Chapter 2315: The Nobel Prize
The person who came was a staff member of the school, and there was a foreigner behind him. The foreigner showed a complicated expression, surprised and unwilling. After seeing Shen Long, he took off his hat and saluted, "Hi Mr. Bai, I am Larsson, Cultural Counselor of the Swedish Embassy in China, flew over from the accompanying capital to send you a telegram."
After speaking, he looked around, "Is Mr. Wu Lien-teh there? This telegram was sent to both of you at the same time!"
"Mr. Wu is next door, why don't we go there together!" Shen Long stood up and said, in the real world, Wu Lien-teh would have returned to Nanyang after the Battle of Songhu, but in this world, he was pulled over by Shen Long, and now He came to Xi'an with him, and continued to engage in research on epidemic prevention while teaching at the school.
Shen Long had already guessed what the content of the telegram he brought was not too excited, because he deserved it. When he arrived at the office next door, Wu Lien-teh was writing something. After Shen Long entered, he said, "Star Alliance, Sweden I sent telegrams to the two of us, and this is Mr. Larsson, Cultural Counselor of the Swedish Embassy in China."
"Sweden?" Wu Lien-teh became excited immediately, and his words began to tremble. It was October, and he couldn't understand what the telegram from Sweden meant at this time.
"Respected Mr. Bai Jingqi, respected Mr. Wu Lien-teh, I am very honored to have this opportunity to tell you the good news!" Larson solemnly took out the telegram and read it, first in Swedish and then again. Translated into Chinese, "According to the latest selection results of the Nobel Assembly of Karolinska Institutet in Sweden, the 1943 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Scientist was awarded to Mr. Bai Jingqi and Mr. Wu Liande from China in recognition of their outstanding contributions in the prevention and control of plague. We sincerely invite the two to attend the award ceremony at the Stockholm Concert Hall in Sweden on December 10, 1943!"
"Jing Qi, we have won the award! We have finally won the award!" Wu Liande blushed with excitement, and the staff next to him also congratulated him repeatedly. He is also a staff member of the university, so he naturally knows what the Nobel Prize in Medicine means.
"Hey, I thought I wouldn't give it up!" Shen Long was not very excited, and even sarcastically said that in the real world, the German scientist Domark discovered in 1932 that Prontosil can prevent staphylococcus and hemolytic bacteria. Streptococcus infection created a precedent for the development and treatment of infectious diseases by sulfa drugs, and won the Nobel Prize in 1939.
In 1941, Howard Florey, a pathologist at Oxford University, and Chain, a biochemist, separated and purified penicillin, and discovered its curative effect on infectious diseases. Only three years later, they and the discovery of penicillin Fleming won the 1945 Nobel Prize in Medicine.
Shen Long and Wu Lien-teh not only made outstanding contributions to the prevention and control of plague and other epidemic diseases, but also the inventor of sulfonamide and penicillin, which have been in industrial production and practical application for many years. Lori and Chain's winning speed, he should have won the award long ago.
However, it has been delayed until now by the Karolinska Institute in Sweden to award them this award. The reason for this is indeed worth pondering. Shen Long speculates that they may be unwilling to award this award to themselves at the beginning because of the arrogance of white people. , but now the international situation has changed, and the struggle between the anti-government camp and the anti-government camp has entered an advanced stage.
Although Sweden is a neutral country, it will also be affected by world public opinion. Out of consideration for uniting the anti-government camp, they finally couldn't help but present awards to Shen Long and Wu Lien-teh.
"Principal, Mr. Xinglian, congratulations, this is a great event! I will immediately notify all the teachers and students of the school to celebrate!" At this moment, the staff and teachers from the next office came.
Immediately, someone rushed to the school's broadcasting room, and soon the whole school's teachers, students and staff knew the news that Shen Long and Wu Lien-teh had won this year's Nobel Prize in Medicine.
"What kind of award is this?" Most people were stunned, not knowing what it meant.
"Don't you read the "Chinese Medical Journal"? The Nobel Prize in Medicine is the highest award in the global medical field. The Chinese Medical Association Award only recognizes our Chinese medical workers, while the Nobel Prize in Medicine is for scientists from all over the world. Yes! To receive this award shows that Principal Bai and Mr. Wu have made achievements that are greatly admired by foreigners!" A student popularized to the people around him.
"So Principal Bai and Mr. Wu won those foreigners? No. 1 in the world?" Another student understood the award in his own way.
"There is no first in literature, but President Bai and Mr. Wu's research in the field of plague prevention and control is indeed far superior to other scientists! Every year, countless scientists look forward to winning the Nobel Prize. If President Bai and Mr. Wu can win this award, it is certain You have won many foreigners!" Even in later generations, when Tu Youyou won the Nobel Prize, it caused a huge repercussion in China and greatly boosted the morale of the nation, let alone in this era? The students were very excited.
Some people even got firecrackers from there, set them off in the school square, and then sang the school song to celebrate this scene destined to be recorded in history.
The noise outside made the teachers and students in the classroom unable to concentrate on listening to the lecture, but the strict teacher in the past did not have any dissatisfaction, and simply closed the textbook, "Forget it, this lesson is over here, let's celebrate together! This is The first world science award that China has won!"
The news quickly spread outside, and the people around did not understand what the Nobel Prize meant. However, Shen Long often brought his students to the people around him for free consultations. Although he didn't know what happened, it should be Principal Bai and Wu Mr. met something good, so they also came to congratulate.
Then representatives from the government and celebrities from Shaanxi came to congratulate him one after another. Of course, representatives from the Xi'an Office of the Eighth Route Army were also indispensable. Now that they knew about it, Bai Jingye would know about it soon.
"Haha, President Bai and Mr. Wu are the first scholars in China to win the Nobel Prize, and they are also the third Asians to win the Nobel Prize after Tagore and Raman in India, so the two are not only the light of the Chinese, It is also the light of Asia! Today must be a good celebration! President Bai, Mr. Wu, let’s go to Defachang to have a dumpling banquet!” .
