In 2007, Qian Xuesen celebrated his 96th birthday, and many guests gathered at the celebration, one of which was a gray-haired old lady.
The old lady's name is Li Pei, she is the wife of the famous physicist Guo Yonghuai, and is also known as the "mother of applied linguistics" in China. Li Pei was born in a knowledgeable family, and she resolutely embarked on the road to study at Southwest Associated University during the Anti-Japanese War, and actively participated in the anti-Japanese salvation movement.
After the war, Li Pei went to the United States for further study, and later married Guo Yonghuai. While her husband devoted herself to the research of national defense science and industry, she worked silently in the field of language research and became a teacher at the Institute of Linguistics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Despite all kinds of pressures and difficulties, Li Pei has always silently supported her husband's career and shouldered the burden of the family. Even after her husband's death, she remained strong and optimistic and continued to carry on her husband's career.
At Qian Xuesen's birthday celebration, Li Pei's arrival added a special color to the whole event. Her perseverance and warm smile deeply infected everyone present.
Through Li Pei's story, we see an ordinary and great woman who writes a chapter of life with her persistence and dedication, and makes unremitting efforts for the cause of science and her family.
Let us remember Li Pei, learn from her, and work together to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!
On this special day, we are not only celebrating Mr. Qian Xuesen's birthday, but also remembering those great people who silently supported the cause of science, such as women like Li Pei. They may not be on the stage and in the spotlight, but they quietly contribute to the development of science and the harmony of families.
Li Pei's story tells us that everyone has their own values and missions, whether in the field of scientific research or in the family. Her perseverance, optimism, and support for her husband's career are qualities worth emulating.
In our busy lives, we often ignore the people around us who are silently giving. Perhaps it is precisely because of their existence that we can devote ourselves to our careers with peace of mind and chase our dreams with peace of mind.
Therefore, while celebrating Mr. Qian Xuesen's 96th birthday, let us also pay tribute and thank those who have quietly supported us behind the scenes. Let us cherish everyone around us, warm each other's hearts with love and care, and create a better tomorrow together.
I hope that in the days to come, we can cherish this friendship even more, continue to inherit and carry forward the excellent scientific spirit, and work together to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!
Let us move forward hand in hand and write a glorious chapter in the new era together!
