He has presided over more than 30 nuclear weapons tests of various types, and is the scientist with the largest number of nuclear tests in China, known as the "nuclear commander". He is Cheng Kaijia, a famous physicist who is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the "Medal of Merit of Two Bombs and One Star", the "August 1st Medal", the highest honor of Chinese soldiers, and the honor of the highest national science and technology award.
In 1949, Cheng Kaijia in Scotland saw from a movie newsreel that the British warship "Purple Quartz" on the Yangtze River disregarded the warnings of the People's Liberation Army, openly provoked, was hit by PLA artillery fire, and raised a white flag. "Shelling the British warships" was like a fire, igniting the patriotic enthusiasm hidden in Cheng Kaijia's heart. At that time, Cheng Kaijia was already a researcher at the Royal Institute of Chemical Industry in the United Kingdom, but he made up his mind to go home! Go back to your homeland! In 1950, Cheng Kaijia refused to be retained by his mentor Born, gave up the preferential treatment and research conditions of britain, and returned to poor China.
He changed his research direction four times in ten years, and he said that everything was for the national interest, and he could do whatever he wanted me to do. From participating in the development of the atomic bomb to participating in the decision-making of more than 30 nuclear tests, he has devoted all his efforts to China's nuclear weapons research and nuclear testing! On this day in 2018 (November 17), cheng Kaijia, the founder of the "two bombs and one star", died of illness. Remembrance, tribute!
