suddenly realized that half an hour had passed by just a few seconds. Not satisfying.

So when it came to the question-and-answer session and reporter interview session, the atmosphere suddenly became explosive. Countless people jumped up and raised their hands to ask questions, and the topics all revolved around global climate changes in the next two to three years.

Qin Ke came to Europe this time to strengthen cooperation with the European Meteorological Center, from strategic cooperation to in-depth cooperation. Naturally, he and Ning Qingyun patiently answered all questions from scholars and reporters.

"Yes, as we said at the report meeting, based on the latest research results and deduction results, we believe that there is more than a 90% probability that global climate anomalies will continue in the next three years."

"We call on all countries around the world to continue to conserve water and electricity, vigorously promote seawater desalination technology, and reserve freshwater resources as much as possible. Droughts like this year will become common. If the problem of freshwater resources is not solved for one day, mankind will face a freshwater crisis. threats."

"We also recommend that countries strengthen research on new crops that are heat-resistant, drought-resistant, cold-resistant and snow-resistant to adapt to the increasingly severe climate change situation and alleviate the food crisis."

"Should we hold lectures to promote computational seed science? Sorry, we really don't have so much time. Besides, computational seed science has published tutorials. Students and scholars in related majors can master this through careful reading and practice. A new discipline.”

"Are we still engaged in related seed research? Yes, our lime plant breeding laboratory has been conducting new seed research along these two directions. However, we do not personally lead the team. We mainly serve as a guide. We Our team has basically mastered computational seed science, and has experience in the early development of perfect desert sweet potatoes. In most cases, it has been able to complete research independently. Only when we encounter real problems that cannot be overcome, my wife and I will get involved. We The current energy is still focused on the study of abnormal climate and the detoxification of radioactive elements. The latter is mainly to solve the problem of nuclear sewage and thus truly solve the fresh water crisis."

"Regarding this question, there are indeed many scholars in Japan who have expressed their willingness to join my research team selflessly and even provide a large amount of funds as research funds, but I think tacit teamwork is more important than the number of people. At present, string theory is used to study radioactive elements. A research team on the toxicological method has been established, with four main members: me, my wife Ning Qingjun, Edward Witten Duyao, our good friend Professor Tao Zhexuan, and Mr. Qiu as a foreign aid."

"I would like to thank the European people for their attention and support to my wife and me. When we come to Europe this time, we will go to the European Meteorological Center for exchanges. We are also willing to have in-depth cooperation with the European Meteorological Center on the issue of global climate variability..."

Soon, the reputations of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun had surpassed that of most heads of state. Their speeches quickly spread from Italy to all corners of the world, causing a huge sensation!
