Tik Tok "Fairy" scientist, relies on "eat" on CCTV! Bai Yansong Comments: Please continue to eat more

The good things of

never dissipate. Some people gain tens of jins by eating, but some people are on CCTV by "eating"!

No, the associate researcher Lu Jing of the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences who has been living deep in the laboratory for a long time (teacher Lu playing with bones, ID: paleofish), because at Douyin eats, drinks and plays with bones ,I'm angry! Recently, CCTV's "News Weekly" program reported on Lu Jing's story. CCTV's famous mouth Bai Yansong said in the program: "I really hope that Lu Jing will not stop talking, and definitely not be vegetarian, the more abundant he eats. The better..."

Lu Jing was interviewed by CCTV News Weekly. In the video

, a table surrounded by pots of yellow stewed chicken, fish head cakes, and turtle soup. Everyone in the office had a good taste. When you think this is just a boring Vlog, the plot suddenly reverses: after a feast, the person in the video actually starts to wear a white coat, deboning, washing, drying, and splicing the food debris until The scattered bones became a complete skeleton teaching aid.

CCTV "News Weekly" reported that Lu Jing

"foodie" is also popular science, bone residue spells 1 million likes

foodie often, through eating and broadcasting can popular science esoteric biological knowledge but rare. As a researcher at the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Teacher Lu Jing and her friends are such unusual foodies. They ate yellow braised chicken and spelled out a model of Archaeopteryx; they ate fish head puffs and spelled out a fat head fish brain model; they drank turtle soup and spelled out a skeleton model of a turtle...

Out of the ordinary tricks. In May of last year, Lu Jing, who focused on fish paleontology, and her friends combined the bone residues after eating fish head buns, and after most of the day, they united and joined together to form a completed fat head fish skeleton model. Looking back now, Lu Jing still finds it funny. Lu Jing said: "Because we chose a super difficult beginning for ourselves. Fish bones are the most common and the most complex among common animals, and the fish bones that have just been eaten. The greasy ones are not easy to match and sticky at all. The first video took seven or eight hours.”

In the end, nearly seven hours of video material were condensed into a one-minute Douyin short video. This first short video released on May 23 last year became the debut of @玩骨头的卢老师 for the vibrato. One hour after the video was sent, when Lu Jing opened the backstage of her Douyin account, she was shocked. 1 million, more than 1 million traffic, the number of fans is still beating. Lu Jing said, "At that time, the whole person was like dreaming." And that night, the short vibrato video of Pantouyu reached more than 4 million views and received hundreds of thousands of likes.

Although this surprise is unexpected, Lu Jing's playing with the bones on Douyin is "a long time premeditated". In May last year, four authoritative organizations, the Science Communication Bureau of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Science Popularization Department of the Chinese Association for Science and Technology, the China Science News Agency, and the China Science and Technology Museum, and ByteDance jointly launched the "DOU Knowing Plan" for the popularization of short video science for all people. Invited as a judge of popular science content. It was originally just a part of daily work, but as the contact with Douyin gradually deepened, as a researcher, Lu Jing also began to have the idea of ​​using short videos to do paleontology science. How

makes the public interested in unpopular subjects is indeed a difficult problem. @玩骨头的卢老师 The first issue of the knowledge about fish bone models, if you directly talk about the structure of these bones, a lot of background knowledge will be daunting. "We thought of cutting in through a familiar angle." Lu Jing said, "Of course, the most common opportunity for everyone to come into contact with bones is at the table. I want to assemble common food bones to arouse everyone's interest."

followed. In June, Lu Jing and her friends spliced ​​and restored the chicken bones left over from eating yellow braised chicken, and made a small video and posted it on Douyin. To everyone's surprise, this short vibrato video received over 1 million likes, 18,000 comments and nearly 4,000 reposts. In September last year, Lu Jing’s Douyin ushered in a super 1 million likes Douyin blast model, they put together a turtle bone model after drinking the turtle soup, and this video is the ancestor of the turtle. ? The first in a series of short videos.

Short videos of popular science knowledge are both an interest and a responsibility

The public can not only contribute to scientific research, but also cultivate a scientific way of thinking. This is also the reason why Lu Jing is willing to put down her body and go "on the spot" to do science popularization. In her view, only by using the spirit of scientific research to do science popularization can provide the public with rigorous and precise guidance. In an interview with the media, Lu Jing said: “I hope that some people who really do research will do science popularization and use a scientific attitude to do science popularization. I hope that our generation can do the best research while also doing science popularization. Can make good science popularization. Hope that our next generation will be attracted by good science popularization content in the future.” Because on the Douyin platform, Lu Jing has become the favorite of kindergarten children because she has become a popular knowledge internet celebrity. Parents.

Lu Jing's Archaeopteryx skeleton model

made of chicken bones. As a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Lu Jing is now mainly studying the evolution of ancient fish from 420 million to 360 million years ago. Lu Jing's favorite is the rare ancient fish-Latimer. She posted an inside page of the anime "Dragon Ball" on the bookshelf, showing Wukong and a big fish. Lu Jing said, "When I was a child reading this comic, I was very impressed with this fish, and only a few decades later I realized that this is the Latimai fish."

Human ancestors were fishes, but many people don’t understand This history. "Knowing where we came from will help us understand where we are going in the future." Lu Jing said, "In the long history of vertebrate evolution, humans are only a trivial part. We are not the ruler of everything, but nature. One of them.”

Lu Jing’s passion for science popularization is actually mainly out of a sense of responsibility. Lu Jing said: “I think scientists have the responsibility to do science popularization. If scientists encounter rumors, they should speak up; if If you want to bring good things to the public, you have to devote energy and time. In fact, our country’s paleontology research is now at the world’s leading level. But in the field of public science, we are still far behind compared to Western developed countries and have a lot of homework. To make up."
