Chapter 894: First candidate

Stony Brook University, Long Island, New York.
Stony Brook University, also known as "Stony Brook University of New York", is located on Long Island, a scenic suburb of New York City. It is a well-known public research university in the United States. It enjoys a high academic reputation worldwide and ranks among public universities in the United States. , Second only to the University of California, Berkeley, enjoys the reputation of "Public Ivy". Since the establishment of the school in 1957, it has cultivated many famous people, including 3 Nobel Prize winners, 1 Turing Prize winner and 1 Triple Crown of Fields Medal, Wolf Prize and Abel Prize.
By the way, the current head of the "MIPS" company under Tan Zhenhua, Dr. Hennessy, the inventor of MIPSCPU, is also an alumnus of this school.
The first candidate Dr. Zhenyin Yang, who Tan Zhenhua came to meet today, has been teaching at this school for 22 years. He is not only the tenured professor of the school, the Albert Einstein Chair Professor and the director of the Institute of Theoretical Physics. , Is one of the three Nobel Prize winners in school history.
"Zhenhua, good name, good meaning!" The old man who was over sixty years old looked at him with a smile and said, "But, how did you think of looking for me?"
Such a question was of course in the preparations of Tan Zhenhua. He replied without hesitation: "Professor Yang, it is true that I am planning to establish an advanced laboratory in the United States. This laboratory will be engaged in basic physics, semiconductors, and electronics. Research in areas such as, communications, etc., and I have thought about it, you are the person in charge of this laboratory."
After listening, Yang Zhenyin nodded slightly, and then asked: "Why me?"
Tan Zhenhua replied without hesitation: "Because you are the first of the three to go back to China."
Yang Zhenyin nodded again.
Of course he knew which three people Tan Zhenhua was talking about.
If you talk about the most prestigious Chinese in the natural sciences of the United States, it is of course the Nobel Prize winners Yang, Li, and Ding. Of course, there is one more qualified person, which is mentioned above. Mr. Wu Jianxiong, who has participated in the "Manhattan Project" and is known as "Madam Curie of the East", "First Lady of Physics", and the first female president in the history of "American Physical Society APS", Unfortunately, she missed the Nobel Prize.
In other words, if Tan Zhenhua wants to find a Chinese person who can convince the public to be the head of the advanced science laboratory called "Matrix" he intends to establish, his first choice must be one of these four.
But if another condition is added, Yang Zhenyin will undoubtedly become the first candidate.
Because among these four people, if anyone has the deepest feelings for China, Yang Zhenyin feels that it is him.
This is not to say that the other three don't care about their homeland. It's just that in Yang Zhenyin's opinion, those three have too many things about their mothers and mothers.
We must know that the first time Dr. Yang returned to New China, Huami had not yet formally established diplomatic relations, but the relationship between the two countries had just loosened in 1971. He was the first person to visit China by a well-known scholar of U.S. nationality!
And that time when he returned to China, he also did a little thing that he was always proud of-he had a lifelong friend and schoolboy who was a close friend of the genius, who was being persecuted and imprisoned in that special age. Dr. Yang used his international reputation to list this close friend as the first person he would like to meet in China.
Therefore, Zhou Shoufu took this opportunity to not only recall his close friend to the capital, but also helped a large number of experts out of the predicament.
His close friend is named Deng Jiaxian, the pioneer and founder of China's nuclear weapons research and development, and the "two bombs", ranked first.
After returning to the U.S. after returning from this visit, he used his influence to give speeches in many cities, which influenced a group of U.S. people to start a friendly attitude towards China; at the same time, under the influence of his demonstration, A large number of Chinese scholars of rice nationality have embarked on a trip to visit their homeland, offering suggestions for science, technology and education in the motherland.
You must know that when Huami's relationship had not been thawed and diplomatic relations had not been formally established at that time, he took considerable risks in doing so, but he believed that this was his duty and responsibility.
After that, he did another major event that had nothing to do with academics, but was even more praised by the Chinese people. In the first half of 1971, he returned to Mi, and at the invitation of Chinese students, he shuttled to various universities in the United States to give lectures. Based on what he saw and heard on the mainland, he showed the indomitable spirit of the Chinese people to the Chinese students studying in Wandao and Xiangjiang who were the overwhelming majority at that time. They infected a group of passionate youths who wanted to serve the country. He then joined with historian He Bingdi. , Mathematician Chen Xingshen joined the vigorous "Preserving Diaoyu" movement initiated by overseas Chinese students and is known as the spiritual mentor of the "Preserving Diaoyu" movement!
In October 1971, he even testified at the "Return to Okinawa Agreement" hearing held by the US-US Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He fully described the fact that "Diaodao" is the territory of China from the perspectives of history, geography and reality, and made important contributions to safeguarding China's territorial integrity!
This is actually an important reason why Tan Zhenhua first circled Yang Zhenyin's name in that list.
And he knows more.
In another time and space, Dr. Zhenyin Yang returned to China to settle in Beijing in 2003, and gave lectures at Huaqing University, where his father had taught and his alma mater himself had been able to teach. On September 13, 2004, At the age of 81, he began to teach general physics to undergraduates at Huaqing University. Regarding this behavior criticized by some as "show-making", he explained: "Many professors are not willing to teach undergraduates, but I think it’s very important to teach undergraduates, and I hope I can bring more people."
This is what he said, and he did the same. Even though he is only teaching undergraduates, he still insists on spending two hours carefully preparing for each class.
For the students who were fortunate enough to listen to his lectures, they were lucky because they had the opportunity to have close exchanges with the most famous scholars in the world. Such exchanges may not have any practical academic value, but For these young people, it undoubtedly gave them a more active motivation to explore the origin of this world.
Just like the encouragement he received when he was 30 years old because he was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to meet Einstein.
Tan Zhenhua also knows that this old man with a great reputation in the international academic circle gave up his American citizenship in 2017 when he returned from his rebirth and completely restored his honorable status as a descendant of the Chinese Emperor and the Chinese Emperor!
After a long time, Yang Zhenyin, who had obviously been well thought out, spoke again: "Zhenhua, you promise me one condition. Then help me find two people, and I will promise you."
