How difficult is Qian Xuesen s way back to China after leaving the United States?After being impriso

On October 1, 1949, at the founding ceremony, ** officially announced to the world that New China was founded, and the Chinese people finally stood up. A group of Chinese students who had gone abroad to study only to contribute to their return to China have returned to China. Mr. Qian Xuesen, who is far away on the other side of the Pacific, is also preparing to return to China, but the United States will not let him go.

In 1950, the ambitious Qian Xuesen arrived at the port and prepared to return to his homeland by cruise. However, he was arrested and thrown into prison by the American ** staff who suddenly rushed out. During his detention, Qian Xuesen was subjected to abuse and torture. But he still insisted on returning to New China.

Qian Xuesen's strong patriotism and desire to return to China to make contributions were known to *** and others, and asked the United States to release him through ***. The United States refused, they thought that Qian Xuesen alone could top 5 divisions in the United States.

In the end, New China paid a great price through many negotiations, and finally got the United States to agree to release Qian Xuesen's family to return to China. Qian Xuesen, who walked out of prison, completely changed, couldn't even speak, and lost his sense of language. What did the United States do to Qian Xuesen?

On the day he returned to China, Qian Xuesen received a mysterious telegram telling him to "don't get off the boat on the way." Qian Xuesen did so, did not move along the way, and returned safely to New China. Who sent him this mysterious telegram?Why did Qian Xuesen do this?

This secret was not revealed until fifty years later.

Qian Xuesen was born in a famous family, received an excellent education, and combined Chinese and Western. Under the influence of family education, he was determined to serve the country with academics since he was a child. So after graduating from college in 1934, he applied to study abroad and got a place to study in the United States with Gengzi's indemnity.

Qian Xuesen entered the aeronautics department of the California Institute of Technology Xi, and his teacher was the famous Feng. Carmen. It is said that during World War II, the US team arrested many German scientists. Feng. Carmen once took his apprentice Qian Xuesen to exchange professional theories with these German scientists, and the take-off of American science and technology is directly related to the fact that they have snatched a group of the world's top scientists. Qian Xuesen learned the most cutting-edge professional knowledge in American academic circles.

After graduating from school, Qian Xuesen has been teaching at the California Institute of Technology in the United States until he heard the great news of the founding of New China. Qian Xuesen told his wife Jiang Ying that he must return to the motherland and dedicate his life's work. He didn't expect at all that a difficult road back to China awaited him.

Before returning to China, Qian Xuesen participated in US national defense research, and he was a leading figure in the fields of jet technology, aeronautical engineering, and rocket and missile, and he could do his own thing. He was ready to return to China and find another opportunity to resign.

However, the United States took the first step, because the American team intervened in the Korean battlefield and regarded New China as a hostile object. Therefore, the Chinese in the United States, especially people like Qian Xuesen, are censored and treated as "spies". Qian Xuesen's secrecy license was revoked, and his national defense research was terminated.

Qian Xuesen didn't feel much about this. He originally planned to return to China, and the United States ** did this, which had no effect on him and no meaning. But then, what the United States did completely changed his life.

Qian Xuesen took the opportunity to resign and ask to return to China, but the United States did not allow it. Their reasons are very simple and straightforward"A person like Qian Xuesen can be worth five divisions no matter which country he goes to, except for the United States, he can't go. Either stay in the United States or kill him".

Qian Xuesen arrived at the port with his family and prepared to return to China by boat. The American ** staff who had been waiting here for a long time arrested Qian Xuesen and threw him in prison. The reasons they gave were very official, "illegal entry", "collusion with the Communist Party" and "espionage". The reasons they give are varied, and their approach is very different.

Since Qian Xuesen was accused of "illegal entry," the immigration bureau ruled to deport him from the United States. However, the US Department of Defense knew that what they were doing was to "trap" Qian Xuesen in the United States. Therefore, the immigration department's handling plan was rejected by the Ministry of Defense. After the Ministry of Defense intervened, the Immigration Department withdrew from the process.

The other two accusations hurt Mr. Qian for several years. The United States put Qian Xuesen under house arrest and used the methods they used to interrogate and abuse prisoners of war on a scientific researcher like Qian Xuesen.

A headlight shone on Qian Xuesen's eyes, and he could only sit on a small chair, like a prisoner, this kind of treatment.

A prosecutor in the United StatesGulqiu sternly asked Qian Xuesen who he was loyal to, and Qian Xuesen replied that he was only loyal to the Chinese people. Gurqiu asked the Chinese who they were referring to, and Qian Xuesen said that there were 450 million Chinese.

Gurqiu urged Qian Xuesen to return to places other than the mainland, such as Taiwan. But Qian Xuesen refused, he saidHe is only loyal to the Chinese people who do good deeds for the Chinese people. Qian Xuesen did not harden, but subtly expressed that he would only contribute to the Chinese people.

Then Gurchu asked him if he had taken the R&D theory report, and Qian Xuesen said that it was his personal R&D report, which belonged to him and he had the right to deal with it in a proper way. Gulchu said he could not take the reports with him. Qian Xuesen replied that he really couldn't take it away, so he could only keep it in his mind.

Then Gurqiu asked Qian Xuesen why he didn't go to Taiwan. Qian Xuesen told him that he had returned to the mainland to support his father, but his father was not in Taiwan. Filial piety comes first, and he can't be disloyal or unfilial.

Gurqiu continued to ask Qian Xuesen if there was a war between the United States and China, and whether Qian Xuesen would contribute to the Chinese side. Qian Xuesen replied that he was reluctant to answer such preset questions, because things did not happen, and there were no ifs.

Gulchu brutally demanded that Qian Xuesen give a clear answer to his hypothetical question, and Qian Xuesen again refused to answer. Gurqiu angrily confronted Qian Xuesen, demanding that he must answer. Qian Xuesen's good temper finally came to an end, and he told Gurqiu,"If a war breaks out between the United States and China, and this war is for the benefit of all the Chinese people, I will only be loyal to the Chinese people."

Gurqiu induces Qian Xuesen, "Can you let the United States ** make the decision for you".？Qian Xuesen said bluntly: ".No one can make decisions for me, it's my personal right. ”

Gurqiu has been designing problems to induce Qian Xuesen to speak against himself, so that the trumped-up charges against which Qian Xuesen is accused will be forcibly implemented. Qian Xuesen truly realized what a foreign country is, what means a deer as a horse, and what he once thought was a place of academic freedom, but it was so dark and unbearable inside.

Gurqiu didn't find a loophole in Qian Xuesen's words, he sighed"Qian Xuesen is extremely smart, and his wisdom is far beyond ours."

The first interrogation did not get what the United States wanted, and they followed up with three more interrogations. Gurchu devised a bunch of questions to induce Qian Xuesen to say what he wanted to hear, and then slander Qian Xuesen for trial. Qian Xuesen knows that he is not a flower in a greenhouse, and after staying in this country for so many years, Qian Xuesen may not be unaware of those "unspoken rules". So Qian Xuesen has been cleverly talking about him, and for the first time, Gurqiu realized that the scientific researcher in front of him was so difficult to deal with.

Gurqiu did not let Qian Xuesen's clever coping methods go unchecked, he tortured Qian Xuesen mentally and physically. I really don't know what kind of punishment was used, but I know that after Mr. Qian Xuesen came out of the interrogation room, he couldn't speak.

In late April 1951, the immigration bureau ruled that Qian Xuesen had been a member of the Communist Party in the United States and was to be deported according to the law, but he had confidential information in the United States, so the deportation was postponed. Leaving the country is not allowed and can only be carried out within a certain range.

On the day Qian Xuesen walked out of the interrogation room, his wife Jiang Ying went to pick him up. Jiang Ying hugged Qian Xuesen excitedly and talked to him. But Qian Xuesen seems to have changed as a different person, he has been silent and has not said a word.

Jiang Ying felt strange and asked him why he didn't speak. Looking at Qian Xuesen's body that had lost a lot of weight, Jiang Ying didn't want to think about the worst. Qian Xuesen still didn't speak, and Jiang Ying pulled him home. After returning home, Jiang Ying asked him what he had suffered, and Qian Xuesen spoke slowly, but he couldn't say a word. It's not that I don't want to say it, but it's as if I suddenly lost my ability to speak.

Jiang Ying's eyes were red, but she didn't know what to say, and she didn't want to force Qian Xuesen to speak. She probably guessed that her husband had been subjected to inhuman torture to become like this. Before Qian Xuesen returned to China, he rarely spoke.

The U.S. Intelligence Agency sent people to spy on him, and they listened to his **, and sent people to follow him. Qian Xuesen is clear, maybe it is precisely in order to return to the motherland as soon as possible, so he has become taciturn. Silence is sometimes a person's last confrontation, because no matter what you say, the other party may take it out of context and accuse Lu of being Ma An's trumped-up crime, so if you don't open your mouth, the other party may not be able to find this breakthrough.

Qian Xuesen was forbidden to go to many places, and he didn't want to go out for activities, it was too dangerous and dangerous, and who knew what the outcome would be tomorrow.

Qian Xuesen and Jiang Ying.

But Qian Xuesen's current predicament, he was eager to solve it, he wanted to release a distress signal to New China, but he was being watched, and he could only slowly think about how to escape. In 1950, when the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea broke out, the attention of the entire Chinese people was on this battle for the survival of 450 million Chinese.

The news that Qian Xuesen was sent back to New China by the United States *** shocked the whole country. The Chinese side issued a public statement condemning the imprisonment of the United States for violating human rights and Qian Xuesen's personal will. Negotiate with the United States, demand their release of Qian Xuesen, and express to the United Nations such fascist atrocities committed by the United States.

At the Geneva Conference in 1954, the secretary general of the Chinese delegation and the U.S. deputy secretary of state negotiated the release of the Chinese students imprisoned by the U.S. The United States** also made a request. After the talks, the two sides compromised each other a little bit.

Qian Xuesen has been on the rescue list, but Qian Xuesen is isolated from the outside world and doesn't know about this situation. In order to rescue a large number of Chinese students, including Mr. Qian Xuesen, New China first released several American pilots in July. The United States has also made concessions, but it is still unwilling to let Qian Xuesen go. New China has not given up and is continuing to negotiate.

Qian Xuesen's family.

In May 1955, Qian Xuesen was reading Chinese pictorial at home and actually saw the picture of *** appearing in Tiananmen Square to celebrate Labor Day. Then in the list of spectators, he saw the name of an acquaintanceChen Shutong.

Chen Shutong is an old friend of Qian Xuesen's father, Qian Xuesen and Chen Shutong have met many times and have a deep relationship. Qian Xuesen saw that since Chen Shutong could be on the list of spectators at such a major event in New China, it showed that Chen Shutong could help him deliver a message to the leaders of New China. Qian Xuesen then wrote a letter asking for help to Chen Shutong, but it was not sent directly, but after several twists and turns.

Qian Xuesen discussed with his wife Jiang Ying, Jiang Ying wrote a letter to his sister who was far away in Belgium, and Qian Xuesen sandwiched the distress letter in the letter written by Jiang Ying. Then Jiang Ying asked her sister to send the distress letter back to Shanghai to Qian Xuesen's father. Then through Qian Xuesen's father, he handed over the letter to Chen Shutong, and asked Chen Shutong to help convey his eagerness to return to China to make contributions to New China.

Qian Xuesen and Jiang Ying had such twists and turns just to prevent the US Intelligence Agency from finding out that Qian Xuesen was asking for help from New China, otherwise it would be a big trouble. In order to prevent the US Intelligence Agency from recognizing Jiang Ying's handwriting, Jiang Ying deliberately learned Xi and imitated the child's handwriting to avoid the intelligence bureau's scrutiny.

Then Qian Xuesen took his wife Jiang Ying to the mall, Qian Xuesen deliberately walked in front to lure away the American ** who was following them, and then Jiang Ying took the opportunity to run to the mailbox next to the café to deliver the letter.

Chen Shutong received Qian Xuesen's distress letter, and he had mixed feelings and was extremely angry. Qian Xuesen truthfully wrote in the letter that the United States is lying. They clearly promised New China to release the imprisoned Chinese students, but they deceived the Chinese side without the consent of Qian Xuesen and others, saying that these people were unwilling to return to China. Qian Xuesen made it clear that they all wanted to return to China, but they were under house arrest by the United States and couldn't go back if they wanted to.

Mr. Shutongtai:

Since September 1947, we have not corresponded to each other, but we have been moved and admired by the spirit of serving and working hard for the people in newspapers and periodicalsXuesen made a mistake a few years ago, so that he was detained by the United States, and it has been five years now. Not a day, a moment, or a moment does not think of returning to the country to participate in the great upsurge of construction. However, there are more important and urgent problems waiting to be solved in the world situation, and the situation of Xuesen and others cannot be used to complain. In the past few years, Xuesen has only tried to think hard about his knowledge within the scope of his ability, so that he can return to China one day.

But now that the newspapers are talking about the possibility of China and the United States exchanging detainees, and the US side is lying that all the Chinese students who are willing to return to China have been released, we can't help but be anxious. I must not believe their words, except for Xuesen, how many compatriots are there, and those who want to return. Those who know from Xuesen have Guo Yonghuai's family, and the others do not know their exact names. The Americans cannot be released if these people do not come back. Of course, I ** understand, the lie of the United States ** cannot be deceived. However, we are waiting for the release for a long time, anxious, lest we miss the opportunity, please forgive me, please forgive me!Attached is a section of the "New York Times" old news, which is Xuesen's situation in the United States in the past five years.

I wish you in infinite anticipation.

Healthy. Qian Xuesen is respectful.

June 15, 1955.

** Wait for the new Chinese leaders not to know the methods of the United States**, on the Korean battlefield, how unbright the official methods of the United States are, they have long been taught. However, Qian Xuesen's distress letter is ironclad evidence, which can be used as a strong accusation in the negotiation process to put pressure on the US side to release Qian Xuesen and a large number of other Chinese students.

**Give this letter to China*** Let them negotiate with all their might, and be sure to rescue Qian Xuesen and others back to China. In the face of Qian Xuesen's letter, the US Deputy Secretary of State was speechless, and there was no way to tell nonsense with his eyes open.

New China's strong negotiations forced the United States to release Qian Xuesen. On August 4, Qian Xuesen finally waited for the document from the immigration bureau that allowed him to leave the country and return to New China. Qian Xuesen and Jiang Ying hugged each other excitedly, and asked the children to pack their bags and prepare to return to China.

Qian Xuesen saw hope, and the whole person was much more energetic. The family was to return to their homeland on September 17, 1955, on a steamer. One day before returning to China, Qian Xuesen suddenly received a telegram signed by his father. The telegram reminded him not to disembark on the way home:

"Son, I'm glad you can go home, be careful on the way, don't get off the boat halfway, don't eat what others give you on the way, go to the staff restaurant to eat, and when you arrive in China, there will be friends under the boat to pick you up."

It is a long way from a port in the United States to a port in China. Qian Xuesen instructed Jiang Ying and the children to stay in the boat obediently and not get off the boat. Qian Xuesen did not get off the boat on the way back to China, and the family watched other Chinese classmates casually shopping for gadgets, and stayed in the room without going out.

Staying on this American cruise ship, if Qian Xuesen has any accidents, then the US side must be held responsible, and they are at a loss for words. After all, Sima Zhao's heart is well known to passers-by. But if you get off the boat, if Mr. Qian Xuesen has an accident, the other party can deny it openly, and no one can do anything.

Qian Xuesen's family took a ship for more than 20 days, arrived in Hong Kong, and then transferred to the mainland. **Send someone to greet Qian Xuesen and others. Back in Shanghai, Qian Xuesen talked about the telegram his father had sent him. His father told Qian Xuesen that he had never sent any telegrams.

Qian Xuesen was confused, but he didn't ask and think further. He put the matter behind him. It wasn't until fifty years later that he stumbled upon who had sent him that mysterious telegram.

Because fifty years after his return, the mystery was revealed because this file did not need to be kept secret. It turned out to be newChina's *** sent out.

New China and the United States have made many representations and negotiations, after all, the two sides have fought on the battlefield, and the Chinese side knows very well how the American ** team at that time abused the prisoners of war and forced them to go to the places that the United States ** wanted them to go. Tricks that don't get on the table are disgusting, but they work. Behind everything is to achieve the goal.

Because he knows too much about the United States, China is worried that Qian Xuesen will be assassinated by the Intelligence Bureau on the way back to China. ** He couldn't publicly send a telegram to remind Qian Xuesen, so he could only send a mysterious telegram to Qian Xuesen in the name of Qian Xuesen's father. We must ensure that Qian Xuesen's family returns to New China safely.

After Qian Xuesen returned to China, he was personally received by the first person and opened the road of national defense scientific research in New China. **Ask Qian Xuesen:"Sir, do you think the Chinese can build an atomic bomb?”

Qian Xuesen replied forcefully"Yes!."Americans can make it, then we Chinese will definitely be able to build it!”

**Looking at the confident and hard-working Qian Xuesen, he laughed with satisfaction. And thenQian Xuesen, Qian Weiqiang and others had no facilities and only $300,000 in start-up funds, so that New China's national defense research started from scratch and shocked the world. They are the great men of the times and the pride of the Chinese nation.
