MTL - A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village-Chapter 686 GMO base
Sumitomo Estate.
In a luxurious study, Sumitomo Ichimura frowned while listening to his subordinate's report. Now he is the new acting helm of the current Sumitomo consortium. The previous helm of the consortium, Sumitomo Murakami, was his elder brother.
But a few months ago, the samurai adults and their elder brother seemed to go to some place to perform a mission, but there is no news yet.
After all, the huge consortium needs a leader, so he temporarily became the acting helm of the consortium under the recommendation of the clansmen.
"What have you discovered recently?" Sumitomo Ichimura asked the subordinate. He now loves the feeling of being in power. Although Sumitomo Murakami is his elder brother. He also misses his brother very much and hopes that nothing has happened to him. But now he has a little hope in his heart that his brother will never come back. In this way, he can remove the word acting patriarch and truly become the patriarch, the helm of the Sumitomo Foundation!
"We found the original team, and then found a small basin, and found that the place was an ancestral land of our Sumitomo family, but the entrance collapsed. It is currently excavating, and it is estimated that some clues will be found." Menxia Hui reported.
"Well, then you go down, remember, once you find something, report it to me immediately!"
"Yes!"
After this subordinate left, he felt a little melancholy in his heart. Because there have been no samurai in the family for a few months now, and I don't know if the samurai before are dead or not. There was no news from above, which made him a little anxious.
"However, none of these matters! If my brother is gone, then I will be the real leader of the consortium." Sumitomo Ichimura sneered in his heart.
If he becomes the real helm of the consortium, then he will try his best to train his son, hoping that he can become the helm of the next generation, although the helm of the consortium needs to be selected by capable people. If his son's ability is outstanding, coupled with his help, it is not impossible for his son to be at the helm of the next generation!
…
A motorcade was galloping on the dirt road, the yellow sand filled the sky.
It didn't take long for the team to come to a large field.
A big billboard appeared at the intersection ahead, which read: Nanye Genetically Modified Crop Base.
Continue to drive along this road. After driving for about ten minutes, I came to a building. This building covers an area of about 200 acres. There are dormitory buildings, buildings like research institutes and so on...
That's right, this is the research base of genetically modified crops under Nanye Foods!
Today, Shuichi Minano came here to investigate.
Here, the company has contracted 1000 acres of land for experimental research.
The GM crops in the first phase of research include rice, corn, and soybean.
In the plan, the transgenic crops studied in the second phase are eggplant, tomato, wheat, cucumber, peanut…
At present, the GMO department of Nanye Foods has hired more than 30 professors, experts, and more than 50 graduates of agricultural universities as assistants, and more than 100 farmers.
is to develop various genetically modified crops!
Among them, 3 professors of plants, 5 professors of agriculture, 5 professors of biology, 8 experts of crops, 2 chemists... 2 scientists...
Anyway, many experts and professors who are useful for transgenics have been invited. These more than 30 people are relatively well-known, or have made outstanding contributions to crop research…
Transgenic, there is a lot of knowledge and design knowledge, so many experts and professors have been hired to work together to study it.
As for the more than 50 college students who graduated from agricultural universities, they all came to work as assistants, just to help out. There are more than 100 farmers who are here to help with farming or something. After all, professors can't be allowed to farm, they are doing research.
Planting crops still needs these farmers to do it, just follow the professor's instructions.
"Welcome welcome, warm welcome!"
The convoy had just arrived at the gate of the base, and more than 200 people had already stood in row N to welcome Shuichi Minano.
got out of the car, put on a hat and sunglasses, Minano Shuichi smiled and said, "Hello everyone!"
After some courtesies, he entered the base and began to understand how the current research work was going.
"Two months have passed, what progress have you made so far?" Minano Hideyoshi asked a professor led by the pair.
"Mr. Chairman, we have not made any great progress yet. But the genetically modified crops you proposed have given us great inspiration."
"The theoretical basis of the transgenic technology you mentioned comes from molecular biology derived from the theory of evolution. The source of the gene fragment can be the target gene required for extracting the genome of a specific organism, or it can be artificially synthesized DNA fragments of specified sequences. DNA fragments It is transferred into a specific organism, recombined with its own genome, and then artificially selected for several generations from the recombinant, so as to obtain individuals with stable expression of specific genetic traits. This technology can make recombinant organisms increase the expected New traits, bred new varieties…”
"We have already started research in this direction, and we have also opened up several experimental fields to start planting... I believe that there will be breakthroughs by the end of this year." A biology professor said.
"Well, that's good, you must hurry up to study and do experiments. The future is up to you." Nanye Xiuyi said calmly. He knew that GMOs could not be developed in a short time, and he only gave them a general research direction. As for when it can be developed, it still takes time.
So it is normal that there have been no breakthroughs in the past two months.
After some conversation, he went to a few experimental fields under the leadership of a group of people to have a look.
"Mr. Chairman, this area is the base of genetically modified rice, and there are experimental fields for genetically modified corn and soybeans..." a person in charge introduced.
Looking at these test fields, he is very satisfied and seems to be doing well.
"At present, our GMO research is definitely the world's first, but it will be hard to say in a few years. Now, while no one has developed it yet, do you all need to work hard to know?" Minano Shuichi said.
"Yes!" A group of people nodded and bowed.
After an afternoon inspection, he went back satisfied.
He didn’t know that the Nanye GMO Crop Base later became the largest research base in the world, and countless people came to study. Its long-standing industrial value has become the world's first existence.
also wrote a heavy stroke in his plan!
