Ms Li: Tell us more.
Daming: As a young man, he saw that many Chinese people suffered from hunger, so he dreamed of developing better rice plants.
Ms Li: What did he do
Daming: He attended college and received his degree in 1953. Then he started work. At first, over 3,000 of his experiments failed. But Yuan had a strong will. Whatever happened, he never gave up. He once said, "Every time I fall down, I'll get up and try again."
Ms Li: That's inspiring!
Daming: Finally, he developed new kinds of rice plants, including one that produces 30% more rice than normal. He also created rice that can grow in poor soils.
Ms Li: Amazing!
Daming: Yuan didn't stop there. Once again, he worked for a greater dream: rice that can be grown all over the world. He travelled abroad and gave advice about growing rice.
Ms Li: He was a good role model.
Daming: He's simply the best! His rice is grown in over 60 countries now. His work helped feed millions of people a year, so he was a true hero.
Ms Li: Exactly! He gave the world victory over hunger.
