Great Country Academician

Hearing the news that the peer review had passed successfully, Xu Chuan showed a bright smile on his face.

The NS equation has a special meaning to him, and it is a dream for two lifetimes.

After tidying up his clothes, he bowed slightly to the four people in front of him to express his thanks for their hard work during this time.

"Thank you! This is the best news I've ever heard!"

To be honest, Xu Chuan was also surprised by the peer review speed of NS equation proof papers.

It took less than 20 days to pass the peer review. This speed, when placed on a guess at the level of the Millennium Problem, can be described as lightning.

Under normal circumstances, even if the certifier successfully passed the report meeting and conquered most of the people, it would take at least two months to pass the peer review if everything goes well.

In order to ensure the correctness of the paper, especially this kind of proof paper that has a great impact on the entire mathematics community, it is necessary to repeat the review over and over again to verify that every detail of the paper is correct.

But this time, on the one hand, the proof of the NS equation is only the last step, and the previous related papers have been reviewed.

On the other hand, the mathematical tool "micro-element construction method" to solve this problem is so perfect that the peer review panel can hardly find its flaws.

Therefore, after discussion between the peer review panel and the members of the International Mathematical Union, it was decided to unanimously approve the proof paper of the NS equation.

On the side, Robert, the editor-in-chief of "New Advances in Mathematics", walked up with a smile, gave him a hug, and patted his back hard.

"Congratulations, Xu. Your paper will be published in the next issue of Advances in Mathematics. We will try our best to promote this great success to the mathematics and physics communities so that more people can know about it."

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Thank you."

The proof paper of the NS equation passed the final peer review, and the time came to the middle and late December.

After a two-day break, the academician co-option meeting for 2019 is about to begin.

Xu Chuan didn't waste any more time, packed his luggage and took the high-speed train to the capital.

The place to stay is still the familiar Beihai Hotel, and even the room is the same as before.

According to the hotel manager, this room has become his exclusive guest room, and no matter how long after he leaves, he will not arrange for other people to stay.

After staying in the hotel and resting for a night, the 2019 academician co-option meeting of the two academies officially started.

In the early morning, when the sky was getting bright, Xu Chuan had already gotten up and washed himself.

After a simple breakfast in the hotel, he took the special car arranged by the science and technology department and came all the way to the Huaguo Assembly Hall.

When he followed the concierge staff to the venue through the inspection at the door, the entire venue was already crowded with people.

Seeing the shaking of heads in the auditorium, Xu Chuan sighed a little. He thought he had come early. After all, the official meeting didn't start until ten o'clock, and it was only half past eight.

As a result, it seems that he may be the latest batch to come.

Seeing Xu Chuan coming in, the etiquette personnel waiting in the venue immediately came over: "Professor Xu, your place is the third in the middle group of the second row, do you want me to take you there?"

Xu Chuan nodded and said with a smile, "Then I will trouble you."

To be honest, although the venue was crowded with people, he didn't know many people.

Of course, this also has something to do with his lack of communication in domestic academic circles. Since returning to China, he has hardly been out of Jinling except for things related to projects.

In addition, it has only been two years since he became famous and returned to China, so he really doesn't know many people.

At least, he didn't know many people who came to attend the report meeting on the selection of academicians of the two academies today.

Just because he doesn't know other people doesn't mean that the other people who attended the meeting don't know him.

As Xu Chuan followed the etiquette staff into the venue, someone soon came up to greet him warmly.

"Professor Xu. Long time no see." A middle-aged man in a suit came over and greeted him warmly with a smile on his face.

Xu Chuan stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look. The person in front of him seemed familiar. After a quick thought, he came to his senses and greeted with a smile, "Long time no see, Dean Liu."

The person who greeted him in front of him was Professor Liu Changan, the general manager of the Observation Array Center of the Southern Dian Observatory, who studied under Academician Nan Rendong.

When he used the Xu-Weyl-Berry theorem to expand the application to conduct observation experiments on parameter four, he had met with this Dean Liu several times.

Did not expect to meet here today.

"It's been a few years since I left. I didn't expect Professor Xu to still remember me." Liu Changan replied with a smile, feeling a little emotional.

In a few years, the young genius who was already highly valued by the country during his freshman year has now grown into the No. 1 in domestic academic circles, and even ranked in the top three in the whole world, not to mention the first.

If we only look at his theoretical achievements in mathematics and physics, no one would object to saying that he is No. 1.

Two millennium problems, one Nobel Prize, involving mathematics, physics, astronomy and many other fields, the weight is enough to push him to be the number one person in today's mathematics field.

Not to mention today's academia, even if you look at the entire history, there are only a handful of people with such achievements.

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "I was at the observation array center of the Southern Yunnan Observatory back then, thanks to Dean Liu's care."

Liu Chang'an smiled and said, "Well, it's nothing more than the matter of the two researchers. Speaking of it, the observation results of Betelgeuse you left at the observation array center of the Southern Yunnan Observatory are more helpful to me."

"If it weren't for your important astronomical achievements, I might not have the opportunity to stand here today."

Although his senior brother Professor Nan Rendong, the development of astronomy in China is relatively late. At present, the close-range astronomical phenomena that can be observed have been divided up by foreign astronomical institutions. It is still difficult to make achievements.

The achievement of a companion star in the hydrogen envelope of Betelgeuse is undoubtedly subversive in the astronomical field.

Although it was made by the young man in front of him, as the general director of the Observation Array Center of the Southern Yunnan Observatory, he still received a lot of bonuses.

After all, it is the result made by them with the help of observation array equipment, and there is no way to get around them. Coupled with the original achievements and contributions, he has the opportunity to stand here today.

Otherwise, according to his original estimate, he would have to wait at least a few years or even more than ten years to continue honing his qualifications and achievements before he could have a chance to be nominated.

Hearing this, Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Dean Liu is being modest. Everyone knows your contribution to the astronomy industry. The discovery of Betelgeuse is just icing on the cake."

Liu Changan smiled and said, "When will Professor Xu have time to go to the Observation Center again and give us some pointers on the development route of our domestic astronomy?"

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "I don't dare to give advice, I will definitely go there when I have time."

"Hahaha, okay, then it's settled, I must come when I have time." Liu Changan replied with a laugh, and he didn't take too much of Xu Chuan's time.

In this conference, not only him, there must be more people who want to say hello to this young national treasure scholar and get acquainted with each other, so he just chatted a few words to leave an impression and then left up.

And Xu Chuan followed the etiquette staff to continue to his seat. Along the way, many people came up to greet him, and he responded politely one by one.

As time passed, the start of the conference entered the countdown.

The professors and scholars who participated in this grand event took their seats one after another, and leaders at all levels came to the scene one after another, and the hall gradually became quiet.

The red curtain and the bright red podium set off the dignified and solemn atmosphere of the entire hall.

As the loud and clear national anthem sounded, all the guests in the great hall stood up.

When the loud voice came to an end, after nearly two years of selection, the 2019 academician co-option report conference, which has attracted the attention of domestic academic circles, officially kicked off.

Academician Bai Lichun, the dean of the Hua Guohua Academy of Sciences and the executive chairman of the presidium of the Faculty, took the lead to deliver an opening speech.

Afterwards, he made a speech on stage, hoping that the newly elected academicians will take practical actions to strengthen the construction of style of work and study, set an example in promoting the spirit of scientists and maintaining scientific ethics, play a leading role in academics, and continue to climb the peak of science and technology.

After some impassioned speeches, the conference also entered the final topic, announcing the list of co-opted academicians of the two academies in 2019.

The list is sorted by the pinyin of the surnames of the academic departments. Under the passionate and steady voice of the presiding staff, the first person to be awarded the list of academicians of the Huaguo Academy of Sciences.

Chang Jin is the director of the Purple Mountain Astronomical Observatory.

He has made important progress in space detection of dark matter, development of space astronomical observation equipment, and data analysis. He has innovated and developed a new technology for high-energy cosmic ray electronic detection, which has been successfully applied to the ATIC experiment of Antarctic long-period balloon detection.

Made important contributions to the development of astronomy in Huaguo.

In the audience, as the first list was announced, warm applause also sounded in the great hall, and everyone was congratulating this great scholar.

On the other side, in Nantah University, in the office of Liu Gaojun, the principal of the administration building, Chen Zhengping, Rong Zhizhuan, the dean of the School of Mathematics, and Yu Yongwang, the dean of the School of Physics, were sitting on the sofa and chatting while watching the TV on the wall.

"It's been almost twenty years, and our school has finally produced another young academician." In the office, Liu Gaojun watched the live broadcast on TV and sighed.

Since the year 2000, although Nantah University has produced academicians, there have been no young academicians under the age of 40 for 20 years.

The last time NTU produced young academicians under the age of 40 was in 1997.

On the side, Rong Zhizhuan said with a smile: "I heard that the Academy of Engineering has also submitted the list of Professor Xu. I wonder if he will have the opportunity to be an academician of both academies this year?"

Hearing this, Chen Zhengping shook his head slightly and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Liu Gaojun accepted the words with a smile: "Based on his achievements, it is enough to obtain academician qualifications in both the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, but I am afraid that it is impossible to obtain academicians of both academies in the same year."

"After all, there is no case where the academicians of the two academies are awarded to the same person in the same year, unless the higher authorities can make an exception."

"However, after a few more years, the academicians of the two academies should be fine. At that time, Nantah University will also have a scholar at the academician level of the two academies."

On the side, Yu Yongwang smiled and said: "It's better to say that this time he can get a place in the Academy of Sciences or the Academy of Engineering."

Chen Zhengping thought for a while, and said: "The high probability is the Academy of Sciences. Although the artificial sei film and nuclear waste recycling technology projects he researched are very important, the weight of the Nobel Prize + Philippine Prize is still greater."

"Look, no matter what, Professor Xu will definitely get one this year."
