Chapter 392 Highest Lifetime Achievement

Looking at Kang Chi, who couldn't walk ten steps for a long time after people came up to congratulate him after entering the venue, Zhang Dayuan couldn't help but say to Wu Lihong: "Look at our Academician Kang, he is so happy and walks with the wind, tut tut tut..."

"Your adopted nominal student is really amazing now, should we take the initiative to go over and say hello to him?"

Hearing the sour words of Academician Zhang Dayuan, Wu Lihong immediately raised his eyebrows and snorted: "What do you mean by adopted nominal student?"

"If you have the ability, go to the roadside and pick up A few nominal students, we don't ask you to be able to make controlled nuclear fusion, as long as you can make a DVU lithography machine, I will come to your door to congratulate you in person! "

"But if you don't have this ability and vision, just shut up, no one will treat you as a mute, lest this word be passed to the ears of my nominal student, and make trouble for you in the future..."

"You can do it, you are lucky, you two are the best!" Zhang Dayuan smiled embarrassedly, "Is this okay?"

Wu Lihong snorted coldly and didn't say anything.

But he couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart,

After all, it's not easy to make Zhang Dayuan admit his defeat...

Perhaps he saw the pride between Wu Lihong's eyebrows, Zhang Dayuan couldn't help but blurt out another sentence:

"It's a pity that if this person's wings are hard and he flies to the sky, he still knows the person who carried him to fly..."

This made Wu Lihong's expression stiffen for a moment.

In fact, Wu Lihong has never boasted about Kang Chi.

In the final analysis, he did not teach Kang Chi in the beginning.

At most, he secretly endorsed him a few times when he was starting out. In the later nominations of outstanding young scientists and academicians, it was almost the same with or without him. It was just icing on the cake.

The two of them have only met for no more than three days in total in the past few years. If you say how deep the friendship between teacher and student is, no one would believe it...

It's a bit unjust and unsound.

Not only Wu Lihong himself lacks confidence, but others also know that he lacks confidence.

This can be seen from the cautious attitude of Dean Qiao Bingsen when he asked Wu Lihong to invite Kang Chi to come to Suzhou University for an open class last time.

And Zhang Dayuan's words just now undoubtedly hit his biggest pain point in person...

Just after dealing with the first wave of people, Kang Chi soon saw Wu Lihong in the crowd, so he immediately walked over and greeted him: "Teacher Wu, you are here so early."

"Well, for such a grand conference, only you are willing to come so late..."

Seeing that Wu Lihong seemed a little depressed, Kang Chi couldn't help but look at Zhang Dayuan in confusion.

Zhang Dayuan's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he just nodded to him lightly.

Kang Chi also nodded in response, and then communicated with Professor Jiang who was sitting next to Wu Lihong, and Professor Jiang took the initiative to move to the side and give a seat to Kang Chi.

"Academician Kang." The receptionist who brought him in hurriedly reminded, "The seat arranged for you is in the front..."

"It's okay, I can just change seats with Professor Jiang." Kang Chi said and smiled at Professor Jiang, "Sorry to bother Professor Jiang."

Professor Jiang: "..."

Kang Chi said so, what else can he say.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow the etiquette to sit in the front.

To be honest, the view from the front was indeed good, but when the leaders around him looked at him, he felt a little embarrassed...

On the other side, after Kang Chi sat down, he immediately whispered in Wu Lihong's ear: "Teacher, did you quarrel with Academician Zhang again?"

Wu Lihong shook his head: "I'm too lazy to argue with him."

Kang Chi just laughed at this.

In his opinion, Wu Lihong not only quarreled with him, but also lost.

After all, Wu Lihong's personality is honest, while Zhang Dayuan is a bit careless and aggressive. Wu Lihong has basically never won in verbal competitions with him.

Thinking of this, Kang Chi couldn't help but stick his head out and said to Zhang Dayuan: "Academician Zhang, I have always wanted to tell you something..."

"In the past two years, our group has also recruited many of your students. I originally thought that since they were all academicians, their levels should be similar, but I found that the difference is actually quite large..."

"My senior brother Wang has been the technical director of Dahan Xinye for two years. He has made the chip manufacturing department of Dahan Xinye flourish, but your students can't even be rated as senior engineers. They need to be taught by hand to build Qin Guang No. 1..."

"I don't know if there is something wrong with your education method or the students are too poor? How about asking Teacher Wu to accept fewer students in the future and let a few better seedlings take care of you?"

After hearing this, Zhang Dayuan's old face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't say a word for a long time...

Puff——

Seeing Kang Chi speak for him so blatantly, making Zhang Dayuan so angry that he didn't know where to put his old face, Wu Lihong couldn't help laughing out loud.

The unhappiness just now disappeared immediately, and the smugness on the corners of his mouth could not be hidden...

In fact, Kang Chi's words were quite skillful. He did not compare himself, but compared Wang Haowen with Zhang Dayuan's students. As a result, he found that without the need for dimensionality reduction, his side was still as powerful!

And Kang Chi took the initiative to sit next to Wu Lihong and called Wang Haowen his senior brother, which was actually constantly giving them a hint.

He always insists that he is a student of Wu Lihong, and he will not forget that Wu Lihong gave him his original doctorate degree just because he has achieved world-renowned achievements, let alone the initial stage of Dahan Silicon Industry, which was given to him by Wu Lihong. He endorsed it!

Just when Kang Chi was chatting and laughing with Wu Lihong and Kang Chi, the conference finally entered the countdown.

As the leader entered, the scene gradually became quiet, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the solemn and solemn red podium...

At the same time, at Kang Chi's hometown in Ziyun County, Jiangbei Province, a group of guests also arrived half an hour ago.

As Kang Chi has made more and more achievements in the past two years, whenever there is a holiday in the family, it is inevitable for the leader to come over and greet the two elderly people.

Liu Xuemei and Kang Daoming are basically used to this.

They went from being flattered and submissive at the beginning to being calm, talking and laughing, and their whole auras were completely different.

As long as Kang Daoming dresses neatly and goes out, no one will think that he is a country farmer. On the contrary, some people often think that he is some kind of leader...

However, the leaders who came to their home today to pay homage to their early years seemed to have a much bigger background than before. In addition to those who came from the provincial capital, there was also a leader of the Organization Department who made a special trip from Yanjing.

Even the county leaders who usually make frequent appearances could only stand in the background and act as 'tour guides'.

As for the 'ignition' they were talking about, Kang Daoming actually didn't understand it at all and could only sigh with a smile:

"Our Xiaochi has been fond of playing with fire since he was a child, and we beat him often for this matter. I didn't expect that this kid would become famous for playing with fire..."

"Haha, Uncle Kang, you are so funny."

Everyone couldn't help laughing.

At this moment, a loud singing voice suddenly came from the TV, and everyone's expressions suddenly became serious, and they puffed up their chests and looked at the screen seriously.

After the singing slowly ended, Kang Daoming couldn't help but ask the leader sitting next to him: "What big news happened today?"

"It's not news, it's a live broadcast of the National Science and Technology Commendation Conference."

Kang Daoming nodded in understanding: "Can our Xiaochi go up to receive the award?"

The leader smiled: "We'll find out later."

award ceremony,

Experts from various scientific research fields, the country's top scholars, and the main leaders of major scientific research institutions all focused on the old man on the stage.

After the ten-minute opening speech, the conference quickly entered the awards ceremony that everyone was most looking forward to.

As usual, the winners of the country’s highest science and technology awards are announced first.

This is also the highlight of the annual National Science and Technology Commendation Conference.

The country’s highest science and technology award is a ‘lifetime achievement award’. Compared with the academician selection, its honor level is obviously higher.

This can be seen from the number of awards.

The total number of additional academicians elected by each session of the two houses is about a hundred or so.

Although the Supreme Science and Technology Award is selected once a year, no more than two people will be awarded each time, and sometimes there may even be vacancies.

In the 25 years since this award was established in 2000, only 42 scholars have received this highest honor.

It is enough to see the significance of the two words "highest".

"Energy is an important cornerstone of the development of civilization. The development and utilization of energy is one of the important contents of the history of human civilization. Since our ancestor Sui Ren learned to drill wood to make fire and successfully created the Chinese civilization, we have explored and utilized new energy. The pace of developing new energy utilization technologies has never stopped. We have experienced the development and evolution process from wood to coal, from oil to natural gas, from electricity to nuclear energy..."

“Throughout the entire history of mankind, we have experienced many major energy changes. Each breakthrough in energy development and utilization and technology has greatly improved social productivity and the progress of civilization. Especially in modern times, with the increase in energy The importance of energy is growing day by day, and those countries and regions that are energy-rich and leading in energy technology innovation tend to have faster economic growth.”

"The successful ignition of the 'Jinwu-1' controlled nuclear fusion research project led by the China Joint Research Institute of Controlled Nuclear Fusion marks a major breakthrough in the way humans obtain energy and solves the problems caused by the gradual depletion of fossil energy. The energy crisis..."

"The first winner of the country's highest science and technology award is: Academician Kang Chi, chief engineer of China's controllable nuclear fusion!"

The moment the name was announced, thunderous applause erupted in the venue.

In fact, from the first word the old man said, everyone guessed that the first winner today must be Kang Chi.

But when the old man actually pronounced the name, it still shocked many people.

Previous recipients of this award were all in a certain field of scientific research. From their prime to their gray hair, they spent a lifetime of hard work accumulating experience and research, and finally gained the opportunity to move from quantitative change to qualitative change... …

At the age of 31, he won the highest lifetime achievement award in science in the country...

It’s simply unimaginable for them!

However, many people have heard rumors before that Kang Chi's quota was actually locked in advance at the beginning of the year.

However, what was locked in advance at that time was Qinguang No. 1 EUV lithography machine technology as the main commendation technology.

Although it has been temporarily changed to Jinwu No. 1, the winner is still the same, so the impact is not great.

In fact, this also indirectly shows how legitimate it is for Kang Chi to win this award.

Fortunately, this award can only be won once in a lifetime.

Otherwise, he might be able to win several more awards with Qinguang No. 1, solid-state batteries, and quantum communication technology. Even with his amazing performance, he might have monopolized this award for many years in the future...

——

At the same time, at Kang Chi's home, the leaders also applauded excitedly.

"Congratulations to Uncle Kang and Aunt Liu. Your son has given you and our Jiangbei Province and Ziyun County a lot of face this time!"

Kang Daoming and Liu Xuemei naturally laughed so hard after hearing the old man read out Kang Chi's name, and they were proud of their son from the bottom of their hearts.

But to be honest, they only knew that Kang Chi won a big award. As for the meaning of this award, they actually had no idea at all. They thought it was probably similar to the national-level "Outstanding Youth Award".

Until they heard the leader explain that this award had been established for 25 years and only 42 people had won it, they were so surprised that their mouths could not close...

"Is this award really that great?"

"Of course, this is the highest recognition and honor given by the country to Kang Chi for his great contribution in the field of scientific research. You can tell everyone in the future that your son is the greatest scientist in China! We really have to thank you on behalf of the country for helping the country cultivate such an outstanding talent as Academician Kang."

As they spoke, they applauded again.

This made the two elders feel like they were standing on a ball of cotton, and their whole bodies were light...

At the same time, in the CCTV live broadcast room, the audience also used barrages to send congratulations and sighs to Kang Chi.

"I don't want to say anything extra, I just want to say one thing: Mr. Kang is the best!"

"Haha, last night some foreign friends questioned whether the ignition of Jinwu No. 1 was true or false, but Mr. Kang directly accepted the award, the highest science and technology award, you guys tell me whether it's true or not?"

"Oh, I'm so excited, I've been watching our Master Kang grow up day by day, and I'm happier to see him win this award than if I win it myself..."

"My goodness, buddy, are you playing a scientist training game?"

"You said that, as if you can get it..."

"He was elected as an academician of the two academies some time ago, and now he has won this award. Mr. Kang's domestic scientific achievements are already a grand slam, right?"

"Speaking of which, Nobel didn't even give our Mr. Kang an award?"

"Haha, forget about these foreign fake awards, the gold content is getting lower and lower."

"The Nobel Prize is still somewhat gold-containing, but I'm too lazy to accept it even if it's awarded, otherwise something will definitely go wrong halfway!"

"..."
