Chapter 570 The difficulty of what we are about to do is simply insane!

The so-called hegemony in this world always needs to control something, or control the military, and beat the whole world alone, or control finance, and the whole world asks you for loans, use your currency, or control science and technology and education, have the largest number of universities in the world, absorb talents from all over the world for research, and talents are cultivated by other countries, but the scientific research results belong to you.

A country or entity that can achieve any of the above is the hegemony class on the earth. If it has several hegemony or controls all the most important hegemony, it will become the well-deserved overlord on the earth.

Since the Sino-US hegemony war has been underway, North America has fewer and fewer cards in its hands, especially the gradual loss of technological hegemony has made the whole West feel uncomfortable. After thinking about it for a few years, they finally played the agricultural card, hoping to consolidate their hegemony in the agricultural field with the help of dumping.

China is a giant country with a population of more than 1.4 billion, and Luo Jia also hinted on different occasions that everyone would give birth to more children and prepare for the future of moving towards the sea of ​​stars and colonizing other planets.

If there are too many people, you have to eat. Eating is inseparable from agriculture. If the West can consolidate its hegemony in the agricultural field, no matter how far the Chinese go in the future, they will be covered with shackles on their necks. As long as the West pulls it gently behind the back, the Chinese will have to slow down. This is their wishful thinking.

However, they did not expect that Luo Jia also turned his attention to agriculture. In Luo Jia's mind, agriculture is the foundation of everything. It's like you lead the army out to fight. The war is in full swing and the battle is fierce. You are about to capture the enemy's base camp. But when you look back, you find that there is no food. That should be the thing that all the generals feel the most heartwarming.

In short, in October of the seventh year of its founding, Western agricultural enterprises began to launch fierce offensives against China, and the main battlefield was located in high-end agricultural technology.

Perhaps you have been confused. Why have these delicious varieties of delicious but expensive cherries, juicy and plump grapes, and huge and bright red strawberries, never seen before when you were young? But in the past decade, they have emerged one after another and are constantly innovating. There are more and more fruits and vegetables on the market, and the taste is getting better and better?

The answer is very simple, because after joining the WTO, China joined the global trade system, and overseas agricultural giants began to expand their markets in my country, so the product types became increasingly abundant.

Your grandfather may have never seen colorful peppers in his life, but you have long been accustomed to it. This is the power of agricultural technology. We can no longer simply think that agriculture is facing the loess and the sky. Modern agriculture has evolved into a typical high-tech industry with intensive technology, capital and land.

Recently, everyone seems to be complaining that fruits are getting more and more expensive, but have you ever thought about it? Are the fruits we eat now and the fruits we eat from our parents and grandparents the same thing?

Take Apple as an example. Before 2000, the most important type of apple on the market was Guoguang. I also knew it by the name. Typical domestic products once accounted for 70% of the market share. As for quality, it is hard to describe it.

The market is the touchstone of all technology. Today's young people have rarely heard of Guoguang Apple, which is enough to explain the problem. To put it nicely, the thing tastes pretty good. To put it badly, Guoguang Apple's appearance is like a colored potato. How ugly is it so ugly that it is completely unacceptable to the beauty society that looks at the face and speaks today.

Back to the topic, how to deal with Western agricultural invasions?

It's very simple, reduce the price of high-tech seedlings.

Many girls shout that cherries are free, but do you know that to put it bluntly, it is a high-tech cherry. The reason why it is expensive is that in addition to the cost of planting and transportation insurance, it is actually a factor in seedlings.

The first sales volume of cherry varieties is Earlise, the second is Sequoia, the third is Brooks, the fourth is Chelan, the fifth is Coral Champagne, the sixth is Royal Dawn Dawn, due to translation errors, it is called Royal flavor in China, the seventh is Santina, the eighth is Rainier Golden Rainier, the ninth is Bing ice type, the tenth is Lapins, the eleventh is Kordia, the twelfth is Skeena, the thirteenth is SweetHeart sweetheart, the fourteenth is Regina, and the fifteenth is Staccato Skato.

It is not difficult to see from the above ranking that among the top 15 best-selling cherry varieties in the world, none of which are produced in China, mainly controlled the cherry seedling market in North America and Canada. The Czechs cultivated Cordia in 1991, and currently occupies the eleventh global sales. It is already a strange color in the cherry field.

In this case, if Chinese people want to achieve cherry freedom, they will undoubtedly have to pay. Even the most mediocre seedlings cost dozens of yuan per plant, and high-quality varieties cost hundreds of yuan. Moreover, due to the high monopoly, if you are willing to pay, others may not be willing to sell them to you.

This is where high-end fruits come from and why they are so expensive.

To put it bluntly, the reason why the Chinese cherry was not eliminated in the past was because Western agricultural enterprises did not really invest heavily in siege the city.

However, it is different now. The clarion call of the agricultural general offensive has been sounded. Western agricultural enterprises have brought cherries with extremely high technological content, dozens of high-quality products. They are allowed to choose from Chinese farmers or farms. The prices are so low that they have no friends. In this case, it will not take long before the land of China will be planted with cherry trees from North America and Canada.

Fruit trees also have birth, old age, sickness and death. When the life cycle of this seedling is over, the Chinese will go to the West to buy seedlings. Then all the people have a lot of food and finally realize their dream of free cherries.

In this happy agricultural party, the only problem is the loss of control. What should we do if the West refuses to sell seedlings in one day?

This is just fruits and vegetables. According to the information, there are also huge imports in my country's staple grain seedlings, among which soybeans and corn are the hardest hit areas. Whenever Luo Jia thinks of this, she always feels very careful and can't sleep at night.

Now, Luo Jia has decided to personally join the battle for agricultural hegemony, and with the help of the secret network, we invite super strong support, great plant civilization, and the magical clan that controls plants is simply a magical clan.

According to current data, Luo Jia speculates that the golden dome he inherited may be a mechanical civilization or a close branch of mechanical civilization. In other words, the plant technology provided by Lan Yu is likely to be more advanced than the one owned by the golden dome.

Early in the morning, the Ministry of Agriculture under Xingchen Technology rarely welcomed its boss Luo Jia, which made all agricultural researchers very excited. As an inseparable group, the Ministry of Chemistry and Life Sciences, starting last month, they have concentrated on sending troops to the Ministry of Agriculture and sending their respective elites to the Ministry of Agriculture to support the work of the Ministry of Agriculture, which also gave them a premonition that the company may have to make big moves in agriculture.

The head of the Ministry of Agriculture of Xingchen Technology is Du Wei. Du Wei has a moderate undergraduate degree and studied at Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, but his doctorate graduated from Wageningen University, the world's number one in agriculture and forestry majoring.

In Xingchen Technology, which is full of geniuses, Du Wei is an alien. His talent is excellent at best. If he can be half as safe as possible, he will probably wake up laughing in his dream at night.

Du Wei has made it hard to achieve today's achievements step by step. Perhaps in this materialistic society, children who are willing to study agriculture all have a simple stubbornness. Du Wei is just as talented, but his spiritual attributes are almost full. He never knows what to admit defeat or what to exhaust, and is good at studying.

In fact, the entire Ministry of Agriculture has a simple temperament. On that day, Luo Jia walked here and summoned Du Wei and several other main responsible persons to hold a meeting.

After a while, the Wen brothers from the Department of Life Sciences also came, and brought several big guys from the Department of Life Sciences and their proud disciple Yinghui.

The meeting was chaired by Luo Jia. He smiled and announced on the spot: "Before starting, I will inform you first. From today on, the Ministry of Agriculture will no longer be an independent research institute, but will be included in the management of the Ministry of Life Sciences."

After announcing this, Luo Jia asked with his eyes, and the Ministry of Agriculture, from Du Wei to other researchers, was not at all displeased and was incorporated into the Ministry of Life Sciences. It seemed that they were quite happy.

The reason why Du Wei is happy is that the Department of Life Sciences is extremely strong. The company has only three first-level departments, hardware, software, and life sciences. The rest are a bunch of second-level research institutes, third-level laboratories, and fourth-level scientific research project teams.

The Ministry of Agriculture is the company's second-level independent research institute and is classified as the Ministry of Life Sciences. It is equivalent to following the two legendary bosses of the Wen brothers in the future, and relying on a big tree to enjoy the cool air.

Secondly, being classified into the Ministry of Life Sciences is equivalent to the selection of the final route of agriculture. The Wen brothers are engaged in genetic research, which also means that the Ministry of Agriculture will take the path of gene editing in the future.

Du Wei and others agreed that agriculture will not have a future without entering the level of gene editing, transformation, or even rewriting, so they are very happy to follow the Wen brothers in the future and do things that are not so just or politically correct, but can truly solve problems and be beneficial to the future.

"Look at everyone being so excited today, but I really can't be happy." Luo Jia glanced at the dozen people present, and then smashed her mouth and said, "We science people, when they say they want to develop genetically modified organisms and genetically modified foods, their eyes shivered with excitement."

"However, have you ever thought about it? How difficult is it to convince the people to make the old men and mothers in the vegetable market trust genetically modified foods and slowly accept genetically modified foods?"

"In a term for online novels, the difficulty of what we are going to do is simply amazing!"

"In the past, there was a man named Cui Yongyuan who made a documentary and scolded genetically modified foods so much that it was bloody. As a result, it received widespread support from the people across the country, causing huge difficulties in related scientific research."

"I won't say anything about Cui Yongyuan's opposition to genetically modified foods, because opposition is his right. However, he must not spread rumors everywhere because of opposition."

"In traditional breeding methods, there is one type that uses dimethyl sulfate to soak seeds. The ordinary people will never know that dimethyl sulfate has strong carcinogenic properties. The reason why breeding research does this is to make the seeds get cancer. To put it bluntly, it is to pursue gene mutations! Where can high-yield varieties come from without gene mutations?"

"In addition, there is a breeding method that has been widely publicized, which is to take the seeds into space and then plant them in geography, and the crops will be highly productive."

"How happy the people heard this. This thing is great, space technology! Cosmic breeding!"

"In fact? The reason why breeding research is done this is to let cosmic rays illuminate the seeds or to promote gene mutations!"

“And what is gene editing?”

"Simply put, gene editing is to throw seeds into space to illuminate cosmic rays. This simple and crude, undirected gene mutation is replaced by a regulated and directed gene mutation."

"This world is always so ironic. Scientific researchers are doing great and arduous work for the most basic survival needs of mankind, but they are slandered by a group of ignorant people."
