1991 Starting from the core

The moment his father's call was connected, Su Yuanshan was a little emotional, and even looked back at Ma Mengqi as if he was "wandering".

——This "historic moment" was actually "witnessed" by Ma Mengqi with him.

"Hill."

On the phone, Academician Su Xinghe's voice was a little calm, but there was obviously a hint of suppressed excitement in his calmness.

——Although he said that he was very indifferent to Su Yuanshan, he even simulated the words to "comfort" his son several times in his mind. You know, his son has been carrying a genius all the way, but he has never experienced it. What setbacks have you experienced? Not winning this year's Nobel Prize is at least a bit disappointing - not to mention the two back-to-back papers that were so sensational last year, even his students were named among the top ten figures in Nature.

Therefore, Academician Su Xinghe has long calculated the timing of the Nobel Prize draw.

It was lottery draw time in an hour - the old man obviously knew that at this juncture, his son's phone call to him would not be an insignificant routine.

Both father and son are busy and don't have much to talk about at home.

"Dad." Su Yuanshan took a deep breath and said with a smile, "I just received a call from the Nobel Prize Committee, saying that it is me this year."

After a second of silence, my father's voice came from the phone: "Yeah! Okay! Okay! Come on! Continue..."

Su Yuanshan suddenly became happy: "Dad, do you think I am still a student?"

"Hahahaha!" Su Xinghe laughed heartily: "I suddenly forgot...I don't know how to encourage you."

Then both father and son stopped talking at the same time, slowly savoring the joy.

A few seconds later, Su Xinghe took a long breath and said with a smile: "Okay, hang up the phone. I guess there are a lot of people you want to inform in advance. We'll talk about it when we get back. I'll tell your mother the good news first."

"okay."

"By the way, you have to make sure that there is no one playing a prank... It is said that someone made a joke and lied to others about winning the Nobel Prize."

"……ah?"

…

Although he knew his father was joking, it undoubtedly gave Su Yuanshan a wake-up call... making him more "cautious". Then he dialed his wife's phone number.

Obviously, hearing Ye Rudai's voice, she wasn't still asleep.

Then, he notified Xi Xiaoding, and then Qin Weimin.

After making these calls, he put down the phone - because Ma Mengqi had been waiting for him.

"Have seen enough?"

"Enough. I'm waiting for you - do you want me to send a group message?" Ma Mengqi also gradually calmed down from the previous excitement and looked at Su Yuanshan happily.

"Go away, it should be officially announced in half an hour - and what if a Swede makes a joke to me?" Su Yuanshan sat back on his chair and waved at Ma Mengqi: "Don't make a joke, then I But it’s so embarrassing.”

Unexpectedly, Ma Mengqi pursed his lips: "Who dares to joke with you...Besides, joking about the Nobel Prize is mostly a disservice to academic circles. Ordinary people don't even know who the person notifying them is..."

"... Anyway, let's keep it quiet for now."

Then... not ten seconds after Ma Mengqi went out, Wen Xiaoqian opened the door, her eyes full of surprise: "Mr. Shan, is it true?"

"Ma Mengqi is such a talker..." Su Yuanshan nodded helplessly with a smile in his eyes. Then he thought about it and handed the phone to Wen Xiaoqian: "There will probably be a lot of calls later, so you can answer it for me."

"Oh, wait a minute, I'll make a call again."

With that said, Su Yuanshan took a deep breath and dialed the phone number he had agreed with.

The secretary answered the call, but when he heard it was Su Yuanshan, the leader immediately took the phone.

"Leader, I just received a call from the Nobel Committee. This year's Nobel Prize in Physics is mine."

"Well, it will probably be announced in less than half an hour. But in view of the history of someone making phone calls and impersonating... So, the main thing is to give a formal notification."

Facing the phone, Su Yuanshan smiled broadly: "If I'm cheated, don't blame me."

A hearty laugh came from the phone: "If someone really lied to you, I'll help you beat him up!"

Su Yuanshan: "..."

…

Half an hour later, the Nobel Committee officially announced that the winner of this year's physics prize was Su Yuanshan, the only one, the only one.

This means that Su Yuanshan will receive the US$500,000 bonus alone.

"I guess no one asked me how I would spend the five hundred thousand US dollars, right?" Su Yuanshan was lying on a chair, his mind filled with all kinds of questions - behind the Nobel Prize, there are countless reporters and reports. Unclear various meetings, reports, speeches.

Especially in China, Su Yuanshan is so far the only Nobel Prize winner who was born in China, grew up in China, studied in China, and did domestic scientific research, and it is a Nobel Prize in physics. Its significance... cannot be overstated.

The most direct thing is that this land can give birth to geniuses, provide soil for geniuses, and allow geniuses to grow and eventually become famous!

Therefore, Su Yuanshan does not intend to avoid the media, nor will he find any excuses to refuse interviews.

He is willing to be an example that will be "held up to the sky" by others, just like the light that tears through the dark sky, illuminating the direction for those smart people who are willing to believe in the future of this country.

It would be even better if we could drive away a little more darkness.

…

That afternoon, Wen Xiaoqian answered the phone for Su Yuanshan and was met with soft feelings. However, as a qualified secretary, she quickly arranged an interview appointment for Su Yuanshan for the next week.

Su Yuanshan, of course, went to Pandora and had a small gathering with Xi Xiaoding, Tian Yaoming, Li Yinan, Ma Mengqi, and Qin Weimin who came from next door.

At eight o'clock in the evening, he went home and drank with his father over the evening's food and wine.

"It's good for you. I threw the phone to Wen Xiaoqian, but they all came here to me." Su Xinghe raised his glass, shook it at Su Yuanshan, drank it in one gulp, smacked his mouth with great satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Take that. What are your plans for the next few days?"

"There are mainly a few exclusive interviews, and then I have to go to Beijing. But before going to Beijing, I will go to the school to give a report."

Su Xinghe comforted her with an expression that seemed to be wise to you.

"Then there are reports from various places, especially from various schools... We can't focus on one thing at home and abroad. Anyway, I don't think we can do much this year. We have to travel all over the world."

"Well, after all..." Su Xinghe endured it for a few moments. Even though he knew that his son was mature and prudent and must understand what this Nobel Prize means to the country, he still couldn't help but remind him with emotion: "It means a lot!"

"Yes, from top to bottom, this country needs self-confidence so much."

Su Yuanshan drank three ounces of liquor in one gulp, but his throat burned unexpectedly. He coughed twice, looked at the red and white wine bottle with a puzzled look on his face: "Is it fake? Didn't it say that Maotai doesn't burn his throat?" "

"Hahaha, you kid, who dares to give me fake wine? Do you really think that your old man can't taste the taste of Moutai? You're drinking it the wrong way."

"Hehe... I won't learn anymore." Su Yuanshan planned to pour himself another glass, but unexpectedly his father was quick and took the bottle first and filled it up for him.

"Xiaoshan, congratulations on winning the Nobel Prize."

"Thanks dad."

The father and son raised their glasses at the same time and drank it in one gulp.

With the announcement of the Nobel Prize in Physics, the voices on the Internet that were still questioning and could even be regarded as "crusades" about Yuanxin suddenly stopped.

Even those big Vs who usually spoke uprightly and even had a "martyr" consciousness collectively fell silent.

Especially the previous blog post questioning Su Yuanshan's academic qualifications and scholarship. Although with the fate of Li Mingliu, Gao Xiaodi and others, and the employees of Yuanxin with various "non-disclosure of identities" support, most people have begun to I laughed at that blog post. However, the translation and forwarding by Western media such as CNN and BBC have received a large number of support from users in English-speaking areas.

But after the Nobel Prize went to Su Yuanshan, CNN and other media quickly deleted the previous retweets and reported the news that Su Yuanshan won the Nobel Prize in Physics in a sour tone.

In the news, CNN first falsely introduced how Su Yuanshan discovered graphene, and finally said as if joking: "This year's Nobel Prize in Physics tells us that the threshold for winning a Nobel Prize is very low, and sometimes just You just need to be able to tear off the tape."

I have to say that this report is of high quality, old hermaphrodite.

But these are just "small" episodes on the Internet, the kind that can't make waves at all.

The real highlight is Su Yuanshan’s subsequent interviews and speech arrangements along the way.

A week later, he arrived in the capital on a private plane. After landing, an Audi drove to the tarmac, and the leader's secretary picked him up directly in the car.

"Bureau Chen, how dare you trouble yourself to come here in person?"

Seeing the former Secretary Chen follow him up, Su Yuanshan was also a little emotional. In a blink of an eye, he and Secretary Chen have known each other for ten years.

"Firstly, it was the leader who told me personally. Secondly, it was me who volunteered." Although Secretary Chen no longer follows the leader, he still works in the capital. He is dressed in a suit and is very formal, but his speech is very homely. Looking at Su Yuanshan, he looked full of emotion and envy: "The old leader also said that when you go to receive the award, he will send it to you personally."

"Haha... The leader was just joking."

Secretary Chen smiled slightly: "I don't think he was joking like that."

Su Yuanshan laughed with emotion, shaking his head while laughing: "By the way, how is the leader's health?"

"It's pretty good. Sometimes I have a little problem... Well, what he said is that when you get older, how can you still be as good as a young man?"

Su Yuanshan pursed his lips and nodded, and then started to chat with Secretary Chen.

That night, the leader greeted Su Yuanshan at his home, and of course the two of them had to drink a little...

While drinking, the leader was most impressed by the fact that Su Yuanshan really won the Nobel Prize well, within seconds, and on time.

Su Yuanshan understood what the leader meant.

——In order to promote the transfer of new energy and allow new energy vehicles to get on the fast track of speeding up domestic highway infrastructure, leaders have actually done a lot of work and encountered a lot of resistance.

After all, this is not a new industry simply "opened up", but an area destined to "eliminate" old industries.

It is still more than half a year before the official announcement of the 11th Five-Year Plan, and as long as there is no official announcement, it means that everything is possible.

Therefore, during this period of time, the most common words heard from leaders were "so ambitious"...

As a leader who has great confidence in Su Yuanshan, one can imagine the pressure he is under.

It can be said that some time ago, all the public opinions on the Internet about Yuanxin, Dianke, and Su Yuanshan were the result of a group of people who didn't like Yuanxin's "good" development.

But as Su Yuanshan won the Nobel Prize, all opposition disappeared.

——No one dares to ignore the first purely domestic Nobel Prize scholar.

Then Su Yuanshan also expressed his position to the leadership, saying that he would focus on academic exchanges and reports in the next six months, and be a good Nobel Prize scholar.

These words naturally made the leader even more happy.

The next day, Su Yuanshan went to P University and began his lecture in the Physics Department of P University.

"Hello, classmates, I am Su Yuanshan."

Standing on the podium again, Su Yuanshan looked at the sea of ​​people in the auditorium, and suddenly fell into memories.

Ten years ago, when he first published his discovery of graphene in Nature, he was also invited by the Physics Department of P University to give a lecture.

And today, he is also standing here.

Ten years ago, he told everyone - the more extraordinary you are, the more closely related the fate of the motherland is to you.

Now that ten years have passed, I don’t know how many people have listened to it, and I don’t know how many people have become extraordinary since then.

"Ten years ago, I also gave a lecture here. Now that I have returned to my old place...except for the professors in front of me who are still acquaintances, I actually don't know any of the other classmates."

"Ten years ago, I left my email address on the blackboard. From the beginning, I received about ten emails per month, but gradually disappeared after a year or two..."

Su Yuanshan smiled and shook his head: "It's like time has disappeared."

"Okay, today is a lecture on physics, so we won't mention the sadness of spring and autumn. But I know that everyone here wants to hear more about my feelings after receiving the news of the Nobel Prize, right? "

The audience laughed and burst into applause.

"Logically speaking, I should say that I was surprised...and pleasantly surprised. This is in line with the logic of normal people. But in fact...of course, I am happy, but there are not too many surprises."

"This is not that I am arrogant, but that as a scientist, your bounden duty should be to pursue science and the unknown. And in the process of pursuing science, all the gains you gain are the rewards of fate - if there is It’s fate – and the Nobel Prize is just recognition and reward from others.”

"Ten years ago, I stood here and said that I hope everyone can maintain their love for technology and science. Ten years later, I stand here and say the same thing."

"Pursue science and technology. Then your life will definitely become extraordinary because of it."
