Chapter 58 Eve of the Opening (Seeking Recommendations!)

  The day before the opening of the Horticultural Exposition, Duan Lei finally successfully cultivated 20 'pollution-fighting' plants for display and had them delivered to the exhibition hall by a moving company. He Yuanzheng was already waiting in the exhibition hall with his staff from the gardening field, and when he saw Duan Lei arrive with the plants, he hurried over to help unload them.

  This exhibition hall is actually not in a good location, it's the most remote one in the entire exhibition center, which is also due to Duanyan's insufficient funds and weak company strength. If Duanyan's 'Zhiwu Rong' can make a big splash this year, I estimate that next year when Duanyan participates in the Horticultural Expo, he will be able to occupy the best exhibition hall at the smallest cost.

  "Stones, why are you still insisting on having the moving company bring over the 'pollution control equipment'? Isn't that a waste of funds?" He Yuanzheng was still somewhat dissatisfied with Duan Lei's actions, after all, he knew that Duan Lei's current funds were a bit tight.

  "They've been busy during this time too, so I didn't bother them again," Duan Lei said with some embarrassment: "Anyway, it didn't cost much money, it's no big deal!"

  Actually, Duan Yue wasn't afraid of troubling He Yuanzheng and his employees, but the changes within the experimental base were just too great, many things couldn't be explained. So Duan Yue simply didn't let them help. After all, there were many secrets in the experimental base, if they could be hidden, then they would be hidden for now.

  The workers of the moving company, together with the gardening friends, worked together and quickly moved twenty large vats into the exhibition hall and placed them on the edge of the water tank dug by He Yuanzheng in advance.

  Next, these water pits will be injected into the heavily polluted river water for experimentation, as a control group, He Yuanzheng moved dozens of various tree species from the gardening field and placed them on the edge of the water tank. These control tree species include common trees such as pine, camphor, osmanthus, etc., and of course, Duan Lei's small-leaf fig used to transform into a 'pollution-fighting fig'.

  After a busy period of time, Duan Lei and his team finally finished decorating the exhibition hall, and now they are waiting for tomorrow's opening to make a big splash!

  With some time left, He Yuanzheng and Duan Lei strolled around the exhibition center to take a look at other exhibitors' products and understand the development trend of the global horticulture industry.

  However, this time the two people's minds were different from before, and they both had a relatively relaxed attitude towards all sorts of strange things.

  In previous years when the Expo was held, as a practitioner in the gardening industry, He Yuanzheng did not have enough strength to participate in the exhibition, but he participated from beginning to end every time, just to find suitable varieties, introduce technologies or agent products from thousands of exhibits, and increase business for the gardening venue.

  At that time, visiting the horticultural exhibition was a tough job. No matter how dazzling the rare flowers and plants in front of him were, He Yuanzheng's mood was not so relaxed.

  Because many gardening products look beautiful, but in reality, they may not be suitable for the actual situation of 'Green Source Gardening'. He Yuanzheng needs to comprehensively analyze various factors such as price, yield, cultivation difficulty, and even the technical strength of the gardening itself to select the most suitable products for the development of the gardening. Therefore, after each exhibition ends, He Yuanzheng always loses weight, but in order to maintain the gardening, he still has to grit his teeth and persevere. After all, with the improvement of people's living standards, residents have more requirements for gardening products, and the market expansion has also brought a large number of enterprises, making the competition even fiercer.

  Doing business is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you'll retreat. As long as you want to continue in this line of work, you must invest your whole heart and soul. Especially for a small and medium-sized enterprise like 'Green Source Gardening', if you want to gain a foothold in the business world surrounded by giants, you must pay more hardships.

  But now, He Yuanzheng has locked in Duan Lei's 'Zhi Wu Rong', and has more confidence in the future. With a very relaxed mood, he can go to appreciate the various strange flowers and weeds in the exhibition center, and enjoy the joy brought by these natural spirits!

  As for Duan Yue, this is his second time participating in the Horticultural Exposition, and it feels completely different!

  The last time I participated in the Horticultural Exposition, it was as a volunteer and I spent the whole day outside the venue providing services to exhibitors and tourists, without even having the chance to appreciate the exhibits inside. Duan Lei only saw reports and introductions about the exposition in some publications afterwards, and wasn't very clear about many of the technical details of the exposition.

  It can be said that being a volunteer at the Expo is more about exercising certain abilities, and not necessarily improving professional knowledge. After working hard for nearly half a month at the Expo, Duan Lei returned to school exhausted and somewhat regretful, because the organizing committee had made it clear that they were treating these university student volunteers as cheap labor, providing only two meals a day. So, this time Duan Lei didn't have the heart to participate in the selection of Expo volunteers again. In his opinion, volunteering is just something that can fool new students who are fresh out of school!

  If it wasn't for finding a suitable platform for 'Zhi Wu Rong', under He Yuanzheng's reminder, Duan Lei really didn't know about the Expo.

  Putting aside the urgent mood as a student, Duan Yue followed He Yuanzheng with great interest, visiting the exhibits of the entire exhibition hall one by one.

  After a round of galloping and viewing, Duan Lei found that the vast majority of gardening products were developed in the direction of appreciation, greening, beautification, etc. To say the least, they are more beautiful and attractive than 'pollution control'.

  The current horticultural technology has developed to a very high level. The continuous application of biotechnology and genetic technology on Earth has made many horticultural products that were rare in nature before, emerge like bamboo shoots after rain, leaving people amazed! For example, blue roses, yellow roses, and various orchids, etc., all have high technical content, representing the highest standard in the horticulture industry.

  After seeing various rare ornamental plants, Duan Lei also had some ideas. If he could use the technology of the planet Makka to cultivate some high-tech and highly ornamental plants and sell them to He Yuanzheng's gardening field, it would be a good choice.

  However, the focus of the majority of exhibitors and visitors was on appreciating plants, and the R&D efforts for some functional plants were not high. The result of the visit made Duan Lei feel much more at ease, and from now on, as long as he could use certain means to attract the attention of merchants and demonstrate the ability of 'pollution-reducing bamboo', things would be easy to handle!

  Although Duan Lei's exhibition hall location is general, Duan Lei still has confidence in obtaining a large number of orders through the strong ability of 'Zhi Wu Rong' to earn the first pot of gold for himself and Ding Ding's career.

  Duan Yue clearly, in the database of Dingdang, there are tens of millions of advanced materials. If all of them were to be made into products for sale, it would be impossible even if one worked oneself to death. Therefore, after earning the first pot of gold, Duan Yue will shift the focus of his research to how to combine the current situation on Earth to transform Maca technology, becoming a technology outputter rather than a product manufacturer!

  Change the world with technology, this is Duan Yongping's goal!
