Yuan Longping, winner of the "Order of the Republic", academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and director of the National Hybrid Rice Engineering and Technology Research Center, died in Changsha at the age of 91 at 13:07 on May 22, 2021 due to multiple organ failure. Over the years, there have been many film and television dramas based on Yuan Longping. In addition to the movie "Yuan Longping" broadcast by the movie channel today, there is also the TV series "Meritorious Service" that is expected to be broadcast this year.
Yuan Longping said humorously,
I hope that the actor who plays him must be handsome
"Meritorious Service", directed by Zheng Xiaolong, is filmed and told the story of Yu Min, Shen Jilan, Sun Jiadong, Li Yannian, Zhang Fuqing, Yuan Longping, Huang Xuhua, Tu Youyou, Zhong Nanshan and other nine winners of the "Order of the Republic", and is expected to be broadcast in September this year.
In April this year, "Meritorious Service" exposed a trailer. In the film, Yuan Longping, played by Huang Zhizhong, carries a mission to find good seeds and looks for them in the field with a magnifying glass. In the process, he encountered setbacks and was temporarily dismissed from the second class of farmers. After finding The Cave Indica, he raised his hands and shouted, "Found!" "It was moving.
Huang Zhizhong once recalled in an interview that before playing Yuan Longping, he read a lot of relevant information about the elderly, and let him say that what touched him the most was Yuan Longping's affectionate memories of his mother, "Some people say that I changed the world with a seed, and I know that this seed was planted for me by my mother when I was young." The elderly man is willing to reduce himself to a romantic and determined child, and for the seeds planted by his mother when he was young, he strives to grow and be born to the sun.
As an actor who once played Yuan Longping, Huang Zhizhong also posted on Weibo today to remember, saying that he did not believe it was true until now, "A while ago, he also said that when the film was released, he went to visit you for guidance, and he would never have this opportunity." Your dream of cooling under the grass and the dream of hybrid rice covering the world have come true, and it's time for you to rest. ”
In the TV series "Meritorious Service", the "Yuan Longping" unit is written by Song Fangjin. It took more than half a year to create the script of "Yuan Longping", in the process, Song Fangjin impressed Yuan Longping with sincerity to accept an interview and deeply observe his life. "I didn't expect that the 'Father of Hybrid Rice in the World' lived in such a simple 20-square-meter house, because of his bad stomach, he rarely ate out, the requirements for material life were too low, and his only hobby was to go to the rice fields to see his results." But at the same time he is a humorous and more serious person. Song Fangjin told reporters that Yuan Longping hoped that the actor who played him must be handsome, and Huang Zhizhong, who later starred in the role, really looked like him after setting makeup.
Rigor is another deep impression that Yuan Longping left on Song Fangjin. On the same day, a certain party team in 2020 was also interviewing Yuan Longping, and they hoped that Yuan Longping could record a New Year greeting to the audience, one of which was "the motherland is a seed, harvesting the fruit of happiness every year", but Yuan Longping pointed out that the word "harvest" is not accurate enough, the accurate statement should be "bearing" the fruit, and the party team also finally adopted Yuan Longping's opinion. Song Fangjin said that Yuan Longping's rigorous attitude of careful words and sentences allowed him to seize the "soul of the thing" in creating this script in that moment. His lines were provoked by him, which was not unrelated to Yuan Longping's previous role as a teacher. After contact, a lot of details have been accumulated to make the character image gradually plump.
In Song Fangjin's impression, Yuan Longping is not only strict with details, but also a very strong-willed person. Hybrid rice was previously considered impossible to succeed in the world, and the development of a variety of crops takes 4 to 8 years, which is a very difficult and long process. Yuan Longping chose to go from Hunan to Hainan to plant rice, three seasons a year, will accelerate the progress of scientific research, but even so, it took more than ten years to initially establish a hybrid rice system. The birth of the world miracle stems from Yuan Longping's long-term adherence to this scientific research.
The movie channel broadcasts the movie "Yuan Longping" five times
In addition, according to the official Weibo news of CCTV Movie Channel, the Movie Channel broadcast the movie "Yuan Longping" for the audience five times online. In this film, Academician Yuan Longping personally starred in his old age, and his unremitting exploration and difficult practice throughout his life and decades of unremitting exploration and difficult practice not only solved the problem of eating Chinese, but also brought the gospel to mankind. Today, we remember Elder Yuan with a movie, and we will always remember and miss it forever.
It is reported that the movie channel's "Classic Frequency" online film screening activities were originally planned to broadcast "The Party's Daughter" and "Wildfire Spring Wind Fighting Ancient City" today, and in order to commemorate Academician Yuan Longping, the movie "Yuan Longping" starring Yuan Longping himself was temporarily rebroadcast to commemorate Elder Yuan and remember the "father of hybrid rice".
The film was released on March 19, 2009, directed by Shi Fenghe, written by Tan Xiao and Luo Ju, and starring Guo Jinglin and Xu Jun. At the end of the movie, Yuan Longping personally appeared on camera, starred as an elderly self, and was interviewed by foreign reporters. Elder Yuan humorously explained his two dreams in English - "The Dream of Cooling under the Grass" and "The Dream of Hybrid Rice Covering the World".
