In the spring of 1983, I went to the United States with my younger classmates to participate in a speech contest.

To our surprise and delight, a junior schoolmate was like a bright new star that illuminated the clouds above China.

Eye-catching, confident, and graceful.

This junior schoolmate got tied for first place. The moment the result came out, I suppressed my inner excitement. It turns out that Chinese people can be so excellent.

I was impressed.

That admiration for the strong made it a blessing for me to become her assistant many years later.

I am very aware of my shortcomings.

Even though I was born in a well-off family and even though I have innate advantages, I was timid when facing these people from the international community.

Lack of confidence.

But she was different, very different.

There was light on Ruan Qingge's body standing on the podium, which gathered the fine dust around him until it turned into a column of light.

Such a person, regardless of gender, when she stands there, she is a ray of light and a source of strength.

It was at this moment that Chinese self-confidence took root in my heart. I was educated by this younger schoolmate.

Since then, I have changed my thinking and habits. Perhaps we can also become as powerful as Western countries with the persistence of countless ordinary people.

After graduation, I joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and was responsible for translation work. Once when I was receiving foreign guests, the other party said that they did not like male translators, so my superiors found her mentor, Professor Lan, and recommended her.

That translation was really wonderful.

The other party really is just trying to make things difficult for the sake of making things difficult.

However, Ruan Qingge handled the problem very well, and the other party didn't get any linguistic advantage or loopholes. I was secretly happy in my heart, thinking that Ruan Qingge had to be the one to do it.

I think she is great, but Si Yanzhao thinks she is opportunistic. I thought she would not argue with Si Yanzhao, but I didn't expect that she would abuse Si Yanzhao into a piece of shit as soon as she opened her mouth.

It was then that I realized that she had a photographic memory.

Still working so hard.

I felt ashamed of myself, so I started to study hard and learned three foreign languages, thinking that maybe I could compete with her in the future. Who would have thought that when she returned, she had mastered no less than ten foreign languages.

As small as Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese.

She can communicate without any problem.

From that moment on, I knew that I would never be able to catch up with her in my lifetime, but I would still try my best.

Who wouldn’t like such a powerful and radiant person?

I have also heard many legends about her in the country, and I use them to encourage myself to be better.

After she returned to China, she became our colleague. It was a real pleasure to get along with her and I learned a lot from her.

I learned a lesson from her: we are not weak, and we should fight for what we should fight for and not give up an inch.

It was also after she returned that I learned something.

She has played a significant role in China's technological development in recent years. Many projects were proposed by her and she also provided financial support.

It can be said that she is present in many projects in China now, especially in the communications industry.

She made China what it is today.

She struggled for the strength of China throughout her life. She also raised three outstanding children for China. Her daughter brought China's aerospace industry to its peak.

It was an exciting moment.

The spacecraft took off, and she, her daughter and her husband embarked on a journey into the universe.

I knew that would be the last time we saw each other.
