As the saying goes, "Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world." It is precisely because of the many people who have devoted themselves infinitely to the country and the people that China has been able to get to where it is today step by step and have made great progress in national defense, politics, military, economy and other aspects. Just take national defense as an example. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was in a state of poverty and poverty. However, experts such as Deng Jiaxian never gave up.

He himself also got cancer from his work on developing nuclear weapons. When Deng Jiaxian was dying in his later years, his good friend came to visit him and was deeply moved by his words. So what is going on? What did Deng Jiaxian say to Yang Zhenning again?

The story has to start in 1950. Deng Jiaxian had the idea of ??returning to China for development after the founding of New China in 1949. So this pair of good friends with similar interests separated. But he and Yang Zhenning grew up together and established a very deep friendship. So after Deng Jiaxian returned to China, Yang Zhenning always remembered him.

However, due to various factors, they have never been able to get together. It was not until 1971 that the two had the opportunity to meet. But after meeting each other briefly, they were separated again. But thankfully, when Deng Jiaxian was suffering from cancer, Yang Zhenning came to visit him. In 1986, Deng and Yang reunited again after 15 years.

This is also the last meeting between Yang Zhenning and Deng Jiaxian. In the photo, Deng Jiaxian is obviously beyond his capabilities. Yang Zhenning took a photo with him. Although Deng Jiaxian's face was kind, the fatigue hidden in the corners of his eyes could not be concealed. Deng Jiaxian said, "I do not regret developing nuclear weapons, because this job can make the country better and stronger."

There is no regret or regret in just a few words. Yang Zhenning was deeply moved after hearing this, and even asked his connections to help him buy foreign special medicines. It's a pity that all this seems to be too late. The nuclear weapons industry cultivated and developed by Deng Jiaxian was flourishing, but his own life seemed to be withered.

He used to revise drawings and calculate formulas day and night. He once lay in his hospital bed working tirelessly on his own book on nuclear weapons. He also once wore thin protective clothing to pick up scrapped warheads. All the experimenters knew how powerful the radiation from nuclear weapons was, but they couldn't back down.

Deng Jiaxian took the lead and held up the fragments of the nuclear bomb that he had worked so hard to find with his hands. But it also caused irreversible damage to his body. On July 29, 1986, Deng Jiaxian left this world forever. But before he left, he submitted a proposal for nuclear weapons development in April 1986. Deng Jiaxian is a candle, always burning and always bringing light to people.
