The next day, Ye Zhou attended the meeting on that day according to the booking plan. At the meeting, the discussions in three major directions lasted for a full 8 hours. Although everyone had basically reached an agreement in the early stage, in the context of the fluctuations in grain prices and the emergence of these two events of the new generation of gene editors, all application details must be discussed again.

This meeting was seen as a turning point in the style of the official conference. At the meeting, experts and scholars from various fields, market strategy analysts, and official decision-makers fought verbally and faced each other without mercy, just for the result that absolutely cannot be wrong.

All participants knew that if you compromise at this time any factor except truth would lead to the entire country being in an abyss that is difficult to turn around.

A meeting that should have been a report-oriented meeting, with a completely change in style.

"...... So, my point of view is that the laser problem can be put aside first! Agriculture is the foundation of the country, and now we are beginning to face impact. In the next two to three months, international grain merchants will inevitably rely on the current fluctuations in wheat prices to take action against our grain market!"

"According to the news we have received, Amd has started to take action in Yindu. They are absorbing the existing wheat stocks in Yindu market at any cost. This process should last for about a month."

"They hold huge amounts of funds in their hands, and the premium is even 10% higher than the market average!"

"After completing the acquisition of stock wheat and squeezing the potential of Yindu grain market, they will immediately take action on Yindu grain market."

"We don't know what method they will take for the time being, but it's certain that they will definitely use Yindu market as a springboard and then launch an impact on us."

"This kind of operation method has not been done once or twice. In the currency battle that year, they also started with Southeast Asian countries, and then took the power of the victory and attacked us!"

The person who spoke was an expert in the agricultural field. He looked stern. Every time he said something, he would slap the table. A lot of water in the teacup on the table had already spilled out. The attendant next to him had to wipe it again and again.

Hearing his words, a man in military uniform stood up opposite him.

"Old Liu, I know your considerations! But the problem is that what you are talking about is what may happen in the near future. What does it have to do with the application of technology we are discussing now? Far hydrotherapy cannot quench near thirst!"

"You want to do agricultural genetic engineering and good seeds. The return cycle is at least one year. Can you cope with the impact you mentioned within two months?"

"On the contrary, if we are working on lasers now, relying on the technology we already have, it will only take a few months at most - of course, it depends on the technical documents we actually obtain in the future - it will only take a few months at most, and we can achieve a large-scale rollout of laser technology."

"Included in weapons, including anti-missile systems!"

"This is the real deterrence!"

"There is a regime in the gun. As long as the gun is strong, are you still afraid of not having food?"

"Then do you mean to fight?"

The agricultural expert asked back sternly.

"I didn't mean to fight! I'm not a battlefield commander, how can I decide whether to fight? I mean, we must have guns in our hands! I ask you, there's a gun and a bag of bread on the ground now, and you and your enemies are standing face to face, are you choosing a gun or bread??"

"You are changing the concept! We can choose a gun, but the enemy already has a gun! Do you expect us to snatch bread from the other party with one more gun? There is no such a good thing!"

"But at least we have a greater chance of winning! As long as we have a greater chance of winning, they have to consider how to get along with us. We can completely obtain food through pressure!"

"You think of the ugly country too simply. They are still the world's largest military power. They cannot be deterred by a laser anti-missile system!"

"Old Liu, this is not your major. You don't understand the meaning of laser anti-missiles at all!"

"Then you don't understand the current breeding technology. The gene editor has been obtained. As long as we are given one month of study, the first generation of seedlings will be released soon. It will take us less than a year, and it will only take 5 months at most!"

"What about 5 months? Can you immediately put the planting on a large scale? Can you immediately turn the seedlings into food?"

"You're fucking fart! Even if you get a laser for you, can you create an anti-missile system immediately?"

"I just can! A whole set of things doesn't work, at least a few independent systems are OK. What about you? Do you?"

"Then I can still promote the experimental field!"

"You're just promoting it. It's June now. When you get the seedlings out, the sowing will be over long ago. What are you going to promote it?"

"Bah, you forgot about the sea blue, right?"

.........

Seeing that the two of them were arguing about the gunpowder became more and more serious, the man in Zhongshan dressed in the middle quickly raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.

After a moment of pause, he spoke:

"The reasons you both said are correct, but it is impossible to make a comeback if you are so quarrel, because neither of you can convince anyone."

"I'll give you a simple summary."

"Food is the most important thing, there is no doubt about this, but in the short term, we cannot significantly increase grain production through technical means and completely change the world's food pattern---I mean in this short term within half a year."

"Laser is less important than food, and it is much lower, but we can apply it in the short term and achieve results."

"Your dispute is mainly about this point, right?"

The two people who had argued before nodded together, so the man in Zhongshan dressed up continued:

"Then the problem we want to solve is very clear now, and I summarize it into two assumptions."

"First, if we first do laser technology application, relying on our current preparations, can we deal with the upcoming price war between international grain traders?"

"Second, if we do agricultural genetic engineering first, can we curb the military pressure that the other party may increase with our current military strength?"

"As long as one of these two problems can be solved, our direction can be determined."

"I currently have reservations about both issues. In this area, I want to hear Suiren's opinion first."

As he said that, he turned his gaze to the screen, where there was only darkness, but everyone knew that this screen without any image display represents the country's strongest voice in the field of science and technology.

The conference room suddenly became quiet, and everyone was looking forward to the answer from "Suiren".

Ye Zhou flipped the record in front of him, and asked after a moment of silence:

"I want to confirm first, can we carry out two projects at the same time? Can resources and funds support it?"

"No. There are too many projects underway recently, and our financial pressure has almost reached its limit. Of course, we still have some reserve force, but I do not recommend using reserve force directly on these two projects--not reaching the level of importance we preset."

Hearing this, Ye Zhou nodded silently.

The man’s statement is correct. For a country, development is a necessary matter, but how to develop and at what pace is the big problem.

If all financial resources are squeezed out at any cost, explosive progress may be made in a short period of time, but in the long run, the damage to the entire economic environment will be almost irreversible.

This is a difficult choice and it is also the most terrifying nightmare for patients with choice phobia.

At this moment, he truly felt the pressure faced by a decision maker.

Because every decision you make does not affect you, not only the people around you, but the entire country, and even the entire world.

Under such pressure, we can make the right decision every time, and we must not do a great man.

Ye Zhou sighed quietly and said:

"From the information I have, genetic engineering, especially agricultural genetic engineering, should consume relatively little resources during the application process. Can you give me a rough figure? How much does this project cost to achieve results in a short period of time?"

"The human resources required for these two projects do not overlap, so theoretically, as long as the funding problem is solved, there are no other obstacles to compatibility between the two projects."

Hearing his words, a middle-aged man in Zhongshan dressed up answered:

"We initially estimate that it will take about 4.6 billion. However, the problem is here. We cannot provide the 4.6 billion yuan of funds by releasing money, because once this money enters the market, it will have a whole-body impact on the entire economy."

"We can only mobilize from the original pool and can't pour water into the pool."

"What if this pool could have provided this 46 billion yuan of funds?"

Ye Zhou's eyes lit up, and he seemed to see a new idea.

Just like the idea of ​​founding the General Technical Office, official resources are always limited. If private resources can be introduced, it will form an important supplement to this project.

"You mean to let private capital get involved in the food field? This is impossible. We do not allow such high-risk things to happen in the fundamental areas of such countries."

Ye Zhou shook his head and replied:

"Of course not."

"But, I mean not to directly invest private capital in the food field, but to replace resources."

As soon as he said that, the experienced decision makers in the venue immediately understood what he meant.

Yes, in a country, all walks of life are like empty buckets, and the official resources are like a pond. The water in the pond is limited. Which bucket to be distributed to each bucket needs to be carefully calculated.

The problem they are facing now is that the water in the pond is almost exhausted, but new buckets are still emerging.

Generally, there are only two solutions, either filling water into the pond or introducing a new pond.

This new pond is what Ye Zhou called private capital.

However, some buckets cannot be filled with water from private capital, but there must be water in this bucket. So what can we do?

The answer is obvious.

From the buckets that have been filled with water, divide the water to the new buckets, and then use the water from private capital to fill the gaps in these buckets!

There are actually many such buckets that have already been filled with water.

Travel, liquor, interactive entertainment, real estate, commercial department stores...

Most of these buckets can actually be filled with private capital, but in the early stage, they did not do so due to factors such as returns, returns, and market management.

If we follow the idea of ​​"Suiren"...

Then, this will be a comprehensive resource optimization configuration, and there is only one direction for optimization:

Focus all resources and strength on real basic areas that are truly closely related to national life!

The man in Zhongshan dress nodded solemnly and then spoke:

“This is a big problem and a good problem.”

"Today's meeting ends here and the conclusion is out."

"Reallocate resources and concentrate on doing big things."

"Whether it is genetic engineering, laser technology, or other key technologies that are about to emerge, we all want."
