More important than the Nobel Prize

Victor Grinha was born into a wealthy family in France, where his father ran a huge shipbuilding company. Due to the wealth of the family, coupled with the doting and pamper of the parents, the teenage Grinia became a veritable playboy, he not only has no ideal, but also has no ambition, and only mixes with some young and beautiful girls every day.

One day, a grand dance was held in Grynia's hometown of "Serburg". At the dance, a young and beautiful girl deeply attracted Grynia, so he couldn't wait to go up and chat up the girl and wanted to ask her to dance. Unexpectedly, the girl only glanced at him scornfully and paid him no more attention. Grinha suddenly became dumbfounded in the eyes of the crowd. He had been spoiled from a young age, and he had never suffered such humiliation. At this moment, he was introduced: "She is the Countess of Portoli, who has just arrived from Paris, and does not yet know your Excellency's name."

Through the explanation of others, Grinya became even more interested and took the initiative to introduce herself. But Podoli said coldly, "Never mind, I have heard so much about you!" You'd better stand back, I don't want to be obstructed by ignorant playboys!"

Baudori's words, like an electric current, hit Grinia's heart deeply. At that very moment, his soul seemed to awaken from a deep sleep. Looking back on those past years of dissoluteness, he suddenly blushed. So, he decided to bid farewell to the past those unbearable life, reborn, catch up with, in order to make up for the past lack. He quickly left a letter to his parents: "Do not pursue my whereabouts, please let me study hard, I believe that in the near future, I will return you a son who is no longer mediocre!" Then, he quietly left the well-off family.

Grinia was not afraid of hardships, he moved to Lyon, he first paid a visit to a famous scholar named Louis Bovel as a teacher, after two years of hard work, he actually made up the course delayed in the past, and entered the University of Lyon as a transfer student. He vowed never again to let this opportunity slip away, and at university he won the admiration of Philip Barr, the then authority on organic chemistry. Under his guidance, Grinha verified some of Barr's past experiments, and later found and corrected some of Barr's past mistakes. Later, he created the famous Grignard reagent, Grinya finally succeeded! In this way, he was transformed from an idle playboy to a world-renowned chemist.

Since then, Grinya has been out of control, scientific research results like a fountain gurgling. He published more than 600 scientific papers in his lifetime. For his contributions, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded him the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1912. What is more, he soon received a congratulatory letter from Countess Portoli, who had been so contemptuous of him in those days, with a single sentence: "I will always love you!"

Although only six words, but greatly shocked Grinha's soul, later, he often took out the letter to read, as a motivation to keep moving forward. Grinia believes that although the congratulatory letter of Bodoli is short, he feels that these six words are more meaningful than winning the Nobel Prize, because it is from these simple six words that he understands the most precious thing for a man's life! That is, everyone has two choices in life: to be a fly to be hated; Or become an enviable goshawk! No matter how low a person's starting point is, as long as he is willing to step by step towards success, one day, he will be like a goshawk hovering in the vast brilliant sky of life! However, from "fly" to "goshawk" and never overnight, there is also a long transition, in the transition to find the entry point of life, Grinia did it, because, in the face of Podoli's contempt, he was awakened by Zen, from then on, aware of his own mediocre efforts to great and excellent breakthrough, he finally looked at the entry point of life, He succeeded in winning the success he dreamed of. In fact, his success is not so much winning the Nobel Prize in chemistry, but rather he won a six-word praise from people who once scorned him!

More important than the Nobel Prize is sometimes just one person's recognition of another!
