Fetching Wheat from Xiangjiang (Part 1)

Friday, June 9, 1995.

Cao Chunyuan and three members of the scientific research team took a passenger plane to Xiangjiang. One of the three members of the scientific research team was Cao Chunyuan's old acquaintance Li Jingming.

When Cao Chunyuan handed over the high-yield corn and high-yield wheat projects to Yanjing Agricultural University, there was a honeymoon period between the two parties.

Later, Cen Shuhong's scientific research team also began to conduct experiments on high-yield corn and high-yield wheat, and the relationship between the two parties gradually became estranged.

Unexpectedly, this time, the two people who have gradually become estranged will have the opportunity to work together again.

Cao Chunyuan is now considered to be half a person in the agricultural scientific research circle. Li Jingming is the senior, so Cao Chunyuan cannot just sit back and ignore it. After getting on the plane, Cao Chunyuan took the initiative to be polite to Li Jingming.

"Professor Li, long time no see!"

"Haha, you haven't seen me for a long time, but I see you often! And, I hear your name mentioned by people around me every day, so it doesn't mean we haven't seen each other for a long time."

"Um?"

She sneered, "Xiangjiang is an international metropolis with talents in all fields, and there are also many experts and scholars from abroad.

For a time, all Cao Chunyuan's good feelings for Li Jingming disappeared, and Li Jingming was directly dragged into the ranks of enemies.

"Xiao Cao, I heard that you have several companies in Xiangjiang?"

In order to prevent Li Jingming from plotting against her, Cao Chunyuan moved out the three top wealthy families in Xiangjiang in one go, just to warn Li Jingming not to have any unwanted thoughts towards her.

Cao Chunyuan didn't know the other person, but from what he said, he should be a teacher at the Agricultural University.

Cao Chunyuan was leaning on the seat, squinting her eyes and sipping orange juice leisurely, when she suddenly heard someone talking to her. When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was Li Jingming who had taken the initiative to come over.

Li Jingming's scientific research group had conflicts with Cen Shuhong's experimental group due to high-yielding corn/wheat and hybrid corn/wheat, which led to the breakdown of the relationship between the two parties.

Cao Chunyuan suspected that the other party had a grudge and had some bad thoughts towards her.

Cao Chunyuan scratched her head in embarrassment. Li Jingming said that she had seen her and she could understand. After all, she often appeared in the news, newspapers and the like, so it was normal for Li Jingming to see her in this.

With these two projects alone, Cao Chunyuan has surpassed the vast majority of domestic agricultural scientific researchers.

"Mr. Cao, you misunderstood. I have no interest in doing business. I just heard that the conditions here in Xiangjiang are much better than those in the mainland. I wonder if there are more scientific researchers here than in the mainland."

I didn't expect that a bastard pseudo-scientific researcher like her could actually gain recognition from a group of professional scientific researchers and have a lot of fans.

Li Jingming smiled and shook his head, "I'm not exaggerating at all. If you have time to go to Agricultural University, you will know if I am exaggerating when you get to the school."

The most important thing for Cao Chunyuan, a freak, is scientific research achievements. As soon as the ‘CY001 high-yield rice’ was released, Cao Chunyuan immediately became famous in the industry.

Hearing this, Cao Chunyuan's pupils shrank for a while. She was keenly aware that something was wrong with Li Jingming. Li Jingming was trying to trick her!

You must know that China has no particularly well-known scientific research results in agricultural scientific research, so in the international arena, few people pay attention to China's agricultural scientific researchers.

Although Cao Chunyuan is nominally a student at Agricultural University, she has never attended a class at Agricultural University. She only knows Li Jingming and Huang Weiguo in Agricultural University.

In this weird atmosphere, the plane took off.

(°ー°〃)?

Not long after that, Cao Chunyuan collaborated with hybrid rice tycoon Pei Shaorong to jointly develop the ‘Huaxing 001 hybrid rice’ with a yield of over 1,000 kilograms per mu.

As soon as Cao Chunyuan finished speaking, the surroundings were silent for an instant, becoming audible.

"Master Yan is an outstanding person with many capable people. I am just an ordinary little character. Everyone thinks too highly of me."

In the agricultural scientific research circle, what matters most is not academic qualifications or connections, but scientific research results.

"Haha, Professor Li, you are joking. You are a senior. How dare I, a junior, steal your limelight?"

Except for Huang Weiguo and Cao Chunyuan, who doesn’t know anyone from the Agricultural University, who can say her name in front of Li Jingming every day?

For the next period of time, everyone was very quiet. It was not until the flight attendant arranged food and drinks for everyone in the middle of the flight that the atmosphere eased slightly.

Li Jingming said this and Cao Chunyuan was even more confused. She really didn't understand that besides being a student of Agricultural University in name, she also had any ties to Agricultural University.

"Mr. Cao, you don't know something. You are very well-known in the Agricultural University student circle. Many freshmen of Agricultural University this year chose to attend Agricultural University because of you."

At this moment, a middle-aged man in the back seat of Li Jingming spoke and helped Cao Chunyuan answer her doubts.

Cao Chunyuan herself has never regarded her as a person in the agricultural scientific research circle, and she does not pay much attention to the agricultural scientific research circle. She only reluctantly regards herself as half a person in the agricultural scientific research circle.

It was the appearance of Cao Chunyuan that broke this inherent impression and let outsiders know that China also has top agricultural scientific research experts.

However, to outsiders, this is not the case.

Huang Weiguo is still continuing his scientific research on the two projects of high-yield wheat and high-yield corn, and is also learning from Pei Shaorong about hybrid farming. He is not with Li Jingming.

Looking at the kind smile on Li Jingming's face, Cao Chunyuan felt a sudden change in her heart. She didn't know why, but she felt that the other person's smile was particularly fake.

Cao Chunyuan was a bit dumbfounded when she learned that she had such a connection with Agricultural University. She was only a scientific researcher in name. In fact, her professional knowledge was extremely lacking, at most, she was at the level of a freshman.

Given her current status in the domestic agricultural research circle, saying, "I am an ordinary little player" would be a slap in everyone's face.

"I have quite a lot of business in Xiangjiang. There are several companies in Xiangjiang. Professor Li, are you interested in doing business?

However, it is a bit exaggerated to have people mention her in Li Jingming's ears every day.

Moreover, he spoke at international press conferences as a project sponsor and became an international agricultural research expert.

I am a good partner with the Cai family in Xiangjiang, and I have also had contact with the He family and the Li family in Xiangjiang. If you want to develop Xiangjiang, I can help you introduce them."

Alarm rose in her heart, she sat upright first, and then placed the orange juice in her hand on the small table.

I know several foreign students, and they all focus on studying academics instead of studying the people around them."

Cao Chunyuan's words were almost a rebuke to Li Jingming by name, but Li Jingming still pretended not to understand and continued to chat with Cao Chunyuan.

At first, Cao Chunyuan wanted to say some polite words to him out of dignity, but later Li Jingming wanted to continue to talk to her. She simply moved the seat back and lowered it to a flat position, then lay down on the chair and pretended to be asleep, ignoring Li Jingming.

.

Even if Li Jingming pretended to be stupid, he still couldn't pull up Cao Chunyuan who was pretending to be asleep. He could only reluctantly give up his little idea and return to his seat honestly.
Chapter completed!
