Recently, the academy of opto-electronics held a seminar of Daheng Wang's academic thought and innovation contribution in Beijing that day, to look back Dr. Daheng Wang's outstanding scientific contributions and achievements to China's science career during his 73-years science career, which is joined by many institutes, such as Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, Shanghai Institute of Optics & Fine Mechanics, Xi'an Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Institute of Optics and Electronics, Shanghai Institute of Technical Physics, Anhui Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, National Astronomical Observatories, Center for Space Science & Applied Research and so on. Mrs. Youfen Gu, who is Daheng Wang's wife, attended this seminar.The leaders of the relevant departments, such as the former director of the State Commission of Science and Technology for National Defense Industry, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, general Henggao Ding, Vice Minister of the department of Science and Technology, Jianlin Cao, Vice President  of the Chinese Academy of Science, Jinghai Li, Vice President  of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Xiangwan Du, and so on, academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Chinese Academy of Engineering, such as Fuxi Gan, Yue Wang, Jiaqi Wang, Yuzhu Wang, Liding Wang, Songlin Zhuang, Zhenxing Liu, Songhao Liu, Zuyan Xu, Luguang Yan, Dexin Wu, Xingdan Chen, Jia'er Chen, Lianghui Chen, Dianyuan Fan, Guofan Jin, Zunqi Lin, Liwei Zhou, Bingkun Zhou, Shouhuan Zhou, Xun Hou, Zhaohuan Hou, Jun'en Yao, Songfen Gu, Yidong Gu, Zhiben Gong, Xiangqun Cui, Guangcan Guo, Shuisheng Jian, and so on, together with the representatives of relevant scientific research units, universities, institutes and enterprise groups, all attended the seminar. The meeting was chaired by Bin Xiangli,  the director of AOE.
The vice president of CAS, Jinghai Li attended the seminar, said: For decades, Mr. Daheng Wang witnessed the difficult process of China's scientific enterprise, from the exploration and start-up to vigorous development. Since his coming back in 1948,  he has made significant contributions to the developments of  China's optical research, optical instrument development, measurement science and national defense development of optical engineering, played an active role in the strategic decision-making of national science and technology. His academic thought is a valuable spiritual wealth of China's technology industry. His great contributions to the country and the people, and his highly responsible attitude towards the scientific work are worth being learned by other scientists.
Jianlin Cao, vice minister of science and technology, said, Mr. Daheng Wang has been engaged in optics and engineering research and scientific leadership work, has a deep academic attainments in the application of optics, instrumentation, measurement science, laser technology, space science and remote sensing technology. As one of the founders of China's '863' program, has proposed a lot of major proposalsm, such as, the establishment of the Chinese academy of engineering and the development of large aircraft. His responsibility to the country and the nation, together with the heart of a great scientist, is worth being learned, carried on, and promoted.
In the seminar, the vice president of CAE, academician Xiangwan Du, Tsinghua University academician Guofan Jin, and AOE academician Yidong Gu,  all made academic reports, entitled "The founder of 863 High Technology -- Mr. Daheng", "Significant contribution to the instrument career by Mr. Daheng", "Mr. Daheng Wang and China's aerospace career", respectively.
It was said that Daheng Wang engaged in a wide field of science and technology activities in various ways, and made great contributions in many aspects. He could not only be in close connection with reality, and give full pay of his wisdom and ability to do the researches, but also proposed major scientific development proposal to the state with beyond-sighted eyes. As a scientist, a scientific organizer, and a strategic scientist, Daheng Wang has gone through for decades the grand career of the revitalization of chinese science and technology, made great contributions. All his contributions to optics and other scientific and technological undertakings, and his academic thoughts and achievements in the culture of excellent scientists, and his major proposals to the national science and technology strategy, will be recorded in history.

Approved by the nominating committee of small celestial bodies of theInternational Astronomical Union (IAU), the asteroid 1997CP28 (Permanent ID No. 17693), which was found by Schmidt CCD Asteroid Project Team of National Astronomical Observatory on February 15, 1997, officially named by Daheng Wang Star. Jinghai Li awarded Mrs. Youfen Gu the certificate and orbit diagram.
Finally, a short documentary film about the 73-year scientific career of Mr Daheng Wang was played. The deep respect and sincere wishes from the leaders and experts of AOE and other orgnizers to Dr Daheng Wang, contained in the film, made the conference atmosphere to a climax.
