330: Research experiments from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences
In the live stream, Su Yu cleared his throat.
Facing requests from countless industry leaders, international superstars, and tech giants, he finally shook his head gently and slowly spoke.
"Thank you, Brothers, for your continuous support, and thank you, everyone, for your kind appreciation!"
"The original intention of our first global live stream was to let everyone enjoy and have fun."
"As for these two things, I actually never had any intention of selling them."
These three short sentences instantly silenced the live stream.
No intention of selling?!
Wouldn't it be a waste if such useful things weren't popularized among the public?!
It should be known that these two items are truly practical tools for daily use, unlike the mechs and intelligent AIs Su Yu previously developed, which only served individuals.
Could it be that everyone's offers were too low, making Su Yu feel that they weren't truly sincere in wanting them?
The giant moguls all began to ponder in their hearts.
But pricing is something that's discussed and negotiated slowly; business isn't a one-and-done deal.
Should they add more?
Some impatient moguls began to raise their bids again, offering various promises and benefits.
Su Yu was speechless at the sight.
"Everyone might have misunderstood."
"What I said earlier wasn't because your offers were too low, or that I was unwilling to sell these technologies."
"As a China citizen, I am very grateful to Central Mother for nurturing and protecting us over the years. I believe that handing over technology to the country that raised us should be a source of pride in every China person's heart."
"Furthermore, the super-yield species relates to the country's import and export trade, as well as the improvement of average yield, so I really cannot provide it directly to everyone."
"If everyone is truly interested in the super-yield seeds, you can follow up by engaging in trade talks with China. I believe China would be very happy to share this transaction with everyone."
Su Yu didn't say.
The super-yield watermelon was developed by him through seed gene technology, and its advantages are indeed obvious. It has huge yields, is easy to cultivate, only requires sufficient nutrients, and can even bear abundant fruit easily without extra processing.
Even novice growers can easily succeed.
But despite this, it is not a perfect product!
The super-yield seed has one major problem: it is a one-time, non-GMO seed.
This means that although the watermelon grown from the super-yield seed is delicious and healthy, it is a one-time plant.
It has no seeds, cannot reproduce, and a single vine can only flower and bear fruit once in its lifetime.
If anyone tries to cultivate the super-yield watermelon on their own, it is absolutely impossible for it to reproduce.
Moreover, the possibility of continuously obtaining watermelon from just one seed does not exist.
The life of the watermelon is short, but it fully displays its splendor!
To obtain seeds, one can only rely on Su Yu's production.
This is also why he wasn't worried that someone would have ulterior motives after the watermelon was displayed in the live stream. Because apart from him, no one else could produce it again.
"We support you, Streamer! This thing is your research achievement, after all. Naturally, you can give it to whoever you want!"
"Exactly, exactly, no one should morally blackmail the Streamer. Let me state first! I am not a China person, but I support the Streamer's patriotic behavior! If a person doesn't even love their own country, how can they love their fans?"
"Support Brother Su in sharing the technology with the country! The country will definitely not let the Streamer suffer a loss."
"This is a truly positive energy Streamer, okay? Those still shouting in the live stream can shut up!"
"Alas, what a pity! Mr. Su is not a Japan person. How great it would be if such a talent could be used by us."
"You devil upstairs, what are you dreaming about!"
...After clarifying everything, Su Yu finally felt a sense of relief.
The number of online viewers in the live stream had dropped from a peak of 300 million to less than 80 million now!
But these remaining 80 million were all loyal fans who truly recognized his live stream.
He glanced at the time; today's live stream had lasted a full fifteen hours. Although it didn't break his previous record of challenging seventy-two hours without going offline, Su Yu had opportunities to rest during those seventy-two hours.
Today's first global broadcast, however, went full intensity from the start. Not to mention the viewers, even Su Yu himself was exhausted.
After greeting the audience, Su Yu finally closed the live stream.
However, while the audience could rest, he could not.
The residential area below him was filled with the fragrance of fruits!
This was the commotion he had insisted on making earlier by continuing his experiments. Although the Patrol Guys from the community property management helped him clean up, he ultimately still needed to resolve it himself.
Tens of thousands of catties of watermelon, and dense watermelon vines everywhere—Su Yu estimated it would definitely take at least a day or two to sort out.
Three days later.
Su Yu, sweating profusely, saw off the Patrol Guy from the residential area, like a well-behaved child who had done something wrong.
"I'm really sorry, you guys have truly worked hard these past few days. You had to help pick watermelon and also clean up the vines throughout the entire community. I've caused you trouble!"
The Patrol Guy patted his chest and raised his head.
"Mr. Su, these are all things we should do. Protecting you, ah, no, maintaining the safety of the entire community and dealing with these unexpectedly grown vines are all our responsibilities."
"What's more, you gave all those watermelons to us for free. We're the ones who benefited from you."
"You know, it's already late October, and watermelon is hard to find."
In three days, with the assistance of the Patrol Guys, Su Yu finally cleaned up the mess he had created.
For this, he also compensated the surrounding property owners who were affected by this incident for their economic losses.
"Alright, Mr. Su. Since you already know our identities, next time before we conduct an experiment, remember to notify us in advance. Or we can find a place for you."
"Don't worry, there definitely won't be a next time!"
After seeing off the Patrol Guy, Su Yu returned to his yard.
At this moment, the small yard had already returned to its original clean and tidy state.
For three days, Su Yu did not go live again, but on the evening after he went offline, he received a phone invitation from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.
The person who invited him was the current Academician of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and also Yuan Lao's best friend.
Earlier in the live stream, he had rejected foreign tycoons' offers to buy at the suggestion of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, which greatly increased the goodwill of everyone in the Academy of Agricultural Sciences towards Su Yu.
And the Academy of Agricultural Sciences was currently conducting an experimental research that had encountered a bottleneck.
At this time, a capable and patriotic young man appeared!
Su Yu naturally became their target for invitation.
