Homo sapiens.

"OK." James nodded.

Chapter 391 Dancing on the Egg

Luzon Branch.

Bandon Island.

Inside a secret research base.

Bagheera stood aside and reported respectfully: "Sir, this is the information just received."

"Say it directly." Li Qingye stared at a large pile of genetic data, which was recently discovered by several biological laboratories under Homo sapiens, 753 new human gene fragments.

"The Tianzhu Branch of the Field Business Department reported that Bodhidharma intends to invite America, the Europa Consortium, Lucia and the Far East to invest in Tianzhu."

Hearing this, Li Qingye still remained expressionless.

"Bodhidharma is very determined and plans to fully open the market to these four forces."

Li Qingye turned to the next page of the paper, and said casually, "He also likes old vinegar?"

"Is there a need to respond?" Bagheera asked quickly.

"There's no need for that, it's just a dying struggle." Li Qingye didn't care: "Just let Jianxiong and Zhifan discuss it. He likes to dance on eggs, so let us appreciate his dancing posture."

"I see." Bagheera nodded.

Li Qingye continued to immerse himself in scientific research.

Compared with fighting for world hegemony, Li Qingye is actually more interested in the recently discovered new human gene fragments

These newly discovered human gene fragments are not traditional chromosomal genes, but small molecular genes from other organelles.

Small molecular genes were not discovered by geneticists due to the imperfect detection technology before, and some small discoveries have not been made until recent years.

Homo Sapiens, which has strong manpower and material resources, has invested 57 professional scientific researchers in the field of biology. The resources invested this year are converted into gold dollars, which is estimated to be around 1725 billion gold dollars.

At present, the Department of Biology under the Science Business Department has a total of 172 research institutes and 2537 laboratories under its jurisdiction.

This is definitely the most powerful biological research force in the world.

The Homo sapiens company can stand on its own in the scientific community and fight against the Western scientific community, not by Li Qingye alone, but by a huge scientific research group with a whole system.

Thanks to such a huge scientific research system, even in the unpopular field of small molecular genes, there are 5 laboratories doing research.

Li Qingye kept increasing the size of the Science Division, in fact, it was also for Homo sapiens company.

On the one hand, because Homo Sapiens has biochips, the talent training speed is very fast, and the overall quality is relatively good.

On the other hand, Homo sapiens companies continue to promote mechanization, automation, and high efficiency, resulting in a continuous reduction in the number of ordinary workers required by the agricultural industry.

Homo sapiens now has a lot of staff training efforts, even farm workers and construction workers need a lot of professional knowledge.

So this leads to a problem, that is, many new human employees with very high levels of knowledge are working in ordinary positions.

This is a waste of human resources, and it is also easy for employees to feel that their knowledge is useless, which leads to some self-defeating thoughts.

Therefore, in the process of promoting automation and mechanization, the HR Department, in conjunction with other departments, began to set up some brand-new positions to fully mobilize the talents of these employees.

For example, the Science Division is recruiting new students every month. Currently, the number of registered researchers in the Science Division has reached 732 million.

If the supporting management personnel, auxiliary personnel, and service personnel are included, the number of employees under the Science Division is 2475 million.

And Li Qingye is very clear that with the outbreak of productivity, the number of employees required per unit of production capacity in industrial agriculture will gradually decrease.

For example, in the production of ready-made garments, the application of a large number of automated equipment can already achieve unmanned tailoring.

As a result, a large number of tailors need to consider changing jobs.

Li Qingye's idea is to gradually increase the proportion of creative jobs and eliminate those simple mechanical jobs.

Although it is impossible to achieve the level of scientific research for all employees, at least 10-15% of the young and middle-aged labor force must be engaged in creative positions.

As time goes by, Homo sapiens' scientific research strength will become stronger and stronger.

The achievements in the field of small molecule genes are the embodiment of the scientific research strength of Homo sapiens.

Therefore, in Li Qingye's view, the dying struggles of Bodhidharma and other Tianzhu elites are not worth mentioning at all, and technology is king.

The foundation of Homo sapiens is science.

World hegemony is not as important as the development of science. After all, with the improvement of technology, the means available to Homo sapiens companies have also increased, and world hegemony and exploration of the universe will become easier.

Bodhidharma wants to play a balanced egg dance, so let him do it.

As the Trisolarans said: The Lord doesn't care.

……

That night.

The North American Council of Cities on a Hill once again held a video conference.

All the directors who received the urgent report from the black boat fell into a tangle.

It was Thomson Mellon who looked at the expressionless Thomas Morgan and others, and he said helplessly:

"Friends, we have no choice, do we?"

James Rockefeller nodded: "Homo sapiens must be prevented from entering Tianzhu, otherwise we will lose West Asia."

As soon as they heard about West Asia, everyone knew that they could not back down. After all, America's world hegemony was in a precarious state.

If West Asia is lost, the oil-dollar system will completely collapse.

Thomas Morgan also felt the urgency of the situation: "I agree to support Tianzhu, and Bodhidharma was forced to compromise this time. As long as he is willing to fully open the market, it doesn't matter if he uses it once."

All the people present are smart people, and they understand that the two sides are just using each other.

Bodhidharma needs America to help him fight Homo sapiens, but it doesn't mean that the other party really wants to join America.

The City on the Hill Council did not intend to annex Tianzhu, but to maintain stability. As long as Tianzhu is not used by Homo sapiens and America's sphere of influence in West Asia can be stabilized, they will be satisfied.

As for the idea of ​​driving Homo sapiens out of Tianzhu, whether it is Thomas or James, they all know that this is almost impossible.

Unless they can raise Tianzhu's economic level to the same level as Homo sapiens, they can resist Homo sapiens' sugar-coated shells.

Otherwise, with an income of several hundred yuan a month, those low-level Tianzhu people would not have the idea of ​​working their lives for the Brahmin masters.

Moreover, to improve the living standards of more than a billion Indians to a level similar to that of Homo sapiens, America sold itself, and there is no way to do it.

James Rockefeller took a puff of his cigar and asked calmly, "Thomas, what do you think about helping Tianzhu?"

Thomas pondered for a while: "We definitely can't give money directly. We can engage in food aid just like Homo sapiens, and first break Homo sapiens' food control over Tianzhu."

"Well, I agree. The Kangaroo Country doesn't stock a large amount of barley and wheat. ABCD can be shipped directly to Tianzhu, which can revitalize the Kangaroo Country's agriculture by the way." Thomson Mellon suggested.

James went on to say: "We can also support a group of foundries and relocate those factories in the Far East to Tianzhu."

When they heard that they were going to build a factory, many people immediately showed hesitation. Obviously, Tianzhu's business environment is really impressive.

James' expression became gloomy about this: "This time Bodhidharma will take action, and the black boat can also assist secretly. Everyone show me their housekeeping skills. For those disobedient guys, I will directly send them to the earth plane."

"OK." Dupont nodded with a smile.

These big families can survive in America not only because of money, but also because of their cruelty.

Whether it is DuPont, or Mellon, or Rockefeller and Morgan, their history is full of blood.

Chapter 392 The Price Roller Coaster

end of June.

Tianzhu Lightspeed has reached a series of economic cooperation agreements with America, Europa Commonwealth, Far East, and Lucia, completely opening up the market.

American companies wielding American knives also quickly invested heavily in and wooed local Brahmin and Kshatriya families around Mumbai and Delhi.

These Brahmin and Kshatriya families are not fools. At least a large part of them are sober-minded and willing to cooperate with America and other great powers.

One more competitor means they have one more choice to avoid being manipulated by Homo sapiens.

Therefore, the enterprises of the great powers developed rapidly in various parts of Tianzhu, and a large amount of banknotes were scattered into the magical land of South Asia.

For this situation, Homo sapiens was very calm.

Economic crop subsidies and dumping of low-priced grain continue to be maintained.

at the same time.

Homo sapiens has quietly opened up a second battlefield.

The major iron ore producers in the Kangaroo Country had to reduce production in their mines because Homo sapiens dumped a large amount of iron ore at low prices in the international market.

After more than half a year of production reduction, the production reduction of Kangaroo Iron Mine has reached 70-80%.

The large iron mines in Western Australia have been sealed up, a large number of miners have lost their jobs, and mining dressing and transportation equipment have been shut down and placed in temporary warehouses.

Pandora, who is in charge of the Oceania branch, is drinking afternoon tea leisurely in Sydney.

She looked at her watch, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

As a "white man" who looks like a mixed race, Pandora looks very ordinary and runs a bookstore in Sydney.

Although the Black Ship and the Kangaroo Country are very vigilant against the employees of the Homo sapiens company, the monitoring of immigrants from Asia has been strengthened a lot.

But Pandora didn't come from Asia, but from Latin America, and with the appearance of that Caucasian, she was not included in the focus of local attention.

She looked at the deserted leaves on the street, and there was only peace in her eyes.

It's just winter in the southern hemisphere.

Suddenly a white man appeared in front of her: "Beautiful Anna, are you free tonight?"

"Sorry, I'm not interested in you." Pandora waved her hand.

The man said reluctantly: "I traveled to the Northern Territory some time ago and collected a lot of flower and plant specimens. Do you really want to come and take a look?"

"I only like flowers for a moment."

After pestering for a while, the man fled in despair.

Pandora looked at the man's back, and said silently in her heart: The Northern Territory has completed the layout work.

at the same time.

In the BHP Billiton mining area in Western Australia, tens of thousands of cockroaches quietly entered various equipment warehouses and began to do things with precision.

The security guard in charge didn't notice any abnormalities, and continued to play games on the computer as usual, without checking the equipment at all.

After all, the warehouses in this kind of mining area are surrounded by wilderness and mountains, and no outsiders are close at all.

These security guards have gotten used to the long-term stability. They all know that there will be no problems in the equipment warehouse, so they play games or chat and eat on their own.

In fact, even if they went to check now, there was no way to find any traces of cockroaches.

On a large transport vehicle.

More than a dozen cockroaches entered the gearbox, and then sprayed some liquid on the gears. The liquid contained bacteria that could corrode metal, which could accelerate the rust of the gears and reduce the strength of the teeth of the gears.

Of course, these bacteria are disposable and can only reproduce for 6 generations. After 6 generations, the bacteria enter a state of self-destruction.

In addition to gears, there are transmission shafts, fuel tanks, engines, brake systems, etc., all of which have not escaped the black hands of cockroaches.

Although the corrosive bacteria sprayed by the cockroaches take a while to form corrosive damage, but at this time these equipment are eating ashes in the warehouse, and time is not a problem.

What's more, the Field Service Department also knows how to measure, and will not directly destroy these devices, but reduce their service life.

In fact, as long as the protective layer of some parts is damaged, the internal corrosion rate will also be accelerated.

At the same time, some cockroaches also spray plastic-decomposing fungi everywhere.

90% of the iron ore mining areas in Western Australia are concentrated around the Turner River. This area is located near the Tropic of Capricornus and has a typical tropical desert climate and tropical savannah climate.

This climate is very suitable for the reproduction of plastic-decomposing fungi, especially the mining of iron ore requires a large amount of fresh water, which will increase the air humidity around the mine and further increase the reproduction speed of fungi.

As long as you leave some hidden damage to these mining equipment, when the equipment is restarted, it will definitely fail frequently.

These large-scale mining equipment are not only expensive to build, but also very expensive to maintain and repair.

Homo sapiens is full of malice towards the iron ore producers in Kangaroo Country.

After dismantling the mining equipment of these guys, the international iron ore price can be raised by the end of the year, prompting the iron ore producers in Kangaroo Country to expand their production capacity.

At that time, they find that the equipment keeps breaking down, and there are only two options, one is to keep repairing, and the other is to purchase new equipment.
