Chapter 867: Let’s Make a Big fuss, and the Scum Abuse Begins (Part 1)
The so-called "debate" is actually an academic discussion in which two or more parties hold different opinions.
Looking at the history of modern science, the most famous one is the great debate between Einstein and Bohr on their different views on the interpretation of quantum mechanics.
It has had an indelible and significant impact on the creation and development of quantum mechanics.
November 2052 is destined to be an extraordinary month for the fields of global virology, immunology, pharmacology, and biological agents.
Later generations even called this "Jiang Fuyue-Hamazaki Kawashima" debate "the first of its kind in the immunology research of the Shenkwo virus"!
Over the next few decades, countless immunologists, pharmacologists, and biopharmaceutical doctors joined in, and this intense exchange of ideas ultimately led to the birth of "human viral immunology."
Of course, this is a later story, so let’s not talk about it for now.
In early November, when autumn was in full swing, invitations like snowflakes were sent out from the campus of Mingda University and flew to the desks of top scholars, experts, professors and industry leaders in the medical field at home and abroad.
The signature in the lower right corner of this invitation is: Jiang Fuyue Personal Laboratory, Qiming University.
And stamp it.
If such an invitation letter had been sent out half a year ago, it would have been a laughing stock, even if Jiang Fuyue was a so-called "genius girl", had won several gold medals in competitions, had many fans, and had scored full marks in the college entrance examination.
These are not worth mentioning at all in front of the real academic giants!
It's like a wealthy businessman encountering a little girl selling popsicles and she bragging to him that she made a hundred dollars today.
Such naivety and ignorance are not even worthy of any contempt from the wealthy.
Because - you are not even an opponent, at most you are just a little kid who has never seen the world.
Not on the same level, let alone the same grade.
However, this situation changed completely after Jiang Fuyue won the Lasker Award.
With the two research projects of A+ vaccine and special medicine in hand, she went straight from a "little girl selling popsicles" to a "popsicle monopolist", controlling the "popsicle" resources of the whole world.
Who dares to look down on her?
Of course, the invitations sent out also carry considerable weight.
On the second day alone, we received nearly 100 responses from China, of which 95% of the invitees clearly stated that they would come, and the remaining 5% were basically uncertain.
There are almost no people who directly refuse.
Even scholars in the industry may secretly feel proud of receiving an invitation.
When an important person sends an invitation, and people of the same level are generally invited, if this person is not invited, it does not mean that he is lucky, but only means that the host looks down on him and does not take him seriously.
So, those who received it were relieved, but those who didn’t receive it had some ideas.
It is also for this reason that even those invited guests who were unable to attend the meeting because they really couldn't get away or because their projects were at a critical stage and they couldn't get away, all replied to the email politely, explaining the reasons as a sign of respect.
Soon, the higher-ups learned that Jiang Fuyue had widely sent out invitations to debate.
Her action is no longer a purely personal act, because it involves scientists from other countries, many of whom are national treasures. Such a large-scale gathering should be reported to the relevant departments both from a legal perspective and in terms of administrative control.
Jiang Fuyue did indeed follow the rules.
As the organizer, Mingda University needs to assume the relevant responsibilities of receiving guests. Long before the invitation letter was sent out, it had already started to handle the procedures, go through the process, and wait for approval from superiors.
During this period, there were considerable obstacles because the relevant links were not connected.
Xiaoshan personally took action and resolved most of the issues, but it was still stuck at the final approval stage.
"It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just that I can't do it. From what I heard over there, they probably want you to go there in person."
Jiang Fuyue raised an eyebrow: "I'll go?"
Xiao Shan nodded. "From the tone of voice, I think I understood correctly. As long as this approval is given, all the formalities will be complete."
Xie Dingyuan gave her a reassuring look and said, "I'll accompany you tomorrow."
The two of them came to the door the next day.
When I went in, I saw—wow! They were all old friends and old leaders.
When they met each other, they were both stunned.
Jiang Fuyue never expected to meet an acquaintance, and the other party did not expect Xie Dingyuan to come along.
"Why are you afraid that we old guys will bully her?"
Xie Dingyuan: "You're joking. I wouldn't dare."
They said they didn't dare, but they thought so in their hearts! Don't think that these old guys are old and their eyes are not good, and their hearts are also blind.
This protectiveness of his child is really...
Well, the couple has a good relationship, exchanges ideas at work, and supports each other in life. To put it in a broader sense, it promotes the improvement of domestic scientific research level - a good thing!
"Actually, the reason I asked you to come here today wasn't to hold up the approval process. Ahem... well, this debate, ahem..." The old man felt a little embarrassed as he spoke, but he finally gritted his teeth and asked, "How confident are you?"
Jiang Fuyue made such a big fuss, and it seemed that he was well prepared and confident, but he was used to stability from above, and he couldn't let go of his worries until he got a definite answer.
I called Jiang Fuyue over today just to get her to confess her true feelings!
You said this... What if it goes wrong, how will it end in front of so many scientific researchers from all over the world?
Jiang Fuyue understood their feelings, and after a moment's hesitation, he replied concisely, "I'm sure."
Suddenly, the old men were completely relieved.
He stamped the approval slip on the spot and handed it to Jiang Fuyue: "Kid, I wish you success."
"Thanks."
Now that both parties have reached a consensus, the next step is for the higher-ups to just cooperate, give the green light and provide support all the way.
Even Xu Kaiqing couldn't help but sigh: "Your presence is unprecedented in the academic world."
It’s worthy of being called “sorrow”.
As soon as dad takes action, everyone present becomes a fool.
Can't compare, can't afford to offend!
He couldn't help but observe two seconds of silence for Fu Zhengxin and Qian Youwen.
…
At the same time, Hamasaki Kawashima, who was far away in Country R, also received Jiang Fuyue's email.
It’s not an invitation, but a declaration of war!
It is said that Hamasaki Kawashima smashed a teapot and two teacups on the spot and cursed in the room.
As for what he cursed...
Jiang Fuyue couldn’t hear it anyway.
The next day, Hamasaki Kawashima wrote back: "I look forward to fighting you! I can't wait!"
At this point, the arena has been set up, and the attackers and defenders are in place. All they have to do is wait for the spectators to gather before the gong is struck to start the match!
"What?! Jiang Fuyue challenged Hamasaki Kawashima?" Fu Zhengxin's brows furrowed in surprise. "How dare she?"
Qian Youwen handed over the invitation with a sullen face: "Take a look for yourself."
Fu Zhengxin opened it and took one look, a vicious look flashed across his eyes, "Oh, the rabbit is getting anxious and starts to bite."
"Rabbit?" Qian Youwen said in an exaggerated tone, "Do you have any misunderstanding about this kind of animal? She's fearless and will not let go until she's bitten off a piece of meat, and you actually think she's a rabbit? I think she's more ferocious than a hungry wolf!"
"Why, are you scared?" Fu Zhengxin sneered.
But that smile was unpleasant to the ear. Qian Youwen raised his eyes coldly, "You probably haven't figured out the current situation yet. Since Jiang Fuyue dared to send out invitations and request a face-to-face academic debate with Hamasaki Kawashima, it means she must have discovered something, and this discovery is enough to hammer Hamasaki Kawashima to death. Don't forget, you and your granddaughter were the first in the country to question Jiang Fuyue!"
Once Hamasaki Kawashima is finished, the grandfather and grandson surnamed Fu, including himself, will not be able to escape responsibility.
At present, the domestic medical community, led by Fu Zhengxin and Fu Qing, has taken sides without thinking, and easily expressed support for the claims in Hamasaki Kawashima's paper without experimental verification, and criticized Jiang Fuyue.
Firstly, Jiang Fuyue was indeed eye-catching, causing most of her peers in the circle to be jealous and hateful.
Secondly, he was led astray by Fu Zhengxin.
Once the situation turns in Jiang Fuyue's favor, or even if Jiang Fuyue directly proves that Hamasaki Kawashima's paper is wrong, what awaits the three of them will be complaints and backlash from their peers.
By then, all the responsibilities will be placed on them...
Thinking of this, Qian Youwen couldn't help but shiver, and his eyes showed fear.
Unexpectedly, Fu Zhengxin sneered after hearing this. "She's a half-baked novice with no formal medical training. She was lucky enough to develop the A+ vaccine and stumbled upon the virus antibodies. That's all. Besides, she hasn't even graduated from college yet. Do you think a young person who got to her current position through sheer luck has the guts to pick a fight with Hamasaki Kawashima?"
Hamasaki Kawashima has been famous for many years and is a well-known figure in the medical community of Country R and even the world.
Is it so easy to overturn the paper he wrote?
"Old Qian, you're a bit too nervous. There's no need to be so paranoid." He picked up a corner of the invitation, looking at it as if it were something funny. "It was just bluffing, and you actually believed it? Ridiculous!"
Qian Youwen looked at his arrogant and powerful appearance, as if he was looking at a moth that was fluttering around in an eager attempt to destroy itself.
"Heh... Anyway, I won't play with you anymore. I hope you can still be as calm and composed as you are now on the day of the debate."
After saying that, he turned around and left without saying anything more.
Qian Youwen regrets it!
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have been so anxious to make a public statement. Now, not only did I not gain anything good from Fu Zhengxin, I also offended Xu Kaiqing and Jiang Fuyue.
Over the years, he has relied on his superb ability to sit on the fence and change his stance according to the situation to get to where he is today, but he never expected to stumble.
Fu Zhengxin, that idiot, doesn't even realize he's about to die!
However, is Fu Zhengxin really stupid?
Of course not.
After Qian Youwen left, his smug look disappeared. He picked up the invitation again, and the more he looked at it, the gloomier his heart became.
What he said just now was indeed his true thoughts. He did not think that a young girl like Jiang Fuyue could pose any threat to Hamasaki Kawashima, but there were some things that had to be guarded against.
A hint of cruelty flashed across his old eyes. Fu Zhengxin took out his cell phone and dialed his granddaughter Fu Qing's number: "It's me..."
…
Whether it was Hamasaki Kawashima's initial target of a miracle drug, or Jiang Fuyue's current debate post, generally speaking, it was all an internal matter of the academic circle.
Most people outside don’t know.
But just three days after Jiang Fuyue sent out a large number of invitations, a leaked post appeared on a non-academic forum.
The title is: "Breaking News! Shenkewo's special medicine has serious hazards. Is Jiang Fuyue saving people? Or killing them?!"
It is obvious that it was written by a professional, and every word is taken out of context to create explosive points.
Since this forum mainly shares gossip on a daily basis, it attracts a large number of people who like to watch the show. In addition, the three words "Jiang Fu Yue" themselves bring traffic, so this post was soon moved to Weibo.
Half an hour later, it effortlessly became a hot topic.
[Holy crap! When did this happen? Why didn't I hear anything about it?]
[I just checked the paper by Hamasaki Kawashima, it was published a month ago]
[So, Sister Yue has been wronged for so long? ]
I understand those foreign scientists taking advantage of others' misfortunes, given their different perspectives. But why is the Chinese medical community still engaging in internal conflict? Attacking Sister Yue, a fellow Chinese who has brought honor to our country?
She has done so much and sacrificed so much, yet she is treated so unfairly. The Chinese academic community must have been rotten for a long time.
Jiang Fuyue, can you please stop washing your leg hair? Look carefully, it's the harmful effects of medication! It can cause fetal deformities and even miscarriage! Are you all blind?
[There's nothing to say. In the face of global drug safety, who is Jiang Fuyue?]
[No matter how great your contribution is, you should pay for your mistakes.]
…
Under malicious guidance, the voices accusing Jiang Fuyue began to drown out those supporting her.
Because it involves the issue of "drug safety", it is different from the previous minor incidents.
Are miracle drugs really harmful?
Should Jiang Fuyue be held responsible for this?
These questions have raised doubts in the minds of fans. Before the answers are clear, they dare not argue. To put it bluntly, they lack confidence.
He could no longer speak out with confidence like before, and it was also to avoid bringing bad luck to Jiang Fuyue and making the situation worse.
I'm a medical student. Before the official announcement, I didn't know if the Shenkwo special medicine was truly harmful to pregnant women and fetuses. But I'm willing to trust Sister Yue, believing in her professional competence and compassion. She wouldn't take human life lightly. That's it.
I also believe that a person who used his body as a shield to save a little girl during a bombing raid would not be an executioner who tramples on life.
Originally, it was just an internal conflict within the academic circle. Everyone in the circle had a consensus, which was -
Things should be done within the circle and should be done within the circle. We will not unethically bring them outside the circle and make people laugh at us.
Maybe this is what the educated people call... "respectability"?
But this time, it is obvious that someone is not following the moral code of martial arts.
Xie Dingyuan: "It was the work of Fu Zhengxin and Fu Qing."
Xu Kaiqing was shocked by this sweeping operation: "Why did he do this?! Isn't he afraid that this will become a big deal and there will be no way to resolve it?"
Jiang Fuyue: "Maybe it's just the opposite?"
"What's the meaning?"
"He's scared."
He took a desperate risk and used the power of public opinion to put pressure on Jiang Fuyue, trying to make her give up and abandon the academic debate.
"stupid!"
Xu Kaiqing: "So what should we do next? Just let the internet riot? Are we going to do nothing about it?"
Jiang Fuyue picked up the water cup and took a sip. His voice was cool and calm.
"Since someone wants to make things worse, I will help him."
That afternoon, Mingda’s official Weibo account posted the following:
Qiming University V: On November 23rd, at 10:00 am China time, our student Jiang Fuyue and R country medical expert Hamasaki Kawashima will have an academic discussion on a series of questions about Shenkewo's special-effect drug. The discussion will be broadcast live simultaneously, so stay tuned!
In addition, ten lucky netizens will be selected by forwarding and following to watch the game live.
[First place, hit me, hit me! ]
[Pay attention to the blackboard, the class representative has highlighted the key point: Watch the game!]
Is this a head-on confrontation? Sister Yue is awesome, Mingda V587 (mighty and domineering)
[The melon seeds are ready, waiting to be slapped in the face]
[Ever since I became a fan of Sister Yue, eating melons has become more sophisticated]
[I wonder if you've noticed that Xiao Ming (Ming Da) really dotes on the Moon Goddess. Whenever something happens, he's always the first to express his opinion, and his stance is always absolutely supportive.]
Mingda and Yuejie were meant to complement each other. I can only say that Yuejie made the right choice.
[Xiao Ming: You never leave me, and I repay you with my whole heart]
【Defense broken! 】
What kind of divine friendship is this? Mingda deserves it, and Sister Yue deserves it even more.
[Sister Yue and Xiao Ming... Another strange couple has appeared]
Professor Xie expressed strong dissatisfaction
[There's no way around it. Professor Xie belongs to Sister Yue, and Sister Yue belongs to everyone? [Spreads hands]]
…
The autumn wind is blowing and the sky is high and the clouds are light.
It rained twice in a row in the capital, and the temperature was getting lower day by day.
Just when everyone put on their windbreakers and wrapped themselves tightly in their coats, November 23rd arrived.
With the attention of the entire Internet and the global medical community, this long-brewing academic debate has finally arrived as scheduled...
Thanks for pointing out in the comments that large gatherings require approval. I checked and it is indeed the case.
