Chapter 672: Sensational computational seed science and the perfect desert sweet potato
If you want to say who is the most famous among young people now and who is the most popular, then Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun will definitely be at the top of the list. Those young and popular young actors and young fans will still rack their brains to create scandals to make their presence feel. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun don’t need to deliberately brush it. Any news about them will definitely spread as quickly as possible on the Internet.
At this time, the hot debate among the whole people has not completely disappeared due to the huge value of their doctoral thesis. The scientific research and academic circles are quietly mentioning these two outstanding youngest first-level professors with envy. The media regards the two as the focus of attention. Anything that has made some changes is unsatisfactory to dig deep into the report to attract attention and increase traffic.
So when the news that "Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun developed a great new type of crop that was epoch-making" appeared, it almost seemed to have grown wings and spread on the Internet in just two or three hours.
But what is magical is that it is clearly related to crops. The original source of the news was not the seed academic community or the botanical community, but it was reported from the group of experts and professors for sand control. It was said that they were still in the meeting, but the superior announced the suspension of the meeting and notified that on the afternoon of July 23, a large-scale meeting will be held in the capital. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, a first-level professor at Qingmu University, will give a special report. The two will present a new and epoch-making crop that has been recently studied and developed.
Moreover, this conference also requires all experts and professors from sand control across the country, as well as famous experts and professors in the seed academic, botany, mathematics, and computer programming who received the invitation, must attend the meeting.
Everyone was not surprised that Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun had studied new crop seeds. After all, they had developed patented technologies for seed cultivation including new tomatoes. However, this was clearly a special report on crops. It would be fine to let the seed academic and botanical communities participate in the conference, but why did they even bring experts and professors from the mathematics, computer science and even sand prevention and control to listen to this report?
Many experts and professors from other places were gusting while having to put down their projects and hurriedly book air tickets and high-speed rail tickets.
Major media were even more moved and asked around.
I don’t know if it was because the superiors were deliberately making noises or because the media had great powers, but they actually found out a lot of important news within a few hours and quickly reported it.
The first thing that was exposed was the theme of the conference - "Computational Seeds and "Perfect Desert Sweet Potatoes".
News about computational seeds caused a sensation more than two years ago. At the annual conference of the Seed Industry Association, Qin Ke used mathematical derivation of the results of the DNA mutation, revealing the dishonest mistakes he deliberately made in Professor Yan Fulong's report, which made a stunning success. Then Ning Qingyun came on stage and gave a report entitled "Computational Seeds" on behalf of the two, which caused a sensation in the seed industry, and it was expensive in Luoyang.
At that time, almost all the experts and professors attending the meeting said that although there are many imperfections in this "computational seed science", it is extremely creative and has a broad future prospect. It is said that many agricultural universities have also set up special expert teams for this to study how to apply and develop this "computational seed science".
Unfortunately, since that time, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun have never made any relevant reports or published relevant papers. Experts and professors in the seed science community and researchers have been struggling for several months and found that it is too difficult to continue in-depth research and beyond their ability, so they have to give up.
In addition, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun successively conquered world-class problems including the Hail Conjecture, the Goldbach Conjecture, and the Riemann Conjecture in mathematics, and won the Fields Medal. Everyone thought that they had put their minds on mathematics. This "computational seed" had been abandoned and not studied again. Many professors, including Director Xiang Shouqian of the Department of Biology at Qingmu University, were extremely regretful.
Who would have thought that after more than two years, the word "computational seed science" that has lost popularity has been tied to Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun again and appeared in front of everyone?
And this time there is a new species of "perfect desert sweet potato"!
Is this the epoch-making great crop in the rumor? Does desert sweet potatoes mean that they can be grown in the desert or what does it mean?
Before anyone concerned about this matter could discuss the outcome, the media with great powers announced the answer in the early morning of that day.
Moreover, the one who released this news was the largest and most influential "Xia Guo Academic Journal" in China!
"This newspaper reported that today, a news about Professor Qin Ke and Professor Ning Qingyun's research on new crops has attracted attention. Our reporter learned from the national patent technology management department that the department has indeed received a patent application entitled "A Perfect Sweet Potato Hybrid Cultivation Technology for Planting in Semi-Sanderinized Areas", and has passed the acceptance. The preliminary review process officially entered the announcement process at 0:00 this morning, and the public will conduct objection review and enter a temporary protection state."
"This newspaper reporter logged into the website of the department and found the overview title page of this patent specification in the designated module, confirming that the right holder of the patent was Professor Qin Ke and Professor Ning Qingyun. According to the information on the title page, the data on all aspects of the new crop called "Perfect Sweet Potato" is far beyond imagination. If it is true, it is not an exaggeration to call it "epoch-making great crop". Its characteristics are as follows:..."
This press release in "Xiaguo Academic Journal" was published at 0:05 in the morning. It was only five minutes before Qin Kening Qingyun's patented technology entered the publication stage, and it also introduced in detail the various extraordinary characteristics and growth data of "perfect desert sweet potato".
This is when most people are asleep, but the Xiaguo Academic Journal has more than 100 million fans, and the topic involves two star gods, Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun, which immediately attracted great attention and crazy reposts from Night Owl netizens. I don’t know how many people @Qin Ke and @Ning Qingyun asked for verification, and more people flocked directly to the website of the patent technology management department to confirm.
The amazing number of visits quickly caused the patent technology management department's website to collapse and no longer be accessible.
Fortunately, some fast-moving netizens opened the link and put screenshots of the content of the web page on the scarf.
As a result, the entire network became more lively, and countless replies sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
[What kind of fairy sweet potato is this? Can it grow in semi-desertized soil? And it only needs to be watered once a week?]
[The most exaggerated thing is that its temperature of keeping cold and heat is survived from close to -30 degrees Celsius to nearly 50 degrees Celsius. Perhaps only poplar trees can compare with it. Is this still a crop? I remember that my cactus forgot to take it back at home the winter of the previous year. It froze into ice on the outdoor balcony at minus 20 degrees Celsius and never survived...]
[The ones upstairs can produce sweet potato fruits, why aren't they crops? These sweet potatoes can be eaten normally, and the nutrients displayed are higher than those of ordinary sweet potatoes.]
[No, I think its greatest significance lies in the ability to improve the sandy soil and turn it back to normal soil. This is a powerful tool for sand prevention and control!]
[It is worthy of being Qin Shen and Ning. The tomatoes that could be grown in barren mountains were magical enough. This desert sweet potato is ten times more magical!]
[I have different opinions. To be honest, the various characteristics and data are a bit too exaggerated. I don’t really believe that such a species can be born... This is not a divine thing that nature can produce.]
[Of course it was not born naturally. It was a brand new variety that Qin Shen and Ning finally cultivated. Since they applied for a patent, it means that these overview content is true. How could they fake it with their academic reputation?]
[Yes, and have you forgotten the doctoral debate paper of Ning some time ago? Isn’t it the precise drip irrigation technology mentioned in this patent that is suitable for desertified soil? It can be seen that they have been engaged in this research for a long time.]
[Contact with the theme of the special report meeting on July 23, is this perfect sweet potato researched through computational seed science? This is so awesome!]
After all, most netizens are not professionals, and can only guess and discuss from the surface of the text, and do not realize that "computational seeds" and "perfect desert sweet potato" are enough to influence the entire industry and even the entire world.
But the hot discussions on the Internet still quickly pushed #Perfect Desert Sweet Potato# to the top of the hot search list.
When I was at work the next morning, countless office workers opened their mobile phones to scan their scarves on the road, and were immediately attracted by hot searches and joined the discussion craze, which made the related topics more and more popular. In addition, #Computing Seeds Science# and #Special Reports for Qin Shen and Ning on July 23, they all reached the second and third place in the hot search list.
With such a huge amount of attention from netizens, the media naturally reported crazy reports like they were injected with chicken blood, digging for related news.
They found that Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun could not contact each other, so they contacted Qingmu University, relevant departments, Qingning Technology, and Professor Daniu in the industry.
Qingmu University was also confused by questioning. Even Vice President Gu Bojun, who was very familiar with Qin Ke and Ning Qingjun, only knew that Qin Ke had conducted crop research, but never heard the two mention "desert sweet potatoes". When asked, he was caught off guard and could only barely make excuses on the grounds of protecting the privacy of the school professors.
As for Qingning Technology's public relations department, it has long been familiar with it. It said to the media that they came to interview that they have indeed submitted relevant patent applications, but they don't know anything else. Please pay attention to the special report meetings of the two professors the day after tomorrow.
However, a reporter from Xiaguo Seed Industry Innovation News successfully interviewed Professor Gong Chengji, a big shot in the seed industry, based on his personal relationship.
Professor Gong Chengji is a second-level full professor at Xiaguo Agricultural University and a general consultant for sweet potato cultivation technology of a large listed seed company. He enjoys a reputation in the seed industry, but he is a little arrogant and difficult to get along with.
The reporter finally managed to successfully ask Professor Gong to be interviewed and asked him politely: "Professor Gong, do you pay attention to the news that Professor Qin Ke and Professor Ning Qingyun have recently developed a perfect desert sweet potato?"
Gong Chengji slowly pushed the reading glasses on his nose and replied: "I have heard it, and people everywhere say that my ears are not deaf."
The reporter's young lady gurgled in her heart. The old professor was really hard to speak, and then asked carefully: "Can you express your opinion? For example, is it possible that such a desert sweet potato exists?"
"I'm not sure. According to the news, this is just a submission of patent technology applications. I have never seen the actual finished product, nor have I ever seen Professor Qin or Qingning Technology promote the existence of such a new crop."
