Sometimes, life stories are like a poker game, where we have a card in our hands but don't know the hole cards behind it in advance. Mathematics genius Chen Jingrun and his 29-year-old wife as a military doctor are like two playing cards, and they are intertwined with a wonderful combination of mathematics and medicine.
However, the real focus is not on the marriage of the heterogeneous couple, but on the only son they have born. Now, how is this ** person of the Chen family, how is he doing, and what kind of life has he achieved?
In 1950, the Department of Mathematics and Physics of Xiamen University ushered in a special freshman - Chen Jingrun. Although he was not yet old enough to graduate from high school, his talent for mathematics was evident, opening the doors of college early.
In the library of Xiamen University, Chen Jingrun is like a tireless bee, immersed in hard study, and his four years of university life are full of endless exploration of mathematics. But after graduation, Chen Jingrun's life was not easy, his too rigid personality, coupled with his stuttering all the time, made him unable to find a suitable job.
In the end, it was Xiamen University that gave Chen Jingrun a chance, and after the president Wang Yanan learned of his situation, he couldn't bear to let such a talent be buried, so he found him a job as a teaching assistant on campus.
He devoted all his time and energy to the study of mathematics, as if he had found a lost soul. At this stage, he quietly completed his research results, which were published the following year.
His results attracted the attention of the famous mathematician Hua Luogeng. Hua Luogeng saw his potential and soon transferred him to the Institute of Mathematics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Under the leadership of Hua Luogeng, Chen Jingrun began a more in-depth mathematical exploration, and this time, he targeted the Gothic ** conjecture.
His daily life is almost entirely immersed in deep thinking about this question: whether it is at the first rays of the morning sun, in a dimly lit room in the middle of the night, or even at the dining table, on the way to a morning run, his mind is full of numbers and formulas.
This extreme focus has left his health deteriorating. His colleague, Professor Zhang, noticed that he was coughing incessantly in his office.
"Teacher Chen, what are you doing here?The body is important, so you can't work so hard!Professor Zhang said worriedly.
Chen Jingrun shook his head lightly, and his cough revealed firmness, "Professor Zhang, I know my body, but I can't let go of this problem." I feel like I'm getting closer to the answer. ”
Even under the torture of tuberculosis, Chen Jingrun still sticks to the battlefield of mathematics, and his will seems to be stronger than his body. One spring in 1966, he finally wrote the final strokes of the solution on a thick piece of paper. This ****, which is hundreds of thousands of words, is not only the crystallization of his wisdom, but also a proof of his perseverance and courage.
He handed the ** to Professor Zhang, "Professor Zhang, please help me take a look." ”
Professor Zhang flipped through this heavy **, and his shock was overflowing, "Teacher Chen, this." It's incredible!You actually did it!”
Chen Jingrun's physical condition deteriorated day by day after a long period of round-the-clock research, and finally, the state decided to send him to the People's Liberation Army Hospital in Beijing for professional treatment. The people in the hospital were full of respect for this math master, and there were rumors that they wanted to see him.
At this time, a young female doctor named Yu Kun was studying in the hospital. One of her colleagues came to her excitedly and said, "You Kun, I heard that the famous mathematician Chen Jingrun has come to our hospital, let's go and have a look!"”
Although Yu Kun did not know much about mathematics, he was still a little curious about the legend and agreed. "Well, let's go and see what this math master looks like. ”
Walking into Chen Jingrun's ward, You Kun met 44-year-old Chen Jingrun for the first time. Although Chen Jingrun looks a little haggard because of his long-term research, he can still see a sense of perseverance and strength in his eyes.
"Hello, Professor Chen, I am You Kun, a doctor who has come for further study. Yukun politely introduced himself.
Chen Jingrun raised his head, his eyes fell on You Kun's body, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. He said gently, "Oh, hello, Dr. Yukun, could you please come in and sit down for a while?"”
You Kun was a little surprised, but still walked into the ward and sat on the edge of Chen Jingrun's bed. The two began a brief conversation, with Yu Kun talking about his medical work and Chen Jingrun sharing his love of mathematics. In this chance encounter, two people from very different worlds begin their unusual story.
During his days in the hospital, Chen Jingrun always looked for opportunities to talk to Youkun. Their topics range from math to life, from scientific exploration to everyday trivialities. Slowly, the people in the hospital began to notice Chen Jingrun's special attention to Youkun.
One day, an ** in the hospital said to a colleague in the break room, "Have you noticed?".Professor Chan is very happy every time he meets Dr. Yau Kun. ”
You Kun's colleague replied with a smile: "Yes, I think Professor Chen not only respects Dr. You Kun, but also may have other feelings. ”
Although everyone is secretly speculating, no one is saying it. In the end, it is up to the parties themselves to decide the emotional matters. However, due to Chen's physical condition, the hospital decided to transfer Kun to his ward to take charge of his daily care.
In the days together, You Kun gradually discovered the characteristics of Chen Jingrun, his tenacity, wisdom and deep charm, which made her slowly attracted to her.
In 1980, 47-year-old Chen Jingrun proposed to You Kun, who was nearly 19 years younger than him. You Kun agreed, and the two tied the knot. That year, Chen Jingrun seemed to have been reborn, from a scholar in books to a husband and father in life.
In 1981, their son Chen Youwei was born. Chen Jingrun named his son "You Wei", implying his deep love for You Kun.
When Chen Youwei grew up, he inherited his father's talent for mathematics and also focused on the medical industry, which was the influence of his parents.
