Chapter 0080 Announcing Seawater Rice Improvement Technology

Zeng Lao stood on the side of the stage with several researchers, and the reporters immediately began to start their opening remarks in front of the camera.

"Dear audience friends, I am Wang Bin, a reporter from the main station. At this time, I was at the scene of the new generation of seawater rice technology conference. The press conference is about to start, and I'm sure you're in the same mood as me in front of the TV at this time, very excited.

As we all know, Zeng Lao, as the pioneer of hybrid rice technology, has not only benefited the Chinese people, but also has a good reputation in the global agricultural technology community. I believe that the seawater rice technology that Zeng Lao will release today will once again shock the world.

Audience friends, let us witness another epoch-making hybrid rice variety of Zeng Lao! ”

After speaking, the reporter got out of the camera and left the camera to Zeng Lao, who was already standing on the stage. Behind him, several assistants brought up several bundles of seawater rice plants and placed them beside Zeng Lao.

Zeng Lao stood with a smile on his face, ready to start speaking. At this time, the entire conference hall was silent, only the continuous sound of the shutter "clicked".

"Friends from journalists, farmers from all over the country, and friends from all over the world, I am Zeng Yinghua. Today, I'm announcing a brand new hybrid rice product from our team, Seawater Rice No. 1.

Seawater Rice No. 1 is a hybrid rice with salinity tolerance developed by our team after five years of technical research. Its alkali resistance reaches 9.0, and it can be planted in some saline-alkali areas in China to realize the effective use of abandoned saline-alkali land. ”

The audience burst into warm applause from reporters.

Reporters know that the technology of making saline-alkali land, which is not suitable for crops to grow and can only be abandoned, can be reused and can grow rice, is definitely a great innovation for the benefit of farmers.

Huaxia is different from foreign countries, there are few foreigners and more land, and if a piece of land is not good, it is a big deal to change a piece of land to cultivate.

But not in China, there are few people in China, and land has always been the ultimate means of production for peasants, and they all regard land as more important than life. If there really is a piece of land that cannot be cultivated, it means that people will have to lack food and clothing for several lifetimes.

Therefore, in China, as long as it is a place where a grain can be grown, it must not be allowed to grow a single weed.

Such places include, but are not limited to: balconies, flower pots, roadsides... and anywhere imaginable.

The Chinese people's cherishing of the land is something that no foreigner can deeply understand.

Therefore, the technology of planting rice in saline-alkali land may seem very indifferent to foreigners, but in the eyes of Chinese people, especially Chinese farmers, they will definitely be grateful to Zeng Lao again.

Just when the reporters applauded warmly, Zeng Lao changed his words and said: "However, the first generation of seawater rice researched by our team is predicted to have a yield of only 600 catties per mu, and the taste is very poor, which is not suitable for human consumption." ”

A reporter whispered in the back: "600 pounds? This is a very low yield compared to ordinary rice. ”

"If the taste is not good, I'm afraid it will be even less valuable."

The reporter of the main station reacted the fastest, and saw a faint loss on Zeng Lao's face, and hurriedly raised his hand to ask a question.

"Can this kind of rice be used to feed livestock, after all, the nutritional value of rice is definitely much higher than wheat bran and corn?"

The reporter wanted to play a round for Zeng Lao, after all, this was a press conference broadcast live around the world.

Zeng Lao shook his head and said, "The first generation of seawater rice has a bitter and rough taste, which is worse than wheat bran and corn, and I am afraid that even livestock may not like it." ”

As soon as he said this, the reporters were shocked.

If you don't even want to eat rice, what is the use of this technology?

Why did Zeng Lao use a press conference to let the world know about his failed technology?

Some reporters want to turn off their cameras.

"Old man Zeng is confused! You can wait for the technology to mature before releasing it! A reporter sighed.

"yes, this is a global live broadcast, isn't this a joke for foreigners?"

"Joke what? Foreigners probably haven't even thought that rice can be grown in saline-alkali land, so what qualifications do they have to joke? ”

"Yes. But what does Zeng Lao mean by this? Why the rush to announce this technology? ”

At this time, a reporter from the main station, who had not spoken, turned his head and said in a low voice: "Didn't you see the title of this press conference?" ”

"What's the title?"

"The release of the results of the new generation of seawater rice and the release of improved seawater rice technology!"

"Oh!" Someone finally came to his senses.

"Zeng is always paving the way for the 'improved seawater rice technology' in the future!"

"Say no more! Listen to Elder Zeng! ”

The venue was quiet again, and Zeng Lao put two bundles of rice in front of the stage, and then said: "On the left is our first generation of seawater rice, and on the right is the improved version of the first generation of seawater rice. Let's take a look at the difference? ”

"The ears on the left have small grains, but the ears on the right are big!" A reporter was the first to answer.

Zeng Lao smiled: "That's right! On the left, this is our first generation of seawater rice, with a yield of 600 catties per mu, and the one on the right is an improved type, with a yield of 750 catties per mu, and the most important thing is that its taste has been greatly improved, and it has approached the taste of ordinary rice! ”

"I see!" The reporters who came to their senses applauded again.

Although the yield of 750 catties per mu is not a high yield, for the saline-alkali land that is too barren to grow crops, as long as the taste meets the edible requirements, under this yield, farmers will have to earn.

"Congratulations to Zeng Lao, this will be an epoch-making hybrid rice technology!"

"Let's thank the farmers for being old!"

"Thank you, Elder Zeng!"

There were bursts of shouts from the audience.

Zeng Lao smiled and pressed his hand, and said loudly: "Do you know what technology is used in this improved seawater rice? ”

The reporters who were excited were stunned by his question.

"Isn't it hybrid rice technology?" Someone asked in a loud voice.

Zeng Lao waved his hand and said: "It's a plant mineral operator!" ”

The reporter who reacted quickly immediately asked: "Elder Zeng, are you talking about the plant mineral operator discovered by Chen Cheng of Hanxi Provincial Agricultural University?!" ”

"Yes." Zeng Lao smiled.

The audience erupted in exclamation again.

Some reporters have already begun to speak to the camera.

It's a big deal!

Who first discovered the much-debated plant mineral operation hormone on the Internet, whether Chen Cheng plagiarized a foreigner's paper, and then extended to the brain of the human race, the IQ level was surprised, and so on.

This is no longer just a hybrid rice press conference, but big news related to current events!

Naturally, the reporters were keenly aware of this problem, and their excitement was much higher than just now.

"Elder Zeng, are you saying that Chen Cheng participated in your team's research on seawater rice improvement technology, and used plant mineral operans to improve the yield and taste of rice?"

"Yes. I invited Chen Cheng to participate in our research 10 days ago, and it is the plant mineral operation hormone technology used in seawater rice improvement! ”

The reporters in the audience did not have time to be stunned, but released the explosive news as quickly as possible.
