China’s next Nobel Prize
Thread Content
I watch the news quite late; it was only last night that I found out Mo Yan had won the Nobel Prize in Literature. I was very happy – I could hardly fall asleep because of it; it was quite surprising. At least, China now has its first Nobel Prize winner. Think about it, who will be the next one, and what kind of talent will it be? Given China’s current situation, the possibility of winning a Nobel Prize in the field of technology is very low. A more optimistic view is that it is more likely for Nobel Prizes to be awarded in areas where individual efforts do not require substantial funding or infrastructure support. Therefore, Mo Yan’s victory is both reasonable and surprising; there wasn’t enough attention paid to this area, so it was unexpected. It can also be seen as a reward for his independent thinking. If China is to see Nobel Prizes in the field of science and technology, it will take a long time – at least 30 years. The so-called prestigious universities can no longer be relied on; they have lost their core principles and purpose, making it difficult to produce great scholars. It’s uncertain what will happen with Southern University of Science and Technology. I really hope that the next winner will be one of its students, and ideally it should be in a scientific or technological field – that would be great.
We’re not part of the Nobel Tile judging committee; how could we possibly know who will receive the next tile? :o
To correct that: it was the literary award with Chinese citizenship at the time of the first award
Who will win the next Nobel Peace Prize? The EU, Obama, Romney, Putin? Still Yoshihiko Noda? The Nobel Prize is becoming increasingly ridiculous; it’s better not to have it. I’m still looking forward to China’s “Nobel Prize”.
I wonder how many more years it will take before China gets a Nobel Prize
Whether the Nobel Prize is awarded or not is none of the Chinese people’s business; they should focus on their own basic needs such as food, clothing, shelter, healthcare, and education. Who knows, one day when the communist regime collapses, they might not even have anything to ask for as alms.
What was said upstairs is correct, but this requires the joint efforts of all of us P-users
