[Forty years]

We locked up a moving desert

【The Taklimakan Desert, the second largest desert in the world】

[The oasis around the desert is a good base for pearl cultivation]

[But the Taklamakan Desert is a mobile desert]

[The quicksand is approaching the surrounding small towns at a speed of 3-5 meters per year]

[So the sand fixation task here is extremely critical]

[Local people spent 40 years traveling around the Taklimakan Desert]

[Sand-fixing plants have been planted along the 3046-kilometer edge, with the last planting point being Yutian County]

Many local residents participated in the planting.

[Nearly 30,000 plants were planted]

[Locking the world's second largest mobile desert]

[And the plants they planted were roses]

【40 years of persistence】

[Maybe this generation will never see the oasis]

[But I did it without hesitation]

[This requires not only a lot of time, but also a lot of energy and love for this country and this land]

[The rose of the last kilometer is a gift from the past to the future generations]

[ Even if it is as barren as a desert, we can still grow round and white pearls and plant the most romantic roses. ]

[Also to comfort the ancestors]

[Plant roses, and there will never be quicksand]

"Finally I heard someone talking about us Yutian [tears]

Our place is not just a small place covered by sand, this is our home that we have protected for many years. From the local government to ordinary people, everyone will plant sand-fixing plants. Our barren land will also grow roses. These roses are grown by the efforts of all the people."

"I remember doing this question in high school, empowering the desert rose industry"

"I went to the Taklamakan Desert for military training at school. After just a few kilometers, I felt exhausted and sweaty. I couldn't imagine how difficult it was for our ancestors to fix the sand. I heard that there were frequent sandstorms before, but I only experienced one in the six months I was at school. I thought it wouldn't snow in the desert, but last winter there were several light snowfalls. Nature is really amazing, and the spirit of our ancestors is admirable."

"Just like in our Chinese mythology, it is never the gods who save the world, but the people who save themselves from the water and fire again and again."

“I have a dream: to enjoy the coolness under the rice plants; I also have a dream: to turn the desert into an oasis”

"The rose suddenly reminded me of the roses in The Little Prince, which seemed to be in the desert as well."

"Rose: I was born under the blue sky and grew up in the sea of ​​sand. I can be the whisper between lovers, or I can be the bond of quicksand."

"Dayu controlled the floods, Jingwei filled the sea, and Yugong moved the mountains. This is China's constructive civilization. Wherever we live is the best place to live. Man can conquer nature!"

"Only in China have people never thought of leaving this land from ancient times to the present. This place was not originally suitable for people to live in, but it was because the ancient Chinese people transformed it that such a suitable land was left and this beautiful land was full of flowers [tears]"

Many officials under the sky who wanted to improve people's livelihood fell into thought: People in later generations made roses grow in barren lands, can we also ensure that the poor people of today no longer suffer from the cold and have enough food to eat?

This process takes a long time and requires a lot of energy.

If future generations plant sand-fixing roses, they may not see the roses bloom for a generation. Those of us who are working to improve people's livelihood may not see the results in our lifetime.

However, when he thought of the thin but kind faces of his fellow villagers before he passed the imperial examination, and the withered, rough and cracked hands that were able to support him to pass the imperial examination.

He thought: I also want to do my part for these people, just as they have helped me.
