Facing the call of the motherland, "Harvard Eight Musketeers" abandoned the United States and returned to China. Why is this a true example of the times?
"Science has no national boundaries, and there are no national boundaries in the field of scientific research. All inventions and discoveries are aimed at benefiting mankind and bringing social progress to a new level. However, on the issue of patriotism, researchers should have a pure heart.

Some people want to stay abroad for better scientific research environment and more favorable treatment conditions, even if the motherland tries its best to train you into a useful person. Although this behavior can't be completely wrong, after all, everyone likes a better environment, but it always sounds a bit embarrassing, and the "Harvard Eight Musketeers" is different.

They have a long history of belonging to the motherland in Wan Li, and neither high salary nor preferential treatment can stop them from going home. As long as our motherland needs us, we will definitely come back. This is the truest voice in their hearts.

265438+ Although China achieved rapid development in the early 20th century, it still lags far behind many foreign countries. Many scholars want to go abroad for further study. Every year, many China students use their own efforts to knock on the door of Harvard, such as Wang Junfeng, Zhang Na, Zhang Xin, Lin Wenchu, Liu Qingsong, Liu Jing, Wang Wenchao and Ren Tao.

These eight people were admitted to Harvard in the same academic year, studied the same major, and even the dormitory was on the first floor. There are four joys in life, as Rong Zhai's four poems say: "After a long drought, meet an old friend, meet an old friend in a foreign land, spend the night in the bridal chamber, and be to be no.1. The throb in their blood makes them deeply attracted to each other, and they cherish the hard-won fate in other countries.

After years of struggle, everyone has made great achievements in America. Wang Junfeng even got a green card and settled in the United States. The remaining seven have also become professors at Harvard University, with high salaries, good treatment and a smooth life. In addition, their research field "strong magnetic field" is a key scientific research project in the United States, and the US government also lists them as key protected talents. Government subsidies alone are equivalent to the income of ordinary families for several years each year.

It stands to reason that life is so superior that happiness should be quite high, but they always feel that something is missing. Every night, a voice keeps calling them into their mother's arms. Rooted in the mainland and living in the United States, I always feel insecure. It was China who raised them, and their bones are forever engraved with "China people".

Strong magnetic field is a relatively broad field, such as electronic materials, energy response and so on. At that time, there was a certain gap between China and Europe. At that time, the country set up the Science Island in Hefei, Anhui Province, in order to break through the shackles of strong magnetic fields and improve the level of science and technology in all directions, but it was difficult to find top talents in this field.

As soon as Harvard Eight Musketeers heard that their motherland needed them, they immediately wanted to return to China. Especially when they see that the research on strong magnetic field in China has just started and there are loopholes everywhere, they can't hold back their joy. But it's easy to go to America, but it's hard to come back from America, not to mention top scientific research talents like them.

Remember the hardships of Qian Lao's return to China? Although the Eight Musketeers are not that difficult, it is clear that the United States does not want to let them go. At first, it was "lured" by various concessions such as salary increase, permanent green card and solving children's school problems. Later, it made them afraid at the expense of pressure. But Wang Junfeng eight people don't take these seriously.

"If you want to serve your country, why should you be born in Yumenguan?" Wanderers who want to go home can't stop them, even if they are in flames. After many twists and turns, they finally returned to the embrace of the motherland one after another and reunited at the Science and Technology Island on 20 16. This isolated paradise is their next place to work. They have settled on the island and devoted themselves to the scientific research of strong magnetic fields.

Facing the domestic scientific research environment that started late, Harvard Eight Musketeers are not discouraged. They first discussed and formulated the national standard and evaluation system of strong magnetic field, and later established the research team of tumor pharmacology of Chinese Academy of Sciences, which enabled China to have its own core technology for the first time. Up to now, the island has built the world's largest cancer kinase cell bank, and many specific drugs have begun mass production. It took them only five years to start from scratch.

In these five years, everyone often worked overtime, from researchers to security guards, and they all devoted themselves to their work with 100% enthusiasm. As soon as the light in the laboratory is on, it will be two or three days. No one complains that no one is tired. There is only one belief in everyone's heart: let China stand up, become strong and do its best to serve the country.
