Chapter 48: One Point Afraid I'm Afraid He's Too Proud

Many biology experts and professors from other universities came to the second teaching building today.

Including seven or eight colleges and universities such as Tongji, Fuzhen, Jiaotong University, Southeast and Jinling.

They all rushed here after hearing that someone had successfully genetically modified aphids.

The key point is not the aphids, but [genetic modification].

Laymen are not too sensitive to the term "genetic modification", which has a certain sci-fi flavor, but in the biological world, it can be on an equal footing with the highest monument of "what is life".

All topics about genetic modification will quickly become the focus of attention of the biological world.

It is precisely because of this that when they heard that someone had successfully modified the aphid gene, one can imagine how excited these biological experts were?

If it weren't for the fact that many experts and scholars from universities have not received the news, it is no exaggeration to say that all biological experts in China will rush back.

Although Zhou Wen knew that genetic modification technology was very important, he still didn't have a more intuitive understanding.

When he saw the black heads in the big conference room and the gray-haired scholars in the front row, he was a little confused.

"These people... are all here to attend the defense meeting?"

Basically, all the undergraduates, masters and doctoral students from the Biology Department of Jiangzhou University came here.

Soon someone at the scene recognized Zhou Wen, and hundreds of pairs of eyes looked over him.

There was a moment of silence in the meeting room, and then there was a "buzzing" conversation.

Xu Shuangyu had already found a seat to sit down, while Zhou Wen bit the bullet and walked towards the front of the meeting room.

A senior in charge of the scene saw Zhou Wen approaching, led him to the second row of side seats and sat down, and then whispered: "You sit here for a while, the teacher will be here soon."

Zhou Wen nodded.

After knowing his identity, the experts and professors around him all stared at him, making him uncomfortable.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Wang Huiyao and the two leaders of the Academy of Biological Sciences came over together.

A row of professors sitting in front got up one after another.

"Hello, Professor Zhang."

"Director Qian, long time no see, please stay safe."

"Professor Zeng, I read the paper you published last time, it is very inspiring..."

A group of experts, professors and leaders praised each other, and then sat down separately.

The two leaders walked towards the podium, Wang Huiyao walked to Zhou Wen and said with a smile, "Follow me."

Zhou Wen got up and followed Wang Huiyao to the podium.

When the two leaders on the stage waited for Zhou Wen to come over, they nodded at him with smiles on their faces.

This is already a great deal of face, after all, the two parties did not know each other before.

Then the leader sitting in the main seat patted the microphone and said: "First of all, on behalf of the School of Life Sciences of Jiangzhou University, I welcome the arrival of all colleagues..."

"Papa..."

The leader knew that he was not the protagonist today, and he was very knowledgeable about everything. After delivering the welcome speech, he handed over the microphone to Wang Huiyao.

Wang Huiyao didn't talk too much nonsense, and after a few words, he switched the topic to genetic modification.

"Everyone knows that genetic modification is the separation of deoxyribonucleic acid, commonly known as DNA, from organisms through biotechnology and recombination.

By deleting or adding different chromosomes through various means or technologies, the modified genes can function in the organism to interfere with the genetic characteristics of the organism..."

After Wang Huiyao briefly introduced the genetic modification, he changed the topic to the genetic modification technology of rice aphids he studied.

To be honest, if Zhou Wen hadn't successfully modified the rice aphid gene, Wang Huiyao wouldn't have dared to bring this topic up on the table.

Everyone knows that the actual situation is to sell dog meat, just not to expose you, but don't show off your IQ, it will easily attract people's hatred.

Because not every professor can apply for project funding, many biology professors with poor interpersonal relationships are not doing well.

Then others are eating cabbage there, you are eating meat there, and you are still smacking your mouth, isn’t it just looking for smoke.

"At present, we mainly use heavy metal chemicals to mutate the genes of aphids..."

Speaking of this, Wang Huiyao blushed a little.

Some things are okay for laymen to fool around, but now those sitting in the audience are all peers, and they are all authoritative experts in the industry, so he is really embarrassed to talk about it.

After all, he still has face.

Wang Huiyao covered his mouth and coughed, and then said: "Then I will invite Zhou Wen to give you a wonderful explanation."

"Papa..."

There was warm applause in the large conference room.

Zhou Wen stood up and said a little nervously: "Respected leaders, teachers and students, good morning everyone..."

After the opening speech in Mandarin, Zhou Wen began to explain in English.

Biology is different from other subjects. There are a lot of English words in it, especially genetic engineering, many of which cannot be translated in Chinese at all.

"First of all, please remember a concept, which will help you understand what I'm going to say next.

Genetic conservation is relative rather than absolute, and there are common variations in nature.

The relative stability of genetic information is the molecular basis of species stability, but it does not mean that there is no difference between individuals of the same species..."

Zhou Wen explained his idea of ​​modifying the rice aphid gene.

The main thing is genetic engineering, which is the most cutting-edge knowledge in the world, and then some genetic cryptography is added to make his words sound unfathomable.

The scene was completely silent, and hundreds of experts, professors and students listened to Zhou Wen's explanation without blinking an eye.

However, 80% of the people were in a daze at this moment, and couldn't understand what Zhou Wen was talking about at all.

Among the remaining 20%, although they understood some of the questions and heard some questions in Zhou Wen's words, no one questioned them aloud, and it would not be too late to ask these questions until the questioning session.

After Zhou Wen finished talking about his ideas, he didn't talk about the experiment process.

Because it doesn't matter, everyone is waiting to see the results of the experiment.

Zhou Wen took out the USB flash drive from his pocket and walked to the projector in the corner.

Insert the U disk into the projector and start to explain the PPT.

"Everyone, please look at the big screen. This is a second-generation aphid sample. Look at the wings. Under the action of heavy metal chemicals, a large number of deformed children appeared in them..."

Zhou Wen made a demonstration of the genetic mutation form of aphids.

Except for Wang Huiyao who had seen the detailed experimental data, everyone at the scene was shocked by the pictures on the PPT.

Such complete genetic modification data is very precious, and it has a very positive significance for promoting the discipline of genetic engineering in China.

Of course, the main reason is that the genetic modification was successful.

If it fails, then there will be no defense meeting.

No one in this world cares about losers.

At the end of the slideshow, Zhou Wen released the experimental results.

"I added some biological agents to the original heavy metal chemical drugs, and finally succeeded in reducing the reproduction rate of aphids by more than 30%... Everyone, please watch the big screen."

As a group of data combined with pictures appeared on the screen, there was a noisy sound in the large conference room.

Everyone in the front row of professors was whispering and discussing.

A look of excitement, wonder, or suspicion is on the face.

Except for the professors in the front row, the students in the back were all amazed and admired.

They marveled at Zhou Wen's rich and solid theoretical foundation, those obscure biological formulas and genetic data, even doctoral students found it extremely difficult.

What's more, Zhou Wen is an undergraduate student?

Chen Zhiyuan, Lu Niang, and Liu Yukun who came to listen were really full of curiosity at this moment.

They are all good friends who fart loudly. They can't understand Zhou Wen's English level very well. Like them, they just barely passed the fourth level.

But now look at this easy-to-use full English explanation. This is not at the level of Level 4, it is obviously at the level of TOEFL 119 points.

I was almost afraid that he would be too proud.

"Fuck, when did Lao Zhou secretly learn English? His oral level is really top-notch."

"What's your English proficiency? Just look at the expressions of those professors in front of you, and you will know how rich Lao Zhou's words are."

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…"
