Golden Fishery
v2 Chapter 1526: .Water Salmon
Qin Shiou was about to tidy up the seagulls and figure out a way to drive them away, but Tiya called him and said that the Newfoundland Fisheries Union had an important meeting and asked him to go to St. John's to participate.
Because of the nature of the alliance and his requirements, the headquarters of the Fisheries Union was arranged in St. John's. However, the alliance has just been established and everything is still immature. The office space leased to them by the Fisheries Department is still under renovation. He has never used to work.
This meeting of the Ministry of Fisheries was held in Ottawa, but thanks to the rapid development of science and technology, video conferences can be held, and Qin Shiou can participate in St. John’s.
Temporary office is in an office building. The alliance office staff has not been recruited. In fact, there is nothing wrong. Tiya brought the HR department to sort out member information. Other aspects of the alliance have not yet started, and they do not need to be busy.
The meeting was on Thursday. After Qin Shiou went to the hotel, Tiya handed him a piece of information and said: "This meeting is related to the U.S. Department of Fisheries and the FDA. When Secretary Matthew said, you will listen more and say less, but you may have something to do with it. Our alliance is related, you have to listen carefully."
Related to the FDA? Qin Shiou was a little confused. FDA is the abbreviation of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. All Canadian fishery resources entering the United States need to be tested by this agency, but the current task of the Newfoundland Fisheries Alliance is to build rather than sell, so the two parties should not. Build a relationship.
He thought that video conferencing was a black technology similar to holographic projection in the movie. As a result, Tiya found him a place to sit down, opened the notebook, and there was a government office software in it. Find the room of the Fisheries Department, open it, and that's it.
Qin Shiou was a little bit blind, and looked at Tiya eagerly, "That's it?"
Don’t talk about the whole projection. Is it possible to have a big screen? It doesn't matter if you don't have a big screen, can you give a comfortable boss chair? This is a laptop on a desk, and the chair he is sitting on does not even have a backrest. He has to hold his chest and abdomen to sit firmly.
Tiya smiled sweetly while holding the folder. Big eyes narrowed into a beautiful crescent: "Yes, chairman, that's it."
At ten o'clock, people began to appear on the screen. Qin Shiou put on a headset. At this time, Matthew King walked in, looked at the big screen in their meeting room, and nodded in satisfaction. Then he picked up the microphone and said, "Hi, Qin, you are in a good working condition, with the vigor and energy of a young man, so go ahead."
Qin Shiou wondered what he said, but then watched other video conference participants, and those who participated in other places like him were leaning slantingly on their chairs. He was the only one who sat there neatly, and he was indeed very energetic.
So he could understand why Tiya arranged for him such a stool instead of a chair. The little assistant handled the details very well.
The Canadian government department held a meeting to pay attention to efficiency and directly named the subject. Matthew King told them that the Canadian and American Fisheries Department and the FDA wanted to cooperate in breeding a genetically modified salmon in some waters of the Newfoundland fishery.
This genetically modified salmon is called AquAdvantage salmon, which was developed by ABTX Technologies (ABTX) in Massachusetts, USA. The scientific team undertook this development project by the University of Toronto and the University of Newfoundland in Canada. The research time has been more than 25 years.
After 20 years of approval, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved this salmon to be sold on the market. For this project. The spring of development has arrived.
Upon hearing this news, Qin Shiou secretly cursed cheating in his heart. No wonder Tiya conveyed Matthew King’s words and asked him to watch as much as possible and talk less. He is full of anger now, his tone is similar to that of lit gunpowder.
There is an introduction about this salmon in the information. The roe of this fish comes from Prince Edward Island, and the genetic modification technology also comes from Canada. So it seems that it is not a big problem to let the Newfoundland fishery take care of the farming.
High-level officials of the Fisheries Department said that this was an opportunity, and that it was a gift to the Newfoundland Fisheries Union to celebrate the establishment of the Union, and then a group of people applauded there.
Qin Shiou asked to speak several times, but he was killed by Matthew Jin. The old minister knew his character and knew that this would make him speak. It must be a **** storm.
But the old minister has to understand the truth that blocking is worse than sparse. The official Qin exploded and slapped the table angrily: "Fuck him for genetically modified salmon, for his chance, for his gift for us, Isn't he cheating me?!"
He is not clear about the topic of this meeting, but he is very clear about this salmon. After all, this project was initiated in Newfoundland, and after so many years, even Shaq fishermen should know about this salmon.
At the beginning of the establishment of this project, it was very beautiful. It has won the support of the Canadian Department of Fisheries and the government. It is considered a milestone in the field of agricultural biotechnology.
Indeed, for the field of agricultural biotechnology, this project is a milestone. This salmon has strong vitality and fast growth. After maturity, it can grow to 60 to 70 cm and weighs 6 to 7 pounds. Under normal circumstances, the weight of salmon is equal to The length is only half of it.
But there is no market for this fish. For more than 20 years, it has not been able to enter the market successfully. However, I heard from the meeting that the FDA approved this fish to enter the US market, and it seems that Canada will also open the market at the same time.
The question is, what is the use of FDA consent? The people are willing to buy it, and the supermarket chains and the aquatic product market are willing to sell it. But according to Qin Shiou’s knowledge, people are not willing at all, and the people don’t want to eat this salmon. At least from the current stage, it is not profitable to breed this fish. Graphable.
Since it is unprofitable, what is the Newfoundland fish farming thing for? The main purpose of this alliance led by Qin Shiou is to develop fisheries. That's right, but isn't development just for getting rich? Who wants to breed a fish that can't get rich?
Qin Shiou patted the table, and everyone in the large office looked at him in surprise.
Because the formal office building has not been renovated yet, they rented a meeting room in a hotel. Several departments work together. Everyone was shocked when he shot the table.
Qin Shiou noticed this and was a little embarrassed. He made an apologetic gesture, then took out his phone and called Matthew-Jin directly. From the screen, he could see that Matthew-Jin’s phone was vibrating, but the latter After looking at the phone, he didn't answer it, and continued the quiet meeting, which made him depressed.
