Chapter 808: About to attend the Nobel Prize Award Ceremony

Anyone who pays attention to the Nobel Prize knows that the Nobel Prize award ceremony is held every year on the afternoon of December 10th at the Stockholm City Hall in Sweden. The choice of this date naturally has a special meaning - Nobel Prize

He passed away at 4:30 pm on December 10, 1896. This fixed award ceremony time is chosen every year to commemorate this scientist who made significant contributions to human progress and civilization.

However, the awards ceremony held at the Stockholm City Hall in Sweden only awards the Nobel Prize in Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature and Economics. The Swedish Nobel Committee invites the King to issue a Nobel Prize certificate to each winner.

, medals and prizes.

The Nobel Peace Prize is an exception. It is not awarded in Sweden, but is awarded by the Norwegian Nobel Committee at the invitation of the King of Norway at the Oslo City Hall, also on the afternoon of December 10.

The inconsistency between the two locations caused a quarrel between the Nobel Committee of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and the Norwegian Nobel Committee over the holding of the award ceremony this year.

After all, this is the first time that two scientists have won the Nobel Prize in Physics and the Peace Prize.

The Nobel Committee of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and the Norwegian Nobel Committee were each responsible for the selection, and each kept the results secret. It was not until October 4 that the Swedish Nobel Committee took the lead in announcing that Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun had won the Nobel Prize in Physics. Originally,

The Norwegian Nobel Committee, which had completed the entire voting and selection process, decided after emergency deliberations to abide by the results of the voting and award the Peace Prize to Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun as planned.

Then it was time for the two Nobel committees to argue. They had a heated argument over which award ceremony Ning Qingyun and Qin Ke should attend.

After all, the original award ceremony locations in the two countries are too far apart. Even by plane it takes two and a half hours. It is obviously unrealistic for two Nobel Prize winners to travel back and forth in order to attend the award ceremony. But if they want to

The two laureates giving up any award ceremony is another result that neither Nobel committee wants to see.

Later, several respected old men who had been judges for many years came to mediate and said that Mr. Nobel entrusted the selection of the Peace Prize to Norway because he hoped that Sweden and Norway could maintain peace and stop quarreling over this matter.

In the end, the Swedish Nobel Committee and the Norwegian Nobel Committee each took a step back. The Swedish King lowered his stance and invited the Norwegian King and Queen to pay a goodwill visit to Stockholm on December 10.

This also gave an explanation to the Norwegian people - because the king and queen were visiting abroad, the Nobel Peace Prize could not be awarded at the Oslo City Hall, and the awarding venue could only be moved to a large hall opened by a Norwegian nobleman in Stockholm "as a matter of urgency".

Inside the hotel.

This hotel is only a 15-minute drive from Stockholm City Hall, making it convenient for Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun to travel to different venues.

In return for the concession of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, the Swedish Nobel Committee agreed to postpone the awarding time from the original 16:00 to 17:00, so that the two Nobel Peace Prize winners could receive the award from the King of Norway at 16:00

After receiving the Nobel Peace Medal and having cordial talks, we calmly drove back to Stockholm City Hall to attend the Nobel Prize in Physics award ceremony.

One gave in on time, the other on location. For the first time in history, the conflict caused by two great scientists winning the Nobel Prize in Physics and the Nobel Peace Prize at the same time was finally resolved successfully.

However, after this incident, the Nobel Committees of Sweden and Norway began to deliberately avoid such "trouble" and refused to make "exceptions" in awarding the prize to scientists of the same class. This also made Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun become

The Nobel Prize is unique in the history of winning the Nobel Prize in Physics and the Nobel Peace Prize in the same session.

Of course, in these discussions between the Swedish and Norwegian Nobel Committees, they did not leave Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun alone to make decisions, and they consulted their opinions in advance. Qin Ke did not want Ning to be pregnant with the baby.

Qingjun flew back and forth in order to receive the award, and made her attitude clear early on.

In the end, Qin Ke's attitude was also a key factor in the Norwegian Nobel Committee's decision to change the award location to Stockholm.



The Nobel Prize has always been the focus of attention every year. The "disputes" behind the award ceremony have attracted even more attention from the media. Various large and small news have been reported serially, making Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, the parties involved, even if they are very low-key, they still continue to pay attention.

They became the focus of global attention, especially after their photo appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, which directly set off a craze for "researching" these two young mathematicians and scientists.

This is the youngest scientist couple ever published in Time Magazine. Together with the aura of double Nobel Prize winners, the two are extremely well-known among ordinary people around the world.

Many writers and self-media people took advantage of this top-level traffic and quickly began to write short essays, such as "Two or three things about Professor Tao Zhexuan and Professor Qin Ke", "The amazing rise of a small-town topic writer", "Hand in hand,

Never Stop - The Scientific Research Path of Academician Xia Guoqin Ke and Academician Ning Qingjun" "Two Great Mathematicians and Three Mathematical Conjectures"...

Countless people watched it with gusto, regardless of whether it was true or false. Photos of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were printed and sold in various ways. Countless parents with children bought them and posted them at home to educate their children at any time...



These external frenzy and disturbances spread back to China from abroad, causing an even greater wave of frenzy.

But fortunately, with the strict protection of Qingmu University, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, who lived in the ivory tower, did not suffer too much from these crazes.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The lives and work of the two are still simple and pure.

On the other hand, Qin Xiaoke's popularity in the school skyrocketed, and he suddenly became a "man of the hour" at Beijing Central Academy of Fine Arts.

Originally, her scores in the cultural subjects of the college entrance examination were ranked among the top ten in the school, which attracted a lot of attention. She was called the "goddess with equal emphasis on wisdom and beauty." This made Qin Xiaoke excited for a long time. When she returned home, she chirped "show off."

"After some research, she found that after all, she looked relatively immature and smaller than her peers. She had been called a "beautiful girl" before, but this was the first time she was called a "goddess."

Then in October, it was discovered that she was Academician Qin's biological sister, and she became the center of attention. Even the professors in the college greeted her with smiles when they saw her, and the college leaders also cared for her.

Plus, she was even more protective. She could choose the position of class president or student union president, but Qin Xiaoke wasn't interested in it.

It can be said that Qin Xiaoke's college time was very beautiful and happy. Apart from not making any sincere best friends, she didn't have many regrets, and there were no short-sighted dandies who dared to provoke her - of course, pursuing her

She still has a lot of boys, whether they are boys from Jingyang Academy of Fine Arts or Qingmu University, there are definitely not a few who launch a love offensive against Qin Xiaoke.

It’s just that Qin Xiaoke doesn’t like anyone, and never dates any boys. After class, he goes back to the villa at Qingmu University, where he either practices painting by himself, walks the dog, or chats with his sister-in-law Ning Qingyun, giving her something to eat.

The little baby tells stories and sings songs, euphemistically called "advance prenatal education".

Qin Ke sometimes wanted to laugh when he saw it, because a baby at such a young age has not even developed its hearing organ...

Compared with Qin Xiaoke's "magnificent" campus life, the lives of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are relatively calm.

Ning Qingyun still practices Eastern Secrets every day, because she hasn't revealed her pregnancy yet. No one knows she is pregnant with her baby for more than two months when walking on the road or standing on the podium.

Ning Qingyun's appearance is as usual, like a young girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, with no trace of time at all, so she is privately envied as the "goddess of frozen age" by students at Qingmu University.

In addition to normal teaching, taking care of students, and doing research, Ning Qingyun's focus is on the two babies in her belly. Every evening, she spends her free time reading parenting books with Tian Jianlan and Qin Xiaoke.

Books, thinking about the scene after the baby is born, sometimes Qin Ke will join in and chat, but not often.

Qin Ke never wanted to tie Ning Qingyun to him, so when he saw her getting along so well with Academician Tian Jianlan and Qin Xiaoke, he was happy to see it happen and hoped that it would become something exclusive for Ning Qingyun.

Social relaxation time.

As for work and scientific research, although Qin Ke did not deliberately increase the intensity of scientific research, he did not slow down either. The mysterious message from the distant universe and the main mission of the system all heralded a catastrophe in the future world. Qin Ke

Of course, Ke will not take it lightly, and he still has to work hard to do what he has to do.

Just to prevent Ning Qingyun from being overtired, Qin Ke took the initiative to take on more scientific research work. Originally, the division of labor between the two was about 6:4, but now it has gradually become 7:3, which is Qin Ke's share of the work.

The workload increased from the original 60% to 70%, while Ning Qingyun's workload dropped to 30%.

Generally speaking, everything is going smoothly. The research in various laboratories under the two men, whether it is the analysis of the causes of extreme abnormal weather across the country and future deductions, the development of second-generation topological quantum superconducting materials, the re-optimization of perfect desert sweet potatoes, or

The research and development of chip materials under the guidance of "Mr. Q" and the research on seawater desalination in Yuanzhou are all in full swing.

Each topic has capable scientific research managers, so ordinary problems no longer require Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun to personally take action. Only when encountering difficult problems that cannot be solved by the following researchers, the two of them need to intervene and provide guidance.

Usually, the two of them mainly guide experimental plans and revise research routes.

Only the mathematics aspect requires two people to do it themselves. Yang-Mills's "mass gap problem" is still slowly advancing. This type of millennium problem is indeed very difficult, even though Qin Ke is now a "grandmaster" in mathematics and physics.

"If we have the strength, it is not easy to completely solve the "quality gap problem".

Now Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are constantly trying various methods to launch an attack. Although they still haven't found a clear idea, constant trial and error has narrowed the most likely direction of success.

There is nothing to worry about when it comes to tutoring graduate students. After all, the students who can become their graduate students, whether they are from home or abroad, are all outstanding ones. They are quick in thinking and draw inferences from one case to another, so it is not difficult for Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun to guide them.

What really makes the two of them a little nervous is the twin children who are pregnant with hope for the future.

Being pregnant with twins is indeed difficult. Ning Qingyun's pregnancy symptoms were not obvious at first, but became a bit serious in the eighth week of pregnancy. She would vomit after eating something sweet and greasy, and she couldn't even smell it, and she couldn't even smell it at night.

I couldn't sleep well, so I went to see the most famous old Chinese doctor and prescribed a diet therapy. The three doctors and nurses who lived with me in the villa took good care of me. In addition, Ning Qingyun insisted on practicing the Eastern Secret Code, and she suffered from serious pregnancy problems.

After more than ten days, it slowly disappeared, and she was much happier than other expectant mothers who usually have a single pregnancy for five to six weeks.

Every pregnancy check-up is an even more stressful process for Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, the expectant father and expectant mother, for fear that something will be wrong with their two babies.

Even great scientists like Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, who have experienced many years of experience and have stood on the world stage, will still have their hearts beat faster and nervously hold each other's hands while waiting for the pregnancy test report.

——Qin Ke is very unaccustomed to this feeling of being out of control. Unfortunately, the taboo unknown field of life has too many uncontrollable factors. It is not like mathematics where you can always find the correct answer. Life is more like countless random function collisions.

A rare miracle born later.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Fortunately, the early Tang screening, NT examination, and non-invasive DNA passed all the way. All indicators are very normal, showing that the two babies are developing

Ning Qingyun's belly was growing healthily, which made Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun finally feel relieved, and the elders who cared about them, such as Uncle Yang and his wife, Uncle Chen and his wife, Jiang Weixian,

Tian Jianlan and others breathed a sigh of relief.

After passing these levels, the rest is basically smooth sailing.



Time has arrived at the end of November in a blink of an eye, and the footsteps of autumn have arrived around us. The yellow leaves on campus are all over the sky and covered with the school roads, giving people a sense of incomplete beauty.

As the time for awarding the Nobel Prize is getting closer, Qin and Ke are also making preparations to go abroad.

Their trip abroad has affected the nerves of countless people. As the commander-in-chief of the security personnel, Wei Feng is even more busy. I heard that countless manpower and material resources have been mobilized to ensure that the two of them can go back and forth safely. There is no special plane or car to transport them.

By the way, there are ten full-time accompanying medical staff alone, not to mention the security force behind the scenes.

This exaggerated treatment made Qin Ke both laugh and cry.

Qin Ke joked: "Brother Feng, why don't we two go abroad so as not to waste the country's people and money?"

Wei Feng said hurriedly: "Academician Qin, please stop joking. How many people are now looking forward to you taking back these two very historic medals? This is also related to the cultural confidence of the nation and inspires young people and scientific researchers across the country.

Following your example and joining the scientific community, how can you not accept the award?"

Qin Kele was delighted: "Brother Feng, you have been very busy recently, and you have become more accustomed to talking about these things. You have made great progress. Do you want to pursue an official career after demobilization?"

Wei Feng said helplessly: "I hear similar words dozens of times every day, and almost all of them are memorized... Academician Qin, don't worry, we will do everything possible to ensure your safety and not affect you and your relatives and friends."

Normal social activities abroad.”

Qin Ke also understood the difficulty of Wei Feng's responsibilities, especially when he thought that the 56 places for himself and Ning Qingyun's family and friends group had indeed caused a lot of trouble for Wei Feng, so he immediately let him make arrangements.

Yes, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have a total of 56 places in the family and friends group.

According to convention, Nobel Prize winners can take 14 relatives and friends abroad to attend the awards night, and food and accommodation are included, and travel expenses are reimbursed. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were specially allowed to go abroad because they won two Nobel Prizes at the same time.

The number of places in the family and friends group has doubled, so that the original 28 places for Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have been directly changed to 56 places.

56 places may not seem like a lot, but it is not an easy task to find all 56 people and collect the "wool" of the Swedish and Norwegian Nobel committees.
