When it comes to the word "star", we often unconsciously associate it with artists in the entertainment industry, as for the stars in the scientific community, I don't know how much you know! Shi Yigong is undoubtedly one of them, he is the world's top scientist in the field of structural biology, served as a tenured professor of molecular biology at Princeton University in the United States, in 2006, he gave up everything in the United States, resolutely chose to return to the motherland, and said that he would use the second half of his life to do his duty for the motherland and society.
In 2018, Shi Yigong once again aroused a strong response from the society because of the establishment of Westlake University, it is worth mentioning that the school is the first private university organized by social forces in mainland China, and it is also a new type of research university supported by the state, committed to cultivating innovative compound talents needed for the future development of the country.
Some netizens commented: "Shi Yigong can be called the contemporary Qian Xuesen, the contemporary Deng Jiaxian, a scientist full of family and country feelings, he never goes with the flow, nor does he fall into the interest chain group, and always puts scientific research and education in the first creed of the national scientist in life!" Strive to promote China's scientific research forward, and hope that Westlake University can become a world-class university in the future! ”
Shi Yigong was born on May 5, 1967 in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, and is 57 years old this year. Shi Ping is a well-known old birthday star in the mainland, he is a native of Chuxiong Dayao in Yunnan, born on November 1, 1911, when he was born, the mainland was still in the rule of the Qing government, for three years of Xuantong.
Shi Ping is 114 years old this year, the longest-lived man in mainland China and even in the whole of Asia, and he has become the world's second-oldest man since April this year. The world's longest-lived male from Brazil, named Josias de Oliveira, was born in October 1911, only eleven days older than Shi Ping.
In 1931, at the age of 20, Shi Ping was admitted to the Agricultural College of Zhejiang University, and then served as the chairman of the school's student anti-Japanese association.
In 1941, Shi Ping was directly involved in the ranks of the New Fourth Army, becoming a member of the New Fourth Army, after the founding of New China, he successively served as the Secretary of the Party Committee of Beijing Agricultural University, the Deputy Director of the Agricultural Office of the East China Bureau, the Secretary of the Party Committee of East China Normal University, and the Deputy Secretary of the Party Group of the Communist Party of China in Shanghai.
Shi Yigong mentioned in his article "Entertaining Grandpa in the United States" that when he made the decision to return to China, everyone around him basically expressed opposition, and his grandfather Shi Ping said to him meaningfully: "You have graduated with a doctorate in 1995 and have lived in the United States for more than ten years, and it is time to come back and build the motherland." ”
Shi Ping's body has always been very tough, even after the age of 110, his thinking is still very clear, but unfortunately, at the end of 2022, due to the full liberalization of epidemic prevention and control, he was unfortunately infected, and it was also from that time that his hearing was seriously impaired, and his memory became more and more blurred, and even many acquaintances around him could not recognize him.
Shi Yigong's father is Shi Huailin, born in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province on January 5, 1935, and graduated from Harbin Institute of Technology; His mother's name is Jiang Xiaoying, born in Danyang, Jiangsu Province in 1934, graduated from Beijing Institute of Mining and Technology, is a retired teacher of Henan Institute of Engineering, 90 years old this year, but the spirit is still very strong.
On September 21, 1987, 52-year-old Shi Huailin was hit by a tired taxi on the bicycle lane, and finally left this world due to ineffective rescue. Some netizens sighed: "Grandpa is a world-renowned old birthday star, but my father died young, I don't know how Shi Yigong's heart feels!" Maybe I can only sigh that providence has made people. ”
But then again, if your children and grandchildren are happy and healthy, everyone wants to live a long life, and if you have to suffer from the blows of white-haired people sending black-haired people, etc., longevity is not necessarily a good thing.
