Military Technology

Wu Hao shook his head with a smile: "No matter what, I can't use public affairs for personal gain. So, if you want to fight for this project, it depends on your own ability. But as far as I am concerned, I am more optimistic about this project."

Seeing that Wu Hao didn't buy it, Yang Fang was slightly disappointed, but this disappointment was fleeting, she immediately smiled at Wu Hao and said, "It's already very rare to have your approval, I am very confident in this project. "

Wu Hao nodded, then thought for a while, then looked at Yang Fang and said, "Well, let me listen to the opinions of the leaders of your research center first."

Oh, hearing what Wu Hao said, 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 hands: "It's not for us, I'm optimistic about this project and it's not for anyone else, but because I'm optimistic about the development prospects of this project.

So what you have to do is to focus on research and projects, 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 replied seriously.

Hearing this, Wu Hao showed a satisfied smile, and then asked the vast sandy land with a smile: "I remember that you have studied a lot of drought-tolerant plants. What about the moso bamboo I saw last time and the drought-resistant corn you mentioned? What is the situation of the two plants now?"

Hearing his question, Yang Fang immediately answered him: "The research on these two plants is still going on, and good results have been achieved. At present, we have successfully extracted the fast-growing gene of moso bamboo, and started Try to put some drought-tolerant plants that are suitable for growing next to the desert, such as Populus euphratica, willow, poplar and so on.

However, the process of gene fusion is very complicated, and it is even more difficult for these plants to accept another gene and change their production habits. Therefore, the entire experimental research work is still in progress in an orderly manner, and I am afraid there is still a long way to go before it can produce results.

Another direction is to extract some drought-tolerant plants suitable for growing next to the desert, such as Populus euphratica, dry willow, poplar and other drought-tolerant trees, and then implant them into moso bamboo to facilitate Moso bamboo is adapted to the arid and saline environment here.

No matter which method is used, it involves the technology of gene editing and gene hybrid recombination in plants, so the whole research process can be said to be very difficult.

At present, there are many biological laboratories in the world conducting research in this area, but none of them has such research results across orders and genera.

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 is easier to produce results.

In fact, grafting, hybridization, and transgenics as we know them are all gene editing techniques. An example that we can come into contact with every day, such as citrus, grapefruit, orange, and lemon, are actually cultivated through these technologies, and the famous hybrid rice is actually based on this principle. "

Wu Hao nodded when he heard the words, and then smiled at Yang Fang: "No hurry, I have confidence in you and your team, I believe you will definitely create history.

What this technological achievement means, you and everyone know well, so I won't emphasize it. I hope that you can continue to work hard and not disappoint 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.

As for Wu Hao, he shook his head: "I've said it all, don't rush, do research, just have to be patient and take your time."

Yes, Yang Fang nodded, and continued to introduce to Wu Hao: "Then there is drought-resistant corn,

In fact, corn itself has good drought and salinity resistance. We screen among many varieties, pick out some qualified seeds for cultivation, and then extract genes from them for editing, fusion and recombination, so as to cultivate new varieties.

Compared with moso bamboo, this project is relatively simple. In fact, the genetically modified technology of these crops is still doing well, and it is relatively easy for us to make a difference in this regard.

However, we encountered not only technical problems, but also other external problems. Especially the public's ignorance of genetically modified technology at present, and the resulting 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 they are targeted, it will be very difficult to deal with, and it may even affect the company's reputation. "

Wu Hao nodded when he heard the words: "These problems are indeed very troublesome, but they are not impossible to solve. In fact, all well-known biological companies are now conducting research on genetically modified technologies, and our domestic companies certainly cannot lag behind.

Therefore, relevant departments will not prevent such forward-looking technical research. You don't have to worry too much about this aspect, just follow the normal procedure.

As for the other two issues, these are two practical issues. The first is the public’s panic about the unknown, which takes time to accept and adapt to, and it won’t be resolved in a short while, so take your time.

As for these environmental organizations and environmentalists, don't bother with them for the time being, it's just a waste of saliva.

Of course, in order to avoid some troubles at this stage, you still have to do a good job of keeping it secret, so as to reduce the impact and interference of external factors on your normal scientific research projects. "

"We must do a good job in related 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 related confidentiality work." Yang Fang replied with a smile.

In this regard, Wu Hao waved his hand with a wry smile: "I'm afraid you will be disappointed in this aspect. Director Qi was still telling me just now that the base will try to open to the outside world and allow some tour groups and tourists to visit."

...Yang Fang turned her head to look at Qi Guangkun speechlessly, and then asked the two of them: "Are we a company that lacks this little money?"
