Chapter 112 Person of the Year Awards!
A dance of "burning youth" ignited the atmosphere of the audience. After bowing deeply to all the teachers and students, the ladies and sisters of the Academy of Arts exited gracefully under the guidance of the melody.
The red curtain opened, and a line of domineering and majestic calligraphy was printed in the center of the big screen.
[Sincere and majestic, encourage learning and practice. 】
That is the school motto of Jinling University.
Under the school motto, there is the Great Wall, which is majestic for thousands of miles, and the red flag fluttering in the wind.
The first person to speak on stage was an old man wearing glasses.
His figure looks a little thin, but his straight waist is as straight as a flagpole.
Lu Zhou had only met this boss a few times, but he was deeply impressed.
He is none other than the president of Jinling University, academician Xu Jianxu!
Before becoming the principal, he was an academician of the Information Technology Department of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He has undertaken more than 20 projects such as the National 973 Major Basic Research Program and the National 863 Program, and has made great contributions to Huaguo's information technology and network security.
Principal Xu's speech is very scientific research personnel style, what is what, there is no empty words that make people drowsy. In just five minutes, everything that should be summarized has been explained clearly.
With the last thank you, the audience burst into warm applause.
Standing behind the scenes, Lu Zhou was wearing a suit, holding a speech script in his hands, his palms were slightly sweaty.
There were at least 2,000 people sitting in the audience, not only undergraduates from various colleges, but also graduate students and even doctoral students, as well as leaders at all levels of the college and school. There were even cameras from Jinling TV Station and Suzhou TV Station next to the venue, broadcasting the award ceremony live.
Standing beside him with his hands behind his back, Professor Tang asked with a smile, "Are you nervous?"
Lu Zhou coughed lightly: "It's okay."
Professor Tang said with a smile: "It's okay, there are still many opportunities for you to give reports on stage in the future. If you seize this kind of exercise opportunity, it will be a preview, which will be good for your future development."
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and said seriously, "I see."
The awards are divided into three parts. First, the introducer (mentor) speaks, then the winners speak, and finally the awards and group photos.
Seeing that the principal had finished speaking, the host announced the start of the next session.
On the big screen in the center of the stage, a paragraph of text was presented in the form of PPT, summarizing the honor of the winners.
[Lu Zhou, male, Class 1 of 2013 Mathematics Department. Published a total of 13 SCI journals, covering the fields of mathematics, computer science, and computational materials, and used innovative methods to solve the world-class mathematical problem "Zhou's Conjecture". He was invited to participate in the Princeton Mathematics Academic Exchange Conference in February 2015 and the 2014 National Mathematics Conference The winner of the "Higher Education Society Cup" of the undergraduate group of the modeling competition, and the founder of the college student entrepreneurship project "Campus Assistant". 】
Looking at the lines of text on the screen, the audience in the audience murmured and marveled.
Take any one of these alone, it is enough for ordinary people to boast for a lifetime.
Seeing his great achievements being displayed in front of everyone for his juniors and seniors to look up to, Lu Zhou, standing behind the scenes, still felt a little dark in his heart.
The only fly in the ointment is that there is no photo next to these glory.
It would be even more perfect if he could show his talent and handsomeness in front of all the teachers and students in the school!
Professor Tang stepped onto the stage, and the host respectfully helped him straighten the microphone.
In the venue, it gradually became quiet.
I saw this academic leader coughed lightly, and spoke slowly in a tone different from his usual class.
"If I had to find the one who impressed me the most among all the students I have taught in the past thirty years, it would probably be Lu Zhou."
"A paper on functional analysis caught the attention of the Courant Institute of Mathematics in New York, a paper provided new ideas for the field of computational materials, and the birth of Zhou's theorem... I feel that if I continue to talk, it may be I'm retelling the content on the PPT."
After pausing for a moment, Professor Tang smiled kindly and continued: "Time is limited, so I won't go into details one by one. If I make a fair evaluation, his scientific research achievements have surpassed most of the master's students and even doctoral students." level. The most commendable thing is that he has matured enough to find and solve topics that interest him.”
"And he who did this was only twenty years old."
"There is a long way to go, and there are still many challenges ahead. Whether it is focusing on using mathematical tools to solve practical problems, or challenging the Fields Medal. I believe that he will definitely have a place in the hall of mathematics in the future. "
"thanks."
clap clap clap -
There was thunderous applause from the audience.
Amidst the applause, Professor Tang smiled kindly, gave the microphone to Lu Zhou who was on stage, said "Come on" next to him, put his hands behind his back, and walked behind the stage.
Looking at the faces of the same age as me under the stage, and those pairs of eyes staring at me.
Thinking back to the sweat I have put in for the past six months...
Thinking back to the countless days and nights of fighting...
Taking a deep breath, Lu Zhou suppressed his heart that was about to jump out of his chest.
Facing the microphone, he spoke in a calm and excited voice.
"Thank you Jinda University for giving me this opportunity to stand here, and I am also very grateful to all the students who gave me this opportunity to speak. Of course, I am most grateful to my parents who raised me, and all the teachers who preached and taught me ..."
"Functional analysis is my main direction. My first thesis was inspired by Professor Tang. In Professor Li Rongen's research team, I have cultivated my scientific research thinking of using mathematical tools to solve practical problems. For me It was a valuable experience…”
"As for the research on the distribution of Mersenne prime numbers and the proof of Zhou's conjecture, I prefer to describe it as an accident. It's like many sudden inspirations, but I may have caught it..."
"As for the campus assistant, the credit does not belong to me alone, but the strength of the team..."
From academics to entrepreneurship, from scientific research thinking to team spirit. Lu Zhou told his summary of his college life in the past six months, using concise language, incorporating sincere feelings, and combining the actual situation, from beginning to end.
It is true that my own success has elements of luck, systematic help, and many other reasons.
But that doesn't mean your efforts and dedication are meaningless.
Even, the latter is the key.
Even without the assistance of the system, if the former self could calm down and focus as much as he does now, he might not have the opportunity to stand on this podium.
And those achievements may not be impossible to obtain.
It's just that all of this will definitely not come so fast, nor will it be so smooth. It may take ten or twenty years, or even longer time to sharpen. Maybe as the perseverance fades away, you will disappear in the crowd, just like most people who have tried hard but failed...
The people in the audience were listening very carefully, especially those juniors who had just entered the campus less than half a year ago and stayed until now after the exam. They even took out their small notebooks and were meticulous Remember every word he said.
Guessing that the time was approaching, Lu Zhou took a deep breath and restrained the revealing of his true feelings.
"...Finally, please allow me to quote our school motto as a concluding remark."
"Sincere and majestic, encourage learning and practice."
"Wish to encourage you all!"
"thanks!"
After a short silence...
The applause was like pattering raindrops, which gradually turned into torrential rain.
And Lu Zhou standing on the podium was like being in the rain.
"Papa papa—!"
"Papa papa—!"
Facing the thunderous applause of the auditorium, Lu Zhou bowed slightly, nodded to the host, and then walked behind the scenes.
