When a theory has been sufficiently clarified, when a report will win such a large-scale applause in the speech, the questioning session is somewhat redundant.

Of course, there are still many people who stand up and ask questions in the questioning session.

For these problems, Lu Zhou also answered them in detail.

This is undoubtedly an inspiring improvement compared to a m conference that has no hands.

This at least shows that the audience present is real, listening to his theory, not just to cover up his ignorance with applause.

After the report was over, several doctors from Humboldt University ran to the podium and excitedly asked Lu Zhou to sign, in order to commemorate this moment that might be included in the history of chemistry.

Although he did not think that history would record such trivial matters, Lu Zhou satisfies their request and scribbled his name on their textbooks.

From the front of the stage to the back of the scene, Professor Etter came over to Lu Zhou and said in a serious voice.

"Whether the Nobel Committee agrees with the value of your theory, I will recommend your name to the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences."

Lu Zhou squatted slightly and then laughed.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome," looked at Lu Zhou, and Professor Etter smiled comfortably. "It's us who said thank you. Thank you for bringing this report to Berlin. I haven't heard such a good report for a long time. Although I can't guarantee that you will win the Nobel Prize, I feel that at least the Nobel Prize nominated is yours."

According to the Nobel Prize selection rules, the former Nobel Prize winners are qualified to recommend candidates.

However, there is nothing to be excited about. After all, there are usually 1,000 to 2,000 candidates selected each year. After two rounds of screening, there is only one Nobel Prize.

In principle, the referee cannot be disclosed, and the nomination information is strictly confidential within 50 years.

However, in the initial recommendation, this rule was not strictly observed.

According to a Nobel laureate's award speech, at least in the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, there is a joke such as "Oh, I recommended you to the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences", and the stalkers usually read in uneasiness. The longest year in life until the final result of October is revealed.

Of course, the Peace Prize and the Literature Prize need not be mentioned.

Even the bookmakers can "guess" the list of nominees in advance and open before the list is announced. These two awards have long been played.

Lu Zhou joked: "You shouldn't tell me that there is no surprise for me."

Etelhaha smiled and said: "It's just a nomination. Don't be too excited. When you get to my age, it's good to be able to take Nobel's medal home."

Lu Zhou made a helpless expression.

"This is also... too shocking people."

It is not realistic to win the Nobel Prize with a novel theory. Many things take time to test.

But he thinks that even so, he probably doesn't have to wait for that long...

......

For the Nobel Prize, Lu Zhou was not in a hurry, nor did he have any anxiety because of Professor Ettel’s recommendation.

He feels that for himself, the medal is an endorsement of his own research, but it is not the motivation that prompted him to engage in a research.

He is still young and the road ahead is still very long.

Peace of mind to do your own research, and wait for the fate, it is his thing, sooner or later.

Regardless of how Lu Zhou viewed his theory and the medal hanging over his head, the entire theoretical chemistry community was almost sensational after the end of the report.

This sensational response is far more intense than when Lu Zhou’s paper was first published in "jacs."

Like the millennium puzzle in mathematics, there are also problems in the chemical industry that need to be solved urgently.

However, these problems are not as generalized as simple mathematics, and even the question of "who is more important" is controversial in various universities.

However, even if the dispute exists, in some places the international theoretical chemistry community has reached a consensus.

For example, as the first of the four major problems of chemistry in the 21st century, one of them is how to establish a time-dependent multi-body quantum theory and statistical theory of precise, effective and universally applicable chemical reactions.

This seems to be a bit sloppy, and the description in plain language is how to accurately calculate the rate of chemical reactions? How to determine the route of chemical reaction? How do you determine which catalysts you need?

And, how to stand at the height of the theory, answer all the questions like this.

The theoretical model of the electrochemical structure interface corresponds to a certain type of problem in the proposition.

To be an inappropriate but very vivid metaphor, the establishment of this theoretical model, for the "four major century problems in the chemical industry," is probably equivalent to the Hardy-Rittelwood theorem to the Riemann conjecture.

The Hardy-Lettlewood Theorem determines that the number of non-trivial zeros in a certain interval is not less than kt, and the "theoretical model of electrochemical interface structure" determines "microchemistry of a certain type of chemical reaction." Reaction theory."

Immediately after the conclusion of Lu Zhou’s report, the Interdisciplinary Task Force established by the Max Planck Institute for the Advancement of Science in Germany on the “theoretical model of the interface of electrochemical structures” announced its support for the theory.

What is more interesting is that, just after Mapu’s stated position, Professor Martin Capras, who had previously published scientific comments on Nature, is optimistic about the theory, and is almost immediately behind in the chemical world. A paper was published in the top issue "jacs".

In the paper, Professor Caplas cited the previous paper published by Lu Zhou in "jacs", which gives a clear explanation for the zero-charge potential of polycrystalline metal electrodes from a theoretical point of view.

Prior to this, this was seen as a classic problem in the field of electrochemistry and theoretical chemistry.

Although the existence of "zero-charge potential of polycrystalline metal electrodes" is unquestionable, there has been no conclusion about the formation mechanism and the chemical essence under microscopic conditions.

However, under the framework of the "theoretical model of electrochemical interface structure", it seems that it is not a difficult matter to solve this problem. At least, it is much easier to study this problem than from the perspective of "first principle calculation."

Obviously, this Nobel Prize has already seen the theory as a success two months ago, so he immediately "beed" on it. Therefore, this paper will be issued in such a timely manner.

It seems that he is obviously bet on it now.

It is not just Martin Capras who is interested in this new theory.

With the end of the report, more and more researchers in the field of theoretical chemistry, and even researchers in the field of application, have shown great interest in this theory.

Compared with the "kohn-sham method" and the "density functional theory", which have large differences in calculation results and reality, the theoretical model of the electrochemical interface structure is simply designed to study the electrochemical quality of the material surface. It has strong guidance for the research in the field of polymers.

Especially for PhDs in computational chemistry and computational materials science, the emergence of this new theory is undoubtedly a boon for them.

At least, their bosses now have another reason to leave them in the research team.

Just when the outside world guessed that the landing boat would become the youngest Nobel Prize winner because of this theory, the German Chemical Society has made a decision in silence.

In recognition of the outstanding contribution of this theoretical model to chemistry, the German Chemical Society decided, after discussion, to award the founder of this theory, a remarkable medal...
