The four hundred and fortieth chapters sense of mission
"Lao Xie, Lao Zhou, do you have a sense of mission?"
Huang Kun suddenly asked.
"A sense of mission?"
The two were puzzled.
"Let's go! Lao Xie, you are sixty-five years old this year, Lao Zhou, you should be sixty-six years old. I am one year older than you. We are both half buried in the earth. I thought this is how life is.
But with the birth of SMIC, the country realized the importance of the electronics industry and handed over the country's talents to us.
They are all the future of the country! They are all the treasures of the country. What we old guys have to do now is to train them and let them successfully take over our baton. We will never see the day when the country will be prosperous and strong.
But hopefully they can see that day.
At that time, you and I will be happy even under the drinking fountain, because they are all our disciples, and we have a share of credit for their achievements. Isn't this the greatest achievement in our lives?"
Huang Kun is a steady person, but he is also extremely excited at this time. It seems that he has seen that a powerful country is about to be born.
"Sense of mission...!"
These three words echoed in Liu Lang's mind for a long time.
Yes! Among the first-generation scientists in this country, such as Zhou Ming and Xiong Huaizhi, this strong sense of mission has always run through their lives. They have also struggled their whole lives to follow their mission and built a country with nothing but nothing into a country with great resources.
A country with industrial, agricultural and technological foundations.
Even though the country's current economy is still not worth mentioning in the eyes of Westerners, you must know that the country has been in the flames of war since the mid-19th century, with internal strife constantly surrounded by foreign enemies. The long-term war has made the country's national industries unable to develop at all.
development, especially the war with the island country that year, all the country's industrial base was destroyed, let alone machinery, even the simplest daily necessities could not be manufactured by oneself.
When the People's Republic of China was first founded, the country's financial resources were really clean. Steel plants, power plants, and mines were all the most basic industries that had to be rebuilt. Without these, how could the country's more than 400 million people live?
Even under the condition of having nothing, in just five or six years, the country managed to create a solid industrial foundation and build large-scale steel plants. In just two or three years, the country's annual steel output soared from less than one million tons to
Five to six million tons; thermal power plants were built, basically all towns and cities were electrified, coal mines and oil fields were constantly discovered, and the hat of an oil-poor country was suddenly taken off. In addition, atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs were successfully exploded, and artificial satellites were successfully launched into the sky. These achievements
The foundation of a great country has been revealed.
How did the countless inspiring achievements come about? They relied on the vast number of workers; they relied on the unified decision-making of the national leadership, but most importantly, they relied on scientists like Xiong Huaizhi, Zhou Ming, Huang Kun, and Xie Xide.
The broad masses of workers can be mobilized, and decisions from the top of the country can be easily issued. But without scientists, those achievements will undoubtedly be just castles in the air.
Liu Lang always believes that the most fundamental driving force for the development of human society is science and technology, among which science leads technology and leads the entire humankind to move forward.
Regardless of the Qin emperors, Han Wu emperors, Peter the Great and Napoleon emperors in the world, they are called great men and have established achievements that ordinary people cannot achieve in a few lifetimes. But in Liu Lang's eyes, the achievements of great men may not be as good as those of others.
How much stronger are famous scientists?
The achievements of great men belong to a country or a nation, but the achievements of great scientists sometimes belong to the entire human race. Just like Einstein, his achievements are even greater than those of so-called great men. If human beings will one day leave the earth and head towards
universe, then Einstein's achievements will become a bright light for mankind when facing the endless deep space.
This is why Liu Lang respects scientists so much, especially the older generation of scientists in China who have more to do. While studying scientific theories, they are also responsible for popularizing science, training new people, teaching workers, and preparing equipment.
Scientists have their work to do, engineers have their work to do, and even guest workers often go to the front line to do it themselves. This kind of hands-on work is much better than those "new era" scientists more than 20 years later. Those people who have something to do are students.
, they should take the credit themselves, and they are fully worthy of the title of "called beast" given to them by the majority of people.
It stands to reason that after 20 or 30 years, the country will become rich, with huge improvements in all aspects, and its economic strength has reached the second level in the world. But why can't the level of scientific research be improved in line with its economic strength? There are many scholars.
There is no sense of mission of the older generation of scientists.
If these people could have the same sentiments as Huang Kun, Xiong Huaizhi and Zhou Ming, the country's technology would have been improved long ago.
It has been five years since Liu Lang was reborn. Returning to the 1980s made him feel a lot of discomfort, a closed country, and limited information. This is simply torture for a person who has experienced the mobile Internet era, but he saw it with his own eyes.
When it comes to the feelings of the older generation of scientists, they have no concept of personal interests in their minds, only national honor; they never want to benefit themselves.
, will only develop for the country. This lofty belief deeply moved Liu Lang. Liu Lang asked himself, if he were in the position of the other party, he would never reach the state of these old scientists. Of course, future generations have not experienced it.
In the lives of the older generation, I don’t know how important the word country is in their hearts, but when it comes to their own careers, future generations are still far inferior to them.
The times are developing rapidly. In just twenty years, the entire country and even the entire world have undergone earth-shaking changes. It can be said that if people today travel to twenty years later, they must think that they have arrived in another world. But the times
Development has also caused many people to lose their feelings. In this world, those who achieve great things must have feelings. This is true for scientists and politicians. The feelings of scientists are to explore the world.
The secret of the whole human beings; the feelings of politicians are for the benefit of the country and the nation. Even if they are an ordinary person, maybe they do not have the big ambitions of scientists and politicians, but as long as they have the feelings of being kind to others and working hard, then
He will also be a noble person. Without feelings, this person will have no soul. If scientists and politicians have no feelings, the country will have no hope.
"The feelings of the older generation cannot be cut off here, they must be continued!"
This is what Liu Lang is thinking at the moment.
Old scientists such as Huang Kun, Xie Xide and Zhou Ming don't think so much now. They just want to contribute all their income to the country while they can still work and train these young people.
