When I saw the title of the book "You gave birth to me before I was born", I naturally thought of a poem in my mind: "You gave birth to me before I gave birth to you, and I gave birth to you before you were born. I wish I could be born on the same day, and I am with you every day." Hello."
This book has been on my desk for many days. I think it is a novel about love, and the age difference between the two people is very big. There shouldn't be any strong attraction.
I never expected that I accidentally flipped through a few pages yesterday, but it attracted me to read it in one breath. I read it until after one o'clock in the morning. During this period, I cried several times, and my heart was shocked for a long time. There is such pure and noble soul love in the world, and at the same time, I admire Yang Nansheng’s dedication to the country and scientific research.
"You Are Born Before Me" makes me firmly believe that there is such a beautiful love in this world, which is noble and pure. I really like this passage in the book.
The author of the book "You Are Born, I am Not Born" is Zhang Yanping, a senior reporter at Xinhua News Agency. In 1982, Zhang Yanping graduated from Shandong University with a Chinese degree. In 1984, she met the love of her life, Yang Nansheng, for the first time while reporting on the daily activities of the National People's Congress deputies. From then on, the story of their mutual friendship began. They had known each other for 29 years and been together for 27 years.
When we first met, one was a female reporter who had just been working for two years; the other was a scientist in his sixties.
In the seven years since Yang Nansheng's death, Zhang Yanping wrote 76 diaries in order to express her longing for her lover, use diaries to talk to her lover, and miss every moment of their time together.
"You were born but I was not born" is a memoir, dedicated by Zhang Yanping to the 100th anniversary of the birth of his lover Yang Nansheng. There were nearly 200 letters exchanged between them, talking about literature, poetry, music, etc. They wrote letters to each other calling each other lover, friend, wife/husband.
“Because an interview brought two hearts that were originally on different tracks closer together and sparked a spark of love. Through letters between the two places, two people with similar minds got to know each other and lived happily for 27 years. ”
Zhang Yanping was born in a military family in Shandong. She was a premature baby with developed perceptual thinking and introverted personality. She interviewed the two sessions for the first time and was responsible for interviewing the Shaanxi representative team.
When facing interviews, Yang Nansheng always smiled casually and said, "Oh, comrade reporter." He responded to the young reporter's questions without asking them, with the joking mentality of an elder teasing children, and from time to time he asked a few questions about the youth of the 1980s, and even handed Zhang Yanping half an apple.
Zhang Yanping was nervously confused. He was busy answering Yang Nansheng's questions and forgot about his interview task. When I went back, I was unable to write an interview manuscript that I was satisfied with.
It wasn’t until two days later that they met again at the entrance of the resident canteen. Yang Nansheng helplessly spread his hands and said humorously that the reporter was going to interview again. They talked as they walked, and they had many topics in common with each other, a lively collision between one soul and another.
One evening when they were walking together, Zhang Yanping recited Shu Ting's poems while walking, and Yang Nansheng looked at her affectionately.
After the Two Sessions, Yang Nansheng returned to Xi'an. They sent letters to each other. Yang Nansheng borrowed English poems to express his feelings of longing, and put them in the letters for Zhang Yanping to translate. The two had strong and suppressed emotions, and they often missed each other. Insomnia.
Yang Nansheng also had conflicts and entanglements. Mainly because he was older than Zhang Yanping and worried that he would not be able to accompany Zhang Yanping for long.
But separation is a kind of torture and pain. Only by loving them can you be happy. Two years later, when Yang Nansheng came to Beijing again for a meeting, they made it clear to each other. In the end, they overcame various difficulties and got married and lived together. Even if Zhang Yanping's father wanted to sever the relationship between father and daughter, she would not look back.
The book also mainly explains the great achievements of Chinese solid rocket scientist Yang Nansheng who dedicated his life to our country's aerospace industry. He advanced China's solid rocket industry seven or eight years and is known as "China's first solid rocket scientist." one person". He gave up the high-paying job abroad and resolutely returned to China to work hard for science and technology.
In the 1950s, Yang Nansheng worked at the Southwest Associated University in his early years, and obtained a doctorate from the University of Manchester in the UK. Returning to his motherland, he first served as the director of the materials laboratory at Changchun First Automobile Manufacturing Plant, participating in He developed and produced China's first Jiefang brand car and was later transferred to the Institute of Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences as a researcher and academic secretary.
The final push of the three-stage engine accurately sent the satellite into the predetermined orbit. At that time, the music "The East is Red" spread all over the world, thus creating a new era in my country's aerospace history.
At that time, Zhang Yanping, a junior high school student in Dongying, Shandong Province, cheered for her motherland to celebrate "Dongfanghong No. 1". She wrote a passionate poem and published it. She would not have thought that many years later she would have such a deep bond with Yang Nansheng, who was involved in the satellite.
? If the time and space of two people's lives are presented on a plane, it will be like a dreamlike time travel.
Many people remember that satellite - "Dongfanghong-1". However, the science of the Four Academies, which has put in huge efforts behind it, is not completely known to people.
Among them, one name must be mentioned - Yang Nansheng - the founder of the third-stage solid rocket motor of China's first artificial satellite.
Because such work requires confidentiality, Yang Nansheng’s family did not know that he was involved in the leadership of "Dongfanghong No. 1". ?
Yang Nansheng was born in a large family with many talents. His two uncles, younger brothers and sisters are all celebrities in the scientific community. One year, Zhang Yanping went to Xiamen for an interview. Yang Nansheng told her to go to Xiamen University to see the statue of his uncle Sa Bendong. Zhang Yanping went to Xiamen University and took many photos, as well as information about his second uncle Sa Bendong in the library.
She returned to Beijing and showed them to Yang Nansheng one by one. Yang Nansheng said to Zhang Yanping, my two uncles are both very talented, but their spiritual beliefs are completely different. The eldest uncle is pursuing his own fame; the second uncle is pursuing his own fame. It is the pursuit of dedication to the country. I inherited many aspects from my second uncle.
Yang Nansheng was once sent to Inner Mongolia and Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, where he conducted scientific research in difficult environments. Because of his outspoken personality and offending others, Yang Nansheng was locked up as an "academician" and "contributor". In addition, the reward for his merits was given to others.
According to the introduction of "Two Bombs and One Satellite" in the book, many people think it is too unfair that Yang Nansheng was not rated, and think that his lifetime achievements have been buried.
This book "You Are Not Born" is not a simple love story, it tells more about Yang Nansheng's life-long dedication to the aerospace industry. These stories were all learned by Zhang Yanping and the author of "The Biography of Yang Nansheng" through interviews after Yang Nansheng's death.
In an era of rudimentary facilities and a political background, Yang Nansheng only wanted to dedicate himself, never complaining, and never asking for any benefits from the organization.
There is a passage in the book where they were still living in a house that leaked when it rained in 2012. I found it incredible and sad. When Zhang Yanping called to complain, she was always pushed back. She even went to the petition department to no avail. At that time, Yang Nansheng was seriously ill, and the old house on the fifth floor was really inconvenient and leaked, which made people worried...
Until one month before Yang Nanshan's death in 2013, several of Yang Nansheng's elders Colleagues couldn't stand it, so they signed a petition to the central government for feedback. This time, there was a reply and instructions quickly. Yang Nansheng improved his housing conditions, settled his household registration in Beijing Aerospace (previously still in Xi'an) within 24 hours, and arranged to write "Yang Nansheng's Biography" at the same time.
The book was launched in 2018 and was written by the Solid Power Research Institute of the Aerospace Group. It won the Fifth Central Enterprise Spiritual Civilization Construction "Five One Project" Outstanding Work Award. Writing a biography is a treatment other than "two bombs and one satellite".
(Zhang Yanping previously petitioned for housing and medical issues in many places, but was delayed for more than 20 years)
When Yang Nansheng was 85 years old, he was in pain one night. Zhang Yanping hurriedly helped him to the hospital. The doctor said she didn't have enough money to be hospitalized. Zhang Yanping put all her bags on her body. She said that I would guarantee in the name of my family and press card that I would definitely pay for the medical expenses...
Although one month before Yang Nansheng's death, his medical relationship Only after I was finally transferred to Beijing did I enjoy the treatment I deserved. He worked hard all his life and never lived in a decent house. When they first got married, they only had a house of 50 square meters. Later, the house leaked when it rained. Because my relationship was not in Beijing, the "transfer order" was mysteriously blocked for more than 20 years, and many things were difficult to deal with.
God allowed Yang Nansheng to meet his soul mate Zhang Yanping when he was in his 60s. This must be the best gift and comfort for him! Yang Nansheng said, Xiao Pingping is my first treasure; music is the second. I won’t have anything left for you after I leave, so I’ll let these music records accompany you.
This book "You Are Not Born" displays the two of them's most private letters, notes, and daily messages to readers, allowing us to feel the deep love between the lines.
Although there is a thirty-year age gap between them, they are like-minded in terms of thoughts and values. There seems to be no complaints or quarrels, but only love for each other in both body and soul.
When Zhang Yanping was writing a manuscript at night, Yang Nansheng would bring her a cup of hot water, a piece of chocolate, kiss her hair, and then leave. Every evening they went for a walk hand in hand. Yang Nansheng once said to Zhang Yanping: Pingping, you are my little dewdrop.
One of Zhang Yanping’s press articles won the first prize, and her employer rewarded her with a half-month paid leave with her family members. She happily took 82-year-old Yang Nansheng to travel to Beidaihe, his favorite beach.
Yang Nansheng once said to Zhang Yanping, I hope that my organs will still be useful to society after my death, and I will donate them all. Zhang Yanping didn't agree. He waited for Zhang Yanping to go to work, went through the organ donation procedures himself, and wrote it down in the doctor's order.
The author Zhang Yanping wrote in the book, "There is a type of person in the world who, when he encounters something otherworldly that he cannot understand, will use his own value scale to turn the matter into his Only when a product in the grocery store conforms to his values ??can I feel at ease. I only have disdain for this kind of people."
Every noble character and soul should not be ignored; every noble character and soul should not be ignored. A sincere and pure love is worthy of blessing. Love cannot be measured by common sense.
Pay tribute to the great scientist Yang Nansheng! Salute to the beautiful and noble emotions! I also hope that those who endure and work hard to contribute to the motherland will receive the preferential treatment and respect they deserve. This book "You are born and I am not born" is worth collecting and reading.
