Why did Yuan Longping fail to be elected as an academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences for many times?

Professor Yuan Longping had a fruitful life. He not only solved the food problem in China, but also created super rice. I also went to Dubai to do scientific research, finally! Yuan Longping has cultivated drought-resistant super rice in such a barren and arid land where water is more expensive than oil.

This is first attributed to the pedantic academic theory in China. Everyone knows that Yuan Longping, who pays attention to practical operation, has a low education. I graduated from technical secondary school. At that time, it was ok to graduate from technical secondary school, but in the new era, it was a particularly low diploma. Therefore, there is no advantage in competing with some doctors and masters, and although there is no explicit provision in the selection rules, what is secretly valued is academic qualifications.

Yuan Longping once offended some judges of Chinese Academy of Sciences because of hybrid rice. He didn't want to please them either, so he suffered a big loss in the selection process.

As we all know, Yuan Longping's achievements in hybrid rice all come from his personal cultivation in the experimental field. However, in the selection of academicians, in addition to their own scientific research achievements, they also need to read papers. China's traditional academic view is that a large number of papers prove a person's scientific research ability. To publish a paper, you need English. Yuan Longping's English and Chinese abilities are at a disadvantage compared with his own scientific research achievements.

No matter academicians, ordinary professors, even doctors, masters and undergraduates, there must be papers. As a well-known postdoctoral fellow, the basis of annual salary adjustment comes from the identification of professional titles, papers and projects and the sum of the influencing factors of papers! Professor Yuan Longping graduated from technical secondary school, and his English language is average.
