In the history of human progress, those great figures will always leave their deepest footprints:
Such as Albert Einstein!
Since this great scientist came to China for their honeymoon trip with his new wife, his cousin Elsa, he suddenly found that he could not go back.
Not a seizure.
The Chinese were very warm to him and his wife. No matter what they needed, whether they raised it or not, the Chinese would always know in advance and get it done for them in the shortest possible time without them having to worry at all.
.....
However, it seems to be too enthusiastic...
Einstein originally thought that the Chinese invited them to China through his new wife just for his knowledge and achievements in science and technology, but he gradually discovered that it was not the case.
The Chinese never mentioned the topic of letting him conduct scientific research in China, nor did they say anything related to science at all. In their view, the only thing they wanted to do was to accompany Albert Einstein and Elsa
The couple just wanted to take a good tour of China's scenic spots...
For a whole year, Einstein did nothing but play. For a great scientist, it is really intolerable to waste precious time on play. It is simply a waste of life.
He proposed several times to resume scientific research work, but the Chinese people who accompanied him all told him with smiles that there are many places to visit in China, and there is no need to rush for a while. Only by completely relaxing your body and mind can you better devote yourself to science.
Under research...
He asked to return to the country several times, but the staff still told him with smiles that their job was to accompany Mr. Albert Einstein on his travels. As for when to return to the country, that was a matter for the president to consider. At the same time, he spoke sincerely.
Tell Mr. Einstein that they are just office workers. Please do not embarrass them under any circumstances...
Everywhere the Einsteins passed by, local officials showed great enthusiasm. The grand and solemn scenes were something the Einsteins had never seen before in their lives.
During this year, they saw beautiful scenery that they will never forget and ate delicious food that they will never forget. But in Mr. Einstein's opinion, he wasted a whole year...
When they finally arrived in Nanjing, China, and met the President Wang Hengyue who tried his best to invite them, Einstein couldn't wait to put forward the idea of returning to China. But Wang Hengyue immediately said: "Why are you so anxious, Mr. Albert?"
?China is very big and there are many places to visit.”
Einstein smiled bitterly: "Yes, China is big and beautiful. But as a scientist, traveling is the most time-wasting thing, so I must go back. There is still a lot of research work waiting for me.
I'll do it."
"You have always wanted to be a citizen of the world..." Wang Hengyue did not answer him immediately, but said slowly: "I remember. When you were young, one day the Kaiser's army passed through the streets of Munich. Curious
People flocked to the window to cheer and cheer, and the children yearned for the soldiers' shiny helmets and neat footsteps. But you were so scared that you hid, he both looked down on and was afraid of these 'war monsters'. And asked
His mother took him to a country where he would never turn into such a monster. When you were in middle school, you gave up your German citizenship, but you did not apply for Italian citizenship. You want to be a citizen of the world without any attachments. War
Afterwards, you tried to base your dream of world peace on reality, right?"
Einstein nodded. He found that the Chinese president knew him very well...
"As a citizen of the world, why should you stick to one place?" Wang Hengyue said calmly: "Germany, Italy, the United States, or any other place. It should be the same to you. Well, I must admit to you. From you
From the first day you came to China, I have prepared everything for you. I hope you can stay in my country..."
He said it calmly and calmly, because from the first moment he invited the Einsteins to China, he had no intention of sending this outstanding genius scientist back.
If a great talent cannot be used by oneself, then it must not be used by the enemy.
This is Wang Hengyue's somewhat "rogue" thinking.
No matter what you think, this is what I think!
Einstein was silent there. If this request had been made to the other party when he had just come to China, then Einstein was sure that he would have refused without hesitation, but now it was different.
For a whole year, Einstein felt China's great enthusiasm, friendliness and hospitality. Although in Einstein's view, he wasted a whole year of scientific research time, he got to know this country carefully and deeply.
.
Wang Hengyue stared at Einstein with a smile and was not in a hurry to ask him to express his position.
Einstein pondered there for a long time: "Why should I stay here?"
"First, you are a 'world citizen'. Second, China has everything you need. Third, I urgently hope you can stay." Wang Hengyue said calmly: "I just said that I have prepared it for you.
Now you have everything you need, research laboratory, scientific research assistants, funds, everything... In short, you will not see the war here, all you have to do is to put all your energy into it.
Put it into the scientific research that interests you..."
Einstein continued to remain silent.
This is a very tempting condition.
"You love peace, and I also love peace..." Wang Hengyue told a lie that made him blush: "I don't want to see war in the world, and I hope to use all scientific and technological inventions for
To the progress of human civilization, I have built a large number of scientific research laboratories in many places in China..."
As he spoke, he took a few pages and handed them to Einstein: "Look, this is a list of scientists from various countries who came to China to conduct scientific research and the research they have done so far."
Einstein took it and only glanced at it. His face showed his experience. He couldn't believe it: "Mr. President, please forgive me for being rude, but is this all true?"
"It's true." Wang Hengyue said very seriously: "Some of them are in Nanjing, some are in Shanghai, and a large number of them are in Sichuan. It is the best large-scale experiment in the world in terms of design and environment.
In the room, you can definitely go and visit..."
"I think maybe I can stay in China for a few more years." Einstein shrugged: "But I hope you can fulfill your promise."
"I will." Wang Hengyue stood up and said extremely seriously.
He breathed a long sigh of relief, finally settling his worries and finally leaving Einstein here.
His ingenuity and all scientific inventions can only be used by China from now on!
"Heng Shuai, Nikola Tesla has arrived in Nanjing."
Chen Lifu walked in and whispered.
Wang Hengyue's face showed joy. Nikola Tesla was a great scientist who was by no means inferior to people like Einstein and Edison!
He made countless inventions in his life, and he brought Edison a huge amount of money, but he remained poor all his life.
In 1884, Tesla set foot on American soil for the first time and came to New York. Except for a letter of recommendation written by his former employer, Charles Batchelor, he had almost nothing. This letter was written to Thomas Edison.
Mentioned in: "I know there are two great people, you are one of them, the other is this young man."
Edison hired Tesla and arranged for him to work at the Edison Machinery Company. Tesla began to design simple electrical appliances for Edison. He made rapid progress and soon solved some of the company's very difficult problems. Tesla was fully responsible.
Redesign of the Edison Company's DC motor.
In 1919, Edison promised him an astonishing $50,000 if he completed improvements to the motor and generator. Tesla's work lasted for nearly a year, and he redesigned almost the entire generator.
The Edison Company gained huge profits and new patent ownership.
When Tesla asked Edison for $50,000, Edison broke his promise by replying: "Tesla, you don't understand our American humor."
The amount of this bonus was equivalent to the company’s founding capital, and with Tesla’s salary of $18 per week at the time, he would have had to work for 53 years to earn it!
He resigned when Tesla's request for a raise to $25 a week was rejected.
Tesla finally discovered that he was just selling his physical strength in Edison's company, but what Edison received was a steady stream of huge financial returns.
This is an unfair thing.
He is a great man who has been forgotten by the world. He is the greatest inventor in the world, but he has encountered serious injustice in his life...
Fortunately, there is still a person named Wang Hengyue in this world who has not forgotten him...
Wang Hengyue offered him a salary of US$100 per week and promised to provide him with all the conditions he needed.
Nikola Tesla, who was impoverished and in urgent need of funds, agreed and came to this country with the help of the Chinese. In addition to money, he also needed respect, real respect.
And Wang Hengyue could provide him with all of this.
Perhaps in the whole world, only Wang Hengyue, the President of the Republic of China, knows his true value! (To be continued)
