1. China’s atomic bomb exploded successfully

Under the unified leadership of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and through the joint efforts of a large number of scientific and technological personnel, cadres and employees, China’s self-made atomic bomb The first atomic bomb was successfully exploded in Lop Nur, Xinjiang on October 16, 1964. The successful explosion of the atomic bomb represented a new level of China's science and technology, effectively broke the nuclear monopoly and blackmail of the superpowers, and improved China's international status.

2. Hydrogen bomb test

On December 28, 1966, China successfully conducted a principle test of a hydrogen bomb with an equivalent of 300,000 tons. At 8:20 a.m. on June 17, 1967, the test of a 3.3 million-ton hydrogen bomb airdropped by an aircraft was successful. It broke the nuclear monopoly and nuclear blackmail policies of the superpowers and made great contributions to the People's Republic of China.

3. In 1965, the synthesis of crystalline bovine insulin was completed

Due to the main role played by two types of biopolymers, proteins and nucleic acids, in the phenomenon of life, the first artificially synthesized Proteins with biological activity have broken through the boundary between the field of general organic compounds and the field of biopolymers with concentrated information, and have taken an important step in the long process of human understanding of life phenomena.

4. Yuan Longping invented hybrid rice

His theory and research practice challenged the classical genetics theory, denying the tradition that "self-pollinated crops have no hybrid vigor" such as rice perspectives, which greatly enriched the theory and technology of crop genetics and breeding.

5. Create Hou's alkali production method

It is a method that combines the ammonia-alkali method and the synthetic ammonia method to produce two products, soda ash and ammonium chloride, at the same time. The raw materials are brine, ammonia and carbon dioxide - the waste gas when producing hydrogen from water gas in an ammonia plant. This method improves the utilization rate of salt, shortens the production process, reduces environmental pollution, reduces the cost of soda ash, and overcomes the shortcomings of the ammonia-alkali method.
