"Mr. Mo Bai, where are you, I want to see you in person. ”

Looking at the sentence posted by Yuan Lao on Weibo, a group of fans were dumbfounded.

"I'm going, even Yuan Lao can't stop being excited to see Mo Bai. ”

"Da Bai, my Bai, what the hell did you just say?"

"Dabai, are you really going to complete your Super Rice Project?"

"The first rice in the universe, the first rice in the universe. ”

Even the office, as well as other scientific researchers, were all stunned at this moment.

If they were still talking about Mo Bai just now, they were talking nonsense, but when Yuan Lao personally said that he wanted to see Mo Bai, these people all shut up.

Joke.

All the researchers in the hybrid rice are probably not as good as one-tenth of Mr. Yuan.

Even Yuan Lao is so excited, do you still have the courage to say that Mo Bai doesn't understand hybrid rice, that is simply too indifferent to Mr. Yuan.

"Mr. Yuan is too polite, how can I let you come to see me, a junior, it should be me to meet you. ”

Of course, Mo Bai knew the reason why Yuan Lao was shocked.

As the world's top expert in hybrid rice research, Yuan Lao definitely got inspiration from what he just said.

"No, no, I should go see you. ”

Yuan Lao immediately shook his head and said.

"No, no, no, if you say so, Old Yuan, that's the longevity of the boy. ”

"Well, I'm at the Beihu Provincial Hybrid Rice Research Base. ”

There was no way, and in the end, Yuan Lao had to agree to let Mo Bai come to see him.

"Okay, Mr. Yuan, see you tomorrow. ”

made an agreement with Yuan Lao, Mo Bai did not stop, but made up a lot of hybrid rice theories.

In his previous life, although Mo Bai had some understanding of hybrid rice, his understanding was limited after all, and in the face of everyone like Yuan Lao, Mo Bai was afraid that he would accidentally make a joke.

Fortunately, with Mo Bai's current IQ, all kinds of theoretical knowledge have been digested just by looking at it.

Combined with the theory of Mr. "Shi Mingsong" in his previous life, Mo Bai is already full of confidence.

The next day, Mo Bai took a plane directly and came to the Beihu Provincial Hybrid Rice Research Base.

Beihu Province is located in the south, which belonged to Chu in ancient times, and has been an important area for rice cultivation for thousands of years. Although hybrid rice is scientific research, it is the food ration that people eat daily, so the entire scientific research institution is established in the countryside of thousands of acres of rice fields in the suburbs.

When Mo Bai came to the scientific research base, Yuan Lao was standing at the door and waiting.

As soon as he saw Mo Bai coming, he had already greeted him personally.

"Mr. Mo Bai, yesterday you said you were coming, but you didn't expect to come today, which really moved Yuan. ”

"What Mr. Yuan said, I have long wanted to ask Mr. Yuan for advice. ”

"Hahaha, Mr. Mo Bai, I asked you for guidance when you came here. ”

"Mr. Yuan is too modest, in fact, I just have a big brain, and I always have some cranky thoughts, so I babbled a few words on Weibo. ”

"Scientific innovation needs your kind of brain, and sometimes we spend a lifetime, it is better to think differently like you. In recent decades, our hybrid rice technology has stagnated, and I think it's time for us to change our thinking. Come on, Mr. Mo Bai, tired all the way, go to the residence to rest for a while. ”

"No, no, no, don't be tired, Mr. Yuan, let's go to the farmland. ”

"Ah......h

Yuan Lao was a little surprised, but he was happy in his heart.

After a lifetime of research, in fact, he also hates that kind of polite flattery.

With so much time, it is better to take off your shoes and run to the field.

Before I saw Mo Bai before, although Yuan Lao also respected Mo Bai very much, and knew that he was a literary master, so he made a good courtesy. I thought that I would have to talk to him for a few hours when we first met, and even Yuan Lao specially memorized a few poems, wanting to get closer to Mo Bai, but I didn't want Mo Bai to go to the ground so directly.

"Elder Yuan, do you still want to chat with me for a few hours, or do you still want to discuss poetry and poetry with me?"

Mo Bai joked to Yuan Lao.

"Hahaha, Mr. Mobai, interesting, interesting. I'd love to talk to you about poetry and poetry, but I'm a farmer, and I've been farming all my life, so where is there any level to discuss poetry and poetry. Since Mr. Mo Bai is so interested, let's go together. ”

"Okay. However, Mr. Yuan, you should call me Mo Bai. With your age, I have a surplus of being my grandfather, and I am embarrassed to call me Mr. Mo Bai again. ”

"What's this, your literary achievements, I just call you Mr. Mo Bai nothing. ”

"This can't be said, we don't talk about literature now, we only talk about farming, in terms of farming, I am not a gentleman, I am a student, you are a gentleman. ”

"Sure enough, you are a great writer, reasonable and reasonable, so since this is the case, I will call you Mo Bai. ”

The two of them walked as they spoke, and after a while they came to a farmland.

At this time, it is the time for planting, and there are already scientific researchers planting seedlings in the field.

Of course, there are also some seedlings that are still green and growing in the paddy fields, and when the breeze blows, they are not refreshing.

"Whew, the air here is so nice. ”

Taking a deep breath, Mo Bai said with emotion.

"No, I'm in my 80s and I'm still in good health because I stay in the fields all year round. The air is fresh and there is hardly any pollution all year round. If I had to run to the big city every day, I would have to be in my 70s. ”

"You can't say that, the country is still waiting for you to contribute. ”

"Alas, a handful of old bones, even if you have a heart, you are powerless. As you know, although we have been researching hybrid rice, including the whole world, there has been basically no breakthrough in technology in recent years. Before that, I was also thinking about whether I could find a way to reduce the technical complexity of hybrid rice. It's just that when you think about it, you may have your head reined. Until you said it on Weibo...... I'm not sure if this approach is feasible, but it's a rare idea. But let's not talk about that, I'd love to know, how did you come up with this approach?"

After speaking, Yuan Lao grabbed a handful of seedlings: "Let's go, together." ”

"Together. ”

Without saying a word, he rolled up his trouser legs, and Mo Bai went barefoot on the farmland.

"Okay, wait for me. ”

Yuan Lao also smiled and stepped forward.

"Elder Yuan, as you said just now, it is precisely because you are in it that you may not have considered it for a while. And I'm not a scientific researcher in the first place, standing on the outside, maybe I can see it more clearly. At present, our and the world's hybrid rice technology all comes from the theory of the three-line method. Although the theory of the three-system law is very rigorous, it has to be said that he has flaws. Taking the three types of rice as an example, the [restorer line] only accounts for 10% of the normal rice, and the maintenance line accounts for only 5%, of course, this is nothing, and the least common male sterile line is probably less than 0.1%...... Originally, this technology is extremely complicated, and the proportion of the three types of rice is too small. This not only increases the technical complexity of our hybrid rice, but also increases the difficulty of developing other varieties. ”

The digestion of theoretical knowledge last night was not done in vain, and while planting seedlings, he said to Yuan Lao.

"Yes, because male sterility lines are so hard to find. Basically, in the early 80's, the male sterile lines we were looking for were accidentally obtained from wild rice. However, even so, after decades of hard work, we still find very few good male sterile line models.

Yuan Lao also sighed.

"However, although this is said, the three-line hybrid rice theory is still the most rigorous theory, and if, as you said, there is no maintenance line, then our theory will be meaningless, and it will be impossible to breed hybrid rice. ”

At this time, the two finally got to the point.

"Yuan Lao, three-line hybrid rice is only suitable for three-line hybrid rice, and the maintenance line is only for pollinating the sterile line, so what he grows is still an sterile line. If the sterile line grows on its own, what do you do to maintain the line?"

"No way. ”

Yuan Lao shook his head: "Since it is called the sterile line, it first proves that he is already sterile, and it is impossible for him to reproduce himself if he is infertile, how can he grow on his own?"

"There are no absolutes, Yuan Lao, for example, some vegetables that are ripe in summer or autumn, but after the transformation of the greenhouse, we can also eat such dishes in winter and spring. ”

"I understand that greenhouses affect the temperature of crops, so they change their growth habits......"

Yuan Lao was about to continue.

Suddenly, Yuan Lao was stunned, looked at Mo Bai and said, "Mo Bai, you mean temperature?"

"Yes. ”

Mo Bai nodded: "To be precise, it's not just the temperature, but also the sunshine." ”
