say, how many scientific and technological innovations and developments a country has, so you might as well see how many Nobel Prizes and Science Prizes their scientists have won.
As the saying goes, science and technology are the primary productive forces. For the development of science and technology, almost every country in the world has its own science and technology development plan, such as Japan's crazy Nobel Prize science plan: "30 Nobel Prizes in 50 years," what is the result?

Japan’s rumors: 30 Nobeda Prizes will be won in 50 years
19 years ago, in 2001, the Japanese government, in order to revitalize scientific and technological innovation and realize the dream of a scientific and technological power, proposed the second "Basic Science and Technology Plan" ", which determined a crazy goal: "won 30 Nobel Prizes in the next 50 years."
The Nobel Prize was awarded every year since 1901. It contains five awards, namely physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature and peace.

However, from 1901 to 2001, Japan, as an economic power, had only 9 Nobel Prize winners. At that time,
thought this plan was unbelievable not only for other countries, but even the Japanese felt crazy and unreasonable. The Japanese scientist Yoshiharu Noyori also criticized this plan for being brainless. The irony is that he had just finished cursing and won the Nobel Prize in learning that year. Is this slapped himself?
After the Japanese mouth of Kyogen, that is, from 2001 to the present, as a result, 19 people in Japan have won the Nobel Prize. As for the plan that took 50 years to complete, the Japanese took 19 years to complete more than half. In our country, only Tu Youyou and Mo Yan won the prize. Is this efficiency too shameful?

Several factors that Japan can win the Nobel Prizes
There are also reasons why Japan can win so many Nobel Prizes. At present, it seems that the key to their success is their huge investment in science and technology and their commitment to scientists. Attitude and rigor of knowledge.
1. Large investment in scientific research. We know that the United States is the world's number one technological power, and its annual R&D investment accounts for 2.8% of GDP, while Japan accounted for 3% of GDP in the ten years before 2015, ranking first among developed countries for 10 consecutive years.
2, respect talents . Japan's respect for scientists also makes others ashamed, and the social status of Japanese scientists is enviable. Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan has established a good atmosphere of advocating science and respecting scientists. For example, scientists, writers, and educators are printed on Japanese coins, not politicians, not the emperor. It is also evident in the appellation of intellectuals. For example, university professors can be called "Mr.", but ordinary people can't be called so, so that the Emperor of Japan is a famous fish scientist.

3, academically rigorous, ashamed of fraud. Japanese female scientist Haruko Obokata published two papers in "Nature" magazine, but the paper was later found to be fraudulent and was retracted by "Nature" magazine, becoming the largest in the international scientific community after the falsification incident of South Korean cloning father Huang Yuxi in 2005 Scandal. This led to the corresponding author, the 52-year-old famous Japanese scientist Yoshiki Sasui, who hanged himself and defended his academic dignity with his life. At the same time, Obokata Haruko, the current chairman of the Japan Institute of Physics and Chemistry, and the "Nobel Prize" winner, will resign.
In addition, Japanese education is more advanced, and universal education is waiting early. For example, in 1898, the enrollment rate of children in Japan reached 97%. After 1910, Japan had completely universalized national education. At that time, only the rich in our country could go to school.

Conclusion
I think that the Nobel Prize plan proposed by Japan in 2001 is very likely to be realized, and it will win 30 Nobel Prizes in 2051. Judging from the current progress, there have been 19 awards in the past 19 years, almost one every year. It can be seen that the development of Japanese technological innovation has not fallen, but has accelerated.
Although the Nobel Prize is suspected of operating in Western countries, it stillIt's fair. Only two people in China have won the Nobel Prize since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, and Japan’s first Nobel Prize winner, Yukawa Hideki , also won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1949. Now 71 years have passed, and as a result, Japan has 28 Nobel Prize winners. Do we feel ashamed?
