Chapter 135 Fermentation (additional update)
In the conference room of the Meidu Town Government Office Building.
Village cadres from 31 administrative villages have gathered together.
Chen Xingang didn't say any nonsense, and directly asked people to send copies of the project plan left by Jiang Miao to the more than 100 people present.
"Take a look, this is related to the future development of your village."
The village cadres who received the documents also opened the documents in their hands with various expressions and read them carefully.
Lin Anmin, the head of Xincheng Village, looked at it for a while, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He turned to look at Tian Changgeng, the head of the same village, and whispered: "Old Tian, this project is huge!"
"Hai Lufeng Company is very generous when it makes a move, which is a good thing." Tian Changgeng replied with a smile.
"An increase of six to seven thousand yuan per acre is really good, otherwise the villagers would clamor to dig up the rice fields, which would be very difficult for us." Lin Anmin shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He heard too many discussions and complaints these days, and it was obvious that the villagers were also very jealous of the profits from the fish pond.
The annual income from rice cultivation is 1,100 to 1,200 yuan. Excluding the cost of pesticides, fertilizers, seeds, rice transplants, tractor plowing, and harvesters, you can earn 500 to 600 yuan per acre, not counting your own labor force.
After four or five months of hard work, this amount of money is earned. In addition, the farmland area of each household is very small, making it even less profitable.
After all, the local population of Meidu Town is just over 100,000, and the total farmland area is less than 60,000 acres, with an average area of 0.6 acres per capita. Even if urbanites, migrant workers, and fishermen are excluded, the average farmland area is just over 1 acres per person.
Without cash crops and aquaculture in this small area of farmland, there is no way for villagers to make a fortune through farming.
This is the current agricultural dilemma in various parts of Lingnan.
Village cadres and the town government are in a very awkward position amid this conflict, and it is inevitable that both sides will be blamed.
Chen Pengfei, the head of Xinyu Village, who was sitting next to Lin Anmin, pushed Lin Anmin with his shoulder: "Anmin, Hailufeng Company invested and built a factory in your village, and your brother has become prosperous."
"Haha, developed? I was almost killed by him." Lin Anmin looked terrified when he thought about his cousin Lin Anshun.
"What's wrong?" Chen Pengfei looked surprised.
"Things are a bit complicated and it's not convenient here."
After taking a look at Chen Xingang and others on the stage, Chen Pengfei also understood, and then asked in a low voice: "This time Hailufeng Company has expanded its purchase of so much Egyptian fish, can their feed factory be able to absorb it?"
"It should be possible, right?" Lin Anmin wasn't sure.
While chatting, other people also finished reading one after another, and also started discussing in low voices.
For a time, this conference room became as busy as a vegetable market.
Especially the village cadres in several large rice fields villages are under the greatest pressure.
After all, similar to Xincheng Village and Xinyu Village, they used to rely on the sea for food. In the past 20 or 30 years, a large area of aquaculture area has been added through the construction of ponds around the sea. Villagers in these villages generally have fish ponds, and the space between the rice fields and fish ponds The contradiction is relatively small.
In Weihu Village, Shizhou Village, Nanshan Village, Pengcuoliao, Xinliao Village, Gaozhong Village, Meilian Village, Meixi Xinliao, Jinpanwei Village, etc., the contradiction between cultivated land and fish ponds, rice and cash crops is very big. .
Now that they see Hailufeng Company's "Rice, Bean, Fish and Lotus Root Project", they finally heave a sigh of relief.
As long as the overall income level of villagers can be improved, conflicts will naturally be reduced.
Sima Qian recorded a sentence in "Historical Records·Biography of Guan Yan": "If you have a solid warehouse, you will know the etiquette; if you have enough food and clothing, you will know the honor and disgrace."
Although economic development is not a panacea, economic problems are the core factor leading to conflicts in Shantou, Meizhou, and even the entire eastern Guangdong region. Therefore, economic development has an effective effect on the local area.
From the perspective of geographical location.
What Shanmei City should do is to fully embrace the Pearl River Delta market, become a supplier of agricultural and sideline products in the Pearl River Delta region, and at the same time build a good brand as a tourist city to attract tourists from the Pearl River Delta to come and spend money.
As for other industries, there is indeed no advantage.
After all, Shanmei's labor costs and consumption costs are relatively high, and it has missed the opportunity to develop labor-intensive industries. At the same time, the government continues to tighten environmental protection policies, which is actually not conducive to Shanmei's ability to take over the backward production capacity in the Pearl River Delta.
Previously, the gold and silver jewelry processing industry in Meidu Town and the gem jewelry processing industry in Ketang Town were in ruins due to environmental protection regulations.
Hailufeng's industry seems to be a labor-intensive industry, but it is actually a high-tech-intensive industry.
For example, the Egyptian pond lice breeding industry and the durian planting industry are essentially using technological means to give the industry high profit margins, thereby sustaining huge labor costs.
Only the increase in productivity brought about by science and technology can promote high-quality development in backward areas.
Otherwise, Shantou, Mei and other areas in eastern Guangdong would have no development potential at all.
There is no way to change the fate of taking over the backward production capacity in the Pearl River Delta region. After all, the labor costs, consumption costs, environmental costs and raw material costs in eastern Guangdong cannot compete with Annan. Therefore, in terms of power costs and supporting costs, we can rely on domestic large-scale enterprises. The industrial system is at odds with Annan and other Southeast Asian regions.
But Annan and other Southeast Asian regions will also develop, and their electricity and supporting facilities will also improve.
At this point, the potential of eastern Guangdong is not even as good as southern Jiangxi, western Hunan and other places.
After all, places such as southern Jiangxi and western Hunan can take advantage of the limitations of inland transportation to compete with products from Southeast Asia.
When products from eastern Guangdong are transported to the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta regions, the transportation cost is similar to that of products from Southeast Asia.
Jiang Miao's development of high-end fruits and various agricultural products is indeed to compete with Southeast Asia.
Some people may think that doing so is not conducive to winning over various forces in Southeast Asia.
But from the perspective of geopolitical and economic warfare, Hailufeng can actually be seen as a weapon.
Do not use this weapon.
And whether there is such a weapon.
The two cannot be equated.
For example, the durian industry is currently an important industry in Malaysia, Siam, and Annam. They export millions of tons of durians to the country every year, and the industry value can reach 40 to 50 billion yuan.
There is no large-scale durian industry in the country, so the only way to do this is through import access as a condition to control the situation in Southeast Asia.
But if Hailufeng Company owns large-scale durian plantations, the result will be different.
Do you dare to prick?
Not only do I want to block you on import access, but I can also let you know that we will expand production capacity on a large scale and prepare to reduce the international durian price to the price of cabbage.
This deterrent is much more terrifying than card import access.
The same is true for Hailufeng's new soybean varieties.
I can continue to import, but I must maintain my own production capacity and be prepared to rapidly expand production anytime and anywhere.
In this way, whether it is America, Lucia, or other countries in South America, they will completely lose their voice and bargaining power in the soybean industry.
This may even lead to other global forces losing their say in the food field.
The reason why this situation occurs is because the domestic soybean planting area currently reaches about 150 million acres.
As soon as Hailufeng Company's new soybean varieties are promoted, major domestic agricultural companies and growers will definitely abandon the use of soybean fields in the Northeast Plain and Huanghuaihai Plain, and then invest in soybean planting in the sandy land of Monan.
The 150 million acres of free soybean fields can be invested in the cultivation of food and cash crops.
150 million acres of idle high-quality arable land, which can leverage the market prices of many bulk agricultural products. For example, if sugar cane and sugar beets are planted, the world sugar price can be leveraged; if cotton and flax are planted, the world cotton and linen prices can be leveraged; If corn and wheat are grown, the prices of world food, feed, and alcohol can be leveraged.
This situation will bring about a series of chain reactions.
The world's major bulk agricultural exporters will face the challenge of the world's largest market.
This time, it is no longer a matter of market access, but a matter of counterattack.
At that time, it will not only be a problem of not being able to make money in the world's largest market, but also the global market will also be hit hard.
At present, Hailufeng Company’s new soybean variety has not been planted in the desert land of Monan. The outside world has not responded much to Hailufeng Company’s experimental planting of soybeans in Shanmei. After all, many agricultural companies and agricultural research institutions will cooperate with some farmers to conduct experiments. sexual planting.
Even if it is harvested by then and the yield per mu is more than 300 kilograms, it will not have much impact. After all, there is abundant water and heat in the south. With reasonable management, the soybean yield per mu can reach more than 300 kilograms, especially in experimental fields.
But planting in the sandy land of Monan is a completely different concept.
After all, it is a matter of course that good land produces high yields.
The high-yielding cultivation of abandoned land means that hundreds of millions of acres of cultivated land will be instantly added in the country.
Although only soybeans can be grown, soybeans are not only oil crops, but also feed crops, which can leverage the world's oil and feed markets.
…
When Meidu Town held a meeting to arrange the implementation of the "Rice, Bean, Fish and Lotus Root Project".
Jiang Miao returned to the company headquarters.
He Youwei also started to receive treatment.
In the past few days, he took the time to study the gene target treatment plan developed by He Youwei himself. He also checked her genes and found that this plan did have many problems.
In the laboratory.
Jiang Miao explained to her the difference between the new plan and the old plan, and why such adjustments were needed.
"In your plan, 3500 units of vitamin C per day is not enough."
"Teacher, why is it not enough? I shouldn't have made any calculation mistakes?" He Youwei became a little nervous.
Jiang Miao answered this question calmly: "You have not considered that after the No. 0368 gene target is activated, the body's absorption of vitamin C will decrease by 20% to 30%, so vitamin C must be increased to 4500 units."
After checking her genetic sequence on the computer, He Youwei suddenly realized: "That's it."
"The other ingredient you arranged is the bitter melon extract No. 22. This dosage is also wrong. Although this extract is not very toxic, it will stimulate two other gene targets, No. 8006 and No. 9587. Among them, No. 8006 can cause intestinal The absorption efficiency of fat is reduced, which may cause oily diarrhea; target No. 9587 will inhibit the reabsorption of potassium by the renal tubules, leading to electrolyte imbalance. ”
"Ah!" He Youwei checked the gene targets No. 8006 and No. 9587. After some derivation, it was as Jiang Miao said. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead involuntarily.
No wonder Lin Shuya, the teacher’s wife, had never allowed her to try the medicine herself, even at ultra-low doses.
Now it seems that she is still too far behind and is not qualified to independently develop new drugs.
"The dosage of Bitter Melon No. 22 should be adjusted to 0.025 mg per day. Although it will still reduce the reabsorption of potassium by the renal tubules by about 30%, it can be supplemented by eating bananas and potatoes."
He Youwei's eyes are full of little stars.
"The third question is that your formula does not take into account a very important situation, which is that inhibiting some gene targets related to immunity will cause your allergies to some things to worsen."
"Regarding the gene targets of immunity, some parts cannot be completely suppressed, such as ultraviolet rays. Lupus erythematosus will show an allergic state due to ultraviolet rays, which is an overreaction of the immune system; but if you completely suppress it, the ultraviolet rays will still cause allergies. This time it’s other genes that feel the danger of UV rays.”
He Youwei's expression became more and more serious, and she couldn't help but lament softly: "Life is too complicated, and any slight change will trigger a chain reaction."
Jiang Miao sat down and Shuya rubbed his shoulders. She smiled and said, "Medical treatment is a plan that seeks to balance benefits. Sometimes side effects are unavoidable, but we have to balance the side effects and the efficacy of the medicine. Make a balance to maximize the effectiveness of the medicine while minimizing side effects. ”
"I understand!" He Youwei also nodded.
Jiang Miao continued to explain.
Just the explanation of the new plan took an entire afternoon to give He Youwei a deep understanding of the purpose of adding or subtracting various components. This was equivalent to a teaching bureau.
Starting in the evening, He Youwei's treatment officially began.
The "immune recombination agent" composed of 13 natural or chemical ingredients is made into three pills.
He Youwei took these three pills before going to bed.
The next day, early in the morning.
After she got up, she found that there was no abnormality in her body, but she knew very well that the dose was only half. This was only the initial stimulation and adaptation. It would take half a month of transition before she could take the full dose. After taking the full dose for half a year, she would be fine. After completing various stimulations of gene targets to achieve immune reconstruction, there will be no need to take the full dose, only half the dose.
Of course, if the aunt comes, during the aunt period, the dose of this medicine needs to be adjusted to 0.75, and a drug that regulates estrogen is added to suppress the disruption of the immune system by estrogen.
And lifelong medication is a must.
However, compared with the glucocorticoids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and immunosuppressive drugs she used before, the drugs she is currently taking have very few side effects. There are only two obvious side effects, namely decreased blood potassium concentration and dehydration.
The former can be improved by switching from bananas, potatoes, or simply to low-sodium salt.
The latter is because the reabsorption of water by the renal tubules is affected to a certain extent. Dehydration can be avoided by maintaining the water intake above 2500 ml per day.
These two side effects are nothing compared to the side effects caused by glucocorticoid drugs.
Moreover, after taking the new medicine, He Youwei does not need to be too careful about food restrictions in daily life. At the same time, he does not need to avoid light, and he will not suffer from joint pain and loss of physical strength.
Came to the laboratory again.
Jiang Miao took a look at her situation.
"There are no obvious side effects. You can take it at this dose for the time being."
He Youwei asked: "Teacher, can I bring my brother over?"
"You want to customize medicine for him?"
"Yes, teacher, after I got this disease, I have been receiving strange looks from my classmates since I was a child. I don't want my younger brother to be like me." He Youwei seemed to recall the bad memories from elementary school and junior high school.
Naturally, Jiang Miao would not object to He Youwei's idea of treating his younger brother: "Yes, you can bring him here! With one more observation sample, it will be helpful if you introduce drugs to treat lupus erythematosus in the future."
"Thank you, teacher!" He Youwei quickly thanked her.
As for researching broad-spectrum lupus erythematosus specific drugs, He Youwei knows that this matter is not that simple.
Everyone's genes are different, so enough patient genetic samples must be accumulated before a broad-spectrum drug can be produced.
If He Youwei's version of the special medicine is given directly, it may work, or it may cause serious side effects, or it may be counterproductive.
This is the current limitation of gene target therapy. While it is highly effective, it also has the problem of a narrow audience of patients.
If we follow He Youwei's example and use one-to-one customized special medicines, then 99.9% of patients will not be able to obtain this treatment.
Although Jiang Miao easily came up with a special medicine, the cost behind it was very huge.
Whole-gene sequencing alone costs tens of thousands of yuan, and there is currently no way to reimburse it with medical insurance. What’s even more troublesome is that public hospitals have outsourced this business and have to get it detected by a genetic testing institution. Gene sequencing, can be troublesome.
And having the full genome sequence is just the beginning.
You also need an expert who understands the laws of genes, pharmacology, and nutrition to analyze your genes and customize drugs. Since drugs are customized products, they can only be synthesized in small batches in the laboratory.
At present, the only person who understands the laws of genes and is proficient in pharmacology and nutrition is Jiang Miao. Lin Shuya and He Youwei are both half-empty, and there is no way to independently complete genetic analysis and drug customization.
Calculated, the cost of this set is difficult to estimate.
After all, Jiang Miao cannot treat every lupus patient. He is not the doctor on duty at the hospital, has no medical qualifications, and does not have the time and energy.
Therefore, developing broad-spectrum specific drugs is the key to solving the problem.
This task falls on He Youwei. She has the resources and channels to collect blood samples from domestic lupus erythematosus patients, and she can also conduct relevant clinical trials at Union Medical College Hospital in the future.
Jiang Miao only needs to check things for her.
At the same time, Busan Port in South Korea.
In Xiyuan Group's eel breeding base, the first batch of eel fry finally hatched.
