With the arrival of 2021, the co-election of academicians of the two academies of China has officially begun, and scholars from various universities and scientific research institutions have become the object of everyone's attention. After all, this is not only related to the honor of universities, but also related to the development of national science and technology, so everyone attaches great importance to it.
A news in the past two days has caused netizens across the country to discuss the co-election of academicians of the two academies. This news is about the moutai group chief engineer Wang Li shortlisted for the 2021 academician candidate list, this matter after the media coverage, in the network continued to ferment, causing discussions from all parties.
The staff of the Guizhou Association for Science and Technology said that the recommendation of Moutai engineer Wang Li to select academicians is mainly because Wang Li's awards, papers and works, invention patents, scientific and technological awards, etc., all meet the requirements of academician selection, so they will be recommended to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
After this incident occurred, some netizens ridiculed this as a "liquor academician". Many netizens feel that this has no scientific and technological content, has no contribution to the country's scientific and technological development, and is not qualified to select academicians at all. At this time, Yan Ning, a famous Chinese biological scientist, has also become the object of attention, so the two people have also been compared by netizens.
Compared with the push of the Guizhou Association for Science and Technology, Yan Ning has no interest in this academician selection, and his Weibo account seems to have responded to this matter. For example, some time ago, some people said that they lost the election of academicians three times and continued to run for election this year, and Yan Ning clearly mentioned in today's reply that he did not run and repeatedly rejected the nomination of domestic tutors.
Yan Ning said in the explanation that I was only nominated once in 2017, except for the nomination, I did not communicate details with anyone, and this year there were several academicians who wanted to nominate based on my previous work in China, but I politely refused.
From here, Yan Ning is not interested in the selection of domestic academicians, so regarding domestic nominations, she directly rejects them. Many people have speculated that he has seen through the domestic situation, so he only wants to do his own research and does not want to become the talking point of others.
Moutai engineer Wang Li is keen to run, while Yan Ning gave up his job at Tsinghua University, chose to teach in the United States, and repeatedly refused to be nominated for domestic academicians. I think there are two main reasons.
<h1>First, Yan Ning himself has looked down on it</h1>
In the past few years, because of working in China, if you want to apply for various scientific research funds, various titles will have advantages, so Yan Ning at that time also wanted to select academicians, but in the end, because of the problems of age and seniority, he was not elected in the end. This can be said to be a big blow to Yan Ning.
It may also be at this time that Yan Ning understands that it is basically impossible to become an academician in a short period of time. Instead of being talked about by the media, it is better to look down on this matter. The best way is to stay away from this circle and go abroad to conduct research, so that you can avoid a lot of trouble and can do scientific research purely and calmly.
<h1>Second, we do not want to mix with domestic competition</h1>
There are many circles in China's scientific research community, there are also many academic disputes, and there will be a lot of competition in the evaluation of academicians. For a person with low emotional intelligence and purely want to do scientific research, such a scientific research environment is best not to mix, and it is best not to become the object of everyone's discussion.
Therefore, when many people evaluated Academician Moutai and Yan Ning, Yan Ning issued a statement saying: "I do not work in China, my name appears on the candidate list, I will be scolded by half of the people; if I can't be selected, I will be used as a tool for scolding people, and it is best to do scientific research with peace of mind." ”
From the above two aspects, China's academician selection system is not perfect enough, and there may be more problems. Moutai engineers can become candidates, how can this kind of research without scientific and technological content become the direction leading the development of society?
Therefore, Yan Ningwan refused the nomination of many academicians in China, but did not want to be disturbed by the outside world, did not want to be the object of discussion, just wanted to do a good job in scientific research, and the title of academician was not so important.
