Shanghai educated youth Lin Chen opened his eyes and returned to Huangtupo in 1974.
While others were busy heading back to the city, he held a stack of breeding notes and plunged into the palm-sized experimental field.
Others laughed at him for being stupid: "The educated youth are almost gone, how many acres of wheat are they still guarding?"
Only the system panel lit up in front of his eyes: [New farmer system has been activated - cultivating high-yielding cold-resistant wheat seeds, reward: breeding technology +1, cold-resistant gene map fragment × 1]
From wearing a torn cotton jacket to guard the wheat seedlings on a snowy night of 30 degrees below zero, to overcoming the neck-stuck problem in front of a microscope in the laboratory;
From carrying dry grains on his back to promote improved seeds in communes, to standing tall and saying "Chinese grains, Chinese seeds" at international seed industry forums.
Next to him, there was always the girl named Su Wan.
She accompanied him on the field ridge, eating cold buns, copying data under an oil lamp, and stood up when he was questioned: "I believe in Lin Chen's wheat seeds."
From ten acres of experimental fields to tens of thousands of hectares of high-yield fields, from adobe houses to the podium for the country's highest technology award.
He devoted half his life to hard work, wrote his thesis on the land of the motherland, and built a solid foundation for China's grain depot with every grain of fine seed.
This is an epic of the times for new farmers, and it is also a deep feeling of standing side by side with you and guarding the mountains and rivers together.
Purpose: This article is based on the background of educated youth going to the countryside in the 1970s. It tells the story of the protagonist Lin Chen, who spent half his life cultivating improved seeds in the countryside with future breeding knowledge and a new farmer system. Adhere to ideals in the tide of the times, build a solid foundation for the national grain storehouse with hard work, while depicting the pure love walking side by side with Su Wan, and interpreting the responsibility for the country and the idealism of "writing thesis on the land of the motherland".
