introduction
Li Zhen was recommended by Yang Zhenning to study physics at the age of 19, and won a doctorate degree from MIT in just five years.
Of course, the mainland also hopes that Li Zhen can return to the motherland to serve the country, just when everyone thought that Li Zhen would return to the motherland, but he once refused the invitation of the motherland and chose to stay in the United States.
A young genius, a top student among top students
Li Zhen was born in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, his family is very ordinary, but he never gave up his efforts, and he has been obsessed with physics and mathematics since he went to school, in the face of boring numbers and experiments, Li Zhen can always find different happiness, and he can always put forward his own opinions and opinions on the knowledge he has learned.
In the eyes of the teacher, Li Zhen is a good student who concentrates on learning and works hard, and after class, Li Zhen often does some research outside of book knowledge, such as microelectronics, and he often finds books to study by himself.
Because physics is his hobby, and he also likes to study very much, so Li Zhen's grades are very good, and he has won the first place many times in large and small competitions.
In this way, Li Zhen stands out in the competition every time, he has become someone else's child, in the eyes of his classmates, he is a genius, a top student among top students, but in the face of such titles and praises, Li Zhen does not care very much.
He was still immersed in his own world, seriously studying physics and mathematics, and this continued until Li Zhen went to high school, when Li Zhen, who was only 18 years old, participated in the 2004 Asian Physics Competition and the International Physics Olympiad.
This game is no longer a small fight in the school, Li Zhen is facing top teenagers from all over the world, but Li Zhen did not disappoint everyone, won the double championship in one fell swoop, and for a while Li Zhen was in the limelight and became a "physics genius" that major universities in the world are vying for.
After all, being able to stand out among the world's top players and win a double championship, Li Zhen's strength in physics should not be underestimated.
In the face of invitations from major universities, Li Zhen still chose a domestic university and entered the basic science class of Tsinghua University.
For ordinary people, Tsinghua University may already be an unattainable dream, but for Li Zhen, a physics genius, Tsinghua University is just a stepping stone for him and the beginning of his brilliant life.
Here he met the mentor who made him climb to the peak of his life - Yang Zhenning, Yang Zhenning's study and career are not like Li Zhen, as if he is hanging, his study step by step, although tortuous, but the result is good.
Yang Zhenning's tortuous but open-minded life
When Yang Zhenning was born, the center was in turmoil, but his parents supported him to go to school and study, and began to teach him to read and write at the age of 4.
Although affected by the war, Yang Zhenning never gave up studying, and after hard work, he was admitted to Southwest Associated University, which was already the top university in China at that time, and he still studied physics in college.
In college, he has always maintained his love for physics, not only won a scholarship, but also was admitted to the graduate school of the Institute of Physics of Tsinghua University.
In the United States, he studied under the famous Russian physicist Edward Taylor, and successfully obtained his Ph.D., and then began postdoctoral research at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton.
The 17 years at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton were the golden 17 years of Yang Zhenning's physical research, and many of his important research results were studied here, and he and Mills also studied the Yang-Mills gauge field theory, making him the third physicist after Einstein and Dirac to write the equation of energy mechanism.
At the same time, in 1956, Yang Chenning and Tsung-Dao Lee published a paper on the theory of non-conservation of universal symmetry, which overturned the law of conservation of universal symmetry, and the following year Yang Zhenning won the Nobel Prize in Physics for this theoretical achievement, which shows Yang Chenning's achievements in physical research.
In 1971, Yang Zhenning returned to China for a visit and injected new vitality into the development of China's physics academic community.
Yang Zhenning began teaching at Tsinghua University in 1997, and after retiring, he began to concentrate on teaching at Tsinghua University, and it was at this time that Li Zhen met Yang Zhenning.
Li Zhen studied in the United States
The sympathy between genius and genius, even the gap between the years is unstoppable, in Tsinghua, after Yang Zhenning saw Li Zhen, he paid great attention to this genius boy.
He also praised Li Zhen as "one of the best 2 or 3 young physicists I have ever met".
As a world-renowned physics research scholar, Yang Zhenning has seen many physicists, but he has such a high evaluation of Li Zhen, which shows Li Zhen's talent.
In 2004, Li Zhen went to Tsinghua University to study, and in 2005, Yang Zhenning recommended him to study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States.
Li Zhen came to MIT with Yang Zhenning's expectations to study computer science and engineering, which are the world's No. 1 majors at MIT.
When he came to the top universities in the United States, Li Zhen saw the gap, so he worked harder, and he couldn't speak English, so he practiced hard to adapt himself to the study life in the United States, and he always maintained this original intention in the United States, he knew the purpose of coming to the United States.
He also never lived up to the expectations of Mr. Yang Zhenning, and in just six years, he completed his graduate and doctoral studies, and became an outstanding doctoral student who graduated from MIT at the age of 24.
In the past six years, Li Zhen also served as the vice chairman of the International Forum on Advances in Electromagnetic Research and the chairman of the MIT Silicon Valley Technology Forum.
You must know that at the age of 24, it is very likely that he is still studying for undergraduate, and better may be for graduate school, but Li Zhen has become a doctoral graduate of the world's top universities, and he also has multiple identities.
Refused to return to China and stayed in the United States to work
After graduation, the excellent Li Zhen became the object of everyone's recruitment, and the major high-tech companies in the United States threw an olive branch like Li Zhen, and the annual salary and treatment offered were also unprecedentedly generous.
Of course, as a Chinese, the motherland still expects Li Zhen to return to build the motherland after learning something, and at that time China also needed high-tech talents like Li Zhen, and in the face of the olive branch of the motherland, Li Zhen refused.
He chose to stay in the United States to work, and went to work in many Silicon Valleys, knowing that Silicon Valley is a high-tech industrial park in the United States, where many advanced high-tech technologies are gathered.
In the face of Li Zhen's choice, everyone felt very cold, after all, he was the pillar of the motherland, but he also respected Li Zhen's freedom of choice, but at this time, Li Zhen's Bole in Tsinghua - Yang Zhenning, firmly believed that Li Zhen was only in the United States for a while, and he would return to the motherland and serve the country.
Once he returned to China, he said that the reason for studying in the United States was moving
In 2018, China has made progress in both science and technology and economy, but integrated circuits are a short board that hinders China's development, and it is frequently "stuck" by the United States.
After returning to China, he also said that in fact, staying in the United States after graduation was also a long-term consideration, when China has always had shortcomings in the field of high-end science and technology.
After years of experience, he finally returned to the motherland and used what he learned to serve the country, he said that his teacher, his roots in China, he will not forget, he will not forget Yang Zhenning's age of more than 90 years, still on the podium of Tsinghua University, shining.
After returning to China, Li Zhen founded Baker Microelectronics Co., Ltd. in Jiangsu, specializing in integrated circuit research, paving the way for the development of China's integrated circuits.
Over the years, he is still leading his team, step by step in the field of integrated circuits in China, so that integrated circuits take root in China, grow into towering trees, is the past years Li Zhen company's research in related technologies has been in the forefront of the world, and has made great contributions to the research and development of chips in the mainland.
Now 38-year-old Li Zhen is leading his team to move forward step by step and shine for the construction of the motherland, and everyone understands his decision to stay in the United States many years ago.
epilogue
A young genius, and with Bole's help, Li is really lucky, and at the same time he is also positive, even if he does not return to China immediately after completing his studies, but he has a Chinese heart, he knows what he is doing.
When the motherland faced difficulties, he did not hesitate to choose to return to China and expand the territory for the development of the motherland.
