“Focus on what you want in your heart, and make every breakthrough never impossible.”

No matter how difficult the road ahead is, , moving forward is their only decision. The reliability of manned launch vehicles has increased from 0.90 to 0.99. From the first successful launch to the recovery of the developed rocket, Yiyi’s experience with the Chinese aerospace team inspires every Chinese who still insists on doing difficult but right things.

The public welfare short film “Determination to Seek Truth II” jointly produced by HBN and ChinaWomen’s News has been launched. HBN sincerely invites every fan to join in the pursuit of truth, forge ahead, and experience the efforts of Chinese astronauts to practice “exploring the vast universe and building aerospace The mission of building a strong country.

This time, HBN teamed up with 中国Women’s News to continue the chapter of truth-seeking from a year ago: with “The Determination of Seeking Truth II” and the chief designer of the new launch vehicle of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, Yi Yi, conducted a precious communicate. She said – “I believe that although the road is difficult, the journey will be successful.”
