Chapter 490: A Foodie's Paradise
As a world-renowned scientist, Ye Chen is not an ordinary person, and he knows the difference between the two very well. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The experimental field is equivalent to the laboratory, and the farmland is equivalent to the production workshop. The data obtained in the laboratory may not necessarily be used in actual production, and experimental studies are required.
However, without the data from the laboratory, there can be no actual production.
"Old man, even if it's different, but the hybrid rice grows so well, it is far beyond my imagination, and I thought it was super hybrid rice." Ye Chen was still very emotional.
"Huh. There are many people who say this. "The father of hybrid rice smiled happily.
Even Ye Chen, a world-renowned scientist, was surprised, and others could imagine it.
The father of hybrid rice said as he drove the car to the experimental field. The laboratory has a wide road that is accessible to vehicles.
Stop the car, Ye Chen and the father of hybrid rice got down, and Chen Wang and they also stopped the car and got out of the car.
Ye Chen came to the side of the hybrid rice and stopped, squatted down, and watched carefully. I saw that the growth of hybrid rice was gratifying, and the rice ears were full, which made people happy when they looked at it.
"Although I am a farmer and am no stranger to crops, this is the best rice I have ever seen." Ye Chen watched the old one for a while, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"It's a must. This is the experimental field, and if it can't be so, it's over. The father of hybrid rice laughed.
There is a lot of truth to that.
The conditions of the experimental field are much better than those of the farmland, whether it is the climate, seed work, etc., they are all selected and selected. With such favorable conditions, it would be too sorry to not be able to grow such a gratifying hybrid rice.
Ye Chen stretched out his hand and stroked the ears of rice, and the feeling was very good.
"How's it going?" Ye Chen asked.
Hybrid rice, Ye Chen has eaten a lot. However, this is the hybrid rice in the experimental field, which is definitely different from what Ye Chen tasted, and Ye Chen was really a little curious about the taste.
"Huh!" A roar of laughter sounded, and Chen Wang and the others all laughed happily.
"How do I find your laughter interesting." Ye Chen was confused.
"Xiao Ye, when it comes to taste, I have to tell you a story. Not long after we successfully cultivated hybrid rice, at that time, people did not have confidence in hybrid rice and thought that it would not work, and from time to time reporters came to us for interviews. One day, a few reporters came, and I entertained them with the hybrid rice we planted. Xiaoye, do you know what happened behind the scenes? The father of hybrid rice winked at Ye Chen, quite naughty.
Any new thing, in order to be recognized by people, always needs a process. When people get used to the old things, it is really not easy for people to accept the new things. Hybrid rice, what is there for people now? Who doesn't grow hybrid rice? Who doesn't eat hybrid rice?
However, at the beginning, hybrid rice caused a lot of opposition, and many people did not understand and did not accept hybrid rice.
The father of hybrid rice is also really, and at this time, he did not forget to test Ye Chen, Ye Chen was quite speechless, and said in his heart, where do I know what happened? Suddenly, Ye Chen thought of a possibility and said, "Could it be that someone is eating it?" ”
Ha ha!
Chen Wang laughed and gave Ye Chen a thumbs up, looking like you are amazing.
The father of hybrid rice's face changed, and he looked bored, and said, "Xiaoye, can't you be so smart?" I finally wanted to have some fun, and you just told me through, it's really boring. ”
The old naughty boy's nickname was not given to him in vain, and he had to have some fun in this matter, Ye Chen was speechless.
"These reporters didn't believe that hybrid rice would be delicious at first. Later, after they had eaten some, they ate violently. Among them, a female reporter ate three bowls of rice, and reluctantly put down the bowl, saying that this was the meal she had eaten the most. The father of hybrid rice continued.
Bang Bang Bang!
Ye Chen applauded. Facts speak louder than words, and no matter how good words are, they are not as powerful as facts. This fully shows that hybrid rice is a success.
After looking at the hybrid rice for a while, the old man took Ye Chen to see the super hybrid rice.
When he came to the experimental field, Ye Chen took a look, and his eyes almost fell off.
Super hybrid rice is worthy of being super hybrid rice, and this growth is much better than that of hybrid rice. Ye Chen knew something about super hybrid rice, but what he saw in front of him was far beyond Ye Chen's imagination, and he couldn't help but be shocked.
"It's a pleasure to watch." Ye Chen's eyes were protruding, and his eyes were reluctant to move.
It's not that Ye Chen hasn't seen the world, it's really super hybrid rice that is too tempting.
"Super hybrid rice is the focus of our current research, but it has not been successful." The father of hybrid rice is a pity.
Ye Chen knew about this and had read relevant reports. The state organized the acceptance, and the final result was a little worse, not too much. The father of hybrid rice admits defeat and needs to continue to work hard.
"How sure are you?" Ye Chen asked.
"If you just look at the output, it should be ninety percent. However, I now believe that the super hybrid rice that we have come up with is not a super hybrid rice in the true sense of the word. In my opinion, the real super hybrid rice should be a qualitative transformation, which should be the food of a higher level of life. The father of hybrid rice had a solemn face.
He loves to joke, and it was the first time since Ye Chen knew him.
This was said when he first observed the ceremony, and Ye Chen knew that what he said was right.
"I invited Xiaoye to come over, which is to conquer the real super rice. If it succeeds, it will open a whole new door. "The father of hybrid rice is full of anticipation.
He believes that true super rice is the food of a higher level of life. If it really succeeds, it means that human beings have touched the threshold of a higher level of life, which is of great significance.
"I'll do my best." Ye Chen was not very sure about this.
If the system doesn't "die", maybe there will be a way to think about it.
After visiting for a while, Ye Chen followed the father of hybrid rice back to their residence. Their dwellings consisted of small bungalows, no different from those of the people in the countryside.
It's just a bit old, it should have been built many years ago.
With the improvement of the country's economic strength, it is not uncommon for ordinary people to live in small houses.
"Xiao Ye, you live here, and I live here." The father of hybrid rice pointed to a small bungalow road.
This small bungalow is the middle one, three floors, complete with water and electricity, Ye Chen is very satisfied.
"Xiao Ye, you are a world-renowned scientist, I really wronged you for letting you live in this kind of place." The cold drink of hybrid rice helped Ye Chen place his daily necessities, and he was a little embarrassed.
"Old man, what you said is not right. As for me, I came from a peasant background. When I was a child, my family's economic conditions were not good, and I didn't have such a small bungalow to live in. Ye Chen's family background was not good, so he had to give up the opportunity to study in graduate school and enter social work in advance.
The father of hybrid rice knew about this, and he appreciated Ye Chen's fact that he was not taboo.
Many people, because of their different statuses, are reluctant to mention the things that they suffered and suffered from poverty in the past, thinking that they are very faceless. A world-renowned scientist like Ye Chen doesn't have this kind of idea at all, which is really rare.
"Besides. You are a world-renowned agricultural expert, and the United Nations hired you as a consultant, and you won't go. Seniors like you live here, can I not learn from you? Ye Chen said with a smile.
The father of hybrid rice, he is a world-renowned agricultural expert, and the United Nations wants to hire but can't. He can live, why can't Ye Chen live?
As soon as he settled down, he heard the sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and Ye Chen was very surprised: "What's the matter?" ”
"Xiao Ye, we're making lunch, ready to entertain you." The father of hybrid rice explained.
"Entertain me?" Ye Chen was a little surprised.
If you want to entertain Ye Chen, you won't be so jumpy, right?
"Xiaoye, let me tell you, what we eat here, whether it is chickens, ducks, pigs, or fish, is all raised by ourselves, ensuring that it is green and natural." The father of hybrid rice and Ye Chen went out and went downstairs, talking as they walked.
"You raise it yourself?" Ye Chen felt incredible.
The father of hybrid rice is a world-renowned agricultural expert, and it is reasonable to grow his own grain and eat it himself. Chickens, ducks, fish and pigs are all raised by themselves, which is too.
"The food we grow ourselves, in addition to being used for scientific research, is eaten by ourselves. However, we have to grow so much in a year, and we can't eat it all, so we use it to raise chickens, ducks, fish and pigs, and raise them to eat ourselves. The father of hybrid rice explained.
"Old man, I didn't see that you still have such a thrifty side." Ye Chen thought that the father of hybrid rice was too frugal, otherwise, he would not have driven a classic car.
"It's not frugality, it's scientific research. The food we grow is all experimental, and if we don't dare to eat it ourselves, how can we promote it? We don't dare to eat the poultry and livestock we raise with the grain we grow, and we dare to ask others to eat them? "The father of hybrid rice has a slightly higher voice.
The tone of the father of hybrid rice was not high, but Ye Chen felt a strong aura of shock rushing towards him.
The old man's words are very simple, but the sentence "If we don't dare to eat it ourselves, how can we promote it", it is too shocking, how broad-minded is this?
What kind of scientific rigor is this?
The old man is experimenting with himself, with such a great mind, how many people can do it?
"Old man, you are amazing!" Ye Chen was sincerely amazed.
The father of hybrid rice waved his hand, disagreed, and said: "Xiaoye, hybrid rice technology is also a kind of scientific research, but it is different from other scientific research. This is a major matter that has a bearing on the lives of millions of people, and even on future generations, and we cannot be cautious. We don't dare to eat it ourselves, do we dare to let others eat it? Do you dare to let future generations eat it? ”
A series of questions showed the old man's broad mind, which moved Ye Chen very much.
The old man is right, agricultural technology research is different from other scientific research. Other scientific research is used for use, and if something goes wrong, the damage to life is not very great.
Agricultural technology research is a problem related to eating, and if there is a technical problem, the harm will be too great. Millions of people have suffered as a result. In general, it is possible that even future generations will be endangered.
This matter cannot be ignored and cannot be rigorous.
The old man's method is to eat it himself and make himself an experiment.
A fat chef took Chen Wang and they were killing chickens and ducks, and Yuan Cheng even went to catch a few fish. If Ye Chen hadn't known that Chen Wang was a postdoctoral senior intellectual, he would have thought they were farmers.
After the efforts of a group of people, it didn't take long for the dishes to be cleaned out, and the fat chef went to cook the dishes.
It didn't take long for the enticing fragrance to spread, and Ye Chen couldn't help but take a few sharp breaths.
