China's 'commoner academician' continues to give his all to the nation, even in death, Zheng Caixiong reports in Guangzhou.
Lu Yonggen, an academician with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, once said he thought his daughter - his only child - could support herself and so he didn't need to leave her any property or money.
"The Communist Party of China nurtured and trained me, so I returned all my property to the State to be used for society," Lu said. "It is my final contribution to the State."
