The passion of the scientific

Author: the workplace "reporter Wang Mo Shi Dan

Wang and don't know today will become the Microsoft of the banner, "" spirit, he must not agree with this "exaggeration" idea, but we have been in contact with him two reporters take back such information – Wang on his work is full of enthusiasm, "he is the kind of hope ' the scientific character of the nation '."

And Wang acquaintance, he both old a lot.

His face has a lot of freckles, walking a neck forward, a top a top body. No matter where you're talking to him, he always does not leave the topic of "science is innovation, not found", he has a very rigid view of science, research on China's current system and scientific talents mechanisms have many words to say, he feel that science and technology for China is a huge opportunity, "we have a lot of work to do!" Wang said. In short, he is a man full of faith. But even so, he is not very long ago a warning saying that you want to go on this road.

Wang was ideal practice is built aircraft, and protecting.

He is most proud of the work is a two story building week's watercolors, paintings to his 14-year-old. He scores flat, only let the teacher dismay that the whole class 50 students only three exams, he was over 70, the majority of students on the 90 minutes, he is 70 minutes. His high school newspaper, to commemorate the end of high school, he wrote the article into the later because the college entrance examination scores are also not ideal, it is recommended to report psychology students, "because of psychology can be a writer."

Later studies psychology dead is one thing, and it was suggested that he went to learn computer, he also built a computer course.

Finally, Kai-Fu Lee to find him asking him to Microsoft Research Asia, was invited on several occasions he is not willing to go until attended the Academy meeting, before finally made a decision.

This form of the resume is messy, it's all too easy you can easily put it down to luck or "gold will shine," but actually it seems that this biographical Wang is simple, easy to only one thing — driven by curiosity, the original, regardless of the results.

"Curiosity and interest is not quite the same.

Interested in what you might have on this, that no, you may find it helpful to you in the future, so interested. But curiosity is an original, it exists at all. "Get Wang learning psychology, for example, in fact he did not think that psychologists to ourselves now work what's so special about help, if psychology this course for any assistance he is protecting his curiosity," protecting me what to think about problems, it reminds me, why other disciplines such as physics is not taken into account, but have the discipline of Psychology a completely from the human perspective. ”

"There is a curiosity, a person to do, and probably will not be wrong.

"Wang said.

"My teacher told me that Research by Re and Search, just tell you to look over and over again.

"Here" reconsideration "is not as easy as you think, perhaps this" reconsideration "in life, and no results. Even in Einstein's diary, record a lot of up to two years or five yearsThe "detour". This in our daily work is difficult to imagine. Our daily work is full of deadline, all requests within the prescribed timeframe to complete the fear and pressures will let us crazy, but scientists are long in the face of such "make people crazy" State. How they have this unit for power?

There is no doubt that such a person to some extent will lose him innocent and carefree mood; but on the other hand, he can to a large extent, not others ' opinions, habits and judgment, and be able to avoid that kind of put his inner balance established in this way some unreliable of temptation.

"Doing research work, and most importantly patience.

For most of the scientific researchers, most so-called failure is no conclusion. I always tell our fellows, we can do a failed project, however, if the project can tell others enough information, this fact is very successful. For these things is not concluded, we will not adopt a shock approach, but the gain of experience to the next item. "Wang said. At Microsoft Research Asia, they need the talent to do creative things, instead of "complete" something, so they check for these professionals is also very long, perhaps three years, perhaps five years so that they can rest assured to do.

At Microsoft Research Asia, these "genius" of another gene is independent, they are free to select the item, even if the item has no commercial value, or even most people against it.

"Independence is important. Everyone has their own evaluation criteria, others think you are right or wrong, is not important, it is important that you know you did a really great things. "Wang said that he felt that at present, China's scientific research on a worryingly places we have lost their right to speak, we always used to say that our research results have reached the level of the United States which era. "So, you will slowly lose original, into certain enterprises to do China's Google, a certain overall imitation Toyota Automobile Research Institute. You can do with the United States as different it's not important. When you know what to do when you're really willing to take the time to do it, I think this may be more than anything else. ”

"One thing I talked to Dr. Shen (Shen to Yang, Microsoft Research Asia, former Dean) talk, we all have a common dream, that life can only do one thing.

"Wang said. The Microsoft Research Asia the consensus reached by the giant brain is very interesting: what is not important, the key is to do. They want to be immersed in a matter, the heart without distraction. They all know that limited life into unlimited research, you must put the daily 24-hour care. A professional managers will refuse your interview, reason is: Sorry, my time is not my; whereas a scientists reject your interview, reason is: Sorry, my time is my. Social events and banquets for Einstein "time feeding Zoo", but the young have numerous Fans of mathematicians taozhexuan refused interview, just a faint signal: experimental he is doing. Wang of fixed telephone, there are three digits of a phone, because he did not have much time to the calls of unknown origin have been, they know that life is short and even sufficient to complete a sufficient depth of the project.

Such a life? "

If you want to use the word ' hard ', probably because your life is not the same as with others, and then other people will find what you lost. "Wang said," actually, that's your choice. ”

Galileo stood in Pisa on the shot and a piece of tissue paper for free fall, Newton with Prism and bezel completed the dispersion experiment, many years ago, people were pricked and Prism, thermometer and interference meter, cloud Chamber and wooden railway wheel and cathode ray tube chasing the magic assumes that in my mind; then, they face the situation might be: verify the Earth is round.
