1. Mathematics mechanization method
Inventor: Wu Wenjun, reason for election: Injecting vitality into traditional Chinese mathematics.
After the "Cultural Revolution", Wu Wenjun's research interests turned to the history of ancient Chinese mathematics, and he initiated a research work called mathematical mechanization. In the context of the great development of computer technology, he inherited and developed the tradition of ancient Chinese mathematics and turned to research on machine proofs of geometric theorems, which completely changed the face of this field and was known as the "Wu Method".
2. Hybrid rice
Inventor: Yuan Longping, reason for election: the second green revolution, solving the problem of global hunger
The Western world says that hybrid rice is "Oriental Magic Rice". His achievements not only solved the Chinese people's feeding problem to a large extent, but are also considered to be the magic weapon to solve the world hunger problem in the next century. Internationally, hybrid rice is even regarded as China's fifth greatest invention after the four great inventions, and is hailed as the "second green revolution".
3. Artificially synthesized bovine insulin
Inventor: Collective, reason for election: the first time to artificially synthesize a living body
On September 17, 1965, Chinese scientists Crystallized bovine insulin was synthesized artificially for the first time in the world. The synthesis of artificial bovine insulin marks a critical step in mankind's journey to understand life and explore the mysteries of life. Its significance and impact are huge.
This is the first time in human history that living proteins have been artificially synthesized. In the past, the world generally believed that living things were natural, and most believed that artificially synthesizing living things was impossible. The Chinese made it possible for the first time.
4. The theory of land-phase oil formation
Inventor: Li Siguang Group, reason for election: taking off the hat of China being poor in oil
China won the victory in Daqing, Dagang and Large oil fields have been built in succession in other places, and the theory of continental phase oil formation plays an indispensable role. Previously, people had always believed that large oil fields could only appear in marine strata. Westerners confirmed that China is oil-poor because some of China's large Mesozoic and Cenozoic basins are mostly continental deposits.
5. Chinese character laser phototypesetting
Chinese character laser phototypesetting technology is a major breakthrough in basic theory, which has brought a revolutionary change to the publishing and printing industry and greatly improved the printing and publishing industry. efficiency. While promoting the spread of Chinese culture, it also had a profound impact on the printing and publishing industry in Japan, South Korea and other countries.
