Chapter 532 Seed Industry Academic Seminar
Wei Xueming is not stupid. He has thought everything through just now. He Huairong wanted to invite him back, but it was just for the current research information in the laboratory. It must be because the five new tomato seeds previously developed by the laboratory are highly recognized by the market. Mao Qing
The Seed Industry Group was unable to obtain the relevant patent authorization, so it had a weird idea and wanted to start directly from the Lime Plant Breeding Laboratory...
If he really changes jobs, it's hard to say whether he will be reused in the future. At least he doesn't like the atmosphere in the laboratory of Maoqing Seed Industry Group. Compared with the atmosphere in the Lime Plant Cultivation Laboratory, he is more positive, cooperative, and candid.
The comfortable atmosphere where people feel like a fish in water is really far removed from it.
A person spends most of his life working. Wouldn't it be sad if he couldn't stay in a comfortable working environment?
What's more, Wei Xueming also knows that his talents are limited. If Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun were not responsible for the most critical technical research and solved many difficulties in the experimental process, the Lime Plant Cultivation Laboratory would not have achieved such great results.
Not to mention several categories of new seeds that are currently being researched.
The most important thing is that Wei Xueming cannot do such an ungrateful thing as betraying Qing Ning Technology and betraying the trust of Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun.
He couldn't forget those gloomy days. The heavy mortgage loan and the extra expenses brought about by the birth of his child almost overwhelmed him, but he couldn't find a suitable new job near home, so he had to prepare
I put aside my professional career for many years and started making money by delivering food.
At this moment, Qingning Technology suddenly acquired the small laboratory, and the contract at that time also "acquired" him who stayed in the laboratory. Of course, it can also be said in other words that Maoqing Seed Industry Group abandoned
They treated him as a useless gift and dumped him to Qing Ning Technology. They also signed a contract memorandum, agreeing that he could join Qing Ning Technology directly without executing the non-competition agreement.
The next day, the small laboratory was renamed "Lime Plant Cultivation Laboratory", and general manager Zhou Shutao came to him in person with the HR director to confirm his wishes and said that he had read his resume and knew that he was familiar with this experiment.
I asked him if he was willing to join Qing Ning Technology. The salary would be twice the original salary, and five insurances and one fund would be provided. Of course, if he didn't want to, he could also choose to leave with half a year's salary.
This is a rare respect. When Maoqing Seed Industry Group abandoned him, it was Qingning Technology that gave him the respect as a scientific researcher and maintained his dignity and dignity.
Wei Xueming almost signed the new contract and non-compete agreement with trembling hands, and from then on he made up his mind to stay and work hard at Qing Ning Technology.
Facts have proved that Wei Xueming's choice is extremely correct. Although the big bosses Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun are too young and are still college students, they are very friendly to others and give him great respect and trust. Every time they have
When research results come out, there will be additional bonuses, and the year-end bonus is even more generous.
What moved Wei Xueming the most was that Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun listed him as the second author in their paper published in "Journal of Xia Guobiology".
You must know that the core part of that paper is all the theory proposed by Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun. He is only responsible for turning the theory into experiments. In the past, he could not even make it to the fourth game!
For a scientific researcher, what is more valuable than such recognition and support?
So when faced with the tempting opportunity to change jobs, Wei Xueming resolutely refused, even if it would lead to an enmity with his cousin with whom he had a good relationship.
On the way back to the laboratory, Wei Xueming suddenly thought, if Maoqing Seed Industry Group cannot open a breakthrough from itself, will it start from other researchers?
Thinking of this, Wei Xueming felt it was necessary to report this matter to Qin Ke.
…
After Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun decided to participate in the annual academic seminar of the Seed Industry Association, they naturally had to make corresponding preparations, such as PPT.
After Qin Ke continued to take time to improve the theory of "computational seed science", it has now taken shape and can be used in seed hybridization experiments.
Ning Qingyun has made a great contribution to the improvement of "computational seed science". Her strong mathematical modeling ability has made Ning Qingyun more and more adept at data analysis, refining, modeling, and deduction. She even successfully passed DNA characteristics
and experimental data, and deduced a breeding plan for type IV corn seeds, which is almost indistinguishable from the actual breeding plan.
In view of this, Qin Ke plans to let Ning Qingyun come on stage to give a report at this annual academic seminar, and he will continue to serve as a backup and play PPT to cooperate.
Instead of giving a report, he can free up his mind to observe the expressions of the participants, judge whether his "computational seed science" will be taken seriously by the industry, how to promote it more appropriately, and also pay attention to whether there are colleagues with tomato seeds.
Maliciously seeking trouble.
Although his initial starting point was to find a reasonable reason for his seed scientific research results, Qin Ke still hopes that his new theory will be recognized and promote seed research and development in the industry.
"Qin Xiaoke, the news said that this year's winter wheat harvest is likely to drop sharply. The temperature is too low to survive above minus 12 degrees Celsius. And this year, in many winter wheat-producing areas, the temperature will drop to minus 20 degrees Celsius." Because it is now.
While conducting research on seeds, Ning Qingyun also paid special attention to the impact of weather on crops.
She lamented: "It's a pity that our new winter wheat has just been successfully cultivated and cannot be launched on the market so soon. If the winter next year is still so cold, I am afraid that only our V-type wheat will survive."
The new wheat seeds studied by the two people are divided into spring wheat and winter wheat. Among them, the cold-resistant V-type winter wheat has outstanding overwintering performance and can withstand ultra-low temperatures of minus 25 degrees Celsius. It is also highly adaptable to growth, resistant to disease, stress, and fertilizer.
, the comprehensive growth performance is extremely excellent, and the yield can exceed that of ordinary varieties of winter wheat by about 20%. The only disadvantage is that it takes about 280 days from seed germination to mature harvest, which is about ten days later than ordinary varieties of winter wheat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, compared to the advantages, such shortcomings are not really shortcomings.
The research on winter wheat also took the longest time. Qin Ke opened a backdoor in winter wheat and gave three plans from the beginning, including the final perfect plan, so that he could successfully develop it in one go.
Qin Ke said with relief: "It's almost there. I saw last month's report that the verification of the seed production method will be completed by the end of January next year. By then we will spend three months applying for patents and three months to prepare for listing. It's just in time."
It’s the planting season in September. But I guess next winter won’t be so cold anymore. This year is just a special case.”
Ning Qingyun thought so, and then calmed down and continued to return to the research project.
However, Qin Ke also encountered a problem when he was conducting "computing seed science", that is, the performance of the server cluster in Qingning Technology's simple computer room could not keep up.
The four top servers seem to be very powerful, but the upgraded Shimmer itself has taken up a lot of resources. Computational Seed Science consumes even more resources when modeling and deducing operations, and can almost fill up the server resources.
This is still an imperfect and relatively rudimentary "Computational Seed Science" mathematical model operation. If we wait for the final huge and complex system to be established, we are afraid that server resources will be exhausted.
It was unrealistic to purchase supercomputer. Qin Ke could only contact Zhou Shutao to step up the construction of the computer room, and asked him to continue to purchase ten servers of the same model, place them in the simple computer room of the Beijing branch, and integrate them into Weiguang's resource management system.
among.
Just after finishing the call with Zhou Shutao, Qin Ke's cell phone rang again. It was a call from Wei Xueming, the head of the laboratory.
After listening to Wei Xueming's report, Qin Ke frowned slightly. He didn't expect that even the people in his own laboratory were being targeted. It was indeed a business society.
However, he still smiled and said warmly: "I understand, do your best, Wei, and I believe you will never regret your choice."
Wei Xueming felt warm in his heart, but still reminded: "Mr. Qin, I'm worried about whether individual scientific researchers..."
"Well, your concerns are very reasonable. In this way, you can summarize and sort out all the reports in the future and send them to me and Qingjun. The current division of labor system for other scientific researchers can only contact the ones they are responsible for.
Part of the data is not a big problem, but you still need to publicize the "confidentiality agreement" and "trade secret crime", and pay more attention to the lives of various scientific researchers. If you have any difficulties, report them in time, and I will ask Zhou
The manager tried his best to help solve the problem.”
Hearing Qin Ke's solution, Wei Xueming breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "I know, I will implement it quickly."
After ending the call, Qin Ke began to think about it.
The system of the Lime Plant Cultivation Laboratory is still very complete, with a clear division of labor. Everyone has their own clear responsibilities and scope of knowledge. They are not allowed to have random access to research data held by others, especially the sharing of data between cross-groups is clearly documented.
forbidden.
Moreover, all computers in the Lime Plant Breeding Laboratory cannot connect to the Internet and can only communicate internally. As for using USB flash drives to copy or burn discs, and taking pictures of computer screens, they are also expressly prohibited.
These are the most standard work rules and discipline requirements of the laboratory, and all scientific researchers have long been accustomed to and silently abide by them.
In addition to these institutional regulations, Weiguang will also secretly monitor each computer to completely prevent data leakage from a technical perspective.
Even the abnormal behavior of secretly using a mobile phone to take pictures of the computer screen will be captured by the surveillance camera, and the low light will quietly record and send a warning message.
So far, no scientific researcher has violated these regulations. After all, the laboratory has high income and a good atmosphere, and no one is so bored that he would choose to challenge the red line and be fired.
"What's wrong?" Ning Qingyun cast an inquiring look.
"It's okay, I can just handle the little things." Qin Ke didn't want Xiaobaicai to be distracted by dealing with these things, so he smiled.
Looking at his smile, Ning Qingyun felt relieved and continued to write with her head down.
Qin Ke judged that the risk of laboratory leaks was very low, but he still contacted Zhou Shutao and asked him to send additional manpower to strengthen the security of the lime plant cultivation laboratory.
If you can't attack it internally, you're afraid someone will attack from the outside. It happens that the company has security personnel, so just increase the security force.
After getting all this done, Qin Ke continued to work with Ning Qingyun to improve "computational seed science".
…
The time soon came, and it happened to be Sunday. The weather was beautiful today. It did not snow, but the temperature was still very low. Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun took the car of assistant Fang Yongtang and came to the annual academic seminar held by the Seed Industry Association.
of hotels.
Most domestic academic seminars will be held in hotel conference rooms, so that meetings and discussions can be held during the day and banquets can be held at night to connect with each other.
The Seed Industry Association is richer than Qin Ke imagined, and even the conference room is stocked with cut fruits and pastries, as well as hot tea and coffee to choose from.
Qin pulled Ning Qingyun into the conference room and found that their water cards were actually placed in the second row, which was considered a very front position.
After the two of them took their seats, there were immediately many concerned looks and whispers from all around.
A middle-aged man in a suit with almost no hair on his forehead came over with a smile and said politely: "Are you Qin Ke and Ning Qingyun? I am Huo Guanting, the secretary-general of the Seed Industry Development Association who contacted you. Welcome you."
Qin Ke stood up and shook hands with him, saying a few polite words without being humble or condescending. He did not show that he was flattered because he was the third person in the association and the dignified secretary-general came in person.
Now Qin Ke does have such qualifications. Although he has not won any awards in the field of biology and has not published any books, he has authorship of one paper in the top domestic core journals, plus five new novel
The hot sale of tomato seeds has given him a halo, not to mention his achievements in mathematics, which are even more dazzling.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! A big shot like Secretary-General Huo Guanting has a lot of things to do. He greeted Qin Ke for a while and then left. As soon as he left, many people came over to talk to Qin Ke.
, Ning Qingyun met, all of them were middle-aged and elderly people in their fifties, basically all well-dressed successful people in suits and leather shoes. The business cards handed over were almost all chairman, general manager, and laboratory director.
.
The purpose of these people was naturally to close the relationship, and they also asked Qin Ke whether they had any new research results, etc. The atmosphere was lively and intimate. Qin Ke also saw the general manager of Maoqing Seed Industry Group, who was facing
Qin Ke just tried to trick him, saying he was young and promising, and had a bright future. If Qin Ke hadn't heard Wei Xueming mention the poaching by Maoqing Seed Industry Group, he would never have thought that such an enthusiastic guy would talk the talk and speak the secret.
disciples.
Of course, not everyone came to praise Qin Ke and the two, and some people stared at them coldly with disdain on their faces.
Soon the time came to half past nine, and the seminar officially began.
Qi Pingyi, the president of the Seed Industry Association, came to the stage to give a speech. He held the microphone, cleared his throat, and said: "First of all, on behalf of the Xiaguo Crop Seed Industry Development Association, I would like to express my gratitude and welcome to everyone! Today we invite
Everyone is here mainly to exchange results in seed research and development, discuss the direction of seed research and development in the new year, and jointly develop and draw a blueprint for the future development of Xia Guo’s seed industry!”
"Food security has always been a key strategy of our country, and it is also a key lifeline related to the national economy and people's livelihood. No matter how science and technology develop, no one can ignore agriculture and food. And seeds, as the basis of food, are even more important. We plant
The industry association has always been committed to promoting seed technology, encouraging scientific and technological inventions, and providing the country with better quality and higher yield crop seeds..."
"Next, let's start today's seminar. The agenda of the meeting is one day. Please speak freely and work together, which will also allow us to brainstorm and finally determine the key support directions of the association."
