And Jiefang explained that she was planting greenery in the desert, fulfilling the last wish of her son, Yang Ruizhei, who died in 2000 as a result of a traffic accident in Japan, where he studied at the university. After watching a report on combating desertification in North China, the guy told his mother: “After college, I want to go home and plant trees, a whole forest.” However, the desire of the young man was not destined to come true. His death was a very strong blow for his parents.
