Chapter 351: The Special Research Institute
[Congratulations! You have reached a milestone of 30 million followers on your online promotion, and you have been rewarded with a Special Farm Research Institute Transformation Scroll!]
The word 'Research Institute' immediately caught Zhang Lin's attention.
It is common knowledge that in any industry, research institutes hold a sacred and esteemed position.
In many cases, research institutes are the core of a particular industry.
First, research institutes facilitate scientific innovation. Regardless of the industry, they serve as vital venues for cutting-edge scientific research.
Second, they can produce new research outcomes. Often, a company's innovation or leap into a new era is a result of new products developed in their research institutes.
Even internet companies build research institutes to foster software development.
However, it is rare to see dedicated research institutes in agricultural companies.
Nevertheless, the role of agricultural research institutes is still significant.
Agricultural research institutes play a crucial role in various aspects.
For instance, in crop breeding, they can develop high-yielding, disease-resistant, and stress-tolerant crop varieties.
Through techniques like hybridization, they can breed wheat varieties with higher yields or corn varieties better adapted to drought conditions, effectively increasing food production and ensuring food security.
In the realm of planting technology research and development, agricultural research institutes can pioneer advanced planting techniques, including precision irrigation, rational fertilization, and optimized planting density. For example, the development of drip irrigation technology allows for precise water control, improving water resource utilization and reducing waste.
Naturally, these are just some of the conventional roles of agricultural research institutes.
The most significant role of agricultural research institutes lies in the research and development of special crops, aiming for innovation and species advancement.
For instance, the unique Sunshine Rose that Ma Jun is currently researching for Li Yuan Farm, as instructed by Zhang Lin, is a prime example.
Currently, Li Yuan Farm does not have its own research institute, and Ma Jun's current research facility is the only one available.
Moreover, the research institute produced by the game system is undoubtedly extraordinary.
Zhang Lin immediately checked the game system, and as expected, he found a new transformation scroll.
It was the Special Agricultural Research Institute Transformation Scroll.
[Special Agricultural Research Institute Transformation Scroll: Quality 2]
[This is a special transformation scroll for an agricultural research institute. By using this scroll, you can construct a unique agricultural research institute!
Special Effects: 1. Designated Project Research, Research Inspiration +2. 2. Research State +2 (0/1) 2. Research Speed for Deciphering Game Products +2. 3. Open Recruitment for Advanced Research Personnel. 4. Research Crop Mutation Probability 5%.
Conditions: 1. 3000 Mu of Dedicated Approved Land. 2. 2.1 Billion Funds.]
After reading the details of the transformation scroll, Zhang Lin's eyes lit up instantly. It was indeed not an ordinary research institute. Although it required 2.1 billion funds, the attributes alone made it worth the investment.
Designated Project Research likely refers to the ability to specify a particular subject for research.
Similar to the unique Sunshine Rose that Ma Jun is currently researching, once the research is complete, it can be cultivated in harsh environments, even in deserts.
However, with only Ma Jun conducting the research, the progress is relatively slow. Even with the addition of Chen Xinke, it's like a drop in the ocean.
But now, with the successful construction of the research institute, they can recruit advanced research personnel.
These recruited talents can assist Ma Jun in his research endeavors. In any industry, advanced research institutes often face challenges in recruiting the best talent.
Crucially, the game system guarantees 100% employee loyalty, ensuring that the research institute's operations and product information remain confidential.
For realism, it is unlikely that all employees of the research institute would be recruited solely from within the game system.
Therefore, Zhang Lin plans to recruit several key personnel as the core team and hire the remaining research staff and workers externally. After all, there are many competent researchers available in the market.
Especially for those who have studied hard and graduated, as long as the salary is high enough, they can be easily recruited.
So, as long as there are enough senior researchers, it's not a problem for this research institute to eventually become the best private research institute in the country.
In addition, there are also attributes such as +2 Research Inspiration and +2 Research State.
This is the most impressive part.
Scientific research sometimes relies on inspiration and research state. Sufficient inspiration can keep the research going, making it easier to break through research bottlenecks, and a good research state can maintain high efficiency.
Even if these attributes can only be assigned to one research project, and until that designated project is completed, there's no way to assign another project.
But even this is quite astonishing.
Moreover, there's an attribute that increases the speed of deciphering game products by +2.
The future research direction of this researcher will definitely be focused on game products, so this attribute is like adding a huge buff.
The last attribute is a 5% mutation rate for research products, which should be similar to the situation of the rainbow-colored fields.
The rainbow-colored fields were a result of crop color mutations.
However, this 5% mutation attribute should be a different kind of mutation.
Currently, there's no way to research it, and he doesn't know what the situation is.
But regardless, with the existence of this research institute, it can better transport many game elements and promote them in reality.
In the future, even without the game system, if he were to pass away, with this research institute, Li Yuan Farm can still develop."
Naturally, if Li Yuan Farm has this research institute, even if his descendants were to ruin the farm, there's no way to deal with such a wasteful thing.
At that time, he would already be turned into yellow soil, and there's nothing he could do about it.
Now, with these two restrictions, 2.1 billion funds can be easily obtained by the farm.
However, the 3000 Mu of dedicated approved land made him slightly frown.
Obviously, this isn't something that can be achieved by simply acquiring 3000 Mu of land.
Therefore, after County Magistrate Liu and Liu Shan sat down, Zhong Miaoying poured a cup of tea for each of them, and then he turned to Lei Xiaojun and asked, "President Lei, your Rice Corporation has built several product research institutes. Do these research institutes require special approval for their land use?"
This question caused Lei Xiaojun to pause, and County Magistrate Liu and Liu Shan instinctively looked at Zhang Lin. They were directly attracted by this topic.
After a moment, Lei Xiaojun asked in surprise, "President Zhang, why are you suddenly asking about research institute land approval? Is Li Yuan Farm planning to build a research institute?"
As he spoke, his gaze towards Zhang Lin held a hint of respect.
He had researched Li Yuan Farm and knew that its development from nothing to this industry required a strong emphasis on research. Otherwise, those products wouldn't have emerged.
Now, President Zhang was suddenly inquiring about research institute land approval, which was probably because, as he had guessed, they wanted to build a research institute.
In the development of an industry, building a research institute is an essential step.
With a research institute, it's easier to decipher and utilize the research of competitors, and with the institute, innovation can surpass other competitors.
For a company to thrive and develop in the long term, its products need to constantly improve, and all of this relies on the research and innovation of the institute.
Even in the construction industry, real estate companies now have research institutes to study various building materials.
However, when companies are developing, those that build research institutes early on are in the minority.
Ershi Xingchen has a leading advantage in agriculture, and this is without them having built a research institute. If they were to build one, what would happen?
