80 minutes is so short, it’s too short to even finish reading a book or watching a movie.
How long is 80 minutes? It almost completely depicts the magnificent life of a scientist.
This is the documentary "Wang Xuan" produced by the Institute of Computer Science and Technology of Peking University, the Honest Group and CCTV. In just 80 minutes, it vividly reflects on the life, deeds, scientific research achievements and personality charm of the "revolutionary pioneer" Academician Wang Xuan.
The narrative demonstrates Wangxuan’s unyielding dedication, innovative spirit of making progress, hard-working and down-to-earth craftsmanship, and market development spirit.
After watching, I felt even more sincerely: Now we can easily use the Chinese character input method to type and surf the Internet, and can happily read various Chinese books, all of which are inseparable from the hard work and selfless dedication of Academician Wang Xuan. The journey is even more difficult.
It is incredible to people today.
In that era when the country was poor and weak, Academician Wang Xuan led a team to overcome many difficulties and develop Chinese character laser phototypesetting technology without any research foundation. It was called "Modern Bi Sheng", which is no exaggeration.
It can be said that with the Chinese character laser typesetting technology, the transformation of Chinese character printing technology from lead and fire to light and electricity has been completed, and the efficiency has increased thousands of times.
Without this technology, China would not have ushered in an era of extremely rich publications and accelerated knowledge dissemination in the 1990s, let alone rapid growth.
But Wang Xuan is not just a scientist.
As a "scientist with a market perspective", he participated in the founding of Peking University Founder Group and proposed a "simple model" of integrating industry, academia and research.
He repeatedly pointed out that China must strengthen independent innovation and enterprises must become the main body of innovation.
His idea also opened up new directions for subsequent cooperation between universities and enterprises, and developed new ways to transform scientific and technological achievements into productive forces.
Scientific and technological achievements are the crystallization of wisdom and sweat. Without persistent efforts, it is difficult to achieve great results.
It was with perseverance and hard work that Wang Xuan completed the development and promotion of the laser phototypesetting project.
Therefore, in terms of scientific research, Wang Xuan warned young people to develop the habit of starting their own work and to be good at "delayed gratification."
Wang Xuan said: "In the field of computers, people who only come up with ideas and never start to implement them will not easily produce big results. A new idea and a new proposer are often the first to implement it." Einstein mourned Curie
Madame once said, "The significance of first-class figures to the times and the historical process is probably greater in terms of their moral character than in terms of their pure intellect."

"Do fewer wrong things, don't do bad things" is Wang Xuan's motto. When Wang Xuan summarized the reasons why he was able to achieve such great results, he pointed out at the first point that young people should pay attention to cultivating good moral character and know how to consider others.
You must lead by example. He believes that if you want to be a diligent scholar, you must first be a good person. Regarding Teacher Ji Xianlin's standard of a good person - "A good person is someone who considers others more than himself." Wang Xuan feels that he can be a little lower.
"A good person is one who considers others as much as he considers himself." Wang Xuan has been open-minded and generous for decades, and has experienced countless prosperity and wealth. When it comes to fame and fortune, Wang Xuan has a clear saying: "There is a saying in ancient China.
When a sergeant forgets his name, he completely forgets his fame and fortune; when a sergeant makes a name, he relies on his own achievements to establish it; when a corporal steals his name, he cannot steal from others.
I can't be a sergeant because I can't forget my name, but I won't steal it just to make it famous." In 1991, Wang Xuan donated the 300,000 bonus he had received over the years to the School of Mathematics at Peking University to establish
"Zhou Peiyuan Mathematics Scholarship" In 2001, he took out 9 million from the 5 million national highest science and technology scholarship he received in "equal matching" to establish the "Wangxuan Science and Technology Innovation Fund", which is specifically used to support scientific and technological innovation and
After his death, according to Wang Xuan’s last wish, the “Jiu San Wang Xuan Care” fund was established based on his many years of donations.
, alleviating the coal-burning crisis. After Wang Xuan became one of the upright leaders, he still maintained his simple life and reminded scientific researchers not to be confused by fame. Wang Xuan said: "Scientific research gives people the greatest happiness.
treatment.
The initial motivation for an accomplished scientist is never to win any prize, or to gain fame and fortune.
The reason for their fanatical pursuit is that they want to explore unknown areas." Wang Xuan has made outstanding contributions to the country. As a celebrity in the science and technology community and the leader of the Jiusan Society, he has always been open-minded. Although he has many titles of leaders,
But Wang Xuan’s most commonly used business card reads – Wang Xuan, professor at the Institute of Computer Science and Technology at Peking University.”
"The Book of the Later Han Dynasty" says: "Observe yourself but dare not make false accusations; follow the law and do not tolerate selfishness; do your best without daring to be shy; face adversities and do not avoid death; see virtuous people and do not place them above others; receive remuneration that does not exceed the amount; do not show incompetence in the esteemed position"
If you are in this position, you can be called an upright person." The reason why Wang Xuan chose the name of his company is "upright people".
