In Jiangsu Province at the beginning of the 20th century, a teenager named Hua Luogeng silently wrote his fate behind the grocery store. He was born into an ordinary family that ran a small grocery store that had been passed down from generation to generation. Although this business is enough to support the family with basic livelihoods, it is still some way from being rich. In that era, education was a path to a better future, but for Hua Luogeng, even the tuition fee of 50 yuan seemed out of reach.
Hua's father wanted him to continue running the family business and live his life in peace. However, Hua Luogeng has a different dream in his heart. Even in the busy grocery store, he always finds time to immerse himself in the world of mathematics. His curiosity and thirst for knowledge led him to explore the mysteries of mathematics with a pen on paper in the gap between the groceries room.
"What are you doing here, Luo Geng? His father's voice interrupted his musings. "Dad, I'm working on a calculation that will help us count our inventory faster. Hua Luogeng tried to explain, even though he knew that his father might not be able to fully understand. The father shook his head, skeptical, but let him continue.
Hua Luogeng's persistence is not without rewards. At the age of 19, he shocked the academic community with a self-taught math**. The publication of this article opened the door to a new world for him. Several professors in the mathematics community spoke highly of his talent, and a professor who came to purchase supplies had an unexpected conversation with him: "Young man, I have read your **, do you want to come to our Tsinghua University to continue your studies?" This sentence seems to be the greatest affirmation of his persistence.
Soon, Hua Luogeng stepped into the campus of Tsinghua University, became a scholar in the Department of Mathematics, and began his academic career. By 1933, he had become an assistant teacher in an exceptional capacity, at the age of 23.
In the middle of the 20th century, Hua Luogeng's life stage moved from the land of China to the United States. In 1946, the scholar, who was already emerging in the field of mathematics, embarked on a journey to Princeton University in pursuit of a broader research platform. There, he was not only given the honor of a professor, but also received numerous accolades and respect in the academic community.
Although life in the United States is full of glory and glory, Hua Luogeng's heart has always been concerned about the motherland far away in the East. In 1949, the birth of New China was like a dawn, illuminating the sense of belonging in his heart. Hearing the call of the motherland, he was very excited and firmly believed that his mission was not only to work in the academic field, but also to contribute to the new country.
In 1950, Hua Luogeng made a decision that surprised many people - to give up a stable life and attractive treatment in the United States, and embark on a journey back to his homeland with his family. Colleagues in the United States and friends in academia tried to persuade him to stay, and even dispatched many forces to obstruct him, but their efforts ultimately failed to shake Hua Luogeng's determination.
The road back to China was not smooth. At a farewell party with his American counterpart, Hua Luogeng said firmly: "Although a foreign country has given me honor and opportunities, my roots and soul belong to China after all. The construction of New China requires the wisdom and enthusiasm of us wanderers. It's time to go home. ”
After returning to China, Hua Luogeng did not stop. He was well aware of his influence, so he wrote an "Open Letter to Those Studying in the United States" to encourage and call on more overseas Chinese scientists to return to China for construction. In his letter, "Although Liangyuan is good, it is not a long-term hometown, we will have to go back sooner or later, for the sake of the truth and the country and the nation, we should go back!" It has aroused the resonance in the hearts of countless Chinese.
Under Hua Luogeng's call, many scientists who had originally lived steadily overseas began to reconsider their life direction. On a spring afternoon, Hua Luogeng sat in a classical garden in Beijing with several scientists who had just returned to their motherland, exchanging their experiences overseas and their hopes for the future of the motherland. This simple but profound conversation became the beginning of a new chapter in their lives.
At an important academic gathering in 1952, a special conversation became a story of history. At that time, Chairman ** personally expressed his high appreciation for Hua Luogeng's return to China. "Professor Hua, your resolute decision to return to the embrace of the motherland is not only a personal choice, but also a great contribution to the country. Your actions have inspired many scientists to follow in your footsteps, and people will remember this dedication. The words were full of affection and respect, which deeply moved Hua Luogeng and everyone present.
During that meeting, the conversation between the two great men quickly became deep and passionate. ** To Hua Luogeng, he said: "Our country is being rebuilt, and we need outstanding talents like you to make greater contributions to economic construction and scientific development." Hua Luogeng was deeply moved by these words, and he responded firmly: "Chairman, it is my honor to contribute to the development of New China. I will spare no effort to advance science education in my country. ”
Since then, Hua Luogeng has kept the entrustment of *** in mind and devoted himself to scientific research and education. His efforts have cultivated generations of mathematical talents and made indelible contributions to China's modernization.
In 1956, Hua Luogeng once again showed his extraordinary wisdom in his small office. At that time, one of the Soviet Union's military moves, the test launch of an intercontinental missile, became the focus of the world. In order to demonstrate its military strength, the Soviet Union deliberately left vague information in an attempt to confuse the world. However, for Hua Luogeng, this has become a clue to decryption.
With only brief information about the test launch area in a newspaper, Hua Luogeng began a series of complex calculations. The tip of his pen flutters on the paper, latitude and longitude, orbit, wind speed. All the data was in order in his head. After several days of hard work, Hua Luogeng finally solved the mystery, not only accurately determining the launch location of the missile, but also deducing its range and weight and other key parameters.
This achievement shocked the world, and Hua Luogeng's name once again became the focus of international discussion. U.S. intelligence agencies have shown great interest and awe of his abilities, and Hua Luogeng has used his talent to prove that mathematics can not only advance science, but also play a unique role in the international political arena.
In the in-depth communication with ***, Hua Luogeng felt the country's attention and expectations for scientists. This sense of responsibility and mission has become an inexhaustible driving force for his follow-up work, and has also allowed him to go further on the road of scientific research and national development.
