Green bricks and blue tiles, vermilion painted pillars. There is a tidy office in the Geological Palace of Jilin University, which attracts many people to visit every year. This is Huang Danian's office before his death, which was the strategic scientist who filled multiple technological gaps in China's "sky survey, earth exploration, and sea diving", and had fought countless times on the "battlefield".
At the end of 2009, Huang Danian was appointed as a professor at the School of Earth Exploration Science and Technology at Jilin University. Over the past eight years, he devoted himself wholeheartedly and tirelessly, leading his team to create multiple "firsts in China": from scratch, he developed an aviation gravity gradient instrument with independent intellectual property rights and a series of deep ground exploration equipment; The research and development of "fast mobile platform detection technology" has been widely applied in the field of oil, gas, and mineral resource exploration technology
After numerous monuments of technological innovation, there is a group of professionals who are indifferent to fame and fortune, devoted to research, and only strive to achieve the cause of our motherland.

When Liu Yongtan, a professor of Harbin Institute of Technology, received the 2018 National Highest Science and Technology Award on the stage, the public learned that this white haired, plainly dressed old man had the title of "double academician" of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering. His life was long, but he only did one great thing - researching new system radars.
![A New Story of Northeast Revitalization from the Perspective of Major Powers](https://a5qu.com/upload/images/cdc612e41be17941a59cac1cb7679795.jpg)
In the early 1980s, under the severe situation of relying on traditional radar to monitor and warn less than 20% of China's sea areas, Liu Yongtan took the initiative to undertake the task of developing a new system of radar. In the 1990s, they set up an experimental station in the desert. Thousands of tests, tens of thousands of test data, hungry to eat cold Mantou, sleepy to sleep on the floor of the experimental station... In 2011, the "radar iron army" led by Liu Yongtan finally successfully developed China's first all-weather, long-distance, sea and air compatible coastal defense early warning equipment, which was superior to the most advanced equipment in the world at that time.
"Teacher Liu demonstrated the original intention and perseverance of a strategic scientist through his actions, and he is a role model for us young people to learn from," said Li Yang, a member of Liu Yongtan's team.
Technological innovation is valued in the relay. Yan Changxiang, a researcher of Chunguang Institute of Mechanical Mechanics, President of Chinese Science, expressed his gratitude for growing up from being a doctoral candidate to becoming a subsystem chief designer of major projects such as the "China Space Station". Behind every step of growth, Wang Jiaqi, a tutor and academician of the CAS Member, could not do without his strict requirements and dedication to cultivation.
As the chief designer of the optical cameras for Shenzhou-5 and Shenzhou-6, Wang Jiaqi has always been in a research state of "acceleration". However busy his work is, he always leaves a portion of the morning for students to discuss project directions and revise papers. Under the guidance of words and deeds, Yan Changxiang has now led more than 50 graduate students, and his achievements are abundant throughout the world. He worked hard to take on the responsibility of his teacher and continue to cultivate more new forces for the research and manufacturing of aerospace optical cameras.
Continuously passing down the torch, generations of science and technology workers in Northeast China have devoted their lives to the important weapons of the great country, only to strengthen the backbone of the country.
