In the vastness of the universe, human beings are very small, in the long evolutionary process, life is very short. However, unlike any other species, human beings can learn, cultivate themselves, and perfect themselves, and the preciousness of human beings lies in their own selves. What kind of person we want to be, only we can decide.
Yuan Longping was born in 1930, originating from De'an County, Jiangxi Province, because of his research and contribution to hybrid rice, affectionately known by the nation as ? Father of Hybrid Rice? He was awarded the country's highest honor this year? *** and the Order of the State? , and before going to Beijing to receive the medal he also went to a special haircut, his hair at that time was not done in any high-end barber club, but in a dozen square meters of a small barbershop cut.
1, the imperial famous cut
The small store is located in Hunan Province, near the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the store is called ? Cao's famous cut? Ping?
Cao is actually married and has children, and is almost 50 years old, but in Yuan's eyes, she is still a child, and has always been like caring for their own children to help Cao. Cao is a hairdresser, but not a senior barber store barber or very top hair designers,she is just a very ordinary member of the ten million hairdressers, she used her own hands of the clippers for the neighbors to cut hair, but also for the old Yuan hair cut, and become the old Yuan's royal name clippers.
She has a very small store, but it is very well equipped with all the equipment for hair coloring and perming. The barber store opened in 2003, now also opened for 16 years, but in fact, the store's location is not very advantageous, usually not many people come and go, mainly by some old customers to bring revenue, once Cao also want to close the store. But because of Yuan's words, he insisted.
The barber store just started to operate a few years, Cao for the guests to cut a haircut for only 5 yuan , in fact, not earn much money, she wanted to change a place with a lot of traffic to try again. It happened that Yuan went to her house at that time, and when they talked about it during the haircut, Yuan was surprised and said that she had no place to cut hair after Cao left, so it was really not possible for her to do it. In the Yuan old man's retention, Xiao Cao then stayed.
After that, no matter whether his hair is too long or not, Yuan would go to Xiao Cao's store to get a haircut when he has free time, and chat with Xiao Cao, just like an old father who cares about his own children. Always ask Cao how his children are doing in school and how his business is doing. The two of them are just like talking to each other as if it were a family affair. Cao also said that Yuan always went in through the small door at the back of the store, and did not look like a big scientist at all.
2, the old man
A big scientist over 90 years old, very approachable, take Xiao Cao, Xiao Cao's store has been open for more than ten years, Yuan went to cut hair countless times.
In order to attract customers to Xiao Cao's barber store, Yuan also specially inscribed the name of Xiao Cao's store, which reads ? Cao's Famous Scissors? Ping, inscribed by Yuan Longping, 2OO3? The National Day? The name of the shop was written in Chinese. The company also gives Cao a little extra money for each haircut.
Yuan went to cut hair many times, some people let Cao take some photos to put in the store to do publicity, but she said to be as low-key as Yuan. Until September this year, before Yuan was ready to go to Beijing to receive the award, went to Xiao Cao's store to get a haircut, especially happy to take a haircut photo. Yuan also signed the photo and wrote ? The National Day of the People's Republic of China. The photo was signed by Mr. Yuan, who wrote "February 19th, National Day" on it. Cao accepted Academician Yin Yulong's proposal to hang the photo in his store to express his admiration and love for Yuan.
With the increase in age, coupled with the work of the laborious, Yuan's body is gradually not as good as before, in December last year, Yuan was hospitalized in Hainan, although not particularly serious disease, but during the hospitalization period, Yuan was only thinking about two things.
One thing is the latest research results of hybrid rice, the other thing is the longer and longer hair. In fact, Yuan was a handsome man when he was young, but he has been particularly thin in his old age, and he pays close attention to his image. In the hospital, he always talked about Xiao Cao, wanting him to come and give him a spiritual haircut.
After hearing this, Cao closed his store and took his tools and flew from Changsha to Hainan to cut Yuan's hair. The first time I saw him, I was in the middle of the night, and he was in the middle of the night, and I was in the middle of the night. The first time I saw him, I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him, and I was so happy to see him.
3, plain and simple
Yuan Lao is not only a person who values his feelings, but also his low profile and warmth is also known to us, and his achievements are recognized by the world.
He has won numerous awards in his life and made very outstanding contributions to hybrid rice, but this world-class scientist has never had a shelf. The usual life is very simple, wearing dozens of dollars of T-shirts and plaid shirts,Yuan old man said he is just an old man, wear so good nothing, clothes as long as fit on the line.
Yuan not only said so, but also did so, he is also very warm to those around him, and his success naturally can not be separated from his unremitting efforts.
Once a reporter asked Yuan the secret of his success, Yuan said he had no secret, only eight words of experience: knowledge, sweat, inspiration, opportunity. For the application of science, books and computer knowledge is very important, but only these are not enough, the real work can produce real knowledge, in the books, computer can not plant rice, only in the experimental field to really go to practice in order to plant rice. For opportunity, Yuan said that opportunity always favors the person who has the heart, with experience, with the pursuit, in order to seize the opportunity.
It is true that knowledge is the foundation, enriching our brains before we can create. Sweat, on the other hand, is inevitably needed in the process of practicing, through which we can gain more inspiration and turn to improve ourselves continuously. In this way, when the opportunity in front of us, we have the ability to seize it, so as to realize what they want to achieve.
