According to the history of China University of Science and Technology, the school was originally moved to Nanyang, Henan, and later changed to Anqing, Anhui. It can also be seen from relevant information that China University of Science and Technology wants to be built in Henan. Henan rejected the most authoritative statement of China University of Science and Technology because it was afraid that university teachers and students would crowd out Henan's staple food and non-staple food.
At that time, Comrade Li Desheng, then director of Anhui Revolutionary Committee and leader of the Party's core leading group, learned that China University of Science and Technology was going to relocate and actively requested the central authorities to move the university to Anhui.
The Chinese University of Science and Technology first received instructions to evacuate to Anqing City, Anhui Province. From 1969 to 12, nearly a thousand people from the Chinese University of Science and Technology arrived in Anqing. Some teachers and students think that Anqing has difficult conditions and oppose the school relocation.
At that time, Comrade Li Desheng said: "The central government decided to delegate HKUST to Anhui. Originally considered in Anqing, it may not be suitable now, but it can be placed in Hefei. "
The Anhui Provincial Revolutionary Committee decided to cancel the establishment of Hefei Normal University and enrich the teachers and students of all departments of Hefei Normal University to Anhui Normal University (Wuhu City), Anhui Labor University (located in Xuanlangguang Farm in Xuancheng City) and Anqing Teaching Point of Anhui Normal University. As a result, 6,000 teachers and students' families and instrument books of the Chinese University of Science and Technology moved to Hefei to run schools in the former Hefei Normal College.
After the situation improved, China University of Science and Technology always wanted to move back to Beijing. After all, it still depends on the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but Anhui has tried its best to keep it. In the end, China University of Science and Technology failed. In order to keep the University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, which has no central heating, installed heating for the University of Science and Technology of China, which is the first one in Hefei. In addition, Anhui Province also actively coordinated with the Ministry of Railways to open a special line from Hefei to Beijing, so that HKUST staff can return to Beijing to visit relatives. Therefore, China HKUST canceled the idea of returning to Beijing and devoted himself to running a school in Hefei.
Therefore, Anhui has long owned China University of Science and Technology. By chance, there is a top university in Anhui. On the basis of China University of Science and Technology, Anhui Province also won the China Academy of Sciences to set up research institutes and research institutes in Hefei. Among the top 20 national laboratories under state key construction, Anhui accounts for 3, second only to Beijing.
