Chapter 262 We Want to Become a New Academic Exchange Center
Last time, at an international academic exchange conference held in Jijing, Xu You was the undisputed protagonist.
They were all interested in Xu You's high-temperature superconductivity mechanism and wanted to come to China in person to communicate with Xu You.
This academic exchange conference has a lot to do with the new initiative previously launched by the Chinese academic community.
China wants to develop its influence in the world academic community, and it is not just talk.
"This academic exchange conference in Jijing is larger than the last one. We have invited many top scientists from countries including the Soviet Union, the White Soviet Union, the Indian Empire, and Germany. If this academic exchange conference goes smoothly, it will greatly promote the development of China's academic community."
These foreign scientists who are willing to come to China to participate in academic exchange conferences are all very interested in Chinese academics.
Some of them may very likely consider submitting papers to Chinese academic journals in the future.
Moreover, being able to conduct academic exchanges with these top foreign scientists is a mutually beneficial and win-win situation for everyone.
However, Xu You discovered that no American scientists were invited to this student exchange meeting.
Even scientists from Western countries are rarely invited.
There are only a few such as Schulz from Germany.
Xu You thought about it and roughly understood the reason.
Western countries like the United States rarely submit papers to Chinese academic journals.
In addition to Schultz from Germany, there are other scientists who have had academic exchanges with Xu You before.
In addition, more importantly.
The academic sanctions imposed by Western academic journals on Su and Baisu have made the relationship between them even more severe.
Many scientists from the Soviet Union and the White Soviet Union were invited to this conference.
I believe that if scientists from Western countries such as the United States and Great Britain were invited, the atmosphere of the entire academic exchange conference would be very awkward.
When the meeting was about to start, Xu You and Qiao Sen came to the meeting venue together.
In addition to Xu You, top domestic scientific researchers including Xing Shuping and Han Shubin also attended the conference.
It can be seen that the level of this meeting is really extraordinary.
As the new Nobel Prize winner in Physics, Xu You is still the focus of this conference and the chief representative of Chinese researchers, without a doubt.
At the meeting, Meng Peng, the head of the Huaxia International Academic Exchange Association, came to the stage as the organizer of the meeting.
Meng Peng first criticized and analyzed the academic sanctions imposed on the Soviet Union and the White Union by multiple Western journals.
Meng Peng believes that such things are tantamount to using academia as a tool of power.
If even academics cannot be treated fairly, the world's scientific development will fall into darkness.
Even though this is only aimed at the Soviet Union and the White Soviet Union now, there is no certainty that one day these so-called sanctions will spread to other countries.
To this end, we should establish a more fair, just and open academic exchange platform and not allow other factors to affect the development of world science.
Most scientists from various countries present expressed their agreement with Meng Peng's point of view.
Indeed, if even the academic discourse power can be manipulated at will, it will undoubtedly lead to a regression in the development of world academics.
After Meng Peng finished his speech, representatives from various countries, including Xu You, took the stage to speak and express their views.
This conference did not involve too much academic knowledge, but mainly focused on the general direction of academic exchanges.
With Xu You, a young Nobel Prize winner in physics, everyone is very optimistic about the development of China's academic community and is willing to contribute more articles to Chinese academic journals.
In addition, regarding the issue of student exchanges between countries, all countries hope that academic exchanges between everyone can be more frequent and more in-depth.
To put it bluntly, it means that we can exchange more academic achievements and promote the academic development of both sides.
After this meeting, scientists from various countries will not leave immediately, but will continue to stay in China for further academic exchanges.
This time, China was very generous and provided free food and accommodation to the scientists who came to China, and reimbursed their round-trip air tickets.
Of course, such efforts are totally worthwhile.
After all, each of these scientists has a very prominent background and can be considered world-class in their respective fields.
After this, there will be many large and small meetings between scientists from various countries to exchange ideas in their professional fields.
In the afternoon, the Academic Exchange Center arranged for Xu You, Xing Shuping, Qiao Sen and others to have an in-depth academic exchange with Schulz and other materials experts from Germany.
This time, both sides got what they wanted.
Because in the preparation of 150K high-temperature superconducting materials, they use different preparation methods.
Previously, thanks to the efforts of these materials experts in China, there have been some breakthroughs in another preparation method, but this technology has not yet been fully mastered.
It just so happened that Schultz was also very interested in China's 150K high-temperature superconducting material preparation technology.
Both sides expressed their sincere anticipation for this academic exchange.
In the afternoon, the two sides met in a small reception room.
After the two sides met, they greeted each other warmly.
Especially between Schultz and Xu You.
Schultz was very interested in this young Chinese Nobel Prize winner in physics.
Xu You also wanted to learn more cutting-edge knowledge in materials science from Schultz.
"Hello, Mr. Xu You! It's nice to meet you! I read your great article on the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity in a journal before. Unfortunately, due to my limited knowledge, I still cannot understand most of the content."
"Thank you, Mr. Schultz. We all have great respect for your achievements in materials science, and we sincerely hope that we can have a more in-depth exchange with each other."
According to the original plan, the communication between the two parties will be handled by a translator who will be responsible for translating the languages of both parties.
However, this method of translation will undoubtedly waste a lot of valuable time and affect the efficiency of academic exchanges.
Because everyone's English level was very good, it was finally decided that both parties would communicate directly in English.
Objectively speaking, English is indeed the most widely used language in the world today.
Even in two countries where English is not the native language, English is often the most convenient way to communicate with each other.
