I am devoted to scientific research, but you want to trick me into having a love relationship?

Chapter 725 Some people say you are a science fiction writer?
In December, the average temperature in Stockholm, Sweden is -1°C to 1°C, slightly higher than in Kyoto, but still very cold.

On the morning of the 9th, after having breakfast with his family, Xu Qingzhou went to rehearse with the help of the staff.

Gu Zhizhong, Chu Jiangfeng, and others had long since disappeared. They had mentioned at yesterday's banquet that they would meet with some friends from the mathematics community in the morning.

They rehearsed in the morning, had lunch at the hotel to adjust their schedule, and then at 2 p.m., Xu Qingzhou, Song Yao, and others took a car to Caroline Medical School.

This is the only academic institution in Sweden responsible for implementing Nobel Prize-related scientific activities, and almost all Nobel laureates give lectures here.

The Nobel Lectures are scheduled before the award ceremony, usually between December 7 and 9, with the specific dates determined by the committee based on the arrival time of the laureates.

The awards ceremony consisted of a formal ceremony only, without any speeches.

"There are quite a lot of people."

Xu Shouyun and the others once again felt a sense of solemnity.

Looking around, there was a dense crowd, and as they entered, many people's eyes fell on them, and reporters also came over with their cameras and microphones.

The Karolinska Institute's auditorium has a capacity of at least 1000 people, and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry is a major prize among Nobel Prizes. Xu Qingzhou's lecture was naturally packed, with even students from the school finding it difficult to get tickets.

Fortunately, as relatives and teachers of Nobel laureates, Xu Shouyun and others naturally have their place, right in the middle.

Song Yao straightened Xu Qingzhou's suit collar. "All done."

"I'm a little nervous." Xu Qingzhou squinted at the crowd waiting in the distance.

"Are you nervous?"

Song Yao seemed to have heard something unbelievable: this shameless guy was actually nervous?
Xu Qingzhou retorted, "Why can't I be nervous? If my wife gave me a sweet kiss or something at this moment, I'd probably be fine."

"."

"Hurry up and go up." Song Yao wrinkled her nose. Sure enough, this person was still unreliable.

Xu Qingzhou didn't joke around and gestured to the staff next to him that he was ready.

Amidst thunderous applause, he walked onto the stage.

He bowed slightly to express his gratitude, glanced around the auditorium, and then spoke in a deep voice:
"Dear Members of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, and fellow academics:"
Standing here today is not for personal glory, but to share the collective wisdom of humanity in solving the energy storage dilemma—the culmination of thousands of failures in lithium-ion battery laboratories.

Xu Qingzhou will deliver this speech entirely in Chinese. Of course, she has already submitted both Chinese and English versions of the speech to the committee beforehand, and an English interpreter will be available on-site.

"Dendrites are not simply byproducts of electrodeposition, but a deadly symphony of interfacial stress and ion concentration field. We have captured for the first time, through cryo-electron microscopy, the chain-like proliferation process of dendrites along grain boundary defects, and its explosive force is enough to pierce civilization's expectations for clean energy."

"Quantum spin-controlled catalysts can optimize electron migration pathways through spin polarization."

During his speech, Xu Qingzhou introduced the process of solving lithium dendrites and the shuttle effect, including the technical difficulties and teamwork, but did not go into too much detail.

Unlike academic presentations, speeches must also cater to the audience who are not professionals in the field.

"In addition, there is TiON-TiO quantum dot composite material."

“Similar to ‘ion traffic police,’ in order to make the battery more efficient, we have also built a three-dimensional traffic network inside the battery to avoid ‘traffic jam’ of ions.”

On stage, Xu Qingzhou spoke, his gaze sweeping across the faces of the audience, and he did indeed seem to have a moment of realization.

He won the Nobel Prize in his past life, but died suddenly before he could receive the award.

From 2014 to 2020, in less than six years, he once again stood in the world's academic temple. The audience listened attentively.

When scientists, especially Nobel laureates, discuss the "fundamental laws of the universe," even ordinary people who don't understand the theories are deeply moved by the breadth and depth of human wisdom.

Among those present, Xu Shouyun and others were probably the most moved, as it was the first time they had ever seen Xu Qingzhou give a speech under the spotlight.

"This boy"

Old Xu sighed inwardly, "Don't even mention the ancestral graves emitting auspicious smoke, even if you blast them open, it won't help. This is completely a mystery."

The gene split has gone all the way to the maternal grandparents' house.

This time, they don't plan to post on social media or anything like that. Forget about social media, they're too busy keeping a low profile right now. They just want to live a peaceful life like ordinary people.

Song Shisong smiled, his tone tinged with pride: "I always thought Qingzhou was a promising kid. I always said I've never misjudged anyone in my life."

"Heh, I noticed that someone had a lot of opinions about Qingzhou a few years ago."

Zhang Junli ruthlessly exposed them.

"What father would be happy if his own cabbage was stolen?"

Song Shisong refuted this.

Zhang Junli shook her head, looked at the young man on the stage, and smiled. As parents, they were happy to see their daughter find a good home.

On one side, Song Lulu recorded two videos on her phone and "live-streamed" them to her roommates in the group chat.

"Every breakthrough in lithium battery safety is a resonance between Eastern wisdom and scientific evidence. What I want to say is: the future of human energy lies hidden in the vast universe of mutual learning among civilizations."

The speech lasted approximately 40 minutes from beginning to end.

Xu Qingzhou stopped, and enthusiastic applause erupted from the audience.

Next, I will participate in a group interview with the media.

"Professor Xu, when will your lithium dendrite and shuttle effect technologies be commercially available? As you know, we are all struggling with energy issues."

"You should probably ask the world's major battery manufacturers about this," Xu Qingzhou said helplessly.

A Reuters reporter asked, "Professor Xu, what do you think of Professor Snow from Oxford saying that you are a scientist, but even more so a science fiction writer?"

Xu Qingzhou laughed: "No, we're more radical than science fiction writers—what they write on paper, we put into batteries."

"Professor Xu, you are working on controlled nuclear fusion, but compared to other experiments in this field, it doesn't seem to have any advantages."

Xu Qingzhou said, "Madam, if 'advantage' is the standard for whether an experiment can continue, 90% of the world's experiments would have to be canceled. Exchanging current exploration for future possibilities is one of the tasks of scientists."

There is bias in Europe and America. For example, a BBC reporter asked: "Professor Xu, you claim that 'solving lithium dendrites and the shuttle effect is a pure scientific breakthrough,' but your research is funded by the Chinese government, and your current research institute is also provided by the Chinese government. Does this mean that the Nobel Prize has been used as a political propaganda tool?"

"I suggest you take a look at our published papers. If you understand them, you'll find that all the data is based on experiments, not on who funded it."

Xu Qingzhou replied calmly.
