Accompanied by the howling cold wind, the goose-feather heavy snow covered the earth with white snow in the blink of an eye. The first year of Zhengde is coming to an end. For the old and young men in the Beijing and Tianjin areas, this year is another good harvest year.
The temporary office building of the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Ming Dynasty is here. Professors, engineers, scientists, researchers, etc. from the major new universities, major research institutions, major factories, and research laboratories of major commercial banks in the Ming Dynasty gather together, and it is very lively.
Everyone is constantly discussing the list of candidates for the first batch of academicians of the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Ming Dynasty.
The Emperor of Heaven attaches great importance to the development of science and technology, and attaches great importance to scientific and technological talents. He not only established the Academy of Sciences, but also spent 10 million taels of silver on his own for rewards, and also gave scientific researchers a higher identity and status.
This is undoubtedly a huge encouragement and motivation to everyone.
According to the "Selection System for Academicians of the Royal Academy of Ming Dynasty and Progress Award Selection System" issued by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the imperial court, everyone needs to select the relevant lists in early December and submit them to the court for review. The final list will be selected by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. to finalize.
This is the first time that the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Ming Dynasty has selected academicians, and it is also the first time that the Ming Dynasty has selected the Science and Technology Progress Award. Not only people in the scientific community have paid great attention to this matter, but the entire Ming Dynasty has also paid attention to it.
"Everyone!"
"This is the first time that our Royal Academy of Sciences has selected academicians, and it is also the first time that we have selected the Science and Technology Progress Award."
¡°The emperor and the imperial court attach great importance to and trust our new learning, and have delegated all relevant authority to our hands.¡±
"The entire Ming Dynasty is paying close attention to our selection, especially those from the old school are staring at us, waiting to see our jokes."
¡°So I think we need to be cautious when making recommendations and nominations. Only when we are able to make recommendations and make innovative achievements can we be qualified for recommendation and nomination.¡±
"We must be cautious and cautious, and we must not let others see our newly learned jokes."
Ren Siheng looked at the many scientific giants in front of him and said slowly.
Ren Siheng was awarded the title of earl by Emperor Hongzhi many years ago because of his outstanding contributions in the fields of steam trains, internal combustion engines and machinery. He is considered one of the representative figures in the field of Ming Dynasty science.
This time Liu Jin also asked Ren Siheng to take charge of this work. At first, Ren Sihenghai was reluctant because he felt that his contribution was not big and he was not qualified.
But in the end Liu Jin persuaded him and asked him to communicate with presidents and well-known professors of many universities such as Daming Royal Institute of Technology, Daming Imperial Institute of Technology, Daming Medical College, Daming Royal Medical College, Daming Engineering Institute, Daming Mechanical Institute, Daming Institute of Chemistry, etc. Let¡¯s take charge of this work together.
In Liu Jin's words, people who are new to learning should be true gentlemen. Whenever the emperor and the court need it, they should stand up without hesitation, instead of imitating those sour and rotten scholars who hold the pipa half-covered and pretend to be important to others. The one who asked me four times was coy and unwilling to show off.
"Principal Ren said it well!"
¡°Although our new school is full of talents and various achievements and breakthroughs are constantly emerging, there are only thirty academicians a year and there are only three places for the Progress Award, so everyone should be cautious when recommending nominations. "
Xia Peiliang, the president of Daming Royal Institute of Technology, also spoke.
"This is the emperor's trust and encouragement to us. We must choose someone who truly convinces everyone."
Wei Nanping also followed suit.
"Everyone can start to recommend and nominate now. For every recommendation and nomination, everyone can express their own opinions and views."
Ren Siheng nodded, thought about it and said, "I will be the first to recommend and nominate."
"I nominate Zhang Xingjian. Zhang Xingjian discovered penicillin and created a new field of medicine - the field of antibiotics. The penicillin he discovered has miraculous effects on pneumonia, tetanus, viral influenza, etc., which has greatly improved our Ming Dynasty's medical science. level, increasing the average life expectancy of our Ming Dynasty by at least 20 years."
"I think Zhang Xingjian deserves to be elected as an academician of the Ming Dynasty Royal Academy of Sciences, and he can also receive the Science and Technology Progress Award!"
As Ren Siheng finished speaking, everyone looked at Zhang Xingjian who was sitting in the square array of Daming Medical College.
As a man of mixed Ming and European descent, Zhang Xingjian is tall, fair-skinned, with three-dimensional facial features and blue eyes. At this moment, he looks very shy.The field also has outstanding contributions. "
"Zhu Shou is one, he is indeed qualified."
Hearing what everyone said, Ren Siheng wiped the sweat from his forehead slightly. There were not many people who knew Zhu Shou's true identity, and he was one of them. This Zhu Shou was actually the man he was today.

"I nominated Professor Li Song from the Beijing Engineering College, the chief engineer of the Changcheng-Chengdu Railway. The Changcheng-Chengdu Railway passed through the most difficult Shu road and created a number of technologies, which greatly promoted the construction technology in the field of our Daming Engineering Bridge. We can build railways to reach the most difficult areas in the southwest."
"No, no, I, Li Songhe, can't do anything. I don't dare to take credit. This is the contribution of the entire team. It must not be possible. This must not be possible!"
When Professor Li Song heard this, he immediately shook his head.
"I propose Principal Ren Siheng. Principal Ren has made outstanding contributions in the field of machinery. He has participated in many major projects in the mechanical field such as cultivators, harvesters, trains, etc. and has made outstanding contributions. He is completely qualified!"
"No, no, I can't get on the stage"
"Principal Ren is so humble, so humble!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
