Chapter 846 (1/2)

On September 28th, oil prices, which continued to rise, reached the highest level of the month, closing at US $71 a barrel, more than double that of a year ago. The pressure on the global economy caused by high oil prices is also seen in the financial report of future Renzhong.

Affected by the rise in costs, the profits of several projects of Renren Heavy Industry Co., Ltd. decreased by 13% compared with the same period last quarter. Futureman and futureman mining have also been affected by a small margin. Futurist's tourism profit is the same as that of last quarter. The only thing that keeps rising is futureman technology.

As long as the technology is advanced, the Internet is like an endless gold mine.

The organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) issued a statement on the same day that OPEC member states will hold an informal meeting in Algeria in October to discuss moderate production increase and maintain the stability of the oil market. Only when the oil price is stable in a relatively reasonable range can the interests of these oil producing countries be maximized.

If the global economy is depressed by oil prices, although they can make a lot of money in a short period of time, then the demand for oil will shrink and their life will become difficult.

However, the announcement did not contain rising oil prices.

Elon Musk, the general manager of traz, once said: petroleum is such a precious chemical raw material, how can you burn it?

the level of petrochemical industry is one of the standards to measure the development level of a country's basic industry, and ethylene production is a sign to measure the development level of a country's petrochemical industry. The fuel function is only one of the most terminal functions of oil. Otherwise, why not use gasoline to measure the development level of national basic industry?

Including ethylene, propylene, butadiene, benzene, toluene, xylene as the representative of the basic chemical raw materials, are from the petroleum body!

High oil prices are a real problem for emerging economies.

However, for Jiang Chen, who has the technology of the whole 22nd century, the trouble is not as big as expected.

Not enough oil? Then use something else instead!

At this moment, in the future human biology laboratory, Jiang Chen walked into the culture zone with Tao Ming, CEO of the branch company.

”This way, please.”

Tao Ming made a gesture of invitation and respectfully opened the door for Jiang Chen.

The door opened and the fresh air came.

The round shed is covered with six grid shaped graphene plates, and below is a test field composed of separate culture tanks. In these culture tanks, there are many plants with the shape of palm trees.

More than a dozen researchers around the culture tank, some responsible for recording data, some debugging experimental equipment, and others checking the growth of plants.

When Jiang Chen and the director of the research institute came in, the researcher who was leading the experimental team immediately came forward with a bright eye.

The white man in a white coat looked tall and thin, about fifty years old.

”This is Mr. Jiang Chen, chairman of our group.” Tao Ming said with a smile as he approached the researcher, and then led to Jiang Chen beside him.

”Nice to meet you, Mr. Jiang Chen. I've heard a lot about you.” Sullivan grinned and showed his white teeth. He shook Jiang Chen's hand and said.

Then Tao Ming introduced professor Sullivan to Jiang Chen.

”This is Professor bill Sullivan from MIT. His research field is bioengineering and genetic technology. His main research direction is petroleum plants. He has an authoritative position in the research of modified petroleum grass.”

”Nice to meet you, too, Professor Sullivan. Thanks for your participation, our research project has made a great progress. ” Holding Professor Sullivan's hand back, Jiang Chen said with a smile.

”No, no, no, I should thank you.” After he released his hand, Sullivan shook his head seriously, looked at Jiang Chen and said, ”the DNA code you provided is very interesting. After seeing the information, several problems that originally troubled me were solved immediately. Can I know who invented the code? If it's convenient, I hope to communicate with him. ”

”Well, it's a little difficult. For various reasons, he can't come here for the time being.” Jiang Chen casually fooled the issue in the past, and then switched off the topic, ”don't say that. How is the research progress? Can you show it to me? ”
