I have never been afraid to project the worst ill will on capitalists, but I have never doubted their intelligence. Once upon a time, there was a company that allegedly wanted to use genetically modified food to eliminate half of China's population, so that the Chinese would have no descendants in three generations. The company is called Monsanto.
At the same time, there is a company that is said to want to use patent rights to firmly control Chinese farmers and make huge profits by monopolizing the seed market.
Coincidentally, this company is also called Monsanto.
This time the boss of Monsanto was extremely anxious. Both "tasks" are so difficult, how can you make money and kill people at the same time?
Dilemma
If we want to use "genetic weapons" to exterminate the Chinese people, then we should obviously let go of patents and dump them at a loss so that more Chinese people can eat genetically modified foods. In this way To achieve the goal faster. Are you right? If the goal is to make money as a monopoly, then obviously we cannot sell products that cause cancer and make people infertile. Think about it, in a market that has finally been monopolized, if the number of consumers decreases from generation to generation, then whose money will be made in the future?
For Monsanto to be so big, the boss should be a little smart. Obviously, it is impossible to set such two mutually exclusive goals. You think so? This classmate who loves to watch the news said that the Sanlu Company’s sale of melamine milk powder is both making money and killing people!
Yes, it seems to make sense...but wait!
This example just proves that "making money" and "killing life" cannot be achieved at the same time! You see: if something goes wrong with melamine, Sanlu will go out of business and will never be able to make money again; if something goes wrong with melamine, then Sanlu will not be harmed.
Is this the truth?
Well, Monsanto’s boss clenched his fist: Since it is impossible to achieve wealth and death at the same time, let’s do one of them first!
First kill!
"Genetic weapons", as soon as you hear the name, it sounds very advanced. At first glance, it is an evil tool invented by US imperialism to kill all the sperm of Chinese men. And glyphosate! Cui Yongyuan's documentary has said that glyphosate is extremely effective in causing cancer, and it can definitely be used to exterminate the population.
First put the genetic weapon into the corn. You only need to eat Monsanto’s corn. Are you afraid that you will not be attacked?
Wait! It doesn't seem to work...
The stomachs of these Chinese people seem to be equipped with an ancient and mysterious defense system: a soak of gastric acid and a stir of digestive enzymes can dismantle the domineering genetic weapons. There are four types of ATCG components.
This is exactly the same as the parts after digestion and disassembly of other genes, and it is impossible to tell them apart! Before this "gene missile" could take effect, it was digested into a pile of "scrap" in the human stomach? !
Nah, when you go back, you fired the guys who developed genetic weapons. The weapons that you spent billions of dollars to develop cannot even evade the digestive defense system of ordinary people. It’s a waste!
We can’t use glyphosate anymore! Biocidal herbicides can destroy all green plants. Are you afraid that you, the Chinese, will not fall prey to it?
Wait! It doesn’t seem to work...
Glyphosate can kill plants by destroying their chlorophyll. As long as you live on chlorophyll, you will die if you encounter it. But the Chinese are yellow people! Chinese people don’t have chlorophyll in their bodies! Americans, Africans, and Japanese don’t have chlorophyll in their bodies!
Nima, fire the guy who developed glyphosate when you get back, what a waste! Who can be poisoned by glyphosate, which is less toxic than table salt?
Moreover, the United States is the country that uses the most glyphosate in the world. If the flowers and plants in the White House courtyard are poisoned to death, will you be responsible? !
If risking your life doesn’t work, then make money!
Watch me use genetically modified patents to firmly control your Chinese agriculture and make all your Chinese people’s money away. Once China is such a big market, once it opens up, I can’t help but laugh out loud just thinking about it.
You see, in 1996, Monsanto brought genetically modified cotton to China, and seed sales immediately skyrocketed. One gram of seed was worth one gram of gold, and everyone was still rushing to buy it. With a 90% share of the regional market, it was monopolized in minutes~
Look again, in 1999, China’s own genetically modified cotton began to be industrialized, and it actually wanted to compete with Monsanto. It was simply overestimating its capabilities.
Look again, in 2001. It seems that something is wrong with the limelight. Monsanto's cotton seeds can no longer be sold, and dozens or hundreds of genetically modified cotton varieties have appeared in China in just a few years.
In 2002, it declined.
In 2007, skating continued.
2014...
Can I not mention this year? It's so miserable...
China's genetically modified cotton planting rate has reached 93%, but among the more than 3 million hectares of genetically modified cotton, Monsanto's seed market share has dropped to less than 5%, and the rest are all domestically produced.
It’s only been a few years! Where has the promised monopoly gone? !
The boss of Monsanto pulled out a few more strands of hair: The Chinese are so good at imitating and learning from others, and it seems that money from this monopoly is not that easy to earn...
The guy over there is wearing a red scarf. My friend asked again: Then why does Monsanto still stay in China? There must be another conspiracy!
Actually, I don’t know why Monsanto still sticks to China and refuses to leave...
It is definitely funny to exterminate the population with genetic weapons, and I think it is disgusting to make huge profits from monopoly operations. But Monsanto definitely didn’t come to China to do Bethune!
This is a commercial company opened by capitalists and must be responsible to shareholders. Like Apple, Microsoft, and Uber, of course, when you come to China, you come to make money.
Making money is not noble, but it doesn’t really seem to be a conspiracy.
