In 1960, the Soviet Union unilaterally tore up 600 contracts signed with China, and withdrew all its experts in China, taking away all the drawings, plans and materials.
Before leaving, the Soviet experts said to our scientific and technological personnel with some ill will: "Look at you to clean up this pile of scrap copper and iron!"Without us, you won't be able to build it in another 20 years. ”
In the 1960s, when China's nuclear research was at a critical juncture, because of some political differences, the Soviet Union withdrew all experts at once, realizing that China must independently develop its own nuclear technology.
But at this juncture, the lack of experts seriously affected the process of research and development, and everyone was very worried, but fortunately, there was a Soviet expert who had a good relationship with China's scientific researchers, and he quietly said to our personnel: "Don't forget, you have Wang Ganchang's talent." ”
This sentence in his mouth seems to have opened up the second vein of my country's governor. At that time, Wang Ganchang was famous all over the world at that time, and in some fields, he created the world's first achievements, so the country urgently summoned Wang Ganchang, who was studying abroad, to return to China to participate in the research of nuclear power.
When Wang Ganchang learned that the country needed him, he resolutely gave up everything abroad and followed the call of the motherland to return to China.
In the early stage of nuclear research, China lacked relevant technology and equipment, and relied very much on Soviet experts, but the departure of Soviet experts did not shake our determination to develop nuclear weapons.
After Wang Ganchang returned to China, the state made it clear to him that for the sake of absolute secrecy, he must disappear in front of the world. This means that he can't contact his family or even use his real name.
Wang Ganchang did not hesitate, he gave an answer on the spot, "I am willing to pledge the country with my body". Since then, there has been one less famous physicist Wang Ganchang in the world, and one more Wang Jing who has devoted himself to nuclear research.
In this way, Wang Ganchang came to the desert research and development core ** in the northwest with a few simple clothes and two pairs of glasses, and stayed here for nearly 17 years.
Under the leadership of Wang Ganchang, a group of outstanding scientists, such as Deng Jiaxian, Qian Sanqiang, Zhu Guangya, and others, united as one, overcame many difficulties, and finally developed the first atomic bomb in China with its own ability. Not only that, but China also went on to develop the first artificial earth satellite and a man-made hydrogen bomb. Their efforts have elevated China to a nuclear power and strengthened the country's national defense strength.
When we see these scientific research achievements thrown out one by one, each of them makes the Chinese full of confidence, and we use our strength to tell the world: China has awakened!
At this time, Wang Ganchang's mood is very complicated, for this moment Wang Ganchang has worked hard for many years, he wiped his tears, how many scientists have been incognito like him in the past ten years, and it is difficult to return home, at this moment how much he wants to share his feelings with relatives and friends, and tell them that he has participated in these studies.
China can have no one to call "Wang Ganchang," but it cannot do without "two bombs and one satellite."China can do without the Nobel Prize, but not without the nuclear shield of a great power.
