Chapter 46 Brain Drain and Kunlun Ask!

Nietzsche once said that when you stare at the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you.

After hearing what Gaoyuan said, Levi couldn't help but have a cold war. The young man in front of him seemed to be a bottomless pool. On one side was the vitality and sunshine of the young man, and on the other side was the coldness and firmness of the warrior.

Faced with the temptation given by the opposite side of the Pacific Ocean, the plateau was unmoved and calm. This confidence that came from the bones made Levi feel very uneasy.

However, after a moment of silence, Levi suddenly laughed, laughing very happily.

"Young people should be happy with revenge and be full of energy." Levi shrugged and said, "I know that in China, most people have a sense of family, country and world. This is your tradition for thousands of years. Whenever you reach a dangerous moment, there will always be some people who will stand up and turn the tide."

"Mr. Gaoyuan should be an idealist, familiar with history, and constantly learn and grow from the long history of China, and establish a unique set of values."

The topic suddenly changed, and Levi stared at the plateau's eyes and said, "It's a good thing to have ideals, but you can't forget the reality."

"I agree." Gao Yuan smiled, "The weakness of Chinese people in reality is that they are too naive and too kind. Even watching TV series likes a happy ending. They rarely speculate on the world with the greatest malice."

"This habit is very bad. You need to change it. You must learn to give up your fantasy, learn to face the blood that dripped in the world, and welcome the malice of the whole world."

Levi was speechless, and he opened his briefcase and handed the plateau a thin piece of printing paper.

"Look at this." Levi said: "What Mr. Gao said just now is your ideal, and the piece of paper in front of him is the real reality."

"This is the latest list of Thomson Reuters Group's top 100 materials scientists' Hall of Fame, determined based on the citation rate of research papers published in the past decade, which can be said to be quite authoritative."

"A total of 15 Chinese scientists were selected on the list, but what is even more incredible is that in the past ten years, the top six of the strongest materials scientists have all been Chinese!"

Logically speaking, it should be a kind of honor for Chinese to have produced so many materials elites, but for some reason, the expression on the plateau is as cold as frost.

After a pause, Levi continued, "Please take a closer look at these famous materials scientists all over the world for whom do they work?"

At this point, even though the plateau is calm that is far beyond its peers, its face is gradually becoming cloudy.

The best materials scientist in the past decade.

First place, Petton Yang played for the University of California, Berkeley.

Second place, Yin Yadong, played for the University of California, Riverside.

The third place is Huang Xianyi, who plays at Tsinghua University in Wanwan Province.

Fourth place, Xia Younan, played for Georgia Institute of Technology.

Fifth place, Sun Yugang, works at the Nanophysics Research Center of Argonne National Laboratory.

Sixth place, Wu Yiying, played for Ohio State University.

After a long silence, Gao Yuan's mouth twitched slightly, as if with a bitter smile.

As a person who seeks truth from facts, Gao Yuan knows that this is the current reality, but such a reality is really too tragic.

The six major materials scientists are all Chinese, but except for one in the reactionary province, the rest are all in North America, working for the Anglo-Saxons.

Then look down. Duan Xiangfeng, ranked 20th, is at the University of California, Los Angeles, ranked 49th, is at the University of Houston, Bao Zhenan, ranked 62th, is at the University of Stanford, and Jiang Yeming, ranked 66th, is at the University of MIT...

There are 15 materials scientists on the list, including only Wan Meixiang, ranked 43rd, and Meng Xiangmin, ranked 99th, currently working at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

What a tragic reality is this fifteen people, only two of them stay in the country.

Gao Yuan put this paper on the table, but after thinking about it, he turned out another push pin and nailed it directly to the most conspicuous part of the wall! It seemed as if he wanted to use this paper to remind himself and motivate himself.

Seeing Gaoyuan's action, Levi was surprised and admired with a little bit of admiration. He began to truly understand that the young man in front of him was not that simple.

"Thank you for your reminder," Gao Yuan said: "I originally didn't have particularly firm confidence in what I will do in the future, but now, I understand what I want to do."

Levi smiled slightly, "So, you finally understand the difference between reality and ideals? I admit that Mr. Gaoyuan may be an abnormal number, has no experience in studying abroad, and does not intend to serve America, but not everyone in this world thinks so."

"In this case, even if Mr. Gaoyuan can control the local area, it will not have much impact on the overall situation. After all, the world needs a large number of geniuses to build, and you are just one of them, and it is impossible for a person to change the world."

"Since that's the case, why not follow the trend? No matter how good x fiber is, it must be rated by our North American research system. No matter how outstanding you are, Mr. Gao Yuan, the papers you wrote must still be published in our academic journals."

"There is an idiom called "Mantis armed on the chariot". I don't want Mr. Gaoyuan to become the mantis that block the advance of the American chariot. In that way, it will be crushed to pieces."

Gao Yuan sighed softly, and it must be admitted that the gap between China and the United States is still very large, and it is difficult to catch up overnight.

But a few seconds later, Gao Yuan raised a curve again on the corner of his mouth and said to Levi: "You are right. It is far from enough to catch up with you in industry and technology. When will the world be able to form a consensus? It is a kind of honor to study Chinese, and to work in China is a kind of glory. Only then will we be considered a true revival."

“Although the road is long and difficult, I’m willing to give it a try.”

"Mr. Levi, thank you for your list. It's not rude to come and not to be rude. I have something for you here."

After saying that, Gaoyuan opened the drawer, took out a thick stack of papers, and handed them to Levi.

Levi was suspicious, but after he saw the title clearly, he immediately showed an excited look and quickly turned the page. However, after he turned about dozens of pages, his face changed again and his brows frowned.

Levi swallowed and spitted, "Is this your paper on x-fiber?"

Gao Yuan nodded slightly, "That's right."

Levi asked in confusion: "Why is the Chinese version?"

Gao Yuan showed a caring and mentally retarded look, "Because my mother tongue is Chinese."

Levi looked around and said, "Where is the English version?"

Gao Yuan shook his head gently, "No English version."

Levi seemed to be greatly shocked, "How can we publish such a top journal without an English version in science, nature?"

Gao Yuan said calmly: "I have no intention of publishing it in science, nor have I planned to publish it in other journals."

Levi's eyes were wide open, and he couldn't believe his ears, "Are you crazy?? Science is the most authoritative academic journal on the earth! It has an irreplaceable role in the academic research community all over the world! Being able to publish your own research results in science is the glory of all researchers!"

Gaoyuan spread his arms out and expressed disapproval.

Then he took back the paper in Levi's hand and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this. I don't belong to any academic circle and I'm lazy to deal with them."

"This paper and other follow-ups will be placed on my own website. Everyone is welcome to read and discuss it, but if you don't understand it, it is not my problem."

In a daze, Levi walked out of the plateau office with a confused look on his face.

He never expected that this would be the result today. Gao Yuan is so strange. What exactly is he going to do?

As soon as he walked out the door, he was blown by the cold wind outside, Levi shivered immediately and remembered a very important question.

"Mr. Gaoyuan, what is the name of the website you just mentioned?"
