YUAN LONGPING: Twelve years ago, in a movie in which Yuan was involved, he was questioned if the rice you researched was as important as the atomic bomb.

This is a movie that Yuan participated in 12 years ago, and the scene at the end where he answers the foreigners' interviews is performed by Yuan himself. Yuan was fluent in many languages, and naturally English was not a problem.
In those days, Yuan's insistence on his own course seemed to be at odds with the academic atmosphere around him, and he was even criticized, opposed, and cut off from research funds, but Yuan still insisted.
In the long ten years of exploration, some people constantly questioned, even questioned, the atomic bomb a few years to get out, a small rice more than ten years can not get out why?
In these ten years, the rice seedlings were destroyed many times, such as not by the students private stash a few seedlings were spared, the emergence of hybrid rice do not know how much longer.
The movie is also interspersed with the love story of Yuan's youth, but the name in the play is not the real name of the lady.
