I know that there is a question: When you mention Mr. Lady, who is the first thing that comes to your mind? Among them, the highest answer is "Yang Chen". The title of female husband arose during the Republic of China period. Ladies who are of high moral standing, talent and knowledge, and who have made outstanding contributions to the country are called "sir" as a sign of respect
Among the female gentlemen in history, there are mr. Song Qingling, Mr. Yang Dai, Mr. Bingxin, Mr. Zhang Ailing, Mr. Xu Guangping, Mr. Lin Huiyin, etc., but there are not many people who are familiar with Mr. Li Pei.
Mr. Li Pei is a famous Chinese linguist, known as "the most beautiful rose of the Chinese Academy of Sciences", "the bright light of Zhongguancun", "the mother of Chinese applied linguistics", and has long served as an English professor at the University of Science and Technology of China and the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. In addition, she also has an important identity, she is the wife of Mr. Guo Yonghuai, the founder of the "two bombs and one star".
Today we will recall that Mr. Li Pei deserves to be remembered for a lifetime.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="10" > the calmness of this life stems from the perseverance of youth</h1>
Mr. Li Pei's ancestral home is Jiangsu, and his original name is Li Peizhen. Born in 1918 in a bookish family in Beiping, he has lived in a rich family environment since childhood, his father Li Baoling is a coal mine engineer in Kailuan, and his early study experience at the University of Birmingham in the United Kingdom has made him pay special attention to the education of his children. Among the five children, Mr. Li Pei is the eldest daughter, and it can be seen from the photos that no matter which era, Mr. Li Pei is full of an elegant temperament that comes from the bones.
Mr. Li Pei has had an independent, fighting and strong character since she was a child, and with the support of her mother, her struggle to learn has been won. In September 1936, she was admitted to the Department of Economics of Peking University, and she took it upon herself to remove the cheesy "Zhen" character of "Li Peizhen" and changed it to "Li Peizhen" and began a new life.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Li Pei was forced to suspend classes at home, and she was bent on going out to learn and see the outside world. In 1938, she and two other girls went to great lengths to enter the Southwest United University in Yunnan. Mr. Li Pei persevered in her studies, and the family saw that this eldest daughter was a material to be made and began to support her studies. In 1947, Li Pei went to cornell university to study business administration at the School of Industrial and Labor Relations.
There she met her lifelong partner, Guo Yonghuai.
Mr. Li Pei's life has experienced the ebb and flow, and the years have not only carved the vicissitudes on Mr. Li's face, but also carved calmly in her heart, truly interpreting the spirit of "the benevolent are not worried, the knowers are not confused, and the brave are not afraid".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="25" > the calm of that moment stems from the depth of love</h1>
"Life is an eternal heavy effort." Mr. Yan Jiyi, an old friend of Li Pei and a colleague of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, used this famous quote by Milan Kundera to describe Mr. Li Pei.
On December 4, 1968, when the news of her husband Guo Yonghuai's sacrifice reached Mr. Li Pei, she stood on the balcony for several hours without speaking, saying that she would stay together for a lifetime, but you went before me, and no one could feel her pain in her heart. After a sleepless night, she lay on the bed with almost no movement, and occasionally let out a soft sigh, restrained to the point of heartache.
Because of his experience in the United States, Mr. Li Pei was suspected of being a spy and subjected to severe political censorship. At Guo Yonghuai's memorial service, Mr. Li Pei sat alone on a bench. In the circumstances of the time, no one dared to sit next to her husband, and no one had the courage to say a word of comfort to her.
Twenty-two days after Guo Yonghuai's departure, China's first thermonuclear missile test was successful, a news that was a great relief for Li Pei at the time.
Later, Mr. Li Pei invited Guo Yonghuai's ashes out of the hierarchical Babaoshan Martyrs Cemetery and buried them under the Sculpture of Guo Yonghuai in the Institute of Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. At the same time, Li Pei also placed part of the ashes of the guard Mou Fangdong, who died with him, under the sculpture.
She said very calmly at that time: "Xiao Mu also sacrificed to follow him." So she arranged Xiao Mu and Guo Yonghuai to be together forever.
Milan Kundera said: "No matter what difficulties are encountered, one has to go on, and one should go on with a positive attitude, to overcome it, not to let it overcome itself." ”
Mr. Li Pei has faced all the storms in his life and treated them with a positive and peaceful attitude, without any sorrow or complaints. You can go with confidence, your ambition is for me to complete for you.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="43" > the tenacity of this life stems from the rich spiritual world</h1>
Mr. Li Pei passed away on 12 January 2017. He lived in the earth-shaking era of overthrowing the feudal dynasty, the democratic revolution, the construction of a new China, and the rapid development of modern China in the past hundred years. She also experienced warlord wars, Japanese aggression, national poverty, and the Cultural Revolution.
But no matter how hard it is, Mr. Li Pei has been working hard in his field, and this life has shown an incomparably tough and respectable noble style.
In the small living room of her family, the gray cloth sofa with some crooked legs has endured the various sizes of various large figures of different ages in 60 years. Qian Xuesen, Qian Sanqiang, Zhou Peiyuan, Bai Chunli, Zhu Qingshi, Rao Yi, Shi Yigong... They were all guests of that couch. But sometimes more people come, and no matter how big the officials are, they all have to sit on the pony.
She has been an enemy of time all her life. He is in his 70s studying computers, and he is still teaching doctoral students at the age of nearly 80. No one can count how many of the old scientists of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are her students. In academic circles, bring her something from Hong Kong, just mention "Mr. Li Pei of Zhongguancun", she can receive it. The number of her "postmen" and the level is amazing.
Two years after Guo Yonghuai left, her teenage daughter went to Inner Mongolia to go to the countryside as a zhiqing, and Li Pei went to Hefei University of Science and Technology to continue to be examined and reformed through labor. In the 1990s, her only daughter, Guo Qin, also died of illness. No one saw Mr. Li Pei, who was nearly eighty years old at the time, shed tears. The old man silently collected the blinking dolls that his daughter played with when she was a child. A few days later, as usual, she carried the tape recorder to the Doctoral Students of the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to take An English class, but her voice was hoarse.
In the decades of loneliness, Li Pei never mentioned the death of his lover and children to others, not about his own pain. She has experienced countless storms in her life, all of which are regarded as floating clouds. It is shown to forget one's own misfortune with a broad mind and create happiness for others. She once said, "I don't have time to be alone, I have so much to do every day." ”
On September 18, 1999, Mr. Li Pei was invited to the Great Hall of the People, and the state awarded 23 scientists the "Two Bombs and One Star" Meritorious Medal, of which Mr. Guo Yonghuai was the only martyr among the 23 "Two Bombs and One Star" founding fathers. Four years later, Mr. Li Pei donated the medal with a diameter of 8 centimeters, cast in 99.8% pure gold and weighing 515 grams, to the University of Science and Technology of China. At the same time, the 600,000 yuan saved will be given to the Institute of Mechanics and 300,000 each from the University of Science and Technology of China.
There is no donation ceremony, just like dealing with a water bill and electricity bill. In July 2018, the International Minor Planet Center permanently named the asteroid with the 212797 number "Li Peixing" permanently.
In the face of a bad fate, Mr. Li Pei always showed calm and calm. The kind of tenacious strength in Mr. Li's bones, in the face of the chaos and noise of the outside world, calm and calm, is the so-called "tenacity of thousands of grinding blows, Ren'er southeast and northwest winds." "A spoonful of food and a scoop of drink, in the dark alley, people are overwhelmed by their worries, and they will not change their happiness", this phrase describes the incomparably rich people in the spiritual world. The tenacity of mr. Husband in this life stems from her noble soul, and she is a well-deserved spiritual nobleman.
Mr. Li Pei used her life to explain what patriotism is, what is responsibility, and what is great love. She is the real goddess, who should be admired by the whole people, should be respected by the whole society, and should be praised by the highest. We admire Tu Youyou, and while remembering Yang Dai, we really can't forget her.
