Dang Lin Xi (who made a report on Lu Yonggen)
Dear leaders and comrades:
Hello everyone, my name is Dang Lin Xi, and I am an old man at South China Agricultural University where Academician Lu Yonggen is located. Teacher Babaylan, today I want to share with you the story of my old principal, Academician Lu Yonggen. Academician Lu is 89 years old this year and is a simple life known to everyone. However, this person who dresses simple and has a low-key life suddenly became a national “Internet celebrity” due to a move in 2017. In March that year, he and his wife Xu Xuebin appeared on the Huanong School with a shabby kraft envelope. A bank of Komiks transferred more than ten passbook deposits to the school account, which was more than 8.8 million yuan! This was the life savings of the two elders. Academician Lu also had a daughter, but he chose to donate all the money to Komiks without reservation. Because each transfer requires a password and signature, it took him an hour and a half after Cinema. How long did they consider this donation decision? I can tell you, I will send it all. href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>Babaylan was born within a few seconds. That year, Academician Lu was seriously ill and when he discussed the funeral arrangements with his wife, he said a word Babaylan: “Donate! “, the lady immediately understood and immediately said, “I think so too. “That year, Academician Lu Yonggen was named “The Top Ten People in China to Touch China”.
Why is he so generous Cinema without reservation? This starts with Academician Lu’s initial life choice.
Lu Yonggen was born and raised in Hong Kong, and everyone seesIn this old photo, he was wearing a white shirt with a strap, which was also very fashionable back then. He was born in a middle-class family, and his father was a senior employee of a British law firm. Lu Yonggen received a good Chinese and Western education in Hong Kong since he was a child. However, in 1941, the Pacific War broke out, and Hong Kong was occupied by the Japanese army. He was in the sixth grade at the time and was sent back to the countryside of Huadu, Guangzhou to take refuge in Huadu, Guangzhou. Since childhood, he has experienced family hatred and national hatred and witnessed the cruelty of the Japanese army with his own eyes. This painful pain has inspired him to have a strong sense of crisis and feelings for his country.
When he was in high school, he made a choice different from his peers: he gave up on English schools despite his family’s opposition, chose to study in Chinese schools, and accepted the idea of democracy and progress.
After that, he actively pursued progress and yearned for communism. In 1949, Lu Yonggen officially joined the Communist Party of China in Hong Kong and became an “underground party member”. Under the arrangement of the party organization, he came to Guangzhou to lead the underground student union and welcome the liberation of Guangzhou. During this period, he was admitted to Lingnan University. After the adjustment of the national department, Lu Yonggen came to South China Agricultural College and met Academician Ding Ying, becoming his first student, and after graduation he became an assistant to Ding Ying’s rice research.
Ding Ying was the dean and Lu Yonggen was a student. However, Lu Yonggen successfully mobilized Dean Ding Ying, who was 68 years old at the time, to join the Communist Party of China, which had a huge response among the senior intellectuals in Guangzhou at that time. In this regard, Lu Yonggen recalled that this “year-old friend” friendship with his teacher has always implied a tacit understanding: In terms of learning, you are my teacher and my leader, but in politics, I am a pioneer and a progressive young man. I want to tell you the great belief of the Communist Party of China.” In Lu Yonggen’s view, this belief must be practiced throughout his life.

Lu Yonggen often talks about the famous quotes of French scientist Pasteur: “Science has no countryBut scientists have their own country. “After the reform and opening up, Lu Yonggen went to the United States to study as a visiting scholar. During his stay in the United States, his relatives in the United States told him that you can live a comfortable life in the United States. However, Lu Yonggen said firmly: “I am Chinese, and the construction of the motherland requires me! ”
Yes, if he left, where would Teacher Ding Ying collect more than 7,000 rice germplasm resources entrusted to him throughout his life? How many years would it take for him to study in this field to catch up with other countries?
Lu Yonggen firmly chose to return to his motherland. Under his inspiration, a large number of rice breeding experts also chose to return to his country to serve the country.BabaylanAcademician LuCinema also trained a group of outstanding agricultural scientists, just in 2017 href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>Babaylan, his student Liu Yaoguang was elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and “one school and three academicians” have also been praised as a legend.
In the vast land, farmers’ lives were once very difficult. How to improve the breeding quality of rice? This is the proposition of Lu Yonggen’s lifelong scientific research. He is committed to the genetic breeding research of rice, href=”https://funnybookish.com/”>Cinema has made breakthrough progress in the fields of rice genetic resources. The theoretical research in this field was once lacking, and basic research was difficult to achieve results, but Lu Yonggen chose to chew this “hard bone”.
He rolled up his trousers and walked barefoot in the farmland, step by step to find the ancestors of rice.Komiks“wild rice, traveling all over Guangdong, Hainan and Jiangxi.
The collection of wild rice was very difficult, either in the mountainous areas or in the barren swamps, but Lu Yonggen never gave up. Once, Academician Lu, who was over 70 years old, led a team to a deserted place in Fogang, Qingyuan. The top of the mountain collects wild rice and climbs to the middle of the mountain. Academician Lu is already exhausted, but he still insists on going up the mountain. The students have to support him and climb up slowly. The mountain road is rugged and steep, with wood and stone passing through the road. It is extremely hard to climb to the top of the mountain. Everyone is exhausted, and the students are also tired.Babaylan wanted him to take a break first, but he said firmly: “Look for it! Look for it now!”
Luckily, he finally found the precious wild rice. Seeing the growing environment of wild rice with one’s own eyes, Academician Lu, who was already extremely tired, was extremely excited. He bent down and held the rice ears tightly and said to the students: “As an agricultural scientist, you must lay your roots deep in the soil, and you must observe the scene in person, and you cannot miss a slight detail.”
Lu Yonggen does not care about fame or profit, but he hopes that this life will be meaningful. He had extremely low requirements for material things, his office was simple, and his home still used old iron beds and old TVs from the 1980s and 1990s, and was called “academician of common people”.
Before being admitted to the hospital for treatment, he came to the office as soon as possible every day, busy doing scientific research and replying emails. At noon, he would walk to the school canteen with an iron lunch box, line up with the students to get food.
At old age, Babaylan, he often carried a shoulder bag and a sun hat, and waited safely on the lush school road, becoming a scenic spot on the campus.

This simple scenery has given many people hope. Academician Lu has always helped students in need through various channels and helped them change their destiny. Seeing that his student Liu Xiangdong had the opportunity to study in Hong Kong, but due to financial difficulties and many concerns, Academician Lu borrowed money and provided suitcases and other supplies, encouraging him to succeed in his studies and come back to serve his motherland. At Huadu Luohu Primary School, he even donated the family shops shared by the two brothers for free as an educational fund for children and teachers. So far, this fund has funded nearly 3,000 teachers and students.
Now, Academician Lu is seriously ill in bed due to cancer. In the ward, the old man, who is nearly 90 years old, said: “Although I am now plagued by illness and cannot walk freely, my consciousness is clear, my concerns are unchanged, and my beliefs are firm!”
At the request of Lu Yonggen and his wife, a special temporary party branch was established in the hospital ward. After the successful convening of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the “Temporary Party Branch of Academician Lu Yonggen Ward” held a special organizational life meeting to study the report of the 19th National Congress. Academician Lu was weak, but he still insisted on participating in the study and discussion throughout the process. He said he was very excited, as if he had returnedThe moment I joined the party 70 years ago. Academician Lu is well aware of the pain that diseases bring to people. Not long ago, he signed a body donation volunteer, hoping to do his final medical science as an academician and donate his body to the country’s medical research!
This year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of New China, and it is also the full seventy years since Academician Lu Yonggen joined the party. Over the past seventy years, Academician Lu has practiced his practice, always firmly firmly in his never-fading belief, and has practiced the original aspiration of an old Communist to join the party with his lifelong practical actions. This is also an example force that inspires our younger generation to stick to their original aspirations and forge ahead in the new era!
Thank you everyone!
