I just want to be a quiet scholar

Chapter 446 Receiving the Nobel Prize
Immediately afterwards, Shen Qi killed another mouse by dislocation. This mouse was healthy, and it was used as a control sample for comparison with the infected mice.

Take out the spleen of the control mouse, this organ is very small, Shen Qi must be careful enough.

The first was born and the second was cooked. Shen Qi weighed the spleens of immunized mice and control mice, put them in a petri dish containing cold Hanks solution, and blown the lamp with a straw to disperse the cells evenly.

The spleen is the largest immune organ in the body, both in humans and mice.

Shen Qi filtered the spleen cell suspension of white mice through a 100-mesh stainless steel mesh, centrifuged to remove the supernatant, and started cell counting.

The lymphocyte fluid produced by the spleen of white mice is similar to that of human beings, and is colorless and transparent.

Because of the addition of agar, Hanks solution, and DEAE glucose solution, the white mouse spleen lymphocyte fluid in front of Shen Qi's eyes was red, which was similar to the color of orange fruit.

After the mixture was uniformly solidified, it was left to stand for 15 minutes, and then placed in a warm bath at 37 degrees Celsius for 1 hour.

After the samples were taken out, Shen Qi observed the results, and placed the plate under a stereomicroscope to count the number of plaques.

A plaque represents an antibody-forming cell, and the number of plaques reflects the body's humoral immune function.

Shen Qi found that the experimental mice had more plaques than the control mice. He recorded the data and repeated the experiment. Within a few days, 10 mice were exhausted.

There were still 10 rats left, Shen Qi didn't move for now, he asked Yang Dingtian to take care of the rats, and reported to the school according to the procedure, saying that our center was doing routine animal experiments for scientific research purposes.

After everything was arranged, Shen Qi flew to Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, in early December.

On December 12th, the Stockholm Concert Hall welcomed many big names from the Swedish upper class, including members of the Swedish royal family, senior political officials, business tycoons, and cultural celebrities.

The Swedish king, prime minister, richest man, and popular singer all came. This scene is more grand than the Swedish National Day.

When Mr. Nobel was alive, he was a very famous scientist and good at financial management. He owned more than 300 patents, opened more than 100 companies and factories in more than [-] countries around the world, and accumulated a lot of wealth.

Nobel never married and had no heirs. He contributed most of his property to set up the Nobel Fund, which shocked the Swedish royal family at that time: this chemist is richer than the king!
Since the first Nobel Prize in 1901, the King of Sweden has personally awarded the Nobel Prize to commemorate Nobel, a scientist who is as rich as a country, and this tradition has continued until now.

Before the Nobel Prize awarding ceremony, Shen Qi had already met the King of Sweden and had a few conversations with him.

The king is quite simple and approachable. The old man wears glasses and has all white hair. He looks more like an old professor.

The stage of the Stockholm Concert Hall was full of flowers and colorful flags fluttering. The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra opened with a song "Music of Dorottningholm Palace", which opened the prelude to this year's Nobel Prize awarding ceremony.

This was followed by a welcome speech by the Chairman of the Nobel Foundation, and representatives of each award committee introduced the background and achievements of the winners.

The winners walked to the center of the stage one by one and received the Nobel Prize certificate and gold medal from King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden.

The bonus for each award is SEK 900 million, which is equivalent to RMB 700 million. If there are multiple winners of an award, they will share the bonus equally.

Shen Qi and two physics professors from Cambridge University shared the 900 million Swedish kronor physics award equally.

This year's Nobel Prizes are similar to previous years. Scientists from universities in the United States and Britain almost won the Nobel Prizes in science.

Shen Qi is the only scientist from an Asian university, and it is difficult for him to completely separate himself from the American academic circle. He still holds the title of Princeton Professor of Mathematics Emeritus.

The university with the largest number of Nobel Prize winners in the world is Harvard University, and Princeton ranks tenth.

In addition to two British universities, Cambridge and Oxford, the rest are all American universities.

This is also the pattern in the scientific world, where the top ten are always those well-known universities in Europe and America.

After the awards ceremony, the guests moved to Stockholm City Hall for a gala dinner.

This time the table was really filled with Nobel Prize winners. The guests at Shen Qi's table were all various Nobel Prize winners. The dining table was a long table. Everyone had their fill first, and there was a dance later.

The old lady Margaret Atwood, a Canadian female writer, is in her eighties. She is a literary prize winner. The old lady is in good health. She wears dentures, eats some salad, and can drink two sips of white wine.

"Young man, you are amazing. You have created the record for the youngest Nobel Prize." The old lady of the literature prize praised Shen Qi.

"Dear Margaret, I am actually looking forward to creating this record, but unfortunately, I am not the one who created the record." Shen Qi raised his glass and toasted the female writer.

Shen Qi won the Nobel Prize in Physics when he was 27 years old. The younger winner than Shen Qi in history is Lawrence Bragg.

Lawrence Bragg was born in Australia, and followed the famous physicist, his father Bragg the Old, to England to study at Trinity College, Cambridge.

In 1915, father and son Prague Jr. and Prague Sr. jointly won the Nobel Prize in Physics.

The reason for the award is that the father and son discovered the Bragg law of X-ray diffraction, which was later written into the university physics textbook.

Prague Jr. was only 25 years old when he won the Nobel Prize. The youngest record he created has not been broken so far.

The scientific world sometimes has to fight for fathers. Old Prague, who was famous in the academic world at that time, was willing to fly with his son and win the Nobel Prize together. This is understandable.

It is really difficult to break the record. Shen Qi debuted too late in the physics world, and he is beyond his reach. He will never be able to break the record held by little Prague in his life.

"In any case, the only people who have won the Nobel Prize under the age of 30 are Lawrence Bragg and you, Odd, you are the magic key." Yanni Sdega is a French physicist in his fifties, Working at the University of Cambridge in the UK, he and one of his colleagues shared this year's Nobel Prize in Physics equally with Shen Qi.

There is no shortage of Nobel Prize winners at this table, but Shen Qi is the only Philippine Prize winner.

Shen Qi is quite popular. He has a special status. In his twenties, he has won two Tiffin Awards and Nobel Prizes. Everyone likes to chat with him.

"Professor Stegar, I've read your article, it's great, let's drink to physics." Shen Qi raised his glass to this French physicist working in England.

"Hey, Qi, I've been to Princeton many times, it seems hard to see you." George Brown, one of the winners of this year's medicine award, is from Harvard University. He chatted with Shen Qi, who used to be allies of the Ivy League, Self-cooked.

"George, as far as I know, Princeton does not have a medical department." Shen Qi joined Professor Brown, an American medical expert who won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his research on immune mechanisms.

"The woman I love the most is in Princeton." Professor Brown said happily and entangled. According to him, he is currently single.

In fact, it is normal in the United States not to get married in the [-]s. Shen Qi asked with concern: "Which department does she work in Princeton, do you need my help, George?"

Professor Brown offered a glass of wine to Shen Qi: "She works in the Princeton Department of Mathematics and is the most beautiful woman in the world."

There are not many female employees in Princeton's Department of Mathematics, so Shen Qi learned the truth with a few casual sentences: "It's her?"

Professor Brown said that she is what she is and she is what she is, and if she cannot be married, then she will marry science in this life.

The occasion was very international. Shen Qi talked with experts and scholars, writers, artists, economists and politicians from various countries, exchanged business cards, and met many new friends.

When Shen Qi got married last year, he invited two Chinese Nobel laureates.

It's understandable, last year Shen Qi didn't do well in fields other than mathematics.

If Shen Qi gets married this year, it is really possible to invite a table of Nobel Prize winners, all types.

It is impossible to get married again, Shen Qi's wife is already pregnant and will give birth next year.

Shen Qi sent some photos and videos of him and 10 Nobel Prize winners to Ouye to see, so that his wife can rest assured to raise the baby, and properly watch the group photos and group activity videos of the Nobel Prize winners.
