According to the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, a memorial service for Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee was held at the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences on the morning of August 11. The participants mourned Mr. Lee with heavy hearts and fondly recalled his scientific contributions and noble character.

According to reports, more than 330 people attended the meeting, including leaders of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, academicians, experts, and teachers and students from more than 30 universities and research institutes such as Peking University, Tsinghua University, Shanghai Jiaotong University, the Institute of High Energy Physics, the Institute of Physics, and the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, representatives of Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee's family, relatives, friends, colleagues, and people from all walks of life. The venue was packed.

Wei Zhixiang, Deputy Director of the Bureau of Frontier Science and Basic Research of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, expressed deep remembrance and remembrance of Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee on behalf of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He pointed out that Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee has always cared about and supported the basic research work of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, actively offered advice and suggestions to national leaders, and promoted the leapfrog development of basic research talents in our academy and even the whole country; he personally participated in a series of Sino-US academic activities for a long time, actively promoted the establishment of relevant institutions, and laid a solid foundation for the good situation of international cooperation in basic research between China and the United States; to commemorate and remember Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee, we must learn from his strategic vision of focusing on the forefront, his scientific and rigorous academic attitude, and his strong and passionate childlike feelings. We should inherit and carry forward Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee's spirit, strengthen basic research with greater efforts, lay a solid foundation for scientific and technological self-reliance, produce a number of scientific achievements that will be milestones for human development in the future, and create a source and new high ground for original innovation.

Academician Gao Yuanning, Dean of the School of Physics at Peking University, expressed deep condolences on behalf of Peking University. He said that Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee made a far-reaching and forward-looking plan for the construction and development of Peking University's physics discipline, and personally promoted the cultivation of high-level talents, pioneering cutting-edge cross-disciplinary research and international exchanges and cooperation in physics and related disciplines at Peking University; we should learn from Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee's persistent pursuit and forward-looking vision of "asking more thoroughly and creating new things", his patriotic feelings and pure heart, his spiritual style and lofty realm of being a model teacher, and inherit and carry forward the precious wealth that Mr. Lee provided for the progress and development of China's physics cause, and even education, science and technology, and talent, and make greater contributions to the comprehensive promotion of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, which is "all connected".

On behalf of the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhou Shangui, Director of the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, expressed deep condolences and deep remembrance for the death of Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee. He said that the construction and development of the Institute of Theoretical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has not only greatly benefited from the CUSPEA, the postdoctoral mobile station system, the National Natural Science Foundation, etc., which were suggested and promoted by Mr. Lee, but also has always received selfless help from Mr. Lee. His life was full of persistent pursuit of science and selfless dedication to human civilization; the best commemoration is inheritance, and the deepest remembrance is promotion. We will inherit and promote Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee's scientific spirit and patriotism, face the major needs of the country and the forefront of world science and technology, continue to forge ahead and be brave in innovation, and make new and greater contributions to the development of my country's science and technology, education and talent training.

Afterwards, Academician Wang Yifang, Director of the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, gave a report entitled "Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee's Contributions to China's Science and Education", reviewing Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee's academic career of more than 60 years and his outstanding contributions to my country's high-energy physics, science and education, and talent training. Wang Yifang said that Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee was an awe-inspiring scientist, and even more so a great educator and patriot. He brought my country's high-energy physics to the forefront of the world, and cultivated a large number of reserve talents for the development of my country's basic research and applied sciences. He finally said, "The mountains and clouds are vast, the rivers are mighty, and Mr. Lee's style is as high as the mountains and as long as the rivers." Our remembrance of Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee is the greatest motivation for us to continue to struggle, and the best way to remember him is to continue to push forward his scientific spirit and unfinished cause.

According to the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, during the free speech session, the guests recalled every detail of their interactions with Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee, and remembered his brilliant achievements in the field of physics and his selfless contribution to the future of science in the motherland from different perspectives, restoring the image of a world-class scientific master who has a heart that is connected to the universe, cares about China, is indifferent to fame and fortune, is steadfast in his work, climbs to the top, and seeks truth and facts.

The Paper noted that the website of the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has published several condolence messages. Among them, the condolence message from the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security mentioned that Mr. Tsung-Dao Lee was the initiator of the establishment of the Chinese postdoctoral system and the Chinese Postdoctoral Science Foundation, and he has long served as the honorary chairman of the Chinese Postdoctoral Science Foundation. Mr. Lee has always been concerned about the development of science and technology, education, and talents in the motherland. He is willing to be a stepping stone for others, encourage students, and actively promote the development of China's postdoctoral cause from scratch and continue to innovate. With the personal care and support of Mr. Lee, the postdoctoral system has continuously improved its system, continuously optimized its training platform, and made the funding projects better and stronger since its establishment. It has become an important system for China to cultivate high-level innovative young talents, and has cultivated a large number of new forces who are brave enough to climb the peak of science and technology and devote themselves to social practice, injecting strong impetus into promoting the high-level development of Chinese science and technology.
