Chapter 603: Powerful Alliance
Pah
A lump of subtly colored gelatinous substance was scooped onto the plate, which looked unappetizing.
However, after opening the nutrition pack, sprinkling some powder on it, and scooping a mouthful into my mouth with a spoon, I surprisingly found that I could eat it.
The psychological shadow brought by the previous pancake was too great, and the appearance of the cake before led to very low psychological expectations.
But after adding the nutrient pack that can be used for seasoning, this pot of food that looks terrible becomes eatable.
"The ingredients have been analyzed and found to be mainly starch, which is not a problem. The nutrition package is also quite rich, and different specifications are configured according to different situations. If someone uses this to make pre-made fast food in the future, the cost will be quite low. A series of snacks, staple foods, and even agricultural and sideline products can be developed around it."
The man in the white coat who tasted the dish himself sighed.
"Umbrella, it's really amazing..."
Hunger is a feeling that is far away from many people, but in fact, there are still a large number of people around the world who are on the brink of life and death because of hunger at all times.
Starving to death is not a very distant topic...
Is there not enough food?
Not at all!
To put it bluntly, it’s all man-made…
"Publish the paper, and the money will be returned. It's a bit hot to handle."
The researcher under him opened his mouth after hearing this, but said nothing.
Taking money to publish papers or making certain modifications to papers is also a common practice in this industry.
Nutrition.
The pros and cons of moderate drinking, animal oil and vegetable oil, GMO and non-GMO, various debates, various dialectics, various papers, too many of them appeared under the guidance of capital.
To put it bluntly, it’s all business.
This time, someone actually secretly funded various laboratories and wanted to attack Umbrella's synthetic starch.
As for where the funds come from, you can guess it easily.
It must be the four major grain traders!
Umbrella's move is clearly intended to cut off their roots, which will have a huge impact on them.
Even though Umbrella is very powerful, it certainly doesn't dare to target anything head-on.
But small actions in secret are inevitable.
And the message that was passed on also said that there is no need to lie and put false things on it, just point out the shortcomings directly!
Not to mention artificial ones, even naturally grown food, which one is without flaws?
Even an ordinary egg yolk can be said to have high cholesterol!
It can be said that white rice is not good for diabetics.
So it's quite easy to find faults?
Everything has two sides. It's easy to make money if you just find the existing shortcomings and magnify them.
But this time, their laboratory still hesitated.
Forget it, there is no end to making money...
" I'm going to start a new research topic, which is to look at the gourmetization of synthetic starch and see if it can be made more delicious through subsequent processing."
"clear……"
…
The four major grain traders met again for Umbrella's supply this time, and they all seemed a little troubled.
“Some labs said no.”
"It's okay. It's normal not to dare to offend Umbrella. If it doesn't touch our interests, we don't want to offend. The organization's business is the organization's business, and our unilateral interests also need to be maintained."
"As long as it solves the problem of food and clothing, the impact on us is actually limited, but we are afraid that other business sectors will also rush in."
"The remaining labs still need to set a few routes to lead the pace. We can't really confront them head-on."
"Well, there was a classic marketing case in the East before. There was a van that sold very well, and the data in all aspects was very strong. Other competitors couldn't beat it, so they donated a batch to funeral homes, and sales have plummeted since then."
"That's exactly how it should be..."
…
Since Umbrella distributed a large number of samples at the dock, many of them naturally ended up in various laboratories.
Started to analyze, research, and publish various papers and reviews.
There are all kinds of reviews, some in professional journals and some directly on the official website.
And not every laboratory can maintain its bottom line.
There are all kinds of opinions about this new thing from Umbrella!
Of course, the mainstream is still praise.
Eliminate hunger!
What a great thing!
Isn't it crazy to confront him head-on?
"Umbrella has really taken the entire human civilization a big step forward this time!"
“What a wonderful invention it is that there will be no more hunger in the world .”
“Although it tastes bad, it can fill your stomach.”
“…”
But among the many praises, there will naturally be people who are paid to do things and direct these to a new topic.
Disgusting!
And the side effects of long-term use on the human body!
The main purpose is to create a situation where people still eat natural staple foods when they have the chance to do so, and synthetic foods are only used in emergencies.
For example, an institution that mainly studies environmental protection published an article in Science:
"This invention of Umbrella is indeed epoch-making and has advanced the progress of mankind. It not only solves the problem of hunger, but also plays a very important role in environmental protection, global warming and carbon emissions."
As he spoke, he first came up with some relevant conceptual diagrams and calculation formulas, showing how much emissions could be reduced once all thermal power plants were installed, achieving perfect carbon neutrality.
But after listing a lot of boring data that ordinary people don’t have the patience to read, their most critical intentions were revealed in the end.
"But it should be noted that these foods are mainly made from factory waste gas. Although the equipment itself is very advanced and Umbrella has thought of many ways, it is still questionable whether it can completely eliminate all other toxins in the waste gas. However, I think if you can afford to eat ordinary staple foods, no normal person would try food made from industrial residues, right?"
The last question was a rhetorical question, not an affirmation, nor was it a rumor.
But it vaguely equates synthetic carbohydrates with 'industrial residues'!
Many people take a look at it and think, yes, this thing is made from waste gas, it really is industrial residue.
This can make people feel a little queasy and nauseous psychologically.
Just like the Umbrella sewage treatment plant, with Ohnogi next to it, how many people had the courage to scoop up water from the filter and drink it?
After a portable toilet has been used a few times, even if it is cleaned very well, you will probably feel uncomfortable using it to hold food.
A large number of similar rhythms are constantly pushing synthetic starch in this direction, causing people's disgust.
At least for ordinary people, if they can eat rice, they probably won't choose this kind of thing.
For most people, food is indeed not something that is difficult to obtain.
Originally, this would not have had much impact on Umbrella, as there were too many ways to make money. If South Korea had not encountered problems this time, they would have been too lazy to take out the money.
But generally speaking, Umbrella doesn't like others putting accusations on its head.
Therefore, the official also directly issued some synthesis formula diagrams and guidance opinions.
"This is the mixed application of synthetic carbohydrates in feed that we have researched, but our company does not have so much energy to do this. We only sell related equipment and supporting solutions..."
Although Umbrella seems to be very large, its size is actually limited if compared with the national level. There are too many other areas that require energy, and it really doesn't have much energy to devote to the feed.
But the key is that Umbrella has no intention of doing so, but a certain big country does.
Thermal power stations, I have a lot of them here!
In fact, after Umbrella's official announcement, a certain major country has already set its sights on this thing, which is both environmentally friendly and can solve food security problems.
I just thought that Umbrella would run this money-making business on their own, and they were just trying to contact Wang Yi, who was pretending to be Lin Shiqin, to see if they could buy some back at any price.
But who would have thought that the synthesis formula and the machine would be sold together.
Can it be made into feed? Is there such a good thing?
If Umbrella were to tinker with these machines on their own, it would actually take a lot of time and effort just to roll them out.
But after they simply sold the machines to the infrastructure maniacs, they could naturally let the world feel what speed and efficiency are...
