If the old American plane dares to come, I will turn it into a pile of scrap iron! The young man in front of the television set secretly swore and made this bold ambition. In the late 1990s, a U.S. stealth bomber dropped five missiles into Yugoslavia and hit the Chinese embassy in South China with precision, an accident that directly led to the deaths of several workers on the mainland. The news came back to China, which made the people of the country furious, so this was the first sentence.
Who is the person who said this? Why did he make such harsh remarks? To this day, has his vow been fulfilled? Today we will take a look at the legendary story behind this young man. At the beginning of the video, the young man who made a bold ambition was Wu Jianqi.
More than twenty years have passed, he carried the promise he once made, cut through thorns, forged ahead, and now he has become a national treasure scientist on the mainland, and the radar he developed is unparalleled in the world, making the US military aircraft into a pile of scrap iron, and now he really did it!

Next, we will look at the legendary life of Wu Jianqi, a national treasure expert.
A legendary journey of growth
He was born in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, in the 1960s. Because his father was a soldier, at the beginning of the upsurge of patriotic ideas at that time, his father hoped that his son could grow up to be a person who contributed to the country, so his father gave him a resounding name: sword flag, which means "a sword to protect the flag", hoping that he could rely on his own strength to promote the development of the country.
He did not live up to his father's expectations, and when he was young, he showed a talent that was different from ordinary people. He was full of curiosity about the world since he was a child, and his curiosity about the things around him did not stop and actively guided him. Every time he asked why, his father would slowly guide him and let him find the answer through his own efforts.
Wu Jianqi was doing research
Over time, he slowly developed the habit of independent thinking, and his reasoning ability was greatly improved. In addition, he is a very lively little boy, and he is very energetic and he likes to do it very much. Boys at this age can be called small masters of family demolition. But unlike them, he didn't like to tear things down, he liked to build things.
Wu Jianqi's family was not rich, because the conditions were limited, so he did not have any toys at home when he was a child. But this clever little boy did not feel inferior because of this, but through his own hands, he created a lot of strange things. He often used some rope and wood to make a variety of toys, many of which were "inventions" and were loved by the children around him. Perhaps because of this excellent creativity, he has become a popular object for the children around him since he was a child.
Because he was born into a military family and was influenced by the family environment, he was more strict with himself than other children. When he first entered the classroom, he was very attentive to his studies and never let his parents worry about it. Every time he comes home, the first thing he does is complete his homework, and then he has to review what he learned in class.
Toys made of wood
Probably because of the habit of liking hands-on since childhood, his thinking has become more flexible, coupled with the self-consciousness of learning, his results are very good. In junior high school and high school, he has always been a school bully, but he did not get complacent about it. In the eyes of his classmates, he was kind and kind, never spoke loudly to anyone, and was very helpful and willing to share his notes with others.
In the eyes of the class leader, he is a sincere and steady handsome man, he studies steadily, loves basketball, focuses on doing things, and never takes a side. In the eyes of the teacher, he has always been a humble and courteous good student, never caused trouble, and always put his own learning first.
In middle school, his liberal arts grades were not very good, and in order to keep him from the subject, the teacher often helped him after class. In order not to live up to the trust of the teacher, he looked through the dictionary over and over again, in order to be able to quickly improve his grades, he used his spare time to read a large number of classic articles, and in this way, through his joint efforts with the teacher, his score exceeded the line of one hundred and twenty-three points in the college entrance examination.
Wu Jianqi
Unlike the traditional sense of xueba, he not only has excellent academic performance, but also has many interests and hobbies. At the age of ten, his chess level was already very strong, and even adults were not necessarily his opponents. At the same time, his Go skills are also very skilled, and he once represented the school in Go competitions and won a good ranking.
In addition, he also loves sports, often plays basketball with his classmates, and in the athletics competition of the school sports day, whether it is long-distance running or sprinting, he has achieved good results. Even with his athletic achievements, he can become a professional athlete. But like most of the boys, his dream from an early age is to become a scientist and contribute to the development of the motherland.
After the college entrance examination, he got his wish and entered Beihang Airlines. When he was a child, he had an inexplicable affection for airplanes, and now, he is one step closer to his dream. During college, he did not slack off in the slightest. In the four years of college, he spent all day running between the classroom and the library, and in the blink of an eye, his full and happy college time had passed.
Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics
At that time, graduating from college was already a high degree, but he was not satisfied, he felt that his current knowledge reserves and professional ability were not enough to support his dreams, and he wanted to continue his studies. In the face of the doubts of the people around him, he just smiled lightly and then began his own study.
The sky paid off, and his night and day study finally paid off. He was admitted to graduate school with honors. During graduate school, he was more diligent, and he put all his energy into studying. After three years, after continuous efforts, his professional knowledge and strength have been greatly improved. After graduating with a master's degree in 1990, he finally came to work for an electronic technology company. This time, he finally began to work truly practically.
Vowed to turn American warplanes into scrap iron
Shortly after his work, the outbreak of a war made him more determined in his choice. In the 1990s, the United States led the troops of various countries to launch the Gulf War. Before that, the war was mostly based on ground warfare, but after this time, the traditional mode of warfare was subverted.
Gulf War
In this war, the United States launched a variety of aircraft, and during the more than forty days of fighting, they carried out various tasks such as reconnaissance, refueling, and air raids. It can be said that this war is a high-tech war, the first high-tech war in human history on such a large scale.
Different from traditional warfare, its characteristics are manifested in the following aspects. First of all, the combat area has undergone qualitative changes, and the area of this war has developed in a three-dimensional direction, making the boundary between the front and the rear more confusing; second, the weapons of this war are more scientific and technological, which greatly improves the combat capability and makes the war develop all day and night; third, in the war, the degree of casualties on the US side is greatly reduced, but the damage to the opponent is fatal.
The impact of this war on the mainland was also enormous, when the mainland's level of science and technology was relatively backward, and military thinking was still stuck in the sixties, not to mention military strength. After this war, it also attracted the attention of many military enthusiasts on the mainland. In this regard, they also conducted a simple simulation, although it was only a simulation, but it also made the mainland feel great pressure.
American warplanes
Under this heavy pressure, the mainland finally realized that only a strong military force can have a place in the international status. In today's era, only by possessing high-tech weapons can we have the initiative in war. In this war, the most eye-catching thing is the appearance of its stealth bomber, just imagine, such an aircraft, can enter the territory of other countries without knowing it, think about it is hairy.
The same is true for the mainland, when the gap in technology between the two countries was huge. Such an aircraft, we can not even detect, let alone prevent. Therefore, the most important thing on the mainland at that time was to develop a radar that could detect stealth fighters. As an expert in this field, Wu Gong is naturally aware of this problem, and if we can't even find the enemy's aircraft now, how can we defend it?
Although the pressure on the mainland was not very much in the international environment at that time, the situation of the Soviet Union was not optimistic. When it falls, the mainland will be threatened by the United States. But in the face of its great military might, we have no ability to resist. Thinking that he was engaged in research in the field of radar, Wu Jianqi silently resisted this heavy responsibility on himself.
Chinese scientist Wu Jianqi
Now that the goal is clear, what should be done? On this issue, he didn't know what to do at the beginning. After studying it for a long time, a bold guess appeared in his mind, if it is not possible to use existing microwave radar, then should it try the former meter-wave radar?
As soon as this idea came out, he did not dare to speak out, but first conducted many experiments on his own, and countless times of hi eyes showed that his idea was valid. At this time, he was overjoyed and told his colleagues about his idea and the results of the experiment. Unsurprisingly, after the colleague heard it, he quickly dismissed his idea.
Previously, the meter-wave radar was indeed the first choice of countries, but with many practices, this radar has many drawbacks. Many drawbacks, such as low accuracy and wide coverage, have gradually faded out of the scientific field. It was replaced by more advanced microwave radars. Colleagues believe that instead of studying this obsolete thing, it is better to study it well and improve the existing products. In the face of his colleagues' doubts, he did not waver, and after countless experiments, he still firmly believed in his conjecture.
Wu Jianqi did research with colleagues
After having an initial idea, he immediately began to form a team, and after a long preparation process, they finally declared the project upwards. But to his disappointment, he did not pass this project at the beginning. But at the moment he was not discouraged, he believed in his choice. By 1992, his project had finally received state support.
Next, he faces an even greater challenge. For the research in this field, the mainland can be said to be a blank, so now, he wants to lead his team to open up this wasteland. The difficulties faced in the research process often make him feel exhausted, and when the team research is in trouble, or even makes mistakes, he will sit silently in the laboratory alone.
He wasn't sure when the study would be successful, and perhaps it would still be a void in a dozen years. But after contemplation, he will readjust his mentality and plunge into scientific research. He has been rooted in this field for ten years. Over time, an incident in 199 led him to vow to develop an anti-stealth radar.
Bombing of Yugoslavia
That year, the United States dropped five missiles at the Chinese Embassy in Yugoslavia, and in an instant the building collapsed, killing several Chinese staff members and injuring more than two dozen others. However, when China asked the US side for an explanation, the other side said that it was just a mistake. The news came back home, making everyone angry, and many patriotic young people poured into the streets to demand a reasonable explanation.
Seeing such a scene, this patriotic scientist could not bear it any longer, and he vowed that he would let the Us side see our strength, so he began to study harder. Sometimes in order to solve a difficult problem, their entire team is immersed in the research room and can't think of eating all day. It is precisely this tenacious will and fighting spirit that have enabled them to open up a fertile land in this wasteland.
The birth of the anti-stealth radar
In 2000, he finally led his team to complete the entire content of the project research, and by this time, they seemed to have seen victory ahead. But this is only a preliminary theoretical study, and if it is to be turned into practical equipment, they will pay more efforts for it. But at this time, there is a huge force hidden in everyone's heart, pushing them forward. Everyone mustered up all their strength, there was no complaint, only buried in the struggle.
Anti-stealth technology
After countless days and nights of unremitting efforts, their sweat has finally paid off. After ten years of hard work, in 2012, the research was finally completed, which means that the mainland has finally independently developed anti-stealth technology. At this time, Wu Gong's heart was undoubtedly excited, about this research, he paid more than twenty years of painstaking efforts, in these twenty years, he put all his energy into this research.
Nowadays, it has finally been successfully developed. At this time, he was eager to try, and wanted to see if the things he had developed really had a certain strength. Soon the opportunity came. At the time of 2013, a US stealth bomber appeared over the mainland's waters, and at this time, the mainland was no longer as helpless as before. The anti-stealth radar independently developed by the mainland quickly locked on to the US plane.
U.S. military aircraft
This move hit the confidence of the United States very well, as its most advanced stealth aircraft, but it was quickly discovered by our side, which made this country, which has always been proud and arrogant, also reacquaint itself. At the same time, this invention of the mainland has also caused a sensation in the world. In such a short period of time, the mainland has made effective precautions against the US stealth bombers, which has shocked all countries. From that moment on, the US planes were no longer invisible to the mainland.
A poignant journey on the road to success
And Wu Jianqi's success is not achieved overnight, for him, his lifelong pursuit is needed by the country. In these more than 20 years of scientific research, he has never forgotten his original intention. He led his team to overcome one problem after another on the road of scientific research.
In this difficult and long road, they have encountered many difficulties, have been questioned by others, and have been treated coldly, but in the face of these, they have never given up. As long as the country is rich and strong and the people are healthy, they are willing to be an obscure devotee to this. In the eyes of his peers, Wu Jianqi is a down-to-earth person, as long as he identifies the goal, he will go down step by step.
Wu Jianqi was interviewed
In the course of his research, he was methodical, never flustered, and although he sometimes encountered difficulties, he never stopped because of it. In many cases, when the experiment fails, he will never be discouraged, but calmly help everyone analyze the reasons for the failure in the experiment, and when everyone is down, he will always cheer for everyone.
It is also under his leadership that this team can come out step by step in the face of many difficulties. It is precisely by relying on his spirit of not accepting defeat and his strong will that the mainland's scientific and technological strength can take a big step forward and the people of the world can look up to the mainland with astonishment. After the successful development of this technology, he still did not stop, not even a moment of relaxation, once again the team to overcome new difficulties. Today, he is focusing on a more difficult technical research, and his concern for the national defense cause has kept him focused on moving forward.
It is precisely with such a patriotic heart that he has never stopped on the road of national defense science and technology. After more than 20 years of research, the radar research of the mainland has finally walked in the forefront of the world and become a leader. And he has always adhered to the front line of scientific research, and it is this spirit that makes people admire.
Wu Jianqi discussed with colleagues in the dormitory
In 2012, he once again entered the university to pursue a doctorate. Although he has successfully developed an anti-stealth missile and fulfilled his original vow, he still has not stopped learning and is still trying to improve himself. In 2017, he also received a million rewards for the hanger for his own efforts.
At that time, the funding in the field of scientific research in the mainland was not much, and the salaries of scientific researchers were also very small, but he still chose to lead his team and broke through in this completely blank field. In their hearts, they do not value how much economic benefits this job can bring to themselves, for these scientific researchers, as long as they can promote the development of national science and technology, they will not hesitate to pay.
They are the role models in our hearts, and it is precisely because of their unrequited dedication that the mainland has ushered in this beautiful era. It is the presence of scientists like them that makes the continent stronger and the lives of the people more healthy. They have given all their energy to the motherland and are bent on the construction of national security, and it is they who make us look forward to a better and better tomorrow.
Mainland researchers
In order to ensure the security of the country, Elder Wu gradually entered middle age from a young handsome young man. After more than two decades of dedicated research, he fulfilled his promise. He devoted his life to the national defense construction of the country, pouring his youth and sweat into this field. No matter how difficult it is ahead, he relies on his tenacious perseverance to forge ahead on this road.
Perhaps when we were young, like him, we longed to become a great scientist, eager to contribute to the development of the motherland, and eager to become the pillar of the country. But how many people, for this dream, for their original intentions, have really struggled. Elder Wu is our role model, and only by persevering in our struggle can we succeed.
There are many scientists on the mainland who are as silently dedicated as he is, who are anonymous and selfless in various fields. It is precisely because of heroes like Elder Wu that the mainland will develop so fast, and it is precisely because of them that we can enjoy the peaceful and beautiful air, they should be respected by people, and their spirit is worth learning from every Chinese, only in this way will our country and nation go further.
