Outstanding contribution
This was originally an ordinary day, but it is a special day worth remembering for the whole of China and even the world. Today is the birthday of Academician Chen Wei, a national soldier who charged ahead during the new crown epidemic and dedicated herself to the cause of epidemic prevention for the motherland, is spending the last birthday of her life under the attention of the people of the whole country.
Recalling that exhilarating scene that year, Chen Wei, who was 58 years old at the time, resolutely pulled up her wrinkled right arm and became the first person to receive the new crown vaccine.
Although the years are ruthless, Chen Wei's original black hair has long since turned into beautiful white hair, but her pure heart for the motherland and her determination to serve the country have never changed.
This persistent enthusiasm is the inexhaustible source of motivation that supports her to never be afraid and move forward bravely in the face of the many tests of the new crown epidemic.
Not long ago, when Chen Wei attended an important ceremony on television, her old and haggard face, who had not appeared for a long time, shocked the whole country. However, when she stepped onto the podium with a dragon-like pace, the scene resounded with thunderous applause, which could not be subsided for a long time.
Everyone was deeply impressed by her dedication to her career.
This scene brought tears to her husband Ma Yiming who was standing in the crowd. As Chen Wei's closest confidant, he knows that his wife's life is almost entirely dedicated to scientific research, even in her twilight years, she is still unswerving and dedicated.
Watching his wife's white hair fly and accept the salutes and cheers of the audience, Ma Yiming's heart was filled with unprecedented pride and pride.
The Bond of Love
The origin of the story begins with a train encounter in April 1989. At that time, Ma Yiming was 35 years old, and as a technician in a winery in Qingdao, although he was outstanding and handsome, he could be called "rich and handsome", but he had always been in the ranks of bachelors.
In order to escape the pressure of urging marriage from the outside world, Ma Yiming resolutely resigned from his job in the winery and went to Beijing to find another job.
Who would have thought that on the train back to his hometown in Shandong, a beautiful and lively female college student walked into his life and started a marriage with ups and downs.
It was a sunny day, the train was crowded, and Ma Yiming occupied an empty seat in advance. As the train approached to start, he casually looked up at the other end of the carriage, and a girl in a green coat with her hair blown by the wind immediately caught his attention.
She looked down intently as she read, seemingly completely immersed in her own world, which was intoxicatingly beautiful.
Ma Yiming was attracted by her outstanding beauty and unique temperament, and stared at her for a long time. At this moment, the girl seemed to be aware of it, raised her head and made eye contact with Ma Yiming.
The eyes of the two were intertwined like this, Ma Yiming only felt that his brain was suddenly a little short-circuited, and when he was at a loss, he moved his position back slightly, waved his hand at the girl, and signaled that she could come and sit.
The girl hesitated for a moment, but finally walked over slowly and sat down beside Ma Yiming.
"Hello, my name is Chen Wei, and I am currently studying for a master's degree at Tsinghua University. I came here to visit Mount Tai.
In this way, the two hungry wolves thirsted for each other's knowledge and insights, and the topic expanded from astronomy and geography to life. Ma Yiming has rich experience and unique insights, which makes Chen Wei frequently praised; And Chen Wei's witty and humorous personality also made Ma Yiming laugh constantly.
Talking and laughing, Ma Yiming felt an unprecedented heartbeat, and he was inextricably fascinated by this talented woman.
Approaching the terminal of the train, Ma Yiming made up his mind to take practical action for this unexpected encounter. He did not hesitate to propose to Chen Wei that he would make a special trip from Qingdao to Beijing again next week, and sincerely invited her to meet again.
What made him excited was that Chen Wei did not shirk at all, and readily agreed.
In this way, just one train encounter opened the curtain of a ups and downs of marriage between Ma Yiming and Chen Wei. The following week was undoubtedly a torturous wait for Ma Yiming, and when he really saw Chen Wei again, his admiration was even more surging, and he decided to pursue this goddess desperately.
Tough resistance
Chen Wei and Ma Yiming's relationship is undoubtedly a sensational conversation in Tsinghua Park, after all, Ma Yiming was just an ordinary winery technician at that time, and Chen Wei was a talented woman who led the trend in the college, and there was a 12-year age gap between the two.
This untimely marriage was strongly opposed by the parents of both sides.
Ma Yiming's parents are deeply afraid that their son will pay too much and end up with nothing. They couldn't see any shining points worthy of Chen Wei's expectations, so they tried every possible means to dissuade Ma Yiming from giving up this relationship.
At the same time, Chen Wei's parents' attitude was even tougher, they directly refused to see Ma Yiming's face, and resolutely asked their daughter to break up with this "wine bag and rice bag".
In the face of the humiliation and resistance of their families, the two used surprising wisdom and courage to resolve them one by one. Chen Wei deliberately invited her parents to visit Beijing, while Ma Yiming pretended to be an enthusiastic guide and served the elderly couple carefully and thoughtfully during the trip.
Along the way, he sometimes took pictures for them, and sometimes explained the places of interest along the way, and his meticulous intentions soon won the hearts of the old people.
Who would have thought that in an unintentional chat, the two old men actually learned from this enthusiastic tour guide that he was actually their daughter's boyfriend Ma Yiming! This frightened them, and the two old faces collapsed in one fell swoop.
Since then, Ma Yiming and Chen Wei have had to bear the scrutiny of their families and accept the test of various grievances.
However, after getting along for a period of time, the old people saw the real side of Ma Yiming - he was diligent, enthusiastic, conscientious, and a good man who was respected.
Especially after witnessing the difficult choice he made in order to pursue his daughter, Chen Wei's parents had to re-examine this marriage and finally slowly accepted Ma Yiming.
In order to maintain this hard-won fate, Ma Yiming made the most important decision in his life - he resolutely resigned from his job at Qingdao Winery and followed Chen Wei to Beijing wholeheartedly.
They rented a small house of only more than 10 square meters in Shijingshan District, not far from Chen Wei's school, and began to live a hard life of tightening their belts.
In that rental house with only a kerosene stove and an old sofa, the two embark on a humble and tenacious love journey. Lying on the hard wooden bed, they talked freely about their ideals and shared hopes, and strengthened their determination to tide over the difficulties together with each other's body temperature.
with soaring aspirations
In 1991, Chen Wei successfully completed her studies and entered a well-known biomedical company in Shenzhen as she wished. For her husband Ma Yiming, witnessing the take-off of his wife's career is the greatest pride in his life.
However, this is only the beginning of Chen Wei's life journey, and the real turning point is still to come.
Not long after, during an experience of sending antibodies to her mentor, Chen Wei was deeply attracted and shocked by the medical research career of the Academy of Military Medical Sciences. Although her family and friends have retained her and persuaded her not to give up her lucrative job prospects, Chen Wei's desire to serve the country is already burning.
In the blink of an eye, it has been more than 30 years since I entered the barracks. These 30 years are the most wonderful years of Chen Wei's life, and they are also the eventful years when she has made unparalleled contributions to the country.
Time and time again, she put her life at risk, and she regarded death as her home at the forefront of medical research. When everyone was worried about her safety, only her husband Ma Yiming gave understanding and support.
He understands that his wife's mission is more important than Mount Tai, and the needs of the country are above all else.
Yes, whenever Chen Wei works overtime day and night for the anti-epidemic cause, Ma Yiming will silently wait for his wife to return from work in front of the window; Whenever Chen Wei is isolated, he becomes the only link with the outside world; Whenever Chen Wei goes to the epidemic area, he takes care of the children's daily life...... In the past 30 years, Ma Yiming has shown his full support for his wife's career with practical actions, and interpreted what is the highest state of love.
For Ma Yiming, the years are not a long wait, but a relay of mission; The wife's departure is not a short-term separation, but a longer-term protection.
How many days and nights did he wander alone in the dark, but still waited with almost devout devotion for his wife's return, comforting her tiredness and relieving her fatigue.
When his wife was decisive on the battlefield to overcome the epidemic, Ma Yiming was her strong backbone; When she was exhausted in the laboratory, Ma Yiming was her precious bosom friend.
On the difficult road to fight the epidemic, Chen Wei is undoubtedly an outstanding national soldier, and Ma Yiming is also her indispensable solid backing.
Thin water flows
The scientific research career undoubtedly crushed most of Chen Wei's life, and what made her feel guilty was that it made her have no time to take care of her family and give her children too much maternal love. Whenever he sees other friends being intimate with his mother and playing hand in hand, his son Ma Eun-ho always feels jealous and dissatisfied.
Ma Yiming saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart. As a father, he knows his wife's concern for his children, but he also understands Chen Weizhen's persistence and persistence in transforming the environment.
So, he earnestly taught his son to learn to accept and appreciate his mother's career choice.
"Your mother is a hero, not only to protect our family, but also to protect thousands of families throughout China. It is precisely because of my mother's selfless dedication and firm belief that I have been able to exchange for the harmonious reunion of hundreds of millions of families.
Ma Yiming said earnestly.
At a young age, Ma Eun-ho may not fully understand the value of heroism, but his unswerving admiration for his mother has slowly brewed in his heart.
The title of People's Hero is certainly an honor for Chen Wei to become famous at the age of 37, but it is this honor that makes her realize the long-term responsibility and mission of her career.
In the face of the severe consequences of various biological and chemical weapons that may be brought about by wartime, as well as the threat of epidemics to lives in peacetime, Chen Wei did not choose to sit idly by, but was determined to devote herself to the construction of the national bioepidemic prevention system.
And to accomplish this great cause, it is not enough to rely on the strength of one person, she needs to train a large number of people with lofty ideals to take over.
Ma Yiming understood his wife's thoughts, so he taught his son to learn to identify with and support his mother. When Ma Enhao entered the university and chose a major in bioengineering, Ma Yiming was relieved and proud.
Yes, the successor has begun to take shape, and the ambition of the national warrior will be continued.
The long river of years is flowing, and Chen Wei is already pale and old. Along the way, she has poured all her heart and soul into it, but she is full of joy to see that she has passed on this national trust to the next generation.
And the people who have always been by her side are her husband Ma Yiming and son Ma Enhao.
This father and son in an ordinary family interpret the extraordinary spiritual height with ordinary figures. Ma Yiming's greatest pride in his life is to be able to stay with this heroine for a lifetime, share weal and woe with her, and work together to write a glorious chapter in the country's medical and health undertakings.
