Hua was born in a small businessman's family in Jintan County, Jiangsu Province.

1925, after graduating from junior high school, he was unable to continue his studies because of his poor family. 1928, 18-year-old Hua was recommended by his math teacher Wang Weike to be a clerk in Jintan Middle School. Unfortunately, however, this year he suffered from typhoid fever and stayed in bed for five months. Since then, his left leg has been paralyzed. However, he is not pessimistic and discouraged, but stubbornly studies hard. On one occasion, he found that Professor Su Jiaju's paper on solving quintic algebraic equations was wrong: the value of a determinant of order 12 was incorrect, so he wrote his own calculation results and opinions into an article entitled "Why the solution of Su Jiaju's algebraic quintic equation could not be established" and posted it in Shanghai Science magazine. 1930 This article was published in Science magazine when Hua was only 20 years old. It is this paper that has completely changed the road of life after China.

Xiong Qinglai, then head of the Department of Mathematics at Tsinghua University, saw this paper and greatly appreciated it. I asked around which university Professor Hua was from, but everyone said they didn't know. It happened that a teacher named Tang Peijing in the Department of Mathematics knew Hua. He told Xiong Qinglai that Hua was not a university professor, but a self-taught young man. Xiong qinglai is eager for talents and doesn't care about academic qualifications. He immediately asked Tang Peijing to invite Hua to work in Tsinghua University. 193 1 year, Tang Peijing took photos sent by Hua to meet Hua at Qianmen Railway Station in Beijing and set off from Jintan. Hua, the future great mathematician, walked into the Tsinghua campus with a broken leg and a cane. At first, he worked as an assistant in the department of mathematics, managing and sending letters and typing, and keeping books and materials. He teaches himself while working. Xiong qinglai also lets him often go to the classroom with the students. Hua, who is diligent and eager to learn, completed all the courses in the department of mathematics in the university in just one year, and his knowledge has made great progress. Xiong qinglai attaches great importance to this young man. Sometimes when he encounters complicated calculations, he will shout, "Hua, come and help me with this problem!" " Two years later, Hua was promoted to teaching assistant and then lecturer. Later, Xiong Qinglai sent him to Cambridge University for further study. From 65438 to 0938, Hua returned to China as a professor of National Southwest Associated University at the age of 28.

Hua later became a world-famous mathematician and made outstanding contributions in many fields, such as number theory, matrix geometry, typical groups, automorphic function theory, multiple complex variable function theory, partial differential equations and so on. He wrote more than 200 papers and monographs 10, and became a foreign academician of the American Academy of Sciences and an honorary doctor of Nancy University in France and the Chinese University of Hong Kong. His name has entered the Smithsonian Museum in Washington, USA, and is listed as one of the eighty-eight great mathematicians in the Chicago Museum of Science and Technology.

65438-0936, recommended by Professor Xiong Qinglai, Hua went to Cambridge University in England to study. Hardy, a famous mathematician in the 20th century, has long heard that China is brilliant. He said, "You can get a doctorate in two years." But Hua said, "I don't want to get a doctorate." I just want to be a tourist. " "I came to Cambridge to study, not to get a degree." In the past two years, he has devoted himself to studying the theory of heap-based prime numbers, published 18 papers on the problems of Waring, altruism and Chigodbach, and obtained the famous "Fahrenheit Theorem", which showed the outstanding wisdom and ability of China mathematicians to the whole world.

Sima Qian

In the second year of Tian Han (99 BC), Li Ling, a colleague, was besieged when he went to Xiongnu, and all his food was surrendered to Xiongnu. When the news reached Chang 'an, Emperor Wu was furious. All the officials in the imperial court cursed Li Ling for his shameful surrender. Sima Qian kept silent. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked him what he thought, and Sima Qian, who was full of economy and knowledge, said bluntly: "Li Ling fought for thousands of miles, and his arrows were exhausted, and he was also a famous ancient name." Although he surrendered, he was excusable. I thought that as long as he didn't die, he would still be loyal to the Han Dynasty. The angry Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard Sima Qian's remarks, thinking that he was defending Li Ling and deliberately belittling Li Guangli, who was fighting against Xiongnu at that time. He was very unhappy, so he ordered Sima Qian to be sentenced to death (or replaced by corruption). In the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, people sentenced to death could pay 500,000 yuan to mitigate the death penalty. However, Sima Qian, whose family was not rich, could not afford the money, so he had to be punished by "corruption" (castration) and chose the road of "drag out an ignoble existence". Unfortunately, Sima Qian's spirit was greatly stimulated and he once wanted to commit suicide. But he remembered his father's last words, encouraged himself with the anger of Confucius, Qu Yuan, Zuo Qiuming, Sun Tzu and Han Fei, and finally survived with amazing will. Exhausted physically and mentally, Sima Qian, who endured a dirty life, knew that "people are inherently mortal, and death is heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather." He is determined to finish the history book that his father asked him to finish in his later years. After six years in prison, Zheng He was finally released from prison in the first year (the first 93 years). Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty still attached great importance to Sima Qian's talent and appointed him as the secretary-general. Since then, I have devoted myself to writing, and finally completed the masterpiece Historical Records, which is a masterpiece of "studying heaven and man, connecting the changes of ancient and modern times, and becoming the words of the Chinese nation". Historical Records was originally named Taishi Gongshu, also known as Taishi GongGong Ji and Taishi Gongji, and was not called Historical Records until the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Sima Qian intended him to be "a famous mountain in Tibet, an assistant minister in the capital, and a sage and gentleman for later generations." When Xuan Di was proclaimed emperor in the Han Dynasty, Yang Yun, the grandson of Sima Qian, announced it. At that time, there were several missing articles, which were supplemented by later generations.

Story 1: Designing advertisements by operating a computer with one hand.

Su, a computer typesetter of a company in Heyuan City, has a monthly salary of 1 0,000 yuan. This is not easy for a 28-year-old boy with a third-degree disability with only one right hand.

He sharpened a pencil with his knee, tied the palette to his left hand with a rope, and tapped the keyboard with his right hand, thus successfully completing the study of arts and crafts design and having the ability to settle down.

He worked in this company for three years, editing pictures for a local newspaper, and also undertaking advertising design and photo album typesetting. Many of the works he designed and edited are his masterpieces. For example, all the advertisements of the first dragon boat race in Heyuan city the year before last had his share of sweat, and designing these advertisements was his hardest day. Facts have proved that he is no worse than others.

Speaking of the hardships of finding a job just after graduation, his face showed some helplessness. After months of door-to-door inquiries and job advertisements, many companies considered the materials, but once they saw a person and found that his hand was disabled, they turned him away. However, he was not discouraged and was finally hired as a computer picture editor by an advertising planning company. But after working for two months, the boss gave him 250 yuan's salary, which hit him hard. "At that time, I didn't consider the salary when I was looking for a job. I thought that as long as I have a job, but with this much less salary than the average person, I feel that this boss is bullying us disabled people! " He left his job in one fell swoop and went to another advertising company to do lettering and signboard installation, with a monthly salary of more than 500 yuan. Sometimes he has to carry a ladder to install billboards outdoors, which is quite difficult for him with only one hand. While doing this job, he is looking for a job that is more suitable for him. Finally, his chance came. He applied for a job as a computer design operator in Heyuan Zhengdong Color Printing Company. His excellent professional skills and skillful computer operation left a deep impression on his boss, and his monthly salary increased to more than 1000 yuan.
