"As far as I know, this technology is a world-class topic. Does your research center have such capabilities?" Although he felt that it seemed a bit impolite to ask this, Li Xiumin still expressed a considerable degree of doubt about it.

Jiang Feng laughed and said, "Although we started late, we have started researching related projects three years ago and have achieved some achievements at present."

Because he has doubts about genetic technology, especially genetically modified technology, and Jiang Feng is not a person who is afraid of medical treatment. If he has doubts, he naturally wants to do some research and see why. Therefore, Jiang's research on genetically modified projects is mainly carried out from two aspects. One is that Jiang Feng itself does not trust the safety performance of genetically modified foods, and the other is that although the planting base mainly produces green natural foods.

Of course, Jiang Feng also considered that once the national legislation opens up the genetically modified food, he also needs to have corresponding technologies. Therefore, after the establishment of Jiangshi Biotechnology Company, Jiang Feng has been considering this matter. Later, Yang Shimin became his woman and took charge of Jiangshi Biotechnology Company, the project officially started. However, the project was carried out very low-key and the location was also chosen in a relatively remote place in the northeast.

The scientific argumentation of genetically modified food has been tangled abroad since the 1980s. A large number of scientific evidence has proved that genetically modified food is indeed harmful to the human body and has cancer-causing substances because the consequences of genetic changes in crops cannot be controlled.

This conclusion was first related to dairy cows. Genetically modified milk emerged in the United States. The so-called genetically modified cows are injecting hormones into the cows. The cows after injecting hormones can increase milk production, and the milk production can be increased by about 30%, but the lifespan of cows will be reduced by two years on average. Moreover, cows frequently suffer from breast cancer and other symptoms.

This genetically modified cow was invented by Monsanto, the American company. Most Chinese people don’t seem to know much about Monsanto. During the Vietnam War, the US team spread poison every day to fight against jungle guerrillas, causing large forest deaths. This medicine was developed by Monsanto.

In fact, this medicine is a herbicide, called an orange agent. The harm and impact of orange agents are very far-reaching. For decades, no grass grows in those places.

Monsanto is also an old company. It is as famous as DuPont and Dow Chemical. The foundation that supports genetically modified technology is a foundation under Rockefeller. The institutions involved in the research and development include Monsanto, DuPont, Dow Chemical, etc. Monsanto has established a joint venture in China at this time, and the best-selling cotton-grown cotton 33b in the country was developed and developed by this company.

Monsanto's main goal now is to control Chinese seed production companies. Even India's largest hybrid seed company has a joint venture with Monsanto.

As for DuPont, there is no need to introduce it. Anyone with a little common sense knows it, but everyone may not know about DuPont's Pioneer Seed Company.

Pioneer Seed Industry's seeds are the leader in my country's corn seed industry. Pioneer Seed Industry has jointly ventured with China's largest corn seed company, Denghai Seed Industry, and has developed ace seeds in the industry - Xianyu 335, for the Chinese corn hybrid seed market.

Northeast is the largest grain production base in my country, and in the entire Northeast market, the corn seeds of Xianyu 335 account for more than half of the market share. In order to buy American corn seeds, farmers in Northeast China first pay the company advance payment, and it is a sky-high price. This year, benefiting from the impact of the price increase in grain, the market price of one bag of Xianyu 335 seeds is 130 yuan per pack. A bag weighs 4 kilograms. It should be noted that most corn seeds from domestic brands are sold for 7-10 yuan per pack (4 kilograms).

Why is Xianyu 335 so awesome? Because the average yield is 20 to 30 percent higher, the survival rate is also the key. Xianyu 335's survival rate is basically 100 percent. my country's national standard is 85 percent, which means that 99 corn can be successfully grown out of the 100 seeds of Xianyu 335. And China's corn only grows 85 even if it is qualified, my country's corn seeds need 3-4 seeds to plant a nest, and Xianyu 335 seeds to plant a nest, which can improve yield and improve efficiency. In addition, Xianyu 335 has a disease resistance, and has a good drought resistance effect. This magical seed is genetically modified corn seeds.

Some industry experts say that the mother of this American variety comes from China, which is not impossible, because a long time ago, the American Pioneer Company came to China for inspection and picked several Chinese wild soybeans at the airport.

The purity of Chinese wild soybeans is the highest in the world. After taking this soybean back, they relied on this sample to cultivate new varieties. Their high oil volume and high disease resistance characteristics quickly conquered the world market. The United States' soybean exports account for 37% of the total grain exports. China is the second largest soybean importer in the world. This soybean is also a genetically modified soybean launched by its company. China's things were improved by the United States and then used the high government subsidies to be dumped in China. In comparison, China's soybeans are not only high in price but also of bad quality, and are no match for American soybeans at all.

At present, many domestic seed companies are facing an existential crisis and cannot compete with foreign seed companies, so they have jointly operated with Western powers. Chinese seed companies do not have advanced technology and their actual control is in the hands of foreign companies. In other words, most of the food we eat and most of the oil we eat are actually controlled by Americans. Therefore, some people have said that the real power to control our food, clothing, housing and transportation does not come from the government or the market, but from Wall Street in the United States.

After briefly introducing the current seed market situation to a few girls, Jiang Feng said to them: "In addition to the above bulk grain seed market, the vegetable seed market is also the world of foreign brands. Foreign brands account for more than half of the country's share, among which tomatoes, eggplant, cucumber seeds, and pepper seeds are all the world of foreign brands. For example, the Dutch Bulita eggplant seeds are sold for more than 100 yuan per gram, and the domestic enterprises' eggplant seeds are only sold for 80 cents per gram. No matter whether they are cucumbers, tomatoes, eggplant or other seeds, as long as they are sold by foreign brands, it can be compared with the gold price."

Yang Shimin also said: "Most of the vegetable seeds come from Europe. They do not have genetically modified ingredients, but they are ordinary hybrids and can be eaten with confidence. However, for the West, especially the great powers dominated by the United States, the purpose of the grain market is not simple. Once the food war begins, it may be reflected as an overwhelming advantage. However, whether it is to seize power and make profits or otherwise, the purpose of using genetically modified grain crops is more cold-blooded. Genetically modified seeds will cause long-term genetic pollution to the land and affect the characteristics of plants. Some effects after consumption may lurk in the human body for a long time and cause serious damage to immunity."

"Our research center is private, and in fact, it is just to figure out one thing: whether the harm of genetically modified crops exists and how much influence is? Also, if there is no harm, then we must also have the ability to provide a large amount of domestic seeds to resist the invasion of foreign seeds." Jiang Feng said.

"You are really respectable!" Li Xiumin said very seriously after hearing this.

Li Xiumin's respect for Jiang Feng, Yang Shimin and others is indeed from the bottom of her heart, which is mainly related to her former military service.

In fact, Li Xiumin had better grades before joining the army, but because of her family conditions, she had to choose to join the army rather than go to college after graduating from high school. During her time in the army, she also studied hard, which was not only about military-related matters, but also understood some other cutting-edge sciences, so after hearing Jiang Feng talk about these, her feelings became deeper.

Genetically modified technology is still a relatively new topic in China. Although my country has been studying this area for several years, in fact, it is basically poor in this area. There are few biotechnology experts in China, and even less experts in genetically modified technology. Although domestic media are currently mentioning genetically modified technology or genetically modified foods from time to time, most of the time they are heard about, citing the statements and information of foreigners. My own research on this area is indeed relatively blank.

Jiang Feng's Jiang's consortium was able to invest a lot of manpower and material resources in this field with the power of a private company. In addition to saying that Jiang Feng is rich and powerful, he can only say that he has a sense of responsibility.

I am afraid that everyone wants to let Chinese people eat food that they can rest assured, but there are only a few people who are able to do this, and even fewer people who are able to do it and are willing to spend money on this matter on their own.

Therefore, Li Xiumin cannot help but admire Jiang Feng and others. They do have a very strong sense of social responsibility.

"I admit that, especially Shimin, has put in great effort in this regard." Jiang Feng fully affirmed this. "The technicians and experts she led have built this research center from scratch, and have achieved many very advanced technical achievements in just three years, which I had unexpectedly expected at the beginning."

Jiang Feng was not talking nonsense about this. Although he had considered that he should do a good job in research on genetically modified crops while growing green natural foods on a large scale, he did not put any effort into this regard because he could not take care of it too much, but Yang Shimin did it for him.
