She experienced 4 marriages in her 30s, using the help of her husband in each marriage to take her life to the next level, and at the age of 39, she was hired by the California Institute of Technology as a tenured professor in the school's department of bioengineering.
Prior to this, only one Mr. Qian Lao, a Chinese of Chinese descent, had been granted this position, and the news spread back to China, causing great controversy.
How did a college student who was admitted to an ordinary university from a rural background and eventually become a "tenured professor" at the peak of her life, how did she calculate step by step in her life?
Hello everyone, I am Inspector Theo, and today we will talk about Qian Lulu, who is known as the "Su Daji of Academia".
Extreme luck
In 1980, Qian Lulu was born in an ordinary family in Anhui, and went to an ordinary university, Nanjing Railway College, due to a mistake in the college entrance examination.
I thought that I would graduate from college, work, get married, have children, and ordinary people would pass this life.
But I have to say that sometimes the favor of fate, which we can also call luck, will invisibly change the direction of a life trajectory.
During Qian Lulu's college years, Nanjing Railway College was merged into Southeast University, and in an instant it changed from an ordinary university to a key university in 985, giving Qian Lulu a huge surprise when she failed the college entrance examination.
After graduation, Qian Lulu continued her studies and was determined to enter the graduate school. She chose one of the many suitors during college to become his boyfriend.
Because they are both excellent in learning and have common hobbies, after graduating from undergraduate, the two quickly entered into marriage with the permission of both parents.
After marriage, Qian Lulu is not at ease to become a housewife, for her marriage can be a safe haven, a rest station, but it can never be the end.
Qian Lulu is bent on the examination and research, the husband did not object, after all, for the family, the wife is admitted to the graduate school, it is also good for the development of the family, in order to support the wife to study for the graduate school, he took the initiative to undertake housework, but also intimately for the wife to find a variety of review materials.
After several failures, he was finally admitted to the School of Life Science and Technology of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Originally, the husband thought that after being admitted to graduate school, it would be over, and the wife would be able to share her mind with the family.
But I didn't think that this time the examination and research had become the "broken road" of their marriage.
The husband has never been able to understand his wife's true pursuit of academics, and after entering Shanghai Jiao Tong University, the environment around his wife has changed dramatically.
A group of academic celebrities gathered together to discuss things that constantly updated their cognition, and countless new knowledge pushed themselves to make rapid progress, opening their horizons and patterns.
Marriage pays attention to walking side by side, the most taboo is to stand still, and as Qian Lulu constantly improves herself and her husband's communication is becoming less and less.
There is nothing wrong with Qian Lulu pursuing a career, but her husband is seeking family stability, and the discord between the three views has also created this marriage that cannot reach the end.
Married
When Qian Lulu did research in the Polytechnic Building, the surrounding area was basically full of boys, and Qian Lulu was particularly precious in a group of boys, coupled with a better appearance, it was like a goddess.
But most men are deterred when they learn that she is married, but there are exceptions to everything, a doctor of Shanghai Jiaotong University, in addition to profound knowledge, but also handsome appearance.
Although both parties have families, because of work matters, Qian Lulu often consults each other, and after a long time, secretly has feelings, and the two have filed for divorce.
Qian Lulu's husband already had a premonition in his heart, the two were no longer the same person, and did not interfere too much with Qian Lulu's divorce request.
After the two returned to being single, they quickly received a marriage license together, and with her husband's academic blessings, coupled with her own hard work, her graduate school career was even stronger than hanging.
Qian Lulu was very persistent in the pursuit of success all the way, in order to speed up the pace and popularity, in 2006 also went to participate in the casting of Lin Daiyu in the TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber".
But in the academic circle of girls are originally few groups, Qian Lulu is exceptionally outstanding, change a place where the entertainment industry is beautiful like a cloud, do not look at academics, look at the value, Qian Lulu is very ordinary.
Through this failure, she also understood where her advantages were.
After getting the graduate diploma, Qian Lulu continued to study for a doctorate, and with the example of a doctoral student's husband around, she could certainly take fewer detours.
In addition to teaching Qian Lulu's knowledge, her husband also has school choice, doctoral direction, and thesis writing, which has saved Qian Lulu a lot of trouble.
Let her successfully become a doctoral student at Jiaotong University, and both husband and wife are doctors, which is also a good story in the circle.
In our lives, when we hear about female doctors, we may stay away, but for people in the same circle, Qian Lulu can be described as both talented and complete.
As Qian Lulu climbed higher, the better the people she knew, and during her doctoral studies, she knew a man who was better than the previous two, and this man also launched a fierce pursuit of Qian Lulu.
Ambitious
Qian Lulu always remained sober, taking the pursuit of a career first, quickly divorced her second husband, and married this man who could help him more.
With the help of her third husband, Qian Lulu's doctoral career was smooth sailing.
With her husband's help to strengthen her efforts, Qian Lulu made rapid progress in computer research and published a paper on "Map of China assembled by DNA" in a domestic scientific research journal.
This is the world's first asymmetric 2-dimensional DNA pattern, which has received widespread attention from scholars in the industry, and Qian Lulu obtained a doctoral diploma from Shanghai Jiaotong University with this thesis.
Although Qian Lulu's marriage path is not smooth, it has to be said that every husband she chooses is the "east wind" of her advancement.
After receiving her doctoral diploma, Qian Lulu met her fourth husband, Eric Winfrey, a 38-year-old professor at the California Institute of Technology who was also a computer scientist and bioengineer.
Qian Lulu was responsible for receiving this big bull of academia at that time, perhaps a talented person who cherished each other and attracted each other.
Even this Eric Winfrey was attracted to Qian Lulu, and the few days of contact in China left a deep impression on his heart.
After returning to the United States, his mind was full of Qian Lulu, and such affliction "torture" made him decide to take the initiative, and he privately invited Qian Lulu to the California Institute of Technology for academic visits.
This opportunity Qian Lulu naturally wanted to grasp, eric Winfrey in order to please Qian Lulu, introduced the "DNA computer" father Ryan Adelman to her.
The relationship between the two quickly warmed up in this conversation, and this exchange allowed Qian Lulu to study at the California Institute of Technology in the United States. During the three years of studying abroad, Qian Lulu and Eric Winfrey spent time together day and night.
In 2010, Qian Lulu divorced her long-separated husband, threw herself into the arms of Winfrey, and became an American citizen.
To say how much this Winfrey loves Qian Lulu, it depends on what crazy things he has done for Qian Lulu.
After becoming an American citizen, Qian Lulu studied and worked at the California Institute of Technology as a senior visiting scholar.
Qian Lulu wanted to teach at the California Institute of Technology, and according to Qian Lulu's conditions at that time, she did not have the ability to teach, but Winfrey found a senior school for his wife.
With the determination to advance and retreat with his wife, if the school still wants him to continue teaching, it must accept his wife to teach, and finally the top management did not agree to this request, and sure enough, Winfrey gave the school a demonstration in order to suspend the school for a year for Qian Lulu.
However, during the suspension of school, Winfrey still took Qian Lulu to Harvard Medical School in the United Kingdom to enrich herself, and in July 2013, Qian Lulu met the teaching requirements as a senior visiting person and became an assistant professor of bioengineering at the California Institute of Technology.
But how could Qian Lulu want to be a professor's assistant, and this time her husband couldn't help, after all, her husband and her own research direction were not the same, and she couldn't teach anything anymore.
Qian Lulu has come all the way to this position, in addition to the help of her previous husbands, she is more dependent on her own continuous efforts to improve.
During her tenure as a professor's assistant, Qian Lulu set up her own laboratory, led her students to study hard, and focused all her energy on scientific research.
After 4 years, Qian Lulu and his team have published papers in major well-known journals. The study of "painting the Mona Lisa with DNA" became the cover of the journal Nature, and Qian Lulu was promoted to associate professor based on these results.
This is just one step away from the full professor.
On September 18, 2017, Qian Lulu published a paper in the journal Science, announcing the birth of a DNA robot developed by her and his team. This achievement has been recognized by various scientists, and the foundation for excitement has been laid in the early stage.
In January 2019, Qian Lulu was finally hired as a tenured professor by the California Institute of Technology, and it should be known that there are 76 Nobel prize winners at the California Institute of Technology alone, and Qian Lulu only took 12 years at the age of 39 to get achievements that others may not be able to reach in their entire lives.
The news spread across the country and caused a great deal of discussion on social media, and more than her remarkable achievements, everyone talked about her using her husband to ascend to the throne.
We have to say that on his way, her husband gave her help, and she absorbed the knowledge of her husbands through her own efforts, but she could not ignore her own continuous pursuit of her career.
Never slacken off on yourself, always keep a clear head, and be uneasy about the status quo.
Moreover, as you continue to improve your horizons and patterns, meeting better people can answer your questions for yourself, which is an attraction for Qian Lulu in itself.
The above is today's story report, do you belong to the pro-Qian Lulu faction? Or do you think that she uses others to achieve her own goals, which is very shameful and dare not agree?
