Introduction: There was a saying that I remember very deeply, "Science has no borders, but scientists have a motherland", which is the true expression of Mr. Qian Sanqiang, a famous patriotic scientist, from the bottom of his heart. As an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the founder of the mainland's atomic energy science cause, and the father of the two bombs, Qian Sanqiang repaid the motherland with his life's efforts, and when the motherland faced the most difficulties, he and his colleagues worked together to overcome one hurdle after another that was considered impossible to overcome. In fact, there are also some patriots among contemporary young scientists, such as Shi Yigong, an academician who founded Westlake University, who once taught at Princeton University in the United States with a high salary and enjoyed high salaries, but then resolutely chose to return to China, which moved us.
After Shi Yigong returned to Tsinghua's alma mater, he almost started his business from 0, and eventually made the structural biology discipline in the mainland develop rapidly, and later he served as the vice president of Tsinghua. In order to open up a new school-running model and allow the mainland to have its own Stanford University, he chose to leave after teaching at Tsinghua for many years and founded Westlake University with a group of like-minded friends in the scientific community. Although Shi Yigong's approach has aroused a lot of speculation from the outside world, he has practiced his original mission with practical actions and continues to work hard for the development of mainland higher education.
Speaking of Shi Yigong's patriotic feelings, this point is also a good inheritance and development among his students, such as his most proud protégé Yan Ning is a typical representative, speaking of the 45-year-old Yan Ning, known as the "Goddess of Tsinghua" in the industry, who has achieved success in learning under the guidance of Shi Yigong, once left China in 17 years and chose to teach full-time at Princeton University was questioned, and now she has chosen to return to China again, and has shown us her determination in a full-time manner, but this still caused some doubts from the outside world, Think it's just a show.
A simple sentence uttered by Yan Ning's father in an interview expressed Yan Ning's patriotic touching feelings
Yan Ning's father is named Yan Jingjun is a native of Shandong, from the interview footage, it can be seen that this old man who is nearly seventy years old has a very kind face, and he and his wife have always been very supportive of their daughter's work, and the daughter also specifically asked the second elder for instructions when she went abroad for the second time, and the two expressed complete support without any complaints.
Although Yan Jingjun did not know much about the work his daughter was engaged in, they expressed their love for her daughter in very simple words, and at the same time responded to some doubts more directly. Elder Yan Jingjun answered questions from the outside world in this way, saying: "Whether in the United States or returning to the motherland, she is for the development of the biological science cause of the motherland and even the world. "I hope she will take good care of her body and make more contributions to the motherland!"

This shows that Yan Ning is patriotic, and this time she returned to the motherland and will go to Shenzhen to serve purely to contribute her own strength to the country's scientific development
Yan Ning once set a record for the youngest doctoral supervisor at Tsinghua University and was successfully elected as a foreign academician in the United States
Yan Ning, who was admitted to Tsinghua University as a top student in Shandong, did not hesitate to apply for biology when faced with many professional choices, which is not only her hobby but also the best embodiment of her dedication to scientific research.
After graduating from Tsinghua, Yan Ning, who went to Princeton University for a doctoral study, met his mentor Shi Yigong here, worked with Shi Yigong at Princeton University for several years after graduation, and returned to Tsinghua with Shi Yigong in 2007.
At the age of less than 30, she became the youngest doctoral supervisor at Tsinghua University, and since then, Yan Ning, who has continuously achieved research results in scientific research, has also become a foreign academician of the National Academy of Sciences, and returned to her alma mater, Princeton University, for the second time in 17 years to teach.
At the "2022 Shenzhen Global Innovation Talent Forum", Yan Ning once again made a bold decision to leave full-time from the United States and will come to Guangdong to establish the Shenzhen Academy of Medical Sciences and serve as the president of the academy.
We have reason to believe that this talented woman of Tsinghua can create brilliance in her future career, and at the same time, we hope that everyone can understand Yan Ning from the bottom of their hearts, and stop blaming this patriotic scientist, what do you think of this?
