"Red clouds soar into the sky, and thousands of nuclear forces shake vigorously", when China's first nuclear bomb test was successful in 1982, scientific researchers excitedly wrote heroic poems, which became the praise and horn of the prosperity of the motherland. Since then, the era when China was bullied by the great powers has never returned, and the journey of its rise has sailed all the way. Behind this glory is the lonely life of the scientific giant for thirty years, and it is the selfless payment of sleeping and forgetting to eat, and paying for both body and mind. Chinese people will never forget them, especially the author of this moving poem, Deng Jiaxian, a pioneer of China's nuclear weapons, a founding father of two bombs and one star, and a heroic academician who has dedicated his life to the country.
Mr. Deng Jia was born on June 25, 1924, his ancestral home in Huaide, Anhui Province, and his father Deng Yijing was a famous philosopher who taught philosophy at Tsinghua University and other schools. Deng Jiaxian inherited his father's excellent genes, sensitive and studious from an early age, but his ambition was not in philosophy, but in physics. Deng Jiaxian has a strong interest and proud talent in physics. After graduating from Chongde High School in 1939, Deng Jia first entered southwest United University to study physics, and then stayed in the United States for further study. During his time at Purdue, he completed his master's and doctoral programs in two years with astonishing talent and successfully graduated, when he was only 26 years old and jokingly called "Dr. Doll".
At that time, New China had just been founded, the country finally ushered in the dawn in the darkness, and countless overseas students who were concerned about the motherland were full of excitement and determined to serve the country. Deng Jiaxian's mood was particularly anxious, and he did not have the slightest nostalgia for the superior environment of the United States, and returned to China 9 days after graduation and accepted the commission of the development of the atomic bomb. This work must be carried out in secret in the harsh environment of the yellow sand desert, living a life of incognito, hard and boring, day and night, which is a huge test for the body and mind of scholars.
But Deng Jiaxian did not hesitate to agree, with the research and development team rooted in the desert, a stay is 28 years, relying on the most backward facilities equipped to successively research China's first atomic bomb, the first hydrogen bomb, the first neutron bomb. Red clouds bloomed again and again in the uninhabited wilderness, and this team created the most brilliant miracle in modern Chinese history.
China finally possessed the nuclear weapons that threatened the world, but Deng Jiaxian was exhausted by years of hard work, fatigue work and nuclear radiation, and not only suffered from severe malnutrition, but also diagnosed with cancer. In July 1986, at the age of 62, Deng Jia died in Beijing. The loss of heroes, the mourning of the whole people. In honor of his outstanding contribution to China's nuclear cause, the state awarded Deng Jiaxian several awards after his death, and the acting leader was his son Deng Zhiping. So 33 years after the death of the "two bombs and one star" founder, what happened to his children?
Deng Jiaxian's son - Deng Zhiping
Born in April 1956, Deng Zhiping worked as a grassroots worker when he was young, and was admitted to Chongqing University after resuming the college entrance examination in 1987, and stayed on to teach after graduating with a master's degree in 1992. Deng Zhiping has been engaged in the work of construction machinery, participated in a number of mechanical research and machinery production projects, led the 490Q diesel engine project of Daxian Huaxing Machinery Factory, joined the Sichuan Mechanical Processing Professional Committee because of his outstanding professional ability, and participated in the compilation of "Modern Manufacturing Engineering", published "Mechanical Manufacturing Technology Basics", "CNC Technology and Processing Programming" and other university professional textbooks. Deng Zhiping inherited his father's legacy as an engineering scholar to contribute to China's road to industrial power.
Daughter of Deng Jiaxian - Deng Zhidian
Born in 1954, Deng Zhidian grew up in the mountains and countryside, joined the Inner Mongolia Construction Corps at the age of 15, and did 4 years of arduous pioneering work. At the age of 19, he returned to Beijing and worked as a worker. After resuming the college entrance examination, he was admitted to the university, and then transferred to the United States for graduate school. At that time, Deng Jiaxian was already well-known for his nuclear bomb research, and in order to prevent his daughter from being used after going abroad, Deng Jiaxian instructed her daughter not to be seduced by others and not to turn her back on the motherland. Deng Zhidian obeyed his father's instructions, lived a low-key life in the United States, and continued this way of life to this day, never appearing in the public eye.
The elite of Deng Jiaxian's family for several generations has always adhered to the style of scholars, stepped forward and made every effort in the country's difficulties, and either contributed to the glory of the country or retired after the country's glory. Deng Jiaxian's brilliant achievements and outstanding contributions are engraved on the monument of New China, which will always be worshiped and looked up to. He promised the country by example, he was doomed not to spend more time with his family, fortunately, his children did not dishonor the legacy of their ancestors, did not suffer from worldly vices, did not take advantage of the shadow of their predecessors, sat on the riches, and chose to get rid of their father's aura, and each of them walked out of their own life path.
