From all-round academic master to chief scientist

"If people in our country's scientific community are like this, then we should just accept our fate and stop trying to catch up with Europe and the United States."

"I'm really shocked. It's simply unimaginable that such a thing can happen to such a person. Lin Xiao is a top mathematician, a top physicist in the world, and is even first-rate in materials science, and yet he actually wants to frame him? What are you thinking about? Drive people away? What a silverfish in the country! 』

"So this is the quality of a deputy director of a key research institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences? It's really worrying"

"Hey, everyone, stop scolding, stop scolding. If you punish yourself with three drinks, wouldn't it be enough to compensate everyone?" (doge)』

…

This sudden news spread very widely and quickly. It spread almost everywhere on various platforms such as KouKou group, WeChat group, scarf trending search, Zhihu, Tieba, Hupu... etc.

Even when the Chinese Academy of Sciences learned of the news and wanted to take action, it was already too late.

Of course, this is also because this incident really makes every Chinese people feel angry.

If a scientist who can be called the pride of their country really chooses not to return to the country despite being slandered like this, then every one of them will feel sorry for him.

If I had to use an event in history to describe it, it would probably be what Qin Hui did to Yue Fei.

And when this historical event was mentioned on the Internet, it was quickly borrowed by everyone, and said that Fan Min was the modern version of Qin Hui.

After all, there is indeed no essential difference between his behavior and Qin Hui's behavior.

Under such excitement, the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, as the core, was naturally in a state of distress.

"Fan Min! I've warned you not to do this kind of thing! It's better for you to do it now, secretly, secretly, and use the funds we used to build CEPC to do it. Do you want to destroy the entire Institute of High Energy? Smash it. ! Your reputation is ruined!"

In the office, Wang Yi looked at Fan Min with great annoyance.

He really didn't expect Fan Min to do such a thing.

Their competition in academia relies on either their ability or their personal connections, but using such small tricks is completely breaking the rules, let alone letting people discover them now.

Now their entire Institute of High Energy has become the target of public criticism across the country. Think about it, when they introduced themselves to others, they could proudly say that they were from the Institute of High Energy Physics. After all, they considered physics to be in the same category as mathematics. Contempt the most advanced subjects in the chain.

But now, they are too embarrassed to introduce it to others like this anymore. They are afraid that people will say: "Oh, you are the research institute that slandered Lin Xiao?"

As the director, Wang Yi now feels that if he sits in the office, disaster will come from the sky.

At this time, Fan Min was sitting on the seat next to him with a pale face, looking at the ceiling blankly, holding a cigarette in one hand, but the cigarette butt almost burned to the filter, and the ash was scattered all over him.

Hearing Wang Yi's words, he didn't react at all, as if he was dead.

“Beommin!”

Seeing him like this, Wang Yi became even more angry, "Don't just reply to me without saying a fucking word!"

Fan Min lowered his head with a wry smile on his face.

"Academician Wang, what else do I have to say? Everything has been exposed, so be it."

At this time, there was a knock on the office door.

Wang Yi wrinkled and said, "Who?"

"From the Public Security Bureau."

Wang Yi was stunned for a moment, then took a deep look at Fan Min next to him, and then said: "Please come in."

Then, several policemen came in. After seeing Wang Yi, they saluted him and said, "Hello, Academician Wang."

Then they walked up to Fan Min and said: "Fan Min, because you hired and instructed others to spread topics about slandering and insulting others on the Internet, and caused major public opinion incidents on the Internet, we have relevant evidence, so now please You come with us and be interrogated."

Fan Min raised his head and looked at the policemen. He could see the disgust from the heart in the eyes of these policemen.

What he did really made the whole country hate him.

And he still hasn't understood why what he did was known to others and posted on the Internet. But it's useless to worry about it now. Accepting justice is what he should do next. of.

…

This incident started very quickly and ended very quickly.

The superiors directly issued a request to close the case as soon as possible, so within a month, the verdict was reached.

The law is just. Although hiring trolls to insult and slander others is a crime, it is not a serious crime, so Fan Min was sentenced to less than a year, and because it was his first offender, he was also suspended.

After this result came out, domestic netizens felt quite regretful and even felt that it should be punished as a crime of endangering national security.

Of course, for insiders, Fan Min lost his position in the High Energy Institute, which was the most important punishment for him.

A person in his forties who was originally engaged in scientific research now doesn’t even have a scientific research position, and he probably won’t be able to find any related job in the future. This is undoubtedly a huge blow to his life, so Even if his sentence is not serious and there is a suspended sentence, his life will undoubtedly be no different from being in jail.

Of course, no one would pity him, everyone hated people like him.

To actually use such means to frame a rare genius scientist in their country, this is simply unforgivable.

Therefore, including Fan Min's familiar friends and even some of his relatives, they all expressed indifference to him or even blocked him.

In addition to Fan Min, people can also feel the meaning revealed above from this incident, which is the protection of Lin Xiao. Fan Min went from being famous to being imprisoned in less than a month. It's over. This is obviously too short for the time it takes to close a case, which can often take three, four months or even one or two years. Of course, this is also related to Fan Min's lack of appeal.

And being able to close the case so quickly fully demonstrates that someone must be paying attention to this matter.

This is tantamount to warning other monsters not to think about making small moves behind their backs to harm the scientists they are most proud of today.

This warning was obviously very useful, so it was rare to see people who deliberately went to black Lin Xiao on the Internet.

However, it is rarely seen, but it also means that it still exists.

"These people are really stupid."

Kong Huaan frowned when he saw that there were still three or two comments on the Internet that were insulting Lin Xiao. But obviously, there was no way to eradicate this situation. When that rhythm was set in motion, it naturally could not be completely eradicated. eliminated.

However, it is enough to be able to achieve this level.

"My mission is finally completed."

I closed all messages and deleted all the information collected over the past few days.

He looked out the window.

I hope Lin Xiao will return to China soon.

It just so happened that he had an idea recently and needed Lin Xiao's help. Now, he had better prepare it first.

…………

"Deputy Director of the Institute of High Energy Physics?"

When Lin Xiao learned the news, he couldn't help but be stunned.

For so long, because he has devoted his mind completely to his work, he has not paid attention to the news from the outside world.

Not to mention the people in the country who were specifically targeting him, he was not in the mood to pay attention to such things.

But just now, a friend he met here told him about this.

"Yes, this person named Fan Min is really hateful."

The friend he knew was standing in front of him, with an indignant look on his face. The mobile phone in his hand also showed a photo of Fan Min. It was the kind of photo of Fan Min sitting upright in a suit and leather shoes when attending a meeting, "Look at it. , this guy looks like a dog, he is still a scientist after all, but he still does this kind of thing, it is simply shameless."

"I'm telling you, Lin Xiao, don't be angry with this kind of person."

Lin Xiao smiled and said, "There's nothing to be angry about. I didn't even pay attention to this matter."

"That's good. It wouldn't be good if your anger affects our project."

Lin Xiao smiled and said: "Speaking of our project, I remember that your group is not responsible for counting the momentum of muons? Is it finished now?"

"Ah... well, we have to balance work and rest. I just want to go to the lounge and have a cup of coffee. Can we come together?"

Lin Xiao waved his hand, "I'm not going."

"Okay, I'll go first."

Looking at the back of my friend leaving, his name is Xu Da. He studied at Morden University as an undergraduate and studied at ETH Zurich as a graduate student. Of course, he mainly studied physics. He completed his PhD at the age of 26 and entered CERN to start his own career. After a postdoctoral career, he is now a junior researcher at CERN, no longer an intern researcher, but he is only twenty-eight years old, which is considered young among all junior researchers at LHC. After all, he is still a junior researcher at CERN. Here, junior researcher is equal to lifelong researcher.

Of course, leaving aside the matter about Xu Da for the time being, Lin Xiao looked back at the public opinions on the domestic Internet and finally shook his head.

These people are so difficult to understand.

What is it for?

He had previously speculated that this matter was more likely to be done by foreign forces, but he did not expect that it was ultimately done by domestic people, even the deputy director of the Institute of High Energy Physics.

He took a guess and quickly thought that this might be related to CEPC.

What did Mr. Yang say at the beginning made these people alert?

However, have they ever thought that now he no longer cares whether he can lead a CEPC?

Now, he has predicted that they still have several types of particles that they have not yet discovered, and these particles are most likely the gravitons, magnetic monopoles, and a type of particle called supersymmetric particles that they had guessed in the past.

In addition, there is another brand-new particle that they have never guessed before.

Of course, there is no need to doubt the correctness of multi-dimensional field theory, so in the future, the high-energy physics community will develop to verify his theory.

Just like the Higgs particle, whether it is the LHC, CEPC, or the future circular collider planned to be built in Europe in a few decades, all are to better search for the Higgs particle.

And now they have another major task, which is to verify his standard model of multidimensional field theory.

Particle accelerators around the world are all aimed at verifying his theory. Does he still need to care about a CEPC?

"It's so small."

Shaking his head, he still had his own things to do.

He has gradually gained insights into measuring the mass of the W boson.
