Minister Zhou stared in shock at the approaching Chen Xuan, a top graduate from Tsinghua University and a proud disciple of Professor Yang. He had turned down overseas job offers to return to his homeland, resolving the Xiangnong Group's Tomato Project ten days ahead of schedule and solving the Nong Wang Group's Corn Project in just three days. Such impressive credentials made Minister Zhou regard the young man before him with newfound respect. He had not expected that among the younger generation in the country, there was someone even more capable than Li Xinglan.
Perhaps Chen Xuan could tackle the challenge at hand? With this thought, a hint of excitement flickered across Minister Zhou's face. Surrounded by eager onlookers, Chen Xuan was like a star being admired from all sides. Everyone looked at him with anticipation.
“Xiao Chen, are you willing to take on this important task?” Minister Zhou asked excitedly.
With a casual smile and a shrug, Chen Xuan replied, “Aside from me, Minister Zhou, I doubt you have any other options.”
Minister Zhou raised an eyebrow, a glimmer of joy appearing in his eyes. “Xiao Chen, go ahead and give it your all. Even if it doesn’t succeed in the end, I won’t hold it against you!”
In recent days, Minister Zhou had been under immense pressure. Following Monsanto Group's launch of Eve No. 1, domestic agricultural companies saw their stock prices plummet, and their market share continued to decline sharply. Minister Zhou was overwhelmed; he not only had to reassure domestic agricultural firms but also needed to find ways to delay Monsanto Group's entry into the domestic market. However, this was not a solution to the problem; ultimately, it was necessary to enhance the competitiveness of domestic products.
At this moment, the news of the Nong Wang Group's breakthrough in yield per hectare reached Minister Zhou's ears. Without any hesitation, Minister Zhou immediately brought his team to the Experimental Base, hoping that Professor Li Hong and others could continue their efforts to achieve a breakthrough in yield.
Unfortunately, yield seemed as elusive as a hidden treasure, and Professor Li Hong and his team politely declined, stating that they did not possess such capabilities. Just as Minister Zhou was feeling disappointed, Chen Xuan entered his line of sight.
Upon learning about Chen Xuan's impressive resume, Minister Zhou suddenly placed all his hopes on him! Time was of the essence, and Chen Xuan did not engage in excessive pleasantries; he was ready to commence the full experiment.
However, before doing so, Chen Xuan curiously asked, "Minister Zhou, as far as I know, the Corn Project's achievement of a kilogram yield in just one year is quite astonishing. Do you know what method the Monsanto Group used?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the experimenters present held their breath, eagerly looking at Minister Zhou. Indeed, this question had also greatly puzzled the researchers on site. Even though the Monsanto Group was powerful, the news of achieving a kilogram yield in just one year was still too sensational to believe.
The news was true. Minister Zhou sighed lightly; his expression was grave as he said, "As for the method used by the Monsanto Group to achieve this breakthrough, it is indeed quite extraordinary."
Pausing for a moment under the expectant gazes of everyone present, Minister Zhou slowly continued, "The reason for this significant breakthrough in the Monsanto Group's project is that they leveraged their connections to send high-quality corn seeds to the International Space Station. Following Li Xinglan's instructions, they conducted six months of cultivation there."
Recently, it was brought back to Earth by astronauts.
What?
As soon as Minister Zhou said this, everyone present gasped in shock.
It was through the International Space Station!
Professor Li Hong's eyes lit up as he suddenly realized that Li Xinglan was using radiation from outer space to achieve the goal of mutating the Corn Seed.
What a brilliant idea! What a brilliant idea!
Professor Li Hong was extremely impressed by Li Xinglan's approach.
