Until now, the death of these two geniuses is still called suicide in the United States, but there are different opinions and disputes. One of them is Zhang Shousheng, Yang Zhenning's favorite disciple, born in 1963. He was a quiet boy since he was a child. He doesn't take part in sports much, but he likes reading very much. His grandfather is the famous high flyers of Fudan University. His home is full of dazzling books. As a teenager, he read widely and mastered a wealth of knowledge. Although he didn't go to high school, because of his love of reading, his knowledge is not worse than that of people who went to high school. At that time, the state issued a policy that people with junior high school education could also apply for universities, and few places were given. Through hard work, Zhang Shousheng was successfully admitted to Fudan University.
Later, he went there for further study and got the opportunity to study in Germany. While studying at the Free University of Berlin, he concentrated on theoretical physics. This major is very unpopular, and few people can graduate, but he has made great achievements in this field. He discovered the quantum spin Hall effect at a young age, which caused quite a stir in physics, and later led the team to find the "God particle", which also attracted much attention.
20 18 Zhang Shousheng prepares to return to China. However, the bad news suddenly came. On the eve of reunification, he committed suicide suddenly. His family said that he struggled with depression for a long time, but finally failed to survive and ended his life. Many people don't believe this statement.
Another mathematician, Ren Wei, was born in Shanghai. His teacher said that he was the best student among all the students he had taught. Ren Wei got good grades in every subject, especially math. He seems to have a natural ability to think and understand. He is more sensitive and creative than others. In 2000, he was admitted to Fudan University majoring in mathematical actuarial science with excellent results, and then he was given the opportunity to go to the University of Chicago for further study.
Because of his outstanding performance, he also served as a lecturer in calculus in the department of mathematics during his doctoral studies, and few people can do this. In the eyes of teachers and classmates, he is not a bookworm who can only read, but an energetic and energetic person. However, in 2008, when Ren Wei was preparing to return to China with his own research, the bad news suddenly came. He committed suicide in Chicago. The news came, and everyone who knew him was unbelievable. They say that Ren Wei is usually cheerful and has a positive attitude towards life. How could he choose to commit suicide?
These two geniuses didn't know each other, but committed suicide in the same way at the same time. Is it a coincidence that they are all preparing to return to China on the eve? Or is there another conspiracy? Until now, the cause of their death has not been investigated clearly. In any case, we should be vigilant, not only to send outstanding talents out for training, but also to create a good research environment to attract them back, and more importantly, to strengthen the protection of talents.
