I really just want to be a scholar

Qin Ke had not considered this issue. He thought for a while and then said: "The teamwork of the 'Planet Shield' project was formed purely because of the threat of a major crisis, and the funds also came from the strong support of various countries, but in this way The blood transfusion model is unsustainable. According to the original plan negotiated by various countries, this team of hundreds of thousands of people will be disbanded in one month. If you ask my opinion, it should be transformed into transnational, purely academic and scientific research. There are also world-class scientific research organizations that we can cooperate with. But as far as I know, there are many similar world-class academic research organizations. One more is not too much, and one is too few. I prefer scientific research to management, and I don’t have any. Interested in being the initiator and manager.”

Qin Ke is telling the truth. If you want to truly separate your nationality and ethnic group for scientific research cooperation, it will be like this "super giant solar storm" crisis that threatens the survival of human beings around the world. Otherwise, it will be difficult to truly achieve it.

There are currently many international scientific research and academic organizations with similar goals, but except for the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), which requires astronomical amounts of funds to maintain and is focused on purely theoretical directions, multinational joint scientific research organizations have achieved good results. Most of them eventually become bridges and links between the scientific communities of various countries. They promote academic exchanges and improvements by convening large-scale conferences. At most, they can only jointly carry out some relatively basic research, such as the International Science Council ISC, the International The Mathematical Union IMU, such as the International Astronomical Union IAU, are such organizations.

Qin Ke was not interested in joining in the fun. Instead of wasting time on these flashy academic research exchange activities that were more formal than substantive, he preferred to focus on scientific research, engage in his favorite research work, and explore the mysteries of science.

What's more, the research topics he wants to carry out such as controllable nuclear fusion, interstellar navigation, Mars base, human longevity gene research, etc. are all major directions that all countries are closely focused on, and it is impossible to conduct cross-border cooperation.

Qin Ke's answer made many people quietly breathe a sigh of relief. Now Qin Ke's prestige in the international scientific research community is too high, especially after experiencing this scientific research to save the world, he can even be said to be the number one person. If Qin Ke stands up and raises his voice, it is estimated that there will be a large number of responders, and another large-scale multinational scientific research giant will be born, which is really uneasy.

Another foreign reporter asked: "Academician Qin, what are your plans next? Are there any research directions that you are interested in?"

Qin Ke smiled and said, "What's next? I want to take a break for a while, spend some time with my family, and then continue to fulfill my duties as a professor, teach and educate people, and complete the doctoral student training work I owed before. As for the research direction, I don't have too many plans for now. I will probably do pure academic research first, such as solving the remaining Millennium Conjecture, and completing the 'mathematical grand unified theoretical framework' that I have been dragging on, realizing the grand unification of mathematics, and then turning to the direction of the grand unification of the four forces in physics."

The whole place was in a commotion again. The previous victory only left the Millennium Conjecture, but which one of "unification of mathematics" and "unification of physics" was not enough to move everyone? This is the ultimate goal of the world of mathematics and physics!

If someone said they wanted to achieve these two goals, they would only elicit laughter, but it was completely different if it was Qin Ke who said this.

While everyone was shocked, they were more curious about when Qin Ke could achieve such a great goal.

As for Qin Ke's inability to do it? Sorry, in everyone's minds at this time, it seems that apart from being unable to have a baby alone, there is nothing that Academician Qin cannot do.

After all, this person is already a well-deserved and recognized "god of scientific research". It is not surprising that one day he will develop "human autologous reproduction technology" and accomplish the only thing that he cannot do at present. thing.

Just as the reporters were asking various questions, someone suddenly let out a surprised sound. Soon the commotion spread, and more and more people lowered their heads and looked at their phones.

Qin Kezheng was a little surprised. A reporter from Xia State raised his hand excitedly and asked: "Academician Qin, the International Council for Science ICS has just issued an announcement on its website, saying that after the proposal of the United Nations and the vote of all ICS directors, it has decided to grant you a unique The honor of being the ‘World’s Chief Scientist’! What do you think of this?”

Qin Ke suddenly understood. No wonder reporters would look down at their phones on such an important occasion. It turned out that such a big event had happened.

The world's chief scientist!

There are many "chief scientists", but this is the first time in history that one dares to officially name it after "The World"!

This is probably the highest honorary title for a scientist in the history of mankind!

Qin Ke was still a little interested in such a major title. He smiled and nodded: "This is my honor!"

……

As the main initiator, main manager, and commander-in-chief of the "Planet Shield" plan, he played a key role in the entire plan like a mainstay and a stabilizing needle. He also stood up during the huge meteorite attack and saved the planet with incredible miraculous means. The world... Qin Ke's deeds did not require deliberate publicity, and they quickly spread throughout the world, arousing countless admiration and praise.

Even the documentary "Academicians of a Great Power, in Their Prime", which was shot based on Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun and was originally announced to be finished and in the editing state, also urgently announced that it would continue filming, adding that the "super giant solar storm" will hit the Qin Dynasty. The heroic story of an academician turning the tide, for which the premiere time will be extended by one year.

In addition to the overwhelming reports from the news media, major Internet Vs, and public accounts, countless honors have also come one after another.

On August 8, the International Council for Science (ICS), the largest and most influential established scientific research academic organization in the world, was the first to take a stand and awarded Academician Xia Guoqin Ke the honorary title of "World Chief Scientist".

On August 8, the United Nations announced that it would award Academician Xia Guoqin Ke the special medal of "Hero for Protecting World Peace".

Other more important awards include the "Xia Guo Hero Scientist" award issued by the Xia Guo Association for Science and Technology, the "Special Contribution Award for Promoting International Scientific Research Cooperation" from the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the "Max Planck Society" award. Ranke Special Physics Medal"...

In addition, there are countless media selection awards such as "The Most Popular Scientist of the Year", "The Greatest Scientist in Human History", and "Genius Scientists Who Influenced the World for a Century".

In September, Xia State also officially awarded Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun the specially designated "National Scientific Research Hero Medal" and the honorary certificate of "Xia State Chief Scientist".

At the beginning of October, the annual Nobel Prize was announced again. The temporary organization "Planet Shield Project Team" won this year's Nobel Peace Prize without any controversy, and Qin Ke will receive the certificate and medal as a representative. ——Although the team has been disbanded at this time, the honor still belongs to all the scientists and engineers who participated in this project.

On the morning of December 12, Qin Ke's 24th birthday, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and the Xia Academy of Sciences jointly issued a notice early in the morning, announcing the official establishment of the "Qin Ke Prize" and the "Ning Qingjun Prize".

These two awards will be selected by a review committee jointly established by the Royal Swedish Scientists and the National Academy of Sciences. Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun themselves will also participate in the selection. All review links will be open and transparent to ensure fairness and justice, and all review materials will be Electronic archiving is carried out with the goal of being “retrospective and traceable for one hundred years.”

Both major awards are divided into four major awards, namely mathematics, physics, chemistry and biology awards. Other awards will be added in the future depending on the situation.

The "Qin Ke Award" and "Ning Qingjun Award" are selected once a year. The prize money is invested by Qingning Technology with US$100 billion as an initial fund, and the value is increased through trust investment and other methods.

The winner of each award will receive a bonus of US$1000 million, and the amount of the bonus will be adjusted for inflation every five years to ensure that its purchasing power is no less than US$1000 million.

Such a generous bonus immediately broke the record of US$300 million for a single "Scientific Breakthrough Award"! It’s enough to make anyone speechless!

The announcement stipulates that the "Qinke Prize" does not limit the gender, age, and nationality of the winners. For each award, only two people with the most outstanding academic and research achievements can receive this honor, which is more than the three places of the Nobel Prize. few.

The "Ning Qingyun Award" has a restriction. It is only awarded to women, and there is only one quota for each award. It not only encourages women to better devote themselves to scientific research, but also ensures its gold content. There is a special rule for the two awards. They will not be awarded to the same winner in the same year. However, if a female winner wins the "Ning Qingyun Award" and achieves better than the original results in subsequent years. If you have great scientific research achievements, you can participate in the selection of the "Qin Ke Award".

The last note in the announcement is: "If there are no candidates who meet the conditions that year, the award will be vacant for that year."

This obviously expresses the determination to rather lack than abuse.

Various regulations show that the selection criteria for the "Qin Ke Prize" and "Ning Qingjun Prize" are more stringent than the Nobel Prize.

The first "Qin Ke Award" will be announced and awarded on December 12 next year, and the first "Ning Qingyun Award" will be announced and awarded on February 24 next year.

The most eye-catching thing is that the previous ten "Qin Ke Prize" and "Ning Qingjun Prize" will be awarded by two academicians in person. Ten years later, the two academicians will not participate in the awarding unless there are special circumstances. .

With the huge prize money, coupled with the fame and status of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun at this time, the announcement of the establishment of these two awards immediately aroused a sensation and strong attention around the world, and their popularity and influence quickly increased to Comparable to the Nobel Prize.

And many people believe that in just a few years, the "Qin Ke Prize" and the "Ning Qingjun Prize" will definitely surpass the Nobel Prize and become the most influential and authoritative science awards in the international scientific community!

Just when the whole world was hotly discussing the big news of the establishment of the "Qin Ke Award" and the "Ning Qingyun Award", in the garden villa of Xia State, Qingmu University, Ning Qingyun was pushing away the bedroom door in a somewhat languid manner. Open the door and walk to the corridor on the second floor.

Today is Saturday, so she got up a little later. It's not because the holidays are too relaxing, but because some bad guy gives her gifts almost every day, and claims that the gifts can beautify skin and maintain youth forever, which makes her a little unbearable and consumes a lot of energy, so she naturally spends more time sleeping. .

She didn't know what kind of skin care gift it was, and she suspected that Qin Ke was just making excuses, but later she found out that it really had obvious effects.

Because she had worked overtime and stayed up late to engage in intense research work for a long time, she had light dark circles under her eyes, and her skin was not as shiny and supple as when she was a girl. But in the past two or three months, she found that her skin had become softer again. Delicate and smooth, even better than when I was eighteen or nineteen years old. Just now when she got up to wash herself, she looked carefully in the mirror and felt doubtful about her eyes.

Is that pretty girl in the mirror, with longing eyes, bright and moving, really herself who is almost 29 years old and has two children?

Especially her skin, which has become more and more porcelain white and supple recently, as smooth and clean as white jade, comparable to that of a young girl in her fifteenth or sixteenth year.

As good friends and students, Gu Yanfei and Ximen Hui had been asking her in surprise yesterday what special skin care products she used. Ning Qingyun didn't know how to answer at all. It was because Qin Ke led her to slow down the pace of her work. Is it brought about by returning to the leisurely and leisurely time of enjoying the beauty of life and work? Or was it really because of some gift the bad guy gave?

Even though she has been married for many years, Ning Qingyun, who is shy at heart, can't help but feel a little shy when she thinks about this.

She walked along the corridor to the stairs and saw Qin Ke at a glance.

Qin Ke is sitting on the carpet in the living room, reading picture book stories to his two children, Ning Yongxi and Qin Junyao, who are over 5 years old.

Thanks to the repair of the planet's magnetic field, this winter is not as cold as last year. There are no snowstorms for days, and there are even sunny smiles from time to time.

At this moment, the warm winter sun poured down softly through the large floor-to-ceiling glass windows, covering Qin Ke and the two children with a layer of warm light.

"Dad, the Edison growth story you read is not interesting. My brother and I want to hear the story of how you and your mother became scientists."

"Want to hear stories about mom and dad?"

The two little darlings nodded repeatedly, and Ning Yongxi shook Qin Ke's arm coquettishly: "Dad, just tell me, the kindergarten teacher has said it, you and your mother are both the greatest scientists in the world. It’s much more powerful than Edison. I want to hear your story of becoming a scientist step by step.”

Qin Ke smiled and kissed the two babies: "Do you also want to be a scientist?"

Ning Yongxi nodded his face with his little finger: "Grandpa Qiu asked us to be great mathematicians, but my brother and I are still considering whether it is better to be scientists or mathematicians. Dad, what was your dream when you were a child? Is it to be a scientist? ?”

"Okay, let me start with my childhood dream." Qin Ke hugged the two little babies and let them sit on his lap, then smiled and told the story: "Actually, when I was young, your dad's dream was also Not too ambitious, I just want to be a god of learning..."

The scene in front of her made Ning Qingyun feel warm and sweet in her heart.

Cherishing and loving her family is one of the things she likes most about Qin Ke.

Ning Qingyun listened softly to Qin Ke's story about the past, and couldn't help but whisper: "The story of becoming a scientist..."

As he spoke, countless beautiful memories of knowing and falling in love with Qin Ke came to mind.

Isn't the story of her becoming a scientist the story of holding each other's hands with Qin Ke and slowly seeing the most beautiful scenery in the scientific research world together?

And the story of the two people will definitely continue to be written, and continue to be as warm and happy as it is now, extending into the distant future.
