Jinjiang genuine 54
The third floor of the Science and Technology Research Museum is divided into two parts: the plant laboratory and the seed gene bank.
When the elevator door opens, the first thing you see is the laboratory.
The white hatch is thick and technological, with good sealing and resistance, just like an indestructible ancient city wall. It can withstand extreme weather conditions and isolate itself from the outside environment, forming a space of its own without being disturbed by anyone.
Through the translucent glass wall, Yu Siming saw the clean and tidy experimental area inside the laboratory, as well as the high-end equipment placed on the table, and his eyes were full of astonishment.
He couldn't help but walk forward, leaning against the glass and looking inside, not caring at all about his image as a research genius.
Yu Siming originally thought that as a private botanical garden, and given that the laboratory had just been built, it would be great to have basic equipment such as a plant root scanner, a fluorescent microscope, an ultraviolet-visible photometer, and a portable photosynthesis meter.
After all, high-precision experimental equipment, especially core high-end equipment and instruments, can easily cost more than a million, and the cost of preparing a complete set is close to tens of millions!
Without the support of national scientific research funds, who would have such strong financial resources?
However, what appeared before his eyes at this moment was a complete set of high-end equipment and instruments, including various basic and non-basic instruments, which can almost only be seen in national laboratories, and there was more than one set!
He didn't know exactly how many sets there were, but from what he could see, there were at least three.
Three sets of...
According to the market price, it would be 30 million at the bottom.
And this is only the cost of the equipment, and does not include the construction costs of the sterile operating room, independent operating table, and laboratory, etc.
Even though Yu Siming had seen the grand scale of the exhibition greenhouse, he couldn't help but marvel at the high-end and complete configuration of the laboratory.
Ye Han considerately gave the other party some time to calm down, and then said: "Let's go in and take a look first."
Yu Siming retracted his gaze, trying his best to suppress his inner excitement, and said in a hoarse voice: "Okay."
The intelligent recognition system at the hatch performed facial and fingerprint recognition on Ye Han, and an electronic voice sounded beside his ears: "Authentication is correct, welcome to the Huajianji Botanical Laboratory."
The white hatch automatically moved to the sides, and then quickly closed after the two people entered, fitting so tightly that not even a mosquito could fly in.
Yu Siming looked around and this time saw the entire laboratory.
The rows of laboratory tables are clean and tidy, the lockers are carefully classified, and all items and instruments are arranged according to the human movement lines without any adjustment.
There are one, two, three...a total of five sets of precision high-end instruments on the experimental table!
The amount of assets consumed is absolutely astronomical.
Yu Siming took a deep breath and walked forward impatiently to carefully check the models and accuracy of these instruments.
These instruments were even more complete and sophisticated than when he saw them through the glass. The types of microscopes alone included: ultra-high resolution fast-scanning laser confocal scanning microscope, transmission electron microscope, cryo-scanning electron microscope, fluorescence upright microscope, fluorescence inverted microscope, fluorescence upright microscope, ultra-depth-of-field digital microscope...
Two of the devices were ones he had never even seen before.
Looking at the labels and classifications on top of a certain instrument, Yu Siming always felt as if he had some impression of it.
He searched quickly in his mind and soon found the source.
Just last June, researchers from the same team mentioned this.
At that time, this instrument had just been developed and put on the market. It used the most advanced plasma emission spectroscopy technology, and its effect was more than 50% better than before.
However, due to its high R&D costs and exclusive technical patents, its selling price is extremely high, so his research institute did not introduce it.
Didn't expect to see it here.
Yu Siming's heart was filled with excitement. He checked the instruments one by one and felt that his knowledge was refreshed again.
In just half a day, he had been shocked twice by Huajianji.
Yu Siming couldn't help but glance at Ye Han beside him.
This incredibly young director is more visionary than any other research institute in building a laboratory. He is willing to spend huge amounts of money to conduct plant research, and he possesses amazing courage.
Under her leadership, Huajianji will surely become the country's leading botanical garden.
And if he could work in such an environment——
That would be his dream come true.
After viewing the instruments outside the laboratory, the two visited the sterile operation room, plant tissue culture room and seedling test area inside.
Every part made Yu Siming feel incredible. The artificially controlled temperature, humidity, light, climate, water and soil all achieved extremely high precision.
How can the survival rate of seeds or seedlings not be high when they are grown in such an environment?
What shocked him most was the intelligent control center located in the central area.
The intelligent system connects all instruments and experimental areas, and will automatically scan and upload research data and plant samples to the database to share information. It will also diagnose possible errors that may occur during the experiment and make probabilistic predictions on scientific research results, thereby greatly saving scientific research time.
At the same time, it has extremely advanced cloud platforms and data centers.
The search function is powerful enough to connect to databases around the world. Except for confidential information such as patent protection, any plant-related questions can be answered here.
It can also classify and prioritize the information found, avoiding wasting time in redundant data searches.
Yu Siming tried the search function three times. He didn’t know if it was his illusion, but the information ranked in the first two places must contain the part he wanted.
It is so convenient and efficient.
He couldn't help but sigh that the development of big data has reached such an astonishing level and the degree of intelligence is beyond imagination.
Ye Han: “…”
This is probably not something that the current big data can do.
Fortunately, the botanical researchers are not computer experts and will not think too much about it.
After the tour, Ye Han asked with a smile, "Dr. Yu, what do you think of this laboratory?"
Yu Siming tried his best to remain calm, but his voice trembled unconsciously: "It's perfect, comparable to a national laboratory."
Before coming here, he never thought that a private botanical garden would have a laboratory of such high standards.
All equipment and instruments are state-of-the-art, with extremely high precision and sensitivity. The operating room and culture room are well-controlled, and have an intelligent central system and huge retrieval functions, which are completely beyond his imagination.
"That's good."
After being certified by this Ph.D. in botany from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ye Han was completely relieved.
After the laboratory was completed, Ye Han was actually a little worried about whether the instruments printed by W04 were consistent with the current equipment models.
But now it seems that these concerns were unnecessary.
The other party's replica was perfect, maintaining consistency with the current level while using technology to bring convenience, which is the best state at the moment.
Opposite the laboratory is the seed gene bank.
Seed banks are of great significance. They are the Noah's Ark of plants and play an irreplaceable role in maintaining species diversity.
The world's largest seed bank is located beneath the Arctic permafrost in Svalbard, Norway, where there is an icy cellar containing more than one million "backup" samples of plant seeds.
These seeds come from more than 200 countries and regions around the world and are known as the "Doomsday Seed Bank."
Many countries have similar seed banks in case of emergency.
The preservation of seeds requires a low temperature environment and can only be preserved for a long time in an environment below minus 18 degrees.
Before they are preserved, they must undergo a series of special treatments such as drying, cleaning, and checking for activity. After confirming that the samples are intact, they will be stored in a low-temperature environment underground. Only in this way can the seeds be preserved for hundreds or even thousands of years.
Stored seeds need to be tested for germination every few years to keep them active at all times, to avoid them losing their activity when they are actually used.
Ye Han and Yu Siming arrived at the door of the seed gene bank.
This is a fully enclosed space. The thick white door blocks everything and makes it impossible to peek into the environment inside.
Yu Siming wrapped his coat tightly around him.
In early January, the temperature outside dropped to 5-8℃ and the temperature was gradually getting colder, but this cold was nothing compared to the freezing temperatures below -18 degrees Celsius.
It was so cold that even just getting close to it would make your teeth chatter.
Yu Siming seemed to have felt the cold air behind the hatch, and rubbed his hands imperceptibly: "We plan to stay in here for a while, should we wear cold-proof clothing?"
Ye Han smiled slightly: "No need. It's not cold inside."
Not cold?
Is minus 20 degrees not cold enough?
Or does it mean that the seeds don’t need to be preserved for that long, just twenty or thirty years?
Just as they were thinking about it, the cabin door recognized Ye Han's identity and slowly opened in front of the two of them.
After opening it, Yu Siming felt absolutely shocked, it was a scene he would never forget.
His constricted pupils reflected a huge layer of ice several meters away. It was thick and hard, translucent and transparent like ice crystals. For a moment, he felt as if he had come to a world of ice and snow in the polar regions.
This place is like a huge glacier composed of countless ice surfaces, extending from the ground to the ceiling of more than 5 meters, and then spreading around. Everywhere you look, there is a thick layer of ice, extending from the door to a depth of more than 20 meters.
There are neat cracks and gaps in the middle to allow people to pass through and go deeper into the interior to store seeds.
However, from Yu Siming's perspective, the huge glacier covering the entire space in front of him was bottomless, like a ferocious beast that was ready to devour its prey, opening its bloody mouth and waiting for his arrival.
Yu Siming swallowed and looked up at the thick glaciers around him.
Everything is so beyond imagination.
No matter how he imagined, he would never have thought that the scene would be like this after the seed bank was opened.
It was completely beyond his understanding.
The thermometer above the ice showed a temperature of -20 degrees Celsius, but he realized belatedly that it was not cold at all.
Those cold temperatures were frozen inside the ice and had no effect on the temperature outside.
In the thick ice layer, tens of thousands of "glass bottles" are stored inside, labeled and numbered according to categories. Just click the corresponding number on the central control system, and the storage bottle will automatically pop out and be discharged from a separate discharge port along the internal holes.
At that time, put the processed seeds in it, pull them out and put them back.
The laboratory opposite has a complete set of seed processing equipment, which stores diluted plant nutrient solution to better maintain the activity of the seeds.
Yu Siming stood there motionless, and after a while he went forward to check this natural cold storage.
These ice layers...are they really ice layers?
Or is it a simulated environment?
He still feels it's very unreal.
Yu Siming touched it with his hand and instantly felt endless coldness spreading along his fingertips. It was so cold, extremely cold, as if it could freeze his fingers in the next second.
He pulled his hand back abruptly.
It's true.
But why can't I feel the cold temperature?
Ye Han calmly explained: "These ice layers are actually based on the same principle as freezers, but they are made to look like the original ecology. However, the technology used is indeed the latest 'frozen polymer ion structure technology', which is still in the initial experimental stage."
She made this up.
But combined with a calm tone, it gives people a convincing feeling.
"...I see." Yu Siming murmured in a low voice: "It's new technology."
He himself had his doubts, but firstly, he was not a scientist in this field; secondly, the experimental equipment just now were all new technologies that had just been launched on the market, some of which he had never even come into contact with.
With the lessons learned from the past, the current explanation seems reasonable.
However, the seed bank before him refreshed his understanding again.
Since coming to Huajianji, it has been a process of constantly refreshing my cognition.
Yu Siming, a PhD from the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a research genius, felt for the first time how ignorant he was.
He took a final look at the 'glass bottle' hidden in the thick glacier, and felt deeply that no barrier could surpass this natural refrigerator.
The two took the elevator to leave the Science and Technology Research Museum, and Yu Siming was still thinking about the scene he had just seen.
In addition to shock, there is also excitement and yearning. All kinds of feelings are mixed together to form a belief, which is -
He must enter Huajianji.
Yu Siming took the initiative to hand over his resume and copies of some of his research results. Looking at the list of awards and academic research papers on it, Ye Han gained a new understanding of his research ability.
He is a rare talent.
Wang Yun also helped Ye Han make detailed inquiries and investigations on his personal qualities, comprehensive abilities, team leadership, stability, income, family, etc., and consulted Dr. Hou on some related issues.
Based on the information they received, they both agreed that Yu Siming was qualified for the position of scientific research project leader.
After the discussion, Ye Han discussed with the scientific research talent based on his previous salary and the current market salary level: "Dr. Yu, your ability is obvious to all, and we have decided to hire you.
The salary plan is: 500,000 basic salary + 200,000 project bonus, a total of 700,000 annual salary. What do you think of this salary? "
Yu Siming was stunned when he heard the salary.
The W City Research Institute where he originally planned to work had an annual salary of only 300,000, but now it has more than doubled!
My annual salary in my previous job was high, but the cost of living abroad was also correspondingly high. In comparison, it is actually not much different from before.
The environment, experimental equipment, and research on rare plant species here are far superior to any previous environment. He can also lead projects independently. Where can he find such a position?
This made him, who had already decided to come here, even more determined.
Yu Siming immediately said, "Okay."
Wang Yun and Ye Han smiled at each other. Huajianji finally recruited suitable scientific research talents.
If it weren't for Dr. Hou's recommendation, they wouldn't know where to find someone with such rich experience, experience in leading scientific research projects, and outstanding academic ability.
Be sure to thank the other person when the time comes.
Yu Siming returned home with a smile on his face, and Mrs. Wang was shocked when she saw his expression.
She had been in this family for two or three months and had never seen Mr. Yu in such a good mood. She was really not used to it.
What good thing happened?
When he left in the morning, his face was still a little gloomy. It was surprising that he became like this in just one morning.
As soon as Yu Siming returned home, he contacted Dr. Hou to express his gratitude.
Dr. Hou was also happy for him. The two chatted for a while and asked about the working environment: "I heard from Director Ye that their laboratory has just been built. Do they have the basic equipment?
Don't worry about this, it's just the starting stage now, you can slowly add to it later."
Yu Siming said with a smile: "The laboratory equipment is already ready."
Dr. Hou paused and asked, "What do you mean, a complete set? A complete set of high-end equipment?"
Yu Siming said "hmm" and did not reveal that it was 5 sets of equipment, which would definitely cause an uproar.
"As expected of Director Ye, this is a generous gift." Dr. Hou exclaimed, "We don't have any here, they are all mixed and matched."
One set costs tens of millions, and research funding is very tight, so how can we replace all of them with high-end ones?
Some of them have a very high depreciation rate and have not been replaced even after reporting.
"By the way, how are the salaries there? They should be pretty good."
After all, it was he who recommended his friend to the company, and he also hoped that his friend could get a better salary.
Yu Siming was not comfortable saying that it was more than twice that of the research institute, so he just said that he would treat him to a meal.
Upon hearing this, Dr. Hou knew that the salary was definitely not low.
Even he was a little envious.
Using high-end equipment, high salary and good environment.
But he also knew that Yu Siming was extremely capable and deserved such treatment.
With a research team leader, recruiting researchers became much smoother.
In addition to Yu Siming, another PhD candidate, Cai Jiayan, who specializes in the study of perennial flowers, was hired to be responsible for the study of perennial herbaceous plants that bloom every year. Although he does not have as much experience as Yu Siming, he has also worked in a research institute and has good abilities.
Six of the researchers are botany graduate students, and the requirements are relatively not that high.
Now there are 8 people in the research team, two groups of 1+3 model, and Yu Siming is the general person in charge.
It is currently the flowering period of Comet Orchid and Paphiopedilum. Yu Siming's team has begun studying the relevant information of Darwin Orchid's low-temperature pollination. With the assistance of the powerful retrieval, error correction and prediction functions of the intelligent system, the research is progressing rapidly.
Cai Jiayan's group first established a seed gene bank.
The best samples of Victoria regia seeds, Twin Lotus seeds, and seeds of other plants are selected and preserved and sealed under the iceberg.
Ye Han and his employees have also been busy, screening photos of plants and collecting photographs and paintings to create a photo wall and plant-related science popularization.
The exhibition hall on the first floor of the science museum is expected to open in two weeks.
This chapter is too late, so I'll give everyone red envelopes, muah.
