[Chapter 434: Dinosaur placement problem]

Ren Hong returned to the company headquarters. The next day, Yonghua, the head of the K-18 Institute, contacted him as soon as possible when he learned the news.

When they arrived at the K-18 Prehistoric Biology Institute, Ren Hong and Yonghua stood on the corridor of the fenced platform. The two were surrounded by a giant spherical roof. From the outside, they looked like a huge hemispherical observatory. The outside world could not see the inside, but the sunlight could absorb the inside.

There is an independent ecological environment inside the fence. A huge triceratops rushed out of the jungle. The horns on their heads were suddenly pressed against the edge of the fence. On the corridor at the top of the fence, Yonghua looked at the dinosaurs below and said to Ren Hong: "Chairman, for huge dinosaurs, a closed ecological space has never been a solution. In the final analysis, the venue is still too small. These triceratops have become manic recently. We are suppressing their nature. Their behavior is expressing to us that they must return to nature!"

This is indeed an urgent question. Ren Hong stared at the triceratops below that were constantly hitting the metal wall, and was silent for a moment, "Let's go, let's talk later."

The two came indoors, Ren Hong said: "The dinosaur project and the Western Project complement each other. The research team is currently improving the vegetation genes to make it have faster reproductive ability. By the way, how is the genetic transformation of the plant system going on?"

"The progress is normal, but it is quite difficult to artificially control the future evolutionary trend of vegetation genes. Even if it is successful, you have to consider the subsequent negative impacts." Yonghua replied.

Ren Hong covered his mouth with his hands crossed his fingers and fell into deep thought.

Both the Western Engineering and the Dinosaur Project are in a companion relationship, and it is not a question of who serves whom, or who is the leader. Ren Hong has assigned a very difficult task to the scientific research team, namely, genetically transforming prehistoric vegetation transplanted to the Takramakan area of ​​the Western Renovation Project in the future. This task is comparable to the difficulty of resurrecting prehistoric organisms.

Because the conditions are too harsh, Ren Hong’s requirement is to accelerate the reproduction capacity of prehistoric vegetation and increase the growth of conventional growth several times or even dozens of times. Only in this way can it have a considerable impact on the transformation of the entire western project.

But there are more than one difficult problem, and the subsequent impact needs to be considered more. Genetic mutations in vegetation are undoubtedly a double-edged knife. Fast-breeding vegetation can improve the efficiency of greening the entire Taklamakan Desert. Greening the desert is a good side, but when the entire western region is covered with vegetation, the positive impact will turn into a negative impact.

If one is not done well, it will destroy the surrounding ecological environment. The efficient and fast reproductive ability of vegetation after genetic mutation is also an aggressive manifestation. They will seize the living space of other plants on the earth and may even cause the extinction of other vegetation. If a certain link of the ecological system is destroyed, it will inevitably affect the entire ecosystem.

These factors that cannot be ignored must be taken into account.

In the contemplative thought, Ren Hong recalled the negative impact Yonghua just mentioned. He shook his head and said, "The positive and negative impacts are both double-belt. The negative impacts can still be suppressed through artificial intervention. As for plants with genetic mutation, we use some vegetation that can be used as much as possible in the green forest vegetation in the western project. Starting from the available direction, a large number of these extremely expanded plants will be cut down as wood and used as artificial materials in dozens or hundreds of years later, which can effectively protect the problem."

Speaking of this, Ren Hong suddenly laughed and said, "At this time, dinosaurs have a reason to exist. We bring a large number of herbivorous dinosaurs into the ecosystem. These huge guys have to consume a lot of energy every day, which can well inhibit the expansion of vegetation, especially the k-mto178 variety, which specializes in eating vegetation seeds and making a living by calves."

Ren Hong added: "A normal ecosystem requires a complete food chain. No natural enemies of vegetative dinosaurs will also destroy the ecosystem and chew all the vegetation. Therefore, in order to curb the uncontrollable expansion of vegetative dinosaurs, we also need some carnivorous dinosaurs that specialize in preying on vegetative dinosaurs. A complete food chain is a key factor in the ecological rebalancing of the Taklamakan region."

"Carnivorous dinosaur?" Yonghua looked at the other party in surprise, "Chairman, I don't think the outside world would agree to let the 'Tyrannosaurus' or 'Vivorado' appear on the earth. Humans have deep-rooted fears about these fierce top predators."

"The fear brought by the exaggerated expression of art is nothing more. As long as it is a dinosaur, it is extremely dangerous, whether it is a vegetative or carnivorous one." Ren Hong said dismissively: "But then again, no matter how fast it is, can it be faster than the bullet? How hard the shell can block the armor-piercing bullet? How amazing the bite force can bite off the steel? In my opinion, it is just the opposite. The horns on the top of the triceratops and the teeth of the Tyrannosaurus rex will only be more valuable than ivory. Believe me, there are always some people who will enter the jungle for them to hunt. Don't forget that humans are the lives that stand at the top of the earth's food chain."

Yonghua was speechless for a moment, and Ren Hong continued: "If you want to say that it is truly a threat to the people, the only one is the Pterodactyl. Don't let this thing appear on the earth. As for other predators, we can easily limit their range of activities."

After saying that, Ren Hong opened the focusing screen, and the display panel presented a satellite map of the Takramakan Desert area. He said: "The Tarim River surrounding the basin and the middle and upper reaches of the Xijiang River are the first blockade line that blocks dinosaurs. Looking at the four-sided alpine plateau, the cold and thin air in high-altitude areas are the real life for dinosaurs. Under the double insurance, dinosaurs in the Takramakan area can only be limited to more than 10,000 square kilometers in the basin, which is enough."

Ren Hong pointed to the river waters surrounding the Taklamakan Desert area and said: "The most deadly thing is the 'Colorado River'-style swamp on both sides of the river. The carnivorous dinosaurs or vegetative dinosaurs on the ground basically die as much in addition to Diplosaurs. At the same time, we also need to introduce some crocodiles as the only top predators underwater, and a large number of giant freshwater catfish, giant eels and other fish, especially eel species, can have a good effect on the activity of swamp peat on the entire river bank."

Yonghua listened to Ren Hong's analysis and nodded silently, "No surprise, the probability of dinosaurs crossing the Tarim River in Xijiang is basically zero, not to mention the high-altitude areas behind."

"However, the Tarim Basin is no longer tropical, and this needs to be considered," Yonghua added.
