Song Weiyang receives several awards every year, but only those with high-ranking officials or above will show up on the scene in person.

The May 4th Youth Medal, I have to go, and a great leader will meet you.

There are only five winners of the first May 4th Youth Medal, namely: engineers, workers, farmers, soldiers, and teachers. Their common point is: party members.

By the third session, the number of winners had increased to 16, most of them belonged to party members, and only one was a member of the Democratic League. It just so happened that everyone knew this Democratic League member, Mr. Guo Guangchang, a member of the Taurus Society.

This year belongs to the fourth session, and except for Song Weiyang, everyone else is a party member.

Generally speaking, this kind of selection requires recommendations from the unit, and this time the group and the Federation of Industry and Commerce jointly recommended Song Weiyang, otherwise he would not be elected for another 10,000 years.

Song Weiyang arrived at the hotel at noon and happened to have lunch.

In the elevator to the restaurant, a man in his 30s stretched out his right hand and greeted him with a smile: "Boss Song, long time no see."

"Dr. Sun, lucky to meet!" Song Weiyang shook hands enthusiastically.

This is Sun Yun, the president of Xikang Road and Bridge Company. He was named an outstanding young man in the province with Song Weiyang two years ago and has been considered a match. This guy is a technical official and a bridge expert. He enjoys special national allowances. He is responsible for the province's expressway, so Song Shumin and Sun Yun are also familiar with him.

Song Weiyang and Sun Yun were fellow villagers, and they spoke dialects of their hometown along the way and quickly became enthusiastic.

Song Weiyang asked: "Dr. Sun, when will the expressway connecting Rongping be fully opened to traffic?"

"The road sections in the province are getting closer and will be opened to traffic at the end of the year," Sun Yun said. "It's really troublesome in the mountain city. There are 20 or 30 tunnels. Fortunately, I'm not responsible for the Shancheng project now. When I was building bridges in Shancheng, I was often worried that I would lose my hair."

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "If you want to get rich, build roads first. Dong Sun is the leader in getting rich in Xikang Province."

"Hahaha," Sun Yun laughed happily, "Boss Song, you speak so beautifully. I want to regard this sentence as my goal, and hope to bring more people to wealth in the future."

Two people came to the restaurant talking and laughing, and a young man wearing glasses waved to Song Weiyang: "Boss Song, here!"

"Director Zhang, you are here too." Song Weiyang walked over quickly.

This person's name is Zhang Wenjun, and he is also a technical person. When Song Weiyang decided to establish Shenzhou Technology Company, he went to ask Shangshao's professional talents for help, and he had already dealt with Zhang Wenjun. At that time, this person was the vice dean of the School of Electronic Information and Electrical Engineering. He is now the dean and will become the vice president of Shangshao in the future. Two years ago, he led the development of China's first set of digital high-definition TV function machines (the third set in the world), and is one of the founders of China's digital TV industrialization.

More than half of the winners of this year's May 4th Youth Medal are technical talents. There are several doctoral supervisors, some engaged in satellite launches, some engaged in image communications, and some engaged in pattern recognition... The other four are from state-owned enterprises, three are the bosses of state-owned enterprises, one is the director of state-owned enterprises, and all have the title of "senior engineer".

From this selection criteria, we can see that the country attaches more importance to scientific and technological research and development and technological innovation. It is difficult for pure administrative bureaucrats to win the May 4th Youth Medal. Even the feed station managers selected this year have the title of "Senior Veterinarian", with a master's degree from the University of Aberdeen in the UK and a doctorate from the Dutch Agricultural University.

Compared with these people, Song Weiyang is not good at finding a diploma, and he is a big expert.

"Oh, the beauty is here!" Song Weiyang suddenly smiled.

The big guys stood up to greet each other, no matter what the doctoral supervisor or the senior engineer, they shook hands with the beauty, and even took out a small notebook to sign.

This beauty is table tennis player Wang Nan. She won the Grand Slam at the Asian Games two years ago and is about to participate in the Olympics. She was originally in a training camp in other places, but this time she rushed back to Beijing to receive the awards. It was only four months before the Olympics.

Song Weiyang was deeply impressed by the table tennis of this Olympics. Except for the men's singles, all Chinese played against Chinese in the other finals. At least two five-star red flags must be raised when awarding awards. However, the women's doubles in badminton are even more awesome. Three five-star red flags are raised at the same time, and the Chinese team won the championship, runner-up and third place.

For Wang Nan, everyone else was very unfamiliar, so she was a little familiar with Song Weiyang. She sat directly beside Song Weiyang, not as introverted as other athletes, with a generous and funny personality, and chatted with the big guys here from time to time.

Song Weiyang and Wang Nan are the youngest and have become the targets of everyone's jokes, saying that they are young people, and the rest are middle-aged people who are family members.

A female leader from a local mining bureau was very versatile and toasted everywhere, which quickly brought the atmosphere of the table to a climax. Except for Wang Nan, who only took a symbolic sip, everyone present started to snort, and after a while they were all drunk.

Song Weiyang was the most enthusiastic about two of them, one was Zhang Wenjun who handed over and the other was Tan Tiewen of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The former leads China's digital high-definition TV project, while the latter leads China's pattern recognition project. Let's not talk about digital high-definition TV. As for China Technology, it may also involve this aspect in the future. As for pattern recognition, it is a branch of artificial intelligence, including speech recognition, image recognition, text recognition, etc., and China Technology will also use it in smartphones in the future.

In the afternoon and evening that day, Song Weiyang took the initiative to go to their rooms and asked them carefully for high-tech knowledge that they didn't understand very much. By the way, they hired them as honorary consultants of Shenzhou Technology.

Don’t worry about whether you can use it or not. You must make the relationship well. As long as the time is right, Shenzhou Technology will set up relevant laboratories, and both of them can provide great help.

The next day, the medals and certificates were awarded, and then a special reception from a certain leader was received, and half of the winners were invited by CCTV to record the program.

Song Weiyang also went to CCTV. He is an old acquaintance and must give face and advertise on CCTV in the future.

CCTV 2 actually contacted Song Weiyang. This channel is about to be revised. The main column has been confirmed and Song Weiyang is invited to record "Dialogue" in two months.

"Dialogue" is still very famous, and it specially invites celebrities to do programs. Ma Xiaoyun has recorded 8 episodes of the program in more than ten years.

On May 8, Song Weiyang was about to leave Beijing, when Academician Ni suddenly called: "Xiao Song, are you interested in investing in SMIC? We have already started developing NC chips. If you have any intention, come over and talk."
