Chapter 1035: Are we a company that lacks this little money?
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "No matter what, I can't do it for personal gain. So, if you want to win this project, you have to look at your own abilities. But personally, I am more optimistic about this project."
Seeing that Wu Hao did not buy it, Yang Fang was slightly disappointed, but this disappointment was fleeting. She then smiled at Wu Hao and said: "It is already very rare to have your approval. I am very confident in this project.
"
Wu Hao nodded, then thought for a moment, then looked at Yang Fang and said, "Well, let me listen to the opinions of the heads of your research center first."
Oh, when Wu Hao said this, Yang Fang became excited instantly, and then showed a bright smile: "Thank you, Mr. Wu, don't worry, I promise to create a beautiful sea of roses for you and Mr. Lin."
Wu Hao smiled and waved his hand: "It's not for us, I'm optimistic about this project not for anyone, but I am optimistic about the development prospects of this project.
So what you have to do is to focus on research and everything on projects, do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will definitely focus on project research and development." Yang Fang put away her smile and responded seriously.
Wu Hao smiled with satisfaction after hearing this, and then asked the vast sandy land with a smile: "I remember that you studied many drought-tolerant plants. What about the moso bamboo I saw last time and the drought-tolerant corn you mentioned?
What's going on with the two plants now?"
Hearing his question, Yang Fang immediately answered him: "Research on these two plants is still continuing, and good results have been achieved. At present, we have successfully extracted the fast-growing gene of moso bamboo and started to
Try to insert some drought-tolerant plants that are suitable for growing next to the desert, such as Populus euphratica, willow, poplar, etc.
However, the gene fusion process is very complicated, and it is even more difficult to get these plants to accept another gene and change their production habits. Therefore, the entire experimental research work is still proceeding in an orderly manner, and it may still take some time to produce results.
A longer way to go.
Another direction is to extract the drought-tolerant genes of some drought-tolerant plants suitable for growing next to the desert, such as Populus euphratica, willow willow, poplar poplar, etc., and then implant them into moso bamboo to facilitate
Moso bamboo is adapted to the arid and saline-alkali environment here.
No matter which method is used, it involves gene editing and gene hybrid recombination technologies in plants, so the entire research process can be said to be very difficult.
Currently, there are many biological laboratories around the world that are conducting research in this area, but none of them has such cross-order, family, and genus research results.
Moreover, most laboratories now mainly study gene editing and recombination of plants of the same order, family, and genus. Because the species are similar, the rejection will be much smaller, which makes it easier to produce results.
In fact, what we know as grafting, hybridization, and transgenics are all considered gene editing technologies. An example that we come into contact with every day, such as citrus, grapefruit, oranges, and lemons, are actually cultivated through these technologies.
The famous hybrid rice is actually based on this principle."
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this, then smiled at Yang Fang and said: "Don't worry, I have confidence in you and your team, I believe you will definitely make history.
You and everyone else know what this technological achievement means, so I won’t emphasize it. I hope you can continue to work hard and not let down such good conditions and resources, let alone my and everyone’s expectations.
"
"Don't worry, we will continue to work hard and strive to achieve fruitful results in the shortest possible time to repay the company and Mr. Wu for your strong support and care for us." Yang Fang assured Wu Hao.
Wu Hao, on the other hand, shook his head: "I told you, don't rush, you are doing research, you just have to be patient and take your time."
Yes, Yang Fang nodded, and then continued to introduce to Wu Hao: "Then there is drought-tolerant corn. In fact, corn itself has good drought tolerance and salt-alkali resistance. We screened among many varieties and selected them.
Some qualified seeds are cultivated, and then genes are extracted from them for editing, fusion and recombination, thereby cultivating new varieties.
Compared with moso bamboo, this project is relatively simple. In fact, the genetic modification technology of these crops is still very good now. If we want to make a difference in this area, it is relatively easy.
However, we encounter not only technical problems, but also other external problems. Especially the current public lack of understanding of genetically modified technology, resulting in fear, will affect the progress of this project.
Then there is the relevant regulatory system. At present, relevant national departments are cautious about genetically modified technology and genetically modified crops. Therefore, if we want to conduct some more in-depth research and related experiments, we must obtain approval from relevant departments.
Finally, there are some environmental organizations and environmentalists, who are very resistant to genetically modified technology. Once targeted by them, it will be very difficult to deal with, and it may even affect the company's reputation."
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this: "These problems are indeed very troublesome, but they are not insurmountable. In fact, all well-known biological companies are now carrying out research on genetically modified technology. Of course, our domestic enterprises cannot fall behind.
Therefore, relevant departments will not prevent this kind of forward-looking technical research. You don’t have to worry too much about this aspect, just follow the normal procedures.
As for the other two problems, these are two real problems. The first is the unknown panic of the people. This requires time to accept and adapt. It will not be solved in a short time. Take your time.
As for these environmental organizations and environmentalists, don't pay attention to them for the time being. It's just a waste of more spit.
Of course, in order to avoid some trouble at this stage, those who should be kept confidential must do a good job in keeping it confidential, so as to reduce the impact and interference of external factors on your normal scientific research projects."
"We must do a good job in keeping the relevant confidentiality work to prevent the leakage of relevant research content. Moreover, it is deep in the desert and sparsely populated, so it is easy to carry out relevant confidentiality work." Yang Fang replied with a smile.
In response, Wu Hao waved his hand with a wry smile: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed in this regard. Director Qi was telling me just now that the base will try to open to the outside world and allow some tour groups and tourists to come in and visit."
... Yang Fang turned to look at Qi Guangkun speechlessly, and then asked them both: "Are we a company that lacks this little money?"
