About the example of "poverty can't move"

1, Zhu Ziqing refused to accept American relief food.

At the beginning of 1948, the people's liberation war entered the final stage. In June, students in Beiping launched a movement against American support for Japanese militarism. At this time, Zhu Ziqing was seriously ill and had no money for medical treatment, but he did not hesitate to sign his name on the declaration, which read: "In order to show the dignity and integrity of the people of China, we categorically reject all charity from the United States, whether it is purchase or gift." In early August, Zhu Ziqing became seriously ill and died on 12. He was only 50 years old then.

2. Qian Xuesen returned to China.

1950 In the middle of September, Qian Xuesen went through the formalities of returning to China. Just two days before he planned to leave Los Angeles, he suddenly received a notice from the US Immigration and Naturalization Service that he was not allowed to return to China! The Immigration Bureau threatened to leave the country without authorization and be fined or even jailed if caught! A few days later, Qian Xuesen was arrested in the detention center of the US Immigration and Naturalization Service. The "crime" is "participating in a political party that advocates overthrowing the US government by force". In the detention center, Qian Xuesen was imprisoned like a criminal. Qian Xuesen once recalled: "15 days of confinement, I lost 30 pounds."

In the detention center, every night, spies will come in every other hour to wake you up, leaving you in a state of extreme tension. Later, due to Qian Xuesen's protest and the help of American friends, the Immigration Bureau had to release him, but he was still under surveillance. The outrageous obstruction of the American authorities did not lock Qian Xuesen's heart in returning to China. He and his wife Jiang Ying continued to fight in various ways. In those difficult years, Qian Xuesen always set up three light boxes at home so as to leave for home at any time.

3. Suwu Shepherd

In March of the first year of Tianhan, in order to repay the kindness of Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent corps commander Su Wu, deputy corps commander John Zhang and military attache Chang Hui to the Xiongnu, sent the detained Xiongnu emissary back, and gave rich gifts. After Su Wu and others arrived in Xiongnu, civil strife broke out in Xiongnu. Su Wu was involved after the incident, and Su Wu didn't want to be humiliated, so he failed to commit suicide. Khan sent Korea to surrender, and urged it to surrender by protecting the law. Su Wu was unmoved. So Su Wu was imprisoned in the underground kiln and deprived of food and drink to force him to submit. Su Wu persisted for several days without dying. The Huns thought he was a god, so they exiled him to a remote and uninhabited place in Beihai to herd sheep.

In the second year of Yuan Dynasty, Hu Yanlang became Khan in Xinli, and the emissary wanted to be friendly with the Han Dynasty. The Han Dynasty asked the Huns to release Su Wu. In the sixth year of Yuan Dynasty, nine people, including Su Wu, were welcomed back to China by Chinese envoys. Su Wu detained the Huns 19 years, knowing the border nationalities. After returning to China, he was appointed as a typical country, specializing in minority affairs. He was unyielding in the Huns and was regarded by later generations as one of the models of adhering to national integrity.

Extended data:

Poor can't move, the language comes from Mencius and Teng Wengong, and the original text is as follows:

Chun said, "Aren't Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi honest people? Anger is the fear of the princes, and peace is the destruction of the world. "

Mencius said, "A gentleman is a gentleman. Haven't you learned manners? The husband's crown is also the father's life; When the woman got married, she was sent to the door by her mother, and was warned:' When you go to your daughter's house, you must be respectful and restrained, without violating your master's intention!' He who takes obedience as the right path is also a concubine. Live in a vast place in the world, stand in the right position in the world and be the best self in the world. Let the people do it if they succeed, and go their own way if they fail. Wealth can't be lewd, poverty can't be moved, and power can't be bent. This is called a gentleman. "

Translation:

Jingchun said, "Aren't Gongsun Yan and Zhang Yi real men? When angry, the princes will be afraid; Quiet down and the world will be safe. "

Mencius said, "How can this be called a gentleman?" Haven't you learned manners? When a person is an adult, his father will teach him; When the woman got married, her mother gave her instructions, sent her to the door, and warned her: "When you get to your husband's house, you must be respectful. Be careful not to go against your husband! " Obedience is the principle of being a concubine. Living in the widest residence in the world, standing in the most important position in the world, practicing the most important truth in the world.

If you realize your ambition, you will realize it with the people; If you can't realize your ambition, you can practice your own truth alone. Money can't disturb his heart, poverty and meanness can't change his heart, and power can't yield to his ambition. This is called a gentleman! "
