Chapter 615: The Situation Is Grim

After Liu Xiaopang's words, Liu Qingyu's face was as black as the bottom of a black pot.

From childhood to adulthood, many of Liu Qingyu's thoughts were deeply influenced by his father Liu Fei, and he knew very well that his father Liu Fei hated the products of Zhuan *Jiyin, especially with the increasing incidence of various stubborn diseases such as high blood pressure and diabetes in Huaxia, and with the linear increase in the infertility rate of Huaxia people, Liu Qingyu was very disgusted with Zhuan *Jiyin products, especially when he saw that some large grain and oil companies actually used gutter oil to pass off as edible oil, without any lower limit, Liu Qingyu did not have much good impression of these foreign-funded grain and oil enterprises.

Now, Liu Xiaopang actually said that the entire Ruiyuan County has become the birthplace of genetically modified seeds, which makes Liu Qingyu almost angry.

Liu Qingyu, as the secretary of the Ruiyuan County Party Committee, knows too well the agricultural positioning of Ruiyuan County.

Ruiyuan County has positioned itself as the birthplace of seeds in the entire Nanhua City and even the entire Baiyun Province since more than 10 years ago, around this strategy, many cadres in Ruiyuan County have been working hard, even if the ability of the cadres is no longer good, with years of development, Ruiyuan County has also become the largest seed birthplace in Nanhua City, and a considerable part of the seeds in the entire Baiyun Province are sold by Ruiyuan County.

If Ruiyuan County is full of genetically modified seeds, then it means that the entire Nanhua City and even the entire Baiyun Province are almost in the midst of a genetically modified crisis. If that is the case, this will be an absolutely disastrous consequence for Baiyun Province, a major agricultural province, especially a major grain exporting province.

Liu Qingyu knows that not all genetically modified foods have problems, but most genetically modified foods do not have a way to prove their safety, especially the safety of eating, otherwise, the European Union and other countries will not ban the import of genetically modified foods.

Liu Qingyu's heart was almost frantic at this moment.

However, Liu Qingyu still reluctantly calmed himself down first, and asked in a deep voice: "Fatty, are you sure that the result you said is reliable? Let me tell you, if what you said is true, then the nature of this problem is extremely serious." ”

When Liu Xiaopang saw the boss's expression, he knew that the boss was very serious this time, and he also said very seriously: "Boss, I can assure you that all the words I said are true." The reason why I have been conducting the investigation below for so many days is that I want to thoroughly understand the real situation of the seed industry and market in Ruiyuan County, and for this reason, I have conducted an extremely detailed and thorough investigation.

According to my detailed investigation of the people in various towns and villages in Ruiyuan County, many farmers now use seeds that are basically not kept by themselves, and they use finished seeds purchased from various seed companies, and trace the source of these seeds, I found that most of these seeds come from abroad, even if they are packaged as domestic origins, but in fact, a large part of them are from abroad, especially from the United States, and more than 90% of these seeds are genetically modified seeds.

Another point that shocked me was that farmers in Ruiyuan County have been buying finished seeds for more than ten years. And that's what really shook me. According to my understanding, more than 20 years ago, the seeds used by farmers to plant their fields were often selected from their own fields with relatively full seed grains as seeds, but in the past 16 or 7 years, farmers have stopped keeping their own seeds, and the reason is very simple: if they continue to keep seeds in this way, the seeds they leave behind will not be used at all. Because the seeds they keep are quite low-yielding, and the seedlings are thin.

I remember that there is a relevant agricultural data showing that in order to ensure their absolute control over the genetically modified seeds, the research and development institutions of genetically modified seeds deliberately left some defects in the seeds when designing their genetic sequences, so that the germination rate and planting rate of the seeds are fully attenuated after two or three generations of planting, so that the people have to buy their latest seeds, and they can control the price at will, so as to control the entire grain market. ”

Liu Qingyu nodded: "You're right, this method is indeed a common practice for many genetically modified product manufacturers, can you conclude that these farmers grow genetically modified corn and soybeans based on this alone?"

Liu Xiaopang shook his head and said, "Of course not." In order to confirm my conjecture, I specially went to nearly 100 peasant households, extracted grain samples from their homes for the last ten years, and then sent them to the Yanjing Genetically Modified Products Appraisal Center for identification, and the results of the appraisal shocked me, I took more than 800 samples from these more than 100 peasant households, and personally 756 samples belonged to genetically modified products, especially corn samples, and the transgenic rate was as high as 98 percent! Boss, tell me how grim the current situation is. ”

After Liu Qingyu listened, he felt a little chill down his spine.

Liu Qingyu is very clear that his father also once served in Baiyun Province, and he was quite disgusted with genetically modified corn and soybeans during his tenure, and took a variety of measures to crack down, but he never expected that after so many years, not only did genetically modified corn not become extinct, but intensified and even swept the whole province.

This situation is just too serious.

What should I do? What should I do? For a moment, Liu Qingyu fell into deep contemplation.

After pondering for a long time, Liu Qingyu slowly raised his head and asked, "Fatty, tell me, why did Ruiyuan County become the birthplace of genetically modified corn and genetically modified soybean seeds?"

Liu Xiaopang said with a wry smile: "It's very simple, the collusion between officials and businessmen and the monopoly of foreign enterprises are the bane! If there were no bribes accepted by some local officials to open the door for these foreign-funded seed enterprises, these foreign enterprises would not have been able to transport genetically modified seeds into Ruiyuan County so smoothly. Transportation and other links, as long as they are given a little profit and a way to live, they will not cut off the normal source and way of seeds, and will not allow foreign-funded seed enterprises to form a group monopoly advantage in Ruiyuan County, so that they can arbitrarily set prices and raise prices; although my view is a bit extreme, I still want to say that I think that in this kind of thing, many officials in Ruiyuan County should bear the main responsibility! If they could be a little more responsible and not so greedy, then the current situation would not have been formed. ”

After Liu Xiaopang finished speaking, Liu Qingyu's face became even more grim. Regarding Liu Xiaopang's words, although Liu Qingyu did not fully agree, he had to admit that Liu Xiaopang's words were quite reasonable. Judging from his research results, it is precisely because officials at all levels in Ruiyuan County have vigorously promoted the survival scale of Yihai Group and other foreign-funded seed enterprises in Ruiyuan County for their own interests, and even some officials have received bribes, and have vigorously suppressed and squeezed out other domestic seed brands, resulting in Ruiyuan County becoming a monopoly of the three major foreign-funded seed enterprises.

Thinking of this, Liu Qingyu's eyes flashed with two strong murderous aura, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Now it seems that the anti-corruption wave I have set off in Ruiyuan County is still not big enough, and agriculture, which is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, has also become a hard-hit area of corruption, which I absolutely cannot tolerate! It seems that it is necessary for me to carry out the anti-corruption work more deeply and thoroughly!"

Liu Xiaopang said: "Boss, it's not too late to make amends, let's act quickly, otherwise, once this year's spring planting begins, genetically modified corn, genetically modified soybeans, and rice seeds will fully occupy the farmland of Ruiyuan County, I am afraid that the entire Baiyun Province will also become the hardest hit area of genetically modified at that time!"

Liu Qingyu nodded lightly: "Well, that's a good point, it's not too late to make amends!"

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qingyu immediately fell into deep thought.

Although Liu Qingyu's heart was full of murder and anger, he also knew that the reason why Ruiyuan County became the hardest hit area of genetically modified seeds was definitely not formed overnight, and it was definitely not something that could be solved by one's own words or a meeting, and it must involve the interests of all parties. For example, the Nanhua Municipal Agricultural Bureau and the Baiyun Provincial Department of Agriculture, don't they know about genetically modified seeds?

If they say that they don't know that Liu Qingyu believes it for a year or two, but this is a genetically modified seed of 16 or 7 years, doesn't the Provincial Department of Agriculture know anything about it? Haven't they ever conducted regular tests on the grain in Ruiyuan County or Baiyun Province?

That's absolutely impossible. Because they all have regular inspection tasks. However, in the past ten years, there has not been a test report mentioning the matter of genetically modified seeds, is the technical level not up to or some people deliberately conceal it?

How many people will be involved? How many interests will be involved?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt the seriousness of this matter and the seriousness of the problem.

He knows very well that he really can't act rashly in this matter, otherwise, once he startles the snake, he will move his whole body, even if he has Zeng Hongtao's support behind him, but at the level of Nanhua City, it may be destroyed by someone! At that time, Zeng Hongtao will not be able to pull himself even if he wants to!

Smoke one cigarette after another!

Liu Qingyu kept standing up and pacing back and forth in the office.

He was so irritable, so disappointed, so sad!

Food security is a major matter that has a bearing on the national economy and the people's livelihood! Why do some people not care at all? There are even some brick families who call for beasts to run for genetically modified organisms all day long!

Yes, genetically modified technology is indeed something that our country should master, there is no problem, and it is also a major strategy, but the problem is that genetically modified products, especially genetically modified food, should not be used as experiments by our Chinese people!

What should I do?
