Were disrespectful, they weren't widely circulated, and carried little real risk of reputation damage. But under President Xi Jinping, Chinese authorities have become increasingly intolerant of any voices that criticize national heroes -- or question the narrative about them. And in the run-up to the ruling Communist Party's centenary, on July 1, that's only escalated. Chinese agronomist Yuan Longping, who cultivated the world's first high-yield hybrid rice strain in the 1970s, died on Saturday. Yuan devoted his life to developing rice strains that yield higher harvests after the Great Chinese Famine that killed tens of millions between 1959 and 1961. His variants helped alleviate famine in developing countries across Asia and Africa. In 2019, Yuan was awarded the Medal of the Republic, China's highest official honor, by Chinese President Xi Jinping. On social media this weekend, some questioned why he had never won a Nobel prize. What's lesser-known to the public is that Yuan had tried to avoid politics. In an interview with Chinese magazine People in 2013, he said he'd never joined the Chinese Communist Party or its youth wing. "Sometimes you say the wrong things because you don't understand politics," he said.
