Extended information
National heroes are divided into two types: narrow sense and broad sense. Under normal circumstances, people are more inclined to interpret them as national heroes in the narrow sense. In the narrow sense, a national hero is a person who has made outstanding contributions in the struggle against the aggression and oppression of foreign nations, including those who are not afraid of violence or sacrifice in the resistance struggle. The above definition is suitable for any nation and is not restricted by geography or historical time, nor by success or failure, or by the size of the person. Famous Chinese national heroes include Wei Qing, Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang, Yu Qian, Qi Jiguang, Shi Kefa, Zheng Chenggong, Lin Zexu, Deng Shichang, Wang Mingzhang, Zhang Zizhong, etc.
The definition of a national hero in a broad sense is: a person who has made outstanding contributions to the development and prosperity of the nation in times of peace and change. From Kangliang's reform, He Ziyuan's educational innovation, to Sun Yat-sen's democratic revolution, they all shine with the glory of national heroes.
Another example is an invention that benefits the nation or brings glory to the nation; a doctrine that contributes to the world and actors that bring glory to the nation can be called national heroes. Such as contemporary Chinese national heroes Qian Xuesen and Deng Jiaxian.
