Dear Honorable Professor Xie,

I just learned from the CAS web site that you have won the National Highest Science and technology Award. Please accept my sincere admiral and congratulations!

A few years ago when I was working at IHEP, I had the honor of receiving the book from you that you authored; I have since learned tremendously. You are the role model of every accelerator physicist.

Wishing you great health and continuous guidance on younger generations of accelerator physicists including me.
