Chapter 100: Rumors Spread
At the South China Sea planting base, Xia Guobin stayed until late before leaving. Before leaving, he promised Li Lei again that the city would fully support his cultivation of improved seeds, and that all plans could start at any time when Li Lei returned to Lingnan City.www.biquge.info
The next day, experts from the Ministry of Agriculture arrived.
Their purpose is both similar to Xia Guobin's, but it is very different, and compared to Xia Guobin's temporarily unfulfilled promise, the experts of the Ministry of Agriculture are much more direct.
Weigh the harvested corn, analyze and test the corn components, and ask Li Lei about the process of cultivating improved seeds.
At the end of the question, Li Lei even had a feeling of being out of words.
If he asks for another day or two, he will probably collapse directly, and even if he doesn't, he will probably reveal flaws. However, with the help of Zhou Huaiyu, everything was finally completely resolved.
Five days later, experts from the Ministry of Agriculture returned to the capital.
Until this time, Li Lei relaxed again, just waiting for the new corn to grow stamens and artificial pollination of different corn varieties, he set off to return.
Time passed, and when there was still a week left before the Spring Festival, Li Lei specially invited everyone to have a meal, and on the afternoon after the meal, he met with Ivy and Elle, and said goodbye and left.
Lingnan International Airport.
At the exit of the airport passage, long guns are sprinting, and reporters are gathered. If the reporter is nothing, the three people standing in front of the reporter are the core figures of this pick-up.
When the passengers passing by saw this scene, they all showed curious looks.
"With so many reporters, are there celebrities coming?"
"How do you know it's a star? I met the man in the middle, who was the deputy mayor in charge of science, education, culture, health, and agriculture, and he personally came to pick up the plane, and the person who came must have been a high-level leader. ”
"No way. If it was a high-level leader, the airport would have been under martial law for a long time, and we could still enter and exit at will. Hehe, but I'm very interested in that person, so I'm not in a hurry anyway, wait and see. ”
“……”
Chinese people have always liked to join in the fun, especially in the battle at this time, there are dozens of reporters of all kinds and more than 10 kinds of station standards, which obviously attach great importance to the visitors.
This kind of situation that can attract the attention of reporters is not a star, but must also be a well-known figure in society.
Half an hour later, with the sound of the radio, people came out one after another.
For a while, all the passengers who picked up the airport, as well as the passers-by who watched the excitement, looked at the exit and waited patiently for the big man in their hearts.
"That's the star Zhao Li?"
"Damn, she came to Lingnan City, and we didn't get any news."
"Huh? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with her! ”
Not to mention, there is really a celebrity among the passengers, Zhao Li, a second-tier star in China. And she came here this time as if it was for personal matters, neither notified the media, nor did she have an assistant.
Zhao Li was taken aback by the luxurious lineup of reporters at the exit of the airport, she hurriedly dragged her assistant and turned back. But she seemed to be thinking too much, and the reporters still maintained a waiting posture, completely ignoring her coming and going.
"Here we are."
At this moment, the deputy mayor said excitedly and strode forward.
Behind him, city government staff and many reporters heard the news.
"Aiwei, I told you before I got on the plane that Lingnan City is very cold now, so you just don't listen to it, regret it?"
Behind the passengers, Li Lei glanced at Ivy and said helplessly.
"Hmph, it's all Ellie's fault." Ai Wei was wearing Li Lei's down jacket, the corners of her mouth were flattened, and she said angrily.
Elle smiled and said, "How can you blame me? Who told you not to prepare, and you are fatter than me, you can't wear my clothes, what can I do. ”
Li Lei couldn't laugh or cry, he rubbed his hands, and hurriedly said: "The airport is still warm, let's take a taxi back directly, otherwise it will definitely freeze." ”
"Uh-huh."
The two women nodded at the same time.
"Li Lei, you're finally back."
Li Zhengnan rushed to Li Lei and said excitedly while stretching out his hand.
Li Lei was taken aback; "May I ask who you are?"
"Hehe, my surname is also Li, Li Zhengnan. Five hundred years ago, we might have been one family. Li Zhengnan shook hands with Li Lei and introduced himself.
"Huh? Hello Mr. Lee. Li Lei looked polite.
The corners of Li Zhengnan's mouth twitched when he heard this, and the secretary behind him observed his words and hurriedly interjected: "Li Lei, Mayor Li is responsible for the science, education, culture, health and agricultural work of our city. ”
Li Zhengnan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "In front of the youngest and most outstanding agricultural experts in my country, there is no mayor or mayor, and it cannot be compared at all. Li Lei, your achievements not only caused a sensation in Lingnan, but also gave high praise to the province and the country. There are so many mayors in the country, but there are only a handful of talented agricultural experts like you. ”
After these days of testing, Li Lei has long been immune to all kinds of praise, and he said with a smile: "I still have a lot of work to do." ”
"Let's go, let's go to the city government first, Secretary Xu and Mayor Xia are waiting for you."
Hearing this, and seeing Li Zhengnan pulling Li Lei to leave, a reporter couldn't help asking: "Mayor Li, can we interview Li Lei first?" ”
"You ask, but ten minutes at most."
Li Zhengnan nodded, let go of Li Lei and stepped aside.
"Hello Li Lei, I'm Zhang Feng from the Provincial Satellite TV Station. According to the latest news, the high-yield and improved varieties you have cultivated have passed the national audit, and the Ministry of Agriculture has even issued a special guidance document, hoping that corn planting areas across the country will make every effort to promote the 'Miracle No. 1' high-yield corn. ”
"It is the first time in the history of the promotion of a certain good breed that a document has been issued for a certain kind of good breed, so that there are many voices on the Internet. They think that you have a deep background, which is why the Ministry of Agriculture interferes in the market, may I ask, is the rumor true? ”
After Zhang Feng asked, Li Lei was stunned: "Ministry of Agriculture document, when is it?" How did I not know? ”
"You don't know?"
Zhang Feng said in surprise: "Now that it has been spread all over the Internet, and some people have even posted the original text of the document, have you not been online for a long time?" ”
"I'm sorry, I'm staying at the Nanhai planting base during this time, and I'm busy cultivating Miracle No. 2 corn seeds, so I haven't been on the Internet much, and I haven't gotten any news."
Li Lei smiled, and then became serious: "Since you asked this question, I don't think it's too late to know now." I can tell you unequivocally that my family has lived in Dawang Village for generations, and the so-called background is nonsense. As for the approach of the Ministry of Agriculture, I raise my hands in agreement. The high-yield corn with a yield of 1,800 catties per mu is only good for anyone as long as it is promoted in time, and there is no harm. ”
"Li Lei, I am a reporter from the Provincial Agricultural Channel. You fully agree with the national promotion, but as the inventor of a high-yielding and improved seed, anyone who wants to produce this kind of seed must ask for your consent, and even need to pay royalties to you, so that you will be the one who benefits the most. How do you feel about this? ”
"Thoughts?"
Li Lei took a deep breath and said seriously: "Any organization or individual can buy new breeds from me. After buying, allow them to grow and cultivate freely, and I won't charge a penny more! ”
"Okay, that's all I have to say, Mayor Li, let's go!"
