Why do all Nobel Prize winners in China have to become foreign citizens?

This has nothing to do with patriotism. People who care about science often don't care about these things. What they care about is their reputation in academia, and whether they can continue the research they like and yearn for.

It is true that some people go abroad for the purpose of immigration from the day they go abroad, but there are still many people whose original intentions are not that simple. There are three common reasons.

Generally speaking, once foreign scientific departments find that a foreigner has unique scientific research ability, they will seduce him with various conditions, and the corresponding condition is to join the nationality and work for the country. Many people have been defeated by this move, so when you say unpatriotic, you don't mean unpatriotic, but love money too much.

In addition, there is also a situation that cannot be underestimated, that is, China is a formalist country, and everything is just a form, not a pragmatic one, as long as it looks good on the surface. As a result, many people who devote themselves to studying knowledge can't get their due status and reputation, while those who can't compare with them academically, but are eager to get access, even use their relationships to steal their own scientific research results, which forces them to find one.

There is one last situation, which is not easy to accept, and that is forced by life. This is different from the first one. That is to say, although they are engaged in scientific work and have made small achievements, they can't meet the needs of themselves or their wives and children at home, and their wives have repeatedly urged various expenses. In desperation, they have to get their wives and children around, but the only way to achieve this goal is to get local nationality first, so
