那是1967年的仲夏,我从侨乡的一所中学毕业,当即加入千千万万知识青年上山下乡的伟大行列,回到久别的故乡务农。凭着一双勤劳的手,一副铁肩膀和一丁点儿聪明,不久,我就当上了生产队青年科技小组的组长。那时,我除了用一把锄头修地球,一条扁担挑贫穷之外,业余时间就搞科技实验。 It was Midsummer in 1967. I graduated from a middle school in a hometown of overseas Chinese and immediately joined the great ranks of thousands of intellectual young people going up and down the mountain and returning to my hometown in Jiubie. With a pair of hard-working hands, a pair of iron shoulders and a little smart, I soon became the head of the production team’s youth technology team. At that time, apart from repairing the earth with a hoe, and picking up the poverty from a pole, I experimented with science and technology in my spare time.
