Chapter 602 But how do you know that there is not much support or opposition?(1/2)
This news was somewhat sudden for Chen Zhou.
Although when Dean Yang asked those questions before, Chen Zhou had already roughly guessed what he wanted to say.
But when this guess came out of Dean Yang's mouth, it became reality.
Chen Zhou's feeling became different.
"Dean Yang, how did you know?"
Upon hearing this question, Dean Yang smiled mysteriously and said, "I can't tell you this for the time being, but I can guarantee the reliability of this news."
After a pause, Dean Yang looked at Chen Zhou, whose expression finally changed, and couldn't help but joked: "I thought you had no feelings for academicians? How about it? This news still caused some fluctuations in you, right?
"
Chen Zhou glanced at Dean Yang and chuckled: "Isn't this normal? Who wouldn't be happy after hearing good news?"
"It seems you are right..." Dean Yang looked at Chen Zhou and said, "But no matter what, the academician in his early 20s has broken the record of China. It is absolutely unprecedented! Even me
, I’m a little envious of you. As the vice-president of the Academy of Physics, I don’t know when I will be qualified as an academician..."
Although Dean Yang maintains a very optimistic attitude towards this matter.
But in Chen Zhou's view, the matter of co-opting academicians may not be as simple as imagined.
For Chen Zhou, if it is purely from the perspective of academic achievement.
Then he has absolute qualifications to run for the position of academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Whether it is in the field of mathematics or physics, he has enough capital.
But if we look at China’s past habits and the academician selection process.
Then Chen Zhou may not be able to be successfully elected as an academician.
Although the provisions of the Academician Charter of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are to make systematic, creative achievements and major contributions in the field of science and technology.
And they must be researchers, professors, or scholars and experts with equivalent professional titles who love the motherland, have an upright academic style, and have Chinese nationality.
Can be recommended and elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
However, the process of co-opting academicians every two years is more practical than the general words stipulated in the charter.
The first is that academician candidates are directly recommended by academicians, or candidates are recommended by relevant domestic scientific and technological research institutions, universities and first-level societies affiliated to the China Association for Science and Technology according to the organizational system.
In the academician recommendation here, each academician recommends no more than two candidates.
Moreover, it must be recommended by 3 or more academicians to be considered a valid recommendation.
As for the recommendations of academic groups, there are various preliminary selections and the like, which are carried out step by step.
The “requirements” for this recommendation are actually quite high.
It’s no longer just about academic achievements.
There are only 2 places for each academician, and there must be 3 or more academicians, so why should they recommend you?
The same goes for academic groups. Since they are groups, they must have interests.
Then, the standing committees of each department of the Chinese Academy of Sciences organize academicians to review and elect candidates.
It is easy to understand that review is a comprehensive and scientific evaluation of candidates.
This is also the easiest step.
After all, it is basically difficult for anyone who can become a candidate to lose at this level.
There is only the last step of the election.
The election will be conducted by secret ballot with a margin of 40%.
It is also required that the number of academicians participating in the voting election of each division of the Chinese Academy of Sciences needs to exceed one-half of the number of academicians of the division.
Then, candidates who receive no less than two-thirds of the votes cast shall be approved.
The candidates will be elected in order according to the quota of each department and the number of votes received until the quota is full.
This election is actually the same as the previous recommendation.
Whether it is candidate recommendation or voting, everyone is subjective.
There are too many factors to consider.
If there are no special circumstances, then of course more people would be more willing to vote for people they know well with their precious recommendation quotas and precious electoral votes?
Just like Mr. Tu, who often caused controversy in China and won China's first Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
Why was she able to win the Nobel Prize, but failed to be elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences twice?
In fact, not only Mr. Tu, but also Mr. Yuan, have also experienced such treatment.
They are the kind of people who are unwilling to have too many useless communications with people outside of research or professional fields.
They are the kind of people who focus on scientific research and devote themselves wholeheartedly to research.
As for the so-called favor, they are even less willing to make a fuss about it.
They have the nature of researchers. They say what they have to say without shying away or beating around the bush.
Of course, it is precisely for this reason that scientists like them will actually offend some people.
Invisibly, it increases the difficulty for them to enter the ranks of academicians.
Mr. Yuan was not elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering until nearly 20 years after hybrid rice was successfully promoted.
Therefore, although Chen Zhou saw that Dean Yang was very optimistic, he had some doubts about this matter.
As a result, he doesn't have much desire to participate in next year's academician co-optation.
Putting away his thoughts, Chen Zhou organized his language a little and said to Dean Yang: "Actually, academicianship is just an honor. With the title of academician, it is certainly more worthy of respect. But people without the title of academician, don't they?
Is it worthy of our respect?”
"In China, there are many scientists who have not obtained the title of academician, but they work silently in their posts and inject fresh vitality into the development of scientific research in China."
"So, regardless of whether they have academician titles or not, their contributions are worthy of our respect. We should also respect every scientific researcher who contributes silently behind the scenes."
"So, Dean Yang, it doesn't matter whether the academy is academician or not. What's important is the first question you asked me. Scientific researchers should only focus on scientific research results!"
Dean Yang looked at Chen Zhou who was speaking righteously and did not react for a moment.
Didn't this guy's face waver just now, looking a little excited?
Why did it happen again as soon as I was envious of it?
Unfortunately, I couldn't refute what this kid said.
After all, everything he said makes sense...
Dean Yang only felt that Chen Zhou's performance was really becoming more and more proficient.
By accident, he was tricked again...
In comparison, what I just said was simply too vulgar and vulgar...
"Well, Chen Zhou, the truth is indeed what you said, but if you can get this honor, why not get it?" Dean Yang changed his mind.
"Um, Dean Yang, I understand what you mean. No, I'm still too young. I think we at Yanda should reconsider this matter. Or, should we change someone else?" Chen Zhou also changed.
An idea.
Dean Yang looked at Chen Zhou with some surprise: "You don't want to participate in next year's academician election?"
Chen Zhou nodded slightly: "I think it's better to wait a little longer."
Dean Yang asked very puzzledly: "Why? This is an opportunity that many people can't even ask for?"
Chen Zhou replied: "It is precisely because this is an opportunity that many people can't ask for, so I want to wait a little longer."
When Dean Yang heard this, he was suddenly stunned.
He probably understood what Chen Zhou was thinking.
"Do you think that you have just returned to China a little too soon? In addition, your return to China has already brought many different impacts to the academic world, so you are worried about this matter and have not
It won’t go so well?”
Chen Zhou was not surprised that Dean Yang could think of this. After all, these were all things that were obvious.
His return to China actually touched the cake of some people.
There are also many people who do not welcome him back.
There is no guarantee that these people will not unite to stumbling upon Chen Zhou during next year's academician election.
In addition, the selection process for academician co-optation is actually very easy to operate.
Unless someone intervenes...
Seeing that Chen Zhou didn't speak, Dean Yang knew that he was right.
He thought for a while and said to Chen Zhou: "Actually, these interference factors do exist and cannot be ignored. I can also tell you some news. Some people in the academic world are indeed working together."
"But, you can't back down just because of this? As a nationally recognized banner for young talents, do you want to back down?"
