During the Republic of China, many romantic figures emerged in the competition, and the political, business and cultural circles were colorful. "The mountains and rivers are picturesque, and there are many heroes for a while." However, after careful study of their children, many families have no viable figures to support the pillars of their families after the emergence of a powerful hero, and even many black sheep are "killed" the next year. Family style and education are key factors. Just like Li Hongzhang, the man of the Westernization Movement in the late Qing Dynasty, when he visited abroad, foreign media reported that he was called "Prime Minister". Needless to say, there is a saying in "Jia Cai" that "Hefei is the prime minister and the world is thin". In his hometown of Anhui alone, he owns 2.57 million mu of land. Rong Hong once said that after Li Hongzhang's death, he had a private property of 40 million yuan. However, the development of Li Hongzhang's children and grandchildren is lacking, and there is no obvious achievement in politics. Li, the eldest son, made a fortune to foreigners by selling real estate and antiques, but raised a prodigal son, who was driven out of Shanghai by foreigners and eventually died in Dalian. The prodigal son finally spent all his savings and died of poverty and disease. The second son, Li Jingshu, lived for a long time and died shortly after Li Hongzhang's death. Li Jingmai, the youngest son, participated in the recovery of Zhang Xun. After his failure, he lived in seclusion in Shanghai and became a charterer. A descendant of Li Hongzhang once laughed at himself, saying that the Li family is still a small farmer. When they get rich, they will only buy houses and land, and there will be no entrepreneurs. Another example is the Sheng Xuanhuai family, known as the richest man in the late Qing Dynasty. Song Ailing is a tutor at home and madly pursues Miss Sheng. As a result, the Sheng family thought that "the door was not right" and hit Yuanyang. Who knows that times have changed? After Sheng Xuanhuai's death, no one can support Fu Sheng. His favorite son, Sheng, is also one of the most famous black sheep in Shanghai. In the end, he died of poverty and illness. However, if we look at the Republic of China carefully, we have a very good family. With a good family style and style of study, all kinds of talents of future generations come forth in large numbers and continue to this day. That's the Wangs in Suzhou. Wang Jitong was born in 1875. His father, Wang, was a scholar in Guangxu period and a senior official in Qing Dynasty. My mother's name is Wang Changda, and she is also a heroine among women. She often defends oppressed women, and Suzhou people call her "Wang Tiger". With the full support of Zhang Taiyan and Cai Yuanpei, she founded Zhenhua Girls' School on 1905. These celebrities also personally served as directors of Zhenhua Girls' School. When Wang Jitong was young, he loved mathematics and taught himself. He wrote books such as "Comparative Solution of Product" and "Wide Multiplication", which became important books introducing modern western mathematics at that time. 19 1 1 year, he published the differential method of quaternion function in the Journal of the Royal Irish Academy of Sciences, which is known as "Wang's Algebra" and is also regarded as the earliest modern mathematics paper published by China scholars in international academic journals. After middle age, Wang Jitong was addicted to Buddhism and devoted himself to the study of Buddhism. Miraculously, he not only meditated, but also combined his mathematics hobby with Buddhism and published A Comparative Study of Buddhism and Science, which caused great repercussions in the Buddhist circles in China. Wang Ji had twelve children in the same family, five of whom died young and seven survived. Moreover, these seven children are all schoolmasters, with remarkable achievements and outstanding achievements in different fields. Wang Jitong has four sons. The first son, Wang Shoujing, is a super schoolmaster. At that time, Tsinghua was divided into basic courses and advanced courses, each of which lasted for four years, which was roughly equivalent to the level of middle school to freshman or sophomore in the United States. Going abroad after graduation is generally a sophomore. However, Wang Shoujing skipped the advanced courses all the way, and after studying in Tsinghua campus for two years, he went to study in the United States. After going to the United States, I went directly to the Institute of Physics of Cornell University to study for a master's degree. It took me less than a year to get a master's degree in physics, then I switched to Harvard University to study for a master's degree in literature, and then I went back to my old job to study for a doctor's degree in physics at Columbia University. It was the golden age of the development of quantum mechanics. Wang Shoujing's doctoral thesis became one of the first five papers on quantum physics in the United States. His thesis didn't have the signature of the tutor, because no one could guide him. His "Wang Formula" is at the forefront of theoretical physics in the world, and it is still quoted by college physics textbooks. Wang Shoujing later returned to China to work, but it was during the September 18th Incident that Wang Shoujing gave up theoretical physics and turned to industry. During his tenure as general manager of Central Machinery Plant, he manufactured the first large generator, the first large steam turbine and the first batch of "Resource Brand" 4-ton cars in China. Wang Shoujing died on 1984 and lived to the age of 80. The second son is Wang Shourong, one of the founders of the discipline of precision machinery and instruments in China. He studied in Tsinghua University and worked as a design engineer in the Canadian Imperial Machine Factory. Later, he also returned to China and devoted his life to the precision machinery manufacturing industry. During his tenure as a professor at Nankai University and Tianjin University, he compiled and published the first set of teaching materials for precision instrument engineering in China, and trained the first batch of senior talents in precision machinery and instrumentation. Regrettably, in a special era, he was branded as a "reactionary academic authority" and committed suicide at the age of 49. The third son, Wang Shouwu, graduated from Tongji University, and later received a doctorate from Purdue University in the United States. He returned to China in the early 1950s and served as the deputy director of the Institute of Semiconductors, Chinese Academy of Sciences. 1980 was elected as an academician of China Academy of Sciences. He is one of the pioneers and founders of semiconductor science and technology in China. The first germanium alloy diffusion transistor and the first semiconductor laser in China were successfully developed, and 20 14 died at the age of 95. The fourth son, Wang Shoujue, is also an expert in semiconductor research. /kloc-0 was elected as an academician of China academy of sciences in 1980, and died in 20 16 at the age of 9 1 year. Wang Jitong has four sons, all of whom are heroes. Surprisingly, all three daughters have made extraordinary achievements in different fields. Wang Jitong's first daughter is Wang Shuzhen, who enjoys a high reputation in the medical field and is one of the founders of China Obstetrics and Gynecology Department. At that time, people called "Nanwang" Beilin, which refers to the forest of Peking Union Medical College Hospital, and "Nanwang" refers to Shanghai. (The picture shows Professor Lin on the left and Professor on the right) After witnessing his mother's death due to puerperal disease, he decided to study medicine. After studying in Suzhou Women's Medical College, she won the Tsinghua Geng Scholarship to study in the United States, and obtained the medical doctor's degree. After returning to China, he founded obstetrics and gynecology in Ximen Women and Children Hospital, and later served as the director of Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Shanghai Medical University. Together with "Beling" Lin, she filled the gap in obstetrics and gynecology in China. Wang Shuzhen died in 199 1 at the age of 93. The second daughter is Wang Mingzhen, a famous physicist and the first female professor in Tsinghua University history. She is called "Madame Curie of China". When Wang Mingzhen was young, in order to study, she broke off her engagement with her fiance and went to the United States to study. After receiving her Ph.D. from the University of Michigan, she worked in the Radar Institute of Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Wang Mingzhen wanted to return to China to serve the motherland, but at that time, the development of radar was confidential and the Immigration Bureau refused to let her return to China. Under the care of Premier Zhou, it took more than two years to return to the motherland. Since then, I have been teaching and doing research in Tsinghua. The paper "The Theory of Brownian Motion" published by Wang Mingzhen and his tutor Uhlenbeck is a classic work on Brownian motion and one of the important reference materials of statistical mechanics. Wang Mingzhen married late and had no children for life, and devoted himself to physics all his life. He died on 20 10 at the age of 104. The third daughter is Wang Shoukun, the most low-key of these children. She 1934 graduated from the Department of Physics in Tsinghua University, went to the University of Manchester in England to study, and worked as a physics translator for a long time. Her husband Lu Xueshan is also an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. By the way, he is Hui Ze, the niece of Wang Jitong, and the wife of Qian Sanqiang, a famous nuclear physicist. Wang's learning hegemony is inseparable from his family inheritance. His children summed up his educational methods as "three sentences and a half". The first sentence is: example is better than words. Wang Shoujue, the son of Wang Jitong, explained: "Because adults like to nag, children nag last, so it is useless for adults to nag for a long time. Example is better than words. Adults will naturally learn how to do it themselves. The second sentence is: it is better to talk more than to read more. If you let the child do this and that, it is better to observe which direction he is developing. If you find a deviation, try to influence him slowly instead of nagging. The third sentence is: respect for self-development. Every child has his own ideas and should respect his self-development. Wang Jitong was born in mathematics, but several children studied physics and some studied medicine. Wang Jitong didn't go to any university in his life, so he taught himself. Almost all his children have gone abroad. They are all doctors. When the second daughter, Wang Mingzhen, wanted to divorce and study abroad, Wang Jitong originally disagreed, but later respected her daughter's own wishes. These seven children did not rely on Wang Jitong to study abroad, but relied on scholarships and hard work to maintain their study abroad. Although her daughter Wang Mingzhen received an invitation for a four-year scholarship at that time, because she didn't have enough money to travel, she worked for another two years and saved enough money to travel. The last sentence is a half sentence with only two words: never mind. Although it is the shortest, it may be the most thought-provoking for parents now. Author: Lemon
