When Qian Xuesen is mentioned, everyone will think of his past achievements, he is the winner of the Chinese Medal of Merit for Two Bombs and One Star, and his life is very legendary. Qian Xuesen in 1936, in order to improve his professional knowledge, chose to study in the United States, and attributed to Carmen, became the apprentice of a great scientist, at that time Qian Xuesen's career development was very prosperous, has been a world-renowned aerodynamicist, but in the founding of New China, the development of all aspects of the country is relatively slow, very lack of experts like Qian Xuesen, so Qian Xuesen made a decision, that is, as a Chinese, must contribute to China.
At that time, Qian Xuesen was already a top outstanding person in the United States, and the United States naturally did not want to let him come back, and the United States offered him very attractive conditions and treatment, but Qian Xuesen was not at all impressed, because he understood that as a Chinese, it was natural to contribute to the motherland. After staying in the United States for 12 years, Qian Xuesen quit his stable job and took a family to prepare to return to China, but he did not expect that when he was preparing to board the ship, he was stopped by the Americans, directly put Qian Xuesen and his family under house arrest, and forcibly banned Qian Xuesen from returning to China.
The United States understands that Qian Xuesen is a talented person, leaving the United States is definitely a big loss, and it will also have a bad impact on the United States; when Qian Xuesen was under house arrest, the Americans constantly used means to torture Qian Xuesen's spirit, and there were restrictions on sleeping and eating. However, Qian Xuesen was already a big name at that time, inexplicably under house arrest, naturally caused a lot of fluctuations, so the United States finally could not stand up to social public opinion, had to release Qian Xuesen, but then still controlled Qian Xuesen's personal freedom, and even sent people to follow Qian Xuesen for 24 hours, ostensibly to protect him, but in fact to monitor him.
The Americans exhausted all means to prevent Qian Xuesen from returning to China, Qian Xuesen was controlled by the United States for a full five years, but did not succeed, after all, our Sons and Daughters of China are not so easy to accept defeat, and later When Qian Xuesen bought something, he sent the distress letter to Chen Shutong, who forwarded the distress letter to Premier Zhou, and finally China exchanged 15 American airmen as prisoners of war in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, so that Qian Xuesen could return to China.
Qian Xuesen got the approval to return to China, and took the whole family on the boat with joy, which could be regarded as letting go of his heart, but on the way he received a telegram, the content was very simple, mainly expressing the welcome to Qian Xuesen's return to China, and repeatedly instructed Qian Xuesen to be careful on the way home, and must not get off the boat in the middle, and said that after Qian Xuesen arrived, he would let his friends pick him up. Qian Xuesen smiled when he saw this telegram, he knew that his father was worried about him, and he sent such a message.
Qian Xuesen listened to his father's words and stayed on the ship, and did not go down when the ship was stopped, until he arrived safely in China more than 20 days later. When he arrived home, he inadvertently asked his father about the telegram, but his father said that he did not know. Who sent the mysterious telegram? Why do you speak in the tone of Qian Xuesen's father? Qian Xuesen's heart was full of confusion, but he didn't know where to start, and this matter would not be resolved.
It was not until fifty years after Qian Xuesen's return to China that the real owner of the mysterious telegram was able to know that it was originally sent by China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the tone of his father, and at that time the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also knew the news of Qian Xuesen's return to China, but in the end it was not at ease, worried about what the United States would do, the Foreign Ministry was worried about Qian Xuesen's personal safety, so it wanted to send a telegram to remind Qian Xuesen that it did so in order not to cause unnecessary trouble. After Qian Xuesen returned to China, he also fulfilled his dream, that is, to promote the development of the motherland, and China's missile and nuclear bomb launches have been effectively helped, which is inseparable from Qian Xuesen.
