Chapter 190: The Bio-Industrial Revolution
"Lao Liu, I think there is something I need to say hello to. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info "Li Menghua found Liu Huaiyi.
"You say!" Liu Huaiyi pointed to the sofa next to him, letting Li Menghua feel free by himself, the two met at the end of the day, from the time of Qingping, and there was a mutual friendship, so they didn't care much about informal occasions.
"I've cracked the breeding techniques of Sula and Cleansing Fungi."
"Oh! Congratulations on your great strength, I guess you are not far from the Nobel Prize, right? ”
"Soon, I'm preparing to throw out a gene editing technology, which is inspired by these special creatures in our bureau to learn from the third generation of gene editing technology, which I call the fourth generation of gene editing technology, and it is indeed possible to win the Nobel Prize."
"I rub!! Are you serious? Liu Huaiyi jumped up in shock.
"Really! No exaggeration! Li Menghua had a smug smile on his face, he knew very well his technical level, he had gained a lot during his time in the Secret Service, and now he was absolutely the best in the field of genes and cell development - except, of course, 0810!
"I ...... I...... I ......" Liu Huaiyi was so happy and shocked that he didn't know what to say, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he quickly thought about the meaning and value of this matter, and whether there was anything to be used for.
"With the use of the fourth generation of gene editing technology, it will be possible for mankind to officially open the era of biological civilization, and biotechnology will enter a state of explosive development similar to the industrial revolution, and its value is roughly equivalent to the steam engine technology of the first industrial revolution."
“...... Such a ......" Liu Huaiyi was shocked again, this evaluation is not at the technical level, this is already an important event in the transformation of human civilization, the transformation of productive forces, and the transformation of the economy, which can already rise to the level of national strategy and five-year strategic planning.
Liu Huaiyi suddenly calmed down, sat down quietly, and entered the long exam.
Li Menghua didn't bother him, made himself a cup of tea, tasted the fragrance of tea with the steam, and quietly waited for Liu Huaiyi's thinking results.
Li Menghua did not boast and exaggerate for himself, the progress of human beings in biotechnology is gradual, and at the beginning it was just species breeding and breeding, and plant hybrid cultivation, all of which remained in the macro world.
It was not until the development of embryo technology, fertilized egg technology, and cloning technology that it entered the onlooker world and entered the level of technology at the cellular level.
Although it has entered the cellular level, there are too many hidden dangers in cloning technology, and it has not been able to form a stable and accurate mass production mode. This is because of the complexity of biology itself, which leads to the fact that biotechnology must cross a relatively high theoretical and engineering threshold if it wants to develop.
Therefore, even if the cell-level technology is still not an entry, it is still just a gray box operation, and there are many uncertainties.
Only when gene analysis is completed and gene editing technology is accurate can biotechnology be truly introduced, and the current level of human technology is just hovering at the door.
Gene elucidation is now in full swing, and base pairs have been able to be identified with sufficient accuracy, but the genetic composition has yet to be identified, and this work is only half done.
With identification, precise gene editing technology happens to be an operational and engineering technology, and with it, gene analysis can be useful.
Gene analysis and editing, these two aspects just form the entry card to biotechnology. As long as these two points are solved, biotechnology will officially enter the fast lane, entering a state similar to the first industrial revolution with the possession of the steam engine.
Prior to this, a total of 9 Nobel Prizes were born in the field of cell development and genetic engineering, one of which belongs to genetic modification technology and the other belongs to gene sequencing and editing technology.
According to the current level of international gene technology development, if Li Menghua comes up with the fourth generation of precision gene editing technology, it is estimated that a Nobel Prize will not run.
This possibility is very high, so Li Menghua is not exaggerating at all.
"Mr. Li, when are you going to disclose your technology?"
"So let's discuss with you, after all, we are a secret-related department, and the release of this key technology must definitely say hello to you and report to the above."
“...... This one...... You'll have to help me figure it out how to report it. ”
The two discussed for a long time, and finally decided on a theme idea - on the feasibility of promoting the industrial revolution in biotechnology!
After this academic and literary work report was submitted to the cabinet, the cabinet was silent for a long time, until the two of them thought that they had fallen into the sea, and they suddenly received a notice to attend an academic symposium.
Outside the door of the seminar, the two of them were very surprised to see Shousuke's office director.
"Director Wu! How did you get here? Liu Huaiyi hurriedly walked a few steps and enthusiastically held the other party's outstretched hand with both hands.
"I'm here for this meeting, too."
"Oh?" Director Wu's answer made Liu Huaiyi a little surprised.
"You guys! Your report gave the cabinet a headache, believe it, it's a bit sensational, don't believe it, after all, it's the opinion of experts. Later, the think tank also gave its opinion, but it was still not strong enough, so this academic symposium was organized, and I also came to listen and learn. ”
Director Wu paused, and suddenly said something again. "If you can convince the experts, then we will most likely have to revise the next five-year plan."
This is a gesture of goodwill!
Liu Huaiyi immediately understood, and immediately changed from the affectionate and respectful attitude of his superiors and subordinates to a slightly casual attitude with some personal relationships, and actively moved closer to the organization!
When the three of them entered the conference room, Li Menghua was surprised to find that all the people present were academicians, academicians almost sat in a room, not only academicians in the field of gene biology, but also experts in industry, agriculture, economics, finance and other fields.
It is no exaggeration to say that if this house is hit by a bomb, then half of the empire's scientific and technological world will have to collapse.
For Li Menghua, this meeting was like revisiting a graduation defense, saying that it was a meeting, but in fact, Li Menghua was defending their work report.
Li Menghua blocked left and right, dealing with the academicians' tricky and profound problems, and there was a sense of joy of Huashan arguing on swords and fighting martial arts masters.
The meeting of the society was held for three days, during which new people continued to join, and old people kept leaving, but Li Menghua has always been in the position of answering questions.
By the time the meeting was over, Director Wu's enthusiasm was almost flowing down his face.
"Good! Mr. Li is worthy of being a top expert in genetics, and his value to the empire is huge, and he can be called a national treasure-level expert! ”
