Chapter 668 Turing Award! ? (Seeking monthly votes)

Panshan Group Headquarters.

After Liu Tao finished his work, he browsed through the domestic and foreign news briefs.

The work in this area was naturally organized by the secretariat to facilitate him to understand major domestic and foreign events.

The major domestic event was that, with the approval of the state, Magic City officially announced the development and opening of Pudong. The Magic City Pudong New Area Development Office is about to be listed, and the Magic City Pudong New Area Development Design Institute will also be established.

Of course, there are some things, but they are not too big.

The foreign affairs are mainly the Iran-Iraq War. There has been a dawn of peace in the Iran-Iraq War. The two sides held the second round of peace talks and reached some agreements. The third round of negotiations will be held in mid-June.

From the first round of negotiations to the second round of negotiations, the depth of the negotiations between the two sides has continued to deepen, and more and more consensus has been reached. It is obvious that the two sides are not far from reaching a real ceasefire agreement.

Liu Tao looked at this information and pondered slightly.

He judged that the Iran-Iraq War will probably achieve peace this year, end the Iran-Iraq War, and thus end this nearly 10-year war. At most, it will be delayed until next year.

After all, the two sides have reached a lot of consensus and don’t want to continue fighting.

At this time, Liu Tao's landline rang, and Liu Tao picked up the phone.

At this time, it is very convenient to make phone calls. People all over the country and even the world can make phone calls. In recent years, the field of communications has made rapid progress, and communications have become more and more convenient. Phones have entered thousands of households, not only in cities, but also in towns and rural areas.

Even in many places, you can make and receive calls at any time with a mobile phone. The current mobile phones are not the style of the old big brothers, but are about the size of a palm, much smaller in shape, and much lighter in weight, which is very convenient to carry with you.

The call was from the foreign affairs department, telling Liu Tao something that surprised Liu Tao, that is, the highest honor in the computer industry, the Turing Award, was awarded to him, and asked him if he wanted to go to the United States to receive the award.

Liu Tao was quite surprised.

It was not unexpected that he was qualified for the Turing Award, but that the Americans were willing to award him the Turing Award.

With his publicly published papers and contributions in computer hardware and software, he could have received this honor long ago. However, there was no news. Obviously, the Americans were unwilling to award this award to the Chinese, especially Liu Tao was still a member of the system.

The Turing Award, also known as the A.M. Turing Award, was established by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) in 1966 to reward individuals who have made important contributions to the computer industry. Its name is taken from the pioneer of computer science, British scientist Alan Mathison Turing.

Because the Turing Award has extremely high requirements for award-winning conditions and the award process is extremely strict, generally only one computer scientist is awarded each year, and only in a few years do two collaborators or scientists who have made contributions in the same direction share this award. Therefore, it is the most prestigious and noble award in the computer industry, and is known as the "Nobel Prize in the Computer Industry".

Of course, the Turing Award is mainly an honor, and its status in the industry is very high. As for the prize money, it is actually not much, and the prize money is only 20,000 US dollars.

Liu Tao couldn't help but show a thoughtful look. Although he was surprised to win this award, he was not excited.

He has won all the honors he should have won in the country in more than ten years.

He actually doesn't care much about overseas awards, whether it is the Nobel Prize or the Turing Award.

Because these awards have too many political factors.

"Forget it, there is no need to accept the award. I am not suitable to go abroad." Liu Tao said slowly.

With his status, he needs a lot of security forces in China. He has a lot of secrets and is not suitable to go abroad to accept the award.

It is already very remarkable to be able to go to Hong Kong and Macau.

Going to the United States is not suitable. Maybe it will be a waste of time.

Liu Tao still takes his life very seriously and will not joke with his life.

"Comrade Liu Tao, if it is about safety, please rest assured that the leader will go abroad to visit the United States at that time, and you can go with him." A clear voice came from the phone, "and your acceptance of the award is also a great encouragement for the country and the nation."

At present, only a few people know that Liu Tao won the Turing Award. After all, it has not been announced to the whole world. It has only spread in the top computer circles, but it is indeed shocking enough.

In recent years, China has actively participated in international sports competitions and international academic conferences to integrate into this world, to prove itself, and to prove that China is no worse than any other country.

Liu Tao pondered for a moment, and then said, "If that's the case, you can make the arrangements."

After communicating about going abroad, Liu Tao began to make arrangements.

After arranging the affairs of Panshan Group, Liu Tao once again took a special plane to Beijing. Then he and his leader took a special plane and set off for the United States together.

New York, the economic center of the United States, is also the largest and most prosperous international metropolis in the world.

This is a paradise for the rich and a hell for the poor.

There is a saying that goes, if you love her, send her to New York, because it is heaven; if you hate her, send her to New York, because it is hell.

There are both billionaires who live a luxurious life and poor homeless people here.

Looking down at New York from the plane, the prosperity is very clear when looking down from the air.

Even the prosperous Hong Kong today is far behind it.

Although Hong Kong is prosperous, it is too small!

And New York is very big. It is an international metropolis and an urban circle.

After the special plane arrived at the New York airport, they checked into the accommodation that had been arranged. The security force was at the highest level.

Liu Tao felt a little uncomfortable. Even though he was physically strong, he was not used to the jet lag.

Fortunately, the award ceremony was tomorrow.

The leader paid a friendly visit to the city of New York, and Liu Tao stayed in his residence to watch the news.

At this time, the news in the United States was full of enthusiasm. It was the fierceness of bombing the Japanese and knocking them down. American companies were buying back the assets purchased by the Japanese.

How arrogant the Japanese were in the United States before, how embarrassed they were at this time.

Those Japanese companies withdrew funds one after another to stabilize the stock prices of their own companies, and the assets originally purchased were sold one after another.

Liu Tao shook his head slightly. He did not participate in this feast because the United States was the territory of the Americans. If he entered the scene to grab food, I am afraid that the Americans would ignore the rules and make him spit it out obediently.

Just like now, the Japanese have suffered huge losses in this process of buying and selling, because the Americans are trying their best to lower the price. If they don’t lower the price, the Japanese can’t sell it at all, and no one will take it.

The Japanese bought it at the beginning, but now they are forced by the Americans to spit out the principal and interest, which is definitely a huge loss.

This also reminds Liu Tao that it’s okay to make a small fortune in other people’s territory, but you must be low-key and never be high-profile.

Making money quietly is the truth.
