Chapter 934 Academician

After the daytime meeting, there will be an evening party in the evening. A large number of awards will be presented at the evening party to encourage scientists and entrepreneurs who have made significant contributions to the development of China's science and technology.

The whole party was live-streamed, and there were a lot of bigwigs on the scene. Coupled with the enthusiasm of Huaxia Science and Technology Take-off 2030 Plan during the day, many people were attracted to watch the live broadcast.

The viewing volume of the whole party in the early stage remained at around 10 million until 8:20 in the evening. The viewing volume of the live broadcast of the party on Qingfeng.com went from 10 million to 50 million in just ten minutes, and it was still Growing.

Just because one thing was announced on the spot: Meng Qian was awarded the title of academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The Internet exploded all of a sudden.

"Why is Meng Qian an academician? He is a businessman, and a businessman being an academician is the biggest stain on science!"

"Why can't a businessman be an academician? The academician rate in the United States is the highest in the world. This is a key factor for the scientific development of private enterprises in the United States.

Your thinking is like that group of people who resolutely opposed the joint research and development of private enterprises with state-owned enterprises and the military. If you had listened to people like you at that time, our technological level would not be so fast today. "

"But businessmen are after all profit-seeking, academicians are all engaged in research and development,"

"Can you stop having such a stereotyped impression of academicians? Do academicians have to be people who live and live in laboratories all year round and spend their entire lives throwing away all their hair in exchange for scientific research results?

Can thinking not be so pedantic, you guys? Wouldn't it be better for the country to be able to engage in research and development and also engage in business? "

"To put it bluntly, it's not because Meng Qian is rich, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences has to bow to money."

"Let's talk about Meng Qian's achievements. Deep learning, edge computing, 3D transistors, how many world-changing things Meng Qian proposed, what can't be done as an academician?"

There was a lot of noise online, but Meng Qian didn't know it at all.

After returning to their seats, everyone at the same table changed their address, "Academician Meng."

Only then did the netizens who had been watching the live broadcast realize that Meng Qian was sitting at the same table as Dean Bai.

Dean Bai looked at Meng Qian and said suddenly, "The competition among Huami companies is a bit lively recently."

Meng Qian didn't understand what he meant, so he replied normally, "Enterprise competition, you can't avoid it, you have to touch it."

"Mr. Meng, if there is any project in the future that we old guys think will be useful, please remember to speak up."

Only then did Meng Qian understand the hint, and expressed his thanks with a toast.

As the party continued, Meng Qian took out his mobile phone to check the news while watching the show, and only then did he know that people on the Internet were arguing about his becoming an academician.

It took some time to understand some controversies on the Internet, Meng Qian put down his phone and patted Dean Bai's arm, "Dean Bai, I just suddenly thought that I really have a project here, I don't know if you are interested .”

"Oh? What project, tell me."

"Make a variety show."

"Variety show?" The expectant eyes of everyone at the same table instantly became inexplicable, "The variety show Mr. Meng talked about is the variety show in our conventional understanding?"

"Everyone, let me explain. I promoted one thing more than ten years ago. In today's words, it is the popularity of scientists. The result is not bad.

Aren't variety shows very popular in the past two years? Dafeng Entertainment is currently preparing a variety show about scientists. If the bigwigs from the Chinese Academy of Sciences are willing to participate, the effect of the show will definitely be very good.

It can also better realize our original intention of making the show. "

Dean Bai waved his hand, "Mr. Meng was joking, young people nowadays would not like to see us boring old men."

"Your words are biased. A scientist is not a boring old man. You can see that Mr. Yuan has been frequently searched for in the past two years. On the one hand, it is because of his achievements, and on the other hand, it is because of his cute.

Even the video of Mr. Yuan disliking students has become a widely circulated joke on the Internet.

And in the past two years, everyone should have noticed that CCTV has taken the lead in starting the down route. CCTV Tiantuan is very popular now, and this time, young people have gone to watch the news broadcast. What young people watch the news broadcast, it is good not to scold the news broadcast.

Although there are indeed some voices who question CCTV’s approach, we always firmly believe that no matter whether it is a person or an industry, it must be rooted in the land, and those who put themselves on the top will easily become floating clouds.

As far as I get along, you are completely different from the public's stereotype of academicians, and we should let everyone see it.

Of course, the most important point is what is our purpose in doing this.

If it is only for the ratings and only for cash, it is indeed an insult to science, but if we can really use this combination with young people’s favorite things to achieve more comprehensive science popularization and dig out more people’s inner love for science I think it is meaningful to build a more accessible bridge between the so-called ordinary people and scientists.

After all, we still have to admit that there are indeed generation gaps between people of different ages, but we can build bridges across these generation gaps. "

Everyone exchanged eye contact for a while, and Dean Bai asked, "But what are we doing in variety shows?"

"There are many things that can be done. "Let's Talk" has invited academicians, and the effect is also very good. Oh yes, there is a video that has become very popular recently. You can also watch it."

Meng Qian took out his mobile phone and found a video, "This video has been viewed more than 100 million times, and it has sparked a lot of heated discussions on the Internet."

After opening the video, it was a conversation between several academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering participating in an interview with Dafeng Entertainment.

"I'm a junior high school student. I was really bored at home during the summer vacation in high school, so I asked my brother to ask for high school textbooks and studied for more than a month. Later, when I got full marks in the high school entrance examination, I asked the teacher for a test paper of the college entrance examination standard for fun. , As a result, the full score was 750 and I got 749 in the test. My class teacher thought that I might not be interesting in high school, so he asked me to ask about direct admission to university.

At that time, I really didn't take it seriously, so I hummed casually, but it didn't take long for my class teacher to ask me which Tsinghua University and Yanda University I wanted to go to, and then I went to university in such a daze.

So the thing I regret most in my life is the admission to Tsinghua University. I didn’t have a high school life, and I lost a memory that should have been very good. "

"My situation is similar to yours. I also learned high school knowledge by myself when I graduated from junior high school, but I didn't because I was bored. I wanted to go because I saw a news about the admissions of China University of Science and Technology in the newspaper and thought it was cool.

Then I asked my teacher if there was any way to go to the University of Science and Technology of China earlier. If he and I had particularly outstanding grades, he would be recommended. I started self-study at that time, but I didn’t go to high school. The test was accepted.

So I’m different from you. I’m not very interested in life in middle school and high school. My biggest regret is that I didn’t learn about the recommendation policy of the Chinese Academy of Sciences earlier, mainly because I didn’t expect the college entrance examination to be so simple. "

"I really envy you, you all went to junior high school."

Everyone in the Chinese Academy of Sciences carefully watched a ten-minute video, and someone couldn't help asking, "Won't this make people feel proud? Doesn't it make people want to beat them to death?"

Meng Qian was amused, "The same words are spoken by different people with different tones and different attitudes in different scenes, different environments, and the effect is completely different.

You can read the comments of netizens, which seem to be very sour, but in fact they all find it very interesting, and it also inspired some people's fighting spirit. This is the key to the popularity of this video. "

"But does this help young people fall in love with science?" Academician Bai was obsessed with this question.

"Let's put it this way, people actually have a characteristic, that is, they are willing to admit their shortcomings but are not reconciled, and often the outstanding people are the group of people who magnify their unwillingness infinitely.

At the same time, human beings also have a particularly strange characteristic. It is easy for us to envy and envy the acquaintances around us, but we seldom envy and envy a stranger.

Strange excellence often attracts the public more than jealousy and low self-esteem.

Moreover, because the post-90s and post-00s have a better economic foundation, they are becoming more and more individualized, more confident and self-improving, and more tolerant, including tolerance for themselves.

The variety show we are going to do next is to integrate professionalism, fun and entertainment.

There will be professional collisions, interesting daily routines, and interactions that young people can't help but want to participate in.

Our program does not intend to create any scientist internet celebrity, so it will not delay your subsequent work, but your appearance can increase the attractiveness of the creation. "

"To be honest, I still don't quite understand Mr. Meng's meaning, but if it can promote young people's interest in science, I'm willing to do it." Dean Bai is very sincere.

On the contrary, several other people understood a little bit, and after understanding, everyone agreed. At least, this is something that can be considered to break through.

Meng Qian hurriedly raised his glass, "Then I'll book a few schedules in advance. With the support of all the bosses, I believe the popularity of the show will definitely explode."
