From the eyes of Kato Heng of Kurita Industry in the island country, a strong suspicion could be seen, and Qi Zheng just smiled.

Regardless of the status or reputation of the industry, if you want to win the government's open bidding, the competition comes down to technology and cost.

If he Qi someone "did it" himself, of course, he was sure that Kato Heng would not dare to look at himself squarely - but he would not be able to win.

This kind of public project allows the results of the research of the Jiagu laboratory, which has been "ignited" by Goldfinger, to be released.

Now the question is, can the laboratory's research on "biological purification of water environment" give surprises?

Qi Zheng couldn't help it, so he grabbed his mobile phone and called Li Fan from Jiagu Laboratory: "To what extent has the research on biological purification been reached?"

Li Fan is a scholar with weak letters, about 30 years old, but he is already the head of a separate research institute in Jiagu Laboratory.

In the sequence of Jiagu Laboratory, any research institute represents more than hundreds of millions of yuan in annual funding, as well as a large number of more critical independent project qualifications, which can be said to be stronger than many provincial research institutes at present, and there is less bureaucracy.

Theoretically, a "bio-decontamination of the water environment" project should not have such a status. After all, the company's investment in scientific research and experiments must be limited to economic considerations.

If you take the money of the Jiagu Group, you must consider the problem from the perspective of the system, and important animals and plants such as rice, wheat or pigs, cattle and sheep must be in the forefront of scientific research investment; no matter how bad it is, microorganisms such as brewer's yeast and rhizobia will also be of great benefit to the group's main business.

However, the resources used in the "Water Environment Biopurification" project are invested by Qi Zheng personally, or in other words, this is Qi Zheng's capricious "personal hobby".

In terms of personal enjoyment, Qi Zheng's quality of life is already better than 99% of the world's people - money is not spent, health and predictable longevity, and there are private jets for travel......

At times like these, career and interest are the best drivers.

Some people like to wake up in the middle of the night to see the microbes in the incubator, some people like to wake up at 4 a.m. and look at the streets of Los Angeles, and some people like to wake up early in the morning and face the sea and listen to the sound of the sea...... This is a difference in personal interests, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior.

In terms of political life, Qi Zheng has little interest in democracy and freedom, although the higher his status, the more he can know, even under the protection of the law, there are always some people who are unscrupulous beyond human cognition, and on the other hand, Qi Zheng hopes to use biological "evolution" to change the world.

After all, the study of living things by human beings is not about the proposition of wanting to know how many species of animals and plants there are in the world, but about knowing more about human beings themselves—to some extent, this is the need of human evolution.

If you think of this need as a hobby, it is probably the most expensive hobby in the world, and it requires a lot of resources to play it.

For Qi Zheng, the Spirit Array is a resource, and it is a resource that cannot see the light, and the means that can be made public is nothing more than "scientific research".

Qi Zheng has the right to allocate resources, and sometimes, he can be capricious.

Among the world's richest people, the most famous person in terms of personal investment in scientific research projects should be Bill Gates. In addition to poverty alleviation, his favorite fund is to invest in projects that can benefit future generations, commonly known as "black technology projects".

New energy technologies such as innovative batteries and carbon capture technology, medical technology research for some major diseases, and strange scientific and technological supplies such as waterless toilets and deodorant perfumes...... It fully embodies the "little hobby" of the rich.

Compared with Gates, Qi Zheng is not so "flowery", and his preferences can be summed up in one sentence - "cultivate more new efficient and practical creatures".

The "Water Environment Bio-Purification" project is one of them, and almost all of the R&D funds are Qi Zheng's private investment, but they share some resources such as personnel and equipment in Jiagu Laboratory. Therefore, for these project leaders, Qi Zheng's words are better than that of Chen Jianzhang, the boss of the laboratory.

Although Li Fan is a scholar, he is pedantic at all, and for the real "gold master", he opened his mouth and came: "So far, we have cultivated dozens of super aquatic purification plants. ”

Qi Zheng on the other end of the phone couldn't help but hold his forehead.

"Super XX Creature" has almost become a unique name in the Jiagu system, and is generally used for some kind of new creature that has been successfully "magically transformed".

Especially the guys in the laboratory, the simple and rude "Super XX" at every turn is simply a waste of names.

However, although it is simple and crude, it can only be named "super" after achieving a leap forward in key features. Qi Zheng is not surprised that the "Water Environment Biological Purification Project" team is familiar with the operation, but dozens of kinds?

"Professor Li, are you sure you're right? are there dozens, not dozens?" Qi Zheng smiled helplessly, and said: "Professor Li, now is not the time to cheat funds, I want mature varieties that can be used when I take them out......"

The relationship between investors and scientists is the most subtle when it comes to investment and results.

If there is one kind of person in the world who spends the most money, it must be scientists.

If you want to say how much money does ordinary people need to make money for enjoyment? Learn from Bill Gates to buy a small island in the Maldives and take a private jet to and from his mansion with whale sharks; or follow the example of a local tycoon in the Middle East and buy a private jet converted from a Boeing 747, which is about the limit, and can even be said to be extremely capricious.

The willfulness of a woman can also be added to the luxury of expensive jewelry and Hermes and the like.

But is an island a cost to scientists? Is an airplane a big deal?

There are no islands in the world, just because scientists are poor and can't afford to fund them, and similarly, if the world's organisms are not included in research, they just don't have the money.

Taking biologists as an example, to cultivate a new crop, investors, whether individuals, institutions or countries, have only two choices, or they do not invest, or they have to spend N times the amount of money to buy an airplane, and it is a perennial expense.

No more sensitive than the research projects invested by Jiagu Group itself, Li Fan and his team of private investment research by Qi Zheng are more sensitive.

After all, Qi Zheng can willfully invest money, or he can willfully choose not to invest money again. These project leaders have to give the "gold master" chicken blood all the time.

However, Li Fan's confident voice came from the other end of the phone: "BOSS, I'm not cheating on funds, there are really dozens of super aquatic purification plants that can be put into commercial use." ”

On the other end of the phone, there was no sound for a long time, and it took a long time to hear Qi Zheng's voice faintly: "I'll go back immediately, you prepare the research report of the project, and in addition, pay attention to confidentiality." ”
