Chapter 304 Reaction
The Nobel Prizes are usually announced in batches in October.

The winners of one category are announced each day

The winners will learn the news about four hours earlier than the outside world.

The announcement of the Nobel Prize in Physics happened to be during Tokyo University's National Day, at 11:45 a.m. Central European Time, which is 45: p.m. Tokyo University time.

But the time Chen Yuanguang knew was afternoon.

When he hung up the phone, Lin Jia, who was beside him, came up to him and gave him a big hug.

She knew what it was about from the first congratulations she heard on the phone.

"Yuan Guang, congratulations on achieving your wish." Lin Jia was very happy.

Even Chen Yuanguang was not immune to this, let alone her.

The East and the West are split into two camps again, and this kind of heavyweight award from the opposing camps can still be said to be a testimony to their contributions.

You can have ten thousand pieces of evidence accusing the Nobel Prize of being politically manipulated, but you cannot deny that it has value in itself.

Not to mention that awards in the field of science are more valuable than literature and peace prizes.

Of course, the underlying reason is that the Western world has held the power to interpret the Bible for the past two hundred years.

The rise of the University of Tokyo is too short, and it is difficult for this kind of soft power to shake the West's right to interpret the Bible in the short term.

"You also get half of this prize." Chen Yuanguang said as he sniffed the fragrance emanating from Lin Jia's hair.

"My vision is really good. I have to admire why I chose you when I was in college."

Why are many businessmen superstitious? Because their success is inexplicable, and they themselves don’t know why they are successful. The theory of original sin is imposed on them by the outside world, and they themselves do not believe that their original wealth accumulation has original sin.

In order to find spiritual sustenance for themselves and explain their success through superstition, these people would seek immortals and worship Buddhas, trying every possible way to make themselves feel at ease.

Therefore, Lin Jia also felt that he was lucky. He said that he had a good vision. He found someone above the average line that could be explained by this theory. He found someone of Chen Yuanguang's level. No matter how good his vision was, it was
There is no explanation for this.

The probability of this is almost the same as winning the lottery ten times in a row.

It can only be explained from the perspective of luck.

"Haha" Chen Yuanguang just smiled faintly and didn't brag about anything anymore.

He no longer needs to tell the story of his achievements on his own because there is no need.

After laughing, he sighed again: "It's a pity that the old man couldn't see it. If he could see it, he would probably be happy too."

What Chen Yuanguang was thinking was that there are always regrets in life.

Lin Jia did not respond. After a brief silence, he changed the subject:
"Jiangnan University should hang a banner this time, saying that it has trained a Nobel Prize winner.

Especially your School of Chemistry, which has been bragging about it every year when recruiting students. I think it can continue to do so for at least another 20 years."

How has Jiangda been able to stay ahead of Jiangcheng University of Science and Technology in recent years? It is because of its outstanding alumni.

Chen Yuanguang is of course the most dazzling one, but Lei Jun is not inferior at all. After all, he donated a lot, but Chen Yuanguang didn't donate much to Jiangda.

This is the trick that Jiang University relied on when he was debating with other scholars online.

"Jiangsu University's computer science major is A+."

"We have the God of Light."

"Jiangsu University of Science and Technology's average salary ranks among the top five in the country."

“We Have a God of Light”

"Jiangsu University of Science and Technology ranks higher in the US than Jiangnan University"

“We Have a God of Light”

This fact put pressure on the students at Jiangke University, who had no power to refute.

Of course, there are hidden benefits brought by Chen Yuanguang, such as the preferential treatment given to Jiangnan University students by optical armor companies.

Even Jiangnan University has been developing rapidly in the field of aerospace in recent years, and has poached many professors from professional aerospace colleges such as Yenching University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

As for why we were able to dig, Jiangda's biggest bargaining chip is that we have many joint projects with Guangjia Aerospace.

The general operation mode is like this: Guangjia Aerospace has projects in some niche areas to be subcontracted to the academic community, and then there will be some potential targets. After Jiangda learns the news, it will recruit people according to the list.

After recruiting these people, we will then help them get involved in the horizontal projects of Guangjia Aerospace.

After all, there are quite a few Jiang University graduates in Guangjia Aerospace, so it is easy to leak this kind of information to Jiang University.

For these professors, they had no idea that they could get such projects even without coming to Jiangnan University, and they thought it was the result of Jiangnan University's operation.

As a result, it was rumored in the aerospace field that if one went to Jiang University, the probability of receiving a horizontal project from Guangjia Aerospace would be much higher.

This also led to Jiangnan University wielding its hoe more vigorously, and it poached many people from various strong aerospace schools. The president of Jiangnan University even shouted out the slogan of building Jiangnan University into a first-class university in the aerospace field.

This also made Jiangcheng University of Science and Technology, which prides itself on being a strong school in science and engineering, very jealous.

Four hours later, after the Nobel Prize in Physics was announced, mainstream media first began reporting the news of Wright's winning the prize on Twitter.

Then there are the domestic self-media.

In order to grab the attention, self-media usually publish very short content for the first time:
"The God of Light alone wins the 2026 Nobel Prize in Physics"

Mainstream media outlets flocked to the event, publishing long articles that had been prepared in advance.

Because the domestic mainstream media had already prepared the manuscript.

In 24, there were rumors that Chen Yuanguang was going to win the Nobel Prize.

Although we didn't win in the end, everyone had finished writing the manuscript.

Later, I kept the manuscript, and I never knew when it might come in handy.

After this announcement, we only need to adjust some details before we can release it.

Therefore, the speed at which they post is not slow at all.

"According to the latest news from the Nobel Prize official website, the 2 Nobel Prize in Physics was announced at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm, Sweden at 11:45 a.m. local time on the 2026nd. The award was exclusively given to Chen Yuanguang, a famous Chinese scientist. According to reports, Chen Yuanguang won the award for inventing room-temperature superconductors, and the award will be presented to him by Eva Olsson, chairman of the Nobel Prize in Physics Selection Committee.

According to statistics, since 1901, the Nobel Prize in Physics has only been won by one person 47 times. The last time a single person won the award was in 1992, 34 years ago by French scientist Charpak.

This is also the youngest Nobel Prize winner since the 21st century, only three years older than the youngest Nobel Prize winner in history, William Lawrence Bragg.

This is what mainstream media is like. They like to find all kinds of data to enrich their content.

In fact, age and exclusivity are not that important at all.

The results are far more important than these data.

"Yuan Guang, I was right. Jiangda sent me a WeChat message, saying that they sincerely invite you to return to your alma mater and give a Luojia Lecture to your juniors.

It wasn’t Director Zhang, but the principal who sent me the WeChat message himself.” Lin Jia glanced at his phone.

Director Zhang refers to the director of the Resource Development Office under the Alumni Affairs and Development Liaison Office of Jiangnan University. Previously, he was responsible for directly coordinating specific matters with Lin Jia.

"Let's go ahead, but it may not be convenient recently. Let's talk about the specific time later." Chen Yuanguang still has feelings for Jiang Da.

The news spread very quickly, and by the evening, all media were reporting the news.

Self-media is much better at this than traditional media, and they know better what readers want to see.

"Chen Yuanguang won the Nobel Prize in Physics at the age of 28.

I looked online and everyone was expressing their congratulations, but there didn't seem to be much surprise.

It was as if this was supposed to happen.

It's like a long TV series has finally come to an end, and people's expectations have been exhausted in the process. No matter how exciting the TV series was and how much we looked forward to it in the past, at this point in time, the ending itself is no longer important.

What’s important is the joy it brings us in the process.

Similarly, winning the Nobel Prize at the age of 28 is definitely early, even compared with those top geniuses in history.

In terms of achievements, room-temperature superconductivity, as an achievement that won the Nobel Prize, can definitely be ranked in the top ten, or even the top five, among all Nobel Prize achievements, and this is already a very humble statement.

Bohr's discovery of atomic spectrum, Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, Dirac's Dirac equation, Schrödinger's cat, de Broglie's matter wave theory. As a person who stands at the foot of the mountain and looks up at the masters in the field of physics, I believe that the achievements of the God of Light are definitely comparable to these achievements.

As for Newton and Einstein, I think that if the God of Light can summarize the theories behind room-temperature superconductivity, he can even be compared with these two true gods.

Maybe the God of Light has already figured it out, but it cannot be made public for confidentiality purposes. After all, when I attend various academic conferences related to condensed matter physics, everyone will complain about it in private.

What are you complaining about? You are complaining that there are too many things hidden in the paper about room-temperature superconductivity by Guangshen, which makes people feel like they are looking at flowers in the fog. They think that Guangshen must have seen the deeper principles behind it, so even if there is a paper, only the University of Tokyo can create room-temperature superconductors.

Top physicists in Europe and the United States have publicly called on Guangshen more than once to publish more papers to discuss his views on room-temperature superconductivity. The editor-in-chief of Nature even said in an interview that if Guangshen is willing, Nature will publish as many papers as he writes, and it would be no problem for every article to be on the front page of Nature.

For a whole year, Wright's name was the only one on the front page of Nature.

These are the original words of Philip, editor-in-chief of Nature.

Even if we put aside the impact of room-temperature superconductivity on the real world, just talking about its status in the academic field, Philip's original words are enough to feel its importance from a theoretical level.

In this era, this is definitely a groundbreaking achievement.

I learned the news on the train from London to Manchester. I felt as calm as everyone else. The old white man next to me congratulated me.

I was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the other party was congratulating me for. That was until he showed me his phone screen, which was a report about the Nobel Prize from the Times, with a large portrait of the God of Light that Nicholas had painted as an accompanying picture.

I would like to add that Nicholas is the art director of the Nobel Prize Studio and specializes in painting portraits of Nobel Prize winners. Therefore, he usually knows the Nobel Prize winners in advance.

It elaborates on Wright's achievements in great detail. I took a quick look at it and found some weird parts. The general idea is that although Wright had many outstanding scientific achievements, he did not embody the spirit of science without borders at all, and did not use scientific and technological development to benefit people all over the world.

After watching it, I became very curious, so I started talking about this topic with the old white guy sitting next to me.

The people of the University of Tokyo have gradually become desensitized to the God of Light. It's not that everyone doesn't admire the God of Light, but given how great the achievements of the God of Light are, everyone feels that it's not surprising that he is the God of Light.

If it were someone else, everyone would praise them even if they just won a prize in a competition, but when Guangshen won the Nobel Prize, everyone seemed to take it for granted.

So I was curious about how people abroad view the God of Light, so I talked to him about this.

His answer was a treasure, a symbol of East Timor's rising national fortune. In the past, England had produced countless famous scientists before World War II, including top scientists such as Newton, Maxwell, and Faraday.

Of course, at this time when Scotland is demanding to leave the Commonwealth, Maxwell, who was born in Edinburgh, cannot necessarily be considered English.

This is getting off topic. Anyway, the other party believes that it is precisely because of the booming development of the University of Tokyo that people like Wright were able to emerge.

I am still surprised to hear expressions like "national destiny" from foreigners. The education we received emphasized the people's historical perspective, not the heroic historical perspective.

After I roughly explained the difference between the two and how the people of the University of Tokyo have gradually become accustomed to Wright's existence, the other party said that this is because we have Wright, and when we no longer have a giant of this level, we will naturally feel lost.

After I sorted out my thoughts, I watched the game in Manchester and was on my way back to London from Manchester. Along the way, various domestic and foreign apps on my phone were popping up notifications to me like crazy.

'Wright wins Nobel Prize in Physics' This is the Washington Daily News.

'Why didn't India produce a scientist like Wright?' This is a question on Quora, where Indian users like to answer questions like this one that use the achievements of the University of Tokyo to reflect on India's current situation.

'Congratulations to the God of Light' This is Weibo, and this is the title used on domestic social media.

'How do you evaluate the God of Light winning the Nobel Prize in Physics' This is Zhihu.

Along the way, I was thinking about what the world would be like without the God of Light.

Will the East still have the advantage it has now? Does Washington really think the world can accommodate the East and the West?
Will the external geopolitical threats to the University of Tokyo be reduced to an unprecedented level?

Does Todai have excess financial resources to provide universal welfare?

As I thought about this series of questions, I found it hard to imagine what the East China Conference would be like without the God of Light.

When I think of this, I feel lucky to be born in this era with Guang Shen. I can personally witness a group of Dongda scientists represented by Guang Shen leading Dongda to achieve industrial upgrading.

When I opened WeChat and looked through my former classmates’ groups, except for some groups where no one had chatted for years, almost all the groups were talking about this matter.

There were only positive comments, expressing dissatisfaction with the Western evaluation system. I realized that the general public is very clear about the importance of the God of Light.

It's just that I have become numb.

This reminds me of what Guang Shen said on TV two years ago, that he would bring everyone the next golden age. I think this Nobel Prize is probably a good footnote to this process. "
