“Famous Science & Technology Industrialist of 50 th Anniversary of PRC”, Li Changxiao is praised as “The Great Master of Green Copying”, who is recorded in GREAT DICTIONARY OF WORLD SCIENTIFIC EXPERTS AND TALENTS as “ Successful Chinese” by World Invention And Development Center in America. The invention of “The Technique of Efficient & Rapid Non-test tube Plant Clone”(TERNPC) has been put in the 50 Memorabilia of Science and Technology Development of China. Li Changxiao is now the executive director of China Hi-new Technology Industrialization Research Association, member of the standing committee of Hi-new Technical Expertise Committee of China Agricultural Technology Spreading Association, executive director of China Quality Inspection Association. He worked on the R&D of biotechnology from an early time and then first presented the idea that "Rapid propagation is a leading and high efficient industry". As a famous scientific industrialist, he has been putting “the Rapid Propagation Industry” he advocates into practice himself all the time.

   Li Changxiao, who was engaged in the teaching of Cell Biology, Cell Genetics, and Molecular Biology and took part in some scientific research in cell heredity, population heredity, cell cycle dynamics and bioengineering, got many achievements when he was in charge of a cell hereditary laboratory. In terms of human cell cloning, he gained a great deal of experience. Then he changed his direction to plant tissue culture in a biotech research institute in 1984 and went on with it in the next ten years. During those times he specialized in tissue culture and published more than 30 scientific research theses. He was the member of Biotech Committee of Northwest Five Province, leader of Tissue Culture Cooperative Group, deputy director of Ningxia Biology Society. From 1988, he set up Ningxia Kelong Bioengineering R&D Institute, Ningxia Kelong Industry And Commerce Company, and Beijing TERNPC Industrialization Co. Ltd. one after another. Clone Plant Web ( www.clonep.com ), Clone Industrialization Web ( www.clone-p.com ), Clone Elite Web ( www.cloneelite.com ) were established in 1997, which soon got deeply concerned in society. In recent years, Li concentrated his efforts on the industrialization of TERNPC and personnel training.

   The Technique of Efficient & Rapid Non-test Tube Plant Cloning (TERNPC) is a new rapid plant propagation system invented by Li Changxiao, which is perceived as a breakthrough as a result of his 25 years ' research and exploration. As a high-new tech, TERNPC is completely different from others. It shares a characteristic of “Two Low and One High”—Low Investment, Low Risk and High Profit. Thus TERNPC are widely accepted and becomes popular in production. 18 years' practice of application has proved that TERNPC is a double breakthrough of great significance to the tissue culture in modern plant biotech and the conventional methods of seedling producing in 2000 years of human history.

   TERNPC can be spread everywhere in china or out of china and work steadily. Now it has been successfully used in the propagation of more than 550 plants, showing a general effect. In 1995, TERNPC was world leading checked by patent retrieving and Document Information Center of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. After a long term reliable practice, it has been put into industrialization and got no objections in academia. The intangible assets of TERNPC is evaluated at 1.5604 billion yuan (RMB) by a authoritative assessment institution in Beijing authorized by Ministry of Finance in October, 1999. Confirmed by Sichuan Science And Technology Information Institute in 2000, Search Center of Shanxi Science And Technology Information Institute and Hunan Science And Technology Information Institute—first grade consulting organization of China—in April 2002, TERNPC still took the lead. No similar researches were reported. A new evaluation made on May 28, 2002 indicates that the intangible assets of TERNPC reaches 1.6288 billion yuan, which is the highest in agriculture-related techniques. Men of insight have a good prospect of TERNPC. As time flies, people cannot overestimate.

  TERNPC won the Gold Medal of the first Technological Fair of China Agricultural Science Town, Gold Medal of The Ninth China Invention Exhibition, Scientific and Technological Advancement Awards of Yinchuan of Ningxia Province. In 1995 it was put in the development plan of the key new and high technology of Yinchuan. In 1996 and 1999 TERNPC was one of the key scientific and technical achievements popularization plan of Ningxia province and was commended to National Scientific and Technological Committee for Popularization Plan of the national-level scientific and technical achievements. Achievements Office of National Scientific and Technological Committee and Rural Professional Technique Association of Chinese Technology Association then recommended TERNPC to the whole country. TERNPC was one of the Torch Plan of Sichuan Province in 2000, one of the Agriculture Industrialization Projects of Shanxi Province in November of 2001, one of the National High-tech Industrialization Advancement Projects in 2001. In April of 2002, Planning Commission of Shanxi Province declare TERNPC for Leading enterprise's project of the agricultural industrialization of the State Planning Commission. Many Kelong affiliated company have declared the National Scientific and Technical Innovation Fund, Scientific and Technological Anti-poverty Project of provinces and cities, Bioengineering industrialization especially supporting project, Project of Torch Program, Sparking plan project, the agricultural industrialization adjustment project, and great projects that invite outside investment.

 People all over the world pay much attention to plant propagation all the time. Plant tissue culture in modern time is almost still limited in the laboratory. Great investment, enormous cost and complicated technical steps make it hard to apply. And the seedlings are of low survival rate. There are many achievements in the lab, but they cannot be carried out in the fields. The ability to meet the great demand of large quantity and low price is out of expecting. In such condition the ideal productivity could not became true let alone industrialization. Conventional methods such as cuttage, graft, layer, have been used for nearly 2000 years by the most people. They are simple and easily spread, but with low propagating speed. The problem that it can't work successively is still to be solved.
