Liu Fei's words were like five thunders exploding throughout the conference room, making everyone's eardrums roar. (eng.com_) Liu Fei's words were heart-breaking every word.
After Liu Fei finished speaking, the entire conference room was silent. Everyone looked at He Wenqiang. Everyone was not a fool. Everyone knew that the cadres were eating special food and would definitely not be guinea pigs, but the common people
What about us? Do we want to treat ordinary people as guinea pigs?
The veins on He Wenqiang's forehead almost broke through the skin, and his chest rose and fell. He wanted to refute Liu Fei, but for a while he couldn't find anything to refute.
At this time, Hu Zhijun interrupted and said: "Comrade Liu Fei, please pay attention. This is the Standing Committee, not the Organization Department. You still have to be calm when you speak. We are discussing issues, not quarreling, and it's not about who speaks louder."
Who is right? He Wenqiang did not say that he would treat ordinary people as guinea pigs. I believe that since Secretary He supports the promotion of genetically modified rice in Huzhou City, there must be sufficient evidence to prove that genetically modified rice is safe, so he will try to promote it in Huzhou City.
Promotional. Secretary He, do you think so?"
Hu Zhijun's words suddenly defused Liu Fei's sharp offensive just now. At the same time, he also distanced himself from the matter of genetic modification, but also expressed his support for He Wenqiang. It gave He Wenqiang an idea for digesting Liu Fei's offensive.
After hearing what Hu Zhijun said, He Wenqiang immediately said: "Well, Governor Hu is right. The reason why I want to promote the planting of genetically modified rice in our Huzhou City is because the American MDS offensive has complete evidence to prove their bt911 genetically modified rice variety.
It is safe and has been certified by the US agricultural authority, and this product has been grown abroad for more than ten years and has been tested for more than ten years."
After Liu Fei listened, he said coldly: "Secretary He, I don't know why you believe in the American MDS company, but what I want to tell you is that regardless of whether they have obtained certification from the relevant American departments, they are in China
Is it certified? Do they Americans eat GMOs?”
"I saw what they ate with my own eyes." He Wenqiang retorted.
"Have you seen what they eat with your own eyes?" Liu Fei repeated He Wenqiang's words disdainfully, and then said in a louder voice: "When you were watching magic tricks, you saw with your own eyes that a one-yuan coin could pass through the glass door.
But is that true? No. Hearing is false, seeing may not be true, not to mention that if people say it is genetically modified food, does that mean it is genetically modified food?" After saying this, Liu Fei looked at Zhou Haoyu and said: "Secretary Zhou, I want to give
Let’s take a look at this material. Through this material, I believe everyone can have a deeper understanding of the safety of genetically modified products.”
Zhou Haoyu nodded and said: "Well, you go ahead. We are the Standing Committee, and what we pay attention to is a democracy. Everyone can speak enthusiastically and provide evidence of their own theoretical views. Don't try to convince others with words without evidence. That way
It’s untenable.”
Liu Fei nodded and made a gesture to the staff. The staff immediately walked to Liu Fei and distributed the stack of materials that Liu Fei took out of his handbag to everyone.
Liu Fei held this material in his hand and said: "You can take a look at the first page of this material. Here, I will use facts to explain whether genetically modified products are toxic. From this material, you can see
It has been reported that the American MDS Company has conducted toxicity studies on three types of genetically modified corn, but has refused to disclose the research data and conclusions. Recently, Monsanto was forced to disclose their research results and related data for the first time. In response to this data and research
Analysis of the results showed that the genetically modified corn used in the experiment could cause damage to the liver and kidneys of consumers, but this conclusion was considered unconvincing by some local agencies and some independent toxicologists. However, this is really the case
? The Committee for Research and Information on Genetic Engineering (a French anti-GMO group), after receiving legal assistance from Greenpeace and the Swedish Agricultural Bureau, forced mds to disclose its experimental data. The report stated that the experiment lasted three months and the contents of the experiment
After three types of genetically modified corn were fed to mice for three consecutive months, various parts of the mice's bodies were examined. Two of the corn varieties, n810 and n863, carried bacterial bt proteins that could help the corn resist the invasion of corn borer larvae.
The third type, nk603, can resist the herbicide glyphosate. These three types of corn are currently widely grown in the United States, while n810 is not only grown in the United States but also mainly grown in Europe, especially Spain. However, France
Gilles and Eric from the University of Caen led the team to repeatedly scrutinize, analyze and demonstrate the experimental data, and also came to the conclusion that the mice used in these experiments did show obvious signs of liver and kidney poisoning (
"International Journal of Biological Sciences", Volume 5, Page 706)
Meanwhile, researchers say that in experiments using the three varieties of corn, they found unusual concentrations of hormones and other compounds in the urine and blood of mice fed each corn variety, suggesting that
All three varieties of corn can damage the liver and kidneys. At the end of the experiment, the blood sugar index of female mice fed the n863 corn variety soared, which also led to an increase in triglyceride (a fatty substance) levels. Gill
Both of these signs are precursors to diabetes, Eric said. In addition, mice fed nk603 corn showed further signs of liver disease, he said: "What we showed experimentally was clear.
It's not evidence of toxicity, but a sign that the rats' organs have been poisoned. I'm pretty sure these three types of corn don't contain giant poisons that can cause illness quickly, but who can say that they won't have chronic negative effects on those who eat them?" He said.
We also want to continue this experiment on other species besides mice to prove the impact of genetically modified foods.”
After saying this, Liu Fei paused and continued with a bit of anger in his voice: "Everyone, I don't know if you know that although genetically modified corn is grown on a large scale in the United States, Americans will never eat these genetically modified corns.
Yes, they are using it for industrial purposes or dumping the corn at low prices to other countries to disrupt the agricultural markets of other countries. As for this matter, the American MDS company has a very firm attitude. They refuted and denied these findings and claimed
These data are not enough to prove that eating these types of genetically modified corn will cause harm to consumers. Because the physiques of mice and humans are different. Moreover, they also used powerful public relations power to ask the French Supreme Council of Biotechnology to come out for them. French Biotechnology
The Technical Supreme Council said the study did not provide any new evidence of the toxicity of the three corn species. Other independent toxicologists contacted by New Scientist after being publicized also said that Giles-Eric's research conclusions were excessive.
Emphasizing the minimal impact of these genetically modified corns on consumers. However, despite this, six countries in Europe have stopped the cultivation of n810 genetically modified corns." Speaking of this, Liu Fei turned his attention to He Wenqiang and said coldly: "
Secretary He, do you think that European countries are all fools and don’t know that genetically modified products are resistant to pests and can increase yields?”
He Wenqiang retorted: "Liu Fei, please don't be alarmist, okay? Genetically modified food is not as exaggerated as you say! Isn't the United States now planting genetically modified food on a large scale? And you are talking about genetically modified corn, and what we are talking about now is
Genetically modified rice.”
After Liu Fei listened, his voice became even more angry, and then he laughed angrily and said coldly: "Secretary He, you keep saying that the United States is planting genetically modified food crops on a large scale, but you know that they are planting genetically modified food crops.
What will be done when the time comes?"
"I'm not an American, how do I know?" He Wenqiang said coldly.
Liu Fei smiled faintly and said: "Well, if you don't know, I'm here to tell you. Please turn to the second page and take a look at the information above. I can tell you clearly that genetically modified crops have major safety hazards, even It will lead to ecological disaster. During the planting of genetically modified crops, genes will "drift" under the influence of wind through pollen pollination and other links, contaminating surrounding crops and plants. Variant genes will also be carried to all directions through animals in the area, causing more disasters. A big ecological crisis. For example, the Bt poison protein in genetically modified corn will enter the food chain and reach other plants and crops. Moreover, the damage (genetic pollution) caused by genetically modified crops to the ecological environment has occurred in many places. In 2001, " The "Mexico corn genetic contamination incident", the 2002 "GM corn mixed with U.S. soybeans incident", and the 2006 "GM salmon escape incident" are all examples of the impact of genetic pollution on the ecological environment during the commercial planting of genetically modified crops and the experimentation of genetically modified animals. A typical case of impact. If you have done any research, you will find that no matter whether the US government supports the development and export of genetically modified crops out of commercial interests or strategic considerations, the US government always has a bottom line: strictly prevent genetically modified crops from invading existing crops. Natural agricultural production system and natural food supply system. U.S. law stipulates that there must be a 500-meter-wide isolation zone between two types of farmland where genetically modified and traditional crops are grown. Why does the United States set up a 500-meter isolation zone because it is afraid of genetically modified crops? Pollution incidents occur. However, the situation in foreign countries is different from that in the United States. my country has more people and less land. It is a small-scale agriculture with pin planting. There can be two villages within a radius of 500 meters, with thousands of people living there. If it is changed to 50 meters Isolation is just a paper fence, completely ineffective! Therefore, once the cultivation of genetically modified rice is legalized, it will be impossible to effectively implement the isolation planting law stipulated by any standard distance, making the possibility of genetic contamination almost 100%."
Hearing what Liu Fei said, He Wenqiang's face became even more gloomy.
However, Liu Fei had not finished speaking, but looked at He Wenqiang coldly and said: "Secretary He, if my guess is correct, the American MDS company must have told you that the early cooperation will be at a very low price.
Are seeds provided to farmers at a reasonable price or even for free?”
He Wenqiang did not expect that Liu Fei, who was not involved in the negotiations, could actually learn some things about the negotiations between him and the mds company, so he just snorted coldly and said nothing, but he did not refute either.
Liu Fei smiled coldly and said: "Secretary He, let me tell you a very cruel reality now! American companies are commercial companies. Their ultimate goal is to make money and they are monopolies. Genetically modified food is different from traditional food. Traditional agriculture
You can save seeds from the harvest, but genetically modified seeds must purchase new seeds every year. There are two reasons: first, because genetically modified crops are unstable and will cause degradation; second, monopoly agricultural companies such as the American MDS invented the "
"Terminator technology", this technology can automatically kill the embryos of seeds so that crops cannot be saved. The current reality is that the core technology of genetically modified food is in the hands of the Americans, which puts our chemical food security at great risk.
!According to Greenpeace International’s investigation, among the several genetically modified rice lines that China is applying for commercial planting and under development, none has independent intellectual property rights. On the contrary, all genetically modified lines involve at least 28 foreign
The patents belong to three multinational biotechnology companies: MDS Company of the United States, Bayer Company of Germany and DuPont of the United States. MDS has applied for a total of 548 patented technologies in genetically modified grains, covering almost all aspects of grain production. This means that once China has a large area
To promote genetically modified grains, we have to pay expensive grain seed purchase fees and patent fees to American companies every year. To say the least, even if Chinese scientists obtain genetically modified seeds with full intellectual property rights, it will be difficult to compete with major genetically modified countries such as the United States. By that time,
Once those companies in the United States gain a monopoly advantage, do you think they will continue to provide seeds to our farmers at low prices? At that time, they will significantly increase the price of seeds, increase farmers' cost of growing grain, and even control our country.
The price of agricultural products, and by that time, you have retired, but do you know what kind of harm the project you are promoting will cause? Let me tell you, at that time, you He Wenqiang will be the sinner of our Huzhou City, and even ours
Sinner of the Chinese nation! You keep saying it is for the good of the farmers, but in fact you are pushing the farmers into the fire pit step by step. You are pushing our provincial party committee to the edge of danger step by step. Once this matter gets out of control
, our provincial party committee will all bear serious consequences and responsibilities!"
