Chapter 60 60 [Sheldon, get out]
On January 27th, Caltech officially awarded Xiang Nan the University Science Award, and a grand award ceremony was held for this purpose.
"Raj, congratulations." Leonard congratulated.
"Thank you." Xiang Nan nodded, then looked at Penny beside him, "Hi, you are here too, welcome!"
"Congratulations." Penny smiled.
Looking at Xiang Nan who is now in high spirits, she feels somewhat regretful in her heart.
When Xiang Nan was with her, he was just a little-known researcher.
But after breaking up with her, the career is flourishing and thriving.
I heard from Leonard that he has now become a man of the school, and even won such a heavyweight award as the University Award, which is really amazing.
And the reason why she knew that this award was very important and great was that when she was having dinner with Sheldon and Leonard that day, Sheldon was so angry that after hearing Leonard say that he had won this award, All the lunch boxes fell.
Having been friends with Sheldon for half a year, she knew that it was his unique way of complimenting.
"Thank you." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled, "I'm glad you can come. By the way, you and Leonard are now..."
"Oh, we're just friends." Penny panicked and quickly waved her hands to argue.
Seeing her say that, Leonard suddenly showed an embarrassed expression.
"Oh." Xiang Nan nodded and did not continue to ask.
To be honest, he could have brought Lalita tonight too.
However, he was afraid that there would be an accident after Lalita met Peggy, so he didn't tell her about it.
…
"By the way, Sheldon didn't come for something important, I hope you don't get angry with him." Leonard apologized to Sheldon again.
"No, it's just good that he doesn't come." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled, he didn't want Sheldon to appear at the awards ceremony at all.
Because Sheldon likes to steal the limelight very much, with him here, the whole awards ceremony will not be clean.
"Strange! Weren't you good friends before, why is your relationship like this now?" Penny asked suspiciously when she saw this.
She remembered that Xiang Nan and Sheldon had a very good relationship, why are they now strangers? !
"It's a long story, so don't worry about it." Xiang Nan waved his hands and smiled, not wanting to mention it again.
"Leonard~" Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Penny obviously had something to hide, so she couldn't help asking Leonard for advice.
Leonard doesn't want to talk too much.
The reason why Xiang Nan and Sheldon fell out was caused by him.
He begged Xiang Nan for an idea to save Sheldon, but Sheldon turned his anger on Xiang Nan instead.
He had a quarrel with Sheldon, and Xiang Nan helped him out, but Sheldon took it upon himself again.
Penny saw that he didn't want to talk, so she asked more urgently in private.
With Leonard’s dog-licking personality, it will be a matter of time before she succumbs to being questioned so continuously.
…
A moment later, the award ceremony officially began.
The master of ceremonies is Howard Wolowitz, which is the benefit that Xiang Nan fought for him.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, I am Howard Wolowitz," Howard presided over, "It is a great honor to introduce to you the winner of the University Science Award of the Year, my good friend Dr. Rajesh Kusapari !"
As soon as his voice fell, there was warm applause in the hall.
In the second half of last year, Xiang Nan went full fire and achieved amazing results. He not only discovered a rare habitable planet, but also found the Higgs boson, which solved a century-old problem in physics.
Such a series of astonishing achievements also made him the most dazzling new star in the school. It can be said that it is well-deserved to win the University Science Award this time, and everyone is convinced.
"Dr. Rajesh Kusapari will be on stage to accept the award!" Howard announced with a smile again.
Xiang Nan immediately stepped onto the stage amid the applause of everyone, and took the trophy from the principal Seibert.
"I am very grateful to the school for awarding me this award. It is an affirmation of my hard work last year." Xiang Nan held up the trophy and said with a smile, "I would also like to thank Principal Seibert, Dr. magnificent…"
Just as he was delivering his acceptance speech, thanking his friends for letting them share the glory, he heard a voice from the back of the hall shout, "I object to you receiving this award!"
When everyone heard this, they were taken aback for a moment, and all of them turned their heads to look back.
Xiang Nan was also startled, stood on tiptoe to look, and saw a man wearing a black hood standing up from the last row.
"Your thesis "Edgworth-Kyber Fragment Disk" has major flaws. How can such an imprecise academic style deserve a university science award?" The hooded man continued.
"Edgeworth-Kyber Fragmentation Disk" is the first paper Xiang Nan published after he came to this world.
It proposes a new algorithm to remove the effects of **** and distance selection in known TNO populations to derive the expected parameters of the "true" EKB.
This is of great benefit to the study of the Kappa belt, so after it was launched, it was quickly accepted by the top journal "Astrophysics", and made Xiang Nan a hit.
Now, the hooded people question the "Edgworth-Kyber Fragment Disk" paper has major flaws, and question Xiang Nan's academic research attitude is not rigorous enough.
If the accusation is true, it will cause great damage to Xiang Nan's reputation.
So hearing what he said, everyone turned their heads to look at Xiang Nan in doubt, not knowing what explanation he had.
"This gentleman who hides his head and reveals his tail, this paper of mine was published in the "Astrophysical Journal" after being reviewed by dozens of experts and scholars, and after Dr. Gablehouse's guidance, it was confirmed that it was correct.
If there is a major flaw, why didn't everyone find it but you? ! "Xiang Nan smiled slightly, "Besides, tonight is an awards ceremony, not a seminar. If you have comments on my thesis, you can discuss it with me in private. Let's not discuss it here and waste everyone's precious time. "
Hearing what he said, everyone nodded.
Xiang Nan's paper was published in the journal "Astrophysics", and this journal is the top academic journal in the industry. The review is extremely strict, and there will be basically no major mistakes.
"Don't top journals have errors? The reason why I can find this problem is because I am smarter than all of you." The hooded man continued to shout.
"Soul Dan, Sheldon, take off your hood and get out!" Howard recognized his voice, stood up and shouted.
