Aifu's sudden bold and passionate confession made Chen Muwu blush and caught him off guard.
His heart was like a ferry crossing the Oresund Strait, undulating with the waves of the sea.
It seems that it would be good to stay in France like this. The equipment in Madame Curie's laboratory is no worse than that of Cavendish Laboratory.
And my good friend Debroglie is rich and generous. If he needs any equipment, he can fool this sponsor to buy it.
Also, if you live in Paris, you can taste Ye Gongchao's craftsmanship that he cherishes so much. Even if you don't eat Chinese food, French food is better than British food.
The key point is that Paris has Eve!
The beauty in red and the friend in white sing together in the morning and drink together in the evening.
People say that I love Chang'an, but in fact I only love someone in Chang'an.
Chen Muwu, who was drunk in the beauty's gentle country, almost subconsciously agreed to Ai Fu's words.
But he suddenly thought that even if he could live in Paris in comfort for more than ten years, he would still have to make another choice in 1940.
Either go to Dunkirk and take a ship, or stay in Paris and wait to rub the atomic bomb for the Führer.
There was absolutely no way he could go to Paris, so he had to find a way to lure Eve to his side.
Unable to make this promise, Chen Muwu simply pretended to be faint and rested his head on Eve's shoulder.
Bohr now knew who this girl was, and he finally understood why Chen Muwu looked down on the Danish girl introduced to him by his wife Margaret.
Who would be willing to go to a remote place like Copenhagen if he could stay on the European continent and be Madame Curie's consort?
The distance between Copenhagen and Malmö is only twenty kilometers, much shorter than the narrowest point of the English Channel from Dover to Calais.
The time it took for the ship to cross the Oresund Strait was only more than half an hour.
I don’t know if it was Poseidon, Niord, Ao Shun or another sea god from other myths who protected me. Anyway, during this trip, the sea was finally calm, and the seasickness that Chen Muwu was worried about did not appear after all.
After the ship docked, Chen Muwu wanted to get off the ship with the passengers.
Unexpectedly, Bohr pulled him back, pointed at Chen Muwu's hair, which was a little messy because he was leaning on Ive's shoulder, and said: "Chen, if you don't want your current look to appear in the Stockholm newspapers tomorrow, Then I advise you to tidy up your clothes."
Although he felt that Bohr was a bit alarmist, Chen Mu still put his hat on his head.
The fact is just as Bohr said, before this ferry docked, reporters were already waiting there at the pier of Malmö Port.
As soon as Chen Muwu and his family and friends appeared at the cabin door, the shutter of the camera started clicking.
I don’t know whether these people recognized Olympic champion Chen Muwu from the photos published in newspapers this summer, or whether they recognized Bohr, the Danish national treasure who was accompanying him.
Interviews are naturally indispensable. These uncrowned kings all took the evening train from Stockholm to Malmö yesterday, just so that the first-hand news they could get from the interviews would be published in various newspapers that will be published tomorrow.
"Dr. Chen, I am a reporter from Svenska Dagbladet. Congratulations on winning the Nobel Prize! How do you feel now?"
"I'm very excited, very happy, and I'm very grateful to the Nobel Prize jury for recognizing me. Sweden is a beautiful country..."
Chen Muwu said some high-sounding polite words. At the end, he began to remind reporters, "As a preview, at the award ceremony in a few days, I will announce a major research result to the world for the first time. I hope you will not be absent. .”
"Dr. Chen, what kind of results are these? Could you please tell us a little bit about them?"
It's pointless to say it now. Chen Muwu could only hold out a finger in a mysterious manner and pointed at the sky: "I can only tell you that this research result is related to God."
"Well, since Dr. Chen has reservations, I can only expect you to reveal the answer to this mysterious question at the award ceremony."
These reporters also understand that the public does not want to know advanced physics knowledge, but they want to know what kind of person this Chen Muwu is.
So the reporters focused their interviews on Chen Muwu...
...on top of Eve next to her.
There was no way. Although Bohr reminded him to wear a hat, he couldn't tell Chen Muwu directly not to get off the boat with his female friend, right?
Therefore, sharp-eyed reporters have long seen that the relationship between Chen Muwu and the white woman of the same age next to him is extraordinary. People are always more interested in love stories between talented men and beautiful women.
Who is the lady next to you? "
The reporters came straight to Chen Muwu instead of interviewing Ye Gongchao, another East Asian at the scene. They felt that they should have done their homework in advance.
"This is a good friend of mine."
"Are you two dating?"
Chen Muwu couldn't answer this question, so he could only turn his attention to Ai Fu beside him.
"Mr. Reporter, this is a personal question. I should be able to choose not to answer it, right?"
…
Eve's answer perfectly demonstrates what it means to hide something hidden.
When the group finally finished their interviews with reporters, they took the evening train to leave Malmö Pier and arrived at Stockholm Railway Station at eight o'clock the next morning.
On the newsstand in the center of the station platform, sales have begun. The front page reads "Dr. Chen Muwu announced that he will announce a research result related to God at the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony" and "Dr. Chen Muwu arrived with a close female friend." "Sweden" and other newspapers with big headlines, and the latter one also published a large photo taken during the interview.
Bohr, the most famous physicist in Northern Europe, has become a supporting role in today's newspaper, and his name can only appear in the small print of this report.
After getting off the train and stepping onto the platform, Chen Muwu still could not leave the station directly.
The Swedish officials who came to pick up the station and the staff of the Nobel Prize Foundation had been waiting on the platform for a long time. They enthusiastically pulled Chen Muwu, Bohr and his party to take a group photo here.
The reception level for Nobel Prize winners this year is very high, not because of Chen Muwu’s fame, but because there are only two winners who came to Stockholm.
The Nobel Peace Prize is awarded at the Norwegian Parliament in Oslo, not to mention that this year’s Peace Prize winner is vacant.
This year's Chemistry Prize is also vacant, with only three people selected for the five Nobel Prizes.
In addition to Chen Muwu, the winner of the Physics Prize, there are also the Dutch Willem Einthofen, the winner of the Physiology or Medicine Prize, and the Polish Wladyslaw Reymont, the winner of the Literature Prize.
However, the last literature prize winner was unable to come to Stockholm to receive the award due to a frail health caused by heart disease, so only two people were actually present.
That's why the organizers have a lot of money to host Chen Muwu this year, so they went to Stockholm Railway Station to stage such a show.
The group photo had been taken, and it was logical that we could finally leave the train station, but unexpectedly something unexpected happened.
Someone sent by the Swedish royal family appeared on the platform. It turned out to be Prince Gustaf Adolf, Crown Prince of Sweden. He read the news in this morning's newspaper that Chen Muwu had arrived in Sweden.
That's why he sent a royal servant to the train station to try his luck. If he could meet his old friend, he would invite Chen Muwu to his villa on the outskirts of Stockholm.
The Swedish royal family is not as wealthy as the British royal family. Crown Prince Gustav does not have a palace of his own. In theory, he has to live in the palace in Stockholm before he ascends the throne.
But not having your own palace doesn't mean you don't have your own private residence.
Although the royal family is poor, the prince's wealth should be much higher than that of ordinary people.
And no one wants to live with their parents every day, not to mention that the crown prince is already in his forties.
Another reason why Prince Gustav Adolf can confidently and boldly invite Chen Muwu to live in his villa is that he saw a photo of Chen Muwu and Ive in the "Swedish Daily News" this morning.
Although Chen Muwu has always denied his relationship with the beautiful young lady next to him in interviews, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the relationship between the two people is definitely extraordinary.
Prince Gustav Adolf secretly praised Chen Muwu for his great job and his good taste.
He sent someone to invite Eve and Chen Muwu to come together, and also asked his daughter Ingrid, Chen Muwu's crush, to see with her own eyes the perfect match between this handsome and talented couple, and he completely gave up on marrying a commoner.
The group of people from Denmark had to part ways at the Stockholm train station.
At the invitation of the royal servants, Chen Muwu took Eve and boarded the, uh, Rolls-Royce they sent.
The car brand Volvo has not yet appeared. Although Sweden's domestic automobile industry has already started, it has not yet formed a climate.
Therefore, members of the royal family still prefer to import brand cars from the UK.
Others, headed by Bohr, were sent to hotels that had been booked in advance by the staff of the Nobel Prize Foundation in accordance with established policies.
This was also the first time they encountered such a situation. They went to the train station to pick up the Nobel Prize winner, but they didn't expect to be intercepted halfway.
The key is that the person who intercepted them is really untouchable.
Prince Gustav Adolf was very happy to meet Chen Muwu again after half a year.
In Paris this summer, he thought Chen Muwu was just a fast Chinese swimmer.
Unexpectedly, just a few months later, this flying fish in the water would actually win the Nobel Prize.
Although they were very happy, the two just exchanged a few words and ended the conversation.
The Nobel Prize speech was coming soon, and the Crown Prince of Sweden was embarrassed to waste Chen Muwu's time.
But he also told Chen Muwu that he should stay here for a few more days after it was over. There were still a few things he wanted to discuss with him and some people he wanted to introduce to him.
…
After seeing the schedule sent by the staff, Chen Muwu realized how complicated the process of receiving a Nobel Prize was.
He always thought that everything would end on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel's death. He never expected that the whole process would last four days.
The Swedes spend a lot of money every year to invite the world's top scientists to participate in this event. Of course, it will not end in a day. They have to squeeze out their use value.
It was Chen Muwu’s first time, and it was normal for him to have little experience.
If he comes to receive the award next time, he should be able to master it easily.
Wednesday evening, December 10, 1924.
Stockholm's city hall was crowded with hundreds of men and women in exquisite clothes and elegant makeup, including King Gustaf V of Sweden. Chen Muwu's relatives and friends who came to Sweden from four different countries were also among them. Here they are waiting for the Nobel Prize award ceremony to begin.
At exactly five o'clock in the afternoon, a loud blast of brass trumpets reminded the audience to be quiet.
After that, the two doors of the award room slowly opened. Chen Muwu and Einthoven, the two new Nobel Prize winners, were each accompanied by a staff member and walked to the red velvet armchair next to the podium. The chairs are lined with pink cyclamen.
The Swedish flag, the Republic of China flag, the Dutch flag and the Polish flag were hung side by side in the middle of the city hall. The five-color striped flag was mixed in among these European flags, without any sense of disobedience.
The chairmen of the review committees of different disciplines announced the names of this year's Nobel Prize winners to the guests present.
Chen Muwu didn't know how prejudiced Alva Gulstrand, the chairman of the physics committee, was against him.
After hearing him read out his name, Chen Muwu, who was sitting on the chair, nodded to him.
Then, for the first time in so many days after he learned that he had won the award, he heard his own reason for winning the award.
“Your Majesty the King and Queen, Your Royal Highnesses, Ladies and Gentlemen:
“The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded this year’s Nobel Prize in Physics to Dr. Muwu Chen of the University of Cambridge for his discovery of the phenomenon named after him, ‘Chen scattering’.
"Dr. Muwu Chen received the award for his discovery of a new scattering effect in the field of visible light.
"The scattering of light is an optical phenomenon that has long been known. Light is imperceptible unless it shines directly into the eye.
"If a beam of light passes through..."
Quantum mechanics is a very theoretical thing, and it is a new thing that has not yet been accepted by everyone. It’s just that I didn’t mention it.
Gulstrand also did not mention a word about the gamma ray "Chern scattering" that can prove the particle nature of light, and the electron diffraction experiment that can prove the wave nature of electrons.
Although these two things have gradually been accepted by most physicists, in his opinion, they are still very deviant.
The content of Gulstrand's speech was all about introducing the "Chern scattering" of visible light to everyone present in simple and easy-to-understand terms, which is a relatively simple result in the history of physics.
This should be the final stubbornness of the Nobel Prize jury. Just like Einstein won the award for discovering the theoretical explanation of the photoelectric effect, Chen Muwu followed in the footsteps of his predecessors and took a curve to save the country.
"...Finally, it is worth emphasizing that Dr. Chen Muwu has surpassed Professor William Lawrence Bragg, one of the 1915 Nobel Prize winners in Physics, and became the youngest Nobel Prize winner in history at the age of 22. winner.
"Dr. Chen Muwu, your discovery of 'Chen scattering' has proven to be so important that the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences decided to award you the Nobel Prize.
"I now ask you to stand and receive this award from His Majesty the King!"
As he spoke, Gustaf V, who was over sixty years old, had already ascended the podium.
According to etiquette, Chen Muwu stood up and bowed to him, and then took the half-pound gold medal from the King of Sweden.
The sound of the camera shutter came together with the flash of burning magnesium rods.
Make up for it tomorrow! Will make up for it tomorrow! (Not to mention it’s a puppy)
