Recommending Talent

Luo'an Province an area of 260,000 square kilometers, and the border control of some border provinces is limited, so it also suffered from the disaster of a sudden outbreak of genetically modified plants.

The spread of seeds by organisms such as birds also exists.

The vast area affected will likely make Scarlet Alliance State a considerable amount of time to quell the biological catastrophe.

However, this disaster is not entirely negative; many agricultural research institutes have discovered some genetically modified crops with unexpectedly superior varieties.

This situation is not unusual; any war brings destruction, but war can also bring unimaginable rapid development to industries such as manufacturing and medicine, and in this case, it has benefited agriculture.

Zhang Xuezhou stayed at the Dongshan Management Office for five days, allowing many people to visit and investigate. When he returned to Western Capital City, he even sat in on a series of meetings.

Thanks to advanced network technology, this sequence meeting brought together three generations—old, middle-aged, and young—and also included remote participation from sequence members and alternate members in Luo'an Province.

Ren Yisheng, Zhang Xuezhou, and others promised to guarantee Huang Daoxian's defeat. Zhu Liangping, who was affected by Huang Daoxian, recovered from his illness and returned to normal. Genetically modified crops in various places grew wildly and then stopped changing. Some surveillance videos corroborated this. Many things, both good and bad, were constantly being set in motion at this meeting.

"In eradicating this biological disaster, we must adhere to two principles..."

Zhang Xuezhou sat in the head seat among the younger generation of attendees, his gaze fixed straight ahead, his posture extremely upright.

Although most things are predictable and are just rehashing old ideas, the necessary procedures must still be followed.

"The R33 catalyst has been successfully produced in small-scale trials. When will you retrieve the formula for the R34 catalyst?"

Zuo Teng sat two seats next to Zhang Xuezhou and only delivered good news when the meeting ended.

Like Zhang Xuezhou, Zuo Teng did not relax despite the stabilization following the disaster.

Of course, Zuo Teng couldn't be happy even if he wanted to, since Zuo Quan had passed away less than ten days ago.

Perhaps driven by a sense of shame, or perhaps due to a significant shock, Zuo Teng and Zuo Denggao overcame their past conflicts and collaborated on related research, ultimately leading to the successful small-scale trial production of R33 catalyst.

Small doses are not a problem. After all, only Zhang Xuezhou, Zuo Teng, and Zuo Denggao need R33 catalyst right now. These catalysts can last for two years, even if you eat them like salt. When used with blood serum, there is almost no need to worry about consumption.

"R34 catalyst is a bit tricky!"

Zhang Xuezhou glanced at Chimmon Hagrid, who was joining in the fun on the screen.

By exploiting the nearly dead Chimon Haig, Zuo Teng and the others managed to obtain an R33 catalyst formula, making the next stage of catalyst production extremely difficult.

Only when there is a genuine need for drugs that can effectively prolong life, or a need to supply Qimeng Haige with truly useful products, or when there is sufficient demand for Qimeng Haige, will Qimeng Haige be able to deliver higher-level catalysts.

"He spits at me whenever he sees me now. I guess I have no hope with him anymore, so I can only cooperate with the catalyst research!"

"No rush, let's all enter the Fourth Sequence first!"

Zuo Teng was undoubtedly eager and showed a strong desire for the power of the sequence.

Zhang Xuezhou waved his hand, indicating that things couldn't be rushed and that everyone could hone their Gene Fighting Technique to avoid being too eager for quick success and making it difficult to reach the Sixth Sequence.

"With R34 and R35, my life should be completely transformed," Zuo Teng said, clenching his fist.

"Entering the Seventh Sequence requires sufficient R36 catalyst for protection," Zhang Xuezhou said. "If you want a complete reversal, you also need to conduct some research and preparation on the R37 catalyst, which Qimeng Haige has never developed, instead of simply copying and producing one and considering it done!"

Zuo Teng was envisioning how to enter the Sixth Sequence, then hone his skills, and finally seek another opportunity to break through to the Seventh Sequence.

In Zhang Xuezhou's plan, Zuo Teng felt that Zhang Xuezhou didn't take his life goals seriously at all.

This forced Zuo Teng to adjust his plans again after enduring repeated mental stimulation.

"As long as you lead the way, I promise I won't fall behind!"

Zuo Teng reluctantly agreed.

Even the most hardworking younger generation cannot compete with the middle-aged and elderly who have been developing for decades.

The huge gap cannot be bridged simply by hard work, but Zuo Teng can see Zhang Xuezhou collaborating with these uncles and grandfathers.

Moreover, it wasn't just Zhang Xuezhou who got involved; Ren Anran, who was very close to Zhang Xuezhou, also gradually became involved, and even Zhang Manqian gradually came into the limelight.

Most people are blind to what's right in front of them, Zuo Teng is no exception.

He used to think that Zhang Xuezhou was just like that, at most he had some crooked ways to please some people, published some strange papers, and was good at shooting. But people's thinking changes after they turn thirty, especially after Zuo Jin Jin's repeated instructions before his death had a huge impact.

Zuo Teng examined himself time and time again, and he also examined Zhang Xuezhou time and time again.

You can't see anything in Zhang Xuezhou, but Zuo Teng can see the differences between Ren Anran and others and himself.

These are some of the most rare exceptions among the younger generation.

Zuo Teng also wanted to be one of these special cases.

He put aside his past arrogance and lowered his head.

"What do you mean, 'lead'? I'm seriously ill, I could pass away at any time. I didn't even dare to agree to An Ran. You expect me to carry you? You should be working harder to help me out, that's the important thing. I'm earnestly begging for your help!"

Compared to Zuo Teng's humbly bowing his head, Zuo Teng realized that Zhang Xuezhou had no shame at all.

He felt that the words he had gone through so much trouble to say were completely unrelated to Zhang Xuezhou.

Originally, it was he who asked Zhang Xuezhou, but later it became Zhang Xuezhou asking Zuo Teng for help. When the other party asked for help, he did so openly and without any attempt to hide it.

"Cooperation and mutual benefit!"

Zuo Teng had no choice but to nod and agree.

"Speaking of which, your research institute has gained the help of a great expert. He guided us in our R33 catalyst research. If you can persuade him to help, or at least get him to show a little more interest in catalyst research, we might be able to create even more advanced gene catalysts in the future without relying on Chimmon Hagrid!"

As if remembering something, Zuo Teng added a sentence when Zhang Xuezhou was about to board the aircraft.

You mean Luo Burang?

"Right!"

Zhang Xuezhou asked a question, Zuo Teng quickly nodded.

Zuo Denggao's laboratory spent three months replicating the R32 catalyst, while the more challenging R33 catalyst was researched in less than a month.

The R33 catalyst, however, only has three days of high-speed driving time.

Perhaps feeling that Zuo Denggao was causing trouble every day by going to the B13 Research Institute, Luo made him read through the relevant materials for R32 and R33 and also made some corrections for Zuo Denggao.

These revisions contained errors and unreasonable points, but they were mostly effective.

Based on repeated reasoning and testing by researchers in Zuo Denggao's laboratory, they have significantly accelerated the generation time of this small-dose R33 catalyst.

Zuo Teng felt that Luo Burang, a former genius, was more qualified than himself to become a researcher driving the development of catalysts.

"I'm not shirking my research responsibilities; I'm recommending talented individuals!"

Seemingly worried that Zhang Xuezhou might be dissatisfied, Zuo Teng couldn't help but offer an explanation.

This made Zhang Xuezhou shake his head.

Not to mention that Zuo Teng's research ability is inferior to Luo Burang's, Zhang Xuezhou believes that under the same conditions, there are not many people who surpass Luo Burang's research ability.

Luo Burang was particularly adept at theoretical research, possessing sufficient reasoning ability even without physical objects.

In fields where others have already cultivated expertise, Luo Burang's participation in research wouldn't offer much of an advantage. However, when it comes to new fields or research starting simultaneously, Luo Burang's research advantages would leave many self-proclaimed senior researchers in despair.

Luo has been back in China for some time now, and Zhang Xuezhou is only now able to return to North Rehe to see him.
