This is a very bad influence. Because some of them are world-renowned scientists. At present, there are still a group of Chinese students studying abroad who are preparing to return home. We cannot let such things affect their decision. Of course, more importantly

Yes, once such incidents spread and other universities start to experience similar incidents, it will seriously affect the development of science in our country.

Wei Hongjun went to greet him in person, and Zhang Weishen, who was appointed as the director of the Department of Chemistry of North China Agricultural University, director of the Institute of Biology, and senior technical consultant of North China Pharmaceutical Factory, found Wei Hongjun.

Because Zhang Weishen is responsible for the development of antibiotics.

This was something Wei Hongjun took very seriously. Construction of the Soviet-aided North China Pharmaceutical Factory was currently underway. After Soviet experts developed a plan, Wei Hongjun gave his full support to ensure the swift completion of all aspects of the project.

Expand the scale of the infrastructure engineering corps of the North China Military Region. In addition to drawing workers and farmers from the surrounding areas, the North China Pharmaceutical Factory was also built by drawing infrastructure engineering corps from the North China Military Region. The speed of construction frightened the Soviet Union.

Experts. The factory construction was twice as fast as the Soviet experts expected. It has been less than a year since the start of preparations, but the starch factory is almost completed. Machinery and equipment from the Soviet Union have begun to enter Shijiazhuang one after another.

Once the equipment is in place, it can be debugged. According to the current situation, the starch plant of North China Pharmaceutical Factory can start trial production within two years.

This was a full year earlier than the Soviet experts had expected, which was that it would take about three years to go into production.

In addition to the starch factory, the construction of the antibiotic factory and the glass factory is currently progressing smoothly.

What made the Soviet experts even more satisfied was the Chinese workers and peasants' enthusiasm for learning, especially those preparing to become technicians and workers at the North China Pharmaceutical Factory, who toiled during the day and eagerly absorbed cultural knowledge at night.

In addition to the North China Pharmaceutical Factory, the Biological Research Institute of North China Agricultural University currently gathers talents from all over the country, including university professors, technicians from pharmaceutical factories, and returnees from studying abroad.

It can be said that for the development of antibiotics in China, Wei Hongjun gave Zhang Weishen support in all aspects.

Zhang Weishen wanted to meet Wei Hongjun. Although Wei Hongjun was busy with work, he quickly made time.

"What exactly happened?"

Wei Hongjun is currently confused.

Zhang Weishen came to me not to get support from other aspects.

But to file a complaint.

This is a complaint about what happened at North China Agricultural University.

Zhang Weishen said, "Vice Premier Wei, look at this."

Wei Hongjun opened it and took a look.

Wei Hongjun frowned as he looked at the report. Because there was an academic dispute going on at North China Agricultural University. It started as an academic debate. But it soon evolved into a fierce conflict. What was even more serious was that scholars from the liberated areas began to

Resolve this dispute through political means.

815 Science and Politics 2

As Wei Hongjun read Zhang Weishen's brief report and his explanation, he realized that the situation had become a major uproar. The entire North China Agricultural University was currently in an uproar.

But the matter is only limited to North China Agricultural University.

In addition, Wei Hongjun was busy with work, and it had been less than a month since he returned to Beijing from East China. Besides, Wei Hongjun was not in charge of these universities, so he had not heard of this matter. But North China Agricultural University was founded by Wei Hongjun.

Wei Hongjun was familiar with many cadres at all levels of the university, including many professors who were personally introduced to North China Agricultural University by Wei Hongjun.

The report written by Zhang Weishen was relatively simple because he was very anxious. However, the more Wei Hongjun read the report, the worse his expression became. But now Wei Hongjun has his own department in charge, and it is not easy for him to directly intervene in the affairs of other departments. Fortunately, Wei Hongjun is a bookkeeper.

As the secretary of the secretariat, he is also the vice premier of the State Council and the deputy secretary of the party group. Although he is not directly in charge of colleges and universities, he is also qualified to ask questions.

Wei Hongjun went directly to see Guo Moruo, director of the Cultural and Educational Committee.

"Mr. Guo, are you just going to sit back and watch what's happening at North China Agricultural University?"

Currently, the State Council has a Ministry of Higher Education that specifically manages colleges and universities, which is under the leadership of the Culture and Education Committee. Therefore, this matter must be approved by Guo Moruo.

Guo Moruo has a very high status and position in New China.

From the perspective of the CCP, Guo Moruo was one of its own. A scholar who had devoted his early life to military service, he enjoyed a successful career as a Lieutenant General and Deputy Director of the General Political Department of the Northern Expedition. By then, Guo Moruo was already a nationally renowned talent.

During the Nanchang Uprising, Guo Moruo gave up his rank of lieutenant general and a promising career in the Nationalist government to participate in the Nanchang Uprising. At the most critical moment, he chose to join the party and served as the director of the General Political Department of the Nanchang Uprising troops. This performance alone was a great achievement for the Communist Party of China.

For him, he was a trustworthy person. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he returned to China from Japan and was responsible for propaganda work.

The Communist Party of China was going to hold a National Political Consultative Conference, and Guo Moruo was the first to respond.

Guo Moruo is a cadre whom even the Chairman respects very much.

After the founding of New China, the Central Committee called on party members and cadres across the country to learn from Guo Moruo's "Three Hundredth Anniversary of the Jiashen Incident" several times.

In the cultural world, Guo Moruo is a great intellectual. In his early years, Guo Moruo became famous by writing novels, poems, and operas. In particular, he was one of the best in vernacular poetry, operas, and operas.

During the ten years he fled to Japan while being sought by Chiang Kai-shek, Guo Moruo achieved remarkable academic success. His research on Chinese history and oracle bone inscriptions reached the pinnacle, solidifying his position in the academic world.

Even among the intellectuals of the Republic of China, no one would have said Guo Moruo's scholarship was inferior, even if he disagreed with them. Guo Moruo was, more precisely, a revolutionary who, by devoting time to scholarship, achieved a level of scholarship that many would never reach in their lifetimes.

Precisely because Guo Moruo holds a high status in the academic field, his influence in the Chinese cultural circle is astonishing.

New China needed Guo Moruo to help stabilize the cultural circle and help New China retain a large number of talents so that they would not follow Chiang Kai-shek. Guo Moruo did a very good job in this task. He used his personal connections and influence to help New China stabilize the cultural circle.

A large number of talents.

Therefore, when Guo Moruo served as Vice Premier of the State Council and Director of the Cultural and Educational Committee of the State Council, no one thought that he was unworthy of this position.

"Comrade Wei Hongjun, I've also heard about this matter. But the situation is somewhat complicated."

Guo Moruo also had a headache.

There was no hiding: "At the All-Union Lenin Academy of Agricultural Sciences Conference held in August last year, the absolute status of Michurin biology was established, and then Mendel-Morgan biology was strongly criticized. At the conference, it was said that Michurin biology was 'social

ism, progressive, 'materialist,' proletarian", while Mendel-Morgan's genetics was 'reactionary,

'Idealism, metaphysics, bourgeois. It can be said that after this meeting, Mendel and Morgan's genetics

As far as I know, Lysenko's report on the current state of biological sciences, criticizing Mendel and Morgan's theories at the All-Union Lenin Academy of Agricultural Sciences last August, was approved by the Central Committee of the CPSU and Comrade Stalin.

That is to say, criticism of the Mendel-Morgan theory was supported by the Central Committee of the CPSU and Comrade Stalin.

Wei Hongjun actually has no idea what Michurin biology and Mendel-Morgan genetics are.

To be honest, after I graduated from school and started working in my previous life, it didn’t take long for me to forget most of the knowledge in the textbooks. Not to mention that Wei Hongjun’s major in college was not biology, so his knowledge of biology was limited to what he learned in high school.

I learned it when I was young. However, in my previous life, I went to college and worked for a while, so I forgot a lot of things from the textbooks. In this time and space, I am fighting wars and building bases every day. If I think about it carefully, the biology I learned in high school was more than 20 years ago.

How could Wei Hongjun know what Michurin biology and Mendel-Morgan genetics were?

But Wei Hongjun still had some impression of this story. That is, in the history of the Soviet Union, there was a great figure who single-handedly overwhelmed many scientists. That was Lysenko.

He was a prominent figure in Soviet science for more than 30 years.

Wei Hongjun was not clear about the specific situation.

But Wei Hongjun knew that Lysenko had plagued Soviet biology for over thirty years. In the field of genetics, Lysenko's presence not only caused the Soviet Union to fall behind Europe and the United States, but also harmed a number of socialist countries.

The bigger problem is that his existence seriously affected the academic atmosphere of the entire Soviet Union and socialist countries.

"Among the experts and professors introduced by the Chairman through negotiations with the Soviet Union, a large number of them have flowed into our education field. Currently, many universities have cooperated with Soviet universities, introducing their experts and professors to help our universities improve their academic level.

The Agricultural University is currently the most powerful agricultural university in China, and many Soviet experts and professors have come here.”

Guo Moruo paused here.

North China Agricultural University currently has a very high status.

It wasn't just because Wei Hongjun founded the university. It was also because North China Agricultural University had a strong foundation. Wei Hongjun merged the agricultural departments of universities in the old liberated areas with those of universities in North China to form North China Agricultural University.

Talents were also drawn from all over the country to enrich North China Agricultural University.

Many talented people who have returned from studying abroad have entered North China Agricultural University. Don't be fooled by its name, North China Agricultural University now has a lot to offer, as it not only covers agriculture but also forestry, agricultural machinery, and medical technology.

Moreover, several national-level projects, such as seed breeding, antibiotic research, and seedling cultivation, are located at North China Agricultural University.

Therefore, it is also one of the key universities cooperating with the Soviet Union.

"Comrade Wei Hongjun, do you know Comrade Yue Tianyu?"

"know."

Wei Hongjun nodded.

Yue Tianyu is a great intellectual of the Communist Party of China.

This is a very capable intellectual cadre. He graduated from the National Beijing Agricultural University. He joined the revolution in his early years and was a party member during the Great Revolution. He worked in the peasant movement for many years. He had a special friendship with the Chairman. In his early years, he studied at the First Normal School of Hunan.

The two knew each other when they were in school.

Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he worked as a university professor for a long time and served as the director of the Henan Agricultural and Forestry Bureau. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he came to Yan'an and was responsible for agricultural work in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, where he began to utilize his professional skills in agriculture.

He made great contributions to the famous Nanniwan.

Life in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region was difficult at the time, and the central government needed to be self-sufficient. Therefore, Yue Tianyu inspected the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region for more than 40 days and finally chose Nanniwan.

Wei Hongjun is familiar with Yue Tianyu.

This is because Yue Tianyu was responsible for the work of cultivating and improving seeds in Jinchaji, and also helped North China analyze what crops to plant to increase yields. Currently, many of the grain planting in North China is under the guidance of Yue Tianyu. Later, he served as the director of the Northern University.

The dean of the Agricultural College and the dean of the Agricultural College of North China University, it can be said that most of the agricultural talents of the Communist Party of China are students of Yue Tianyu.

This is a true "red scientist".

Therefore, Yue Tianyu himself has a high status in the CCP.

When Wei Hongjun founded North China Agricultural University, he chose Yue Tianyu as the president. Yue Tianyu is currently the director of the North China Agricultural University Academic Affairs Committee, which is actually the position of president. However, North China Agricultural University does not currently have a president position.

The only affairs of state are the school boards.

"Comrade Yue Tianyu and the agricultural talents from the old liberated areas all supported Michurin biology. Most of the former professors of agricultural colleges in Beijing and Tianjin supported Mendel-Morgan genetics.

The debate continued. Following the August meeting of the Soviet Academy of Agricultural Sciences last year, which spread throughout the Soviet Union, it also reached China this year. In addition, the Soviet experts and professors at the North China Agricultural University led to the conflict between the two sides.

In the recent meetings, Comrade Yue Tianyu's attitude has become increasingly hardline. He has frequently criticized the professors who support Mendel-Morgan genetics and Mendel-Morgan genetics in the spirit of the Soviet Union's meeting last August.

The school board wants to cancel courses involving Mendelian-Morgan genetics.

As expected, Guo Moruo had a more detailed understanding of these matters.

It seems that Guo Moruo is also concerned about what is happening at North China Agricultural University. However, it is understandable that Guo Moruo, as a great talent, has a wide network of contacts in the cultural circle. He must have received the news of such a thing happening at North China Agricultural University early on.

interest.

"Mr. Guo, do you have any measures?"

Guo Moruo said with some embarrassment: "Comrade Wei Hongjun, this involves Soviet experts and professors, and the August Conference held by the Soviet Union last year had a huge impact. And Comrade Yue Tianyu, this...

Wei Hongjun understood what Guo Moruo meant and also understood Guo Moruo's situation.

Guo Moruo's identity has both good and bad sides.

Guo Moruo is now a secret member of the Chinese Communist Party. In order to unite all cultural circles, Guo Moruo's party membership is not made public. Although the top leaders of the Chinese Communist Party trust Guo Moruo, many powerful people in the party do not regard Guo Moruo as a member of the party.
