Chen Jingrun, a famous mathematician, made great contributions to overcoming Goldbach's conjecture and founded the famous "Chen Theorem", so many people affectionately called him "the prince of mathematics". But who would have thought that his achievement originated from a story?
1937, diligent Chen Jingrun was admitted to Huaying College in Fuzhou. At this time, during the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Professor Shen Yuan, director of the Department of Aeronautical Engineering in Tsinghua University, returned to Fujian to attend the funeral, unwilling to stay in his hometown because of the war. Several universities got the news and wanted to invite Professor Shen to give lectures. He declined the invitation.
As he is an alumnus of Huaying, he came to this middle school to teach mathematics to his classmates in order to report to his alma mater. One day, Teacher Shen Yuan told us a story in math class: "A Frenchman discovered an interesting phenomenon 200 years ago: 6=3+3, 8=5+3, 10=5+5, 12=5+7, 28=5+23. Every even number greater than 4 can be expressed as the sum of two odd numbers. Euler said: Although I can't prove it, I am sure this conclusion is correct.
It is like a beautiful light ring, shining with dazzling brilliance in front of us not far away. ..... "Chen Jingrun absorbed. Therefore, Chen Jingrun took a keen interest in this wonderful problem. In his spare time, he likes going to the library. He not only read the counseling books in middle schools, but also eagerly read the textbooks of mathematics and physics courses in these universities. Therefore, he got the nickname "bookworm". Interest is the first teacher. It is such a mathematical story that aroused Chen Jingrun's interest and his diligence and made him a great mathematician.
2. Bill Gates
Bill Gates is the chairman and chief software architect of Microsoft. Microsoft is a global leader in personal computing and business computing software, services and Internet technology. In the last fiscal year ending June 2008, Microsoft's revenue reached $62 billion, and it operated in 78 countries and regions. The total number of employees in the world exceeds 965,438+0,000.
Gates was born in 1955, grew up in Seattle, and has two sisters. Their father, William H. Gately, is a lawyer in Seattle. Gates' late mother, Maguette, was a teacher, a director of Washington University and the chairman of United International.
Gates attended a public elementary school and a private lakeside middle school in Seattle. There, he discovered his interest in software and started computer programming at the age of 13. From 65438 to 0973, Gates was admitted to Harvard University. Now steve ballmer, CEO of Microsoft, and I have become good friends. At Harvard, Gates developed a basic programming language for mitaltair, the first microcomputer.
In his junior year in college, Gates left Harvard and devoted all his energy to Microsoft, which he and his childhood friend paulallen founded in 1975. Guided by the belief that computers will become the most important tool in every home and office, they began to develop software for personal computers. Gates' foresight and his foresight in personal computers have become the key to the success of Microsoft and the software industry. Under the leadership of Gates, Microsoft constantly develops and improves software technology to make software easier to use, more economical and more interesting.
3. Hua
19 10, Hua was born in Jintan, a small county in Jiangsu province. When I was a child, my family was poor, and my father opened a small grocery store in a small town to buy silk for others. The family lived a semi-starvation life. When Hua was in junior high school, he had a special interest in mathematics. His teacher, Wang Weike, attaches great importance to this clever boy and often tutors him alone and gives him some difficult problems to do, which benefits him a lot.
After finishing junior high school in Jintan Middle School, Qiu Luogeng had to drop out of school to help run the restaurant business in his father's small grocery store because his family couldn't afford his schooling. But this young man who loves mathematics, although standing in front of the counter, has been thinking about mathematics. Teacher Wang Weike lent him several math textbooks: a big algebra, an analytic geometry and a calculus. Hua followed these dumb teachers into the door of advanced mathematics.
/kloc-at the age of 0/8, with the help of teacher Wang Weike, Hua went to Jintan Middle School as an accountant and was responsible for school affairs. He once recalled the hard life at that time: "In addition to the heavy affairs of the school, I have to help manage the affairs of the small shop sooner or later. I can't go home until around 8 o'clock every night. After cleaning up the account of the small shop, you can go to learn math, often late at night. "
Hua studied hard in poverty and illness, not only reading widely, but also being diligent in independent thinking and daring to challenge authority. /kloc-when he was 0/9 years old, he found that a university professor had written a wrong paper. He wrote his own opinion in an article entitled "Why the quintic equation solution of Su Jiaju's algebra can't be established", which was published in the second year of Shanghai Science magazine. Subsequently, Hua successively published several mathematical papers, signed "Jintan People".
4. Edison
Edison is a world-famous inventor. He is an American. When I was a child, because my family was poor, I only went to school for three months, and I started selling newspapers at the age of eleven or twelve. He loves science and often saves money to buy science books, newspapers and chemicals. The tools of his experiment are some bottles and cans picked out from the garbage.
When Edison 12 years old, he sold newspapers on the train. There is a special compartment on the train for passengers to smoke, and the conductor agrees that he will occupy a corner there. He moved chemicals and bottles there, sold out newspapers and did all kinds of interesting experiments. Once, a bottle of white phosphorus was knocked down by a sudden vibration while the train was running. Phosphorus burns as soon as it meets air.
Many people came to put out the fire with Edison. The conductor was so angry that he threw all Edison's experiments out and slapped him hard that he was deaf in one ear. Edison's determination to study science never wavered. He scrimped and saved, and started the chemical experiment again.
On one occasion, sulfuric acid burned his clothes; On another occasion, nitric acid almost blinded his eyes. He was not frightened by the danger, but stubbornly did the experiment.
Edison tried to produce electric light. I don't know how many experiments he made before he found a filament with low price and long life. He often works in the laboratory for dozens of hours. He was so tired that he lay on the experimental platform and slept for a while. After such unremitting efforts, he finally found a suitable filament and invented the electric light. Later, Edison invented the film and the phonograph. He invented 1000 kinds of things in his life.
5. Schwarzenegger
More than forty years ago, a poor boy in his teens grew up in a slum, and his body was thin, but he decided in his diary that he wanted to be the president of the United States when he grew up. But how can we realize such a grand ambition? At a young age, after several days and nights of thinking, he worked out such a series of chain goals.
To be the president of the United States, you must first be the governor of the United States → run for the governor, get the support of strong financial backing → get the support of the consortium, must be integrated into the consortium → it is best to gather a rich and powerful woman → marry a rich and powerful woman, you must become a celebrity → The quick way to become a celebrity is to become a movie star → practice your body and masculinity before becoming a movie star.
With this in mind, he began to work step by step. One day, when he saw the famous gymnastics chairman Kuhl, he thought bodybuilding was a good idea to keep healthy, so he became interested in bodybuilding. He began to practice bodybuilding hard and persistently, and he longed to be the strongest man in the world. Three years later, with developed muscles and sculptural figure, he began to become a bodybuilder.
In the next few years, he included bodybuilders from Europe, the world, the world and the Olympic Games. At the age of 22, he entered Hollywood. In Hollywood, he spent ten years using his achievements in sports to show an indomitable and indomitable tough guy image. Finally, he became famous in the entertainment circle. When his film career was in full swing, his girlfriend's family finally accepted the "black-faced cultivator" after nine years of love. His girlfriend is the niece of the famous President Kennedy.
Married life has been loving for more than ten years. He and his wife had four children and established a typical family of "five good". In 2003, at the age of 57, he retired from the film industry and turned to politics, successfully running for the governor of California. He is Arnold Schwarzenegger. His experience reminds people of the proverb: We can go as far as our thoughts go.
