After forty years of development, China has made a series of achievements in hybrid rice breeding, such as threeline hybrid rice, twoline hybrid rice and seed production technology systems. Four highlights of hybrid rice breeding research were summarized, and four difficulties were analysed. The importance of strengthening basic theoretical research and training advanced breeding talents in hybrid rice breeding in China was described.
