Zhou has been offered chances to go abroad and exchange experience with others.One of the visits to the United States made Zhou realize that even though China was playing a leading role in rice research in the world，its agricultural industry was still behind other developed countries.After returning to China，Zhou began using his skills to help the country in agriculture.Instead of staying in an air-conditioned office，Zhou spent most of his time in the field.Breeding is hard，as it is heavily affected by sunlight and temperature.So Zhou always took care of his crops 24 hours a day. Things don’t always run smoothly.In August，southern China experienced very high temperatures.This had a serious influence on the crops in Zhou’s field.However，Zhou never got downhearted.Zhou believed it opened a window for him to do further study.He said，“Sometimes we just need to find ways to overcome high temperatures，and this also helps us choose the rice.” After going through tens of thousands of tries，Zhou and his team succeeded in creating new kinds of rice to meet the needs of people.
