"The winner of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics is —"
"Lu Zhou!"
This solemn announcement and the torrential applause resounded throughout the venue. The Jin Ling University dormitory building, which was tens of thousands of kilometers away, burst into deafening cheers.
"This is nutty … Two Nobel Prizes already."
"He's the first in China, right?"
"Forget about China, there aren't many people in the world who have won two Nobel Prizes at the same time, right?"
"Jesus, when I think about how this nutty guy is our professor, I don't even dare to skip class anymore."
It was nine o 'clock in the evening in Beijing.
CTV applied for the live broadcast rights of the Nobel Prize, and the award ceremony was broadcasted live nationwide. In addition to the televised event organized by the school, almost all of the students in the school watched the live broadcast on their mobile phones.
Even though it wasn't an exciting competition.
But at the same time, it made people's hearts surge.
Especially since the winner was their senior.
Nine years ago, they sat in the same classroom, in the same library, worrying about the same exercise books, exams, and theses.
Winner of both the Nobel Prize in Physics and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
Of all the living scholars in the world today, no one had ever received such a great honor.
Ji Mo looked at the live broadcast on the computer screen and had an excited expression on his face. He clenched his fists on the table.
"No wonder he's Professor — Academician Lu! This is nutty! "
He almost blurted out the words "teacher".
He remembered Professor Lu's warning to him, so he immediately changed the word to Academician Lu.
"Yeah …" Duan Siqi stood behind his chair and watched Lu Zhou receive the medal from Carl XVI. He said emotionally, "After the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, the Nobel Prize in Physics. I won't be surprised if he also wins the Nobel Prize in Medicine."
Wu Di: "The Nobel Prize in Medicine is unlikely, I don't think he has published any papers in the medical field."
Yang Shuang: "Who knows? Maybe one day he'll be interested in biology. Aren't there a few concepts that are very popular right now? Quantum biology and the structure of DNA molecules, they seem to be related to mathematics. "
"What about the Nobel Prize in Literature? The Literature Award should have nothing to do with him, right? "
"That's hard to say. What if one day he has a whim and writes science fiction like Dyson?"
"If I remember correctly, Dyson did not win the Physics Prize or the Literature Prize …"
Just as Room 201 was discussing whether Academician Lu could win the Nobel Prize in Medicine and Literature while he was still alive, the discussions on the internet were like waves.
China has won another Nobel Prize in physics!
Moreover, he was an Academician Lu who had won the Fields Award and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry!
Just as the Central TV live broadcast of the awards ceremony reached its climax, the comments section of Central TV's official Weibo account was flooded with excited netizens.
"God Lu is awesome!"
"Amazing! Two Nobel Prizes! And it's in two different fields, chemistry and physics! "
"This is definitely a milestone for China's academic community!"
"Sigh, I feel bad for next year's candidates. It's going to be harder and harder to be God Lu's junior."
"Haha, it's more than hard! I heard that this year, the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study and Jin Ling University have set up a pilot program to train international scientific research talents. They expanded the original scientific research talent training program to ten international students. I heard that the University of Jin Ling's overseas admissions office was packed to the brim! "
"Really?"
"Of course! Don't you want a letter of recommendation from a Nobel Prize winner? "
Shuimu community.
As the most educated forum in China, the topics on the forum were relatively high-end and professional.
"I didn't expect the Nobel Committee to award the prize to the Z particle!"
"Yeah, I thought they would consider the electrostrong interaction theory! You don't know how excited our physics professor was in class when Professor Lu first came up with the electrostrong interaction theory! When he got excited, we almost called an ambulance for him! "
"Haha, Old Xu, right? I heard about this! When the report ended, he happened to be in his second class! "
"It makes sense to award it to the Z particle. After all, no one has ever discovered the existence of particles in high-dimensional space. No one has ever experimentally and theoretically explained the process of high-dimensional matter falling from n-dimension to n-1 dimension. Maybe his research results will become the basic theory for the physics community to study high-dimensional matter in the future. His contribution is no less than Newton's theorem of mechanics and Einstein's standard model! "
"Also, I feel like this Nobel Prize didn't consider the two soft factors, the ILHCRC and the Lunar Hadron Collider. Even though this isn't an academic achievement, it's no exaggeration to say that in the next century, his work will incubate at least 30 Nobel Prizes! The significance of this may be greater than the Z particle and the paper on Void Theory. "
"It's just that it's too early to say these things, we still need time to test them."
However, no matter how the touchstone of time was, there was no doubt about one thing.
Not to mention the top three in the physics community.
Even in the history of physics, with his achievements, it was definitely enough to rank in the top three.
…
Standing on this award stage again, Lu Zhou listened to the thunderous applause from the audience behind him. He took the medal from the old man in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little lost.
It's been five years.
Time really flies by.
From controllable fusion to the Moon landing, to the Lunar Hadron Collider and Lunar Mass Accelerator, these two almost impossible projects. If it weren't for the countless days and nights of hard work, everything would feel like a dream.
Looking at King Carl XVI's smiling eyes, Lu Zhou suddenly came back to his senses. After hugging him gently, he nodded politely and spoke.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, young scholar, this is the honor you deserve."
A relieved smile appeared on the old king's face. He continued in a sincere tone, "You have proved to the world the wisdom of you and the people behind you. At the same time, you also represent all of us standing on the peak of the human mind. Mr. Nobel will be proud of you. Your knowledge has changed the world, changed the way we live, and, unlike dynamite, it has enabled our children to live in a better world. "
He paused for a second and continued.
"So, why don't you influence more people? I believe that worldly things like money and fame are no longer your pursuits. With your current influence, you can definitely name a medal after you and make it a role model for more young people to strive for and pursue. "
Lu Zhou nodded lightly.
"I'm thinking about this."
At the International Congress of Mathematicians in St. Petersburg, he had been seriously considering this matter, but for various reasons, he didn't act on it.
And now …
Perhaps it was because pure honor could no longer satisfy his heart. This urge was getting stronger and stronger.
Carl XVI looked at Lu Zhou, who was seriously thinking about this matter. He nodded with a smile and spoke softly.
"It's just an old man's suggestion.
"Go and enjoy the ball. There must be a girl waiting for you for too long."
A girl …
Suddenly, a scene that shouldn't have appeared here flashed in Lu Zhou's mind.
This feeling that he had never felt before made his cheeks a little hot. Even though he forced himself to be calm, there was still a flash of embarrassment in his eyes.
The gray-haired old man keenly captured the flash of embarrassment in Lu Zhou's eyes. He smiled.
"It seems that I guessed right.
"It's good to be young. Only young people have the right to make mistakes, so don't let hesitation waste your youth. I have made many wrong decisions in my life, but the best choice was to ignore my family's obstruction and choose to be with my wife. "
Mr. Carl patted Lu Zhou's arm gently and spoke with a smile.
"Hurry up and go."
"The Goddess of the Lake of Lake Mälaren will bless you.
"Whether you believe in ancient myths or not, the dance floor of the Blue Hall and the pine forest by Lake Mälaren are excellent dating spots. No lady can refuse such romance.
"I remember this was written in a travel magazine."
