Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Shanghai, inside the Second Ring Road, an antique study.

At the desk of Red Log, an old man sat there, reading the letter in his hand.

Although he didn't quite understand what was in the letter, his assistant had helped him highlight the important points. Leaving aside those sections that are too professional, he can still understand if he only focuses on them.

Just then, footsteps came from outside the corridor, and the office door slammed softly.

The old man put down the letter in his hand and said, "Come in."

The door opened, and an old man in a formal suit walked in and said respectfully.

"Elder, are you looking for me?"

"I'm not sure about something, and want to consult you," said the old man sitting at the desk looking at Wu Lao who entered the door, and slowly said, "About the young man, do you think it's a first prize? How about second prize? "

Although the old man did not say the name of the person or the first prize, Wu Lao immediately guessed who the old man was.

Hesitating for a moment, Wu Lao said.

"I think neither the first prize nor the second prize is appropriate. It is more suitable than the National Natural Science Award or the National Science and Technology Progress Award."

Although the National Science Progress Award is also one of the top five national awards, it is slightly lower than the National Natural Science Award.

An inappropriate analogy is probably similar to the difference between the three good students in the city and the three good students in the district.

Without answering this question, the old man pondered for a moment and said as if to himself.

"In the 1980s, Mr. Chen won the National Natural Science First Prize for his research on Goldbach's conjecture. According to this principle, he deserves this honor."

As if guessing that the old man would say so, Wu Lao smiled bitterly in his heart and persuaded.

"The situation in the 1980s is not the same as it is now. At that time, the domestic academic community was a long way behind the world. At that time, the Goldbach conjecture was not just a Goldbach conjecture, it was a banner. But it is different now, brother The Debach conjecture is just a Goldbach conjecture, it is just a mathematical proposition. "

The old man smiled and said, "What about lithium-sulfur batteries? This is finally a realistic result."

According to the plan made in the original White Paper on the New Energy Development Strategy of the 135 Five-Year Plan, the battery capacity should be increased to 300-350wh / kg in 2020, and the cost target of 1 yuan / wh should be reached at the same time.

Now, with the continuous breakthrough of lithium battery related technologies, the battery capacity on the market has more than doubled the expected data, and this goal has undoubtedly been exceeded.

As the solver of the "lithium dendrite problem" and the technical problems of lithium-sulfur battery cathode materials, the research results of that young man in China's entire new energy development strategy can undoubtedly be credited with a fortune.

What does the old man think and like about this young man who is capable and dares to be the first.

I probably guessed the attitude of the elders. As the leader of the Ministry of Science and Technology, Wu Lao couldn't help but make trouble.

In fact, he also believes that Lu Zhou deserves this honor.

But after all, the awards issued by state agencies are different from those issued by academic institutions. What needs to be considered is not only academic issues, but also the actual situation, especially the reactions of others.

After a moment of silence, Mr. Wu changed his euphemism and persuaded.

"You give him this honor now. What if he waits for greater success? Is it the highest science and technology award?"

The old man smiled indifferently. "If he really has this ability, why not?"

Mr. Wu sighed softly: "The average age of the National Science and Technology Award winners is more than 80 years old. If it is awarded to a young man, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public ..."

Hesitating, he continued.

"Also, Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will destroy it. For him, this may not be a good thing."

Not necessarily a good thing.

The old man didn't speak this time, as if he thought something, nodded thoughtfully.

After about a minute of silence, the old man said.

"Go ahead and do your thing. I'll think about it."

Director Wu was relieved and nodded. "Yes."

After all, he turned and walked towards the door.

However, just as he walked to the door, the old man's voice came from behind him.

"Wait."

Stopping at the door, Director Wu looked back and said respectfully, "Is there anything else?"

The old man picked up a letter from his desk and gently pushed it out with his index finger.

"I have a letter here, you can take it back and ponder."

Director Wu immediately took the letter paper and opened it and looked up.

Then he gave a slight stun.

I saw on that letter a line of headers.

"On the Application of Computational Science in Frontier Research and the Trend of Future Disciplinary Development"

...

At this moment, Lu Zhou, who was far away in Germany, did not know where the letter he sent to Jinling University was sent up one by one, and who was finally handed it to.

Compared to politics, pure science is more interesting to him.

After returning from the embassy, ​​he and Professor Klitzing went to the eastern German city of Greifswald.

This small town with a population of less than 70,000, which almost exists for the University of Greifswald, is quietly located on the corner of the Baltic coast. To make an inappropriate analogy, here is just like the German version of Princeton. It is far from the hustle and bustle of the city, and is very suitable for reading and retirement.

However, the destination of Professor Lu Zhou and Professor Klitzing was not the University of Greifswald, but the Spiral 7-x Institute located on the outskirts of the town.

Entering the institute, Professor Keli Qing took Xiang Luzhou to a laboratory, found the person in charge here, and introduced him.

"This is Professor Ralph Kreiber, whom I have told you. He has been working here for ten years and is probably one of the oldest researchers and engineers here."

"Yes, but I watched this little guy grow up, including its father," Professor Kreiber, who had his helmet off and clamped it under his arm, grinned and stretched out to Lu Zhou Right handed, "Welcome! Professor from Princeton University, glad you are interested in this great project."

Speaking of stellar objects, there is still a lot of relationship with Princeton University. Although Germany is currently leading the technology, the concept was first proposed by physicist Professor Lyman Spitzer at Princeton University.

It was just that this idea was considered too advanced at the time, and it was impossible to achieve it in any way from the perspective of materials science or engineering.

It wasn't until more than ten years later ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ that the prototype of the first stellarator was really born. However, until fifty years later, the star simulator is just a prototype, and there are still fifty years to go before the idealized blueprint is fully realized.

Holding his hand and shaking it, Lu Zhou smiled awkwardly, saying modestly.

"I'm just a professor of mathematics. I don't have any research on nuclear fusion. I'm mainly here to satisfy my personal curiosity. I'm afraid it won't help you."

"Haha, what's the matter? In my opinion, Princeton's professor of mathematics is more remarkable than a professor of physics," Professor Klebha smiled, and said without a doubt in front of a Nobel Prize in Physics. Physicists are rude.

Did not give Professor Klitzing a chance to refute. After a pause of less than half a second, he put the helmet back on his head.

"You came at the right time, and today happens to have an experimental arrangement. Come with me, I will take you to see our little guy."

After all, he beckoned and led the two of them out of the door.
