The passionate years starting from the college entrance examination

At the end of December 1961, Zhenhua Research Institute in Beijing.

In the director's office, Qiu Zongyue was still very excited at this time.

Dancing and comparing with Chen Guohua.

Mainly because he had a good experience with a drone in the aerospace engine laboratory just now.

For an old man, he was the first leader to experience a high-tech product like a drone, so of course he was very excited.

When holding the remote control in his hand, Qiu Zongyue felt that it was more important for him to take the lead than to command thousands of troops.

"Guohua, you haven't answered my question just yet. Can it be mass-produced now?"

After the excitement, Qiu Zongyue slowly calmed down and looked at Chen Guohua with fiery eyes, as if he was going to call the 985 factory next moment.

I can't wait to mass-produce it and equip the troops immediately.

Chen Guohua shook his head and said:

"Leader, if the drone needs to be mass-produced, it needs to be improved. The drone we have developed so far is just the most common drone."

"The noise is a bit loud and needs to be improved. Otherwise, it won't work as a reconnaissance aircraft."

"Moreover, even when used as a reconnaissance aircraft, its battery life can only last forty-five minutes."

"As for the battery life issue, not only is the battery not good, it is too heavy, but the weight and load capacity of the drone are also worrying."

"Therefore, it is definitely too early to talk about mass production."

Hearing Chen Guohua's words, Qiu Zongyue felt like a basin of cold water was poured down on his head.

I felt cold from head to toe, and I couldn't be excited anymore.

Ugh!

"By the way, leader, why did you come to see me?"

The topic was changed, Qiu Zongyue nodded and told the story about China Resources Company.

"Guohua, according to Xiaoliu's guess, it should be that it is difficult to get lithography machines out of North America, so IBM and Cray have shown such goodwill."

"So, do you think we should bring out the latest chip?"

After hearing Qiu Zongyue's words, Chen Guohua pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said:

"Leader, I think it's still too early."

"Cray and IBM may just be greedy for money. They probably haven't seriously engaged in research and development. We still have to wait for companies like Fairchild Semiconductor to come up with lithography machines before we can come up with them." New chip products”

"However, I think that next month, that is, in January, we can appropriately reduce the price of five-micron transistors."

Since the first half of this year, the prices of 5-micron transistor and 500-transistor chips have not been reduced.

In other words, they have never dealt with these matters at all.

The truth is, no one buys these expensive, outdated products anymore.

Only the most advanced technological products will people be willing to pay for them.

So wait until next month to reduce the price of five-micron transistors, maybe there will be any surprises.

Hearing Chen Guohua's words, Qiu Zongyue couldn't help but nodded.

Whether it is IBM or Cray, they are capital enterprises, and all their actions must be for profit.

From here, it can be further proved that Chen Guohua priced the Huayue calculator accurately.

After all, if the price is not US$899 per unit, which is such a 'low' price, Clay Company will not have much profit margin at all.

Others cannot make money. It is naturally much more difficult for China Resources alone to sell these products.

After talking about this matter, Qiu Zongyue reminded Chen Guohua again:

"The celebration banquet will be in two days, and you can't be absent then."

Hearing this, the latter immediately smiled and nodded.

The so-called celebration banquet is naturally the celebration banquet for the successful explosion of the atomic bomb.

That night, Chen Guohua returned home by car, where a hot meal was already prepared.

Tonight is New Year's Eve, and tomorrow is New Year's Day.

Time passed so quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, it was 1962.

"father!"

In the living room, Chen Wei, who was in his grandfather's arms, saw his father and immediately called him dad.

This made Chen Guohua extremely happy.

The whole family was also shocked. Isn't this little guy too smart?

"Okay, okay, daddy is here. Come let daddy hug you."

Seeing Chen Guohua pick up the little guy, Yun Wanshang said with a cheerful smile:

"Since Sisi was born, this is the first time you went home and hugged Weiwei first."

Hu Pinggu, Yu Moli, Gan Rushuang and others immediately nodded when they heard this.

Indeed, it is obvious to everyone that Chen Guohua dotes on his daughter Chen Si.

Although there is no so-called preference for boys over girls in the old Chen family, Chen Guohua's behavior is really rare.

Many gay men have traditional ideas, and even many gay women are like this. They all prefer boys more.

Before Chen Guohua could respond, Chen Si suddenly flattened his mouth and looked about to cry.

Because the little guy Chen Si also saw her father just now. Although she can't call people yet, she can already recognize them.

She was originally ready for her father to hug her, but instead her father went to hug her brother.

So the little guy suddenly felt extremely aggrieved.

"Oh, Sisi is about to cry. Guohua, why don't you hug her quickly?"

At this time, Hu Pinggu, who was holding the little guy, couldn't help but say.

But the whole family burst out laughing, saying that the two siblings were really smart, and they knew how to compete for favor at such a young age.

Chen Guohua happily picked up the little guy Chen Si with his other hand, and immediately he had two children in his arms.

He has a lot of experience in holding children.

Not only because he got married and had children in his previous life, but also because before he got married, he was a child king and worked as an intern for a long time.

In his previous life, his family was a big family, and his father had eight brothers and sisters.

Having many brothers and sisters means that Chen Guohua also has many cousins.

Because of this, he had many opportunities to practice holding and raising children.

So of course he has a lot of experience.

After hugging the child, dinner started.

The meal tonight is very rich, and it is also a fusion of northern and southern cuisine, including rice and steamed buns.

Yes, the food eaten at home is refined grains, not coarse grains.

After the lively dinner, everyone's smiles quickly faded with the arrival of a piece of news.

A phone call came from the General Hospital. Chen Lihua said that Gui Zhiting's grandmother was gone.

It was almost sixty-one years ago, but his grandmother still couldn't hold on and passed away without being able to see her grandson give birth to a little grandson.

Although Gui Zhiting's grandmother has little relationship with the old Chen family, Chen Lihua is married to Gui Zhiting after all, so she still has to go and see her.

Father and son Lao Chen and Chen Guohua went to the General Hospital in person to see if there was anything they could do to help.

After Gui Zhiting's grandmother left, he no longer had any relatives in this world.

Therefore, besides Chen Lihua, the only ones who can help him deal with his funeral affairs are the old Chen family.

As for handling funeral affairs, Lao Chen is more experienced.

There was no way, Chen Gonglu not only helped his old comrades deal with their funerals, but also handled the funeral arrangements for his five children.

Ugh!

Today is New Year's Eve and tomorrow is New Year's Day. It was originally a happy day, but it turned out to be like this.

Here at the General Hospital, Gui Zhiting cried so hard that her eyes were red and swollen.

Chen Lihua coaxed him like a child.

Seeing this scene, Chen Guohua felt uncomfortable.

There are too many sad stories in this era.

In the blink of an eye, the next day, New Year's Day came.

Everything else was relatively festive, but Guizhiting's home was filled with sadness.

His grandmother's funeral was handled in a low-key manner, and it had to be handled as quickly as possible.

People cannot be resurrected after death, not to mention that his grandma left here at the General Hospital.

Even the doctors at the General Hospital were powerless, so what could Gui Zhiting do?

Therefore, Gui Zhiting was dealing with this matter throughout the New Year's Day holiday.

"Thank you, director!"

Gui Zhiting knelt down and bowed to Chen Guohua, but the latter did not accept the courtesy.

Although he deserves this gift, the other person is his seventh sister's man after all, so this is definitely inappropriate.

"Hey, don't be too sad. Your grandma definitely doesn't like how you are now."

Chen Guohua also knew that what he said was useless, but he still had to comfort the other party.

Turning around, Chen Guohua at Zhenhua Research Institute had calmed down and got into work.

It is now January 2, 1962, and there will be no food shortage like before.

Compared with the original time and space, many things in this time and space are not so scarce.

"The wings flapped by my Amazon butterfly have successfully made Heru retire early."

"The debt is about to be paid off, and the atomic bomb has been released. Although the next task is still very heavy, it is relatively easy."

Chen Guohua was thinking this when he went to get food at noon, but when he came to the entrance of the cafeteria and was about to get food, he saw Ma Mingwei and Yin Menglun arguing about something.

Suddenly, he stopped and walked towards Ma Mingwei and the two of them instead of entering the cafeteria.

"Lao Ma, Lao Yin, what are you arguing about?"

"Director, you are here just in time. That's it. Over at our pig pen, a pig died today."

Yin Menglun quickly explained.

It was not unusual for a big fat pig to die, but it turned out that the pig died of the plague. Of course, it could not be eaten and had to be buried.

In addition, other pigs must also be checked, isolated and buried when needed.

It's just that Ma Mingwei felt sorry for the pork, so he couldn't bear it and didn't want to bury it.

At this point, the two started arguing.

"Swine fever?"

When Chen Guohua heard this, his expression suddenly changed.

"Come on, take me to see you immediately."

The two words "swine fever" are no joke. In the history of the original time and space, these two words accompanied Chen Guohua for almost the first half of his life.

In his previous life, when Chen Guohua was a child, his family conditions could be described as a family with four walls.

Fortunately, his parents still worked hard and supported their family of five by raising pigs, cattle, and selling vegetables.

Chen Guohua has the most say in the matter of raising pigs.

He was only about ten years old at that time, and he often went to the vegetable field to pick those Laobangzi vegetable leaves, or to cut pig grass.

In the rural areas of the south, there is not much shortage of such pigweed and wild vegetables.

But they couldn't stand the competition from fellow villagers, and because of this, they often got into fights with each other over cutting pigweed.

At that time, there were many people in the village and it was very lively.

Quarrels and fights are commonplace.

Especially in drought years, conflicts often arise over competition for water resources.

There are paddy fields in the south, and naturally there are also dry fields.

These dry fields are all on higher ground, and they were originally wasteland that was only reclaimed after the 1967s.

To be honest, most people would look down on such a field.

But the Chen Guohua family is very interested in it, and there are many such fields.

In order to increase their income, his parents would climb up even 200-meter-high mountains to cultivate land and plant some bamboo.

Bamboo will grow bamboo shoots after May and June every year, which is also a dish and an income.

When Chen Guohua was very young, cutting pig grass, feeding pigs, raising cattle, etc., these took up a large part of his childhood memories.

Likewise, and for this reason, the word swine fever is almost his nightmare.

It happened to be the summer when Chen Guohua was admitted to junior high school. A swine fever attack hit his family. All eight pigs that were ready for slaughter in more than a month died.

The whole family lived with these eight pigs in mind, and all of them died suddenly, and they were still unable to eat.

To this day, Chen Guohua still remembers that his father was sitting next to the pig pen and was silent for several days.

His mother cried for several days.

Chen Guohua can remember this scene for a long time.

Later, Chen Guohua went to junior high school because his parents borrowed the tuition fees.

The price of pork has never been expensive, but the price of tuition fees is rising every year.

Moreover, Chen Guohua was one of three brothers at that time, less than three years apart from each other.

This means that the students will study at the same time, and the tuition fees will not differ much.

So at that time, it was really, really difficult.

Later, the money for high school and college was earned by his parents raising pigs and selling mushrooms. Otherwise, Chen Guohua would not be able to go to college.

Ma Mingwei and Yin Menglun followed Chen Guohua to the pig house.

Standing in front of the pig pen, Chen Guohua glanced at the six big fat pigs and frowned.

You can tell by looking at their mental state that these six pigs are not very good.

The air was filled with the stench of pig feces, but Chen Guohua did not feel any discomfort.

Because he was already used to smelling like this in his previous life. When he was a child, he had to come into contact with the pig house and clean it almost every day.

You know, those pigs that have been raised for several months, especially when they are about to be slaughtered, eat a lot and poop a lot.

If the pig excrement is not cleaned up in time, they will roll on it within a few hours, and then they will become a pig covered in pig excrement.

At this time, Chen Guohua also noticed the pig shit in the pig house. Just looking at the shape, he couldn't tell anything.

"Lao Ma, go and call Dr. Bei, Xiao Gao and the others over."

Upon hearing Chen Guohua's instructions, Ma Mingwei suddenly became excited and couldn't help but said in surprise:

"Director, why are you calling them? They are doctors. Is it possible that they can still treat these pigs?"

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. Don't delay things."

Chen Guohua glared at the other party. Really, when was it? Why are you still asking questions?

When Ma Mingwei heard this, he immediately shrank his neck and ran away quickly.

Soon, Bei Junjian, Yao Lin, Gao Xiaodan, Sun Qihe and Zhao Fuou, who came over after hearing the news, couldn't help but frown when they saw Chen Guohua standing at the door of the pig house.

"Director Chen, why did you call us over?"

After glancing at Bei Junjian and others, Chen Guohua pointed at the six pigs in the pig house and said:

"I would like to ask you a few medical questions. All the pigs in front of you have swine fever. According to my observation, the six pigs in front of you are shivering and afraid of the cold, and they are also anorexic."

There was still a lot of pig food in the pig trough, and it probably hadn't been touched much.

According to the greedy nature of pigs, this is almost impossible to happen.

Therefore, if you are anorexic and afraid of cold, you may have a high fever.

In this case, these pigs should be treated in a targeted manner.

To be honest, swine fever is not terrible. What is terrible is that there are no corresponding measures and it was not discovered in time, resulting in large-scale lesions and heavy losses.

The six pigs in front of me can still be saved.

That's why Chen Guohua thought of asking Bei Junjian and others to come over and ask for their opinions.

Chen Guohua himself learned half-baked Chinese medicine from Ji Wenmei when he was studying with Yu Moli.

In addition, he himself also searched a lot about the diagnosis and treatment of swine fever in the biological hard drive of his brain.

But the most important thing is to take the right medicine, so you should ask a professional.

Before Bei Junjian and the others could speak, Qiu Zongyue, Xue Yajun and Ge Shouzhi came over behind them.

"Guohua, what's wrong?"

It was meal time, but Chen Guohua was not in the cafeteria. Instead, he came to the pig house. Could there be something seriously wrong?

Zhenhua Research Institute has a pig house, and these pigs are big fat pigs transported from the Beijing Railway Station or other places.

Just because Chen Guohua prefers to eat fresh pork, the pigs shipped to Zhenhua Research Institute are all live pigs, not frozen meat.

"Boss, these pigs all have swine fever, and I'm trying to find a way to treat them."

Hearing Chen Guohua's words, Qiu Zongyue raised his eyebrows in surprise and said:

"Isn't it just swine fever? Did you call them all over?"

Chen Guohua suddenly said seriously:

"Leader, this is not just a problem of swine fever. Once it breaks out, it will be more terrifying than drought."

"If we don't pay attention to this situation in time, it will be just like in ancient times."

"Swine fever has many different symptoms, such as high fever, chills, not eating, eye mucus, small red spots on the skin, persistence of acupressure, constipation, diarrhea, etc."

"And accompanied by such symptoms, it may lead to sudden death."

"One pig died just now. If we are not careful, these six pigs may not survive for a few days." "Leader, think about it, how big a blow it will have to us if it spreads?"

Following Chen Guohua's words, everyone present broke out in a cold sweat.

Qiu Zongyue's pupils shook, and he looked a little surprised, "It shouldn't be swine fever, right?"

"I also hope it's not swine fever." Chen Guohua said helplessly.

Who hopes?

Next, Bei Junjian and the other five doctors, although they were very disgusted, Chen Guohua and Qiu Zongyue stood aside, and they had to enter the pig pen to diagnose and treat the pigs in person.

Although treating people and treating pigs are completely different things.

But it’s still treatment after all.

However, nowadays, there are very, very few medicines for animals.

Chen Guohua had no choice but to arrange for people to disinfect and isolate the pigs in the pig house.

As for medication, Bei Junjian and others proposed some antipyretic Chinese medicines for treating people.

Since it is traditional Chinese medicine, Chen Guohua can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

At the same time, he planned to summon Bei Junjian and other doctors and researchers in the afternoon to develop an antibiotic immediately.

If he wants to develop antibiotics, he doesn't know if they can be developed quickly, so for now, he can only use traditional Chinese medicine first.

"Director, what if they don't eat?"

When Ma Mingwei heard that the pigs were being fed Chinese medicine, he was stunned and asked.

"Don't you, the security department, usually have nowhere to use your strength? Find a few big men to hold them down, open their mouths, give me a water pipe, and pour Chinese medicine into it."

Chen Guohua's words immediately made Ma Mingwei salute quickly and then leave as if running away.

Because he knew very well that Chen Guohua was probably angry when he said this.

That's right, how did he ask such a stupid question?

In the canteen, after the pig matter was taken care of, Chen Guohua had time to eat.

Qiu Zongyue came here today not to remind him about attending the celebration banquet in the evening, but over on Hong Kong Island, Clay Company actually ordered 10,000 five-micron transistors.

A few days ago, Chen Guohua suggested that after New Year's Day, the price of five-micron transistors will begin to drop.

Unexpectedly, President Raymond of Cray Company was so generous that he purchased 10,000 transistors.

Previously, the price of five-micron transistors was US$500 each, with a minimum order of 10,000 units.

Today’s price has plummeted to one hundred dollars a piece, and the minimum order is still 10,000 pieces.

Even so, Raymond from Cray Company is really good at life, and he really wants to establish a good cooperative relationship with China Resources Company.

"By the way, the golden ball they sent has arrived in the capital. Do you want to take a look?"

After hearing Qiu Zongyue's words, Chen Guohua shook his head and said:

"It's just gold, what's so good about it?"

If he wanted gold, he could easily get a lot of it.

However, Lao Qiu's words reminded him that in this era, the means of gold mining were very scarce in the mainland.

In other words, the efficiency of gold mining is very low, and the gold reserves are very low. At the same time, there are very few gold mines known.

But in today's era, although the price of gold is not high, it is very stable and is equivalent to a U.S. sword.

After World War II, North America led several countries such as Great Britain and Gallic Chicken to establish the Bretonson System.

As long as this system does not collapse, the U.S. dollar and gold will always be equal.

That is, one ounce of gold is equal to thirty-five dollars.

From this equation, it seems that gold is also quite cheap.

But you must understand that the purchasing power of today’s US dollars is very terrifying.

In 1962, Hollywood star Taylor took over the filming of "Cleopatra", and the salary at that time was one million US dollars.

The actual purchasing power of one million US dollars would be multiplied by 140 to 150 in future generations.

In Green Book, Tony's salary is one hundred and twenty-five dollars a week.

In North America in 1962, the per capita annual income was US$3,280.

Calculated based on twelve months, the average monthly income is about 273 yuan and 30 cents.

Shelly's salary for Tony was one hundred and twenty-five dollars, including food, accommodation and possible expenses, which worked out to about five hundred and fifty dollars a month.

This was nearly twice the national income per capita in North America at the time.

One dollar can buy two drive-in movie tickets, or ten bags of pretzels, or four Express Meals.

This is the purchasing power of the dollar in this era and the wages of most people.

In other words, a fixed exchange rate of thirty-five dollars per ounce of gold is actually not too bad.

Of course, as time goes by, the purchasing power of the US dollar will definitely decline significantly from 1946 to 1970.

And this is one of the reasons why the Bretton Woods system collapsed in the 1970s.

However, for now, the fixed exchange rate between gold and the US dollar means that once the mainland has more gold, it means that it can take advantage of it.

why?

If the exchange rate remains unchanged, the purchasing power of the US dollar will not drop significantly in a short period of time.

Once the mainland has hundreds or even thousands of tons of gold, wouldn't it be possible to purchase more equipment, raw materials and other materials?

"Guohua, what's wrong with you? There are flowers on my face?"

Seeing Chen Guohua staring at him all the time, Qiu Zongyue couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, even though he was somewhat used to Chen Guohua's behavior.

Chen Guohua came back to his senses and asked mysteriously:

"Leader, are you interested in investing in a project?"

"What project? Tell us about it first."

Qiu Zongyue became very cautious. He was afraid that Chen Guohua would dig a hole for him again and let him jump into it.

Because it's obvious that Chen Guohua dug it several times, but Qiu Zongyue jumped in every time.

Mainly the projects proposed by Chen Guohua require a lot of investment every time.

But now, there is not much money at all.

It is a place where money is needed everywhere. If too much is given to Zhenhua Research Institute, there will inevitably be less money in other places.

"Leader, this is a way of making money. Although it requires a large investment, it is..."

Upon hearing the words "big investment", Qiu Zongyue directly reached out to stop Chen Guohua and interrupted:

"Stop it, stop it, Guohua, you want to trick me again, right?"

"Before dinner, you also said that you would develop antibiotics to treat animals. I guess it will cost a lot of money, right?"

"Now you are talking to me about some money-to-money project, huh, do you think I am a three-year-old child?"

When Chen Guohua heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked:

"Boss, are you sure you don't want to listen?"

"Don't listen, don't listen, you bastard is chanting sutras!"

Qiu Zongyue shook his head, just not wanting to listen to Chen Guohua's words.

The latter couldn't help but sigh with disappointment:

"Oh, forget it if you don't listen. I originally wanted to tell you that I have a way to find more gold mines."

"Since the leader doesn't want to hear anything, forget it and just pretend I didn't say it."

As soon as these words came out, Qiu Zongyue's eyes suddenly widened and he immediately asked:

"Wait a minute, Guohua, what did you just say? Do you have a way to find more gold mines?"

What is a gold mine?

That’s money!

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, ordinary people have not been able to see gold.

Why?

Because the country was short of money, all the gold on the market was recycled and private circulation was not allowed.

In the original history of time and space, in 1959, there were still four million ounces of gold reserves.

As a result, by 1962, gold reserves had dropped to 3 million ounces.

In this time and space, due to the relationship between Zhenhua Research Institute, the grain, pork, etc. purchased from abroad did not consume these gold reserves.

But even so, that's only four million ounces.

Converted into U.S. dollars, it’s only 140 million U.S. dollars.

From this we can also roughly know that the mainland during this period was indeed very poor, very poor.

If more gold mines can be known, it means more gold can be mined.

This is definitely very good news.

Therefore, Qiu Zongyue's eyes were flashing blue at this time, staring at Chen Guohua, hoping that the latter was not talking nonsense, but really knew that there were many gold mines.

"Leader, aren't you saying you won't listen?"

Chen Guohua blinked, but he couldn't hide the smile at the corner of his mouth.

Qiu Zongyue suddenly said angrily:

"Stop joking with me. I'm too old to hear such jokes. Come on, tell me. Do you know where there are gold mines?"

"Of course I know, but please listen carefully, leader, this time our Zhenhua Research Institute needs an investment of 10 million!"

As soon as these words came out, Qiu Zongyue's eyes widened even more.

Good guy, the lion really opens his mouth.

In the past 1961, Zhenhua Research Institute spent nearly 30 million yuan.

It is still January of 1962, and Chen Guohua asks for 10 million yuan.

Is this too much?

If Qiu Zongyue hadn't known that Chen Guohua was not greedy for money, he would have doubted whether the latter had ulterior motives.

In fact, Zhenhua Research Institute’s financial personnel and financial statements require audits by review agencies from other military units almost every month.

This is not a routine audit, just go through the motions.

That is a very serious matter, and almost every expenditure item requires a more detailed explanation.

When it comes to purchasing expenditures on computers, laboratory equipment, etc., it is relatively simple.

However, expenditures related to personnel salaries, canteen purchases, rewards, etc. are relatively strict.

Therefore, Chen Guohua is not afraid of these at all.

To be honest, if he really needs to make money, Chen Guohua can just go to Hong Kong Island. His money-making ability will definitely beat Liu Guanzhong.

But, making money in this era?

Even if they join North America, it will just be meat on the table.

Chen Guohua has no interest in such things.

The old emperor Qianlong lived long enough. He was the emperor for sixty years, which was only one year less than his grandfather Kangxi. However, Qianlong also served as the emperor for three years.

He lived a lifetime of glory and wealth, visited the south of the Yangtze River six times, and traveled all over the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

But so what?

Isn’t the bed on which you sleep no different from that of ordinary people?

It's just that Qianlong's bed was a dragon bed made of precious wood.

The room is not big, not much different from an ordinary person's room.

Because the room is too big, it is very cold in winter.

Even after Qianlong's death, it was stolen by Sun Dianying. The 'shroud' was quite precious.

What is the Kesi dharani quilt? This thing is a special fabric used in funeral ceremonies by the Qing Dynasty royal family or some ministers who were honored by the court.

Anyway, it is a very precious cultural relic.

As for such an awesome historical figure like Qianlong, he was actually nothing more than a handful of dirt when he got old.

It's no different from ordinary people.

For Chen Guohua, material life is enough, and he doesn't need too much.

The same goes for money, just enough is enough, not too much.

What's more, if he wanted a private jet in this life, Chen Guohua could build it himself.

And he was able to build more planes.

Of course, he cares more about his life, so whether it’s an airplane or a train, he won’t take it if he can afford it.

When the technology matures, Chen Guohua will build an airplane by himself and then take a trip to the motherland.

If that doesn't work, then mention the train speed and take the improved train to see other places.

As for now, it's better to stay in the capital and survive.

"No, ten million is too much, let's say three million!"

Hearing this, Qiu Zongyue immediately said in a bargaining manner, but Chen Guohua shook his head and said:

"For leaders, it's only 10 million, and this is a reward, and it is not included in the daily investment share of our Zhenhua Research Institute."

After hearing his words, Qiu Zongyue continued:

"What on earth do you want, kid?"

"I want to set up a few more laboratories, recruit more college students, and do some research."

Chen Guohua has an inexplicable obsession with pork, although he doesn't like eating pork very much.

But every time during the holidays, I still like to eat a piece of meat with moderate fatness and leanness to satisfy my craving.

Yes, he is still greedy for meat.

In his opinion, no other meat dish is more attractive than braised meat.

Perhaps abalone, salmon and other seafood taste better, or some delicacies such as bear paws are more famous, but they are not as good as braised pork.

Before lunch today, Chen Guohua encountered something about swine fever, which reminded him of some not-so-good things in the history of time and space.

At that time, Chen Guohua's family had to spend a lot of money every year to hire someone to breed their old sows.

This requires a lot of money.

As we all know, in the 1990s, the mainland's pork market was already dominated by white pigs.

At that time, the pigs raised by Chen Guohua and his family were this kind of white pigs.

White pigs are a foreign breed, not native to the mainland.

The pork varieties in the Mainland are all black pigs. There are about eight such black pig varieties in the country. However, after the 1960s and 1970s, they were gradually replaced by white pigs.

The reason is also very simple, that is, white pigs are better.

At that time, black pigs here in the mainland had eight to ten piglets in one litter.

However, a litter of white pigs can have up to eighteen piglets, which is a big gap.

The most important point is that compared to black pigs, white pigs are less likely to get sick and die.

Therefore, the country imports 20,000 breeding pigs from abroad every year, or even more.

The price of a breeding pig ranges from 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, which is very expensive.

This is a bit similar to how we bought foreign chips back then.

After all, the price of an ordinary piece of raw pork, based on the retail price of twelve yuan, and calculated based on two hundred and seventy kilograms of meat, would be more than three thousand yuan.

As a result, the price of a breeding pig increased tenfold or even higher.

But we still have to import it, because the mainland is the world's largest pork consumer, eating at least 670 million pigs every year.

In fact, it stands to reason that as long as you purchase breeding pigs, you can cultivate them yourself. There is no need to import them every year. After all, no one wants to be a big mistake and spend this money.

However, this involves genetic engineering technology.

A good breeding pig cannot be selected from hundreds of thousands or millions of breeding pigs.

Just like the chip, good breeding pigs must be selected from the genetic level.

As we all know, after the chip is enlarged, it has a nanostructure, which involves ion implantation equipment, deep ultraviolet and extreme ultraviolet lithography machines, etc. This is a systematic industrial chain.

The selection of breeding pigs and the production of chips are almost the same.

If you zoom in on this pig, you will see that it has genes composed of billions of base pairs.

Selecting breeding pigs requires studying clearly which genes can bring advantages to pigs and avoid disadvantages in such a huge genome.

In addition, breeding pigs, like chips, need to be upgraded.

After three or four generations of breeding pigs, breed degradation will occur.

Of course, such breeding pigs can still be used.

However, it may only be able to give birth to eight or nine piglets per litter, and may even be more susceptible to illness and death.

In the original history of time and space, Chen Guohua's family also raised breeding pigs for sale, and even let them reproduce on their own.

But after two or three years, the situation was no longer good.

It was precisely because of such losses that Chen Guohua came up with the idea of ​​genetic technology because of swine fever.

This point is actually somewhat similar to the research on hybrid rice.

In his previous life, Chen Guohua's family also had several acres of rice fields. Later, they even cultivated rice fields in the same village or the next village. At one time, the size of the rice fields reached 15 acres.

Therefore, Chen Guohua's six summer vacations in junior high school and high school were all painful memories.

Fifteen acres of rice fields are all used to grow rice and peanuts.

Every summer from mid-to-late July to August, which happens to be the summer vacation, Chen Guohua would work in the fields. Except for the year after the college entrance examination, when he went to the assembly line factory to make Christmas cards, he had not been absent in other years.

The busy farming season is really life-threatening. It’s hard and hungry, and the sun is still very bright.

The most painful thing is that when you are working in the fields, you suddenly see dark clouds coming from a corner of the sky, and you have to run home to harvest the rice.

It was a race against time, a race against God to harvest rice.

Chen Guohua didn't want to think about these painful memories, but now his mind was very good. Many memories about his previous life were as clear as watching a movie. (End of chapter)
