Chapter 365 Future Agricultural Development Direction
The scene was a bit bloody, but compared to slaughtering raw cattle, cutting beef tissue from a culture vessel was quite passable.
"Can I record the video?" Jiao Xiangdong looked at the equipment in the laboratory and the beef grown on the container, very curious and excited.
"Of course!" Xiao Ming said, "You can shoot a video." ”
The video does not capture the confidential information of the laboratory, and after the large-scale promotion of "cultured meat" in the future, such glass containers will be promoted to various factories, so it is not classified.
After obtaining Xiao Ming's consent, Jiao Xiangdong filmed the whole process of taking meat.
Fresh beef is cut and served on a plate.
The texture of the meat, including the blood vessels, is the same as that of real beef.
Gao Siqi cut a small piece with a knife, dipped it in a little mustard sauce and handed it to Jiao Xiangdong, and said, "Professor Jiao, do you want to try raw beef?" ”
Gao Siqi half-jokingly said: "Under the conditions of our laboratory, there will be no parasites and no bacterial contamination, but I don't dare to try it, but many boys in our group love it." ”
"See this no. Gao Siqi shook the mustard in his hand and said, "Mustard has become a must-have item in the laboratory. ”
Xia people like to eat after cooking, and they will almost naturally refuse raw and cold food.
Jiao Xiangdong also rejected the fresh, juicy raw beef, but he was sure that the beef was grown in a sterile environment in the laboratory.
The delicate colors also seem to say, "Come eat me, eat me." ”
"Then I'll taste it. Jiao Xiangdong is also ready to open a new world of life today.
The raw beef is put in the mouth, and the juice is mixed with the sauce and comes out.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Jiao Xiangdong quickly wiped his mouth and apologized, then chewed the beef and swallowed it three times and two times.
He was impressed by the smooth texture and tender taste.
Jiao Xiangdong nodded while eating and said: "Although I am not very cold to raw beef, but this taste is indeed acceptable, if you can fry steak or grill it, the taste should be better, not much different from real beef, and even better than the taste of yellow beef and yak meat sold in the market." ”
Jiao Xiangdong gave a very high evaluation, "After I go back, I will form a complete report to report to the above, and the food safety and other departments will issue you a sales and health license and agree to the listing of the product." ”
"If we ignore the production method, there is actually no difference between beef and Kobe beef available in the market, but the cost is less than one-tenth of that of beef on the market," Gao said. ”
Gao Siqi calculated the cost for Jiao Xiangdong, "Let's not talk about Kobe beef, let's take ordinary yellow beef as an example, from the purchase of calves to the cost of cowsheds, feed, medicines, etc., the cost of a cow from calves to slaughter is 14,000 soft sister coins." Under the conditions of systematic and industrial production in the laboratory, our cost is about 15 yuan per catty, and the cost will be lower after large-scale mass production in the future. ”
Jiao Xiangdong nodded with satisfaction and said, "This will greatly reduce the cost of living for the people." ”
Jiao Xiangdong still reminded: "Even if we know that the production process of the product is completely healthy and pollution-free, and the product fully meets the relevant standards, some consumers may not be able to accept such a product." So I think the above would agree with Jiangcheng to carry out small-scale experiments. ”
Jiao Xiangdong also said: "Please don't be too little for the two million funds, the symbolic meaning is greater than the practical significance, and I hope your experiments will continue." This experiment can be said to be small, but it is also possible to say that it is big. But Mr. Xiao, I would like to remind you that if it succeeds, it is related to the country's food security. It is even related to the issue of reform, transformation and upgrading, and its role is no less than that of your company's quantum chip. ”
Unlike the utilitarian eyes of some experts and scholars, Xiao Ming saw sincerity in Jiao Xiangdong's eyes.
"Twenty catties of Kobe beef for Professor Jiao, a little gift, you're welcome. Xiao Ming said, "This will sell for 4,000 a kilogram in Shanghai." ”
"The name can be changed, it's called Jiangcheng Beef. Jiao Xiangdong laughed heartily.
Satisfied, Jiao Xiangdong sent the beef he brought from Jiangcheng to the national laboratory for testing, and he himself began to write a research report on the socio-economic impact of bio-agriculture.
In the cafeteria of Pangu Technology Company, a small range of supply of Kobe beef steaks in the laboratory began at a price of 50 yuan per serving.
When the signboard was played, the employees of Pangu Technology still couldn't believe it.
The famous Kobe steak is only 50 per serving, and the cost is not enough.
All the experiments in the life science laboratory are kept secret, and no one knows the truth about the beef except for the members of the experimental team.
"Could it be a fake?"
"What kind of fakes, Pangu Technology's canteen will sell fakes? What are you kidding! It must be the company that has given us a subsidy, so let's buy it boldly." ”
The window was full of people, and the employees were satisfied with the steak and found a seat to sit down and began to feast.
"It's delicious! It's chewy, it's what it feels like!"
"It's the same as what I went to the East to eat! It's delicious! It's only fifty-one, I'll pack one and go back to my girlfriend to try it later!"
"Yes, it would be better with red wine, much better than the Blue Frog's steak in college town!"
Pangu Technology's treatment is good, many employees will travel abroad when they are on vacation, and they have also tasted Western or Oriental steaks, whether it is a comparison of weight, color or taste, the Kobe steak in the canteen has an advantage.
"Fifty yuan to be able to eat authentic Kobe steak is also a benefit of our company!"
Thanks to the enthusiasm of the staff, a thousand steaks were sold out in less than an hour.
The steak window, which has just opened, has become one of the favorite windows of the employees.
Xiao Chu recorded all the evaluations of the employees and the sales of the steak, and finally formed a data graph and fed back it to the laboratory.
"It's the truest performance of everyone. Gao Siqi applied: "Xiao Ming, before the end of the year, we need mass production. ”
Gao Siqi still likes to call Xiao Ming by name, and the reason why he is in such a hurry to ask Xiao Ming for mass production is because Gao Siqi knows that after December, Qinghe I equipment will be mass-produced, Avatar 2 in cooperation with Cameron will be released, Pangu Science and Technology Park will be completed, and there is still a big thing waiting for Xiao Ming, and it is difficult to say whether Xiao Ming's shadow can be found at that time.
Gao Siqi handed Xiao Ming a document, which is a completely factory beef production line, and said: "If I am given a large enough factory and some technicians, I am sure that I will occupy the beef market in Jiangcheng within a month." We can use Jiangcheng as a pilot to see if our plan is feasible."
