As Jason Leighton's interview concluded, the top doctor's praise once again brought more attention to the RSCA.
Suddenly, the entire medical community began to pay attention to when this new drug would start clinical trials.
However, just when the medical community was extremely busy, somewhere in Israel, another matter was being discussed.
…
"So, this meeting will be our last discussion about the winners."
In the conference room, Sirtis Olga, who was sitting at the head of the table, patted the table and announced.
This is the Wolf Prize Committee, and the people present are naturally the committee members.
In their hands, they all hold the right to vote to decide who wins the award.
The other committee members present had solemn eyes and did not speak.
"Of course, before the discussion officially begins, I still need to emphasize to everyone that we will announce the list to the public on February 9, so I hope that this meeting can be an effective meeting."
As the chairman of the committee, Sirtis Olga looked around at everyone present and said again.
"Okay, according to the old rules, let's start with the Mathematics Award. The final result of your Mathematics Award Review Committee should be confirmed, right? Busa Curtis."
Saying this, Sirtis Olga looked at the chairman of the Mathematics Award Review Committee.
Busa Curtis coughed twice, and then said: "I think there is no doubt about this for a long time. It is definitely Li Mu."
"Very good." Sirtis Olga nodded, then turned to look at the other person, "So, what about physics?"
"Li Mu."
Ilyan Buch, chairman of the Wolf Prize Physics Review Committee, said solemnly.
The whole audience fell into silence again.
"So, are you sure you won't change your mathematics prize and physics prize? Are we sure that this year's Wolf Prize, the two most important prizes, will be awarded to the same person at the same time?"
Someone expressed doubts.
This issue has always been the focus of their discussions.
Should we award two awards to one person in the same year?
As an important award in academia, second only to the Nobel Prize in terms of status, the Wolf Prize in Physics is considered to be the vane of the Nobel Prize in Physics, and the Mathematics Prize is listed as one of the three major awards in mathematics. .
If both awards were awarded to the same person in the same session, this would be unacceptable to those who believe that the image of the Wolf Prize should be maintained.
“It’s okay even if it’s awarded one year apart, but if it’s awarded to someone in the same year, it’s very necessary for us to consider the impact it will have on us and the impact it will have on the academic community.”
said Georgia Padilla, director of the Wolf Prize Foundation.
As a director of the Wolf Prize Foundation, although he is not a member of the jury, after all, the prize money is provided by their foundation.
Georgia Padilla has always valued the "reservation" of the Wolf Prize, so he believes that no matter how outstanding the winners are, they cannot be too proactive.
“Our intention is that any recipient should feel honored to have received the Wolf Prize.”
"That's what the foundation is about," Georgia Padilla said.
"So, I would also like to invite the two review chairmen, Busa Curtis and Iliyan Butch, and I hope you can seriously consider it, just like I said at the last meeting."
After hearing his words, everyone present showed impatient expressions.
In every previous discussion, Georgia Padilla almost always gave the same reasons to reject their proposal.
Now, they are all a little fed up.
“We, the Mathematics Review Committee, unanimously agree that Li Mu will win the prize, and that will never change.”
"The same goes for our physics review committee, which will not change."
Georgia Padilla frowned: "You guys..."
"That's enough, Director Padilla, don't always speak in terms of the foundation. Can you fully represent the foundation? Can you represent Mr. Wolfe?" Busa Curtis interrupted Joe. Words by Chia Padilla.
“The purpose of the Wolf Prize is to reward scientists who have made outstanding contributions, not to make scientists feel grateful for receiving the Wolf Prize.”
Iliyan Butch also nodded and said very seriously: "I'm sorry, Padilla History. It's hard for me to imagine that there is anyone more suitable to win the Wolf Prize than Li Mu this year, even if it is the second The candidates are far from Li Mu’s achievements.”
"In physics, the dimensional force theory is comparable to the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. It is the fifth fundamental force of the universe and the basic force of the fundamental forces. If the physics prize is not awarded to him, the public will only question our authority."
"Besides, in terms of mathematics, I really can't think of any other achievements that can be more qualified than the Hailstorm Conjecture, the Twin Prime Conjecture, and the Goldbach Conjecture prover to win the Mathematics Award. Similarly, if no gifts are given, Our authority will also be questioned."
"This is much more important than the image you said!"
"And if we don't choose Li Mu, how will those of us on the review committee be questioned by the academic community?"
"Director Padilla, do you really understand academics?"
After being bombarded by the two jury chairmen, Georgia Padilla looked a little unhappy.
Of course, before he could speak, the chairman of the Medical Award Committee also spoke.
"To be honest, Director Padilla, considering the increasing influence of Li Mu's vascular fluid dynamics analysis on diagnostics and the significance of his data analysis theory to our research, he has actually been included in our list. He is on the list of candidates next year, and there is a high probability that it will be awarded to him, so maybe we will have to wrestle with this issue then."
"You..." Georgia Padilla became a little angry after being opposed by so many people, "Don't forget, I said this was the foundation's intention, not mine."
"Then I'll just call Mr. Wolfe."
As Iliyan Butch said this, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket and started to make a call.
The Wolf Prize was established by Ricardo Wolf in 1976. The Wolf Foundation is responsible for awarding the prize, and the Wolf family serves as the chairman.
So the Mr. Wolf they are talking about is James Wolf, the current chairman of the Wolf Foundation.
Then, before Georgia Padilla could react, the call was answered.
Turning on the hands-free, James Wolfe's voice came from the other side: "Professor Butch, what's the matter?"
Ilyon Butch then told all the things that Georgia Padilla had done before, until finally, he asked: "Mr. Wolfe, what I want to know is, Director Padilla Do you really mean what the Foundation means?"
There was silence for a moment, and finally a voice came: "Damn, what I mean is that to maintain the image of the Wolf Prize to a certain extent, the main thing is to refer to the opinions of professors, rather than to maintain the image without a bottom line."
"What's more, I also think Dr. Li deserves to be given two awards at the same time. This is our honor."
"Professor Butch, I support all your decisions. That idiot Padilla, I will fire him."
James Wolfe's words echoed in the conference room, and Georgia Padilla's face had turned pale.
"Mr. Wolfe, I'm not..."
However, before he finished speaking, Iliyan Butchi smiled and said: "Thank you for your trust and understanding. I hope you have a pleasant trip to Hawaii. Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, everyone present glanced at Georgia Padilla.
"Security, where is the security?"
"Take away this irrelevant person who broke in."
…
Eventually, Georgia Padilla was dragged away by security.
The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became more harmonious.
Similarly, the subsequent determination of the winners also became smoother.
Until the end, Sirtis Olga said with a smile: "Then our list is finalized and ready for announcement."
Everyone nodded: "Yes, Mr. Chairman."
That’s it, February 9th local time.
The official website of the Wolf Prize officially announced this year’s winners.
The winners of the Mathematics and Physics Prizes all have the same name.
Li Mu!
Then, the academic world exploded.
Double award winner!
…
