Science on the Rise: Starting with Cell Editors

　　"It goes without saying that it must be Lu Li."

　　"Yes, who doesn't know Lu Li now?"

　　The host also smiled and said, "That's right, it's Lu Li. Here's one of our freshmen representatives, Lu Li."

　　Hearing this, Senior Wang, who was in charge of the show, said quickly, "Lu Li, it's your turn to come on stage."

　　Lu Li nodded, stepped onto the stage in a hurry, walked over to the host, and took the microphone.

　　"Hello everyone, I'm Lu Li. When I knew that I was going to give a speech at the freshman party as a representative of the freshmen, I began to think about what I should say, whether to give chicken soup, or to talk about my imagination for the future, or to talk about In my learning experience, I thought about many topics, but I was not satisfied. Finally, I suddenly remembered something I encountered when recruiting CEOs for the company, and the experiences of Professor Xu Zhongchen, Professor Tian Zhixing, and Academician Wu Hongyan. Suddenly I feel that some words are unpleasant."

Chapter 51 The struggle of generations

　　Hearing Lu Li's words, all the classmates present felt a strong curiosity in their hearts, what is it that makes Lu Li unhappy?

　　The reporters are more curious, and they also have a faint sense that there may be breaking news.

　　At this time, Lu Li sighed: "Everyone knows, I founded a company, but I have no interest in managing a company, it is too troublesome and boring, in contrast, I prefer to study and research, so I want to Looking for a professional manager for the company, and then, I received 23 resumes, all of which are very good high-end talents."

　　"However, after reading these resumes, I was surprised to find that one-third of these high-end talents have already joined foreign nationality. If it is only an isolated phenomenon, I will not have any emotions. However, one-third Ah, that means, it's already a common phenomenon!"

　　"I'm very disappointed! Why are there so many high-end talents who were born in Sri Lanka, grew up in Sri Lanka, became elites, and emigrated overseas after earning enough money? Dragon Kingdom to make money!"

　　"I think of the experiences of Academician Wu Hongyan, Professor Tian Zhixing, and Professor Xu Zhongchen! They all went to the West to study abroad, because when they were young, the technology of the motherland was still relatively backward, and if they wanted to learn advanced knowledge, they had to go abroad. !"

　　"When they first arrived, their foundation was very poor, and they couldn't even understand some professional English words. They were often discriminated against and ridiculed by Westerners because, in the eyes of Westerners of that era, our country was ignorant and backward. synonym."

　　"They are angry, they are unwilling, they turn their anger and unwillingness into motivation, and spend all their time studying. In the end, they use their grades to tell those Westerners that we Longguo people are the best."

　　"Then, they graduated. Because of their achievements, Westerners extended an olive branch to them, but they did not hesitate to reject the Western world of flowers and flowers and returned to their poor and white motherland."

　　"Then, the land that gave birth to us and raised us flourished, and in just a few decades, we can build high-speed rail, build large planes, build advanced machine tools, and create advanced medicines! We are in some high-tech industries. In the research and development of scientific and technological equipment, it has already led the world!"

　　"Is all this easy? No! It's not easy at all! In these decades, we have been facing the technological blockade of the West. Whether it is technology or theory, we have to rely on our own exploration! Because the West wants us to We can always be at the lowest end of the industry chain, I hope we can only make clothes, and we have been in the misery of being poor and white.”

　　"But we finally broke through the blockade. The products we made have been sold all over the world, and we have been at the forefront of the world in many fields of technology! Why can we do it? Just like Academician Wu Hongyan and Professor Tian Zhixing The sacrifices of the pioneers!"

　　The audience fell silent, and everyone's expressions were a little solemn.

　　Lu Li took a deep breath and continued:

　　"Before the generation of Academician Wu Hongyan and Professor Tian Zhixing, many pioneers were already struggling! Everyone knows about nuclear bombs, right? The West has developed nuclear bombs, which shocked the world. Our country knows that only with nuclear bombs, we can Only in order to become an influential power can we have sufficient confidence. Therefore, we began to study. Then, we are also faced with technological blockade! How can others teach you this kind of technology? So, everything depends on your own exploration. !"

　　"However, that was in the 60s. At that time, our country was almost a poor country. In order to calculate data, many scientists could only use abacus. In a research institute, hundreds of thousands of people used abacus together, eating steamed buns with one hand and dialing with the other. Counting beads, crackling, day and night, for several years, can you imagine such a scene?"

　　"It is because of these pioneers that we have our country's first nuclear bomb, and it is because of the nuclear bomb that we have such an international status!"

　　"And in earlier times, were there pioneers struggling? Yes! From the Opium War, we can see the shadow of the pioneers' struggle! Those pioneers learned the eight-legged text and only said 'whatever', but they They were awakened by the sound of foreigners' guns, they were awakened by foreign guns and cannons, and for the first time they knew the power of science! So, they started their own way of saving the country and the people!"

　　"However, they don't know science at all, they don't know physics, they don't know chemistry, they don't know biology, they don't even have a basic foundation, but they didn't back down. They tried their best to study abroad. It was the darkest and most backward era in the history of our country. , Westerners even commented that we were low in intelligence, and the discrimination and humiliation they suffered can be imagined, but in order to bring back some knowledge, they endured humiliation, and it was these pioneers who laid the scientific foundation for our country.”

　　"So, everything we have now, we have become the second most powerful country in the world, are not for nothing, it is the result of the struggle of generations of pioneers!"

　　"However, have you ever thought about why the pioneers struggled? They spent their whole lives working hard, hoping that the younger generation could stand in the center of the world and raise their heads proudly! They certainly don't want to see that the motherland is constantly getting stronger, The younger generation insists on licking those countries that are dying! They definitely don’t want to see that the younger generation humbly thinks that everything is fine abroad, as if even the air abroad is fragrant!”

　　"..."

　　The whole place is still silent!

　　No one speaks!

　　But everyone felt the throbbing of their hearts!

　　Yes, in the backward era, in the era of poverty and whiteness, the older generation was able to be proud of the motherland, and was willing to spend their whole life and youth to work hard.

　　But nowadays, the country is rich and the people are strong, but there are so many people who insist on licking those declining countries.

　　If those pioneers saw this scene, I am afraid there is only a sigh!

　　"This kid really dares to say it!" The principal sighed in his heart. He always thought that Lu Li was a gentle and elegant person, but now he found that Lu Li also has a warm-blooded side, and he is very courageous, so he is not afraid of causing criticism at all, but he must It must be admitted that Lu Li's words went to the heart of his heart. He is also a person who has returned from studying abroad. He is also dissatisfied with the current situation, but due to the pressure of reality, he dare not say it out loud.

　　"Well said!" Professor Tian couldn't help recalling the past scenes, tears streaming down his face.

　　"This part, I must broadcast it!" The reporters couldn't help but feel mixed feelings.

　　Lu Li's speech continued, impassioned, and everyone listened and thought silently.

Chapter 52 Our Generation!

　　At this time, on the campus of Qing University, many people rushed towards the football field.

　　They are all old students of Qing University and are not interested in the freshman party. Even if they guessed that Lu Li might give a speech as a freshman representative, they are not interested. In their opinion, Lu Li's academic level is good, but the speech is not necessarily interesting. , is likely to be very boring.

　　However, as a video of Lu Li's speech shot by the freshmen spread in the school's circle of friends, they were immediately shocked by the content of the speech and rushed to the football field.

　　This also made more and more people on the football field, but everyone listened silently, without speaking, without discussing, they did not want to disturb this shocking speech.

　　Lu Li was also immersed in his speech, narrating his thoughts. He knew that this speech would not bring him much benefit, but would make him hated by some people, but he didn't care, he just wanted to put what was in his heart. The idea is not for myself, but for the pioneers of the generation, for people like Director Wu, Professor Tian, ​​and Professor Xu.

　　"..."

　　"I want to say that our generation should be a little more confident. Don't feel that the moon abroad is more round, and don't feel that the air abroad is more fragrant. That's a shame! Our generation should raise our heads proudly and become the world. Leading the world! Don't think this is impossible! We are only 18 years old. The pioneers have built the poor and white motherland into the second strongest country in the world in decades. This is to turn the impossible into reality. Pioneers can, and so can we!"

　　"Finally, I want to say that I'm not just talking or practicing, please remember what I said next. In the next few years, even decades, I will represent the motherland and lead the world's high-end biotechnology !"

　　"Okay, that's it for my speech."

　　After speaking, Lu Li bowed slightly towards the black students below.

　　"it is good!"

　　Professor Tian stood up and applauded vigorously.

　　At the same moment, everyone present stood up and applauded.

　　This speech really shocked them. Even after the speech was over, Lu Li's voice still echoed in their ears. They seemed to see that more than a hundred years ago, those pioneers who still had braids, far Crossing the ocean, coming to the other side of the ocean, enduring the discrimination of Westerners, in order to learn a physical formula, learn a chemical formula.

　　They seemed to see that in an old research institute, hundreds of people turned the abacus together to calculate the relevant data of the nuclear fission reaction.

　　They seemed to see the foreign students wearing old-fashioned Chinese tunic suits, rejecting the salary of thousands of dollars abroad, rejecting the car and villa, and returning to the motherland, only taking a salary of tens of yuan, riding a bicycle, and living in a tube building.

　　Today, we are seeing an era of prosperity and technology.

　　And that generation of pioneers, some are no longer there, some are already old, and now, it is their generation's turn to appear!

　　"Our generation will surely inherit the ideals of the pioneers! Our generation will surely become the leader of the world!"

　　Many young students shouted in their hearts.

　　At the same time, they were also shocked by Lu Li's confidence.

　　"Please remember my next words. In the next few years, even decades, I will represent the motherland and lead the world's high-end biotechnology!"

　　How confident are you to say such arrogant and arrogant words!

　　If someone else said that, they would just laugh.

　　But Lu Li was different.

　　In their opinion, Lu Li might really be able to do it!

　　They...wait and see!

　　At this time, Lu Li had already handed the microphone back to the host and walked backstage. After arriving backstage, he could still hear the deafening applause.

　　"Lu Li, well said!"

　　Senior Wang looked at Lu Li and gave a thumbs up.

　　The other students who were preparing in the background also gave thumbs up.

　　If they were convinced by Lu Li's academic knowledge before, now they are convinced by Lu Li's speech.

　　Lu Li also smiled and nodded to everyone before heading to the laboratory.

　　It was still early, and he was going to write a paper on parasitic chloroplasts for the journal Cell.

　　Since it has been publicly stated that it will lead the world's high-end biotechnology, of course, it must be based on facts.

　　At this time, the reporter has uploaded the video just recorded to the Internet.

　　Lu Li was originally the focus of the public's attention, and this speech was so shocking, so the Internet quickly boiled over, and relevant news immediately rushed to the meager hot search.

　　#Lu LiShocking Speech, Our Generation! #

　　#LuLi: Please remember what I said next, the high-end biotechnology in this world will be led by me! #

　　Below these topics, a large number of netizens comment every minute.

　　"Support Lu Li's point of view, our generation should raise our heads proudly, become the world's leader, lead the world!"

　　"Lu Li is not bragging, he is already leading the world, we should do our best."

　　"Big boss Lu Li is bullshit!"

　　"I used to think that Lu Li was a scholar who could only read, but now I know that Lu Li is also a hot-blooded man."

　　"Lu Li's speech has offended many people, and they are all elites. However, I support Lu Li and will always support it!"

　　"Although I am familiar with modern history, I am still very shocked after listening to Lu Li's speech. How many hardships, especially the one over [-] years ago, have made us It completely fell into the abyss, but we persevered in the end, because there are generations of pioneers who are struggling, and we can't live up to them!"

　　Experimental class WeChat group.

　　The friends also chatted.

　　"Let me share a video with you. This is Lu Xueshen's speech at the Freshman Gala of Qingda University. Men will be silent when they watch it, and women will cry when they watch it."

　　"I was there too. Lu Li's speech went to the hearts of many people. The applause lasted for more than three minutes."

　　"Seeing my blood boil, our generation should be like what Lu Li said."

　　"@Lu Li, just because of your speech, I will treat you to the next dinner."

　　"@Lu Li, why are you diving again, are you holding back some big moves?"

　　at the same time.

　　In reality, many people are also very emotional, and the blood is rolling in.

　　"This kid uses me as an example. How embarrassed it makes me. There are countless people like me in the Chinese Academy of Sciences and across the country." Academician Wu Hongyan smiled happily after watching the video forwarded to him by Professor Tian. up.

　　"Lu Li should be going to the laboratory, right? I'll go find him now and have a drink together." Professor Xu was also invited to attend this freshman party. At this time, he was in a very happy mood and wanted to have a drink with Lu Li. .

　　"I'll go too." Professor Tian sat next to Professor Xu, and when he heard Professor Xu's words, he said he wanted to go together.
