Chapter 378 Is it enough?
The shiny black and sturdy pig shown on the big screen turned out to be a native Chinese pig breed that had disappeared for many years - the Hexi pig!
This astonishing result left everyone present dumbfounded.
Gu Chang's words were like a thunderbolt that split the sky, echoing for a long time above the Agricultural University gymnasium.
The originally noisy meeting place suddenly became silent, but just a moment later, all kinds of noisy discussions surged in like a tide.
"Ah? Hexi pig? What kind of pig is this? Why did it become extinct?" someone asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"If it's extinct, doesn't it mean it's gone forever? But how come it's reappearing now..."
Another person followed up with a question.
"That's amazing! If that's true, doesn't that mean we have a whole new breed of pig to study and breed?"
Some researchers were so excited that they could not express it in words.
"But can an extinct pig species really be revived? How did this happen?"
Someone asked in confusion.
"..."
The people in the audience looked at each other with astonishment on their faces, and whispered about something among themselves!
Many people on the rostrum were so shocked by what Gu Chang said that they stood up from their seats!
"Hexi pig?"
An old professor wearing glasses adjusted the frames of his glasses and muttered in disbelief.
"It is actually a large pig among the Hexi pigs! Decades ago, I conducted in-depth research on it. It is an extremely excellent pig breed. It's a pity that it suddenly disappeared and became extinct in the world for some reason..."
Another professor was equally excited and full of emotion.
"..."
"Hexi pig?"
Kurosuke Satokawa's face was filled with astonishment, and his heart was full of doubts and confusion!
It is incredible that this pig breed, which has disappeared for decades, can reappear in the world!
His face was sometimes gloomy and sometimes bright and clear, as if he was going through a fierce struggle and thinking in his heart.
Just when everyone fell silent, a representative from a foreign pig farming company suddenly spoke up.
"So, I would like to ask, does the extinction of the Hexi pig mean that it has been eliminated by the times? And now that it has reappeared in the world, what kind of economic benefits and scientific research value can it bring?"
As soon as the voice fell, the audience was in an uproar.
Yes, this is the core of the problem!
For these capitalists, whether the pig breed is extinct is not the point!
Only when it has sufficiently attractive benefits will it attract people's attention.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were once again focused on Gu Chang, expecting him to give a satisfactory answer.
Gu Chang smiled and calmly welcomed everyone's scrutiny, then said slowly: "Everyone, this Hexi pig is undoubtedly a purebred pig!"
He paused and continued, "I believe everyone knows that the original breed pigs are the foundation of breeding pigs."
"Their excellent genetic characteristics have been preserved after hundreds or even thousands of years of selection!"
"It can be said that every excellent original breed pig is a valuable genetic treasure, carrying the hope and future of modern pig breeding!"
Immediately afterwards, Gu Chang changed the subject and led the topic to the high-quality genes contained in Hexi pigs.
"And in the gene pool of the Hexi pig, there are many remarkable and excellent genes hidden."
"These genes not only give Hexi pigs unique growth advantages, but are also likely to become a key factor in promoting the development of the entire pig farming industry."
Finally, Gu Chang mentioned the origin of the name of Hexi pig and the historical and cultural background behind it: "Hexi pigs are named so because they are produced in the Hexi region of Gansu."
"As we all know, the Hexi Corridor has been an important passage of the 'Silk Road' since ancient times, and it is also one of my country's famous agricultural bases."
"The unique natural environment and long-standing farming tradition here have produced countless high-quality agricultural and livestock products, and Hexi pigs are the best among them."
"The climate here is extremely harsh, with little rain and a large temperature difference between day and night. It is often attacked by sandstorms, and the sun is strong and evaporates quickly."
"This unique natural ecological environment makes Hexi pigs significantly different from breed pigs in other parts of Gansu."
"In this production area, in addition to common crops, people also widely grow various fodder crops such as beets, carrots, alfalfa, sweet clover and arrowroot peas."
"These rich and diverse plant resources not only provide food sources for local residents, but also provide sufficient food for Hexi pigs."
"It is precisely because of this special diet and growth environment that Hexi pigs have gradually developed a series of unique characteristics."
"They can tolerate rough feed and have a very high feed utilization rate. They also have strong adaptability and can cope with both severe cold and extreme heat. They are also very fertile and have a large number of offspring... These excellent qualities have undoubtedly become excellent hybrid advantage genes."
"It is particularly worth mentioning that our Fule Pig Farm, as the Qinling pig breeding base, has always been committed to exploring and making full use of the excellent genes of Chinese native pig breeds."
"Here, we will make every effort to build a large-scale original pig protection and breeding base, and strive to become China's leading original pig conservation center in the future..."
"Let me interrupt!"
Kurosuke Satokawa suddenly shouted loudly.
Everyone was shocked and turned their eyes to him. Satokawa Kurosuke continued arrogantly, "From what I know, your Fule pig farm is not very large."
"Apart from the common breeds of Rongchang pig, Taihu pig and Licha black pig, plus the Hexi pig that just appeared today, there don't seem to be many local pig breeds!"
"With such conditions, how dare you claim to become China's largest purebred pig breeding and protection base? It's simply a foolish dream!"
Satokawa Kurosuke raised his lips slightly, revealing a disdainful smile, "To tell you the truth, compared with the Huile pig farm we invested in, your current strength is nothing!"
Having said this, Satokawa Kurosuke paused for a moment, but quickly regained his previous aggressive momentum.
"Today you only showed us a species of Hexi pig that has become extinct. Admittedly, this did surprise us a little. But this alone is far from enough! After all, the chips are too few!"
Satokawa Kurosuke stared at Gu Chang closely, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes, as if he could penetrate the other's heart.
"I can tell you very clearly now that in the future, the Fule pig farm funded by us will have at least 20 kinds of purebred pigs from home and abroad! Only then will we be truly a giant in the industry!"
"What do you have to compare with us?"
Satokawa Kurosuke looked at Gu Chang with a mocking expression, his eyes flashing with undisguised pride.
"Huh! I see. Is this what you call your 'secret weapon'? I have to say, it is indeed quite amazing, but unfortunately, that's all it is..."
Satokawa Kurosuke thought to himself, with a hint of contempt and disdain on his face.
The people in the audience couldn't help but feel a tightness in their hearts!
This damn Japanese is so arrogant and conceited, he is simply talking nonsense!
Gu Chang stared quietly at the arrogant and domineering appearance of Satokawa Kurosuke, his mouth corners slightly raised and he shook his head.
However, in the next moment, the originally still PPT on the huge screen suddenly began to flip rapidly!
Then, one photo after another of various pig breeds appeared before everyone's eyes like magic!
Including the Hexi pig that was originally displayed, there are a total of 5 types of pigs!
"So, are five extinct pig species enough?"
Gu Chang's voice was as calm as water, but it set off a huge wave in the entire venue...
