Naturally, the evaluation team sent by the Ministry of Agriculture went to the sea with the investors.

Because of Minister Han's attention, the evaluation team is full of academicians in the aquatic industry.

The delegation of invited investment institutions is an undercurrent, and the expert group is not harmonious.

"Old Zhou, I heard that Jiagu's marine ranch plan has your signature?" Academician Ge, dressed in casual clothes, boarded the cruise ship slowly, ignoring the luxurious decorations, and went straight to Academician Zhou.

Academician Zhou is an expert in the Institute of Oceanography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences who cooperates with Jiagu to carry out research on marine basic science, and he is also an academician, so he will naturally not be overwhelmed by Academician Ge's momentum, so he simply nodded and admitted.

No one spoke, and Academician Ge smiled sarcastically: "It turns out that I heard it right, your old Zhou is really messing around with a company." ”

Academician Zhou glanced at the other party and said in a low voice: "How can it be considered nonsense to help domestic seafood farming become bigger and stronger?

Academician Ge's tone was cold: "Old Zhou, don't confuse the concept with me, do you know what I mean?"

Should we make marine aquaculture bigger and stronger?

Does this still need to be discussed?

With 70% of the world's area covered by water, but only 2% of the world's food supply currently comes from the ocean, all experts acknowledge that there is still a lot of untapped potential for marine agriculture.

For domestic agriculture, there is a more urgent need to tap the potential of marine agriculture. Taking the serious problem of water shortage as an example, agriculture is the largest user of water resources, but as a large agricultural country, 60% of China's arable land still has no water source guarantee.

In the ocean, water resources are the most scarce. For a country with a population of 1.4 billion, the great significance of vigorously developing seawater agriculture and breaking the pattern of the primary industry in which traditional agriculture takes fresh water as its lifeblood almost does not need to be emphasized.

But the problem is that some people feel that there is still a long way to go in the future to make marine agriculture bigger and stronger.

And now it is said: the road ahead is very long, but the time has come to take a big step.

This kind of conceptual conflict is the main reason for the-for-tat confrontation between the two academicians.

Academician Zhou habitually defends Jiagu: "One thing you and I cannot deny is that the shallow nearshore water areas that are easy to develop and maintain in China have almost been exploited, and the utilization rate of the contour below 10 meters is less than 10%, and at the same time, the market demand for seafood that is regarded as a high-quality ingredient will not stop growing." ”

"The combination of overexploitation and high-density farming in nearshore waters has put enormous pressure on the ecology. But even with the costs of mariculture, it is impossible to give up, as a huge shortfall in production would lead to a spike in world seafood prices, and the expansion of wild catch production would further exacerbate the depletion of fishery resources, which could be a real ecological disaster. ”

"Reducing unscientific breeding methods, going out of offshore aquaculture, and adhering to the development concept of 'first field and then pasture' is the best way for the sustainable development of marine aquaculture in China. Therefore, I agree with Jiagu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry to increase investment in the management, technology and supervision of marine aquaculture. ”

Academician Ge laughed twice and said, "Do you think Jiagu can lead the 'Blue Revolution'?"

"There is no doubt about it. ”

"Oh, what a good way to do it. "Academician Ge doesn't particularly believe it.

Academician Zhou's expression was indifferent, and he said: "No matter how much I say now, you may not be convinced, some things have to be verified in person to be convincing." However, regardless of all prejudices, Jiagu is the leading institution in the research and industrialization of marine agriculture in China, and I think no one can deny this. Therefore, it is not too much to say that it is Jiagu who is most likely to drive the 'blue revolution' in China. ”

Academician Ge has heard too many domestic leading words, and he wants to laugh a little, but he can't.

Jiagu Laboratory is Jiagu's, and Jiagu Laboratory is a leading biological research laboratory in China, which alone makes Jiagu's seawater agricultural industry development potential great. In fact, not to mention the leading position in China, it is a world-class achievement, and others have made it. No matter how obsessed Academician Ge is in marine research, he has heard of the reputation of "Jiadou 13".

No matter how much you talk about it, people's ambitions don't jump out of thin air.

Academician Ge hesitated for a moment and said, "If you want to say that Jiagu is turning the world upside down on land, I won't have an opinion, but if you want to say that he can 'advance by sea and land', I can only say that he is too ambitious......"

"The ambition of the people of Jiagu has never been small. Academician Zhou smiled and beat the side drum and said: "Moreover, the research funds invested in the early stage are not a small amount. You can doubt my vision, but you can't doubt the determination of the people of Jiagu to change agriculture. ”

Academician Ge snorted twice, not knowing what emotion was in his heart.

Although the state is paying more and more attention to agricultural scientific research, the scope of China's agriculture is too large, and the resources that can be left for marine agriculture are very small, let alone the scientific research funds that can be left for marine agriculture.

Of course, for an academician, the lower limit is very high, at least the basic funding is very guaranteed.

It's just that the foundation has long been not the goal pursued by Academician Ge.

The abundant funding of Jiagu Laboratory is well known in the scientific research community, and as Jiagu's business territory grows larger, Jiagu's research funds begin to overflow, and related research units and industries have begun to benefit.

For example, because of the scientific research cooperation with Jiagu, the funds handled in the past two or three years have been unprecedentedly sufficient, because the Jiagu laboratory has filled a lot of money for Academician Zhou's research projects.

For researchers, the most important thing is funding.

Thinking of this, Academician Ge was also a little excited.

As Lao Zhou said, no matter how much he says, it is better to see with his own eyes what Jiagu spends his funds on and what kind of achievements he has, and dare to let them have such confidence.

Build a "ranch" in the sea area!

As long as Academician Ge thought of this plan, he felt that the green tendons on his forehead were jumping.

It is true that he knows that Jiagu is not a "lion's mouth", which is also a routine that many scientific researchers are familiar with asking for funding - first start a high-profile idea, then bargain, and after several cuts of meat is the real goal.

The problem is that the "tone" shouted by Jiagu is too high, even if it is cut again and again, it is a rather terrifying scale.

If it weren't for the fact that the implementation of this plan had to be investigated by them first, he would have opposed it with great fanfare.

"Then let's wait and see. Academician Ge smiled reluctantly.

"It's not about waiting for the outcome. Academician Zhou stood up straight and said: "Haven't we waited long enough for the 'evolution' of marine agriculture in China? Will we continue to wait? The development of the industry is beneficial to all of us; if we don't seize this opportunity, can we jump on the face?"

"Lao Zhou, let's not talk about such a hypocrisy first. Academician Ge waved his hand.

"Where is this false?" Academician Zhou pointed to the representatives of the investment institutions in the cruise ship, and said calmly: "This is an opportunity, an opportunity to promote social capital to increase investment in the sustainable production model of marine agriculture, you know how rare such an opportunity is." ”

Hearing this, if Academician Ge didn't know that an academician who had reached the pinnacle of his life would not accompany a certain large company to play tricks, he blurted out a sentence: Jiagu really doesn't want to cheat money?
