In the report, academician Wang Enge used simple and captivating expressions to share the establishment and development of classic physics with everyone present, arousing the keen interests of students in attendance. Furthermore, he described how modern physics got rid of the thought of classic physics which laid the foundation for the consequent scientific and technological innovation and will have a lasting and profound effect on human future.   

Through the interaction, Wang Enge had sincere communication involving various aspects with teachers and students in attendance and used plain but significant expressions to encourage them to conduct research in a scrupulous way, to explore bravely and to devote themselves to innovation.

The teachers and students in attendance expressed that the catching words, scrupulous attitude to science, accessibility and the insightful thoughts on physics of Academician Wang Enge impressed them a lot. During the report, the whole audience broke into rounds of thunderous applause.
