One night in September 1995, a young man stood on the balcony of a family in Paris, France, crying and laughing, holding in his hand a book with the title "Autobiography of Bill Gates." He turned and turned, and the more he turned the pages, the more unstable his mood became, and finally he let out a long sigh and slammed the book heavily on the balcony floor, throwing his hands into the air.
Soon, the young man touched the ground and sacrificed his life forever to this land in Paris, France.
The suicide of the youth soon attracted the attention of the surrounding residents, and after the police car arrived at the scene, the identity of the youth was also exposed, at this time, everyone suddenly realized that the world had lost a great physicist - Feng Xiqiao.
Feng Xiqiao died in Paris as a full professor at the University of California, Los Angeles, but he was an authentic Chinese and was born in Beijing in 1960. As a child of senior engineer and chief physician, Feng Xiqiao has received a good education since he was a child and has never suffered.
I have to say that his growth experience is also very worthy of this origin, since Feng Xiqiao began to study, the academic performance is very excellent, in addition to the development of the field of reading, but also pay special attention to the cultivation of extracurricular activities. Equipment large and small piles up all over the home, but the most worth mentioning is the violin.
At the age of seven, Feng Xiqiao accidentally heard the sound of the violin playing, and at this moment, he was deeply attracted, and the young Feng Xiqiao quickly asked his parents what instrument it was, and showed great curiosity. Father Feng and Mother Feng naturally knew what their son meant, but at that time, the violin was not easily available, so the two of them had difficulty for the first time for their son's interest.
However, Feng Xiqiao's interest in the violin only increased, and Feng's father and mother had to spend a lot of money to get an imported violin, and entrusted many people to find the sheet music and the violin teacher. After a period of study, Feng Xiqiao did not live up to his parents' expectations, and the learning progress was very rapid, but in three years, he could already play many solo violin pieces freely.
In the process of growing up, Feng Xiqiao always likes to play the violin for the people around him, he enjoys the way the audience revels in the sound of the piano, and being able to get everyone's praise is his happiest thing.
Feng Xiqiao of Duoqi Development went all the way to high school, and in the year of his second year of high school, Feng Xiqiao met a good day - the state resumed the college entrance examination. Having completed all the courses in high school, he was anxious to participate in the 1977 college entrance examination, you know, after the news of the country's resumption of the college entrance examination was announced, the people of the whole country were as excited as Feng Xiqiao.
As a result, more than 10 million people signed up for the college entrance examination that year, and even if some people did not attend the exam, there were still more than 5 million competitors.
In the face of such a strong competition, both the teachers and the Feng family's parents sweated for Feng Xiqiao. However, Feng Xiqiao behaved very easily, and finally entered the physics department of Peking University with excellent results. The combination of the two keywords of 17-year-old, high school sophomore, and the physics department of Peking University is enough to make Feng Xiqiao an explosive news all over the country.
After entering Peking University, in addition to his favorite violin, Feng Xiqiao liked English again, he often held up English books to read, and after a few years, the English level has been enough to communicate with foreign friends without obstacles. In Feng Xiqiao's junior year, the school held a Sino-US joint physics graduate examination, such a precious opportunity, Feng Xiqiao is bound to try.
Just like the college entrance examination in the second year of high school, this exam was a big gamble for Feng Xiqiao, in order to get good results in the exam, he had to use the shortest time to collect the knowledge he had not yet learned. After a period of hard work, Feng Xiqiao was admitted to Harvard University with the first place in Peking University and the fourth place in the country, and he was only 20 years old this year.
In the 1980s, the spring breeze of reform and opening up blew all over the country, the country is in need of talents to go abroad for further study, to contribute to the construction and development of the country, Feng Xiqiao, who received the opportunity of the national public to send abroad, naturally will not disappoint the country, and after successfully completing his university studies, he took a plane to the United States.
When he first arrived in the United States, Feng Xiqiao also experienced what frustration was, although he was confident in his English, after entering the American classroom, he found that his speed of understanding could not keep up with the speed of the teacher's lectures. After a class, Feng Xiqiao heard almost nothing, and Feng Xiqiao, who realized the current situation, had to quickly write down the notes written by the teacher in the class and began to think about countermeasures.
Then, he spent nearly a month to familiarize himself with the teacher's lecture habits and lecture speed, and later even the exchange of professional vocabulary was not a problem for Feng Xiqiao. Trying to overcome Feng Xiqiao's inferiority as an international student, he became the top student in the class again, and even the professors and teachers praised him one after another.
In order to express its praise for Feng Xiqiao, the college awarded Feng Xiqiao the "Outstanding Graduate Student of the Year Award" and awarded him a full scholarship to solve his financial problems.
Feng Xiqiao, who has no worries, has attacked the physics world all the way, and at the age of 23, he published his papers in heavyweight journals and maintained several papers every year. Feng Xiqiao has long been a rare figure in condensed physics, and all people in the physics community are shocked by this Chinese genius.
In 1986, Feng Xiqiao completed his doctoral thesis while working, and successfully joined the ranks of Harvard doctors, when he was only 26 years old. For such a shining new star in physics, many well-known universities want to compete for him, and after much thought, Feng Xiqiao chose to become an assistant professor at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Perhaps it is the mutual achievement of famous universities and Feng Xiqiao, after serving as an assistant professor, Feng Xiqiao's achievements in physics have risen a new ladder, and dozens of papers are published every year that many people cannot reach. These papers are still cited by many people today, and some even hundreds of citations are as high as hundreds of times.
Many asserted that it would not be long before Feng Xiqiao took the Nobel Prize in Physics into his pocket. Sure enough, in 1995, Feng Xiqiao was promoted from assistant professor to full professor. However, fate will not let a person always be smooth, but Feng Xiqiao, who has been soaring all the way in physics, has planted a big heel in emotion, which has made him depressed and no longer has the appearance of academic prestige.
When Feng Xiqiao went to Paris for an academic conference, he met a French girl who was a full ten years older than Feng Xiqiao, and despite this, the romance and elegance of this French girl still captured Feng Xiqiao's heart.
Feng Xiqiao, who had never experienced feelings, immediately launched a fierce pursuit of the other party, and after a period of time, the other party finally lost the battle and agreed to associate with him. At first, the love between the two was very sweet, the two traveled to Europe together, doing all the things that couples would do, and that time could be described as Feng Xiqiao's happiest time.
After a few months of dating, the French girl thought that the relationship between the two had become more mature, so she proposed to live with Feng Xiqiao, and Feng Xiqiao, who heard the news, was overjoyed. He actively arranged the home belonging to the two men, and while arranging them, he fantasized about the future of the two.
In Feng Xiqiao's eyes, the two can really go from love to cohabitation and eventually to marriage, but unfortunately, this French woman does not think so, she does not think about her and Feng Xiqiao's future, so after living together for a year, when Feng Xiqiao proposed to her, the woman's performance was extremely fierce. She not only rejected Feng Xiqiao's request, but also said the gap between herself and Feng Xiqiao word by word, and the gap between the two was not only in age, but also in geography and economy.
These words broke Feng Xiqiao's heart, and he did not expect that he had invested in a relationship so hard that he would end up like this.
For a long time to come, Feng Xiqiao was difficult to lift his spirits, and finally, he got the opportunity to go to Europe again to attend academic conferences, and Feng Xiqiao made up his mind to chase his girlfriend back. Seeing his girlfriend again, Feng Xiqiao had a lot of words to say, but he only saw his girlfriend's cold eyes and tired expression.
Feng Xiqiao did not accept defeat, and asked several times, but unfortunately, the other party was colder than ever, as if Feng Xiqiao was a strange harassment demon. At this moment, he was desperate and left the French woman in a daze.
Unexpectedly, the next time Feng Xiqiao's news came out, it was actually the news of his death.
In 1996, the 36-year-old Feng Xiqiao jumped from a building in Paris, France, and everyone in the physics community felt sorry for the genius's departure.
In addition, the outside world has speculated about the cause of Feng Xiqiao's suicide, and many people believe that the French woman is the culprit of Feng Xiqiao's jumping off the building. This speculation is not unfounded, Feng Xiqiao died in France, France is the place where the two met and fell in love, which is indeed evocative. After all, for a professor with blank feelings, an unforgettable and failed love can be fatal.
Many people speculated with the books at Feng Xiqiao's jumping building that the two broke up because the other party hated Feng Xiqiao for being too poor. There are rumors that Feng Xiqiao's French girlfriend likes to buy luxury goods very much, and when the two broke up, they also said that Feng Xiqiao could not meet his needs.
A "Bill Gates Autobiography" on a tall building may make Feng Xiqiao, who has been busy with academics all his life, feel sorry for his economic incompetence, think about the significance of what he has done, and then choose to give up his life.
Although these claims sound absurd and cannot be studied now, Feng Xiqiao's departure has become a fact, and we should mourn the loss of a rare talent in academia. Whether Feng Xiqiao is a genius or not, he has spent countless sweaty days and nights to contribute to science, and he deserves to be known and remembered.
