Chapter 463: Young man, you are still too immature!
When Zeng Xinguo received the call from Gao Yueyang, he looked confused at first.
I have delayed running for academician for many years. Last time it was because of the lack of major achievements. But how do you measure major achievements?
In the field of doctors, it is sometimes difficult to measure this outstanding achievement, and sometimes it is basically just saying that you have it.
Of course, there are exceptions to everything.
For example, there are really people who have achieved major achievements, such as Bai Ye, who won the World's Best Contribution Award. This is the priority condition.
The selection of academicians is not absolutely fair. Everyone in the world knows that, not to mention others, Tu You Tu's achievements in his lifetime are no longer measurable by major achievements.
Even before winning the Nobel Prize, Tu You had already won many world-wide awards, but she was still not selected to become an academician.
For the relevant departments, this incident is simply a very mocking and ridiculous thing.
Since that time, the country has begun to pay attention to the selection of academicians of the two academies!
However, the group of people who can participate in the selection of academicians are all well-known and promising figures in the circle. If you really act resolutely with these people, sometimes it will be counterproductive. Therefore, in order to make the selection of academicians relatively fair, the country will at least not let people
Just looking at the joke, a few priority conditions were introduced.
For example, there is a rigid standard, and there are only a limited number of outstanding achievers.
This outstanding achievement must at least be a national award or above, and currently there are only two awards in China that can ultimately measure national priorities in the medical field, one is the Chinese Medical Science and Technology Award and the other is the Wu Yang Award.
Speaking of Wu Yang Award, everyone may not know much about it. Its full name is "Wu Jieping Medical Research Award, Paul Janssen Pharmaceutical Research Award". It is one of the most authoritative unofficial science and technology awards in the Chinese medical community.
The Wu Yang Award and the China Medical Science and Technology Award complement each other and have become an important and constant standard for evaluating the highest achievements in the medical field in China.
So when Zeng Xinguo learned that he had a chance to win this award, he hurried to Gao Yueyang's office and asked with excitement and eagerness: "Lao Gao, what is going on? What kind of academician?"
Looking at the impatient expression, Gao Yueyang said in a hurry: "Old Zeng, after the decoration of my old house was completed, there was an empty wall. That empty wall is really ugly!"
Zeng Xinguo raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it just a painting? I gave you that painting. Please tell me what's going on. But I've made it known in advance. If you can't tell me in detail, I'll forgive you.
I can’t help you!”
Gao Yueyang suddenly beamed with joy: "Ahem, sit down, what kind of person am I? Look at what you said, I think it's a waste to put that painting with you, and you can't appreciate it."
Zeng Xinguo really didn't want to hear his nonsense: "Hurry up and get down to business. I was just out of the clinic, and I came here all of a sudden."
Gao Yueyang then said seriously: "Bai Ye, you know, right? He is the partner of your student Zi Yan, and he is currently applying for a project. Once this project produces results, it will definitely win the China Medical Science and Technology Award!"
How could Zeng Xinguo not know about Bai Ye, who is the youngest Yangtze River scholar in China, and is also privately known by everyone at the Union as a Chinese who is likely to win the Nobel Prize.
Young and promising is no longer enough to describe this young man.
When Zeng Xinguo heard that Bai Ye was applying for a topic, his eyes gleamed and he asked directly: "What topic?"
Gao Yueyang said directly: "The cobalt-chromium alloy matter has been very big recently, you know, right? Bai Ye published a special issue in "Puze Latest Medicine", and "Cell" also published it."
Zeng Yi nodded, how could he not know? Now the cobalt-chromium alloy is making a big fuss in the United States. It is said that there are problems in the American election campaign: "Well, I know, go on."
Gao Yueyang nodded: "It is almost certain that there will be a problem with the cobalt-chromium alloy. Major medical companies in the world are researching new substances and materials to compete for the market loopholes behind the cobalt-chromium alloy channel."
"But one thing I haven't thought of is how to deal with cobalt-chromium alloy! Think about it, so many patients with cobalt-chromium alloy will definitely have a large amount of cobalt-chromium ions accumulated in their bodies. The cobalt-chromium alloy now accumulated
How to remove it becomes a major issue."
"Didn't we apply for a project some time ago? Regarding the discussion of rehabilitation methods for patients with senile fracture prognosis, this project can be completely connected with Bai Ye's project."
"After all, the prognosis of fractures also includes the treatment of problems left by cobalt-chromium alloys. We can reorganize the topic. Bai Ye is looking for a solution to the problem of scavenging cobalt-chromium ions, but what we are looking for is the issue of rehabilitation after fractures."
"So, I have an idea to reorganize the subject, or even start a new subject. The main purpose of the subject is to solve the later rehabilitation of patients with cobalt-chromium alloy prostheses in the body! This is a topic that spans orthopedics, rehabilitation
It’s a topic that combines many disciplines!”
"What is the most important thing in awarding awards? Solve the current problems we are encountering. If we can solve this problem, let alone the current China Medical Science and Technology Award, I guess we will also have the Wu Jieping Medical Award."
After Gao Yueyang finished speaking, Zeng Xinguo seemed to have seen a bright future. He looked at Gao Yueyang with burning eyes, and he felt that his breathing began to become rapid.
This matter is really a big deal!
Lao Gao's idea is very creative. To put it bluntly, what is the most important thing for scientific researchers?
Solve the problem!
Now such a big problem is before us. If they can solve it, let alone the question of whether to award it or not, the contribution of countless people cannot be measured by an award.
This is a good thing that will go down in history!
However, Zeng Xinguo also thought of a key question: "Lao Gao, I understand the topics and ideas you mentioned! And I agree 100%, but... I have a key question."
"Ahem, this topic is very good, but the key is can we solve this problem? After all, it is not easy to remove and repair cobalt-chromium alloy prostheses!"
Gao Yueyang smiled: "Of course we can't!"
After Zeng Xinguo heard this, he glared at Gao Yueyang: "Then what nonsense did you say? You're trying to draw a cake for me!"
Gao Yueyang coughed: "Don't get excited. I haven't finished talking yet. I can't solve it, but there is one person who can solve it! That is your student, Li Ziyan!"
Zeng Xinguo is a mature man, how could he not understand this meaning?
He slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "That's right! As long as Zi Yan participates, Bai Ye will definitely come."
Gao Yueyang nodded with satisfaction: "Bingdog!"
The two deans looked at each other and laughed meaningfully.
……………………

Although Gao Yueyang talks a lot, he is also vigorous and resolute, and he basically responds to Bai Ye's requests, and he is almost closer to Bai Ye than his own son.
The next day, Gao Yueyang took Bai Ye to the School of Chemical Engineering at Tsinghua University to look for an academician named Cheng Ran.
Gao Yueyang said as he walked: "Academician Cheng Ran is very good at research on rare metals. He was engaged in research on inert metals in a foreign research institute at that time, and his most powerful thing is that he has done research on chemistry and materials science.
When the academicians were selected, he was the only one who had achieved great results in both fields!"
"At that time, many companies around the world sent Cheng Ran invitations with an annual salary of tens of millions, as well as naming rights such as patents, but Cheng Ran rejected them all. Moreover, he came to Tsinghua University based on the policy of introducing talent projects."
"However, although it introduces talents and has a large amount of scientific research funds, Cheng Ran rarely applies for projects in the department. He feels that domestic projects are a waste of national resources. If there is no suitable research direction, as a professor, what he should do is preach
Receive karma.”
"He is really an amazing talent. He has applied for three projects, all of which were National Natural Science Foundation projects. The maximum scientific research funding did not exceed 5 million. However, these three projects solved three major problems encountered in the country at that time. One is
Cheng Ran is the person in charge of the research on lithium batteries. These three topics have allowed him to be nominated for the Wolf Prize in Chemistry three times, and the last time he won Wolf's job, which is an affirmation of Cheng Ran."
Bai Ye knew about the Wolf Prize. The purpose of this award is to recognize scientists who have made significant contributions to the field of chemistry in addition to Nobel Prize winners in chemistry. It is one of the most influential awards in the field of chemistry.
So one can imagine how powerful Cheng Ran’s research strength is in the field of chemistry!
Gao Yueyang continued to educate Bai Ye: "Actually, speaking of it, even he himself didn't know about Cheng Ran's selection as an academician. It was several old leaders of the Tsinghua School of Chemical Engineering who pushed him for it!"
After Bai Ye listened to Gao Yueyang's introduction, his impression of Cheng Ran had risen to a certain level.
He is really a real scientific researcher who is indifferent to fame and fortune. Unlike those professors and experts nowadays, in order to obtain scientific research funds, they apply for various subjects in a mess, and then use Tai Chi to give the scientific research funds to Yun Kai...
People either don’t apply for a project, or they apply for a project and get nominated for the grand prize!
The first prize of the National Scientific and Technological Progress Award is even more readily available!
This is strength!
After arriving at Cheng Ran's office, he found that there was no one inside. When the staff saw the two of them, they greeted: "Are you two looking for Academician Cheng?"
Gao Yueyang nodded: "Well, yes, where is Academician Cheng?"
The staff member pointed to a piece of paper on the wall and said, "This is Academician Cheng's class schedule. He should be in class now. If you are in a hurry, you can go to the classroom and have a look, or you can wait here."
After Bai Ye finished listening, he suddenly became interested and pulled Gao Yueyang and said, "Shall we go and listen to Professor Cheng's class?"
Gao Yueyang actually refused in his heart, but seeing that Bai Ye was full of interest, he had no choice but to give up.
After asking around on the road, the two found the classroom where Cheng Ran lectured. It was a terraced classroom that could accommodate more than 300 people. The back door was open, and Bai Ye and the two sneaked in carefully.
There are not too many people in the classroom, only about a hundred people, but these hundred people are sitting in front, holding pens and paper in their hands to record.
And Bai Ye finally met this academician.
White shirt, suit pants, cloth shoes, black-framed glasses, this is Bai Ye's entire impression of Cheng Ran.
He was a thin man who stood on the podium with great dignity, writing and drawing on the blackboard without a smile.
Bai Ye learned the basics of biochemistry, but... it was still useless. He couldn't understand what Cheng Ran was talking about.
Especially those professional terms are so confusing that I can't even think of what they are.
I originally came in with the purpose of learning, but... I didn't expect it to be like this.
On the other hand, Gao Yueyang, who was standing aside, listened with great interest, staring at Cheng Ran intently, nodding his head from time to time, as if he could understand.
Bai Ye was shocked at this moment. The academician was indeed an academician, and he could understand even this advanced chemistry.
It seems that every academician is immeasurable!
Time passed slowly, and Bai Ye became a little impatient, because sitting there was like listening to a book from heaven, what's the point?
But look at Gao Yueyang, he has an excited look on his face, and it feels like he is enjoying the music and having endless aftertaste.
Bai Ye sighed helplessly. He didn't want to disturb Dean Gao's study, but he expressed deep regret for the decision he made.
You said you can't just calm down for a while if you have nothing to do?
I have to show off...
It's just that I'm pretending to be better than myself, so I have to keep pretending through gritted teeth, just listen...
…………
After an unknown amount of time, but it felt like a century to Bai Ye, get out of class was finally over.
All the students stood up and bowed, and even Gao Yueyang stood up and nodded to show respect.
Cheng Ran bowed in return and left. Everyone dispersed, and Bai Ye and Gao Yueyang followed Cheng Ran outside.
Bai Ye asked curiously: "Dean Gao, how was this class?"
Gao Yueyang curled his lips: "Why do you need to say that? It must be good!"
Bai Ye said awkwardly, feeling that he still had a long way to go before becoming a top student...
Bai Ye asked curiously: "Dean Gao, then... what did Academician Cheng talk about?"
Gao Yueyang's eyes widened: "What? What are you asking me to talk about? Are you kidding me?"
Bai Ye regretted it at this moment. The questions he asked were too poor, and he lost his demeanor as a top student!
Gao Yueyang sighed: "I am an orthopedic surgeon, so I can understand what is being said, but... it should be chemistry. I heard some rare elements being talked about."
Bai Ye was confused for a moment: "Don't you understand?"
Gao Yueyang replied matter-of-factly: "Yes, this is not my major. It's normal if I don't understand, right?"
Bai Ye asked in surprise: "Then I think you listened very seriously at that time? And you nodded?"
Gao Yueyang snorted and sneered: "Young man, this is called accumulation. Look at the leaders' meeting, which one below is not listening carefully, but how many of them are listening? But if you don't understand, you have to pretend.
Understand, this is called level!"
"Even if you don't understand, you still have to show interest and skill to show that you understand! This is called art!"
"Hey... you are still too young! Too immature!"
"By the way, what do you mean by that sentence? Oh! By the way, Tutu, Tuxi Mouzai!"
After finishing speaking, Gao Yueyang snorted coldly, raised his proud head, and walked forward, leaving his back like a mountain for Bai Ye to look up at.
