Alone in a foreign land as a stranger, every festival is more than homesick.

On October 1, 1949, New China was born. Qian Xuesen was very excited. During the Mid-Autumn Festival of that year (the sixth day of the birth of New China), Qian Xuesen and his wife had a strong idea in their hearts: to return to the motherland and contribute their wisdom and strength to the newborn motherland.
In July 1950, Qian Xuesen, who had already made up his mind to return to his homeland, met with the vice secretary of the U.S. Navy in charge of his research work and told him that he was ready to leave for China immediately. The second-generation was shocked. He thinks:
Qian Xuesen is worth five divisions no matter in **. He once said: "I would rather shoot him than let him go back to China."
In August 1950, Qian Xuesen bought a plane ticket and prepared to leave the United States on a plane from the Canadian Pacific Company. In mid-September, he resigned from his post as director of the supersonic laboratory at the California Institute of Technology in Los Angeles and head of the Guggenheim Jet Propulsion Research Center at this school. At the same time, he had packed many scientific books and research notes into boxes and handed them over to an American moving company to ship back home.

In the early morning of October 1, 1955, in the vast Pacific Ocean, a huge ship was sailing towards Hong Kong. A middle-aged man in his 40s stepped onto the deck with steady steps. From time to time, a gust of sea breeze swept across his broad forehead.
Looking into the distance, he counted that he had been at sea for 15 days. Thinking that ahead of him was the motherland that haunted him, how he wished that his feet were not the deck of a ship, but the bulkhead of a rocket! He is the world-famous scientist Qian Xuesen.
Qian Xuesen graduated from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 1934, and then went to the United States to study under the famous American aerodynamics professor von Kármen, becoming Professor von Kármen's most proud student and most effective assistant. At that time, Qian Xuesen enjoyed a generous salary, a wealthy life and superior working conditions. However, he did not forget his homeland for a moment.
He said: I am Chinese. Everything I do now is to prepare, so that I can do more for the people when I return to my motherland.
On October 1, 1949, New China was born with the rumbling salute. On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, Qian Xuesen and more than a dozen Chinese students celebrated the traditional festival of the Chinese nation. As the saying goes, every festive season is more than "Dongliang."
While admiring the moon, they poured out their homesickness. Every year in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and now in the Mid-Autumn Festival, in the first Mid-Autumn Festival after the birth of New China, they talk about the bright prospects of the motherland and feel particularly excited.
At this moment, Qian Xuesen's long-buried desire became stronger and stronger: to return to the motherland as soon as possible and use his expertise to serve the construction of the motherland. He revealed his heart to the international students.
Some of the international students persuaded: The motherland has just been liberated, and I have no money and no equipment, and now I am afraid that I will have difficulties when I go back to engage in scientific research. "Qian Xuesen said sincerely
What we are looking forward to day and night is that the motherland can move from darkness to light, and this day has finally come. The motherland is very poor now, but it needs us, the sons and daughters of the motherland, to create together. We should go back.
Hearing that Qian Xuesen was preparing to return to China, a senior general of the US Navy said: Qian Xuesen is worth 5 divisions no matter how he goes, and he must not be allowed to leave the United States! \\
However, Qian Xuesen's determination to return to China has not wavered for a moment, after five long years, under the care of the Prime Minister, on September 17, 1955, Qian Xuesen finally embarked on the voyage back to China.
After returning to China, Qian Xuesen made outstanding contributions to the development and launch of China's carrier rockets and missiles, and was known as the "father of China's missiles".
