Homecoming of Rebirth

What they want to establish is a sample bank of global species, not only in China, but also in the whole world with Monsanto's shadow.

They collect animal and plant samples back, conduct genetic map mapping and analysis, and then provide materials for their advanced genetically modified laboratories.This is also the basis for Monsanto to monopolize nearly 100% of the GMO market in later generations.

Let's put it this way, in agricultural production, there are two factors that have the greatest impact on crop yields: one is insect damage; the other is weeds.

To deal with pest infestations, farmers usually spray large amounts of pesticides.The side effect it produces is pesticide residues, which can easily exceed the standard.

The most common way to deal with weeds in the world is to spray "glyphosate herbicide", but this herbicide is a "broad-spectrum killer" herbicide, which can kill almost all green plants, including crops.

So when farmers spray, they either have to apply it when the crops are not sprouting, or they have to be careful to target weeds so as not to harm the crops.

The reason why Monsanto dominates the genetically modified seed industry is that he solved these two problems by using "genetically modified" methods.

For example, Monsanto's "insect-resistant" corn seeds are implanted with a gene segment called "Bacillus thuringiensis".

This bacillus, a Gram-positive bacterium, has insecticidal activity against insects of the order "Lepidoptera".

The main pests of corn, such as corn borers, armyworms, and cotton bollworms, are all Lepidoptera. If they eat insect-resistant corn implanted with this gene, they will feel sad.In this way, the corn itself can prevent insects, and there is no need to spray insecticides.

In terms of herbicide resistance, as we said above, "glyphosate herbicide" can kill almost all green plants, but there are exceptions, a plant called "petunia" will not be killed.

Monsanto implanted the "petunia" gene into soybeans, corn, cotton and other crops, so they are not afraid of glyphosate.

how to say?

There is no distinction between good and evil in science, and technology is good technology, absolutely leading the world.

But whether it is safe or not, this can only be measured by time and conscience.

Of course, Monsanto has always had no conscience, and safety issues are not in its consideration.

To put it bluntly, there are many people in Yingjiang's country who don't want to see it, and punish it to death if something happens, but he earns a lot, and he has no rivals.

At this moment, clutching Xu Xiaoqian's hand, the two snuggled up in the gazebo, looking at the distant mountains and rivers, Qi Lei felt a little uncomfortable.

Xu Xiaoqian didn't know the meaning of what those foreigners said. Well, Xu Qian could understand a little, but she didn't understand the meaning.I don't even know what Qi Lei's expression is.

how?Are my hands rough?Why are you frowning?

In fact, what Qi Lei is worried about is: You know that this silly Company B is not a good thing, but now...you have nothing to do with him.

Although the current country has the concept of food security, it has not been expanded to the level of sophistication in later generations.And Monsanto is reasonable and legal, so there is nothing you can do about it.

Now, even if Qi Lei responds to Lao Zhangren, or even Lao Qin, it may not be taken seriously.

This is not the same as the last time, a biological sample was collected, and this kind of foreign company must have reported it to the relevant department. Even if Qi Lei told the situation of the later generations, it was at most just an association.

Besides, you let me meet you a few years earlier!

Not against anything else, but against the losses that my rabbit will suffer from soybeans in future generations, and against the fact that I have to buy your genetically modified soybeans, and I have to try to stop it.

But now, at this time point, the soybeans should have been successfully developed, and it would be too late to do anything.

Because this matter cannot be left to my rabbit, my rabbit has actually done very well, even after 20 years, I did not let their soybean seeds come in.

However, such a large increase in soybean consumption is uncontrollable. You are the only one in the world who doesn’t grow soybeans, but you can’t stop others from growing them!

You can't buy it or not! !

"Ai!" Youyou sighed, Qi Lei was very upset when he heard it.

But over there, Manager Wen and Maguire didn't know how Qi Lei was feeling, they continued to work while chatting.

Apparently, Manager Wen didn't quite understand Maguire and the others' work, and was only temporarily pulled in as an interpreter to deal with uninvited guests like Qi Lei who broke in suddenly.

"Dr. Maguire, why are you so devoted to this kind of mechanical work? In the eyes of us in finance, the returns are too low."

Maguire smiled, "Maybe this is the difference between finance and scientific research."

"You are very loyal to tricks, just like now, you and Dong are cooperating to export and import the rice in Shangbei. You only need to go around the sea to make high profits. From the perspective of our scientific researchers, Worthless!"

When Manager Wen heard this, he didn't feel offended, but smiled instead.The voice was not loud, but with pride, "Dr. Maguire, it is this kind of meaningless thing, and you Monsanto is also involved in it! Dong is going to use Monsanto's brand to package Shangbei rice."

Xu Xiaoqian: "..."

Qi Lei, "..."

Although Manager Wen spoke very fast and deliberately lowered his voice, in the quiet environment deep in the forest on the top of the mountain, he could still hear a general idea, and both of them felt a sense of enlightenment.

It turned out that Dong Zhanlin planned to make quick money like this, no wonder!

Xu Xiaoqian looked at Qi Lei nonchalantly, "I'm going to tell my dad!!"

Qi Lei shook his head slightly, squeezed Xu Xiaoqian's hand, "No hurry, just listen."

At this time, Manager Wen also subconsciously glanced at the gazebo, seeing that the two of them were already hugging each other, completely forgetting themselves, and felt relieved.

And he was still laughing secretly in his heart, but he could use the relationship between these two children with Dong Zhanlin later.

Stop talking about business matters, and said to Maguire: "Go on."

Maguire shook his head, "Finance is the moth of society. I don't like tricky behavior. But scientific research is different, we must explore step by step. Only by enriching the genetic library of biological samples can we find more Even better excellent research material.”

Manager Wen nodded. Maguire belongs to the standard image of a technician, with high IQ and low EQ. You can't argue too much with him.

"Maybe what you said is right, but the world needs finance as well as scientists."

Maguire nodded in agreement, and then added, "But science must be more important than finance!"

Manager Wen's face darkened, and he decided not to talk to this guy anymore, it's so ugly!

However, he didn't say it, Maguire hasn't said enough, he has always looked down on those businessmen.

"Wen, what I said is true, without us, you can't make money. Monsanto is today, relying on technology, technology investment regardless of cost. We invest 300 million US dollars in technology research and development every day! "

Manager Wen: "..."

Qi Lei and Xu Xiaoqian over there are also speechless, 300 million... What's more, it's US dollars, which is equivalent to more than 2000 million RMB.

It seems that Monsanto's achievements in genetically modified technology are not accidental.

Over there, Maguire continued to show off to Manager Wen, "The projects we are developing include soybeans, corn, wheat, cotton and rice, covering almost all major grains in the world. The company's future development strategy also revolves around our research unfolds."

"In the near future, Monsanto's genetically modified grains will rule the world, including your financial industry."

This is not without exaggeration, Manager Wen really can't bear it anymore.

"Dr. Maguire, I think you should keep a low profile! Don't forget, this is not the United States. Be careful of your business opponents, let alone underestimate China's mobilization capabilities."

Glancing at Qi Lei and Xu Xiaoqian over there, "If these words spread, they will try their best to surpass you!"

But he didn't want to, Maguire laughed, "Chinese? Stop joking!"

He also glanced at Qi Lei and Xu Qian over there, "Don't say they don't understand us, even if they do, there's nothing they can do."

Manager Wen frowned, "What do you mean?"

Maguire, "The Chinese are too behind in genetically modified technology. They are still very primitive and cannot reach our level. Even if we do nothing, they will still not be able to catch up in 20 or 30 years."

"After listening, what can I do?"

Maguire smiled, this person has no EQ, "This is called absolute strength, without any fancy!"

Over there, Xu Xiaoqian gritted her teeth.

This is not the Chinese people who are used to being bombarded by the self-media in later generations, let alone listening to other people's stories through the screen of your mobile phone.

This was in 99, a child in the system, with a righteous heart, made irresponsible remarks in front of her, and blatantly laughed at her. Xu Xiaoqian was trembling all over, it was too bullying!

However, he was unable to refute.Because what Maguire said is right, our country is indeed a little behind in many ways.

In fact, it's not just a little bit behind.

My rabbit's first "Development and Business Planning of Transgenic Anti-Technology" was promulgated in 99, and it was a few months later.

Even after 20 years, I will rise to prominence, but in terms of genetic technology, the high patent barriers built by the West make it difficult for me to surpass, so I can only endure silently.

In fact, patent barriers are the main reason for the failure of many domestic industries to develop.

At this time, Xu Xiaoqian's face turned red, and she realized for the first time what shame is.And the source of this feeling is not your fault, just because your motherland is backward and too poor!

Xu Xiaoqian suddenly understood why Tang Yi went to the capital to protest. Perhaps at that moment, Tang Yi's mood was the same as hers.

Looking at Qi Lei, his face was frighteningly cold: "I'm angry!"

I saw that Qi Lei also had bulging veins on his cheeks, which is exactly what the later generations said, except me, no one can say that she is not good!

It was the time of anger, but Maguire was still showing off.

"Let me give you an example. Just last month, we found a wild soybean sample in Mudanjiang. After preliminary measurements, the oil yield of this sample is 16% higher than that of your existing soybeans in China."

"Do you know what this means? My lab has solved the problem of soybean herbicide resistance and yield. Just add the oil-rich gene of this wild bean to my results. Then, I will create a kind of, High-yielding, herbicide-resistant soybean varieties with higher oil yields."

"At that time, the largest soybean consumer market in China will belong to you businessmen!"

"Then tell me, do I get the credit, or do you guys do the finance?"

……

Maguire was showing his sense of superiority as a scientist, but when Qi Lei heard this, it was another matter.

"Hmm~~~~!?" Qi Lei raised his brows here, turning the clouds to see the sun.

What the hell?Have you produced genetically modified soybeans yet?Moreover, the source is wild soybeans in Northeast China?

This matter... is a bit interesting.

Originally, Qi Lei only knew a little about Monsanto. He really didn't know that the origin of Monsanto's genetically modified soybeans was in China, and it came from Longjiang.

According to his inference, genetically modified soybeans have only recently come out, and they should have been in the laboratory for a long time.

Who would have thought, there is such a thing?

Then this is...

I couldn't think of any good way at first, but now I brought it to my door.

He whispered to Xu Xiaoqian: "Have you heard clearly? He said he wants to monopolize our soybean market."

Xu Xiaoqian bit her lower lip with an angry expression on her face: "Yes, I heard it clearly!"

"I'm going to tell my dad not to cooperate with them."

Qi Lei laughed out loud in his heart, this is really not going to die if you don't die!How could it be so simple to tell the old man?

Hehe smiled, "This is not a matter of non-cooperation!"

Xu Xiaoqian raised her eyebrows, "What do you mean?"

Qi Lei Yinyin: "This is giving us a big gift!"

Although Xu Xiaoqian didn't know what great gift Qi Lei was talking about, but... she instinctively licked her lips.

Then, "Fuck him?"

Qi Lei, "Fuck him!"

Pulling up Xu Xiaoqian, "Go, it's uncomfortable to have a light bulb, let's go back!"

Over there, Manager Wen and Maguire looked very happy, and finally left.

It was Qi Lei who warmly greeted Maguire, "Goodbye~!"

It made Maguire inexplicable, do you know him well?

……

After descending the mountain, Qi Lei went directly back to the guest room in the resort and made a phone call in the room.

"Hey, Old Bei, I'm Qi Lei, do you still remember me?"

The old Qin on the opposite side was quite strange, why did this kid come here again after only half a month since we met each other?

"Is something wrong?"

Qi Lei, "I have something, I want to report to you."

Old Qin, "What's the matter?"

As a result, Qi Lei's first sentence shocked Lao Qin into a sweat.

"Someone wants to monopolize our soybean market, raise prices, control the lifeline of food, and then control our rice bowls!"

Well, Maguire just said: This largest soybean consumer market is the world of you businessmen.

As a result, Qi Lei made so much fuss, Maguire didn't even know, am I so ambitious?

Old Qin on the opposite side was dumbfounded, his first reaction was, what on earth do you guys do?Has such a life-and-death event happened to you again?
