Chapter 491: GMO

Ye Chen has even participated in state banquets, and he has eaten a lot of delicious food, so it stands to reason that he will not act like a foodie. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 However, this fragrance has a special charm, and Ye Chen couldn't help but sniff.

"Xiaoye, how's that? I tell you, everyone who comes to us will be like you. "The father of hybrid rice looked at Ye Chen's foodie in his eyes, squinting his eyes and looking at it vigorously, it was really enjoyable.

A world-renowned scientist like Ye Chen is really rare to perform like this, and we must seize the opportunity to appreciate it.

"The smell is so special that you can't help but want to eat it." Ye Chen commented.

The father of hybrid rice patted Ye Chen's shoulder, gave Ye Chen a thumbs up, and said, "To raise poultry and livestock, you also need good food. If the food is not good, the meat raised will not be good. ”

Ye Chen agreed with this.

The meat you buy in the market is completely different from the meat you feed with grain at home, and it is not fragrant enough.

This meat is so fragrant, which is enough to prove that the father of hybrid rice and the grain they grow are very good.

Soon, the fat chef cooked the meal, and the father of hybrid rice took Ye Chen to his seat. He sat in the middle, Yuan Cheng on his left, and Ye Chen on his right.

To Ye Chen's surprise, Chen Wang, these doctoral supervisors, took it for granted that Yuan Cheng was sitting next to the father of hybrid rice. Ye Chen understood that although Yuan Cheng was an old farmer, he was convinced by big intellectuals like Chen Wang.

It can be seen that Yuan is very powerful.

The father of hybrid rice picked up a three-catty wine jar and said with a smile: "Come, Xiaoye, taste the rice wine we brewed." ”

"Old man, I found that you are really versatile, you can farm, raise poultry and livestock, and make wine, which is really amazing." Ye Chen was very emotional.

If Ye Chen hadn't known that this was the father of hybrid rice, he would have thought that he was a farmer.

He did all the things of the farmhouse, and he didn't fall behind, which was unbelievable.

"When food is grown, in addition to scientific research, there will be a lot left, and you can't eat it all by eating, so you have to find a way to use it. Raising poultry and livestock is only one way, and making wine is another. Xiaoye, you also know that food has a lot to do with future generations, and there must be no problems. We use our own experiments, and of course we have to test all kinds of uses. "The father of hybrid rice said very seriously.

Ye Chen recognized this statement.

The relationship between food and future generations is too great, and if something goes wrong, it will be infinitely harmful, and we cannot but carry out rigorous experiments. Since we want to experiment, we must experiment with all kinds of uses of food.

"Old man, you are thoughtful." Ye Chen was very impressed.

After the father of hybrid rice poured wine for Ye Chenyuan and poured it for himself. Finally, hand the wine jar to Chen Wang and let them pour it themselves.

After pouring the wine, everyone raised their wine glasses, the father of hybrid rice, and said, "You have followed me for decades, and you have all become mud legs." However, unlike others, we must not only develop new varieties of rice, but also treat ourselves as experimental objects, and leave safe and reliable food for future generations. ”

Ye was in his ears, and Ye Chen felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy.

The father of hybrid rice always thinks about future generations, and for this reason, he does not hesitate to make himself an experimental object and try the grain himself.

"In the past few decades, we have achieved good results, hybrid rice has become famous all over the world, and super hybrid rice is about to succeed. However, I don't think these are the big deals, and the next thing we need to do is conquer the real super rice and explore a higher level of life. "The eyes of the father of hybrid rice are hot.

Exploring the higher levels of life, how great it is, how important it is.

If you can really succeed, it means that a new door will appear, and a new world will be discovered.

In a word, it was revolutionary.

Chen Wang and the others have long known the idea of the father of hybrid rice, and they also recognized it, and they were all very excited when they heard this.

"There is still a long way to go to achieve our goals, and it is difficult to accomplish them with our strength alone. So, I invited Xiaoye to join. Today, we can wash the dust for Xiaoye, and everyone toasts Xiaoye. The father of hybrid rice stood up.

Ye Chen and everyone stood up together.

"When I was very young, I heard the story of the old man, I heard the story of your excellent team, and it can be said that I grew up listening to your story. I am honored to be part of such a wonderful team. I will definitely work hard to overcome this global problem. Ye Chen was also excited and said loudly.

"!" Ye Chen's words were very sincere, there was no lie, which made everyone very happy, and their favorability towards Ye Chen rose, and they raised their glasses to Ye Chen and said in unison.

"!" Ye Chen drank it dry in one gulp.

In the mouth, the rice wine is very mellow and long, with an endless aftertaste, and the bottom of the tongue is full of relish.

"Good wine!" Although Ye Chen is not a good drinker, he has also drunk a lot of good wine, and it is the first time he has drunk such a mellow wine, and he praised it loudly.

The crowd laughed and drank.

The father of hybrid rice sandwiched a piece of chicken for Ye Chen, and said with a smile: "Xiaoye, taste it." ”

"Thank you, old man." Ye Chen picked up the chicken and put it in his mouth, and a feeling of freshness instantly filled the tip of his tongue.

Ye Chen ate the chicken, his face was full of enjoyment, and commented: "Fresh and tender!" To make such delicious food, you need not only the best ingredients, but also excellent cooking skills. ”

The father of hybrid rice gave Ye Chen a thumbs up and exclaimed: "He is worthy of being a world-renowned scientist, and this tongue is also quite powerful." Xiao Ye, let me tell you, Lao Kang was originally a reporter and was quite famous in the industry. Once, he came to us for an interview, and after eating our food, he decided to change careers and join our team as a chef. ”

This is a bit of a fantasy, Ye Chen doesn't believe it.

The fat chef smiled and said, "Scientist Ye, you think it's incredible, don't you?" However, this is true. As for me, it's delicious, and when it's delicious, I must eat it. I once did one thing, I flew to eat ramen......"

Ye Chen rolled his eyes, he made a plane just to eat a bowl of ramen, how delicious is this?

Airfares are much more expensive than ramen, so what kind of foodie does it take to do such a thing?

"When I came to the old man, I knew that I belonged here all my life." Master Kong said again.

In order to eat, the reporter is not appropriate, to be a chef, what kind of brain does this take?

However, the more Ye Chen ate, the more he recognized Master Kong's choice, the food here was really delicious and delicious.

For this meal, Ye Chen ate a lot of dishes, not to mention, but also ate four bowls of rice.

It wasn't until he couldn't eat anymore that Ye Chen reluctantly put down the dishes and chopsticks, touched his stomach, and felt that his stomach had never been so round.

After eating a good meal, everyone sat in the courtyard, Chen Wang and they made tea, and gave the father of hybrid rice, Ye Chen and Yuan Cheng to put them on the small table next to them, and everyone began to chat.

"Xiaoye, what do you think about genetically modified organisms?" The father of hybrid rice asked as he drank tea.

Ye Chen knew that the old man was asking for his opinion.

Ye Chen came this time to conquer the super rice, and the old man would definitely attach great importance to Ye Chen's opinion.

Not only did the old man attach importance to Ye Chen's opinion, but Chen Wang also attached great importance to Ye Chen's opinion. How amazing Ye Chen is, they have heard a lot, and now they can listen to Ye Chen's opinion, their ears are up.

"Old man, I have no prejudice against GMO, this is a very important technology. However, I feel that GMO is a 'hybrid'. Ye Chen thought for a while.

Hybrids?

Everyone was stunned. They definitely didn't expect that Ye Chen's evaluation of genetically modified technology would use such rough words.

GMO, a word that everyone is familiar with, can be seen in the news from time to time.

But what GMO?

Simply put, implanting another lifeform or synthetic DNA fragment into a living organism. Implanted DNA fragments are selected for specific effects.

In the final analysis, it is to bring together the excellent characteristics of different life forms to form a new life form.

For example, the genetically modified soybeans we often hear about are the results of this technology.

The word hybrid is very rough, but it really describes the characteristics of GM technology.

Genetically modified technology marks that the genes of different kinds of organisms can be recombined through gene technology, and human beings can directly modify the genetic characteristics of organisms according to their own wishes to create new types of life.

Mastering the technology of genetically modified organisms is equivalent to God creating man, and human beings already have the characteristics of God.

However, the life that is created, with the genes of different species, is really a "hybrid".

"Xiaoye, are you against GMO technology?" The father of hybrid rice asked.

"I'm not against that. Genetically modified technology, is a great technology that allows human beings to have the qualities of God and can create new life. Although this kind of creation still has great limitations, it will take a long time to work hard. Ye Chen said immediately.

Genetically modified technology, although it allows humans to do more, is still very limited. At this stage, it is to "repair" genes, find excellent gene fragments in one life organism, and transfer them to another life form that needs this gene fragment to form a new life form.

With the current stage of technology, that's all.

There is no comparison with the miraculous means by which "God created man".

"I support research into GM technology, but I am cautious about promoting it." Ye Chen said again.

Ye Chen's words were a little incomprehensible, and everyone's eyes were full of doubts.

"Why?" The father of hybrid rice asked.

This was asked on behalf of the people, whose eyes widened and their ears pricked up.

"Genetically modified technology is a great technology, although it has great limitations at this stage, and has not yet reflected its true value. With the advancement of technology, it is difficult to say in the future. Perhaps, it will have a very important value and will allow human beings to do more. If you don't do it now, it won't be useful in the future. Ye Chen explained.

The father of hybrid rice nodded and agreed with Ye Chen's statement.

"As for the promotion, I am cautious for two reasons." Ye Chen said again.

"What are the two reasons?" The father of hybrid rice asked busily.
