Professor Stephen William Hawking was born on 8th January 1942, (exactly 300 years after the death of Galileo) in Oxford, England. His parents’ house was in north London but during World War II Oxford was considered a safer place to have babies. When he was eight, his family moved to St. Albans, a town about 20 miles north of London. At the age of eleven, Hawking went to St. Albans School and then on to University College, Oxford (1959), his father's old college. Hawking wanted to study mathematics although his father would have preferred medicine. Mathematics was not available at University College, so he chose to study physics instead. After three years and not very much work, he was awarded a very important prize in natural science.

In 1963, Hawking got a serious disease and he was not expected to live more than two years. Just before his disease, Hawking met Jane Wilde, and the two were married in 1965. The couple had three children before they ended up their marriage. Hawking got married again in 1995 but divorced in 2006.

Hawking was also a popular writer. His first book, A Brief History of Time was first published in 1988 and became an international best seller. In it, Hawking hoped to communicate questions about the birth and death of the universe to people who didn’t know the universe much. He wrote a children’s book George and the Big Bang with his daughter. Hawking said the book would be a bit like Harry Potter but without the magic. “It explains the wonders of the universe,” said Hawking, while he was on a visit to Hong Kong for the first time over 10 years ago.

In 2014, a movie called “The Theory of Everything” was on show. It was based on Hawking’s life. Hawking praised the film and said it made him think over his own life. “Although I'm disabled, I have been successful in my scientific work,” Hawking wrote on Facebook in November 2014. “I travel widely and have been to Antarctica and Easter Island, down in a submarine and up on a zero-gravity flight. One day, I hope to go into space.”

Dimash Kudaibergenov was born in a family of singers in May, 1994. Then he entered the entertainment business officially in 2010. He was the winner of the Grand Prix Salvic Bazaar 2015 in Vitebsk in Russia. Dimash rose to fame in January when he first took part in “Singer 2017”, a singing competition TV show in China. Before he sang, his handsome outlook was the focus. But when he opened his mouth, he won the hearts of all the Chinese audience.

Before he came to China, one of his three wishes was to see pandas. And that came true last Sunday when he was named the ambassador( 大使) for “I'm in China” in Chengdu in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, the first stop of the “I'm in China” program.

His other two wishes were taking part in the TV show and meeting Jackie Chan. Now all three wishes have come true. But that’s not all. He even got a chance to feed pandas, received a gift from Jackie Chan and became a household name after the singing contest.

“I am grateful that the visit to Chengdu provided me a chance of close contact with pandas. I hope I can travel across China to see its different landscapes,” said Dimash. “I love China! I’m in China.”

Apart from feeding pandas, Dimash was also invited to savor Sichuan hotpot, a famous local dish, and visit Wide and Narrow Alley. During the tour he said he was inspired by the tour and plans to hold a concert in Chengdu, a hometown of many Chinese pop stars and winners of talent shows.

“The Kazakh people are very fond of Chinese culture, and I think people here will also enjoy our Kazakh culture.” He added.
