Back To The Age Of The '80s

No matter how annoyed Mr. Chen is, the agenda on the rostrum is still going on.After Zhao Depei introduced the reward money of Huaqing Award, the atmosphere in the venue was pushed to a climax.

The old scholars who came to the meeting because of Huaqing's face, arranged their clothes one by one, sat up straight, and their eyes were full of interest and anticipation. I heard that the first Huaqing Award will be announced at today's ceremony. The winners, the four prizes worth 800 million RMB, everyone's eyes are shining, maybe the prize money will fall on their heads.

Zhao Depei couldn't help showing a smile when he saw the reaction of the people below. It turned out that in the project proposal he had drawn up, the amount of the Huaqing Award was not so much. It was only at Li Zheng's insistence that the amount was raised to 200 million RMB.

According to Li Zheng, the Huaqing Award is an award for freshmen. Although Huaqing is one of the top schools in the country, its influence is still much weaker than that of the country.The National Science Awards are official, state-backed first awards in scientific research.The selection range of the Huaqing Award coincides with it, which will inevitably make people compare the two.

However, the current Huaqing Prize is not comparable to the national scientists in other aspects except for the bonus.Obviously, Li Zheng's idea is correct.

"Now, Mr. Li Zheng, the head of the Ninth Biological Research Laboratory of Huaqing University and the funder of our Huaqing Award, is announcing the winners of the first Huaqing Award for us."

Zhao Depei smiled and handed the microphone to Li Zheng.

"Li Zheng, who is Li Zheng?"

"You guys who are engaged in literature really don't care about current affairs at all. It appeared on the news broadcast last year that the Li Zheng Square in Doman, Africa, is him."

"The funder of the Huaqing Prize, how old is he!"

"Age is not a measure of a genius."

The two men who had met Li Zheng at the entrance of the venue looked at each other and couldn't help swallowing, "Old Wang, do you know Li Zheng?"

"Now I know..." Old Wang stared blankly at the generous young man on the stage, his face turned red, and he sighed in his heart. It turns out that besides reincarnation, there is another kind of person who can rely on himself at such a young age. Earn the respect of all.

Li Zheng took the microphone, and everyone in the venue focused their attention on this strange young man.

The corners of Li Zheng's lips twitched slightly, "The purpose of the establishment of the Huaqing Award is to help Huaguo's scientific research. Now is an era of competition. Reform and opening up means that Huaguo will go on the international track and race with all countries in the world. The competition between countries is ultimately the competition of comprehensive national strength.”

"For the same iron mine, the daily output of the United States is ten times that of ours. Why? Because their equipment and technology are more advanced than ours. This is the liberation of productivity brought about by science! Science is the primary productive force! I hope The establishment of the Huaqing Award can live up to the original intention and help Huaguo scientific research! Contribute its part to the liberation of productivity in Huaguo."

Facing the cameras of CCTV and the eyes of countless people in the auditorium, Li Zheng has no stage fright at all. He tried his best to convey the experience summed up by Huaguo in the next 30 years to the ignorant Chinese people. Very clear and powerful.

Sitting on the rostrum, the deputy prime minister of the Central Committee put his hand on the rim of the white ceramic cup and did not let go of it for a long time.He originally wanted to take a sip of water, but before he could pick up the teacup, the hand holding the teacup froze when he heard Li Zheng's words.

Is this really just a young man?Is this really just a scholar?His understanding of the nature of international competition is like that of a truly senior politician. Looking at this young face, he even saw the shadow of his old leader in him.

The vice premier took a deep look at Li Zheng, and took a sip of the water in his glass.

When the news broadcast was broadcast, not a single word of Li Zheng was cut out of this part of the scene. The scene where he appeared in the news was even similar to that of the vice premier. This is almost impossible in the political culture of Huaguo.

But it just happened.I heard that this is what that person meant. At the establishment ceremony of the Huaqing Prize, he decided not to cut a single word of the investor's words. A competition belonging to the country requires the participation of all Chinese people. They must understand, must understand!That's what that guy said.

"Now, I announce the winners of the first Huaqing Award."

"The winner of the Huaqing Prize in Physics and Chemistry, Professor Zhu Chengzhi. The new materials obtained by Professor Zhu Chengzhi by chemical means have enabled my country to successfully break the monopoly of synthetic steel materials in developed countries, saving a lot of capital for my country's industrial development, and synthetic The export of materials has gained a lot of foreign exchange. Congratulations to Professor Zhu Chengzhi."

"Old Zhu, congratulations, it's 200 million!" Someone said with a smile to the old man who thought he had gray hair on his temples.

"The winner of the Huaqing Award in biomedicine, Professor Meng Jiayin. Professor Meng is an authoritative figure in the field of biomedicine in my country. He has dedicated his life to the field of biological research in Huaguo, and together with the older generation of biologists, he has established Huaguo's biological science and technology. The academic system has laid a good foundation for the growth of biomedical scholars later. Professor Meng is well-deserved for the Huaqing Award."

The subcommittee debated the winner of the biomedical award.As we all know, the winner of the Nobel Prize cannot be a deceased person. Many international and domestic awards have continued this rule by default. At the beginning of the selection, everyone did not take Mr. Meng into consideration.

However, compared with physics and chemistry supported by the state, the presence of biomedicine in the domestic scientific research community is too weak, and almost no results can be produced.Even if Li Zheng knew in his heart the true value of Ms. Tu's artemisinin in the 70s, he was not a judge and had no right to interfere in the selection process. The scientific research community in the 80s did not realize the value of this research at all.

So someone proposed Meng Jiayin.After all, this award is called the Huaqing Award. Which award in the world can be said to be absolutely fair, so everyone discussed that the research results of the scholar within 12 months of his death can be included in the award selection scope.

As Li Zheng said, Meng Jiayin deserves the Huaqing Award.

Different from the hustle and bustle when announcing the physics award, when Li Zheng said the words Meng Jiayin, there was a moment of silence in the venue, and the scholars in the front row couldn't help but look sad. The founder, everyone always maintains a respect.

"Winner of the Huaqing Prize for Literature, Yuan Zhengying."

As soon as Yuan Zhengying uttered the three words, the writers and literati in the venue erupted in an uproar.

"Yuan Zhengying? Who is Yuan Zhengying? What works does he have?"

"I don't know, Lao Yang, have you heard of it?"

"Yuan Zhengying? It can't be that Yuan Zhengying, right? A news writer."

"News? How can a writer of news get a writer? Isn't this a joke!"

"Exactly! There is not a little difference between journalism and literature and art, how did those judges choose!"

There was an uproar in the venue. Fortunately, when the deputy prime minister started announcing the awards, he had to leave the venue because of something, otherwise the scene would have been ugly.

The person in charge of the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the rostrum has nothing to do with him. Anyway, he doesn't know anything about news or literature and art. He just wants to be a smiling clay sculpture. He only thinks about one thing now.

What about the physics award?Chemistry and biology have been awarded, why put the physics award at the end?Why do writers rank ahead of physics? When this meeting is over, he must give a good response to the organizing committee.

The face of the person in charge of the education department is not very good. From their point of view, the Huaqing Award is an award established by Huaqing University, which is similar to the award directly established by their education department. On such a solemn occasion , What are these people doing!If there is anything that cannot be established, let's talk about it after the ceremony is over.

Contrary to the person in charge of the education department, the relationship between the leader of the propaganda department and the journalists present is more complicated.Yuan Zhengying, of course they know this name, the first pen in Huaguo.

He has been fighting with his pen all his life, exposing many social injustices with his pen, and when the situation of reform and opening up was not clear, Yuan Zhengying continued to use his personal influence to appeal, which was rare among journalists at that time. Those who dare to express themselves correctly.He has always firmly believed that enlightening people's wisdom is the eternal mission of journalists.

No one can dispute that journalism is a liberal arts category in universities.But in social reality, the world of literature and the world of journalism are like two parallel lines that don't intersect, and no one plays with the other.

The Hua Kingdom has been advocating literature since ancient times, and Li Bai and Du Fu, whom Chinese people admire, are representatives of literati.The number of various literary awards is almost the same as that of all awards in the scientific research field combined.

But no writer has ever been awarded to a journalist.All writers seem to have tacitly excluded journalists from the system.Journalists want to win prizes?Alright, you can organize a journalism award yourself, everyone thinks so.

And today, the first Huaqing Award for Literature was actually awarded to Yuan Zhengying?A journalist?This caused an uproar among all literati.

"This is not fair!"

"What kind of literary award is this?"

This kind of voice came and went from the audience.

Li Zheng had no intention of arguing with them, but continued: "Now, the winners are invited to come to the stage, and Mr. Zhao Depei, the president of Huaqing University, and Mr. Liang Chaohua, the Minister of National Education, will present the awards to you."

This is the award?

The person in charge of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the scholars in the front row of scientific research are not calm anymore.

"Wait, wait a minute!"

"What about the physics prize? The physics prize hasn't been awarded yet!"
