Hua, the world's first foreign academician of the American Academy of Sciences, what kind of person is he?

Jintan County, Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province has such a grocery store. There are no drinks, snacks, tobacco and alcohol in it. This grocery store only sells one thing, that is math.

This is the answer of the boy sitting at the counter, burying his head in a book, which is also the reason why he will make such great achievements in the field of mathematics in the future. This boy is the father of modern mathematics in China in the future-Hua.

Xiong Haizi, who was born in a laundry list, didn't get a primary school diploma.

19 10, Hua was born in a small grocery store in Jintan County, Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province. As soon as he was born, he was put into a laundry list by his father according to local customs.

Then cover a laundry list. The moral of this is to help children overcome disasters and live to 100 years old. It is for this reason that his father named it "Luo Geng".

Perhaps genius is different from ordinary people since childhood, just as Einstein was a "silly boy" in the eyes of ordinary people, and Hua was also a "Xiong Haizi" in the eyes of his classmates and teachers when he was a child.

10 years old, he followed the so-called "living bodhisattva" at the temple fair for several miles in the middle of the night, all the way to the temple in the mountain.

I'm glad to go home and tell my family that I don't have to kowtow to them anymore when I see their makeup removed.

By this time, however, he had been missing all day, and when he got home, he saw his mother and sister crying.

At the same time, when Hua was a child, he didn't like reading as much as many children do now, so he didn't even get a primary school diploma, but only got a certificate of completion.

However, Hua, who doesn't like studying, finally went to junior high school. He did this only to avoid helping his father's grocery store.

Praise and interest are the best teachers for children.

In the first year in China, everything has changed dramatically. Hua, who has just entered junior high school, continues the old habit of "Xiong Haizi". He didn't listen in class and his homework was perfunctory. The teacher criticized him many times, but he ignored it and went his own way.

Until one math class, the teacher asked a question, and the whole class was still thinking about the answer. Only Hua stood up and said the correct answer.

Hua also experienced the joy of being praised for the first time, so from that day on, Hua began to study mathematics crazily and became interested.

Although Hua became interested in studying mathematics, due to limited family conditions, he had to drop out of school and help his father run the grocery store at home.

It's just that when he was helping, his attention was focused on the borrowed math book, which caused many ironic jokes.

Once, a guest came to buy cotton thread and asked how much China should pay. When Hua was immersed in a math problem, he blurted out, "853729".

The guest was shocked by this number and thought he had heard it wrong, so he confirmed it to China again. Hua still replied without looking up, "853729", and the guests were so scared that they threw down their things and ran away.

Replace the disabled body with a sound mind and achieve a great man in mathematics.

Fate is a cruel thing, and China has a deep understanding.

At 19, Hua's mother died. However, it never rains alone. Hua also has typhoid fever. Although he narrowly escaped, his left leg was permanently disabled.

Fortunately, Hua, who is optimistic by nature, didn't take these things to heart. Since his body is not sound, he should replace his disabled body with a sound mind.

He began to devote himself wholeheartedly to the world of mathematics, and submitted all kinds of research to magazines crazily. One submission completely changed his fate.

1930 published an article that shocked the whole mathematical world, and spent this little-known name to become famous in the mathematical world. Xiong Qing, head of the Department of Mathematics of Tsinghua University, was eager for success, and made an exception to hire Hua, who only had a junior high school diploma, as an assistant in the library of the Department of Mathematics of Tsinghua University.

Hua also seized this opportunity to study sleepless nights every day. In order to know the original works of mathematics abroad, he studies all kinds of foreign languages crazily, and studies for more than ten hours every day. Even Qian Weichang, who was studying in Tsinghua at that time, said that Hua was the most diligent person in Tsinghua at that time.

Because of Hua's outstanding talent in mathematics, at the age of 23, he was promoted to the teaching assistant of Tsinghua University Mathematics Department again. He limped onto the platform and published dozens of academic papers during his teaching, which enjoyed a good reputation at home and abroad.

Later, I was recommended to go to Cambridge Mathematics Department for further study. At that time, Hardy, head of the Department of Mathematics at Cambridge University, promised China that he could get a doctorate in just two years. However, Hua, who only has a junior high school diploma, refused the kindness of the math master because he came here only to study, not for a degree.

Later, gunfire began to resound through the land of China, and Hua resolutely chose to return to China to stand with the people of the motherland. At the same time, Hua was hired as a professor by Tsinghua University, Peking University and Nankai University, and went to Kunming with the school.

During his stay in Kunming, Hua lit candles and sat in a bomb shelter. Accompanied by the constant explosion outside, he completed his first mathematical work, The Theory of Overlapping Primes.

After the war, Hua was invited to teach in the United States and cured his lameness. The United States also provided him with everything, such as a house, a car, tickets, and even the position of the world's first foreign academician of the American Academy of Sciences.

However, after receiving the news of the founding of New China, Hua resolutely chose to give up all this and return to the embrace of the motherland.

Hua wrote an "open letter to all students studying in China". There is a sentence in the letter: "Liangyuan is good, but it is not the hometown where you have lived for a long time. Come back!" This sentence also moved as many as 2,290 international students to return to their motherland and join in the construction of new China.

In the following days, Hua began to devote himself to the construction of the motherland. He not only turned from studying pure mathematics to studying applied mathematics, but also trained a large number of outstanding mathematicians, including Chen Jingrun and Wang Yuan.

Hua once said, "I hope to work to death", and he did it. 1985, while giving a speech at the University of Tokyo, Hua suffered a sudden myocardial infarction. However, he managed to finish his speech in more than an hour, and then he sat back in his wheelchair and lost consciousness. Hua died that night.

Hua is a treasure of mathematics in China and even the world, and he is also a great China man. He gave up fame and fortune for his motherland and risked his life. His patriotism, love and persistence in his career deserve our respect and study.
