Chapter 14 Career Begins 2

After arriving at the farm, Lee first convened a meeting of the leaders of the five research groups.

Li Zaisung looked at his classmates and said directly and unceremoniously: "When we come here, we are not here for fun, first of all, let's determine our main work." ”

"First, we need to conduct research on seed gene locks, and as we all know, no one in the world has successfully studied the real seed gene locks.

What is a seed gene lock, students are not laymen, that is, hypnotic seeds, so that they can only reproduce under specific activation conditions, and seeds that are not activated are in a dormant state and will not reproduce at all. ”

After Li Zaisung finished saying the first one, the five team leaders present all smiled heartily, they are all real insiders.

The seed technology mentioned outside is actually a by-product of the research of gene locks in various countries.

It is mainly seedless plants, such as seedless watermelons and so on.

First of all, the world's most expensive and nutritious New Zealand watermelon was also successfully bred by the Japanese.

If the Jeju Seed Company cultivates a good product, it is guaranteed that the neighbors in South Korea will do shameful things.

Japan has a larger population than South Korea, and the demand for imported vegetables is greater, so their biological research institute conducts research on all the plants related to agriculture in the world, and as long as it is cracked, it ensures that the Japanese will not spend a penny on your things.

However, seedless also has a disadvantage, that is, it is very troublesome to make seeds, and it consumes a lot of manpower and material resources every year.

Lee Jae-sung spoke again: "The second task is to continuously improve the plants in the Korean environment, mainly the improvement of edible plants, as you know, our neighbor to the west, just hybridized rice to improve the seed gene, so that 1.5 billion people, oh, at that time, 800 million people without famine, our task is very heavy, students." ”

Speaking of improved seed genes, this is not unusual, not only hybrid rice, but also other alpine crops such as rice, wheat, and even apples in the alpine region, the earliest apples did not have so many species.

The most well-known are genetically modified corn and soybeans in the United States, which are recognized all over the world as genetically modified products that are not edible for humans.

Zhang Youcheng, who is also a classmate of Li Zaisheng, said: "The effect of improved seed genes is very slow, especially after a large number of tests, and it is also necessary to conduct long-term experiments on whether the product and human genes are compatible. Old classmate, this investment is not low! ”

Everyone nodded and turned to look at Lee Jae-sung.

Lee Jae-sung smiled: "What we are doing is not the method of gene-altering space rays in the United States, but the method based on the traditional method, that is, the crossbreeding of plants of various similar subjects to improve the goal of our project." As we all know, China's watermelon, 30 years at least 15 times of variety improvement, I believe that our age, we have eaten this new ruby and other watermelons before, now it is completely invisible, that is, the new improved seeds have replaced the previous watermelon seeds. China is the best country in the world at using hybrid technology, and we need to catch up with our Chinese counterparts. ”

Seeing everyone's nodding knowingly, Li Zaisung continued to speak: "These two tasks are our main tasks at present, as for the profitability of the farm, before our research has no results, it is still based on traditional animal husbandry, and the farm will leave us enough land for experimentation." ”

Li Zaisung took a sip of the mineral water on the table and twisted the lid on the water bottle: "The first experiment we are currently conducting is the seed genetics experiment, that is, the seed planting is one to two generations, and the self-kept seeds will lose their ability to reproduce, so as to ensure our interests to the greatest extent." ”

After looking at the knowing smile of the five classmates, and also a confident smile, Li Zaisung continued to speak: "Everyone knows that human beings are carbon-based life, and the vast majority of plants and animals on the earth are also carbon-based life, and the life gene map is a double helix structure, and each node is basically determined to deal with a life characteristic, then, various plants also have their own gene maps, we only need to remove or weaken one of the nodes or several nodes, only by using our gene encryption technology or gene supplement technology, In order to activate the multiplication of seeds, in the end, all the products that are planted and improved by us will lack this gene point, and at that time, we can make enough profits by only producing gene supplements. ”

Li Zaisung's words made the eyes of his five classmates light up, they are all technical maniacs, and at this time, they have just left the school, and their enthusiasm has not yet dissipated, and they are all brains on their heads, and they are screaming to start experiments immediately.

Lee Jae-sheng stopped the enthusiasm of the classmates: "Everyone moves into the dormitory first, who is a lover with the female classmate who came here, submit a report, and arrange for you to be together." Be careful, don't get married and have children, I myself am disgusted with abortions. ”

As soon as he said this, several male classmates laughed tacitly.

Knocking on the table, Li Zaisung stared majestically at the five team leaders and walked around: "In addition, the ugly words are said in the front, whoever goes against everyone's interests and betrays the achievements of the research institute, I will also make him worse than death, I believe everyone has seen that my second sister Mrs. Li Xuxian has served as the CEO of the farm, what does this mean, everyone should understand, go back and warn their team members, and hold a meeting every month to remind them of confidential matters." ”

The five team leaders were shocked, what did Li Xuxian mean, then do you need to say, the Samsung Li family has already intervened, and the intervention of the Samsung Li family can not only protect research funds, but also a high butcher's knife, if anyone does not follow the rules, then don't blame the butcher's knife for falling.

Seeing that the order was finished, Li Zaisung waved his hand to let his current five generals leave, he sat on the chair and thought about his experiment with Chinese cabbage seeds a few days ago, there is no space water, Chinese cabbage seeds will not germinate at all in the outside world, even if he uses the best nutrient solution on the market at present, the seeds cultivated by Chinese cabbage produced in the space are not moving at all.

Not only the Chinese cabbage seeds, but also the seeds of other creatures are the same, which aroused Li Jaesheng's curiosity, he mixed a bucket of ordinary tap water with a drop of space water, and then soaked the seeds, and sure enough, the seeds began to germinate.

This discovery made Lee both happy and worried, after all, it was only the effect of space water, not the real genetic code.

However, Li Zaisheng has a guess, that is, the vegetable varieties bred in space are strengthened by space at a certain gene point, so without strong space water to activate this strengthened gene point, the seeds will not encounter a suitable breeding environment, and they will not germinate and grow.

It's just like a game where you don't reach the level you need to pass, and the system will just reject your request or ignore you altogether.

What he has to do now is to find out the Chinese cabbage seeds, which are space-strengthened seed gene points, through continuous experiments, and then prepare an activation solution that can be prepared by external factors other than space.

At present, the shape, color, taste, and growth cycle of Chinese cabbage are grown through space. Li Zaisung can be sure that the gene point of Chinese cabbage is definitely not one, and it is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack to find a gene point of genetic attributes in countless gene points, which can only be eliminated by the elimination method one by one, maybe the first is the genetic point of Chinese cabbage, maybe the last one is, it all depends on the luck of the good.

However, today's seed technology in the world today can weaken the heritability of seeds, that is, the seeds currently sold on the market, at most farmers buy them back and plant them once or twice, and then plant them to not achieve the yield of the first time.

This also shows that weakening heritability is aimed at seed genes and a certain growth gene.

Thinking of this, Li Zaisung stood up, walked quickly to his office, turned on the computer, and searched the Internet for various academic papers and technology transfer information on biogenetics from world-renowned universities.

He didn't leave the office door for ten hours, and this crazy work situation startled Li Xuxian, who had been engaged in administrative work.

However, looking at the expressions of those researchers, Li Xuxian inquired, and realized that he was rare and strange, scientists are all this virtue, and they don't have time to feel it when they work!

Li Xuxian rubbed his temples with a headache, this was the first day of arriving in Jeju Island, and dozens of scientific researchers rushed into the research with research topics and experimental equipment, Li Xuxian reluctantly instructed logistics and personnel to ensure the supply of life energy and physical supervision of these scientists.

Li Xuxian has foreseen that dealing with scientists is not like dealing with businessmen, and there will be many headaches for him in the future!
