Duke University returned to China.
When watching sci-fi movies, we often see that some protagonists have super powers, such as teleporting, traveling through time and space and so on. With these abilities, you can do many things that ordinary people can't. Among them, invisibility is a superpower that many people have imagined. However, do you know that someone has successfully developed an "invisibility cloak" and caused a sensation?

1983, Liu Ruopeng was born in an ordinary family in Xi, Shaanxi. Liu Ruopeng moved to Shenzhen to live with her parents because of their job transfer. But this does not affect Liu Ruopeng's study. He has been smart and studious since he was a child, and his academic performance has always been among the best. Excellent results in the senior high school entrance examination were admitted to the best local junior high school.

In this key junior high school, Liu Ruopeng quickly emerged as a new force. Not only did he keep the top grades in school, but he also won the first prize in the national mathematics competition and chemistry competition after class. He can be said to be a truly talented student. Because of her outstanding performance in school, Liu Ruopeng did not take the college entrance examination, and was directly sent to Zhejiang University.

During college, Liu Ruopeng's performance was as usual. Later, I received an invitation from the Graduate School of Duke University and promised to provide a full scholarship. After thinking, Liu Ruopeng chose to go to the United States for further study and enter the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering of Duke University.

In 2009, Liu Ruopeng, who was only 26 years old, published a literary theory about metamaterials in American Science magazine, which immediately caused a sensation in academic circles. Metamaterial is a kind of artificial material, which has special properties that are not found in nature, including some photonic crystals and bionic plastics.

But Liu Ruopeng's research is more advanced. He studied a kind of "super power" that many people yearn for-"invisibility cloak". Of course, this invisibility cloak is not what we see in film and television dramas, and it can be completely invisible. Its main function is to be invisible under various detection equipment, helping fighters, tanks and other weapons to be invisible under the eyes of the enemy.

The publication of this literary theory made Liu Ruopeng famous for a while. Some experts even predict that this technology can be used in the military within five years to avoid ships and tanks being discovered by radar detectors. Therefore, Liu Ruopeng received an invitation from the United States to lure him to stay in the United States after graduation with a high salary.

However, Liu Ruopeng resolutely refused this invitation and told the other party directly: I want to go back to China and fight for my motherland. When the United States learned of Liu Ruopeng's attitude, it stopped him, but Liu Ruopeng survived and returned to the motherland. At the end of 20 10, Liu Ruopeng returned to China with five overseas students to establish Shenzhen Guangqi.

After several years of development, the company has applied for more than 2,800 patents worldwide, accounting for 86% of the total number of patent applications in related fields. In addition, the company is in a leading position in the world in creating wireless cities based on metamaterials, wireless interconnection and industrialization in aerospace and other fields.

It is worth mentioning that in recent years, there are also some talents in China. After studying abroad, they are attracted by the high welfare abroad and finally choose to work in other countries. However, Liu Ruopeng rejected the "sugar-coated cannonball" of the United States and went through hardships to return to China, making its own contribution to the country. This spirit is worth learning from everyone in China. What do you think of this?
