Chapter 2286

~6 min read 1,056 words

Not long after, Professors Luo Ping and Huang Chuanyong came together. Now these two professors were also over fifty years old. They saw Su Xinghui and greeted him happily.

Professor Rao's wife had already cooked the food and brought it to the table. The food was relatively simple, which was mutton hot pot, plus side dishes. This mutton was sent by the cooperative of Changshan County, which was Matou goat. Eating it in this winter was the most nourishing.

In addition to the hot pot, Professor Rao's wife also braised a dish of bamboo rat meat. This was, of course, sent by the cooperative of Meng Hu Ling in Shangjun County.

Professor Rao sighed and said, "These breeding cooperatives send me this kind of meat every year, making me embarrassed."

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "This is also as it should be. If it weren't for you, they wouldn't be able to get rich!"

Luo Ping said, "They are really intentional. Some people, after so many years, would still remember us!"

Professor Rao said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't remember us. We didn't work for this, but with this, we have more motivation to work."

Su Xinghui opened a bottle of wine and poured wine for several professors. He was the youngest and could be called a junior, so he took the initiative to be the wine official.

Pouring wine for several professors, Su Xinghui raised his glass and said, "Come, teachers, we haven't drunk together for a long time, I toast you a glass."

Several professors didn't drink much, so they only drank small sips. Su Xinghui naturally wouldn't persuade them to drink. Several people drank casually, ate the fragrant and nourishing mutton hot pot, and were very comfortable.

Drinking two glasses of wine, Professor Rao said, "Luo Ping, Chuanyong, Xinghui is here today to ask for help from you. You must help him."

Luo Ping and Huang Chuanyong said, "What else is there to say? Just say whatever Xinghui has. We will never refuse what we can do."

Su Xinghui said, "Teachers, I just want to develop ecological agriculture in our Chongjin County, so I need to ask you for advice on some things."

Luo Ping said, "Engaging in ecological agriculture? That's a good thing. This is the trend of modern agriculture. You are indeed a county magistrate with vision!"

Huang Chuanyong also nodded and said, "Ecological agriculture is indeed promising. Tell me your ideas first."

Su Xinghui said, "Our Chongjin County is by Yanglan Lake, with an area of more than 3,000 square kilometers, including more than 600 square kilometers of water surface. The water quality is good and the soil quality is good. It is very suitable for developing ecological agriculture, producing high-quality agricultural products and aquatic products. I still want to be like Shangjun and Changshan, build the ecological agriculture industrial chain, and make it one of the pillar industries of Chongjin County."

The agricultural industrial chain that Su Xinghui engaged in in Shangjun and Changshan was very clear to several professors. They knew Su Xinghui's ability. Chongjin County had such good natural conditions, and wanting to develop agricultural industrialization was simply too suitable.

Luo Ping asked, "Is the main crop of Chongjin County rice?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Yes, Chongjin County is the main rice producing area in Jiangyou Province."

Huang Chuanyong said, "Since you want to engage in ecological agriculture, it means you can't use chemical fertilizers and pesticides on a large scale, so the yield might not go up."

Su Xinghui said, "So I plan to use a lot of organic fertilizer, and I also want to promote fish farming in rice fields on a large scale."

Huang Chuanyong's eyes lit up and said, "This is a good idea!"

Su Xinghui said, "I just heard that your Jiangcheng Agricultural University's technology in organic fertilizer is very advanced, so I came to ask you for advice."

Huang Chuanyong said, "In this regard, our school's technology is indeed very good, but it hasn't been put into actual production! It's a pity."

Organic fertilizer could provide more comprehensive nutrients, also had an improvement effect on soil quality, and had much less pollution to the environment. The advantages were not small, but this kind of fertilizer also had its weaknesses, such as higher production costs, less yield-increasing effect than chemical fertilizer, and a heavier smell, and the application amount per mu was far greater than chemical fertilizer.

Because of this, many farmers didn't like to use organic fertilizer very much, so there were very few manufacturers producing organic fertilizer now, leaving Jiangcheng Agricultural University with advanced technology but only able to be shelved.

Su Xinghui said, "This time I plan to cooperate with your school to run an organic fertilizer factory in Chongjin County."

Huang Chuanyong said, "That's great, then our technology won't be left there to rust."

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Not only will the technology not be left there to rust, but the partner can also provide you with a research fund!"

This kind of cooperation model was a relatively common cooperation model between universities and enterprises. Universities provided technology to enterprises, while enterprises provided research funds to universities. This was a virtuous cycle, which was good for both enterprises and universities.

Such a model allowed the scientific research results of universities not to be shelved, and allowed them to have sufficient funds for research, so that the research direction could be connected with the actual needs of the market.

However, this model was currently not well developed. Many universities were working behind closed doors, some valuable scientific research results were left there to rust, and some research results from universities had no practical effect at all, which was a complete waste of time and money.

Huang Chuanyong nodded and said, "This is a good thing. Now some scientific research projects are indeed not enough to rely on appropriations!"

Scientific research was indeed a money-burning thing. Generally speaking, scientific research results were directly proportional to investment. If you want to research advanced technology, you can't do it without huge investment.

In the past, China's scientific research model was basically state financial appropriation, with limited investment. Some scientific research directions related to national security had the largest investment, while investment in civil technology was not that large.
