2163: C2163 The Significance of the Award

C2163 The Significance of the Award

Of course, Druitt still didn't answer the questions of the crowd. His eyes were still clear and his expression was calm. There was even a faint smile on his face.

His eyes swept across the crowd and said with a smile, "Since everyone wants to know the reason, I'll tell you."

"First of all, I think everyone understands that the Science Breakthrough Award is not a business award. It is an academic award."

"And it was created to honor those who made contributions to academia."

"His roots are academia! Only by taking root in academia can he survive. "

Druitt paused for a moment before continuing, "But what I want to say is that so far, the Science Breakthrough Award has been infected with too much commercial atmosphere."

"If this continues, it will definitely cause a huge loss to the value of the award."

"Imagine if an award doesn't even have a value, how can it survive?"

"Think about it, compared to the first award held in 2012, how many people have participated in our award?"

What is the most important thing about an award?

It was not anything else, but the value of the award! It was the source of the award's vitality.

If an award didn't have the amount of gold, then he definitely wouldn't be able to last long!

And with his heart, the Science Breakthrough Award, he was facing this kind of dilemma.

His business aura was too strong, causing his academic aura to become weaker and weaker.

If this continued, it would definitely be eliminated and replaced by other awards.

"This..."

Hearing Druitt's words, everyone's faces darkened.

Undeniably, although Druitt's words were hard to hear, they made sense.

Compared to 2012, when the "Science Breakthrough Award" was held for the first time, more than 200 scholars participated.

Up until now, the number of people participating in this "Science Breakthrough Award" had only reached 87!

Although, as the number of people who won the award decreased, the chances of the remaining people winning the award would also increase greatly.

This was naturally a good thing for the remaining people.

However, this was not the case for the entire award.

The number of participants was also a measurement of the value of the award.

If there were no competitors for an award, then what was the point of this award?

No!

Absolutely not!

When they thought of this, they couldn't help but frown.

Silence!

Dead silence!

It was as if someone had pressed the mute button on the entire venue, causing it to become completely silent.0

At this moment, even the sound of breathing had disappeared...

One minute, five minutes, ten minutes... half an hour...

It was not until more than half an hour later that someone in the venue broke the silence.

"Professor Druitt, could it be that by letting Qin Luo participate in this award ceremony, we can turn the tide?" Someone in the crowd asked.

For a moment, everyone's attention was focused on Druitt. They really wanted to see what kind of answer Druitt would give.

But what surprised them was that Druitt actually shook his head!

Turn the tables?

To tell the truth, it was not possible.

Druitt shook his head and said, "To tell the truth, this is not possible!"

No... No!

When he said this, everyone was instantly dumbfounded.

This fellow, since he couldn't, then why did Druitt say so much? Was he thinking of doing nothing but bullsh * t?
