Chapter 326 State Banquet
[No matter how unconventional it is, Wu Tong is too young. The National Natural Science and Technology First Prize, which has been vacant for two years, was awarded to a person who has just reached adulthood and can still be called a child. Isn't it too much courtesy to Wu Tong? ]
People's hearts are complicated. Some are happy that Wu Tong has received such an award, but there are also people with ulterior motives who can't stand Wu Tong being too successful.
Of course, this bit of suspicion was quickly cooled down by the enthusiastic netizens in Antarctica.
[The above, how many years have you been awake? You are young, hahaha... I don't ask you to achieve such results when my God was 17 or 18 years old. If I give you three or four times the time, can you achieve such a great achievement as my God? Control the water in your brain more. Maybe retraining can make you more sober? ]
[Age, are there still people who are ignorant enough to use age and qualifications as an excuse? What old feudal tradition is this? Wasn't it broken by you back then? It is precisely because my God is young that I deserve higher courtesy. My God is like the rising sun, and now I am at the peak. There is still more to look forward to in the future. Unlike some people, who can already see the future, the sun is setting in the west! ]
[When did being young become a problem? Isn't being young better? The country has already made it clear that if you follow our God's example, age will never be a problem as long as you are good enough. For us young people today, this is good news, okay? There are still people who are immersed in the past, relying on age to gain experience! You can step down and let others take over! ]
There is never a shortage of young people in this world who rely on their seniority to bully newcomers and suffer unfair treatment. This immediately resonated with the higher-ups. The courtesy shown to Wu Tong and the achievements she has made made it necessary for all the major awards in the world to be awarded to her. No one could use age as an excuse. It can be said that this truly gave them great encouragement!
The day after the award ceremony, a state banquet was held in the Great Hall to reward these researchers who have made outstanding contributions to the country. Compared with the self-service form abroad, Wu Tong, who attended the state banquet for the first time, was really enlightened.
State banquets have always been popular among Chinese people, and they live up to their name. They really draw on the strengths of various domestic cuisines, and follow the requirement of "taste as the core and nourishment as the purpose", from the royal court dishes to folk snacks, from famous dishes from all over the world to the eight major domestic cuisines, to form a unique series of cuisines.
Especially the state banquet held in the Great Hall is an important representative of the essence!
As today's winner, and also the important and rare winner of the National Natural Science First Prize, Wu Tong's seat is at one of the main tables.
There are all kinds of dishes, colorful and dazzling, with precious ingredients and careful selection. Each dish has its own uniqueness and characteristics, which makes Wu Tong almost dazzled. If there is anything that Wu Tong likes besides research, it is undoubtedly delicious food!
Wu Tong tasted almost every dish, and she ate them with all her heart. She thought about making more contributions as soon as possible so that she could have the opportunity to bring her family to enjoy the state banquet treatment.
"We are still too impetuous, not even as good as a child!" Pan Wenhua and Cheng Lao looked at Wu Tong lovingly and sighed softly. As the winner of the first prize of the National Natural Science Award, and the youngest winner in history, he was the center of attention, showing his elegance and grace. He could be said to be the most watched person in the entire conference.
It can be said that all the scientific researchers wanted to make friends with Wu Tong and wanted to chat with him. Who knows, they may need help from Wu Tong someday. Moreover, Wu Tong is a national role model who is being protected and promoted by the higher-ups. He is also a future pillar of the country. It would definitely be beneficial to befriend Wu Tong.
Platforms like this are a great opportunity for people to make friends and communicate with each other.
However, looking at Wu Tong, she was always polite to the scholars who talked with her, but nothing more. She showed respect to the elders, but she had no other thoughts. Making connections was not as important as tasting more dishes!
"This is the strength of being young and at the top! This is the purity we yearn for but cannot achieve!" Cheng smiled. He was able to guide Wu Tong when he first entered the materials industry and call him a teacher. This was really the luckiest thing in his life! He raised his wine glass to Pan Wenhua, thanking the School of Mathematics for giving him a proud young apprentice.
"I know you are so beautiful!" Pan Wenhua rolled his eyes at his old friend and drank fiercely. He didn't even bother to savor the taste of the national liquor, aged Maozi. This old guy was just showing off and claiming the title of a legitimate teacher. Of course, their School of Mathematics at Peking University was also very glorious today! Although he was a little jealous of his old friend's legitimate title, he was still very beautiful today!
Wu Tong’s glory is the glory of China, the glory of the Chinese academic community, and also the glory of Peking University and its School of Mathematics!
It can be said that today's Peking University has won a lot of rewards, and countless schools are envious and jealous, especially the looks and comments from the neighbors are the most sour!
Not far away, several people at another main table were also talking about Wu Tong.
"Our President Wu really likes today's dishes!"
"It's rare to have something that President Wu likes. Let's ask President Wu if he has any taboos. Every now and then, let's ask our state banquet chef to go out on an errand and make some dishes that President Wu likes and send them to President Wu and her family!" This is the hero who has made great strides in their scientific research. He has devoted himself to research and has few extra hobbies. Preparing something that President Wu likes is a small favor, and it can be considered a token of his appreciation.
These people are all familiar with Wu Tong's information. What she cares about most is her family.
"I'll make arrangements right away. We'll find a reliable chef to prepare special meals for Mr. Wu in Beijing. If it's convenient, we'll let the chef follow Mr. Wu when he joins a project. Mr. Wu is fighting for the country, so let him have a good meal!"
"Yes, yes. Mr. Wu, you need to eat well, eat healthily, and eat happily. We also need to do adequate logistics and protection work!"
There were more discussions about Wu Tong at every table, and there were countless people looking at Wu Tong. Wu Tong was already able to ignore everything and just eat with all her heart. Seeing her eating so seriously, the other first prize winners and the two elders who won the highest science and technology award at the same table with Wu Tong all had their appetites whetted.
This main table was full of strange people, young and old, who did not compete in drinking or toast, but just tasted the dishes one by one. Those who liked alcohol opened their own wine, and those who did not drink alcohol had juices, drinks and teas prepared for them to choose freely.
