China News Service, Xiamen, April 29 (Reporter Li Siyuan) "My father may be a role model for many people to learn from, but for me, my father is the softest part of my heart." I recalled the points I used to get along with my father Chen Jingrun. Bit by bit, Chen Youwei, who has passed the age of confusion, has a lot of thoughts.

  Invited by the School of Marxism of Xiamen University, on the 28th, Chen Youwei took the stage of his father's alma mater for the first time, and shared the theme lecture "Conjecture, Ideal, Dream-Promotion of Scientific Spirit and the Responsibility of Contemporary Youth" with more than 600 Xiamen University students online and offline.

"Every time I go back to Xiamen University, I feel very cordial. Today's classroom is also very fragrant. There are swallows flying in and out from time to time. I have never experienced it." Chen Youwei's opening remarks made the teachers and students smile knowingly.

  "Xiamen University is the place where my father's dream of mathematics took off." Chen Youwei started from his father's time at Xiamen University. In 1950, Chen Jingrun was admitted to the Department of Mathematics of Xiamen University, and later returned to work at Xiamen University by chance.

Chen Youwei said that his father not only learned knowledge here, but more importantly, moral cultivation.

He took a 98-point test paper with all correct answers as an example. At that time, Fang Dezhi, a professor in the Department of Mathematics of Xiamen University, gave a full score of 98 points to Chen Jingrun's paper for the reason of scribbled handwriting, and warned Chen Jingrun that "in the future, the results of research have been obtained, but the writing is not clear. It's always a shortcoming." Chen Jingrun, who kept it in his heart, has never scribbled in writing since then.

"This is the teaching that my father has benefited from his life." Chen Youwei showed his father's manuscripts in his later years to the teachers and students.

  Chen Jingrun is not good at words but works very hard.

In 1966, after Chen Jingrun advanced the work of proving Goldbach's conjecture, the jewel in the crown of mathematics, to "1+2", this is the shining pinnacle of the sieve theory, known as "Chen's Theorem".

From obscurity to being liked, Chen Jingrun did not relax in the face of flowers and applause.

"My father stayed in the study room at home for a long time every day, and the study room was basically not allowed to enter. But I was naughty and often went in and out, and my father was very helpless." Very good, it resonated with the students present.

  Chen Youwei, who did not want to live under the halo of his father, chose liberal arts at high school, and then went to Canada to study business.

After studying for a year, Chen Youwei suddenly switched to mathematics, "I want to find out why my father likes mathematics and give myself a chance." Chen Youwei recalled that when he was preparing for the exam in the library, he found a book entitled "Chen's Theorem" written by his father. Theory of Numbers, I meditated in my heart and hoped that my father would ensure that he would pass every test.

When he was studying, Chen Youwei found a wonderful feeling, "I feel closer to my father. He loves mathematics and is even willing to give his life experience until the last moment of his life. Suddenly I understand him better."

  From "Goldbach Conjecture" to "Chen Jingrun's Mathematical Dream" and finally to the drama "Goldbach Conjecture" directed and performed by Xiamen University, Chen Youwei's nearly two-hour speech allowed more than 600 online and offline students to understand The famous president of Xiamen University.

"Poems and the distance have to keep thinking, but the homework still has to be completed." Chen Youwei's humor won rounds of applause from the students present.

  "I was a college student in the 1980s, and Chen Jingrun was our idol back then. With his love for his alma mater and the country, he wrote his original mission with his life-long actions." Yuan Hua, associate professor at the School of Marxism at Xiamen University, said that Chen Youwei's sharing For the teachers and students present, he showed a father whose actions speak louder than words, a scientific researcher who dares to take responsibility, and a student of Xiamen University who practiced the school motto "Self-improvement never stops at perfection".

  With the ringing of the centenary bell of Xiamen University, Chen Youwei's first class sharing came to a successful conclusion. When looking back for a group photo, everyone found that the swallows that had been flying in and out were building their nests on the roof of the classroom. return".
