The top student must be diligent

"Hello, Professor Xiao!"

"Haha, now we should call him Academician Xiao. Just a few days ago, the Academy of Sciences announced our list of new members for this year, and Professor Xiao's name is on it!"

"Not only the Academy of Sciences, but also the Academy of Engineering has issued a notice. Academician Xiao is not only an academician of the Academy of Sciences, but also an academician of the Academy of Engineering."

"Good fellow, congratulations to Academician Xiao, double academician, this kind of honor is rare."

Faced with the congratulations of the people present, Xiao Yi just smiled and nodded at them, "Thank you everyone."

Then he sat in his seat under the guidance of the staff next to him.

This is a very front position.

Sitting next to him is an expert in domestic economics, named Lin Jingxi, who is already very old this year, but has always been a major expert in domestic economics.

"Academician Xiao, hello."

After seeing Xiao Yi sitting next to him, Lin Jingxi stretched out his hand to him, greeted him with a smile, and said, "I am Lin Jingxi, an economist."

Xiao Yi shook hands with him, "Hello, Professor Lin."

Lin Jingxi smiled, and then said, "Speaking of which, I envy those of you who are engaged in science and engineering, and you can be further evaluated as academicians in the end. For those of us who are engaged in social sciences, the highest we can get is the Yangtze River Scholar."

After saying this, he explained, "Of course, I am not complaining, it's just a pure feeling."

"After all, science and technology are the primary productive forces, and productivity is the key to determining the strength of a country. As for those of us who are engaged in social sciences, we are not engaged in the development of this kind of productivity at all."

"Of course, I am still very curious about how you, Academician Xiao, as the smartest human being in our history, view the relationship between science and engineering and social sciences?"

After saying this, Lin Jingxi looked at Xiao Yi expectantly.

Xiao Yi thought about this question.

This is a very interesting question.

Social sciences seem to have nothing to do with science and engineering, but for a society, the relationship between the two is very close.

As the saying goes, the development of all things is interrelated.

Then Xiao Yi began to say: "First of all, let me correct your words. Science and technology are the primary productive forces, and social sciences are also included in it. I wonder if Professor Lin excluded social sciences intentionally or accidentally?"

Lin Jingxi smiled, but he was not embarrassed by the problem being pointed out. He just apologized a little: "I'm sorry, I also want to see if Academician Xiao is sensitive enough on this point. After all, I have always wanted to know what Academician Xiao's attitude towards social sciences is."

"With Academician Xiao's wisdom, I think even if I said a long string of words just now, I can still understand what each sentence means. So, if Academician Xiao didn't hear my wrong words, If so, I can make a preliminary judgment that Academician Xiao subconsciously despises social sciences. "

"But now Academician Xiao is very keen to find such mistakes, I think I can get a good preliminary judgment."

"Of course, if Academician Xiao is dissatisfied with this, I will apologize to you."

Listening to the other party's words, Xiao Yi just said calmly: "It doesn't matter, I don't care."

Lin Jingxi was slightly startled and glanced at Xiao Yi's expression, wanting to know what he meant by "not caring". Does it mean that he doesn't care about the offensive words mixed with traps in his words, or doesn't care about anything else, but after looking for a long time, he didn't see anything, so he had to give up.

Then he asked: "Then, Academician Xiao can continue to tell me your thoughts now."

Xiao Yi replied: "My view on the relationship between the two is very simple."

"That is, science and engineering create resources, and social sciences use resources. " "As the saying goes, science and technology are the primary productive forces, and the most important part of our human society is productivity."

"And there is no doubt that science and engineering are the key to the continuous updating of productivity technology."

"But productivity technology alone is not enough. We need to apply these productivity technologies to certain areas, which is the work of social sciences."

"Just like we have mastered transistor technology, but what can transistor technology be used for?"

"So there are chips."

"And after we have chip technology, what can we use chips for? Or, what can be developed under chip technology that we people need?"

"So there are mobile phones, computers, etc."

"Of course, this is just a specific case, there are many other situations."

"But this is what I mean."

Lin Jingxi laughed and said, "We are lucky that Academician Xiao can have such an idea."

"In my opinion, there is also such a relationship between the two."

Xiao Yi nodded slightly: "That's fine."

Then he fell silent.

Lin Jingxi didn't speak for a long time. He could see that Xiao Yi seemed to have no intention of communicating with him about this matter.

But after a moment, he couldn't help asking again: "Academician Xiao, I'm actually still a little confused about what you just said, that you don't care about this sentence. I want to ask, when you say you don't care, does it just mean that you forgive what I said?"

Xiao Yi said calmly: "That's not the case."

"When I say I don't care, I mean I don't care how you will think about whether I despise or value social sciences."

Lin Jingxi was confused by this sentence.

But Xiao Yi's next sentence made him stunned.

"Because what I study is something that you basically can't consider when you make plans to allocate and use resources."

So no matter what my attitude towards social sciences is, in the end it will not affect you to think about how to modify the next plan based on what I have studied.

Xiao Yi didn't say the next sentence, after all, it seemed a bit hurtful.

But Lin Jingxi already understood what he meant by this sentence.

His face suddenly looked a little embarrassed.

What Xiao Yi said...

He didn't know how to refute.

But at this moment, another old professor who witnessed their conversation shook his head and said to Xiao Yi: "So, we all hate you."

Xiao Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the old professor next to him.

In front of him was a nameplate called Luo Bangrong.

Lin Jingxi patted Luo Bangrong and said: "Hey, Lao Luo, don't say that."

Luo Bangrong just smiled calmly, and then said to Xiao Yi: "Of course, Academician Xiao, the kind of hate I'm talking about is not the kind of purely malicious hate, but another meaning."

"For example, our meeting today, in fact, to some extent, is also a bit sudden."

"And all this is because of the nuclear fusion technology you came up with."

"It disrupted many of our previous plans, so that for a long time, we had to work overtime to modify the plan, which is not very friendly to us old people."

"And now, we have to start preparing for the formulation of the 16th Five-Year Plan in advance. We have discussed it, but even if it is completed by then, we have to be on guard against whether you will come up with some new technology and disrupt our plan. "

"So, Academician Xiao, do you think we should hate you?"

Hearing the other party's explanation, Xiao Yi laughed, and then just spread his hands and said: "Then I think you can rest assured about the 16th Five-Year Plan, because at present, only nuclear fusion technology can bring such a big impact, and now, there is no technology that can have such a big impact on human society like nuclear fusion technology. "

The focus of this meeting is a node meeting for the 15th Five-Year Plan, and it is also the first discussion for the next 16th Five-Year Plan.

And in these five-year plans, the impact of scientific and technological levels is quite large.

This is also the main reason why Xiao Yi was invited to participate in this meeting.

He is now regarded as the most representative figure in the scientific community of China. It is no exaggeration to say that his research direction can affect some strategic directions of the plan.

Just like what they said about nuclear fusion.

This was a possibility that had never been considered in the 15th Five-Year Plan, but it suddenly came out and completely disrupted many of the arrangements in the 15th Five-Year Plan.

So, when the controlled nuclear fusion technology just came out, social science experts like Lin Jingxi and Luo Bangrong stayed up all night for many days to deal with this new technology that completely raised human productivity by several levels, and finally came up with a series of new plans.

For example, the most direct electricity price, they not only have to think about the best level of electricity price reduction, but also the impact of a sharp drop in electricity prices on the overall economy, and so on.

And it is hard to guarantee that there will not be some unexpected events. After all, with such a low electricity price, even if they look through all the statistical data for the past 100 years, they can't find a statistical chart that can predict what may happen in the future.

So, it is really correct to say that they hate Xiao Yi.

After all, no one likes things that are beyond expectations.

"But, although we hate you, we also like you very much."

Suddenly, Luo Bangrong said again.

"Although some unexpected technologies have appeared and are very troublesome, this also means that we only had those cards in our hands, but suddenly, you gave us two kings."

"So how do I put it? This is a feeling of pain and happiness."

He laughed and said, "So, we still hope that you can come up with more such technologies, which means that we can play more and more cards in our hands."

"I have always supported the development of science and technology. Although I am only a person who formulates foreign economic policies and has nothing to do with science and technology, of course, the more cards I have in my job, the better."

Chapter 300 Encouragement to all

"What Lao Luo said does make sense."

Listening to Luo Bangrong's words, Lin Jingxi next to him immediately smiled and clapped his hands, expressing his full agreement.

Then he also said to Xiao Yi: "Indeed, when you first developed nuclear fusion, although we did have to work overtime, we were also very happy. We thought that we would have a killer weapon in the economic field in the future. That would really be a command for the world, and no one would dare to disobey."

He laughed again.

For them, nuclear fusion is indeed such a super killer weapon in the economic field. Energy is the economy, and nuclear fusion is the creator of the economy.
