Ye Shuhua

The 95-year-old academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and China’s first female Director of the Observatory - Ye Shuhua

She has been devoted to astronomy for more than 70 years.

She is known as the "Mother of Beijing Time" - she presided over the establishment of the Chinese World Time at the age of 32 The system determines what is currently called "Beijing time".

There is an asteroid in the universe named after her.

She is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and an internationally renowned astronomer.

She is the founder of my country’s comprehensive universal time system and a pioneer in astronomy and geodynamics.

She is also the first female observatory director in China.

Now at the age of 95, she still comes to the Shanghai Observatory to work at 9 a.m. every working day. How did she do this?

When you do something, you are only 40% sure. If you stop here, your certainty will slowly become 20%, and finally 0; if you actively strive for it, you can turn it into 60%. , 70%, and finally it was done.

——Ye Shuhua

A woman’s good life begins with never accepting her fate.

Only by refusing to accept your fate can you change your destiny

In 1945, Ye Shuhua was admitted to the Department of Mathematics and Astronomy at Sun Yat-sen University with the highest score.

In college, she developed a keen interest in astronomy.

After graduation, Ye Shuhua taught in Hong Kong. It was very difficult to find a job at that time, but she quit her job and returned to Shanghai.

Because she was interested in astronomy, she wanted to work at the Purple Mountain Observatory. Unexpectedly, she was rejected when she applied for the job.

At that time, there were no female researchers at the observatory, and the person in charge said that they wanted to recruit a man.

After Ye Shuhua heard this, she was furious. She said:

"I am also studying astronomy, and I am very good at it. Why don't you recruit me?"

Under the circumstances of that year, with his academic qualifications and majors, Ye Shuhua could be regarded as a leader in the industry and a rare top student.

Ye Shuhua, who refused to accept his fate, hit the wall again.

When everyone advised her to give up, she mustered up the courage and wrote a letter to Zhang Yuzhe, the then director of the Observatory.

Ye Shuhua is very sensible. She wrote down her advantages and 5 reasons why she should be hired by the Observatory in a clear and eloquent way.

Four months later, Zhang Yuzhe was moved by Ye Shuhua's perseverance and invited her to work at the Xujiahui Observatory, a subsidiary of the Purple Mountain Observatory.

In 1951, Ye Shuhua entered the Xujiahui Observatory in Shanghai to work.

Prior to this, there were no female staff at the Xujiahui Observatory.

In 1981, Ye Shuhua served as the director of the Shanghai Observatory, becoming the first female director of the Observatory in China.

At the "She" Forum of the world's top scientists held on November 2, a video of 95-year-old Ye Shuhua completing a 20-minute speech in fluent English became a hot search on Weibo.

In her speech, she encouraged women to break the "glass ceiling" and take action to fight for gender equality.

"If you want to get equality, you have to fight for it. You have to show your abilities, work hard, and be conscientious. As long as we women work hard to do better, the status of women will be higher and higher. "

Although there was a screen across the screen, her kind face, fluent and standard English, and firm eyes shocked me.

I was shocked not because of her 95-year-old age, nor because of her strong and powerful voice.

Behind the glamorous appearance is countless hardships.

The tenacity that goes deep into the bones allows people to bloom flowers in the dust.

She said in the interview: “If I want to do something, I will do whatever it takes.

She also did it, her eyes never left the vast galaxy

In Ye Shuhua, we see the strength of Chinese women’s tenacity and self-confidence

Women are not We should confine ourselves, like warriors, we should use our inner strength to break free from the shackles. We should learn from Ye Shuhua's strength and break the glass ceiling.

If you can do one thing well in your life, just do it. Become

Know this one thing, no matter how hard or tiring it is, keep doing it

The reason why this petite woman can be respected among her international peers , lies in her vision and courage of "doing nothing but doing your best"

Mr. Ye Shuhua is well interpreted in her softness but not weakness.

Wu Shihong

Wu Shihong is known as the "Chinese Working Female Empress"

At first, she was just a medical nurse at Chunshu Hospital in Xuanwu District, Beijing Personnel, working in the emergency room.

After recovering from a serious illness at the end of 1983, he began to learn English by himself. In 1985, he passed the self-study English exam for higher education;

Entered IBM in 1986 and was employed in February 1998. General manager of Microsoft China, resigned from Microsoft in August 1999;

Joined TCL Group Co., Ltd. on December 1, 1999, and served as managing director and vice president of TCL Group, and president of TCL Information Industry (Group) Co., Ltd. Manager.

How did a nurse who graduated from high school do this?

As expected, there is something to learn from any position, even the most junior position.

Opportunities are everywhere, as long as you take every job seriously, take the initiative to learn, and take the initiative to improve yourself

She died once,

In 1979, Wu Shihong suffered from leukemia and underwent chemotherapy again and again for 4 years.

She felt that there was not much time left for herself. She felt that I could not live like this and I had to live again.

How did Wu Shihong survive? He just looked for opportunities little by little.

Nursing is the hardest job in the workplace.

It turned out to be lifeless. Even a job as a nurse could not satisfy the needs of food and clothing.

After recovering from a serious illness, Wu Shihong spent one and a half years studying Xu Guozhang's three-year English course while working as a nurse

Took the Higher Education Self-Study English Examination

In 1985, after receiving a college diploma in English, Wu Shihong confidently entered the Beijing office of IBM, the world's largest information industry company. Obtained her first job in a foreign company.

At IBM, she worked as an "administrative specialist", which was almost like a handyman, doing everything.

Two impressive things have been constantly pushing Wu Shihong to move forward.

?Once, because she did not bring her work permit, she was stopped by the company’s guard and was not allowed to enter.

She told the guard that she was indeed an employee of the company, and she was going to buy office supplies for the company this time.

However, despite her many nice words, the doorman still ignored her and refused to let her in.

During this period, she watched helplessly as white-collar workers of a similar age and dressed in professional attire entered the company's door one after another without showing their work ID cards.

So she asked the doorman: "Why did these people get in without showing their work ID?"

The doorman looked her up and down with a look of contempt, coldly. He waved his hand coldly, which meant: "Go away, don't bother me!".

She felt extremely humiliated, and her self-esteem seemed to have been severely stepped on by the guard.

She looked at her shabby clothes and the dirty flatbed cart she was pushing, and then looked at those gorgeous clothes. Her heart was deeply hurt, and she suddenly tasted the pain of being discriminated against. Sadness

At this moment, at this moment, a vow exploded in Wu Shihong's heart: I must create miracles and never allow others to block me from any door! Let this shame be buried underground forever!

?There is a Hong Kong female staff member who is very senior and often forces others to do things for her. Wu Shihong naturally becomes the target of her drive.

One day, with a gloomy look on her face, she said to Wu Shihong: "Juliet (Wu's English name), if you want to drink my coffee, please close the lid every time!"

< p> She regarded Wu Shihong as a thief who often drank her coffee. This was a personal insult.

Wu Shihong said to himself afterwards: One day, I will have the ability to manage anyone in the company, whether they are foreigners or Hong Kong people.

Inferiority can be like a mountain that crushes people and leaves you silent forever, or it can be like a propeller that generates powerful power.

From then on, she began to take advantage of every opportunity to enrich herself. Every day, she is the first to come to the company and the last to leave.

She counts every second and spends the time that others throw away casually on study and work.

Spending 6 hours more on work and study every day than others, Wu Shihong was the first among the same batch of recruits to become a business representative.

Then, the same dedication made her one of the first batch of local managers, and then one of the first batch of people to go to the US headquarters to do strategic research.

Finally, Wu Shihong became the first general manager of IBM South China.

After that, she was poached by Microsoft and served as the general manager of the Chinese company.

This is the reward for extra effort.

As long as you work hard, you can still succeed from a low starting point. ?

Wu Shihong’s tenacity is amazing.

The boss suspected her of stealing coffee and insulted her in public. The security guard stopped her from entering and bullied her. She could endure any grievance.

Growing up slowly all the way, and finally killing everyone in an instant,

She is just one person, you may not be able to do it when you look at her, but she proves that she can through her own efforts

In Wu Shihong, we see the perseverance and unyielding power of Chinese women, which is the true power of women.

Writer Lu Yao said in "The Ordinary World":

"Everyone has an awakening period, but the sooner or later the awakening determines the individual's destiny."

If destiny is a lonely river, then the real ferryman is yourself.

Only by refusing to admit defeat can you survive difficulties. Life is not always smooth sailing.

Only a person who refuses to admit defeat can survive those dark nights when no one cares.

When you have the ability to influence others and then control yourself,

When you can do things without regrets,

You can take control Women are always at the wheel of life.

"How a person sees himself often hints at his destiny."

If you think you are destined to be unlucky, you will lose the courage to turn around;

Only if you dare to hit the door of destiny can you find the way to miracles.

Don’t be limited by the eyes and judgments of others, take yourself seriously, pick up the brush and create your own paintings.

For the rest of your life, don’t accept your fate easily and try to change it.
