Su Buqing was born in Wenzhou, the "hometown of mathematicians", and his family was poor when he was a child.
Parents live by farming, but they understand the principle that "knowledge changes destiny" and prefer to eat chaff vegetables themselves to provide for their children's schooling.
Because of her family situation and the sincere teachings of her teachers, Su Buqing knows the importance of learning and the weight of the burden on her body.
When he was a teenager, Su Buqing made a vow of "reading without forgetting to save the country, and saving the country without forgetting to read", and devoted himself to learning, as one day for twenty years.
At the age of 17, Su Buqing graduated from junior high school with excellent results, and Mr. Hong, the former principal of the middle school, expressed his willingness to sponsor him to study in Japan, and Su Buqing naturally accepted it gladly.
He spent a month studying Japanese, and in February 1920 he successfully passed the entrance examination of the Tokyo Higher Technical School and became a student in the electrical engineering department of the school.
After years of unremitting study, Su Buqing's achievements in mathematics are very amazing, and he has the title of "King of Mathematics". He studied and taught at the same time, and cultivated a large number of outstanding mathematical talents for the country.
Mr. Su Buqing is a leader in the field of mathematical research at home and abroad, and is deeply respected and loved by peers at home and abroad and international friends.
Moreover, he kept a low profile all his life, devoted all his energy to teaching and educating people and scientific research, and was also a well-deserved pillar of the country.
In addition to her academic achievements, Su Buqing's Japanese wife, Yonako Matsumoto, has also attracted much attention. But his wife was one of the first Japanese to have Chinese nationality, had eight children with Su Buqing, and spent her life working for her husband and children.
Su Buqing was also grateful for his wife's efforts, and once said in public: It is not an exaggeration to say that half of my knowledge and achievements were given by my wife.
Perhaps under the influence of scholars in his hometown, Su Buqing's parents, although illiterate, firmly let their son embark on the road of learning. Su Buqing's mathematical path was not chosen at the beginning, in his eyes, mathematics is too simple and not challenging.
The preference for mathematics stemmed from a math class in the third year of junior high school, and there was a teacher yang in the school who studied in Japan and returned to teach.
The first lesson he gave to the students was the situation at home and abroad at that time and the importance of mathematics in the development of science, which made Su Buqing and his classmates feel enthusiastic and strengthened his belief in learning mathematics well.
This class really changed Su Buqing's attitude towards mathematics, and also gave him a deeper understanding of learning, taking "reading does not forget to save the country, save the country and do not forget to read" as the motto.
In addition to completing his daily schoolwork, using all possible time to do math problems became his greatest pleasure. Because his grades were always among the best in junior high school, After graduation, Su Buqing was sponsored to study in Japan, and during his studies in Japan, his grades were always among the best.
After graduating from industrial school, he was admitted to the Department of Mathematics at Northeastern Imperial University with first place. The school's mathematics department is of a high standard.
Su Buqing soon realized his shortcomings and eagerly learned new knowledge. During his time at Imperial College, he was the first to finish year after year and was a well-known figure in the school.
During his college years, Su Buqing not only excelled in his studies, but also engaged in subject research, and such excellent students naturally attracted much attention.
His future wife, Yonako Matsumoto, is also a celebrity at Imperial University, and his father, Professor Matsumoto, is Su Buqing's teacher, and he is also a goddess in the hearts of many boys.
Later, the two met at a school event, male and female, and the two quickly sparked love. The love between the two has been blessed by many people, and some people have obstructed from it, believing that Su Buqing's family is not good, and he is Chinese, and he is not worthy of rice.
Of course, Yonako didn't care, but Su Buqing's self-esteem was extremely strong, and he couldn't stand the hostility and gossip of those people. In order to help Yonako get rid of the entanglement and let himself study with peace of mind, the two discussed and decided to get married as soon as possible.
Although Professor Matsumoto loves Su Buqing, he is still reluctant to marry his precious daughter to him.
After all, every father-in-law will feel that no man is worthy of his precious daughter, plus the two have different nationalities, afraid that their daughter will be wronged in the future. With Yonako's persistence and the support of her mother, the two were happily married.
After marriage, in order to take care of the family, Yonako gave up her hobby and willingly became the woman behind Su Buqing. Not only the happiness of the family, Su Buqing's achievements in the field of mathematics are also obvious to all, and Northeastern University also threw an olive branch to him.
However, returning to Hangzhou with his senior Chen Jiangong to build a first-class mathematics department in China was his first consideration after all, which put Su Buqing, who was serious about righteousness, into a dilemma.
His guilt for Yonako, coupled with the Matsumoto family's retention of him, bothered him. Yonako saw her husband's entanglement and after asking why, she encouraged Su Buqing to return to her motherland. He also said that since he married him, he would love China with him and would never leave him.
With the support of his wife, Su Buqing took care of everything with confidence and prepared to return to Hangzhou. Due to the immature conditions, he could only return to Japan alone, and his wife and children remained in Japan.
As it turned out, he was right, when conditions at Zhejiang University were so bad that he didn't get a salary for four months and had to rely on his brother's help to make ends meet.
It doesn't matter if he becomes a family and suffers alone, in order to take care of his wife and raise children, he considers returning to his wife.
At that time, Shao Peizi, the president of Zhejiang University, learned about it and came to Su Buqing's residence overnight to keep him. If it were not for the compulsion, Su Buqing would not have made this decision.
Under the retention of Shao Peizi, he still decided to stay in the motherland. A few days later, he received 1200 pieces of ocean raised by Shao Peizi, and when he waited for the summer vacation, he immediately brought his wife and daughter to China, and since then, the family has been in trouble and hardship, and has walked hand in hand for many years.
The small family and small love converge into the great love of the family and the country, su Buqing understands the meaning of the family to him, and knows more deeply that the country needs him. His wife's profound righteousness has become his most solid backing, and he can go further and faster without worries behind him.
After marriage, Yonako put her hobbies on the shelf in order to take care of her husband and children wholeheartedly. In China, as soon as life had settled down, Japan launched an all-out war of aggression against China, putting countless Chinese in the depths of the waters, and Su Buqing and Yonako were of course also deeply affected.
Although she is Japanese, Yonako also deeply resents this behavior in Japan, and when Japanese officials find her to win her over, they always refuse verbally, indicating that she is completely accustomed to the life of Chinese and eating Chinese food.
Due to the indiscriminate bombardment of the Japanese, the situation of Zhejiang University became very dangerous, and in order to protect the safety of teachers and students, after consultation with the school leaders, they were ready to relocate.
Su Buqing's family naturally moved with the school, and at this time, they learned that Professor Matsumoto was critically ill, and Su Buqing was very worried.
However, considering his political stance, he could not accompany Yonako to Visit Japan. Yonako thought about it for a moment and decided to hold back her grief and follow her husband forever.
Without that terrible war, Yonako would not have been unable to visit her critically ill father, nor would she have been able to return to her twilight hometown after 43 years.
After the founding of New China, the Su family had eight children, and in order to save money, Yonako never bought herself a new dress.
In 1953, Matsumoto, along with the first batch of foreigners who applied for naturalization in China, was allowed to become a Chinese citizen and officially changed her name to Su Matsumoto. Due to limited financial conditions, she could not return to her hometown to visit, but her life was very stable.
Later, because of excessive work and advanced age, Yonako gradually lost strength, and Su Buqing considered that his wife had not returned to her hometown when she came to China, so she arranged a time to return to China with her wife. Returning to her hometown after 43 years excites Yonako, and she has no regrets since.
In 1982, Yonako, who had been tired for many years, fell ill, and visiting his wife in the hospital every day became an important part of Su Buqing's itinerary, and the two recalled the past together and chatted about the current situation of the children, and the scene was very warm. In the past, it was Yonako who accompanied Su Buqing, but now he is accompanied by Yonako.
In this relationship, there is no doubt that Yonako is the one who gives the most, but she has no complaints. The feelings that have been through hardships are the most moving. She gave her life but never complained, and before she died, she comforted her husband to live well.
The death of his wife also made Su Buqing feel sadness that he had never felt before, he said: "It is no exaggeration to say that half of my learning and achievements were given by my wife. Since then, he has been accompanied by a photo of his wife and continues to walk on the road of teaching and educating people and scientific research.
A person's achievements are affected by many factors, if there is no teacher Yang's solution, Su Buqing can not understand the importance of mathematics.
Without President Hong's sponsorship, Su Buqing would not have been able to access more advanced mathematical research work; without the intimate care of his wife Matsumoto, he would not have been able to devote all his energy to scientific research and teaching.
Mr. Su Buqing is a low-key person, knows how to be grateful, and also knows the truth that knowledge can truly save the country, so he can achieve real success.
For Su Buqing, most people may not know much, but the mathematical community has the saying of "South Jiangsu And Northern China", and Beihua is the mathematician Hua Luogeng, which is enough to show the importance of Su Buqing in the mathematical community.
During the war years, the fact that his wife was Japanese also brought some trouble to Su Buqing, but Matsumoto's attitude was always firm, she married Chinese, and would always follow her husband. Even when Matsumoto's father was critically ill, he did not return home once.
In fact, love has nothing to do with nationality, they have gone through hardships, encouraged each other, and accompanied each other for nearly 60 years. There is no better love than that all willingness is worth it, and all giving is reciprocated.
