Do you know Qian Xuesen? He is the father of China's missile(导弹)program and the key scientist of space technology in China. Born in Shanghai, Qian graduated from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in1934. In 1935, he let China to study at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Qian was so gifted that he joined in rocket experimentation in his 20s

Although he had a high salary and lived a comfortable life in the US, Qian cared about his home country's development. In 1955, he went through all difficulties and returned to China. This brought China the hope of developing space science and its own missiles. Under Qian's guidance, China exploded its first atomic bomb(原子弹) in 1964 and its first hydrogen(且) bomb in 1967.

Qian's achievements were so huge. When he died aged 98, the nation went into mourning(悼念)"China lost an outstanding scientist, " said Wei Qiyong, a student of Qian, according to Global Times. "The space industry lost its founder and creator. Engineers lost a guide. " Zhang Yiwu, a professor at Peking University, said Qian should also be remembered as a patriotic(爱国的)person. "Qian placed national achievement ahead of his personal gain," Zhang told Global Times.

Now, many years later, young Chinese have learned from Qian's patriotism. An increasing number of overseas Chinese students have returned to China to work, because of love for the country. And they help China develop rapidly and improve its international status(地位), People's Daily reported.
