Chapter 339: After him, the high-thrust rocket engine looks at China

January 2011, 1, Beijing!

It’s time for the annual National Science and Technology Awards Conference again.

Amid the majestic national anthem, participants entered the venue one after another. With the flow of people, Zhao Mo and Aerospace Director Ruan Min entered the venue together and came to their seats.

At this year's conference, Zhao Mo won another award. The award was for a high-thrust rocket engine, so he walked with Ruan Min.

Also accompanying him is Academician Li Dong, who also wants to win an award. The winning title is the breakthrough of the Long 5 series of rockets.

"Academician Zhao!"

"Hello, Academician Zhao, hello~"

"Hello, Academician Zhao~"

"Congratulations to Academician Zhao~"

……

When entering the venue, almost everyone present took the initiative to say hello to Zhao Mo. The older generation nodded, and the younger generation, even those who were older than Zhao Mo, stood up one after another.

"Hello, hello~"

Zhao Mo responded to everyone with a smile and was at ease.

He could feel that the attention he received this time was different from previous awards conferences.

It has accumulated over time, but more importantly, it is the influence of the titles on my head. One title is the Fields Medal, and the other is the academician of the two academies. The aura is extremely dazzling.

young?

That's nothing!

"Sometimes a title is not just a title, but the meaning behind the title, which represents the industry's recognition of your strength~"

Zhao Mo sighed, and then looked at the podium with a smile, waiting for the start of the awards ceremony.

Soon, with the entrance of the cabinet, the conference finally kicked off.

After the speech, the award ceremony began.

As awards were awarded one after another, bursts of warm applause erupted in the Great Hall of the People, and the atmosphere was solemn, warm and festive.

After a while, it was Zhao Mo's turn to win the award.

"...The winner of the special prize of the Science and Technology Progress Award this time is a high-thrust rocket engine, and the winner is Zhao Mo!"

The loud voice sounded, and the scene once again burst into warm applause. It was like thunder, and the entire auditorium even shook. Everyone was congratulating Zhao Mo for winning this award.

Award citation: "He independently developed a one-thousand-ton high-thrust rocket engine with completely independent intellectual property rights";

"He created a new history of our country's rocket engines";

"Before him, high-thrust rocket engines looked to foreign countries; after him, high-thrust rocket engines looked to China"!

Zhao Mo stood up, with a faint smile on his face, and walked steadily onto the podium, calmly and calmly.

"Congratulations, Academician Zhao!"

"Thank you!"

Zhao Mo took the medal and trophy with both hands, then held the old man's hand tightly together, and turned to face the audience.

clap clap clap...

Countless flashes recorded this grand moment and spread it outside, to thousands of households, and spread across four continents and five oceans.

The Technological Progress Award comes with bonuses, the first prize is 300,000, the second prize is 150,000, but for the special prize, the bonus soars to 1 million!

This time, what Zhao Mo got was one million. It was a personal award, without having to pay taxes, and exempted by the state.

Zhao Mo remembered that the bonus for the special prize was later increased to 1.5 million.

Of course, whether it is one million or one and a half million, it is of course a huge bonus for ordinary people. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fortune overnight, but for Zhao Mo, especially for a high-thrust rocket engine The bonuses for this achievement are too small and completely unmatched.

If you put it abroad, if you have technology patents, hundreds of millions of dollars will be wasted.

However, this is an honor for the country and the nation. How can it be measured in money?

If we really want to use money to measure it and only go for money, then Zhao Mo will not choose this path at all!

Just like a soldier, do you rely on bonuses to fight a war?

Is life precious, should it be purchased with tens of thousands, millions, or tens of millions?

Except for those who are driven to a dead end, I believe no one will fight for the money. It is not worth it to exchange their own lives.

But for the sake of the country, the nation, and future generations, thousands of people stood up and fought without money, regardless of life and death!

Zhao Mo believes that one million now and 1.5 million in the future are enough, enough.

Think about Mr. Deng who died of illness while trying to make the atomic bomb. After the atomic bomb was successfully developed, he only had a bonus of ten yuan!

Now there are one million, what can I say?

At the finale, the highest science and technology award was awarded to two people. One was a metal materials expert and the other was a cardiovascular medical expert. Each person received a bonus of 5 million.

This number later increased to eight million.

Similarly, whether it is five million or eight million, it cannot truly measure the importance of the winning scientists, it is just an honor given by the country.

As far as Zhao Mo knows, many scientists basically donate it after receiving five million or eight million, either to charity or for education or research awards.

"I also donated the one million?"

An idea came up, but was quickly rejected by Zhao Mo. The purpose of donating it was not as good as using it for his own research, or to provide research incentives for the six students under him. In the evening, the country arranged a dinner to entertain the award-winning scientists and team members.

Not surprisingly, Zhao Mo became one of the focuses. Many people came to drink with him, and many wanted to see him drunk. But unfortunately, they were destined to be disappointed. Zhao Mo's strong physical fitness made him not afraid of drinking at all.

……

The popularity of the National Science and Technology Awards Conference has never been high. Even with the full publicity of the official media, it is still far less popular than foreign awards.

There are common reasons, and there are also reasons why the moon is brighter abroad...

But this year's popularity is much higher than in previous years, because Zhao Mo, a "top player", won the award again!

Some good media even made special statistics and published a report detailing which awards Zhao Mo had won. They said that except for the highest science and technology award for lifetime achievement, Academician Zhao had won all the other awards. He was about to win all the awards. He won a Grand Slam, and he said that depending on Academician Zhao’s attitude, he might win a prize every year.

Then, the majority of netizens loved it and created some memes, which were widely circulated on the Internet.

"Zhao Shen: Get the National Science and Technology Award? Isn't it enough if you have the skills?"

"Zhao Shen: There are too many, too many, I can't take them~"

"You: How can I win the National Science and Technology Award? Zhao Shen: Watch it, I will only demonstrate it once, and the award will come!"

……

The top publicizes the top, and the bottom looks at the bottom, so that no one pays attention to the two old academicians who won the country's highest science and technology award.

"Yes, except for the top prize~"

Zhao Mo saw the congratulations from many netizens on Weibo and the congratulations from his six students. Naturally, he also saw the comments from netizens about "one short of a grand slam award."

This is indeed the case.

As for what netizens said about "waiting for God Zhao to win the top prize" and "let's guess when God Zhao will win the top prize", Zhao Mo laughed it off.

It’s not easy to win the top prize. There are too many seniors who have made great contributions and are still waiting in line. At least in the next ten years, he won’t get his turn.

Even if he makes greater scientific achievements within ten years, even if the country takes special care, he will not take it, he will refuse it himself!

When he returned home in the evening, Yang Chanxiao asked about it, and Zhao Mo answered truthfully what he thought.

Yang Chan expressed her support, and then said with emotion: "I didn't expect that in two or three years, my husband would become an academician of the two academies, and the National Science and Technology Award would be a grand slam. Just thinking about it is like a dream."

Zhao Mo smiled and stroked her hair: "It's not a dream, it's real."

Yang Chan said "hmm" and snuggled into his arms.

Zhao Mo thought for a while and then expressed his thoughts: "I plan not to participate in the selection of the National Science and Technology Award starting next year."

"what?"

Yang Chan was startled and subconsciously looked up into his eyes.

But the next moment, she reacted, pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Hehe, I didn't expect that my husband's ideological level has reached such a high level. It seems that I, the wife, have to work harder."

Zhao Mo laughed and said: "You have to work hard, I'm still waiting for your artificial intelligence to come out~"

Yang Chan rolled her eyes at him and said: "You are so smart, you still need artificial intelligence? No matter how powerful artificial intelligence is, I think it is meaningless to you."

Zhao Mo couldn't help laughing and said: "I thought you were complimenting me. Although artificial intelligence cannot match us in intelligence, it can indeed free our hands, freeing us from tedious and specific matters, so that we can concentrate on research. .At this point, I still desperately need it.”

Yang Chan smiled and said, "What you said makes me Alexander~"

"He who can do it should work harder~"

Zhao Mo looked at her seriously and said.

"Snapped!"

Yang Chan patted him, turned over and fell asleep: "Sleep!"

Have a good night's sleep~

The next day, it didn’t snow and the weather was sunny~

Under the leadership of CCTV personnel, Zhao Mo came to a recording room that had been arranged for a long time. There was a sign with three spiritual words "Let's talk" and participated in the recording of this "Let's talk" program.

Xiao Sa has been waiting for a long time.

There is also a packed live audience waiting in the recording studio. Some of these people are CCTV personnel, some are students from Wudaokou, and some are students from other universities in Beijing. They all took the initiative to sign up to be viewers after knowing that Zhao Mo would participate in the recording of the first episode of the program. They are the group that successfully registered after screening. people.

"Welcome, Academician Zhao~"

As the host, Xiao Sa came up to him from a distance, bowed slightly and shook hands with Zhao Mo.

Zhao Mo smiled and said: "Hello, host~"

Xiao Sa quickly said: "Academician Zhao, just call me Xiao Sa~"

"Okay, Xiaosa~"

Zhao Mo was kind and polite, and then greeted other staff on site and the audience in the audience, without the slightest air of condescension of academicians from the two academies.

On the other hand, the staff and the audience were all flattered.

Soon, the recording started~

As Xiao Sa was the first to appear on the stage, he made an introduction, and then a long narration introduced Zhao Mo's glorious deeds. Amidst the grand soundtrack, Xiao Sa said loudly: "Let us welcome Academician Zhao~"
