四十年前,正是第二次世界大战的战火燃遍欧洲的时候,黄纬禄在英国留学,学的是电机专业。一天,德国法西斯在离他只有一百米的地方投下一枚V型火箭,幸好未被炸着,他避免了一场葬身异国的悲剧,同时,又饱了眼福,看到了火箭。这原来是一种自己带着动力装置,并能接受控制而飞向目标的一种“炮弹”。这时他竟滋生了一种孩童般的新奇感,心想:我们中国什么时候也能制造火箭? Forty years ago, it was exactly when the war in World War II was burning in Europe. Huang Weilu studied in the UK and studied electrical engineering. One day, the German fascist dropped a V-shaped rocket only a hundred meters away from him. Fortunately, he was not blown away. He avoided a tragedy of expelling another country. At the same time, he was full-blown and saw the rocket. This turned out to be a kind of “cannonball” with its own motive power unit that can take control and fly to the target. At this moment, he breeds a childlike curiosity: When can we make rockets in China?
