At 8:00 p.m. on April 10 (Sunday), under the guidance of the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee, the third season of the original large-scale cultural program "China in the Story" of the CCTV Comprehensive Channel of the Central Radio and Television Corporation will be broadcast for the eighth period, leading the audience into the life of Sun Jiadong, the winner of the "Order of the Republic", who has struggled for China's aerospace industry, and paying tribute to the Chinese astronauts represented by Sun Jiadong.
He has been engaged in space technology research for more than 50 years
Tell the story of Sun Jiadong's aerospace life from multiple perspectives
As the youngest founder of the "two bombs and one satellite", Sun Jiadong has been engaged in space technology research for more than 50 years and is one of the pioneers of artificial satellite technology and deep space exploration technology on the mainland. From China's first missile, the first artificial satellite, to the first Beidou navigation satellite, the first lunar exploration satellite... This "grand master" of China's aerospace has led Chinese astronauts to write and witness one milestone after another in the history of continental spaceflight.
Through the way of dramatic interpretation, this program tells the story of Sun Jiadong who has never forgotten his original intention, kept his mission in mind, and witnessed and participated in the extraordinary chapter of China's aerospace from scratch and from weak to strong. In addition, Yang Hui, commander-in-chief and chief designer of the Beidou-2 satellite system of the Fifth Research Institute of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, and Ouyang Ziyuan, chief scientist of China's lunar exploration project, will jointly tell sun Jiadong's astronautic life.
For thousands of years, we have never stopped imagining and fascination with the bright moon above our heads. In 2004, China officially launched the lunar exploration project, and Sun Jiadong served as the first chief designer. At that time, he, along with Luan Enjie and Ouyang Ziyuan, was known as the Iron Triangle of Exploring the Moon. Recalling that more than 10 years ago, Chang'e-1 successfully entered the lunar orbit and began to fly around the moon, Ouyang Ziyuan could not hide his excitement: "I hugged Sun Jiadong, and I was so excited by this matter that I would only say the four words 'around', China finally achieved it, and once reached its goal." Yang Hui has worked with Sun Jiadong for many years, and at the scene of the program, she also used more vivid details to outline Sun Jiadong's daily work status.
In addition, the program team will also walk into the History Exhibition Hall of the Communist Party of China to display precious items closely related to the development of the mainland's aerospace industry for the audience - the tape reproduction of the music of "Dongfang Hong" and the lunar soil samples brought back by the Chang'e-5 returner, so that the audience can better understand and feel the magnificent years that Sun Jiadong has personally experienced.
Dedicate the "Order of the Republic" to your wife
Over ninety years old, he insisted on pushing his wife for a walk in the park
"If the country needs it, I will do it" is a sentence that Sun Jiadong often hangs on his lips, and he also uses his own practical actions to perfectly interpret the screw spirit of "doing a line, loving a line, drilling a line". And what is Sun Jiadong in life like? This issue invites Sun Jiadong's granddaughter Dani to share the touching moments of Sun Jiadong's later years.
In Wang Dani's impression, Grandpa Sun Jiadong was amiable, and when he was with Grandma Wei Suping, his face was always full of happy smiles. In the 2019 family photo, Sun Jiadong also specially hung the "Order of the Republic" on his wife's chest, "it should be that grandpa feels that his honor, behind which there is a grandma's pay, grandma has always been quite pampered by my grandpa."
It is worth looking forward to that Wang Dani also brought a video taken by herself. In the picture, Sun Jiadong carefully pushes his wife in a wheelchair to walk in the park. "Grandma will instruct Grandpa to go this way, go over there, and then Grandpa will obediently push her forward, maybe this is the time when the two of them enjoy their own two-person world," Wang Dani said.
Today, although Sun Jiadong is 93 years old, he is still concerned about the future of the motherland's aerospace, and the students of the small satellite team of Beijing Bayi School have received his guidance. At the end of the program, this new generation of space enthusiasts also showed the latest research results to everyone in the video link, expressing their determination to pursue their dreams.
