Handsome Chinese Academician院士，颜值爆表
At the foot of Huilong Mountain in Huanggang County, Hubei Province, there is a small village called Zhangjiawan. At the entrance of the village, a huge rock suddenly appeared at the entrance of the village.
Zhangjiawan is full of hills and ponds, and the stone is said to weigh more than tens of tons, which is beyond the reach of manpower. Therefore, the villagers passed word of mouth, saying that in a certain year and a certain month, "it fell from the sky".
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, a child named "Li Zhongkui" was born in this village. Coincidentally, later, he specialized in stone research.
When Li Zhongkui is mentioned, everyone may be at a loss. His other name is Li Siguang. I am afraid that no one knows these three words.
● Young Li Siguang, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, is imposing
But it is very possible that our understanding of Li Siguang is limited to the word "geologist". These four words are not enough to describe his romantic, beautiful and magnificent life.
Li Siguang is a super genius, but this genius accidentally made a big mistake before going to school. Because of this mistake, he got the name "Li Siguang".
At that time, Li Zhongkui was still called Li Zhongkui. When he was 14 years old, he walked 80 kilometers alone from his hometown of Huanggang to Wuchang—just to study.
When filling out the elementary school registration form, he filled in "fourteen" in the "name" column-that is actually his age. At that time, an application form was worth one yuan, and Li Zhongkui couldn't afford the "huge sum". In desperation, he used his brains and made some tricks on "Fourteen", changing his name to "Li Siguang".
The "揆" in "Zhong Kui" means to be in charge of PepsiCo; the "light" in "Four Lights" has the connotation of "light covered by four expressions". With such a name change, the realm has undoubtedly been improved several times.
After studying in the primary school for one year, Li Siguang boarded a cruise ship to Japan the following year. ——He won a place to study abroad in Toyo.
● Young Li Siguang
The "Hubei No. 2 Higher Primary School" where Li Siguang is located has no less than a few hundred students, but how many targets are there for going to Japan? There is only one area.
When he arrived in Tokyo, Japan, Li Siguang first entered "Hongwen Academy" to study. It was a basic school, and he studied basic courses such as Japanese, mathematics, physics and chemistry in Hongwen.
During his stay in Hongwen, Li Siguang got acquainted with Song Jiaoren, the later "father of Chinese constitutionalism". Later, through the recommendation of Song and others, he met the father of the country, Mr. Sun Yat-sen, with his own eyes.
At that time, it was still in the initial stage of the revolutionary cause. Inspired by Sun Yat-sen, Li Siguang participated in the preparatory meeting of the Chinese League, the predecessor of the "KMT", as a mere student at the age of 16.
But Mr. Sun didn't want him to devote himself to Feng Di. He encouraged Li Siguang with eight words: study hard and serve the country.
Li Siguang obeyed the words of the father of the country. After graduating from "Hongbunkan", he successfully passed the shipbuilding major of Osaka Higher Industrial School in Japan. A total of 19 students were enrolled in this major that year, and Li Siguang was the only Chinese.
Not long after he returned to China, the world suddenly changed. The Manchu Qing Dynasty fell, and the Republic of China was proclaimed. In order to resume production as soon as possible, the Hubei military government organized the establishment of the Ministry of Industry, and Li Siguang was elected as the minister. That year, he was only 23 years old.
Everything seems to be moving in a good direction. However, not long after the victory of the Revolution of 1911, the fruits were stolen by Yuan Shikai. Li Siguang did not hesitate, he resolutely chose to resign.
The only thing he loves is also the truth of hatred. After thinking twice, he decided to leave the motherland temporarily, study abroad, and take the road of "saving the country through science". Before studying abroad, Li Siguang also made a plan, and he would take "geology" as his research direction in the future.
Later, in the field of geology where foreigners occupy absolute authority, Li Siguang made a name for himself abruptly, and established a sect. He became famous all over the world as a "geologist".
Li Siguang proposed the "Identification Method of Flyidae", which proved the existence of Quaternary glaciers in China and created geomechanics...
In addition to these "illusory" academic achievements, he is also outstanding in the field of visible reality. Li Siguang firmly believes that there is oil in China. Under the guidance of his theory and others, we have actively explored and gradually removed the title of "oil-poor country"; he predicted that there is uranium ore in the Lingnan area. Because of uranium, we have created an atomic bomb...
Because of these achievements, although Li Siguang is free from power, he has always been valued at the highest standard from beginning to end.
In 1925, Sun Yat-sen, the father of the nation, passed away. The national government selected 6 people to carry the coffin for Mr. Li Siguang, who ranked first.
In order to show that he attaches great importance to academics, Generalissimo Chiang has hosted countless banquets for celebrities in the scientific and technological circles, and his right-hand seat is always vacant. It turned out that it was for Li Siguang.
After the founding of New China, our leaders are also willing to meet Li Siguang. Those leaders who can affect the destiny of the country with every gesture are willing to be primary school students in front of Li Siguang, listening to him talk and demonstrating our country's resources.
● Chairman Mao received Li Siguang
There are countless but invisible resources in the underground of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. They seem to be very clear in Li Siguang's eyes.
Observing Li Siguang from the perspective of God, we can easily draw a conclusion: he is too busy.
It is said that because he has been surveying the field all year round, in order to save time and facilitate measurement, he decided to use his own step length instead of a ruler. Sure enough, every step Li Siguang took afterwards was astonishingly equal in length, no more, no less, just 0.85 meters.
● Li Siguang during geological survey (middle)
Presumably, he must be a cold and rigorous person.
it's not true.
Li Siguang is about 1.75 meters tall. He was considered tall in southern China at that time.
At the age of 24, he resigned as a minister and traveled across the ocean to study in England. At the beginning of 1920, during his sixth year in Europe, he was bored, and wrote a violin piece spontaneously on a piece of staff paper with 8 and 12 lines.
After running for three years with nothing but bones, I believe that some people have difficulty in traveling in the world. These two lines of poems are a portrayal of Li Siguang's mood back then. Therefore, he named the piece "Difficult to Journey".
It is also the first violin piece in Chinese history.
Because of Li Siguang's talent, many women adore him no matter at home or abroad, just like what is read in the "Book of Songs": If you think of a gentleman, you will warm him like jade; in his wooden house, you will disturb my heart.
But unlike other great Confucian scholars in the Republic of China, Li Siguang had almost no "lace news", and he did not have a "wife with little feet" in his hometown. Until his 30s, he was still alone.
In 1920, Li Siguang returned to China to teach because of Cai Yuanpei's appointment, and he became the founder of Peking University's geology discipline. But what is greater than academic achievements is that during his stay in Peking, Li Siguang, who had passed his thirties, met a beautiful love.
The girl's name is Xu Shubin, who was born in a famous family. She was a music teacher in the middle school attached to Beijing Normal University. Relying on art to set the stage, the two gradually came together.
● Screenshot of the movie "Li Siguang"
Xu Shubin is good at the piano, and Li Siguang likes the violin. They often play in harmony with the strings.
The couple fell in love quickly and got married quickly. One year after their marriage, their only daughter Li Lin was born.
● Wedding photo of Li Siguang and Xu Shubin
Whether it is family status or gender ratio, Li Siguang has no advantage at all. The women in their family have the final say, and the Li family has thus become a typical "feminist society."
Xu Shubin naturally loves her husband deeply, but she is annoyed that her husband is with the stone all day long and neglects his family. Xu Shubin "hates" science, and she wants her daughter to learn to play the piano so that she can inherit her mantle in the future.
When Li Lin was 6 years old, she had a sore on the finger of her left hand. After the injury recovered, her left index finger was inexplicably shortened. In other words, it is almost impossible for her to become a pianist.
● Li Siguang and his daughter Li Lin
In the end, Li Lin embarked on the path of a scientist.
Also a "genius seedling". She has been traveling with her family since she was a child, and has studied in London, Beijing, Shanghai, and Guilin. Not only did Li Lin not fail in her homework, but she completed the three-year high school courses by herself in the first year of her sophomore year.
Li Lin skipped a grade at the age of 16 and was successfully admitted to Guiyang Medical College. At that time, the outside world was in turmoil, and Xu Shubin didn't want his only daughter to stay away from him. However, the nearby Guangxi University did not have a medical department at that time.
Li Siguang agrees with his wife's proposition. At the same time, he also feels that it is not suitable for girls to run around and engage in geology. After thinking for a long time, Li Siguang carefully selected a "major for girls" for Li Lin.
In 1939, Li Lin changed her studies to the Mechanical Department, and she became the only girl in the Mechanical Department of Guangxi University.
Li Siguang's daughter is his daughter at first glance, and the father and daughter have too much in common. For example, both father and daughter changed their names by themselves at the age of 14 (Li Lin's original name was Li Xizhi);
Li Lin went to England to study. Before choosing a major, she asked her father for advice. Li Siguang originally suggested to his daughter to focus on "Elasticity", but the secretary accidentally typed a letter wrongly when sending the letter, and her research direction became "Plasticity".
Li Lin thought it was her father's opinion, and by accident, she began to get involved in the research of "physical metallurgy".
● Li Siguang, his wife Xu Shubin, and daughter Li Lin in the UK
In terms of love, Li Lin is much more "promising" than his father. Before she was 25 years old, she met her "true man". In a foreign country, at a student reunion at Cambridge University, Li Lin and a boy named Zou Chenglu sang "On the Songhua River" together. That's right, through music again, the two young people quickly came together.
Zou Chenglu can also be called a genius. He graduated from Southwest Associated University at the age of 22. In the following year, he was admitted to Cambridge with the first place in the total score of the Boxer Indemnity Public Fund Study Abroad, and directly skipped a grade to study for a doctorate.
● Zou Chenglu when he was young
Two years after Zou Chenglu entered Cambridge, Li Lin also went there. The two have been friends for a long time, and they have only met each other before realizing that they are each other's "the one".
Zou Chenglu has a handsome appearance, with a beautiful face, and his appearance is definitely not inferior to Xiaoxianrou now.
As early as when he was studying for a master's degree in Birmingham, Li Lin had a good impression of him. During his Ph.D. study at Cambridge, Li Lin always asked him about physics; and when Li Lin was busy in the laboratory until midnight, Zou Chenglu would send him delicious supper.
● Li Lin and Zou Chenglu
In 1948, Li Lin and Zou Chenglu got married. On the seaside of Bournemouth, England, accompanied by the singing of the waves, two pairs of young arms were tightly held together.
● Li Siguang and his wife and Zou Chenglu, with Zou Chenglu on the right
Soon, news of the founding of New China came, and the young couple was eager to return home. The day after Li Lin passed her doctoral dissertation defense, she returned to the motherland without stopping. Cambridge University, the top university on the planet, is in infinite embarrassment because no one accepts Li Lin's doctorate.
After returning to the motherland, Li Lin entered the Institute of Atomic Energy and was subordinated to Qian Sanqiang; Zou Chenglu entered the Institute of Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to conduct research on enzymology, which laid the foundation for China's enzymology and respiratory chain research.
● Li Lin at work
After the turmoil ended, Zou Chenglu was the first Chinese scientist to publish a paper in the journal Nature. In addition to his achievements in biochemistry, what is even more admirable is that Zou Chenglu devoted his whole life to defending academic ethics.
In November 2021, the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences discovered an asteroid. With the approval of the "Naming Committee", we named the asteroid "Zou Chenglu Star". From then on, Zou Chenglu's name, as well as his truth-seeking thought, entered the cosmic starry sky, embellished with space stars.
Whether it is Li Siguang, Li Lin or Zou Chenglu, they are all restless people. In those days, someone once commented on Li Siguang and said: "On Mr. Li's schedule, there is no personal leisure time."
Li Lin and his wife also inherited the "hard work" of their elders. Until their octogenarian years, the couple still persisted in their posts, forgetting about their work. They also complained to each other: "He (she), don't mention it, he will get sick when he rests. "
● Zou Chenglu and Li Lin
In recognition of the contributions of Li Siguang's family, the state awarded them the honor of academicians.
As medical scientist Wu Jieping commented: "Li Siguang is an academician, Li Lin is an academician, and Zou Chenglu is an academician. The three members of a family are all academicians. This is the only one in China's scientific and technological circles."
Their patriotism, ambition to strengthen the country, and trip to serve the country are still inspiring future generations.
Academician Hu Hesheng and Academician Gu Chaohao, alumni of Zhejiang University, are a couple who studied under the same master. For more than 50 years, they have shared the same goals and worked together through thick and thin, and they have overcome one problem after another in the field of mathematics they love. In the field of mathematics, Gu Chaohao is considered to be the first person to make important progress in the field of infinite transformation quasigroups after the great mathematician of the 20th century, Eli Cartan; Hu Hesheng is the first and only one in the field of Chinese mathematics. female academicians.
In 2003, when the author participated in a gathering of fellow villagers in Wenzhou, Shanghai, I met Mr. Gu and his wife. Even in their seventies, they still go in and out like young people in love holding hands and relying on each other. Madam is really the "fairy couple" of Shuyuan.
Professor Hu came from a famous family, his father is versatile
Hu Hesheng was born in an artistic family in 1928, originally from Nanjing, Jiangsu. His grandfather, Hu Yanqing, was a traditional Chinese painter who was good at flowers, birds, and animals. He was once a well-known artist in Shanghai along with Wu Changshuo, Wang Yiting, and Cheng Yaosheng. His father, Hu Boxiang, was a painter, photographer, and industrialist. In the 1940s, Hu Boxiang was still engaged in the industry, and served as the chairman of the Shanghai Cosmetics Industry Association.
When Hu Hesheng was in the fifth grade of elementary school, the Japanese army occupied Nanjing, and all the calligraphy, paintings and antiques collected by his grandfather were looted. Hu Hesheng moved to Shanghai with his father and his family.
After the Pacific War, Japanese invaders ran rampant in the Shanghai Concession. At that time, Hu Hesheng lived on Huanlong Road in Shanghai at that time, across the street was the Japanese army's lair. There were 7 brothers and sisters in the Hu family, including 5 girls. Naturally, the family was terrified, and the curtains were drawn day and night. If the country is not strong, the people will be bullied. Since then, Hu Hesheng has been determined to study hard and save the country with science.
Hu Hesheng has been influenced by art since he was a child, and has a strong sense of painting and music. When he was in elementary and middle school, he was excellent in both arts and science. After graduating from middle school, Hu Hesheng was admitted to Shanghai Jiaotong University, where he chose mathematics, known as the "father of natural science", hoping to serve the country with science. By the time I graduated from university, Shanghai had already been liberated. She gave up the opportunity to work as a teaching assistant at Tongji University, hoping to continue her studies. This year, she also received admission notices from Peking University and Zhejiang University. At that time, Professor Su Buqing, the founder of Chinese differential geometry, was teaching at Zhejiang University, so she chose Zhejiang University.
Figure 1 From left to right: Hu Hesheng, Li Daqian, Su Buqing, Gu Chaohao
Marriage began in the library, Mr. Su claimed to be a matchmaker
The "other half" of Hu Hesheng's life, Gu Chaohao, was admitted to the Department of Mathematics of Zhejiang University as early as 1943. In 1948, Professor Su Buqing left Gu Chaohao as a teaching assistant. Two years later, Hu Hesheng, who also loved mathematics, became Su Buqing's graduate student. Su Buqing liked Gu Chaohao very much, and he handed over the "good thing" of managing the library to Gu Chaohao so that he could "look around". As a result, the two young people met in the library of Qiushi Garden of Zhejiang University.
Fifty years later, Gu Chaohao still clearly remembers the scene of meeting Hu Hesheng for the first time: "It was 1950. I met Hu Hesheng in the library of the Department of Mathematics. She said that Mr. Su gave her a paper, and she didn't understand some things. I want me to take a look for her. I said: OK, where is the paper? She said that the paper is in the dormitory. Her dormitory is more than ten minutes away from my office. It was already autumn, but the weather was still hot, and she was angry. Panting and running to get it back, I think this little girl is very good, and she is willing to delve into knowledge. We discussed it together, and she figured out all the content of the thesis."
The common interest in differential geometry brought the hearts of the two young people closer quickly. Gu Chaohao, gentle and elegant, well-trained in ancient prose, can blurt out poems; Hu Hesheng, cheerful and talkative, likes painting and photography. In addition to learning from each other, they also had endless topics to talk about.
After graduating from graduate school, Hu Hesheng also stayed in the school to work. In 1952, when the colleges and departments were adjusted, she and Gu Chaohao both followed Su Buqing to Fudan University.
In 1957, after seven years of "long-distance love running", the love seeds planted in Zhejiang University blossomed and borne fruit in Fudan University.
In November 1996, Mr. Gu Chaohao celebrated his 70th birthday. The 94-year-old Su Buqing smiled and was very excited. He held Gu Chaohao in one arm and Hu Hesheng in the other, and said kindly, "Today I want to bless you two! You two got married I'm still a matchmaker!"
Gu Chaohao, Hu Hesheng and his wife smiled from ear to ear, and there seemed to be a sweet shyness on Hu Hesheng's face.
Studying side by side with foreign countries to pass the note in the "cowshed"
In 1957, newlywed Gu Chaohao bid farewell to his beloved wife and went to Moscow University in the Soviet Union to study hard. Hu Hesheng, who stayed in China, also immersed himself in scientific research. Between them, the only way to express love is through swan geese.
In 1958, the left-leaning trend of denial and criticism of basic research disturbed the mathematics world, and Hu Hesheng was also affected. She became a typical example of "walking the white road". Someone in the school threatened to pull out Hu Hesheng's "white flag". Even when Hu Hesheng proposed to visit relatives in the Soviet Union, some people opposed it. Fortunately, the school leaders resisted the pressure and approved her trip to Moscow.
When Gu Chaohao saw Hu Hesheng at the Moscow railway station, he was taken aback: "Why are you so thin?" She didn't want her husband who was studying hard to share the pressure and bitterness for her. Once settled, the young couple plunged into the library.
In just one month of family leave, she managed to read several academic monographs in English and Russian on general relativity and elastic mechanics. And with the help of Gu Chaohao, he seized an opportunity to have an unforgettable academic talk with Gu Chaohao's mentor Rashevsky.
In 1959, Gu Chaohao returned to his motherland after being exceptionally awarded a Ph.D. in Physical and Mathematical Sciences from Moscow University. From 1960 to 1965, Gu Chaohao entered the academic harvest season.
But unfortunately, when the "Cultural Revolution" came, Su Buqing was labeled as a "reactionary academic authority", and Gu Chaohao was listed as a "revisionist". I endured silently, cleaning toilets, poking sewers, climbing roofs, etc., doing everything, and doing it seriously.
Hu Hesheng was also struggling at home. The "rebels" forced her to expose Gu Chaohao. She was very stubborn: "If I want to talk about Gu Chaohao before liberation, I didn't know him at all. He joined the revolution at the age of 11 and joined the party at the age of 14. It's clearly written in the file, you can check his file!"
At that time, Gu Chaohao was locked in the student dormitory. Hu Hesheng found their caring students and asked the students to pass the note quietly. Soon, the reply slip came, which said: "I have nothing." Seeing the five words written by Gu Chaohao in a hurry, Hu Hesheng felt a little relieved, but his eyes were red.
Soon, the situation gradually eased, and the supervision was relaxed. Hu Hesheng went to see Gu Chaohao whenever he had a chance, to talk and cheer him up.
A loving couple, members of both academic departments
In 1976, the motherland finally began to set things right, and the spring of science came. At this time, Gu Chaohao was already 50 years old. But he soon made new international leading achievements in several research fields of mathematics. In 1980, he was elected as an academician (academic member) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Hu Hesheng is also fruitful in his own research field. In 1991, Hu Hesheng was elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, becoming the first female academician in Chinese mathematics.
In the simple home of Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng, there are two writing desks in one study room, Gu Chaohao's desk faces the sun, and Hu Hesheng's desk wall. The two academicians study side by side here. Usually, the two have their own research areas, but when they cooperate, they often have a tacit understanding and produce results one after another. Here is a story: In June 1974, Nobel Prize winner and physicist Yang Zhenning went to Fudan University to give a report on gauge field theory and suggested joint research, which involved a series of complex modern mathematical problems. To Yang Zhenning's surprise, a few days later, Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng came up with two internationally leading research results. This made Yang Zhenning very happy, and he warmly invited them to study in the United States again and again.
Gu Chaohao said comfortably: "I can tell her about the work I do, and I can tell about the work she does to me. We understand each other, and we can ask each other questions and check each other. This is the greatest joy in life!"
In daily life, Gu Chaohao, Hu Hesheng love to do subtraction: get up at 6:30 every day, cook some rice and boil an egg. Start work on time at 8 o'clock. In the evening, I read the papers of graduate students, which has been like a day for decades.
A reporter wanted to take a photo of the couple, and Hu Hesheng, who loves beauty, immediately cut his hair: "Today I didn't arrange my hair properly, and my clothes were not right." Gu Chaohao said with a smile. He also studied mathematics all his life. The matching of colors and the harmony of styles, his usual clothes are all bought by his wife, and he believes in her taste and beauty.
"Every time I attend an important event, Hu Hesheng has to take care of my 'outfit'. As long as I give her hands this way, she is always very energetic."
Neither of them were physically strong. In the 1990s, Gu Chaohao had two serious illnesses. Once, for almost three or four months, I often woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, and then I couldn't fall asleep until dawn. Thanks to the doctor's careful treatment and Hu Hesheng's care and support, he finally survived.
In the past ten years, Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng have been in poor health, and sometimes they were hospitalized in turn, but they stayed together inseparably. Their wards were decorated like a study room, and when their condition improved a little, they entered their mathematical world together. One was leaning on the hospital bed, the other was sitting on a chair, either reading a book quietly or discussing something in a low voice.
Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng are also happy to let young people share their love stories. In 1992, a newspaper in Anhui tried to issue a trial edition. Zhu Guanghua from the University of Science and Technology of China was invited to write an article entitled "Forty Years of Traveling in Shuyuan and We Are Together in the Same Boat, Deeper Love". Gu Chaohao, Hu Hesheng also specially sent a group photo from Shanghai to accompany the article. There are two lines of words printed on this photo: "A loving couple, members of the Shuangshuang Academy"
When Hu Hesheng was elected as an academician, Gu Chaohao wrote a poem to congratulate his beloved wife: "Study hard in the cold window night, light up the lamp before dawn. The true story of geometry, a new chapter in the physics test. Red makeup is unnecessary, and the beauty is natural. The academy has a name, and we can taste the sunny sky together. "
The happy life of the "fairy heroes" in the kingdom of mathematics is full of poems.
Behind every successful person, there is usually a successful and happy family. The goodness of the sky, Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng, two successful mathematicians, like-minded, go hand in hand, and build a happy and harmonious family. After decades of ups and downs, their relationship has become stronger, and they are leaders in their respective research fields. The combination of the walls and the brilliance of each other has created a rare century-old story in the Chinese mathematics circle.
Figure 2 Mathematics Master Gu Chaohao
Love each other, adversity is more true
Gu Chaohao once said that his life is closely related to the fate of the country and the nation.
When he was still a child, his father entrusted him to be raised by his aunt who was widowed and childless in his early years. The aunt's kind personality left a deep influence on his heart. At the age of 11, the war of resistance broke out in full swing. His youth experienced the baptism of the national liberation struggle. His party age began when he was under 14 years old. His self-encouragement to himself throughout his life is: to take the interests of the country and the nation as his own responsibility, and to pursue throughout his life is to make his motherland prosperous and strong.
In fact, the fate of Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng, a patriotic mathematics family, is also closely related to the fate of the country and the nation.
In 1958, shortly after Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng got married, Gu Chaohao went to Moscow for further studies. At that time, the country was in the era of the Great Leap Forward, and intellectuals were advocated to be both popular and professional, and all business elites were classified as "walking the white professional road". Hu Hesheng thinks that she is taking a red and professional path, but it is denied by others. She studies pure mathematics, and some people threaten to pull up her "white flag", which makes her hard to argue for a while. That year she proposed to visit relatives in Moscow. Although it was approved, some people opposed it because she took the "white road". The school leaders have a keen eye for talents. Gu Chaohao joined the Communist Party at the age of 14. He has a strong political and professional skills. Why not Hu Hesheng to visit him? So Hu Hesheng finally got his wish.
The long-lost mathematician couple gathered at the Moscow train station. When Gu Chaohao saw his beloved wife, he blurted out the first sentence:
"How do you get so thin?"
Hu Hesheng smiled lightly. All the grievances and bitterness melted into the joy of the couple's reunion. She didn't want her difficult husband to share her unhappiness.
In January, Hu Hesheng cherishes it very much. In addition to caring about her husband's daily life, she also goes hand in hand with Gu Chaohao, diving headlong into the pile of books. During this period of time, she insisted on reading several academic monographs in English and Russian on general relativity and elastic mechanics. In the meantime, she also seized an opportunity to have an unforgettable academic talk with Gu Chaohao's mentor, Rashevsky. The husband and wife sang together and forged ahead together. Since then, they have established the tone of living together.
In 1966, the Cultural Revolution broke out, and Gu Chaohao was hit. Like his teacher Su Buqing, he was also listed as a "reactionary academic authority" and a "revisionist". The rebels wanted him to explain the problem and were not allowed to go home.
Hu Hesheng is alone, and life is also difficult. The rebels wanted her to expose Gu Chaohao.
If you want me to talk about Gu Chaohao before liberation, I didn't know him at all at that time. He joined the revolution at the age of 11 and joined the party at the age of 14. This is clearly written in the files, you can check it out.
Hu Hesheng was tough. Strong and resolute, this has always been her character.
In fact, as a wife, she was very worried. She is concerned about Gu Chaohao all the time.
At that time, Gu Chaohao was locked up in the student dormitory. Hu Hesheng asked someone to pass the news to Gu Chaohao.
"I have nothing."
All words, all meanings are contained in it.
Later, the situation gradually eased. Hu Hesheng found an opportunity to take a walk, walked with Gu Chaohao, said a few words, and cheered him up.
When we are in touch with each other, we will see the truth even more in adversity!
In 2000, it was early spring and the chill was expected to be chilly. I went to the Institute of Mathematics of Fudan University with the film crew of the TV educational film "Standby in the Same Boat", and had a long meeting with Mr. Gu, and learned a lot. When we shook hands and said goodbye, I noticed that Mr. Gu's hand was cold, so I said:
"It's getting cold. You need more clothes."
"It's okay, I went to dry the quilt just now, and I didn't wear a little less clothes." Her face was calm. This is our academician Gu Chaohao, a well-known international mathematics master!
At that time, Academician Hu Hesheng was sick and hospitalized. It is conceivable that for decades, this academician husband and wife have walked over each other in this way.
Figure 3 Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng
The Story of Paris and Poetry
Poetry is one of the highest expressions of human wisdom and emotion, and it should also be the climax of this story about a mathematician and his wife.
I remember that the topic about Paris, about the Seine River and poetry, about open-air coffee bars and beer was first proposed by Hu Hesheng.
"Okay, let's talk about the period when three generations of our teachers and students got together in Paris!"
Mr. Gu and Mr. Hu obviously have a special liking for the world city that is the cradle of writers and poets, and they will never forget the encounter and reunion of three generations of their teachers and students in Paris.
In this way, that day, a story about Paris and poetry was narrated by a couple of seventy-year-old scientists.
That was 21 years ago, in 1982. In that year, Mr. Su Buqing was invited by the famous French mathematician Professor Li Wengsi and accompanied by Mr. Li Daqian to Paris. At the same time, Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng also arrived in Paris from Germany. Three generations of teachers and students gather on the banks of the Seine, which is a very poetic encounter in life, and the beauty of the story is not limited to this. At that time, Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng often went for a walk around Notre Dame de Paris at dusk and sunset. Sometimes, they would sit in an open-air coffee shop on the street, bathe in the afterglow of the setting sun, and gently sip the fresh foam French beer, comfortably browsing the ever-changing tourists and street scenes. In the early 1990s, I also lived in the 5th arrondissement near Notre Dame Cathedral, and I felt the same way as Gu and Hu. I knew that area should be said to be one of the most beautiful areas in Paris. For Mr. Gu and Mr. Hu, that area is the ideal resting place after finishing their research work. So, there, three generations of teachers and students of Sumen, who are well-known in the Chinese mathematics circle, faced the beautiful scenery of the world on the banks of the poetic Seine River, and reciprocated each other with poems and wine, which made a good story in the academic poetry circle. Among them, Mr. Su Buqing's popular song "Tonggu Chaohao, Hu Hesheng, Li Daqian Tour Paris" was written during that time. The poem says:
Among the detainees traveling thousands of miles from west to west, morning carriages and evening feasts also rule the roost. The shadows of the pagodas in every house are remnant of spring rain, and Lin Lan is everywhere in the early summer wind. A glass of wine is truly a once-in-a-thousand-year encounter, and it is rare for four people to travel together. There is no need to hold a candle to wait for the second watch, the sunset is red by the Seine.
Ten years later, in 1992. Once again, Gu Chaohao revisited Paris alone. During these 10 years, he and his wife Hu Hesheng visited Paris many times. The French colleagues attach great importance to the research work of this couple of Chinese mathematicians. The French Academy of Sciences also specially invited Gu Chaohao to participate in the academician meeting, and introduced himself and his research work in front of all the academicians. In the eyes of French colleagues, this great Chinese mathematician has made great achievements in geometric equations and gauge fields. extremely in-depth research.
At that time in 1992, Gu Chaohao still seized the time of his stay in Paris and made a new breakthrough in scientific research. He found the soliton solution of high-dimensional space. On that day, he seemed very excited, and he came to the Seine River alone. He and his wife Hu Hesheng often lingered in the area of Notre Dame de Paris. Perhaps, it was a sudden feeling of homesickness and family; , the tourists, the street scene and the fresh air made him feel emotional; in short, he suddenly remembered 10 years ago, it was also here, and it was such a pleasant evening. His mentor, Mr. Su, wrote that The first poem was about four people traveling together in Paris, so for a while, he was full of poetic feelings and couldn't control himself.
"Chaohao, look for that poem—" It was the "voiceover" by Mrs. Hu Hesheng. Obviously, she also had a special feeling for Mr. Gu's poem.
"I can recite it. However, I haven't studied Pingze well. Strictly speaking, it can't be called poetry." When Mr. Gu spoke, his attitude and tone were always so peaceful and full of humility.
So, this mathematician spread paper on the mattress and wrote it for us calmly.
This trip does not feel the pain of walking alone, but I recall the past when I walked among four people; The lights and shadows shuttle under the overpass, and the speeding car weaves a net in the tunnel; if you don't envy the prosperous land of flowers, multiple solitons go up to the night sky.
mathematicians are also poets
Gu Chaohao, Hu Hesheng's mentor Su Buqing's poetic talent is well known in today's academic circles. Coincidentally, his most proud student Gu Chaohao is also a mathematical genius full of bubbling poetry and eloquent literary talent. In fact, looking at the universe, as far as it is concerned, since Einstein, almost all the great scientists who have made great achievements in history have an indissoluble bond with literature and music. After all, those bright pearls embedded in the crown of science at the ends of the sky and the corners of the sea are naturally out of reach for those craftsmen who have no passion for poetry.
It can be said that, just as they have never left mathematics research in their lives, Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng have never lived without poetry in their lives. This is because, in their eyes, mathematics is life, and numbers and symbols are full of vitality. Facing these incomparably wonderful elves, Gu Chaohao can always be fascinated, unable to control himself, and his poetic enthusiasm will flourish; and the first reader and recipient of his poems is his good friend and beloved wife Hu Hesheng. What's interesting is that at every stage of Gu Chaohao's career, he always uses poetry and poetic language to warn himself, and he often recites it endlessly. In the eyes of the world, Gu Chaohao's verses from the depths of his life are often rich in literature and emotion, and have extraordinary connotations. Although they are repeatedly pondered, they will never be forgotten.
People's words are tasteless, but I have endless flavors, good teachers inspire many, and rare books are rich in essence. There is no one way to solve a problem, but you can find all the answers. Fortunately, Sangzi taught me, and I was moved all my life. This is the self-statement that he regards mathematics as his life, does not forget his teacher's kindness, and strives for improvement.
It’s good to go up the hills, joy and hard work, please don’t sing and look up, the majestic peak is welcoming you. This is his self-encouragement to himself when his career is advancing by leaps and bounds.
Shuyuan has never stopped thinking, and it is also successful to travel through the clouds. This is a self-portrait of his persistence in mathematics research when he took over as the president of the University of Science and Technology of China and was busy with school affairs.
Life geometry learns geometry, if you don't learn Zhuang Sheng, there is no limit. This is an expression of his state of mind that he still has no intention of going downhill in his career in his seventies.
In fact, among the many reasons for the success of the mathematician Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng, there is one point that cannot be ignored, that is, the incomparable poetic temperament of mathematicians they share with their teacher Su Buqing. And it is such a magnificent and colorful poetic temperament that has made them establish outstanding achievements in the international mathematics circle countless times. While comprehending the geometry of nature, they are also interpreting and interpreting the beautiful and colorful geometry of life.
Scholars are elegant, wise men are changeable. People commented on Gu Chaohao and Hu Hesheng in this way.
The male protagonist in the idol drama has a prominent family background, is handsome, intelligent and rich, and has a dedicated love, but because the character is too perfect, it is difficult to meet in reality.
In China's scientific circles, there are such figures.
Compared with the romantic and childish presidents in idol dramas, his tortuous life experience and broad mind have added a different taste.
This person is Academician Wang Demin known as "Wu Yanzu in the scientific world".
Personal opinion: Academician Wang is more handsome than Wu Yanzu.
He not only has good looks, but also has superhuman talent, extraordinary perseverance, a shining position, and even a star named after him shining in the universe.
Only after you get to know him, you will understand that it turns out that it is unfair to be innocent, you can focus all your beauty, talent, and excellent qualities on one person.
01. Prosperous beauty, spread on the Internet
In 2013, an application form for the China University of Petroleum, which was decades ago, was suddenly circulated on the Internet.
Thick eyebrows and thin lips, three-dimensional facial features, even the blurry black-and-white photos can't hide the tall nose bridge. It is obviously a typical European silhouette, and the Chinese people's honesty and honesty are mixed in the temperament, which adds a bit of righteousness.
And this handsome westernized appearance can be traced back to his father Wang Shigui, who was the vice president of Tongren Hospital, and his Swiss mother Wen Anqing, who followed her husband away from home to teach at the Central Institute of Foreign Trade in Beijing.
Academician Wang's father came from a scholarly family. He went abroad for further studies in the era when studying abroad was popular, and met a Swiss girl. Wang Shigui even gave her a beautiful Chinese name Wen Anqing.
After the two got married, they returned to China together to contribute to the development of the motherland.
His father, Wang Shigui, served as the vice president of Beijing Tongren Hospital, while his mother, Wen Anqing, became a teacher at the University of International Business and Economics.
In 1937, Academician Wang Demin was born in Tangshan, Hebei, the youngest son in this family of senior intellectuals.
A good family tradition has cultivated a school of peaches and plums, and his older brothers and sisters are also studying in prestigious schools, and they are all top-notch figures in their respective professional fields.
By the way, his nephew Zhu Yibing is quite accomplished in music and is also Ouyang Nana's cello teacher.
The mixed-race Wang Demin can be said to have different demeanors at different stages, from handsome young to adult, from the most widely spread high-spirited youth, to the calm and elegant now.
However, Academician Wang Demin responded in this way after learning about the fans' pursuit of his appearance: Only unscrupulous people talk about appearance!
After all, among academicians, appearance is the least important thing to mention, and what's more, he has experienced many hardships and ups and downs because of his mixed Chinese and Western appearance.
02. Both talent and appearance, half a life of ups and downs
Wang Demin, who is extremely gifted, has good academic performance since he was a child. Although his parents at home communicated in English, which resulted in his ignorance of Chinese characters when he was young, and his "existing record" of being angry with his Chinese teacher, since he started to go to Chinese school, he has adapted very quickly and achieved good grades. Soar.
However, at this time, his mixed-race identity has become a burden instead, and his appearance that is different from those around him is just to remind others of his specialness.
In that turbulent era, family status was very important, and his Swiss blood was destined not to be "red".
Therefore, he was close to full marks in all subjects, but missed Tsinghua University, which he had long wanted, and transferred to Beijing Petroleum Institute, which is the second-level college set up by China University of Petroleum.
Since then, he has devoted himself to petroleum research and has become the "most handsome alumnus" among many CNPC students.
In the five years of college, he had excellent grades, scoring 5 points in every subject, and was also the main player of the school sports team, one of the three model students in the school.
It is a pity that these efforts of his cannot resist the resistance of the times and the fiddle of fate.
As soon as he graduated, as a top student, he was assigned to the grass-roots survey team of Daqing Oilfield to participate in some daily trivial work.
If it is not for my own careful study all the time, and the unit cherishes talents, I am afraid that a bright pearl will be buried here.
Not only that, but in a special period, he was criticized for this, and the big-character posters were full of framing of him, and even Wang Demin's wife was affected.
Facing the sudden fight, the pressure on the wife can be imagined. The long-term mental condition is not good, and over time it develops into bipolar disorder. This kind of emotional illness is irritable and aggressive when it occurs. There is only one target of attack, which is her husband Wang Demin. .
With nothing to do, Wang Demin had no choice but to move out of his home and separate from his wife in order to stabilize his illness. However, a harmonious and happy family of four in the past was torn apart.
The ups and downs of half a life, the ups and downs, and the limitations everywhere, are mostly due to this handsome face. Beauty is sometimes the original sin.
03. Concentrate on scientific research and be awarded academician
If ordinary people are treated so much unfairly, they may easily be devastated and give up on themselves.
But Wang Demin persevered in the bitter cold Northeast with a sincere heart: starting from the grassroots, it gave him the opportunity to figure out and observe, and his outstanding work ability soon attracted the attention of the unit, and he was transferred to a scientific research position. He concentrates on research.
Through the accumulation of observations, Wang Demin summed up a set of calculation formula "Songliao method" that is still in use today, which is ahead of the world.
There was Wang Jinxi, an iron man in Daqing Oilfield, for which Wang Demin was known as the "Iron Man of Knowledge". He was also interviewed by Deng Xiaoping as an advanced representative.
In addition to academic research, Wang Demin pays attention to on-the-spot investigations. He can often be seen investigating and researching in the severe cold working environment. Every day, he and the workers carry the winch to the well to measure the pressure. Measured by manual pulling.
In winter, I have to take off my padded jacket and use my own body temperature to melt the frozen machine. In the later stage, he often worked tirelessly to give academic sharing meetings all over the country, and he was known as the "speaker in the petroleum industry".
In 1994, Wang Demin was elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.
For decades, Academician Wang Demin has devoted himself to scientific research and made outstanding contributions. He is an expert in oil and gas field development engineering and the founder of China's oilfield layered production and chemical flooding technology.
In recognition of his contribution to China's oil exploration, Wang Demin was awarded the lofty honor of naming the asteroid numbered 210231 "Wang Demin's Star" with the approval of the Nomenclature Committee of the International Minor Planet Center.
Frustrating experiences have honed his will, and half his life has been tortuous, but he has never complained in the slightest.
When Wang Demin's academic achievements were successful, many foreigners came to attract him, hoping to lure him away with a high salary. But Wang Demin rejected these requests one by one, saying: "Compared with foreign countries, my salary is not high, but it is enough for me."
Even if it is the enjoyment that I should have, I don’t accept it. For example, as an academician, I never go on an annual public trip.
Being content with poverty, eager to learn and enjoy the Tao, how can you not be impressed by such integrity!
Of course, Academician Wang is not a stubborn ascetic. For example, there are two anecdotes about him.
One is that because of his outstanding appearance, there were many suitors back then, so he put forward two requirements for his girlfriend: one is not to go on a date in the park; the other is not to disturb himself while reading.
This... is completely a manifestation of unintentional love, how many girls' hearts have been ruined.
As a result, after work, there were more men than women in the unit, and when the marriageable age was reached, many colleagues couldn't wait, and they all made do to get married.
Wang Demin was full of enthusiasm, and kept dragging until his future wife came to the factory. She was lively and cute, dressed in foreign style, and immediately attracted Wang Demin's attention. I wanted to pursue it, but I was embarrassed, and then my unit organized a dance to start the relationship.
The second is that once during the Chinese New Year, white noodles, pork, etc. were distributed, and the employees were asked to make dumplings by themselves. As a result, Academician Wang kept his ears to the outside world, focused on his work, and was not good at cooking, so he simply wrapped all the ingredients into two extra-large dumplings.
Academician Wang's operation is really cute and cute.
epilogue
According to the current Internet buzzwords to describe Academician Wang: Obviously he can rely on his appearance for a living, but he relies on his talent.
When he was young, academician Wang Demin had sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his imposing manner made the male protagonists in idol dramas have face. We admire and admire his superior appearance, but we admire his outstanding contribution to the oil industry of the motherland even more.
The national scholar is unparalleled, for the country and the people.
Academician Wang Demin is currently the doctoral supervisor of Northeast Petroleum University. He is dedicated to the cause of petroleum education. Compared with his rigorous scientific research spirit, fruitful scientific research achievements and noble personality charm, what is his appearance?
湖北黄冈县回龙山下，坐落着一个叫张家湾的小村庄，在村口，不知从何朝何代起，突然出现了一块巨石。
张家湾遍地丘陵、水塘，而那块石头据说重逾几十吨，这哪里是人力所能搬运的。村民因此口耳相传，说是某年某月，“它是从天上掉下来的”。
清朝末年，这个村庄出生了一个叫“李仲揆”的小孩，巧合的是，后来，他专门研究石头。
提起李仲揆，众人可能一片茫然，他的另一个名字叫李四光，这三个字恐怕就无人不知了。
● 青年李四光，浓眉大眼，气宇轩昂
但极有可能，我们对李四光的了解，也仅限于“地质学家”四个字。这四个字并不足以概括他浪漫唯美、波澜壮阔的一生。
李四光是一个超级天才，但是这个天才，上学前却不小心犯了个大错。因为这个错误，才有了“李四光”的名字。
那时还叫李仲揆的他，14岁那年，只身一人行走80千米，从故乡黄冈走到了武昌——只为读书。
在填写小学堂报名表的时候，他在“姓名”一栏填上了“十四”——那其实是他的年龄。当时一份报名表价值一元，李仲揆支付不起这笔“巨款”，无奈之下，他动了动脑筋，在“十四”上做了点手脚，将名字改成了“李四光”。
“仲揆”中的“揆”，是掌管百事之意；“四光”里的“光”，有“光被四表”的内涵。名字这么一改，境界无疑提升了好几截。
在小学堂读书满一年，次年，李四光登上了东渡日本的游轮。——他获得了留学东洋的名额。
● 青年李四光
李四光所在的“湖北第二高等小学”，不下几百个学生，但究竟有多少个去日本的指标呢？只有区区一个而已。
到达日本东京，李四光首先入“弘文书院”学习。那是一所打基础的学校，他在弘文学习日语、数学、理化等基础课程。
在弘文期间，李四光结识了后来的“中国宪政之父”宋教仁。其后，经过宋等人的引荐，他亲眼见到了国父孙中山先生。
当时还是革命事业的草创阶段，在孙中山感召下，李四光以区区学生身份、16岁的年纪，参加了中国同盟会筹备会——此即“国民党”的前身。
但孙先生并不希望其投身于锋镝之间，他勉励李四光八个字：努力向学，蔚为国用。
李四光听从了国父的话。从“弘文馆”毕业，他顺利考取日本大阪高等工业学校的造船专业。当年此专业共招收19名学生，李四光是唯一一个中国人。
他回国不久，世道一下子变了，满清覆灭，中华民国宣布成立。为了尽快恢复生产，湖北军政府组织成立了国家实业部，李四光则被推举为部长。那一年，他年仅23岁。
一切似乎在向着美好的方向发展。殊不知，辛亥革命胜利不久，果实却被袁世凯窃取，李四光倒也没有犹豫，他毅然选择去职。
唯爱之切，亦憎之真，他思量再三，决定暂时离开祖国，留学海外，走一条“科学救国”的道路。留学之前，李四光同样做好了规划，自己将来要以“地质学”作为研究方向。
后来，在洋人占据绝对权威的地质学领域，李四光硬生生闯出了名堂，并且，开宗立派。他以“地质学家”的身份扬名世界。
李四光提出了“蜓科鉴定方法”，证明了中国存在第四纪冰川，创立了地质力学……
除了这些“缥缈”的学术成就，在看得见的现实领域，他同样出类拔萃。李四光坚信中国存在石油，在他等人的理论指导下，我们积极勘探，渐渐摘掉了“贫油国”的帽子；他预测岭南一带存在铀矿石，因为铀，我们造出了原子弹……
由于有这些成就，李四光虽然游离于权力之外，但他自始至终受到最高规格的重视。
1925年，国父孙中山去世，国民政府选拔6人为先生抬棺送灵，排名第一位的，赫然竟是北大教授李四光。
为了表明重视学术，蒋委员长无数次宴请科技圈名流，其右手位置总是空缺。原来，是为李四光而留。
新中国成立后，我们的领袖也愿意会见李四光。那些举手投足之间就能影响国家命运的领导人，在李四光面前，愿意当小学生，听他侃侃而谈，论证我们国家的资源。
● 毛主席接见李四光
万里江山的地底，有数不清却看不见的资源，它们仿佛都在李四光的眼睛里，变得格外清晰。
以上帝视角去观察李四光，我们轻易就能得出一个结论：他实在太忙了。
据说，因为常年在野外踏勘，为了节约时间便于测量，他决定用自己的一步之长代替尺子。果然，李四光后来迈出的每一步，步长惊人地相等，不多不少刚刚0.85米。
● 地质考察中的李四光（中）
想必，他一定是个既冷漠又严谨之人。
并非如此。
李四光身高大约1.75米，在当年的中国南方，这也算是高个子了，他身材瘦削、仪表堂堂，堪称翩翩潇洒美少年，皎如玉树临风前。
24岁时，他辞去部长之职，远渡重洋，去英国留学。1920年伊始，在欧洲的第六个年头，百无聊赖的他，在一张8开12行的五线谱纸上，率性而为地谱写了一首小提琴曲。
三年奔走空皮骨，信有人间行路难，这两句诗是李四光当年的心情写照。所以，他将曲子命名为《行路难》。
那亦是中国历史上第一首小提琴曲。
因为李四光的才华，无论国内国外，有很多女性倾慕于他，就好比《诗经》里念的：言念君子，温其如玉；在其板屋，乱我心曲。
但与别的民国大儒不同，李四光几乎没什么“花边新闻”，在故乡他也没有“小脚太太”。直至30多岁了，他依旧孑然一身。
1920年，因为接受蔡元培的聘任，李四光回中国任教，他因此成了北大地质学学科的奠基人。但比学术成就更伟大的是，在北平期间，过了而立之年的李四光，邂逅到一段美丽的爱情。
女孩的名字叫许淑彬，出身名门，她当年担任北师大附中的音乐老师。靠着艺术搭台，两个人渐渐走到了一起。
● 电影《李四光》截图
许淑彬擅长钢琴，李四光爱好提琴，他们常常琴弦和鸣，演奏到动情处，弦凝指咽声停处，别有深情一万重。
这对佳人迅速坠入爱河，随后火速成婚，结婚一年后，他们唯一的女儿李林出生。
● 李四光和许淑彬结婚照
无论是家庭地位还是性别比例，李四光都毫无优势可言，他们家里女人说了算，李家因此变成典型的“女权社会”。
许淑彬自然深爱自己的丈夫，但却气恼于丈夫整日与石头为伍，冷落家人的状态。许淑彬“恨透”了科学，她想让女儿学习演奏钢琴，将来继承自己的衣钵。
李林6岁那年，左手手指不幸生了一个疮，等伤愈之后，她的左手食指莫名其妙短了一截。换言之，她几乎没可能成为钢琴家了。
● 李四光与女儿李林
天意使然，最终，李林走上了科学家的道路。
女儿也是个“天才苗子”。她从小跟随全家走南闯北，先后在伦敦、北京、上海，以及桂林读过书。李林的功课不但没落下，高中三年的课程，她高二第一学年就自学完成了。
李林16岁跳级，顺利考取贵阳医学院。当时外界一片兵荒马乱，许淑彬并不希望独生女儿远离自己。可是，就近的广西大学当时并没有医学系。
李四光认同妻子的主张，同时，他也觉得女孩子家家不适合东奔西跑搞地质。思忖良久，李四光给李林精挑细选了一个适合“女孩子的专业”。
1939年，李林改学机械系，她成了广西大学机械系里唯一的女生。
李四光女儿一看就是他的女儿，这对父女身上有太多的共同点。比如，父女两人都是14岁由自己改名字（李林原名李熙芝）；都是超级学霸；都是因为一个小小的错误，改变了自己的人生轨迹。
李林去英国读书，选择专业之前，她特意向父亲征求意见。李四光本来建议女儿主攻“弹性力学”（Elasticity），结果秘书发信时不小心打错了一个字母，她的研究方向变成了“塑性力学”（Plasticity）。
李林以为那就是父亲的意见，阴差阳错之间，她开始涉足“物理冶金”方面的研究。
● 李四光和夫人许淑彬、女儿李林在英国
在爱情方面，李林则要比父亲“有出息”得多。她不到25岁，就认识了自己的“真命天子”。在异国他乡，某次剑桥大学的同学会上，李林和一个叫邹承鲁的男生，共同演唱了一首《松花江上》。没错，又是通过音乐，两个年轻人迅速走到一起。
邹承鲁也称得上是一个天才，22岁时从西南联大毕业，次年，他以庚子赔款公费留学总成绩第一名被剑桥录取，直接跳级攻读博士学位。
● 年轻时的邹承鲁
邹承鲁进入剑桥两年之后，李林也去到了那里。两人神交已久，缘悭一面，等到见了面，方才意识到对方就是彼此的“the one”。
邹承鲁长相清秀，玉树临风，颜值放到现在绝对不输小鲜肉。
早在伯明翰读硕士时，李林就对他产生好感。剑桥读博期间，李林总是向其请教物理方面的问题；而每每李林在实验室忙碌到子夜时分，邹承鲁则会送去可口的夜宵。
● 李林与邹承鲁
1948年，李林和邹承鲁喜结良缘。在英国伯恩茅斯海边，伴着海浪的鸣奏，两双年轻的臂膀，紧紧地挽在了一起。
● 李四光夫妇与邹承鲁夫妇，右一为邹承鲁
不久，新中国成立的消息传来，这对小夫妻归心似箭。李林通过博士论文答辩的第二天，她就马不停蹄地回到了祖国。剑桥大学——这个星球上最顶级的学府，因为李林的博士学位无人领取，而陷入无限的为难。
回归祖国，李林进入原子能研究所，归到钱三强的麾下；邹承鲁则进入中国科学院生物研究所，开展研究酶学，为中国酶学和呼吸链研究奠定了基础。
● 工作中的李林
动乱结束后，邹承鲁是第一个在《自然》杂志发表论文的中国科学家。除了在生物化学方面取得的成就，更加叫人称道的是，邹承鲁用毕生精力捍卫学术道德。
2021年11月份，中国科学院紫金山天文台发现了一颗小行星，经“命名委员会”批准，我们将那颗小行星命名为“邹承鲁星”。从此之后，邹承鲁的名字，以及他求真的思想，进入宇宙星空，镶上了太空星辰。
无论是李四光、李林还是邹承鲁，他们都是闲不住的人。想当年就有人曾经评价李四光说：“李老的日程表上，找不到个人的消闲时间。”
李林夫妇也继承了长辈的“劳苦命”，直到耄耋之年，夫妻仍然坚持在岗位上，忘我的工作，他们还互相吐槽说：“他（她）呀，别提啦，一休息就生病。”
● 邹承鲁李林夫妇
为了表彰李四光家庭的贡献，国家授予他们院士的荣誉。
就像医学科学家吴阶平评价的那样：“李四光是院士，李林是院士，邹承鲁是院士，一家三人同为院士，在中国科技界仅此一家。”
他们的爱国之情、强国之志、报国之行，仍在激励着后人。
峥嵘岁月 | 胡和生和谷超豪：数学王国里的“神仙眷侣”
浙大校友胡和生院士和谷超豪院士，是师从同一位宗师的一对伉俪，50多年来，他们志同道合，风雨同舟，在共同喜爱的数学领域，携手攻克了一个又一个难题。在数学界，谷超豪，被认为继20世纪大数学家艾里·嘉当之后，第一位在无限变换拟群领域取得重要进展的人；胡和生，则是中国数学界第一位也是唯一一位女院士。
2003年，笔者参加上海温州老乡的聚会时，拜会了谷老和夫人，古稀之年的他俩，进出仍像热恋中的青年手相牵、人相依，我等煞是羡慕，直叹谷老和夫人真是数苑的“神仙眷侣”。
胡教授出身名门 父亲多才多艺
胡和生1928年出生在一个艺术世家，原籍江苏南京。祖父胡炎卿，是位国画家，擅长花鸟走兽，曾是与吴昌硕、王一亭、程瑶生齐名的沪上名家；父亲胡伯翔，既是画家、摄影家又是实业家，作品曾受艺术大师吴昌硕等赞许。上世纪40年代，胡伯翔还从事实业，曾任上海市化妆品工业同业会理事长等职。
胡和生读小学5年级那年，日军占领南京，祖父珍藏的书画和古董被洗劫一空，又因不从日寇对他的拉拢，险遭不测。胡和生就随父亲举家迁往上海。
太平洋战事后，日寇横行上海租界。当时，胡和生家居当时的上海环龙路，对街就是日军巢穴。胡家兄弟姐妹7人，女孩有5人，一家人自然胆战心惊，白天黑夜都拉上窗帘。国家不强大，人民就要受欺凌。胡和生从那时起就立志发愤读书，科学救国。
胡和生从小受艺术熏陶，画感、乐感很强。读小学和中学时，文理兼优，中学毕业后，胡和生考入上海交通大学，选攻有“自然科学之父”之称的数学，希望能够科学报国。到大学毕业时，已是上海解放。她放弃了去同济大学担任助教的机会，希望继续深造。这一年，她同时收到北京大学和浙江大学的录取通知。当时，中国微分几何创始人苏步青教授在浙大执教，因此她就选择了浙大。
姻缘始于图书室 苏老自称是媒人
而胡和生生命中的“另一半”谷超豪，早在1943年，就考入浙江大学数学系。1948年，苏步青教授留下谷超豪做了助教，两年之后，同样挚爱数学的胡和生成为苏步青的研究生。苏步青很喜欢谷超豪，他将管理图书室的“好事”交给谷超豪，以便可以“东翻西看”。结果，两个年轻人便在浙大求是园的图书室里相遇了。
50年过去了，谷超豪仍清晰记得与胡和生初次见面的情景：“那是1950年，我在数学系图书室里，偶遇胡和生，她说苏先生给了她一篇论文，有些地方没弄清楚，想让我帮她看一看。我说：好啊，论文呢？她说论文在宿舍里。她的宿舍离我办公室有十多分钟路程。当时已经是秋天，但天气依然很热，她气喘吁吁地跑去拿回来，我觉得这个小姑娘很不错，对学问肯钻研。我们共同讨论了一下，她就把论文的内容都弄清楚了。”
对微分几何的共同爱好，使得两个年轻人的心迅速靠近。谷超豪，温文尔雅，古文修养很好，能脱口成诗；胡和生，开朗健谈，喜爱绘画、摄影。他们除了切磋学问外，还有说不完的话题。
胡和生研究生毕业后也留校工作，1952年高校院系调整，她和谷超豪双双随苏步青到了复旦大学。
1957年，经过7年的“爱情长跑”，在浙大埋下的爱情种子在复旦开花结果，他们喜结连理，成了人人称羡的数苑“神仙侠侣”。
1996年11月，谷超豪先生过70岁生日，94岁的苏步青眉开眼笑，兴致极高，他一手挽着谷超豪，一手挽着胡和生，亲切地说，“今天我要给你们俩祝福！你们俩当初结婚还是我做的媒呢！”
谷超豪胡和生伉俪，笑得合不拢嘴，胡和生的脸上似乎还有一丝甜蜜的羞涩。
异国并肩攻读 “牛棚”传递纸条
1957年，新婚燕尔的谷超豪告别爱妻前往苏联莫斯科大学留学，刻苦攻读。留在国内的胡和生也埋头科研。他们之间，只能通过鸿雁传情。
1958年，否定、批判基础研究的左倾思潮干扰了数学界，胡和生也被波及，她成了“走白专道路”的典型。学校里有人扬言要拔胡和生的“白旗”。连胡和生提出赴苏联探亲，也有人反对，幸好学校领导顶住压力，批准了她的莫斯科之行。
在莫斯科火车站，谷超豪一见胡和生，就大吃一惊：“怎么瘦成这样？”胡和生淡然一笑，只字未提自己受的委曲。她不想让正在苦读的丈夫为她分担压力和辛酸。一安顿好，小夫妻就双双扎进了图书馆里。
在短短一个月的探亲假内，她硬是读完了几大本有关广义相对论、弹性力学的英、俄文学术专著。并在谷超豪的帮助下，抓住一个机会，跟谷超豪的导师拉舍夫斯基作了一次难忘的学术长谈。
1959年，谷超豪被破格授予莫斯科大学物理数学科学博士学位后，回到了祖国。1960年到1965年，谷超豪进入了学术丰收季节。
但不幸的是，“文革”来了，苏步青被打为“反动学术权威”，谷超豪被列为“修正主义分子”，大字报铺天盖地，抄家、批斗、隔离审查、强迫劳动都来了……谷超豪默默地忍受着，扫厕所、捅下水道、爬屋顶等，样样都干，而且干得认真。
胡和生在家也是艰难度日，“造反派”逼迫她揭发谷超豪，她很硬气：“要我说谷超豪解放前的事情，那时我根本不认识他。他11岁就投身革命，14岁入党，这都明明白白写在档案里，你们可以去查他的档案啊！”
当时谷超豪被关在学生宿舍，胡和生找来他们贴心的学生，让学生悄悄地递纸条过去。很快，回条来了，上面写着：“我没有什么。”看到谷超豪匆忙中写下的5个字，胡和生心里略感宽慰，但眼圈红了。
不久，形势渐见缓和，看管有所放松。胡和生一有机会就去看谷超豪，说说话，给他打打气。
一对恩爱夫妻 双双学部委员
1976年，祖国终于开始拨乱反正，科学的春天来临。此时，谷超豪已是50岁的人了。但他很快便在数学的几个研究领域接连取得了新的国际领先的成果。1980年他当选为中国科学院院士(学部委员)。
胡和生在自己的研究领域也是硕果累累。1991年，胡和生当选中科院院士，成为中国数学界第一位女院士。
在谷超豪、胡和生简朴的家中，一个书房两张写字台，谷超豪的书桌朝阳，胡和生的书桌面墙。两位院士就在这里并肩研究。平时，两人的研究领域各有侧重，但到合作时，往往十分默契，成果迭出。这里有个故事：1974年6月，诺贝尔奖得主、物理学家杨振宁到复旦大学作规范场理论报告并建议进行共同研究，这牵涉到一系列复杂的现代数学问题。让杨振宁感到意外的是，几天后，谷超豪和胡和生就拿出了两项国际领先的研究成果。这使杨振宁十分高兴，一再热情地邀请他们赴美研究。
谷超豪惬意地说：“我做的工作可以讲给她听，她做的工作可以讲给我听。我们互相理解，也可以互提问题、相互核验，这是生活中最大的乐趣！”
日常生活中，谷超豪、胡和生爱做减法：每天6点30分起床，烧些泡饭、煮个鸡蛋。8点准时开始工作。晚上则是阅读研究生的论文，几十年如一日。
有记者要为夫妇俩拍照，爱美的胡和生立刻理了理头发：“今天我头发没好好整理，衣服也不对。”谷超豪则笑盈盈地说，同样研究了一辈子数学，书画世家出身的夫人，就是懂色彩的搭配、款式的和谐，他平时的衣服都是夫人买的，他很相信夫人的品位、美感。
“我每次出席重要活动，胡和生都要关心一下我的‘行头’。只要给她的手这么一弄，总是蛮精神的。”
他们俩的身体都不算壮实。上世纪90年代，谷超豪生过两次大病。一次，差不多有三、四个月之长，半夜常会突然醒来，而后就是不能入睡等到天亮。靠着医生的精心治疗、胡和生的关爱护持，才终于挺了过来。
近十年来，谷超豪、胡和生身体欠佳，有时轮番住院，便形影不离地厮守在一起。他们的病房布置得像书房一般，病情稍有转好，就一起进入了他们的数学世界。一位倚在病床上，一位坐在椅子上，要么静静地看书，要么小声讨论着什么。
谷超豪、胡和生也乐于让年轻人分享他们的爱情故事。1992年，安徽的一家报纸试刊，请中国科大的朱光华写了篇题为《数苑共游四十年风雨同舟情更深》的文章。谷超豪、胡和生还专门从上海寄来了一张合影，作为文章的配图。这张照片上印有两行字：“一对恩爱夫妻 双双学部委员”
胡和生当选院士时，谷超豪赋诗祝贺爱妻：“苦读寒窗夜，挑灯黎明前。几何得真传，物理试新篇。红妆不需理，秀色天然研。学苑有令名，共尝艳阳天。”
数学王国“神仙侠侣”的幸福人生，洋溢诗中。
每个成功的人士后面，通常都有一个成功的幸福的家庭。天公作美，谷超豪和胡和生这两位成功的数学家，志同道合，携手并进，建立了一个幸福的和谐的家庭，数十年历经风雨而感情弥笃，且在各自的研究领域独领风骚，珠联壁合，相映成辉，造就了中国数学界一段难得的百年佳话。
相濡以沫 患难更见真情
谷超豪曾自谓，自己此生，与国家、民族的命运息息相依。
还在孩提时代，父亲就将他交托早年守寡、没有子女的婶母抚养。婶母善良的人格在他心里留下至深的影响。11岁时，抗战全面爆发。他的少年时代经历了民族解放斗争风雨的洗礼。他的党龄，从不满14岁时便已开始。他对自己一生的自勉是：以国家、民族利益为己任，一生追求，便是使自己的祖国富强起来。
其实，谷超豪和胡和生这个爱国的数学家庭之命运，也是与国家、民族的命运息息相关。
1958年，谷超豪和胡和生新婚不久，谷超豪便远赴莫斯科深造。其时国内正值大跃进年代，提倡知识分子又红又专，凡业务尖子都被划入“走白专道路”之列。胡和生自认为自己走的是又红又专的道路，却遭人否认，她研究的是纯粹数学，有人便扬言要拔她的“白旗”，令她一时百口难辩。那年她提出赴莫斯科探亲，虽然已被批准，却也有人反对，原因便是她走的是“白专道路”。学校领导慧眼识才，谷超豪14岁加入共产党，政治过硬，业务也过硬，胡和生去看望他，有何不可？于是胡和生终于如愿成行。
久别的数学家夫妇相聚在莫斯科火车站，谷超豪见到爱妻，脱口而出的第一句话：
“怎么瘦成这样？”
胡和生淡然一笑。所有的委屈和辛酸都融化在夫妇重逢的喜悦之中。她不想让艰难攻关的丈夫为她分担不快。
异国一月，胡和生备加珍惜，除了关心丈夫的生活起居，她也跟谷超豪齐头并进，一头扎进书堆。在这段时间里，她硬是读完了几大本有关广义相对论、弹性力学的英、俄文学术专著。其间，她还抓到一个机会，跟谷超豪的导师拉舍夫斯基作了一次难忘的学术长谈。夫唱妻和，砥砺共进，从那时起，他们就奠定了共同生活的基调。
1966年，文革祸起，谷超豪受到冲击，他和乃师苏步青一样，也被列为“反动学术权威”、“修正主义分子”，造反派要他交代问题，不准回家。
胡和生孑然一身，日子一样不好过。造反派要她揭发谷超豪。
要我说谷超豪解放前的事情，那时我根本不认识他。他11岁就投身革命，14岁入党，这都明明白白写在档案里，你们可以去查嘛。
胡和生很硬。坚强，刚毅，这是她历来的性格。
其实，作为妻子，她又很担心。她无时无刻不在牵挂着谷超豪。
那时，谷超豪被关在学生宿舍。胡和生让人传递消息给谷超豪。
“我没有什么。”
所有的话，所有的意思都包含在里面了。
后来，形势渐渐缓和了一些。胡和生有找机会，利用散步，跟谷超豪走在一起，讲几句话，为他打打气。
相濡以沫，患难更见真情哪！
2000年，时值初春，寒意料峭。我偕《风雨同舟肝胆情》电视教育片摄制人员去复旦大学数学所，与谷先生晤谈良久，获教多多。握手话别时，我发觉谷先生的手很凉，便说：
“天气凉了。您要多加点衣服。”
“没有关系，我刚才去晒被子，衣服穿少了一点。”一脸的恬淡。这就是我们的谷超豪院士，名闻遐迩的国际级数学大师哪！
其时，胡和生院士正生病住院。可以想见，几十年来，这对院士伉俪就是这样相濡遗墨以沫地走过来的。
巴黎和诗的故事
诗是人类智慧和感情的至高表达之一，也应该是本篇数学家伉俪故事的高潮。
记得那天关于巴黎、关于塞纳河与诗、关于露天咖啡吧和啤酒的话题，是胡和生最早主动提出的。
“好吧，就谈谈我们师生三代在巴黎相聚的那一段吧！”
谷先生和胡先生显然对那座为文学家和诗人摇篮的世界都市情有独钟，对他们师生三代在巴黎的邂逅相聚殊难忘怀。
就这样，那天，一段关于巴黎和诗的故事，由一对年届七十岁的科学家夫妇嘴里娓娓道来。
那是21年前，1982年。那一年，苏步青先生应法国著名数学家李翁斯教授之邀，在李大潜先生的陪同下来到巴黎，其时，谷超豪和胡和生夫妇也同时从德国到了巴黎。师生三代相聚在塞纳河畔，那本身就是太诗意不过的人生际遇，故事的美丽自不仅于此。那时，谷超豪和胡和生夫妇常在黄昏落日时分去巴黎圣母院一带散步，有时，就会坐在街头的露天咖啡座，沐浴着落日的余晖，轻轻地啜饮着那散发着清新泡末的法国啤酒，惬意地浏览着那变化无穷的游人和街景。90年代初，我也曾居住在临近巴黎圣母院的第5区，跟谷、胡二位深具同感的是，我知道，那一带应该说是巴黎最美的地段之一。而对于谷先生和胡先生来说，那一带又是做完研究工作后最理想的休憩所在。于是，就在那里，中国数学界素负盛名的苏门师生三代，在富有诗意的塞纳河畔，面对天地美景，以诗佐酒，互致酬答，成就了学界诗坛的一段佳话。其中，苏步青先生的那首脍炙人口的《同谷超豪、胡和生、李大潜游巴黎》就是在那段时间里写成的。诗曰：
万里西来羁旅中，朝车暮宴亦称雄。家家塔影残春雨，处处林岚初夏风。杯酒真成千载遇，远游难得四人同。无须秉烛二更候，塞纳河边夕阳红。
10年以后，1992年。又一次地，谷超豪一个人重游巴黎。在这10年间，他和夫人胡和生曾多次访问巴黎。法国同行十分重视这对中国数学家夫妇的研究工作。法国科学院还曾专程邀请谷超豪参加院士大会，在全体院士面前对他本人和他的研究工作作了介绍，在法国同行的眼里，这位了不起的中国数学家在几何方程、规范场方面都作了极为深入的研究。
1992年那一次，谷超豪仍抓紧在巴黎的逗留时间，在科研上又取得一个新的突破，他找到了高维空间的孤粒子解。那一天，他显得很兴奋，独自一人，又来到了塞纳河畔，他和夫人胡和生经常盘桓流连的巴黎圣母院那一带，也许，是一种思乡思亲情愫陡然而生；也许，是落日、晚霞，游人、街景和那扑面而来的清新空气令他触景生情；总之，他忽然想起了10年前，也是在这里，也是这样一个令人怡然而乐的黄昏，他的恩师苏先生写下的那首四人同游巴黎的诗，于是，一时间，他诗情汩汩，不能自已。
“超豪，你找一找那首诗——”那是夫人胡和生的“画外音”，显然，她对谷先生的那首诗也有一种特殊的感情。
“我能背得出。不过，我一直没有好好学过平仄，严格说来，不能叫诗。”谷先生说话时，态度和语气总是那么平和，那么谦怀若谷。
于是，这位数学大师在床褥上铺纸挥毫，为我们从容写来。
此行不觉独行苦，但忆昔行四人间；埃菲金光壮夜色，塞纳银波逐晨钟。灯影穿梭天桥下，飞车织网地道中；不羡花都繁华地，多重孤子上夜空。
数学大师也是诗人
谷超豪、胡和生的恩师苏步青的诗才在当今学界是人尽皆知的，无独有偶，他最得意的门生谷超豪，也是一位充满汩汩诗情、滔滔文才的数学奇人。其实，综观宇内，就近而言，自爱因斯坦始，凡有大成就彪柄史籍的大科学家，几乎无一不与文学音乐有不解之缘。说到底，那些镶嵌在天之涯、海之角的科学皇冠上的颗颗璀璨明珠，自是与一般毫无如诗激情的匠人辈无缘交臂的。
可以说，如同一生从来没有离开过数学研究一样，谷超豪和胡和生双宿双飞的一生也从来离不开诗，这是因为，在他们的眼里，数学就是人生，数字、符号都是充满生命活力的精灵，对着这些美妙无比的精灵，总能让谷超豪心醉神驰，不能自已，诗情勃发；而他诗作的第一读者和感受者便是他的良友爱妻胡和生。有意思的是，每每在谷超豪事业的阶段性时刻，他总会用诗和诗一般的语言精警自己，且常诵不辍。而在世人眼里，谷超豪的这些发自生命深处的诗句，又常常是文情并茂，底蕴不凡，虽反复玩味，终难忘却。
人言数无味，我道味无穷，良师多启发，珍本富精蕴。解题岂一法，寻思求百通。幸得桑梓教，终生为动容。这是他视数学为生命且不忘师恩、锐意求进的自况。
上得山丘好，欢乐含辛苦，请勿歌仰止，雄峰正相迎。这是当他处在事业突飞猛进之时对自己的自勉自励。
数苑从来思不停，穿云驰车亦有成。这是当他接任中国科技大学校长后，处校务繁忙之际仍坚持数学研究的自我写照。
人生几何学几何，不学庄生殆无边。这是他年逾七旬仍无意在事业上走下坡路的心况之表露。
其实，数学大师谷超豪和胡和生伉俪成功的众多原因中，有一点是不能忽视的，那就是他们与乃师苏步青共有的、无与伦比的数学家的诗人气质。而正是这样一种瑰丽多姿的诗人气质，令他们无数次地在国际数坛建立奇勋，在参悟自然几何的同时也在解读和演绎着美丽多姿的人生几何。
学者高雅，智者多变。人们这样评价谷超豪和胡和生。
科学界颜值天花板，“最帅院士”王德民：不正经的人才谈长相
偶像剧中的男主角，家世显赫，英俊潇洒，聪慧多金，用情专一，但因为人设太完美，在现实中很难遇到。
在中国的科学界，却偏偏存在这样的人物。
比起偶像剧里那些沉溺于风花雪月、作风幼稚的公子总裁们，他曲折的身世，博大的胸怀，反而还更增添了不一样的味道。
这个人就是被称为“科学界吴彦祖”的王德民院士。
个人认为：王院士比吴彦祖帅。
他不只是有颜值，还有超人的才华，超群的毅力，闪烁的职位，甚至还有一颗以他名字命名的星星在宇宙中闪耀。
只有了解他之后，才会明白，原来上天真的是不公平的，可以把美貌，才华，优秀的品质等全都贯注到一个人身上。
01. 盛世美颜，流传网络
在2013年，网上忽然流传一张远在几十年前的中国石油大学的报名表，全网疯狂转发，原因无他：照片上的人太帅了。
浓眉薄唇，五官立体，高糊的黑白照片也挡不住高挺的鼻梁，明明是典型的欧式轮廓，又在气质中掺杂了中国人的忠直耿介，添了几分浩然正气。
而这样的英俊洋化的容貌，要追溯到他曾担任同仁医院副院长的父亲王世贵和跟随丈夫远离家乡来到北京中央外贸学院任教的瑞士母亲文安清。
王院士的父亲出身书香世家，在那个流行留学的年代出洋深造，并结识了一位瑞士姑娘，王世贵还给她起了个优美的中文名字文安清。
两人喜结连理之后一齐回到中国，为祖国发展贡献力量。
他的父亲王世贵担任北京同仁医院副院长，而母亲文安清成为对外经贸大学的教师。
1937年，王德民院士生于河北唐山，是这个高级知识分子家庭中最小的儿子。
良好的家风培养出一门桃李，他的哥哥姐姐也都是就读名校，在各自专业领域都是拔尖人物。
顺便说一句，他的外甥朱亦兵在音乐方面颇有造诣，还是欧阳娜娜的大提琴老师。
混血的王德民可谓是从小帅到大，各个阶段都有不同的风采，从流传最广的年轻时的意气风发，到现在的沉稳儒雅。
但是，王德民院士在了解网友对他颜值的追捧之后，反而如此回应：只有不正经的人才谈长相！
毕竟在院士这里，长相是最不值一提的了，还有就是，他也曾因这中西混合的外表经历过不少磨难坎坷。
02.才貌兼备，坎坷半生
天赋极高的王德民从小学习成绩就好，虽然家里父母交流都用英文，导致小时候不识汉字，还有了气走中文老师的“前科”，但自从开始上中文学校，便适应极快，成绩一飞冲天。
但是，在此时他的混血身份反而成了累赘，异于周围的外貌也不过是在提醒别人他的特殊。
在那个风云激荡的年代，家庭成分是很重要的，他的瑞士血统注定不够“红”。
因此，门门科目接近满分的他却无缘心仪已久的清华大学，阴差阳错转入北京石油学院，也就是中国石油大学设置的二级学院。
此后，他投身石油科研，成了现在众多中石油学子口中的“最帅校友”。
在大学五年中，他成绩极其优异，每门功课都能拿5分，还是校运动队的主力队员，全校三名模范学生之一。
可惜，他的这些努力抵不过时代的阻力和命运的拨弄。
于是一毕业，身为高材生的他被分配到大庆油田的基层测量组，参加一些日常的琐碎工作。
如果不是自己始终细心钻研，加上单位惜才，一颗明珠恐怕就此埋没。
不仅如此，在特殊时期，他还因此被批斗，大字报上写满了对他的构陷，甚至还波及了王德民的妻子。
面对突如其来的争斗，妻子压力可想而知，长期精神状况不佳，久而久之发展成了躁郁症，这种情绪病在发病时易怒，有攻击性，攻击的对象只有一个，就是丈夫王德民。
无计可施，王德民只好搬出自己的家，和妻子分居，以求能安稳病症，可是一个往日和谐快乐的四口之家，也就支离破碎。
坎坷半生，大起大落，处处受限，竟然多半缘于这张英俊的脸，美貌有时是原罪。
03.潜心科研，荣膺院士
假如普通人受到这么多不公待遇，也许很容易就一蹶不振，自暴自弃了。
可是王德民凭着一片赤诚之心硬生生在苦寒的东北坚持下来了：从基层做起，反而给了他揣摩观察的机会，出类拔萃的工作能力更是不久引起了单位的注意，调到了科研岗位让他专心研究。
日积月累的观察，王德民总结出了一套至今还在应用的测算公式“松辽法”，领先于世界。
大庆油田有铁人王进喜，王德民也因此有了“知识铁人”的称号，还曾经作为先进代表接受过邓小平的接见。
除了学术研究，王德民注重实地考察，常常能见到他在严寒的工作环境中考察研究，天天和工人抬着绞车上井测压，一天要测十多口井，侧重的机器一百多公斤，全靠人力拉动测量。
到了冬天，更是要脱了棉袄，用自己的体温融化上冻的机器。在后期还常常不辞舟车劳顿，在全国各地作学术分享会，有“石油界的演说家”之称。
1994年，王德民当选为中国工程院院士。
几十年来，王德民院士潜心科研，功勋卓著，是油气田开发工程专家，中国油田分层开采和化学驱油技术的奠基人。
为了表彰他在中国石油开采方面的贡献，经国际小行星中心命名委员会批准，王德民获得国际编号为210231号小行星命名为“王德民星”的崇高荣誉。
挫折的经历磨练了他的意志，半生曲折，他却从未有过丝毫抱怨。
在王德民学术成果有所成时，不少外国人慕名而来，想要高薪挖走他。而王德民却一一拒绝了这些请求，如是说道：“和国外比，我的工资不算高，但足够我用。”
甚至就算是自己应有的享受也不接受，比如作为院士，一年一度公费旅游从来都不去。
安于清贫，好学乐道，如此气节，怎能不让人折服呢！
当然，王院士倒也不是顽固不化的苦行僧，比如他还有两则轶事流传在外。
一是当年因为外表出众，追求者甚多，他对女朋友提出两个要求：一是不能去公园约会；二是不能打扰自己看书。
这……完全就是无心恋爱的表现啊，浇灭了多少女孩的芳心。
结果工作之后，单位男多女少，适婚年龄到了，很多同事等不及，都纷纷凑合结婚。
王德民心气高，一直拖着，直到未来的夫人来到厂里，活泼可爱，穿着洋气，一下子吸引了王德民的眼光。有意追求，又不好意思，还是后来单位组织一场舞会开启情缘。
二是有一次过年发了白面猪肉等，想让员工们自己包饺子吃。结果王院士两耳不闻窗外事，一心工作，又厨艺不精，干脆把所有材料包成两个特大号饺子。
王院士这波操作真是够萌够可爱了。
结语
按照现在的网络流行语来形容王院士：明明可以靠脸吃饭，可他偏偏靠才华。
年轻时的王德民院士剑眉星目，气宇轩昂，让偶像剧中的男主有了脸。我们羡慕和赞叹他的优越长相，但更钦佩他为祖国石油事业所作的杰出贡献。
国士无双，为国为民。
王德民院士现任东北石油大学的博士生导师，为石油教育事业尽职尽责，比起他严谨的科研精神、丰硕的科研成果和崇高的人格魅力，颜值又算得了什么呢！
