(First of all, thank you for rewarding friends and book friends today: shark01, Ren Yijie, pie hemp, old cat doesn't eat small fish, Jiangnan 30 thank you for your support!) )

"Liar!" The word flashed through Liu Yi's mind. Without a trace, he looked at the old man Su again with his eyes, only to see that the old man Su's face was slightly red, probably due to some excitement about his past history.

The others were still the same, with no unnatural expressions or any pretentiousness. Seeing that Old Man Su was still a little unsatisfied, it really didn't look like a liar, Liu Yi removed the word "liar" from his mind again.

"It turns out that you still have such a tortuous experience, and there should be no lack of excitement in your future life, continue to continue!" Liu Yi now told him to continue as he wished.

"Of course, we are the first batch of college students to reply after the college entrance examination, not to mention this name, but everyone is real, unlike the current college students who are all over the street." After speaking, my heart seemed to be very touched.

"I originally worked in a factory, I was supposed to learn some mechanical knowledge, but I was a little tired of that industry after a few years of work, I grew up in the countryside when I was a child, and I was very curious about what they grew for, so I chose a relatively unpopular subject at that time, agronomy."

"Then you work exclusively with plants, why didn't you engage in research, but instead became a teacher?" Liu Yi is really interested in this old man.

"Teachers can't do research, superficial!" Liu Yi was a little annoyed and angry by his sudden scolding of "superficial", but the old man Su ignored Liu Yi and was on the verge of breaking out.

Continued: "At that time, all personnel were nervous, all the people with a little ability were wearing multiple hats, it was not the same as studying an unpopular subject like me, and you didn't want to think about the urgent need for talents everywhere in the country, and there was always a time when people who learned unpopular people could be used, otherwise why open that subject? ”

"yes, then you were transferred to be a teacher later!" Liu Yi finally calmed down, and now he thought that this old man Su was assigned to be a teacher at that time, and he definitely looked like this.

"I don't know how to pretend to understand." Liu Yi was reprimanded mercilessly by Old Man Su again.

"You, you ......" I don't know what to say.

"What are you, being a teacher is our side business, we are still engaged in scientific research, do you know Yuan Longping?"

"I don't know how to say this, we all over the country have to thank him, if he hadn't cultivated hybrid rice, I'm afraid Huaxia is still starving." Liu Yi is certainly familiar with this "father of hybrid rice" who cultivated hybrid rice.

"Do you know the Department of Agronomy of Xianghui College in the mountain city of Ludao, where Yuan Longping studied, and later came to teach at Hunan Anjiang Agricultural School, and engaged in agricultural research while teaching for fifteen years." Old man Su told Liu Yi about things he didn't know about before at all.

However, Liu Yi was not caught by his words, and was still thinking in his heart, "This old man is inevitably a little self-proclaiming, how can he pull Yuan Longping out, he really dares to sprinkle any halo on himself, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to say his way and humiliate himself." ”

So Liu Yi thought about watching the joke later, and did not interrupt Old Man Su's words, and urged him to continue to speak in deep thought.

"What's the hurry, it's been a long time ago, I'll think about it slowly, straighten it out." I don't care that Liu Yi looked a little frowning, as if he remembered something that started his memories.

"Yuan Longping was indeed the undisputed figure of that era, bringing good news to tens of millions of people in China, and when we went to university to study, he was already a very famous figure, especially as a student of natural sciences, and we paid more attention to the achievements made in agriculture. So he is also the object of admiration and the target of our group of professional students. ”

"At that time, I was also young and frivolous, and I had a belief that I would not admit defeat. Since he has made great achievements in rice breeding, I will start with another aspect, fruit trees. ”

"Where did you make achievements in that field? But looking at you now, you must have failed! Liu Yi didn't let go of the opportunity to hit him, and was angry in his heart, "Look at you."

Old man Su didn't care about it this time, and shook his head slightly, "In the face of the huge achievements of hybrid rice, everything else has become overshadowed, just like the stars in the sky can't block the light of the moon." ”

Liu Yi was a little uneasy in his heart, could it be that this old man really made achievements in fruit trees. In the face of Mr. Yuan Longping, he seemed to be unwilling, but everything is about achievements, and hybrid rice can be praised by the Chinese people, which is well deserved.

One thing Liu Yi remembers most clearly is that in the late nineties, the American scholar Brown threw out "**", writing that in the next 30s, the Chinese population will reach 1.6 billion, who will feed China, and who will save the resulting global food shortage and turmoil crisis? At this time, Yuan Longping announced to the world: "China can completely solve its own food problem, and China can also help the people of the world to solve the problem of eating." ”

At that time, who had the courage to say this, only he Yuan Longping, the "father of hybrid rice", could be so tough with hybrid rice! Earned a lot of face for Huaxia.

"And what have you achieved with fruit trees?" Liu Yi began to change his attitude towards this old man Su, and he was also a big man in the local area, and he had to scold him well if he said the truth.

"I don't dare to say how big the results are, many of them are theoretical things, the previous country did not have the money to do these things, and then there was no interest in making this thing, I think it is about to be shelved, but fortunately, sometimes I bring some students to tell them about it, and pass on all the useful things, and how much they can understand depends on their ability."

Just now, he still looked unwilling to admit defeat, why is he a little pessimistic and disappointed in reality now? Is it that this old man Su's achievements on fruit trees have not been paid attention to by the top, and now the commercial atmosphere is strong, and there is no benefit in the short term, and no one is willing to invest!

Liu Yi thought that it was indeed somewhat reliable, and thought that in that era, special funds were only used to do the most top-notch things. Just like rockets, China is leading in some fields, but the daily mechanization and automation are far worse than other countries.

"Old man Su, tell me, is there anything like fruit improvement and research on new varieties?" Liu Yi is still looking forward to this, if this old man has scientific and technological achievements in this area, he might as well be brought to sit and study, Liu Yi has a large piece of land to try out the field and squander it for this old man Su.

"I've been doing it for decades, and it's not a waste of youth to say that there is no! Not only do I have, but if I am given some time, I can turn these theoretical things into results. ”

"Hasn't anyone approached you before to cooperate with you in research and development?" Liu Yi asked the most critical question.

"Yes, and a lot. But the merchants are a bunch of bloodsuckers. Filling their pockets with the results of our life's work, I refused without hesitation. Old man Su was still indignant when he talked about those merchants, it seems that he has been deceived by others.

"I said Old Man Su, don't be dissatisfied, aren't businessmen born to make money, what kind of businessman are you if you don't do it for money? I think people who do good are. ”

"Hmph, you baby is old-fashioned when you talk, but it makes sense. Now I also see it, as long as we continue to engage in scientific research and ensure scientific research funds, I can't control what he should earn. "Old man Su has been depressed for a year.

"Is it difficult to find such a person now, as long as you speak out, there are countless people who come to the door, and they are eager to find it!"

"Don't take things out of context, we are not good or bad, and it still depends on the character and sincerity of the other party." Old man Su had a tone of lesson.

Liu Yi talked to him for a while, and he got used to it, and he didn't care, "That should be a lot?" ”

"A lot is a lot, there is sincerity, but there are not many people who really spend so much money for advanced research and development. Those who have the strength to invest funds are not very optimistic about our project, and in their words, the benefits are not equal! ”

"No, the richer you are, the more you care about short-term profits? They still care more about long-term profits, right? ”

"If only those big bosses thought like you, they couldn't figure out when we would produce results, even if I swore that they didn't do this business, there was no way to evaluate it, and a large part of it was like this."

Liu Yi became more and more interested: "Then how much money do you have to invest in the early stage?" ”

"At least 5 million yuan to buy instruments and equipment, but also to have enough space, office area, laboratory. Therefore, in order to achieve this goal, many investors will only invest more, which is a bit daunting. ”

"That's not much, isn't it?" Liu Yi can now say that he can reach this number in one vegetable sale, so he doesn't think it's much.

Some people don't have backache when they stand and talk, and the full man doesn't know how to be poor and hungry, and Liu Yi was despised by Old Man Su for a while.

"It's true that this money is not much, but there will be regular additional investment in the future, and the salary of the researchers, although not as much as at the beginning, will also cost a lot of money."

"Then you see that it is okay to set up what you call a fruit and fruit tree laboratory here?" Liu Yi now came directly to such a sentence.

"What, you want to invest in all those theoretical things I have in my hands?" Said the old man was shocked!
