Chapter 960: Do you have to rush to be nominated for academician?


    ?During the time when Chang Haonan was concentrating on the variational level set method, a major event happened in the Chinese scientific research circle.


    The list of new academicians for 2001 has been officially released.


    This is the first time that China has synchronized the academician selection process of the two academies in a systematic and standardized manner.


    Of course, considering that the Chinese Academy of Engineering was only established in 1993, it has not been ten years old yet. Therefore, in order to fill up the quota, the number of additional candidates every year must be slightly higher than next door.


    For example, this year, there are 56 people in the Academy of Sciences and 81 people in the Academy of Engineering.


    137 new academicians may seem like a lot, but after being spread among universities and scientific research institutions across the country...


    ?That is indeed pitiful.


    You should know that even after this co-optation, the total number of academicians of the two academies is still only 653 and 616 respectively.


    ?There are many people here who have long withdrawn from the front line of scientific research and only exist as benchmarks and monuments.


    ?Therefore, if any school or unit can produce an academician, it will not only add glory to one''s appearance, but also actually change one''s destiny.


    Correspondingly, if there are no academicians, or new academicians cannot be elected for a long time, or even if the succession of academicians fails, and the number of academicians decreases instead of increasing, it will inevitably be a dwarf in front of peers.


    The Aviation Power Group is currently in such a situation.


    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? There is not even a single academician in the official archives of such a large central enterprise.


    In fact, it stands to reason that Liu Zhenxiang, as the former director of Institute 624, should be considered a member of the Aviation Power Group.


    However, after the completion of the SB101 high-altitude platform, due to a certain person''s relationship, he transferred his organizational relationship back to Beijing Hang University and became a professor.


    At that time, it was still the period of the Aviation Industry Corporation. Although the 624th Institute was definitely not willing to do so, for the senior leaders, considering Liu Zhenxiang’s own wishes and the fact that there was no shortage of academicians in the entire aviation industry system, they finally gave him the opportunity. Let go.


    ? In the end, it didn’t matter if the two parties separated. A few years later, the Aerospace Power Group was dumbfounded.


    In the past, all the academicians of the head office were from the aviation industry, and I didn’t get involved in any of them.


    At this time, Liu Zhenxiang has almost brought out the first batch of doctors, and he wants to transfer their files back to Institute 624...


    How about playing?


    It is simply unrealistic.


    Of course, at the beginning of the century, it was not uncommon to have dual or even multiple academician appointments (that is, one academician held formal positions in several units at the same time).


    But the Aviation Power Group cannot afford to lose this person.


    Would rather not have it.


    In fact, from this perspective, Chang Haonan himself dug a hole for his new owner.


    But no matter what, the problem always has to be solved.


    ?Then the only way left is to co-opt.


    The result...


    Needless to say, that time in 1999 was not long after the establishment of the head office and the organizational situation had just stabilized, and no nomination was even mentioned.


    This year, although Yan Zhongcheng and Jiang Hefu were shortlisted, they still failed to make it to the end.


    The reasons for this are of course more complicated.


    On the one hand, it is impossible for any circle to be without human feelings and sophistication.


    Objectively speaking, it is true that a big academician gives birth to a small academician.


    Institutions that do not have academicians originally will be at a disadvantage.


    On the other hand, the situation of the Aerospace Power Group is indeed a bit embarrassing.


    The establishment time is too short.


    Huaxia''s aviation development level has indeed made great progress in recent years, but after all, the previous achievements were accumulated during the head office period.


    After the establishment of the new group, there is indeed no model that has been completely settled and influential enough.


    You can’t use the Turbojet 6D to make the selection, right?


    As for Chang Haonan’s proof of Poincaré’s conjecture…


    Sorry, that result was published by Beijing Hang University.


    The reason why the other party did not nominate Chang Haonan this time is obviously to wait until next year''s International Congress of Mathematicians has awarded all the prizes that should be awarded, and then nominate again in 2003.


    By then Chang Haonan has the qualifications, the honor is strong enough, and the age is not too young. The success of the attack can be 100% guaranteed.


    Originally, this was almost a clear sign, and everyone was waiting for it tacitly.


    However, for the Aerospace Power Group, the situation is more embarrassing.


    ??If their first academician is actually nominated by someone else...


    ?Well, let’s not say it’s embarrassing, at least it’s a little short of glorious.


    It is also easy to chill the people below.


    So, we have to do something no matter what.


    ? Lin Zuoming, for this reason, approached General Manager Zhu Linyu.


    “Mr. Zhu, if we continue step by step, I’m afraid our group won’t be able to successfully nominate an academician within 6-8 years.”


    ?There were no outsiders in the office, so the former didn’t say anything formal, but went straight to the point:


    “So I think that the next time, that is, the co-election in 2003, we need to recommend Comrade Haonan as a candidate.”


    Facing this request, Zhu Linyu’s first reaction was confusion:


    "Let''s talk behind closed doors. Xiao Chang''s academician quota in 2003...isn''t said to be a certainty, it''s almost certain, right?"


    “Even if we recommend, it will only be ranked behind Beijing Hang University, and there will still be no actual effect?” Joint recommendation is of course feasible, but only the first recommending unit/recommender will be given special attention.


    In fact, Zhu Linyu thought about recommending Chang Haonan this year, but the chief engineer of the turbojet 14 and QC130 is Yan Zhongcheng after all. Although the turbofan 10 is the top priority, it has not yet completed the final production and finalization process. .


    So I finally chose the latter.


    As for Jiang Hefu... he just ran with him.


    Unless Liu Zhenxiang passed away and left no direct disciples in Jinghang, it was destined not to be his turn.


    In fact, when the group was first established, Zhu Linyu was not too anxious.


    Logically speaking, as long as the research and development of the Turbofan 10 project is completed, it would be logical to recommend Chang Haonan.


    Who would have thought that he quietly worked out a ruthless job that shocked the world of mathematics, so much so that he even covered up his achievements in the field of aviation development.


    However, since Lin Zuoming made this special trip, he had naturally considered these issues.


    After hearing Zhu Linyu’s rhetorical question, he couldn’t help but smile:


    “If I am recommended to the Academy of Sciences, the priority will definitely be lower than that of Beijing Hang University.”


    At this point, he leaned forward slightly with his upper body, stretched out **** and tapped the table:


    “But Mr. Zhu, what if...we recommend him to the Academy of Engineering?”


    Zhu Linyu''s eyes instantly narrowed, with a surprised expression on his face.


    But it is fleeting.


    Although he did not give a specific response, it is obvious that this is a very attractive proposal.


    ?Seeing the leader''s interested attitude, Lin Zuoming felt relieved and quickly struck while the iron was hot:


    "According to the current progress, no matter how much excess is left, the turbofan 10 will definitely be produced in the first half of next year. This matter is not only in the aviation field, but also in the entire Chinese manufacturing industry. It is a milestone level event. By then Don’t say you can’t be elected, even if the voting result is not unanimous, there is a shady secret..."


    ?Zhu Linyu quickly raised his hand to interrupt:


    “Of course what you said is correct, but...”


    For a moment, he didn''t know what to say.


    In fact, what Lin Zuoming said was exactly what Zhu Linyu thought at the time.


    But now anyone who knows something about the inside story has almost regarded Chang Haonan as a half-step academician of the Department of Mathematics and Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.


    If we continue to push people to the Engineering Academy, it seems that there will be no results.


    In fact, Lin Zuoming did not need him to explain too clearly:


    “Mr. Zhu, are you worried about the Department of Mathematical Physics?”


    “Don’t you know that…”


    ?Zhu Linyu nodded helplessly.


    Even though the two academies are tied, even from the perspective of disciplinary contempt, the status of the Academy of Sciences is still slightly higher than that of the Academy of Engineering.


    It is hard to believe that a person who is almost certain to become an academician of the Academy of Sciences would take the initiative to choose the Academy of Engineering.


    However, Lin Zuoming almost completely let himself go:


    “That doesn’t matter, can’t we just ask them to co-opt Comrade Haonan at the same time?”


    With one sentence, Zhu Linyu’s brain was completely shut down.


    After a few minutes, I finally came back to my senses from the confusion in my mind:


    “It’s not you who will wait...”


    He frowned slightly:


    “It is true that there are 40 double academicians in our country, but that was when the Academy of Engineering was established. In order to increase the influence and persuasiveness of this new institution, senior academic seniors were specially found to join the Academy of Engineering.”


    "In other words, it is not that they need the title of the Academy of Engineering to prove their contribution, but that the Academy of Engineering needs to prove that it is not a grassroots team by granting them the title... And in principle, except for the 94-95 batch, those who have been elected as academicians of the Academy of Sciences or the Academy of Engineering , then he will no longer participate in the election of another house..."


    Unexpectedly, Lin Zuoming clapped his hands excitedly:


    "Yes!"


    "You see, although Comrade Haonan''s qualifications are not sufficient, but only looking at his contributions, which are both theoretical and applied, and are at the forefront of the country and even the world, this is not the same as those of the old predecessors. The nature is the same. If the Academy of Engineering doesn’t give him a title, how can he convince the public? "


    "In addition, you also said that ''those who have been elected as academicians of the Academy of Sciences or the Academy of Engineering'' cannot participate in the selection of the other academy. However, as long as Comrade Haonan participated in the co-election of both parties in 2003 and was elected at the same time, he would not trigger the This is a matter of principle..."


    …”


    Obviously, Lin Zuoming’s proposal is taking advantage of a loophole.


    But objectively speaking, it is true that Chang Haonan''s situation is so unfavorable that he is able to take advantage of this loophole.


    ??Zhu Linyu put his arms on the table, crossed his hands to cover the side of his face, and lowered his head slightly so that people could not see his expression clearly.


    On the surface, it seems to be judging the success rate of this plan.


    But only he knew in his heart that he had actually been convinced.


    Just hope that I can agree with you and be more reserved.


    After all, as the leader of the unit, it may not be a good phenomenon to just listen to what others say.


    “If that’s the case.”


    After a while, Zhu Linyu finally spoke again:


    “Then we will start from next year to help Xiao Chang prepare for this.”


    “For example…well…”


    Speaking of this, he thought for a moment:


    “It’s a pity that the application for this year’s National Science and Technology Award has already passed.”


    “Next year, next year you can apply for him for the newly established highest science and technology award, in the name of Turbofan 10!”
