boss!

Hi boss!

Boss, the seeds of this rice have almost germinated, and it is growing rapidly, more than five times that of ordinary rice. If it produces five times as many ears of rice, then this rice is even more powerful than super rice.

When people in the Agricultural Research Laboratory saw Zhou Feiyu's arrival, they all said hello.

The person in charge of the research office is a doctoral student who graduated from Jiangnan Agricultural University. His name is Huang Hongsheng. His research strength is somewhat but not very outstanding. When there was basically no future in the field of rice research, he decisively recruited people from Feiyang. I switched jobs from Professor Yuan.

Here in Feiyang, although it is located in a remote place, people doing agricultural research are basically in this environment, so naturally they don't think anything of it.

Huang Hongsheng doesn't feel like a fish in water, but at least his work goes smoothly and there are no various assessments. He can even feel comfortable.

Of course, everyone actually wants to make a career, especially highly educated people.

Feiyang's software and hardware conditions were not good enough. Huang Hongsheng originally thought that it would be impossible to make big achievements here.

But he soon discovered that he was wrong.

First, Zhou Feiyu was willing to invest, and soon after listening to his understanding of genetic technology, he decisively purchased a lot of mechanical equipment according to his suggestions, spending no less than ten million, and paid quickly, which once shocked him.

Second, Zhou Feiyu is very smart, even a little too smart. His research knowledge on genes was quickly learned and understood by Zhou Feiyu. He can even draw inferences from one instance and think of places that he could not imagine, and he is very useful. Constructive and productive.

For example, in the rice seed experimental field in front of them, the green rice seedlings are growing very gratifyingly.

When Huang Hongsheng introduced it to Zhou Feiyu, he was still as shocked and excited as when he first started developing these seeds.

This batch of seeds is a finished product that is based on a failed genetically modified rice program he previously developed and optimized and adjusted according to Zhou Feiyu's optimization program. Not only did it successfully survive and germinate, but it also grew very quickly, so fast that he couldn't believe it.

As for the third point, all the mechanical equipment provided by Zhou Feiyu has been transformed by Feiyang Company itself, and all the software has been made domestically, and the level of intelligence has increased by at least 30%, giving everyone in the research room a sense of The feeling of using a curved arm, even for a newcomer who has just entered the laboratory.

Growth does not equal results. This batch of seeds does not have that ability.

Listening to Huang Hongsheng's slightly flattering words, Zhou Feiyu just smiled and said: This batch is just a verification product. It will be good if it can grow to maturity and be harvested.

This is not that Zhou Feiyu is being modest, but it is the fact.

Rice, as the staple food of the Chinese people, has occupied a very important historical position throughout history.

Improving rice production is the main way to ensure that Chinese people have enough to eat. The deceased Yuan Gong has almost solved this problem, and his successors are still climbing to the top.

However, Mr. Yuan and his successors took the path of hybridization, while Zhou Feiyu used the path of genetic modification this time, which is different.

In addition, Zhou Feiyu did not come here to solve the problem of rice production. He did not have that urgent need.

In this batch of seeds, Zhou Feiyu was experimenting with a special gene fragment: the polysaccharide synthesis gene.

In the medical world, polysaccharide is a magical active ingredient found in many tonic foods.

For example, when middle-aged people have no choice but to soak wolfberry in a thermos cup, the wolfberry contains wolfberry polysaccharide;

For example, polysaccharide is contained in the aromatic polysaccharide commonly used in cooking and stewing soups.

Both of these have been proven to have powerful effects such as inhibiting tumors, strengthening the body, improving immunity, anti-virus, and nourishing the liver and kidneys.

Not to mention wolfberry, it is almost a national health product, and its popularity is only slightly lower than that of ginseng. Ordinary people may not know about Xianggu, but those who often take health care products generally know that the Xianggu polysaccharide in Xianggu has been hyped up by countless health product companies, and it is almost said that it is a panacea.

There is a health care product company that started selling soy sauce. It relied on this polysaccharide to create a health care product business empire worth tens of billions. It was very low-key. If Zhou Feiyu hadn't had a classmate who made a fortune selling this product after graduation, He couldn't know either.

In the knowledge of intermediate gene editing technology, Zhou Feiyu discovered the polysaccharide synthesis gene fragment, and then after repeated communication with Huang Hongsheng and others during the experimental process, he accidentally discovered this gene that controls polysaccharide synthesis in both wolfberry and Xianggu. fragment.

Finally, Zhou Feiyu optimized and adjusted Huang Hongsheng's previous plan, edited the rice gene, and started his first attempt.

He hopes that rice can have similar polysaccharides when mature, like wolfberry or wolfberry, and can then be called rice polysaccharides.

Wolfberry is eaten occasionally, and Xianggu is also a dish. Although it is very beneficial to the human body, it cannot be eaten as a staple food.

This is not the case with rice, which is the staple food.

When rice has the same tonic effect as wolfberry, you can imagine what effect it has on the human body. Maybe eating it will make your body like a superman?

I hope it can succeed! If it succeeds, is this the spirit rice in fantasy fairy novels?

Zhou Feiyu was also looking forward to it.

Of course, eating this kind of genetically modified rice will cause nosebleeds after just two or three meals. It is not suitable for human consumption, and it is possible that it will be turned into a supplement.

Everything remains to be verified.

This time can't be achieved within a year or a half.

This is not something that can be done quickly, it requires long-term animal experiments.

Subsequently, Zhou Feiyu, Huang Hongsheng and others continued to observe and study the germination and growth of this batch of rice seeds, and conducted slice tests.

The results are gratifying. Although these seedlings grow too fast, they are very healthy and even strong. There should be no problem in harvesting them when they mature.

Keep watching.

Zhou Feiyu asked Huang Hongsheng to arrange for someone to take care of him, and he turned around and plunged into the laboratory.

In the laboratory, in addition to a large number of equipment, the most conspicuous thing is the materials, especially the white mice that are squeaking.

Well, it’s not just plant gene editing experiments, animals are actually the core. After all, Zhou Feiyu’s goal is people themselves.

It is an old tradition to use mice in the laboratory. 99% of the protein genes of mice are homologous to those of human beings. They also have the advantages of plentiful and fast reproduction, low breeding costs, and short generation cycles. They are really rare experimental samples.

There are hundreds of mice in the laboratory, covering various types, including healthy ones, those with various diseases, and gene knockout varieties.

Just these little mice cost more than half a million yuan.

Scientific experiments are the real money burners.
