The rejuvenation of a great nation: from educated youth to national treasure scientist

Chapter 126: 22 academicians, the most in the country
After Wang Haoran finished his speech, there was warm applause from the audience.

All the faculty members were applauding, with smiles on their faces.

Because the academicians were re-elected after 20 years, some of the original members have passed away, and most of them have reached old age.

The vast majority of scientists of the older generation are time-tested, and are the most upright and have the deepest sense of patriotism.

They are naturally very pleased that scientific talents like Wang Haoran can emerge in the country.

Most of them have a very good impression of Wang Haoran.

They felt that Comrade Wang Haoran had a very good character. He was very respectful to old comrades and very caring towards all his partners.

Who can not like such a young man?

After Wang Haoran finished speaking, he bowed and left.

Fang Yi, the president of Longguo Academy of Sciences, took the microphone with a smile. He blew into the microphone and said, "Dear teachers, Haoran is a young genius who has emerged in our country's scientific community in the past two years. He is very smart and has a strong ability to learn on his own."

"Although he is very young, his scientific contributions are quite great!"

"We invited him here today to say a few words to you all, mainly to get you familiar with him."

"At the same time, I hope everyone can support this young man more in his future work!"

"We old guys are all getting old. If we can help young people create more scientific miracles and make more contributions to the country, it will make our life trajectory more perfect, right?"

After Fang Yi finished speaking, Hua Luogeng, as the vice president, once again emphasized the main principles for scoring the election of academician members, and hoped that all judges would be able to score each candidate rigorously, fairly, strictly and reasonably.

After he finished speaking, the judges began to perform their scoring duties.

Each candidate's achievements and resume were printed on a piece of paper, and the 210 candidates formed a thick booklet.

Each judge has such a booklet on hand.

They can score candidates based on their results and resume and so on.

Wang Haoran did not leave when the judges were giving their scores.

He wants to stay and see what the final result will be.

The scoring process lasted a little over an hour.

Because the judges have already had an in-depth understanding of the candidates' information, they can generally score relatively quickly.

Of course, there are times when it is quite difficult, mainly because the results of several candidates seem to be of similar importance, which requires a difficult choice.

In general, Wang Haoran's speech played a significant role.

The judges had a relatively deep impression of anyone mentioned by Wang Haoran.

Once the judges have finished scoring, the results will be announced and the scores will be added up.

All judges' scores for a candidate are added together to give an overall score.

Then all the candidates will be ranked according to their scores.

This process also requires rigorous and serious work, so the pace is not too fast.

It was not until nearly two o'clock in the afternoon that all the work was completed.

Of the 210 candidates, the last fifth failed to be elected as academicians, and a total of 168 new academicians were finally elected.

Of course, this is not the end yet.

The 168 newly appointed academicians must be reported to higher authorities for approval.

After approval, it must be made public.

After the public announcement period, certificates can be issued to these new academicians.

These people are considered to have reached the top of the domestic scientific community in Dragon Country.

In the future, they will receive more scientific research resources, and they will become academic giants in the true sense. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are going to establish their own schools.

Wang Haoran saw with his own eyes the final list of new faculty members.

Xiao Renming, Qian Dake and others were all on the list.

In addition, Fan Kaiyong, Lin Wanjun from Peking University, Feng Yunshang, Li Qinghe and others from Tsinghua University were all elected!
In addition, Ge Qiangjun, a firearms expert at Beijing Institute of Technology, and Sun Shitong, director of the Firearms Institute, have all become members of the academic department.

Beijing Institute of Technology can be said to be the big winner in this selection.

They put forward nearly 30 candidates in total.

A total of 22 people were successfully elected as academicians!
This election ratio is really too high.

The performance of Peking University and Tsinghua University this time was actually quite eye-catching.

A total of eight professors from Tsinghua University were newly elected as academicians.

A total of 11 professors from Peking University were newly elected as academicians.

But compared with Beijing Institute of Technology, they are far behind.

As top-notch universities, Peking University and Tsinghua University would feel a little ashamed.

……

Scientific research institutions across the country are paying close attention to this academician election conference.

Peking University President Yang Dezhong was a little absent-minded that morning.

Although he was sitting in his office, his mind had already flown to the conference hall where the Academy of Sciences was selecting academicians.

Yang Dezhong spent the entire morning waiting for the final news.

He also had spies in the Academy of Sciences.

As soon as the results come out, someone will call him and tell him.

Just like that, we waited and waited until around one o'clock in the afternoon, when the first news came: the first academician should have just been announced, and that was Professor Xiao Renming of the Department of Radio Electronics at Peking University!

Yang Dezhong quickly sent someone to inform Xiao Renming.

Xiao Renming is still busy in the laboratory now.

Yang Dezhong's secretary Chen Kaixuan found the laboratory and told Xiao Renming the good news.

The entire laboratory was immediately filled with cheers celebrating Xiao Renming's election as a member of the academic department.

These are all Xiao Renming's students.

Xiao Renming was also very happy.

"Teacher Xiao, Comrade Haoran was invited to give a speech before the selection conference began. In his speech, he mentioned many times the great contribution you made when cooperating with him on the project. The principal believes that this is one of the main reasons why you stand out." Chen Kaixuan said with a smile.

Xiao Renming nodded and said, "Haoran has helped me a lot in my scientific research. I am very grateful to him."

Xiao Renming now has mixed emotions.

He knew that his good son-in-law played a huge role in his victory in the selection of academic committee members this year.

By 1:57 p.m., Yang Dezhong received the final results of the election of academician members.

A total of 11 people from Peking University were elected as academicians!
This can be regarded as a great achievement of his, right? Of course, looking at the list of elected academicians, more than half of them have participated in Wang Haoran's research team.

Yang Dezhong was secretly glad that his efforts to get closer to Wang Haoran were not in vain.

He was still quite ambitious, and he thought to himself, during my term of office, I must crush Tsinghua University!
He also knew that in this election of additional members of Tsinghua University's academic department, only eight people were elected, three fewer than Peking University.

The comparison between these two schools in all aspects is simply indistinguishable.

Yang Dezhong believes that the strength in academic research will ultimately determine which of the two schools will have the last laugh!
"Principal Yang, there is another piece of news just now."

"Did you know? A total of 22 people from Beijing Institute of Technology were elected as academicians this time! Twice as many as us!" Secretary Chen Kaixuan hurried over again and told Yang Dezhong the bad news.

Yang Dezhong knew that Beijing Institute of Technology had nominated more candidates for academic committee members this time than Peking University and Tsinghua University.

However, he never expected that the other party could actually have more than 20 people elected as academic committee members...

This should be the highest in the country, right?

Yang Dezhong sighed and said, "Comrade Haoran has really boosted the Beijing Institute of Technology this time!"

"It's only been a year, right? Their school has been completely transformed..."

There was a sour tone in Yang Dezhong's words.

Chen Kaixuan said: "The majority of the members of the two major projects led by Comrade Haoran are from Beijing Institute of Technology."

"We can't compare on this point."

Yang Dezhong said: "In the future, we should actively cooperate with Comrade Haoran. As long as his new projects require our cooperation, we will actively cooperate!"

……

Beijing Institute of Technology, President Liu Xianchao also quickly learned the good news of his school.

"Haha! Great! That's great!"

"Our school is the biggest winner in the election of faculty members this time!"

Liu Xianchao said with a hearty laugh.

It happened that Qian Dake came to talk to Liu Xianchao about something. When he learned that he was successfully elected as a member of the academic department, he was very happy.

Qian Dake said: "President, the reason why we were able to become so popular this time and surpass Tsinghua University, Peking University and other famous universities in the country is mainly because we have the help of Comrade Haoran."

"Look at the elected academicians from Peking University and Tsinghua University. More than half of them participated in Comrade Haoran's chip industry chain project and achieved breakthrough results, which is why they were elected as academicians."

Liu Xianchao nodded and said, "Yes! Each of us should thank Comrade Haoran."

"There are a few comrades in particular who had never been able to show their talents in scientific research before, but after cooperating with Haoran, they suddenly stood out."

"Well! When Haoran comes back, we must hold a celebration banquet! Let's celebrate properly!"

……

This time, Beijing Institute of Technology reported nearly 30 people at one time to compete for the position of academician.

A total of 22 people were elected.

Another six people were eliminated.

Among the losers was Fu Zheyuan from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering.

In fact, Fu Zheyuan has researched one or two fairly good new materials in the past.

However, the results he produced were inferior to those of material experts outside the school, let alone those from within the school.

What made Fu Zheyuan most depressed and crazy was that he failed to be elected as a member of the academic department, but his student Zhang Aimin was elected!

Zhang Aimin was finally promoted to associate professor in June this year.

Afterwards, the school nominated him to run for the academic committee.

Associate professors can naturally also be evaluated as academicians.

As long as the results are good enough, there will be no problem in getting elected.

Zhang Aimin was pushed to run for election this time, but he himself actually had no hope.

Because he has relatively little experience!
He had just been promoted to associate professor and was still young, only 31 years old.

Zhang Aimin thought that participating in the evaluation for the position of academician this time was actually just about accompanying the prince in his studies.

He never dreamed that he could be elected.

Fu Zheyuan had high expectations for this selection of academician members.

He is almost sixty years old.

If he cannot be elected as a member of the academic department as soon as possible, he may never be able to reach the top in the field of scientific research in his lifetime.

On the morning of the selection day, Fu Zheyuan made full use of his own channels to obtain the latest information.

By 10 o'clock in the morning, he had already learned the bad news that he had been screened out.

Fu Zheyuan was like a deflated ball at that time, feeling extremely desperate.

In the hours after hearing the news, Fu Zheyuan could hardly muster any energy.

Then, a bigger blow came!
His student Zhang Aimin was just promoted to associate professor this year, and was elected as an academician in this additional election!

In other words, his students had completed a counterattack against their teacher in a very short time. This made Fu Zheyuan feel very bad.

Because he knew that everything originated from a mistake he made!
At first, he pretended to be reserved and was unwilling to participate in Wang Haoran's project.

This wrong choice ultimately led to his miserable end today.

Another person who was as frustrated as Fu Zheyuan was Lei Xiaojun.

Lei Xiaojun was also recommended by the school for the election of additional academicians.

But another young teacher from the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Guo Mingliang, was recommended at the same time as him.

Guo Mingliang was still an assistant teacher more than a year ago and had almost no presence at all.

But a year later, Guo Mingliang already had at least a dozen outstanding achievements.

Guo Mingliang was also promoted to lecturer because of his scientific research achievements.

In theory, lecturers are not eligible to be elected as academicians.

But under Wang Haoran's insistence, Guo Mingliang was still pushed forward to run for election.

Lei Xiaojun was so angry about this that his teeth were itching.

He very much hopes to borrow a few achievements from Guo Mingliang to participate in the evaluation of academician.

However, he was sternly rejected.

Lei Xiaojun was ultimately eliminated before he could enter the final selection process.

And lecturer Guo Mingliang actually made it to the end.

Looking at Guo Mingliang’s final score ranking, he was just a little bit away from being elected as a member of the academic department!

If he is really elected as a faculty member as a lecturer, that would be a record!

Lei Xiaojun was jealous to death.

……

Wang Haoran had a quick lunch at the Academy of Sciences at around 2:00 p.m. that day, and was then sent back to school.

After he returned to the office, people came to visit him one after another.

Some elected faculty members came to express their gratitude.

There is hope that we can get closer to Wang Haoran and please him.

Wang Haoran had a hard time coping because there were too many people coming.

Liu Xianchao came to Wang Haoran in person around 4 p.m. and said to him, "Comrade Haoran, our school has won a great victory in today's election of faculty members! Haha!"

"For the first time, we have surpassed Tsinghua and Peking University by a large margin!"

"It's not easy. It's really not easy!"

"We can achieve this result, but it is all thanks to your help."

"I was thinking, how about we get together tonight and celebrate?"

Wang Haoran smiled and said, "President, our school will continue to be strong in the future! I said that I must help Beijing Institute of Technology become the best university in the country! This is not a joke."

That night, Beijing Institute of Technology invited all the faculty members and senior professors of the school to celebrate in the school’s small restaurant.

Wang Haoran once again became the focus of this gathering.

However, Wang Haoran always felt a little uneasy.

Because he was worried that Xiao Lijuan's due date had arrived, but there was still no news.

"Haoran, do you have something on your mind?" Liu Xianchao asked.

Wang Haoran expressed his concerns.

Liu Xianchao said: "Haoran, don't worry too much. Our school's car is on standby at any time. If you feel signs of labor coming, it's not too late to rush to the hospital immediately."

"Well! If it really doesn't work, then send your wife to the hospital to wait for the birth, so you don't have to worry."

Wang Haoran said: "The main reason is that there is a shortage of beds right now, and the hospital is not willing to let us go there early to reserve a bed."

Liu Xianchao said: "I will coordinate this matter. Later, the school will send a car to take your wife to the obstetrics ward of the hospital..."

As they were talking, Feng Aiguo, the school security officer, hurried over.

"Principal, Comrade Haoran's wife has shown signs of labor..." Feng Aiguo said.

Wang Haoran almost jumped up from his chair: "Then I'll go back quickly."

Liu Xianchao also hurriedly chased after him, saying as he walked: "Aiguo, hurry up and contact the gynecologist at our school hospital to come over and take care of things, and also send the ambulance from our school hospital over immediately..."

Other people who were attending the party also stood up, and everyone wanted to offer some help.

However, Wang Haoran declined.

There are so many people, but they can't help much, and I'm in trouble.

However, the big guys from our school who are attending the party tonight are not willing to give up this opportunity to show goodwill.

Everyone followed Wang Haoran towards the staff quarters.

When we came for dinner, everyone came on bicycles.

So, it only took a few minutes for everyone to ride their bikes to the downstairs of Wang Haoran's home.

At this moment, there was an ambulance parked downstairs.

This ambulance belongs to the Beijing Institute of Technology Hospital.

Several colleagues from the Security Department happened to carry Xiao Lijuan down from upstairs on a stretcher.

Lin Yaling followed behind carrying a delivery bag.

Wang Haoran parked the car and ran over quickly.

Xiao Lijuan on the stretcher looked a little pale, with a look of pain between her brows.

"Lijuan, are you okay?"

When Xiao Lijuan saw Wang Haoran’s anxious face, her heart felt warmed.

"It's fine, Haoran, don't be too anxious."

"Look at you, you're so anxious that sweat is coming out of your forehead."

There was no time for unnecessary nonsense, so Wang Haoran helped lift Xiao Lijuan into the ambulance. Because the compartment was small and there were medical staff to take care of her, Wang Haoran could only sit in the co-pilot seat of the ambulance.

Haidian Hospital is not too far away.

Soon, we arrived at the hospital.

The medical staff from the obstetrics and gynecology ward were already waiting there.

Xiao Lijuan was immediately taken to the obstetric operating room on a stretcher.

Next, Wang Haoran began to wait anxiously outside the delivery room.

Liu Xianchao and several people from the school security department insisted on staying outside with Wang Haoran.

Soon, Xiao Renming also hurried over.

Peking University also held a celebration banquet tonight.

Newly elected academicians such as Xiao Renming will also attend.

Xiao Renming was talking to a colleague when someone hurried over to tell him that his daughter was about to give birth and was currently in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Haidian Hospital.

Naturally, Xiao Renming couldn't sit still when he heard this.

Peking University President Yang Dezhong hurriedly announced that the others should continue drinking and eating, while he would accompany Xiao Renming to take a look.

They took a Modou sedan, but the car broke down once on the way. The driver got out and fixed it for a while before it was finally able to continue driving.

Nowadays, most drivers repair their cars themselves.

Because cars these days break down too easily.

Fortunately, the car was repaired.

When they arrived at the hospital, Xiao Renming said embarrassedly, "Principal Yang, thank you for sending me here."

"You can go back and continue entertaining the teachers."

Yang Dezhong shook his head and said, "I'd better wait here for a while and see if there is anything I can help you with."

Yang Dezhong was reluctant to leave, so he accompanied Xiao Renming to the door of the delivery room.

He saw that Liu Xianchao, the president of Beijing Institute of Technology, was also there.

There were more than ten people standing outside the delivery room.

Wang Haoran naturally came over to say hello.

"Comrade Haoran, what did the doctor say?" Yang Dezhong asked.

Wang Haoran said: "The doctor said that everything is fine at the moment. The cervix is ​​almost fully dilated and the baby is in a relatively normal position..."

As they were talking, a baby's cry was heard in the delivery room.

"The baby was born, and the crying was so loud and powerful!" Lin Yaling said with a smile.

"From the sound of the cry, we know it's a boy." Xiao Renming also said with a smile.

Everyone congratulated Wang Haoran.

After a while, the door of the delivery room opened and a nurse came out with a baby in her arms.

She didn't even ask if Xiao Lijuan's family was there, but went straight to Wang Haoran with the child in her arms.

"Comrade Haoran, congratulations! You gave birth to a boy, weighing 7.1 kilograms!" the nurse said to Wang Haoran.

Wang Haoran hurriedly thanked him.

Everyone gathered around to look at the child.

This child had thick black hair when he was born, and his face and body were chubby, white and smooth.

This is not common among newborns.

Newly born babies are not very good-looking. Most of them are wrinkled and dark, like little old men. Only after they are one month old will they become more and more beautiful, gradually becoming delicate and lovable.

The child was taken back by the nurse.

It will take a while before the child and the mother are pushed out of the delivery room and sent to the general ward.

However, this night is very hard. You basically cannot sleep because you have to keep an eye on the pregnant woman and the child.

The child has been born, mother and child are safe, and all the people who were originally waiting outside the delivery room with Wang Haoran were persuaded to leave.

When Liu Xianchao left, he said to Wang Haoran: "Haoran, if you have anything to say, just let me know. The school will give you ten days of leave. If it's not enough, we'll approve it when the time comes."

Lin Yaling happened to be nearby, so she smiled and said, "Haoran, you are a man who can do big things. I can take care of things like confinement by myself. You just need to accompany me tonight, and there will be no problem afterwards."

"Just do your job well and don't waste too much time on trivial matters."

Liu Xianchao smiled and said, "Teacher Lin, I'm afraid you can't take care of her alone."

"Because, during the confinement period, there is a lot of work to do. You have to take care of the baby and the mother."

"How about this, the school will help Comrade Haoran find a reliable babysitter to reduce the workload of Teacher Lin."

Liu Xianchao also did this to relieve Wang Haoran's pressure so that he wouldn't be affected too much in the work at hand.

What Wang Haoran didn't expect was that that night, Liu Xianchao asked someone to find a nanny and brought her to the hospital personally to help Wang Haoran keep watch.

This nanny is from a rural area outside Beijing. She is only in her 30s and is very capable. She runs around by herself and keeps the care of patients and children in an orderly manner.

A nanny like this would be very happy and satisfied with only 15 yuan a month.

PS: I will continue to update more than 6 words today. The author has been adjusting the writing state. There are many trivial matters at home and the state is not smooth. Finally, I beg for the support of the big brothers.
