Chinese President Hu Jintao visited two renowned Chinese
scientists, nuclear physicist Zhu Guangya and mathematician Yang
Le, at their homes in Beijing Friday afternoon.??
???
The president solicited opinions and suggestions from the two
scientists on the country's development of science and technology,
and extended New Year's greetings to them and science workers
throughout the country.
???
Zhu, 80, is an academician of both the Chinese
Academy of Sciences (CAS) and the Chinese Academy of
Engineering (CAE). Yang Le, 65, is an academician of the Chinese
Academy of Sciences (CAS) and a research fellow of the Academy of
Mathematics and System Sciences of the CAS.

At 3:00 PM, Hu, who is also general secretary of the Central
Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and chairman of the
Central Military Commission, visited Zhu's home on behalf of
China's central leadership. Hu presented a floral basket to Zhu and
talked with the old scientist.
???
Zhu is one of the best-known scientists in China. He made great
contributions to China's nuclear program and participated in
organizing all the atomic bomb and hydrogen bomb experiments in
China, the construction of the Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant, the
research on the application and development of radioactive
isotopes, and the making and implementation of China's high-tech
research and development program.

Zhu thanked Hu for his visit, saying it shows the CPC general
secretary's solicitude for all Chinese scientists.
???
After that, the president visited the home of Yang Le, one of the
most active mathematicians in China. In the 1970s, Yang studied the
relationship between deficient values and borel directions of
entire and meromorphic functions. In cooperation with another
Chinese mathematician, Zhang Guanghou, he discovered and
established the detailed relation between these two basic
concepts.
???
President Hu spoke highly of Yang's achievements in mathematical
studies. The president and the mathematician also discussed the
government's efforts to promote research on basic science.
???
In his talks with the two scientists, Hu urged all Chinese
scientists and people in all walks of life to follow the examples
of the older generation of Chinese scientists, including their
loyalty to the motherland and the people, braveness in innovation
and overcoming hardships and rigorous scholarship, and devote their
wisdom and strength to achieving prosperity of the country and
happiness of the people.
