443: Elected as academician of both academies!

Academician Hu suppressed the anger in his eyes.

But against this, he truly had no recourse.

If it were someone else, Academician Hu could still think of some way, at least be able to speak up, but Professor Guo...

That would require connections reaching the heavens; for such a figure, he didn't even have a channel to get to know them, let alone apply pressure!

It was simply impossible!

Moreover, what was even more crucial was that this fellow Wang Tianqi had latched onto Professor Guo's leg; wouldn't he have a high probability of producing something in the future?

What if he really managed to make the solid-state battery, and it was successfully commercialized, with results even better than his own route?

What should he do then???

One must know, Professor Guo was a Professor most skilled at creating miracles!

Whatever he produced was not a strange thing!

Controlled nuclear fusion, Goldbachs Conjecture, Cloned Organs...

Every single one was a problem considered almost impossible to solve!

But Professor Guo handled them all!

Thinking of this, Academician Hu's eyes were full of helplessness.

With a dark expression, he cast a vote for Guo Hao, agreeing to join the Dragon Academy of Sciences!

This vote he cast was extremely unwillingly!

It wasn't that he had any opinion about Guo Hao, mainly it was because Guo Hao helped Wang Tianqi!

He had worked with Wang Tianqi for over a year, and the two had argued too many times due to disagreements, and later, because of a series of events, they turned into enemies, finally causing a huge commotion.

It drew the mediation of the school Leaders.

Finally, Wang Tianqi left.

At first, it was just a disagreement in scientific philosophy, but by the end of the arguments, it was no longer as simple as just philosophical differences.

They had almost become enemies.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have caused such a big fuss.

Right now, Professor Guo actually helped his enemy!

Professor Hu was very angry! Yet utterly helpless!

He was very clear that his vote had no impact on whether Guo Hao could join the Academy of Sciences; on the contrary, if he didn't vote, Professor Guo wouldn't care.

But President Bai wouldn't let him off so easily!

Or rather, the other Academicians would also have preconceived notions about him!

Because now, it wasn't Guo Hao trying to join the Academy of Sciences; on the contrary!

It was everyone in the Academy of Sciences who wanted Guo Hao to join the Academy of Sciences!

Competing with the Academy of Engineering!

After all, Professor Guo's achievements were too many, and his influence was also the greatest among scientists in Dragon Country and even the world!

A scientist of this level still needs to find a way to join the Academy of Sciences?

Therefore, Academician Hu was very clear that his vote had absolutely no impact on Guo Hao!

Beijing.

President Bai's eyes held joy.

"All 846 Academicians of the Academy of Sciences have unanimously approved, agreeing to Professor Guo joining the Dragon Country Academy of Sciences!"

"Leader, Professor Guo should join our Dragon Country Academy of Sciences now, right!"

President Bai said to the Leader beside him.

"Shou..."

The Leader hadn't finished speaking.

"Stop talking nonsense, our Academy of Engineering's 923 Academicians have also unanimously approved, agreeing to Professor Guo joining our Dragon Country Academy of Engineering! Why should he join your Academy of Sciences!"

President Li of the Academy of Engineering, who was beside them, said to President Bai in a displeased tone.

"Furthermore! Professor Guo presided over the construction of an engineering project of the level of Controlled nuclear fusion, so it can be said he is very suitable to join the Dragon Country Academy of Engineering!

Trying to snatch someone away isn't done like this!"

"You!"

President Bai glared at President Li.

"Professor Guo's achievements in theory are clearly higher! Whether it's his performance on high-energy particles or his research on Cloned Organs.

Under various theoretical and practical research, Professor Guo is clearly a scientist, not an Engineer!

Moreover, even for Controlled nuclear fusion, Professor Guo only achieved it after theoretical breakthroughs and material research breakthroughs! It wasn't an engineering breakthrough; strictly speaking, Professor Guo should join the Academy of Sciences!"

What President Bai said was also reasonable and well-founded.

As the two debated, the Leader beside them felt a headache coming on.

In the past, when admitting new Academicians, both of them were very modest!

But today, in order to contend for Professor Guo's affiliation, these two highly respected scientists were actually arguing here, which was truly...

"Listen to me for a moment!"

At this moment, the Leader said to the two with some helplessness.

Both stopped, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes, looking at the Leader beside them.

"Since Professor Guo received 100% of the votes from both your sides, let Professor Guo join both academies simultaneously! Anyway, there's a precedent for this kind of thing, saving you the trouble of arguing here!"

The Leader said helplessly.

Hearing the Leader's words, both of them were taken aback.

This was something they hadn't quite expected; joining both academies simultaneously seemed like something that hadn't happened before, although there were indeed Academicians of both academies.

But most of these cases were from the 1990s; in the last decade, such operations have been almost non-existent!

However, for Guo Hao to join both academies simultaneously wouldn't be considered breaking the rules!

Both nodded.

"Alright."

"Okay!"

Hearing the two nod, the Leader slightly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, that's settled! Next, let's discuss the matter of the National Natural Science Awards at the National Science and Technology Conference in June."

The Leader's expression became slightly more serious.

"What level of award should we confer upon Professor Guo?"

Hearing the Leader's words.

President Bai and President Li were both momentarily stunned, and the two exchanged a glance.

Hesitation appeared in their eyes.

"Let's award... the National Highest Science and Technology Award!"

President Bai only pondered for a moment.

"Professor Guo's achievements are truly too numerous; I even feel that the National Highest Science and Technology Award is not enough. With his achievements, the National Highest Science and Technology Award is insufficient to encompass his accomplishments!"

"Hmm! I also think that if Professor Guo doesn't deserve the National Highest Science and Technology Award, then I really can't imagine who possibly could deserve this award!"

President Li, who was beside him, also nodded and said.

"Of course."

The Leader beside them smiled.

"Therefore, I have also decided to confer the 2016 National Science and Technology Progress Award Special Prize upon Professor Guo! Only he is worthy of these awards!"

"It should be so!"

"Indeed, it should be so!"

President Bai and President Li both nodded.

They reached a consensus on this matter.

"Since everyone agrees, that's how it will be. I will submit it later."

The Leader smiled, looking at President Bai and President Li beside him and said.

The two nodded without speaking.

On this kind of matter, even the most foolish person couldn't obstruct Professor Guo!

Everyone knew how important Professor Guo was in the eyes of the higher-ups now, and how great Professor Guo's influence was.

If it were someone else, as young as Professor Guo, they might still mention whether he was too young, fearing there would be nothing left to award!

But Professor Guo was different!

Perhaps for others, receiving the National Natural Science Highest Award was something to be proud of!

But, for Guo Hao to receive the award, that was the pride of the National Natural Science Awards!
