Qian Xuesen's Spiritual Press Conference

Qian Xuesen: I have been excited three times in my life.

"The first time was in 1955, and I was allowed to return to China. I took a newly published "Engineering Cybernetics" and gave it to my teacher von Carmen. He flipped through it and said with emotion, you have surpassed me academically now. I, Qian Xuesen, surpassed such a world-famous authority academically and won the anger of Chinese people. I am very excited.

"The second time is the anniversary of the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC) 10. I was accepted as party member, the producer's party in China, and I was too excited to sleep well.

"I am excited for the third time, just this year. This year, I read the preface written by Comrade Wang for Biography. In this preface, he said that the Central Organization Department identified Lei Feng, Jiao Youlu, Wang Jinxi, Shi Laihe and Qian Xuesen as five outstanding representatives of party member who enjoyed high prestige among the masses in the past 50 years since liberation. I can stand side by side with them. Why am I not excited? ! "

Qian Xuesen left the United States on 1955 and never returned. He insisted that he would never go to the United States again in his life as long as the US government did not formally apologize for "deporting" him that year. It turns out that anyone who has an expulsion record in the archives of the US Immigration Service must go through some kind of Amnesty procedure before entering the country. "Qian Xuesen is innocent, why do you need Amnesty?"

"He is a person who values the interests and honor of the motherland and the nation above all else. He can be said to be a' China man' who is loyal to serving the country and full of national integrity. " Jiang Ying realized Qian Xuesen's unique patriotic complex.

"During his days in the United States, he learned well, but he was not used to it in life. In particular, some Americans looked down on China's arrogance and made him very angry." Once, an American student laughed at China people for smoking opium, foot-binding and ignorance in front of Qian Xuesen. Qian Xuesen immediately challenged him-China, as a country, lags behind the United States; But as individuals, which one of you dares to do better in the final exam than me? American students stick out their tongues and dare not look down on China people any more.

According to the tenet of MIT, students of all professional disciplines should practice in the corresponding factories and scientific research departments during the semester. Qian Xuesen should go to the airplane factory for an internship. But he did not expect that American aircraft manufacturers only allowed American students to practice and did not accept foreign students. This racial discrimination is another heavy blow to Qian Xuesen in the United States.

After receiving his doctorate, Qian Xuesen, together with his mentor von Carmen, created the world-famous Carmen-Qian Xuesen formula. Its presentation and proof provide a theoretical basis for aircraft to overcome thermal and acoustic obstacles in the early stage. Since then, Qian Xuesen's name has spread all over the world.

1947, Qian Xuesen returned to the motherland for the first time after leaving the United States 12 years. After a simple wedding with Jiang Ying, he and his wife returned to the United States to study business harder. He clearly knows that in America, this is just a post station in his life, and the distant motherland is his eternal home.

1949 Mid-Autumn Festival, Qian Xuesen of anxious to return is preparing to return to China. "He never imagined that in order to return to China, he went through hardships and suffered for more than five years."

In those years, their whole family was shocked at once, so they often moved. Jiang Ying, as his faithful companion, gave him great courage and strength. Jiang Ying recalled: "We always put three light boxes around us, ready to be allowed to fly back to China at any time every day. It can be said that he was eventually deported as an' American prisoner'. " This history really left a deep impression on them.

In the living room of Qian's hometown, there is a huge "mushroom cloud" photo hanging on the wall-it was the exciting moment when the first strategic missile in Lop Nur accurately hit the bull's eye.

"Thirty-six years have passed, but every time I see this photo, he always has a sense of pride-because it is in the hands of his own nation and a symbol of peace." In the eyes of the old couple, it is the most beautiful flower of peace in the world.
