from April 18 to 21 2006 Chinese
president who led a Chinese delegation
to visit the United States
on April 19th president who visited the
final assembly plant of Boeing in the
United States
Alan Neely president of Boeing
commercial airplanes Praise Demands
tremendous contribution to Boeing
the person he mentioned made all the
Chinese present feel extremely proud
some people call him the father of
Boeing
incredibly the father of Boeing is
actually a Chinese
in 1916 Boeing was born in a handicraft
Workshop in Seattle USA and has
gradually developed into a giant in the
global Aerospace field over the past
Century
but few people know that the early rise
of Boeing is inseparable from a Chinese
he is Boeing's first aerospace engineer
Juan TSU
in today's video we will talk about
wongsa's flying life
OK let's get started
once it was born in Beijing in 1893
in 1909 sixteen-year-old Wong Su and
several young students went to England
to start their study abroad trip
after seeing the Manchu government being
oppressed by foreign powers he was very
eager to learn Advanced knowledge abroad
and return to serve his country
learn from the Advanced Technologies in
the West in order to resist the invasion
of the western Powers was the slogan of
every young Chinese with aspirations at
that time
at a naval University in the UK Wongs
had came into contact with aircraft
manufacturing
in 1912 Wong TSU and his friends flew in
the plane of an aviator
this flight experience left a deep
impression on him
at this time it was less than 10 years
since the Wright brothers produced the
first aircraft
Juan sakili felt that this big flying
guy would have a profound impact on
people in the future so he began to
study aircraft manufacturing hard
but soon the Flames of World War One
spread to the United Kingdom
wansu and several Chinese students came
to the United States to study
in 1915 wongsu and others came to MIT to
study Aeronautical Engineering
after graduation wanso looks forward to
returning home and using what he has
learned to help the motherland in
aircraft manufacturing
unfortunately the current situation in
China was very chaotic at that time and
they could not return home
at this time Wang TSU met a special
person
after that the Chinese left a strong
Mark in the history of world aircraft
manufacturing
this special man long met was named
William Edward Boeing
yes that's right Boeing is named after
him
in 1916 William founded the airline
which was later renamed Boeing airplane
company
in the same year on the recommendation
of a friend William met Wong TSU Who
convinced William with his expertise in
aircraft manufacturing
soon William hired Wong TSU as the first
chief engineer of Boeing Aircraft
company
the c-type seaplane designed and
manufactured by Wong so soon won an
order for 50 aircraft for Boeing which
is the order Boeing desperately needed
at the time without the
Boeing would likely have gone out of
business
with once as Talent Boeing aircraft has
officially gained a firm foothold which
is why some people call Wong so the
father of Boeing
as the chief engineer of Boeing wongsu's
position is very important
if he continues to stay in the United
States he will be able to achieve a
career
however after less than a year at Boeing
Wong sir returned home angrily
the c-type seaplane was designed and
manufactured by wongsu but what is
ridiculous is that during the flight
test the United States did not allow
wongsa to enter the flight test site
the reason was actually that he was
worried that Wong TSU would steal the
highest Aviation Technology from the
United States
after returning to the motherland wongsu
immediately devoted himself to
Industrial Construction
in 1918 wongsu participated in the
establishment of China's first regular
aircraft Factory and was appointed as
the deputy director
but it is a Pity that this young man who
has made great achievements in the
history of world aircraft manufacturing
has never been able to reproduce his
glory
in the early days the Chinese aircraft
manufacturing Factory did not have
special funds or special workshops so
they had to use the dilapidated
workshops of the former shipyards to
convert them into workshops not to
mention the materials and professional
equipment used to manufacture aircraft
however even in this difficult
environment wongsu and others still
managed to overcome various difficulties
and finally manufactured China's first
seaplane in 1919.
although the plane was built another
problem arose
China was in turmoil at the time and
many people had never heard of airplanes
therefore finding a professional pilot
in China to conduct test flights has
become a difficult problem for wongsu
in the end in desperation they have no
choice but chosen overseas Chinese with
only tens of hours of experience in
aircraft to conduct a test flight
however no one expected that Wong's
painstaking efforts turned into a
tragedy in this test flight
during the test flight due to the
Pilot's inexperience and improper
operation the plane stalled and crashed
the only thing that is fortunate is that
the pilot survived
at that time the parking and maintenance
of seaplanes were difficult problems
after in-depth research Wong Soo and his
friends finally built the world's first
seaplane floating hangar
in the following years Wongs had trained
the first batch of aeronautical
Engineers for China
Wong TSU and his friends compiled
textbooks and taught them in person
imparting what they knew and learned
during the Chinese anti-japanese war in
the fierce battle with the Japanese Air
Force many Chinese Air Force Heroes were
students of Wang TSU
such talents are naturally a thorn in
the eyes of the Japanese
in 1928 byuzelle wants his friend who
studied with him and studied bombers was
poisoned by the Japanese
even so Wang so did not stop developing
the bomber
in 1934 under the charge of wongsu the
central Hangzhou aircraft Factory
manufactured the first Northrop medium
bomber and mass-produced it
during the anti-japanese war these
bombers performed well on the
battlefield shooting down and destroying
Japanese aircraft ships and vehicles
many times
during the anti-japanese war Wong TSU
was one of the top officials in China's
Aviation manufacturing industry at that
time but he was always fighting in the
front line of aircraft design and
Manufacturing
his office has no desk just a long
drafting table covered with drawings
in 1946 wongsu almost created another
miracle in the world's Aerospace history
he developed a giant glider that could
carry 30 paratroopers
at that time the largest glider in the
world could only carry more than 10
paratroopers
it's a Pity that Wong says research
results were not taken seriously and the
drawings of the most advanced glider in
the world at that time were locked in a
safe and finally disappeared
the fate of wongsu is also quite similar
to this blueprint
after that he never participated in the
development of the aircraft
later Wong TSU served as a professor in
the University
through time we seem to see an old man
in his late Twilight carrying textbooks
walking in the sunset
who would have thought that this old man
was not only the first chief designer of
a world-renowned aircraft company but
also made great contributions to the
development of China's aviation industry
in 2007 among the 16 personalized stamps
issued by China in the Chinese Aviation
Heroes wongsu was impressively listed
this veteran who has made great
contributions to the motherland has
returned to Chinese Vision again in this
way
