Volume 2 Academic Career Chapter 786: Powerful Lineup
Tuesday, May 26, 2020.
This is a day that has a significant impact on China and even the academic community around the world.
Because today is the day when the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences is put into use.
Starting today, the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences was officially established in the physical sense and the institute was officially put into use.
At around 8 o'clock in the morning, quite a few people had gathered at the delivery ceremony .
Under the arrangement of Chen Haining, invited guests such as Deligne arrived at the scene one after another.
This was their first time coming to the research institute. They had only heard Chen Zhou’s description before, but when they really came here, they found that what Chen Zhou said didn’t seem to be exaggerated.
Even in China, there is a place to build such a quiet place where one can fully devote himself to research.
At this moment, they felt more at ease with their decision.
In addition to these invited guests from the academic community, many people from all walks of life in China, including leaders of the science and technology department represented by Li Zhenbang, were also invited to the scene.
In addition, media reporters from various countries have been waiting here for a long time.
The institute is decorated with lights and looks very festive.
When Chen Zhou appeared at the scene, there was still half an hour left before the delivery ceremony began.
Before the delivery ceremony began, Chen Zhou did not say anything more to Deligne and others, but together with Chen Haining, he once again confirmed that all preparations were complete.
This was the first , and it had taken such a long time to plan, so there could not be any mistakes.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the delivery ceremony officially began.
According to the established process, in the second session, Chen Zhou needs to go on stage to deliver a speech.
As always, Chen Zhou chose to speak without a script.
“Ladies and gentlemen, friends from all walks of life, welcome to the delivery ceremony of the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences. I would like to express my gratitude and extend my warm welcome.”
" Before I started to set up the research institute, someone asked me why I wanted to set up a research institute. I already worked at the Institute of High Energy Physics and Yan University, and these two places could fully meet the research conditions I needed."
"My answer is that I want to bring a different research institute to China as the current Chinese academic community is undergoing changes!"
"This research institute is willing to provide research opportunities to all capable researchers and is willing to become the driving force for continuous change in China's academic community!"
"This research institute will continue to explore courageously in all research fields and constantly climb to the peak of scientific research, so that the world will remember not just me, Chen Zhou, but the entire Chinese academic community!"
"Now, my answer is still the same. I hope to change the Chinese academic community so that it is no longer so limited and can achieve great achievements that are worthy of praise!"
"Of course, I also hope and will work hard to change the entire academic community while changing the Chinese academic community! I also promise to the entire academic community here that the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Natural Sciences welcomes all researchers to join us!"
"On behalf of our academic committee, I also promise all researchers that as long as you have the ability and are trustworthy, we will provide you with all the research conditions you wish for!"
After Chen Zhou finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the audience, and then burst into warm applause.
Especially Li Zhenbang, who was watching the ceremony from the audience, his mood at the moment was a bit complicated.
He had known about Chen Zhou's vision for a long time. Now, seeing Chen Zhou grow into a mathematical leader and have a pivotal position in the physics community, he felt that this young man was really going to change the world.
That’s right, it’s not about changing the Chinese academic community as Chen Zhou said, nor is it about changing the entire academic community, but about changing the entire world.
Li Zhenbang didn't know why he had such an idea , but when he looked at the young man in front of him, this idea came to his mind.
As for those people from the academic community who were invited, they couldn't help but be moved when they saw Chen Zhou's determined eyes.
It may be a long way to go to talk about changing the academic world, but what Chen Zhou promised is something that is right in front of us.
Others may not know it yet, but they know it clearly, especially people like Deligne.
Because the conditions that Chen Zhou offered them to join the institute far exceeded those of any other research institution in the world.
Aren’t these basic things the prerequisites for changing the academic world?
At the same time, the media in the audience were also frantically pressing the shutter buttons, and they had even thought of the headlines for tomorrow's reports.
However, what they didn’t expect was that what Chen Zhou said at the delivery ceremony was actually nothing.
At the beginning of the delivery ceremony, the news announced on the official website of Yenching Institute of Theoretical Sciences was truly shocking.
According to Chen Zhou's arrangement, the official website began to release announcements after the delivery ceremony officially began.
Not one announcement, but dozens.
The content of the announcement was the official announcement of the joining of Deligne and others.
Dozens of official announcements, all about the joining of academic bigwigs, instantly set off a sensation in the academic community and caused the institute's official website to temporarily collapse.
Because Chen Zhou had already arranged for Chen Haining to be prepared, the rescue speed of the official website maintenance personnel was obviously much faster than the preprint website that was crashed by Chen Zhou.
But even so, the staff who had been paying attention to the number of visits could not help but be a little surprised and amazed at the rapidly increasing number of visits, as if people from all over the world were flocking to their official website at this moment.
As the official announcement spread, discussions on major Internet platforms began to grow exponentially.
"The ultimate move! This is the ultimate move! This official announcement will kill all research institutions in an instant!"
"I can't believe my eyes. These names are so dazzling that they blind my titanium alloy dog eyes!"
"Didn't they say that today is the handover ceremony for Academician Chen's research institute? Why did the internet suddenly explode?"
"Hurry up and go to the official website of the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Natural Sciences! There's a nuclear explosion there! A nuclear explosion in the academic world!"
"Oh my god! I just want to ask, did this poach half of the top names in the academic world?"
"No one can resist the charm of Academician Chen! I sincerely apologize to Academician Chen for my doubts about the Yenching Institute of Theoretical Natural Sciences! I'm sorry!"
"After all, our vision is too narrow. Little did we know that Academician Chen's arrangements for both Academic Yenching and the establishment of research institutions were already well in the air!"
"I have a bold idea. Yenching should not only become the world's mathematics center, but also the world's academic center!"
"You can be bolder upstairs and give full play to your imagination. There is nothing Academician Chen cannot do, as long as you can think of it!"
These discussions and official announcements were also promptly fed back to the personnel at the delivery ceremony by the heads of major media outlets.
Those people who were originally excited about receiving big news were now looking at the messages sent on their phones in confusion.
What's the meaning?
Aren’t these academic bigwigs who were sitting and watching the delivery ceremony here to show their support out of friendship?
Are they all here to attend the delivery ceremony of their own research institute?
But this lineup is too strong, isn’t it?
