Mr. Klysler Yen and earthquake forecasting Author: Ji Cheng Gu
The title will surprise seismologists! When did you hear of a seismologist surnamed Zhen? I met Mr. Yun Long Zhen at the first Chinese folk ensemble in Boston. It's been more than 40 years of friendship between us. I know Mr. Zhen very well and respect him very much. Don't say anything else about him, just say his dedication toward public welfare. He often pays attention to and has insight into the impact of changes of the Global issues toward the Chinese community. Caring about and selflessly helping new overseas Chinese immigrants in need. Over the past few decades, many scholars and artists from China have come here for the first time, and they are not familiar with the place of life and have many difficulties. Mr. Zhen will always try his best to help and respond to any requests. I know that he has helped many Chinese newcomers to Boston settle in and find jobs.
In order to better integrate Asian Americans into the American society and live in harmony with Americans, Therefore, in order to contribute to society together, and build a better future, we lead the establishment of the Asian American Association to help more people. To this end, he worked hard, regardless of any gain or loss. Mr Zhen is certainly not a seismologist. How did he get involved with earthquake forecasting again? That's what happened in 2020. I remember that the plague began to ravage the world in 2020. For the first time, I talked to Mr. Zhen about earthquake disaster forecasting. I mentioned that earthquakes are also natural disasters for human beings. Unlike the plague, earthquakes occur every year. On average, they bring about 35.8 billion US dollars in losses and tens of thousands of casualties to the global human beings every year. I talked about the catastrophe and tragedy of the Tangshan earthquake and the Wenchuan earthquake, especially when I said that what I am most worried about now is the threat of a magnitude 8-9 earthquake in California, and today's mainstream seismologists in the world have given up earthquake prediction, He was shocked when he mistakenly believed that an earthquake was a random emergency that could not be predicted and could only be predicted with a certain probability. Said: This is a big scientific problem and a major event concerning the life, property and safety of all human beings. I also said that, based on my decades of research and practice, if I were given the conditions, I would be able to predict earthquakes, and he immediately said: Well, Ji Cheng Gu, I support you! And said: "I want to dedicate the second half of my life to the great cause of the real common destiny of mankind! This is not for the sake of fame, not for profit, but for saving lives! The great cause that transcends politics, religion, race and national boundaries, in In the face of a major earthquake disaster, everyone is equal. This is also the highest level of service and dedication advocated by the Asian American Association, which is of great significance, and I support you in doing it!" I know that half of this is Mr. Zhen's understanding and trust in my ability, and the other half is the same His merciful and great love dictates. I am very excited. In front of me is Mr. Yun Long Zhen, who is not a seismologist. From the perspective of the common destiny of all mankind, he can look far and far, and he will help me immediately, with best of his ability. Therefore, I am more confident. I feel that fate and scientific responsibilities have bound me and Mr. Yun Long Zhen, who are people of lofty ideals who care about the great love of mankind together. Therefore, on September 10, 2020, we officially registered the GU Institute of Earthquake Prediction, the world's only non-profit research institution for earthquake prediction, in Massachusetts, USA. It is a scientific research platform open to scientists, engineers, science enthusiasts and caring people all over the world who are enthusiastic about earthquake prediction. Mr. Zhen also became one of the founders of the world's only earthquake prediction institute, and became associated with earthquake prediction. The Earthquake Prediction Institute has just started, but has already stepped on a few footprints on the way forward. One of the most beautiful footprints is after the earthquake of magnitude 6.9 in Qinghai, China on January 8, 2022. Using the published data, our institute officially issued the type and intensity of the Aftershock forecast to the relevant Chinese authorities in an official form for the first time. Among them, we predicted on January 9 that there will be a strong aftershock with a magnitude of M=3.0+ at 5:41 on the morning of the 10th. The result was a strong aftershock of M=3.1 at 6:18 am. Very nice prediction of success. We Shocked domestic counterparts and they invited us to give lectures. Mr. Yun Long Zhen has been actively working with our research team, and we need your support.
