‘Extraordinary future: Chinese science stories you don't know’is produced by the famous British science writer and documentary director, Christopher Riley. Christopher has a keen interest in Chinese science. With a PhD in planetary science, he has keenly and enthusiastically documented the stories of 15 Chinese scientists and technologists.

On December 5, 2020, Cui Weicheng, first deputy chief designer of China's manned submersible Jiaolong, led a scientific expedition to 11,000 meters in the Mariana Trench, incisively showing the Chinese people's spirit of exploration.

Lidi, the chief scientist of "Eye of the Sky" FAST, reviewed the construction process of Eye of the Sky in China. Academician Wang Yifang went into the high temperature and high humidity underground to build Jiangmen Neutrino Experimental observation station.

From improving crops to feed a world population of nearly 8 billion, to tackling diseases in old age and building a sustainable society, China is leading the way in science. From the deep ocean to outer space, China is on the frontier of human exploration. The film is not only about inspiring and ambitious scientific achievements, but also about the persistence, failure, tears and dreams of Chinese scientists on the way to exploration.

Christopher's documentary gives a panoramic view of China's technological achievements, helping Chinese scientists share their achievements with a wider audience outside China. The documentary, created in an international context, promotes patriotism and innovation among Chinese scientists. They take the bull by the horns and scale the heights of technology. While watching the film, the audience is not only proud of the achievements of Chinese scientists and engineers described in the documentary, but also inspired by their determination to pursue their dreams.

In recent years, some Western media, unaware of China's real national conditions, have produced fake news and spread false information about China, tarnishing China's image in the international community and deluding international netizens. Therefore, we also need more authoritative and objective foreign media workers who are trusted by foreign audiences to truthfully record China and show China's power. It’s necessary to give an in-depth interpretation of China's scientific and technological frontier as well as many other aspects on international communication context. Let the people of the world know that China's achievements shape not only the future of China, but also the future of all mankind.
