In June 1968, my country's aerospace industry was still developing continuously, and scientific researchers were busy with scientific research work.
They devoted their entire lives to work hard for the future of the country's aerospace industry.
On this day, the researchers continued to work as usual, and Yao Tongbin, the director of the research institute, has been busy.
However, when Yao Tongbin got off work and was walking home, an accident happened.
A group of young people blocked Yao Tongbin's way and started beating him without saying a word.
Yao Tongbin has been advising young people to calm down, but the excited young people did not listen to any explanation at all. They took out the steel pipe and attacked Yao Tongbin's head, obviously trying to kill him.
After the thugs left, only Yao Tongbin was left in the alley, who was lying in a pool of blood. By the time passers-by discovered him, he was already in a deep coma.
Because of excessive bleeding, Yao Tongbin eventually died of ineffective rescue. He was only 46 years old when he died. This incident even shocked Premier Zhou.
Yao Tongbin, as the founding father of my country's two bombs and one satellite, has made great contributions to the scientific research of the motherland.
He studied abroad in his early years. In the 1950s, he learned that the country needed scientific research talents and returned to China without hesitation to devote himself to the construction of the national aerospace industry.
The training of an outstanding scientific researcher often requires more than ten or twenty years to devote. Yao Tongbin, who is at the golden age, was actually beaten to death by a thug. It is really heartbreaking.
And those thugs were even sanctioned more than ten years after his death. They will eventually pay the price for the atrocities, but excellent scientific researchers will never come back.
study hard, government-sent overseas study
Yao Tongbin was born on September 3, 1922 in Huangtutang Town, Wuxi, Jiangsu Province. His ancestral home is Xiuning, Anhui.
His father moved his home to a small town in Wuxi, Jiangsu in that chaotic era.
At that time, Yao's father relied on the grain business to ensure the life of the family and sent Yao Tongbin to school.
12 years old, Yao Tongbin was admitted to Wuxi County Junior High School with excellent grades. After he finished his junior high school, his family could no longer pay for the tuition.
The sensible Yao Tongbin didn't want to make things difficult for his father, so he chose to drop out of school and do some small businesses to make money.
He sells cigarettes, matches and other groceries on the street every day, and also does a number of odd jobs. He insists on going to work even in the worst weather.
He wants to earn tuition through his own efforts. He has never given up on learning knowledge in the past two years since he dropped out of school. As long as he saves enough money, he must return to the classroom.
After several years of hard study, he won the first place in the province in the Jiangxi High School Student Union exam, which earned him a large scholarship. After
got the money, he had a college tuition fee. He took the entrance examinations of many universities, but was admitted to 7 universities at the same time because of his excellent grades.
Finally, he chose Southwest Jiaotong University . After the end of his four-year college career, he graduated with the highest grade in the school.
But at that time, my country's scientific research industry was still in its infancy and was in a blank state in many aspects.
In order to better carry out scientific research, Yao Tongbin has been preparing to study abroad, after all, "learning the skills of the barbarians to control the barbarians."
He works in research during the day every day, and after returning home, he begins to prepare for studying abroad, without fear of hardships day after day.
In October 1946, Yao Tongbin's efforts were rewarded and he was admitted as a public-funded international student.
You should know that in that era, the cost of studying abroad was very huge, and he could not afford a boat ticket alone. Now being able to study abroad for public expenses can undoubtedly save a lot of money.
In October 1947, Yao Tongbin began his study abroad journey. He came to the University of Birmingham, England to pursue a master's degree in the Department of Industrial Metallurgy.
Academic research is very hard, but he seems to be exhausted and his achievements are far beyond others. His efforts made the mentor amazed. This Chinese student is indeed a good seedling.
After graduation, he started to pursue a doctorate again. In 1951, he obtained his doctorate from the University of Birmingham, England. After
, he participated in many academic research in the UK and became the most shining new star in the industry.
He began to understand Germany's industrial development, observe Germany's latest scientific research results, and put all the knowledge he learned in the past into practice.
Two years later, he joined the Communist Party of China in Germany and Switzerland.
Although he was in a foreign country, he did not forget his country. When the country needed him, he returned to the embrace of his motherland without hesitation.
resolutely returned to China and devoted himself to the aerospace industry of the motherland in
In the past, because the country was in a state of resisting foreign enemies and civil wars, it was difficult to have the energy to engage in scientific research even if it was determined.
The country has finally settled down. If the country is not disturbed by foreign enemies, research on this aspect must be developed, but our country's research on this aspect is too poor.
Among the hundreds of millions of people in the vast country, there are too few people engaged in the scientific research industry, and there are even fewer scientists.
However, national aerospace research can no longer be delayed. The country began to call on scientific researchers who are developing overseas, hoping that they can return to the embrace of the motherland and devote themselves to the ranks of building the country.
At that time, he had internship in the Federal German metallurgical factory and began to investigate and research the scientific and technological and industrial production situation in Germany.
When he learned that the country was calling on scientific research talents to return to China, he immediately chose to resign, but Germany was unwilling to miss this talent.
They tried to keep Yao Tongbin many times and offered extremely attractive conditions, wanting to keep him for their own use.
In their opinion, Germany has a better scientific research environment and better treatment, and Yao Tongbin has no reason to refuse.
But they do not understand the feelings in the bones of Chinese people. Even though they have traveled thousands of miles, their hearts still care about the country at all times.
Yao Tongbin rejected the various preferential treatments offered by Germany and returned to the embrace of the motherland in September 1957. He also officially became a member of the Communist Party of China .
A few months before he assigned his job, he visited his motherland that he had been away from for ten years.
When he left, the country was still in chaos. Unexpectedly, the new China developed so rapidly after only eight or nine years of its founding.
The country is in a vibrant stage, and the people are full of energy. The crowds are surging on the streets, and their smiles are no longer as bad as the old era.
In January 1958, Yao Tongbin was assigned to work at the First Branch of the Fifth Research Institute of the Ministry of National Defense. The scientific research environment at that time was too poor, and the aerospace aspect was even more blank.
But since Yao Tongbin came, he began to actively lead other personnel to find suitable materials everywhere and run around.
A talent engaged in scientific research, in order to find materials, he starts to flip through the local garbage dump every time he goes to a city.
This made the garbage station personnel very puzzled, and they thought that the young talent in front of them was so excited that they would come to grab the garbage with them.
In 1960, China's Aerospace Materials Research Office was expanded into the Aerospace Materials Research Institute, and Yao Tongbin was the director.
He has formulated research directions many times based on his own experience. He has taken the lead in accordance with the requirements of materials to be the first, and has arranged staff to comprehensively study the difficulties in aerospace materials.
At that time, Yao Tongbin had already started his family and had three lovely daughters under his knees, but because he was busy with the aerospace industry, he rarely went home.
He devotes himself to the research of aerospace materials every day. Even when he comes home occasionally, he still takes the materials to check until late at night, and rarely has time to accompany his daughters.
His wife Peng Jieqing is also very considerate of her husband's hardships. Peng Jieqing takes care of her three daughters alone and never lets him interfere in family trivial matters.
Yao Tongbin led the staff of the institute to study day and night, and finally studied the most important material in the aerospace industry, " high-temperature brazing alloy ". Under the leadership of Yao Tongbin, the subsequent research institute of
has carried out more than 500 research projects and developed domestic No. 1 and No. 2 manganese-based brazing materials.
He also played an important guiding role in the design, material selection and manufacturing of rocket components.
Such a great scientist is dedicated to his work and has always maintained a simplicity in his life style.
He always wears a few pieces of clothes back and forth in daily clothes. Only when attending important occasions will he take out the formal clothes he had purchased abroad. After the monthly salary of
, he first gave his living expenses to his wife, and the rest was used to support the poor students he brought.
He pays great attention to cultivating talents. He knows that the development of the motherland's aerospace industry cannot be separated from the excellent next generation.
Yao Tongbin used his own skills to become an example for all the staff of the institute. They are willing to work with this director to overcome difficulties and strengthen the aerospace industry.
However, they never thought that the beloved director would die at the hands of the thugs.
was attacked by a thug, and the talent died
On June 8, 1968, Yao Tongbin worked in the institute as usual.
He rarely got off work on time that day, so he promised his wife to go home to have dinner with his three daughters.
However, when he walked into an alley, he was blocked by several young men with cruel faces. These young men had stopped Yao Tongbin many times and beat him unilaterally.
This is incredible to modern people. Will scientists who contribute to national scientific research be beaten?
But in that special period, Yao Tongbin's cultural identity and study abroad experience became a mistake in the eyes of people with ulterior motives.
These young people ignored Yao Tongbin's dedication to scientific research work and had punched Yao Tongbin several times before.
Yao Tongbin is busy with scientific research every day and feels that he is walking and sitting upright. He thinks that one day these young people will wake up, but they haven't waited for that day to come.
After several thugs punched and kicked Yao Tongbin again, they seemed to feel confused. They picked up the prepared steel pipe and beat Yao Tongbin.
As the thugs move away, the bloody life of Yao Tongbin in the alley is constantly passing away.
He wanted to go home and have a meal with his family and continue to contribute to the aerospace research in his motherland, but he had no chance again.
Yao Tongbin's wife Peng Jieqing has been waiting for her husband to come back to have dinner at home, but she couldn't see her husband until the food was cold.
She thought her husband was working overtime day and night again, and was about to arrange for her daughters to have dinner first, a fierce slap at the door came from the door.
Peng Jieqing learned from the neighbor that her husband was attacked on the way home. She immediately entrusted her daughter to the neighbor to take care of her, but when she arrived at the hospital, she saw her husband's body.
Peng Jieqing cried bitterly for her husband's death. She lost her husband, her daughters lost her father, and the country lost a talent.
After calming down, Peng Jieqing decided to seek justice for her husband. She wrote the cause of her husband's death and the story in a letter, which came to Premier Zhou through many sources.
Premier Zhou sighed for Yao Tongbin's death after reading the letter. He asked for a thorough investigation of this matter and had to give the Yao family an explanation.
But the situation was complicated at that time, and the thug even ran away after learning that the matter was serious. For a long time, the murderer was not killed.
Peng Jieqing refused to give up and insisted on seeking justice for her husband. While raising her daughter, she kept writing letters and complaining while growing up.
Until the turbulent situation in 1976 had passed, and Peng Jieqing was more active in running for Yao Tongbin's death in vain.
This time justice finally came, and the central government finally arrested the murderer after multiple investigations.
The murderer confessed to his crimes that year. They brutally killed Yao Tongbin because of ignorance and ignored human lives and laws, and also caused significant losses to the country's scientific research and development.
Beijing Intermediate People's Court made a verdict on the murderer, and the main culprit Yu was sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment 15 years in prison, and the accomplice Gao was sentenced to 12 years in prison.
Peng Jieqing finally upheld justice for her deceased husband Yao Tongbin, and her daughter grew up and became a talented person under her training.
Yao Tongbin made great contributions to the development of my country's aerospace industry. The country posthumously named him a revolutionary martyr and even awarded the medal of merit in the Two Bombs and One Satellite in 1999.
Yao Tongbin's life was a magnificent life. He was obsessed with scientific research and had already made some achievements in studying abroad for many years.
But when the country needed it, it decided to give up everything abroad and return to the ranks of building the motherland's aerospace industry.
In that era, the aerospace industry could have taken a step forward under his leadership, but due to an accident, his brilliant life came to an abrupt end.
If it weren't for the solid foundation he laid in the past, my country's aerospace industry would not have developed so rapidly.
Although he has passed away for many years, his achievements and contributions to the aerospace industry have always been remembered in our hearts.
The Chinese people will never forget this great scientist, he will always live in the hearts of the people.
