A few days ago, Aprilfool questioned the value of repeated discussion of the Cultural Revolution on overseas Chinese net. She concluded that the impact can be very small. The reason might be: China today is so different from 40 or 50 years ago. For the younger generation, that was just a period of the Chinese history. At the age of Internet, everyone can have an opinion and there are just too many oppinions.


There are many similar activities on the Internet. If you do this for entertainment or a sense of self-importance, by all means continue to 指点江山. But 张益唐, 饶毅 and many others have shown another way of using our time: achieve our own success in whatever profession we chose or happen to be in. You probably knew that 张益唐 was a key leader in the Chinese Students and Scholar Independent Federation of the 1989 students-led democratic movement in USA. But he soon turned his full attention to number theory research and proved the earth-shattering twin prime number theorem (Yes, I believe this beats Chen Jinren's work). 饶毅 was also a student leader who later emerged as a world class biomedical researcher.  He has had a real positive impact in China by serving as Dean of Beida's School of Life Science.


Just some random thoughts.


added and copied later:


"很多纽约的老民运人士星期六出席了庆功宴。张益唐89后加入海外最早的民运组织中国民联。胡平、冯盛平、齐光、于大海都是他的好友。如同数学界人士不会想到他是早年的民运人士一样,民运界也不会想到他们中会出一个数学大家。张益唐表示,作为一个独立知识分子,他的理念不会改变;而与会者则都鼓励他“好好做数学”。"

我一个好朋友的儿子现在在北京协和大学读医,他告诉我饶毅可是他们这些年轻人非常崇拜的偶像,喜欢他把西方的教学方式和科研手段带回给中国。。。

Thanks. All you said is correct.

有些人踏踏实实做的工作是有意义的,包括关于文革的资料整理。

90年代初,张的研究领域是代数几何,所以“ soon turned his full attention to number theory research ” 不准确。再有,他并没有证明twin prime number theorem, 而是证明了“存在无穷多个之差小于7000万的素数对”。(如果能把7000万降到2,那就是twin prime number theorem)

所有这些不影响张的结果的意义,也和也教授日志的主题没关。

红豆: 鼎    and 饶毅是那个没选上院士的吗
Yes, one of the two. The other, Shi Yigong, was later elected member of U.S. academy of Science.

SevenStar: 裸鸡没煮熟。讨论文革与你的两个例子有矛盾吗?

何况,不是每个人都能当张益唐、饶毅。那还活不活了?
我肯定不能当张益唐、饶毅。所以我要playing my role, as a 炉匠。

waspking: so, it is diversity that helps more...we should all find and do what we enjoy doing.   
do useful things. do not spend time on useless activities unless they have entertainment or therapeutic values.
