Looking at Qu Hongbo's expression, Gu Zhan knew that Qu Hongbo did not think his approach was correct in this matter.

Gu Zhan also knew that he had made this suggestion too hastily, so he had to explain: "At present, our country's breeding industry has just started, and chicken plague is an inevitable problem.

But you should know, Dean, that bird flu is far more harmful than chicken plague. It spreads more widely and causes greater harm. If a bird flu outbreak occurs in a breeding farm, it will be a fatal blow."

As a famous poultry disease research expert in Ontario, Qu Hongbo naturally has some exposure to and research on avian influenza. However, as a newcomer, where would Gu Zhan, a researcher himself, put his face when he brought up the topic of avian influenza?

Just looking up at Gu Zhan's slightly serious expression, Qu Hongbo's anger subsided a lot. He asked Gu Zhan seriously, "Why did you turn your research direction to the avian influenza virus?"

When Gu Zhan heard Qu Hongbo ask him, he knew that the string in Qu Hongbo's heart had loosened.

"Dean, once white-feathered chickens begin to be widely promoted, subsequent disease prevention and control must be closely followed. The province will be promoting the breeding of white-feathered chickens on a large scale next year, but we are still almost blank in poultry disease research. We are worried that if there is an emergency, we will not be able to respond in time."

Qu Hongbo said: "According to the data we have collected, the most deadly problem facing poultry farming right now is fowl plague."

Gu Zhan thought of some research materials he had seen in his previous life, and he hurriedly explained: "Dean, what if some chicken plagues are not chicken plagues?"

"What do you mean?" Gu Zhan's words were a bit confusing, and Qu Hongbo didn't understand what Gu Zhan wanted to say for a moment.

"President Qu, many times the information we collect is about fowl plague, but it's actually avian influenza. The two viruses have highly similar characteristics, but avian influenza is more harmful."

While listening, Qu Hongbo opened the stack of documents that Gu Zhan had just handed over and looked through them carefully. After finishing, he stood up and walked to the red-painted filing cabinet standing by the wall. He opened the cabinet, took out a stack of documents from a kraft paper file box, and walked to Gu Zhan again.

"Look, this is the information we collected."

Gu Zhan followed Qu Hongbo's line of sight, took out the information from the file box, and began to look through it carefully, turning over the pages one by one. The more he read, the deeper his frown became.

"There are some characteristic misclassifications in these records."

Gu Zhan said decisively, pointing at the records on the yellowed paper.

Qu Hongbo frowned. "No, this is all recorded by teachers in our academy who have extensive research in this field. How could there be any mistakes in this record?"

Gu Zhan flipped out a page and pointed at a record.

"Look at this message. It records an elevated body temperature, accompanied by lethargy, purple combs, difficulty breathing, fluid discharge from the beak, green, greenish-yellow, or yellowish-white feces, and redness and swelling of the upper small intestine, tonsils, and cecum."

Then he pulled out another record sheet and said, "But look at this record again. The upper part of the small intestine, tonsils, and appendix are all normal."

Qu Hongbo turned around in confusion: "Is there something wrong with this?"

Gu Zhan smiled confidently, pointing to the last sentence and said, "Of course there is a difference, because avian influenza will not cause suppuration in other organs of chickens, such as the cecum, duodenum, and tonsils."

Gu Zhan spoke very professionally, and there was no reason for Qu Hongbo not to believe him. He subconsciously picked up the stack of record sheets and looked through them again. Sure enough, he found that there were slight differences in the records. According to Gu Zhan's records, he could really divide the folding sheets into two categories.

"This……"

Qu Hongbo fell silent. Thinking of the anger he had just shown towards Gu Zhan, he felt bad.

"It has to be young people. We are useless."

"I didn't pay attention to the method." Gu Zhan said this dryly. He really didn't learn how to make the old man happy. He didn't know how to do it.

"Now what?"

Gu Zhan frowned and thought for a few minutes, and finally he suggested: Since the two infectious diseases have many similarities and often occur in the breeding process, can they be combined and studied together?

This idea made Qu Hongbo's eyes light up.

This method should be the most efficient one at present. After all, the opportunities for business development are right in front of us, and there is no time to pick out any one of them and spend time studying them.

"That's best, Xiao Gu."

Coming out of Qu Hongbo's office, Gu Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. Qu Hongbo's open-mindedness far exceeded his expectations, and he was willing to accept different ideas, which surprised Gu Zhan.

The inevitable support for good scientific research results is a good scientific research environment.

Gu Zhan also developed some favorable feelings towards the atmosphere of the Agricultural College.

After coming out of Qu Hongbo's office, Gu Zhan returned to the office and glanced at the wall clock, and found that it was time to pick up the children from school.

When he hurried over, Gu Xinxin was the only child left in the entire kindergarten.

"father!"

When Gu Xinxin saw her father coming to pick her up, she happily stood up from the small stool and ran into her father's arms.

"Dad, why did you come just now?"

Gu Zhan was speechless. Liu Xiaoxi had classes at this time today, so he was asked to pick up the child from school. Who knew that he went to Qu Hongbo's office and wasted time.

"I'm sorry, baby. Next time, daddy will definitely pick you up on time!"

Little Gu Xinxin pouted and said, "Dad, come earlier next time, and I won't cry this time."

Gu Zhan touched his daughter's little head, took her hand, and led her back to his office.

The people in the office were extremely curious when they saw Gu Zhan coming in with a little girl. A female teacher even came over to give biscuits to little Gu Xinxin.

Liu Xu saw Gu Xinxin and examined Gu Zhan's expression with inquiring eyes. After a while, he saw that Gu Zhan was taking care of the child familiarly, so he tried to ask, "Your daughter?"

The other people in the office had wanted to ask for a long time, but Gu Zhan didn't talk much in the office, so they felt embarrassed to ask.

Liu Xu's question really expressed what everyone was thinking.

"Yes, my daughter." Gu Zhan nodded with a smile.

Gu Xinxin was also a sensible child. After Gu Zhan finished speaking, she introduced herself: "Hello everyone, I'm Gu Xinxin."
