Chapter 70 Chapter 69 "We Victorious"

"Professor Ding Jieqiong's grandparents and maternal grandparents are all patriotic overseas Chinese. They joined the League, followed Mr. Sun Yat-sen, and supported the revolutionary cause of overthrowing the Qing Dynasty. Her only uncle died in the Guangzhou Uprising and was buried in Huanghuagang." Zhou Enlai told Capital Science The world introduced the family background of the female scientist, "Her father, Ding Hong, was a pioneer of modern Chinese music. When he was studying in France, he met female dancer Jiang Yuan and they got married. They loved their homeland and returned to China several times to live, perform and run schools. Qing struggle. Their only daughter, Ding Jieqiong, was born in Wuxi in 1910.”

In January 1927, Ding Hong and Jiang Yuan resolutely gave up the family business and art they had created in Europe, returned to China, and participated in the second and third armed uprisings of Shanghai workers.The uprising workers sang Ding Hong's "Huangpu River Chant", "Wharf Ballad", "Red Flag Fluttering" and "Shanghai Workers' March" and stood firm in factories, docks and warehouses, and launched an attack on the reactionary warlord army.After the failure of the Great Revolution, Ding Hong and Jiang Yuan were arrested in January 1928 and died in February 1931.They regard death as home, showing lofty integrity.

The young Ding Jieqiong lived alone through the most difficult time in his life. He was admitted to Jinling University in 1929 and graduated from the Department of Physics of Jinling University in 1934. In the same year, he was admitted to study abroad at public expense and entered the California Institute of Technology in the United States.Ding Jieqiong came to the fore after going to the United States, showing a high degree of talent, and achieved a series of achievements. She was awarded a doctorate at the age of 26.Premier Zhou Enlai went on to say: "From the 'Ding's magnetic cloud chamber' and the 'Ding's coefficient table' in the field of experimental physics, the 'Ding's proportional counter tube' in the field of applied physics to the 'Ding's model' in the field of theoretical physics ——This series of inventions, creations and theories named after Ding Jieqiong is a manifestation of the wisdom of the Chinese nation and Chinese women, and an outstanding contribution of modern China to human science."

There was warm applause in the venue.Three hundred pairs of excited eyes focused on Professor Ding Jieqiong's dignified face. Professor Ding Jieqiong experienced "World War II" on the other side of the ocean. More than 500,000 people participated in the "Manhattan Project" in the United States, which developed the world's first batch of atomic bombs, including 150,000 scientists and engineers. Professor Ding Jieqiong became the only one among them who did not have American or British nationality.She worked hard, solved a series of theoretical and technical problems, and created "nuclear explosion aerodynamics".The use of the atomic bomb brought the war to an early end by more than a year. Millions of American soldiers and tens of millions of Japanese were spared sacrifices, and millions of military and civilian casualties were reduced on the Chinese battlefield...

Ding Jieqiong listened, her heart was surging.The scene fourteen years ago is vivid in my mind.After the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, she followed China and the world from Alamos.At that time, her favorite thing to do was to pour herself a glass of red wine, put several radios around, and listen to broadcasts in various languages ​​at the same time, but mainly listened to broadcasts from China and English.The whole world is broadcasting the same message: Japan has finally surrendered, and we have finally won!She often sits alone, resisting the pounding of her heart, and letting the hot tears trickle down her cheeks into the glass; she just listens to the radio and sips the wine mixed with tears...

A radio station recalled President Roosevelt's words: "If there is no China, if China is defeated, just imagine how many Japanese divisions will be transferred to other battlefields? The Japanese can easily capture Australia, occupy India, and sweep the war in the shortest possible time. Middle East!" Another radio station made a footnote to Roosevelt's words: In the fourteen years since the "September 18th Incident", China's military and civilian casualties have reached more than 30 million people. During the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War since the "July 7th Incident", the Chinese battlefield contained 60% of the Japanese Army and 50% of the Air Force.A total of 2.28 million Japanese soldiers were killed or wounded on the Chinese battlefield; at the end of the war, 1.14 million Japanese troops surrendered on the Chinese battlefield. The nation is the nation that suffered the most and made the greatest contribution in the world anti-fascist war!

Since September 1945, Hideki Tojo and a large number of Class A war criminals have been arrested one after another. On January 19, 1946, the International Military Tribunal for the Far East was established.On February 16, it was determined that the court would be composed of judges from nine countries including China, the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union.On March 19, Mei Ruao, a Chinese judge of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, flew from Shanghai to Tokyo to "clear blood debts."

Ding Jieqiong kept listening to the radio, and kept replaying the tape sent by Hull: "Joan, my eyes turn to the scope and the timer-now, at 9:15:17, I move my eyes from the timer to the timer. Scope, extending right hand to the bomb bay to control the handbrake - Joan, I'm already gripping the handbrake tightly. Joan, I'm pulling the handbrake down hard! Joan, you said it well: 'Evil comes around' Joan, the bomb bay opened with a bang..." Immediately afterwards, Hurricane roared like mountains and seas: "For the Pearl Harbor Incident, for the Nanjing Massacre!"

"We have a group of outstanding scientists. However, among them, only Professor Ding Jieqiong has directly participated in the 'Manhattan Project'." Zhou Enlai raised two thick eyebrows, and his eyes were piercing; Ding Jieqiong once made up her mind to serve the motherland as an outstanding physicist and in the same way. More than ten years later, she realized this ambition and became the world's top scientist. She used her intelligence to serve the motherland and China The nation has won the honor; her hard work and scientific innovations in the "Manhattan Project" have made outstanding contributions to the great victory of the human anti-fascist war and the final victory of the Chinese people's war of resistance against Japan!" As soon as Zhou Enlai finished speaking, the audience stood up automatically, and the warm applause and cheers were like thunder rolling. In the corner at the back of the venue, Little Xingxing wiped and wiped again and again, but she couldn't wipe away her tears no matter what.Suddenly, she saw Zhu Ertong walking along the aisle, looking around... "Uncle Zhu." The girl called out. "Hey, you are here." Zhu Ertong hugged Su Guanlan's shoulder from behind, his voice trembling, "Old Su, look, look, it's Sister Qiong, it's Sister Qiong! I didn't expect it to be Miss Joan!" Professor Su Guanlan was probably the only person in the audience who did not get up.In fact, he was more excited than anyone else.He grabbed Zhu Ertong's hand and said nothing; he just closed his eyes tightly and let the tears flow down his cheeks... Little Xingxing was stunned.She looked at Uncle Zhu and Teacher Su, not understanding what was happening in front of her. "But," Zhou Enlai paused for a moment, his expression and tone became serious, "Professor Ding Jieqiong was persecuted after the war and lost his freedom." This is something Little Xingxing never dreamed of!None of the participants thought of it.The venue fell silent, and everyone wiped away their tears and stared blankly at the rostrum.Zhou Enlai slightly raised his arms to make a gesture, and everyone sat down in silence.Little Xingxing noticed that Teacher Su opened his eyes at this moment, staring at the female scientist on the rostrum with a face full of surprise...
