Chapter 364 Hexi Pig?
Chapter 364 Hexi Pig?
Gu Chang introduced his unique pig farming model to the audience in detail. Gu Chang gave a thorough explanation of every detail, which amazed everyone present!
They never thought that there was such a novel way to raise pigs!
As the speech was coming to an end, a picture of a black pig suddenly flashed on the big screen behind Gu Chang.
This black pig has a huge body, thin and fine fur, delicate bones, handsome appearance, a long but slightly thin neck, a large and sagging belly, a slightly tilted hips, and hind legs slightly higher than the forelimbs. The whole body outline presents a trapezoidal shape with a small front and a large back.
Just by looking at the appearance of this pig, people can guess that it is most likely a native pig breed of China!
Gu Chang looked at the audience with a smile, and then said, "Next, please allow me to introduce this pig to you."
“Is this the Taihu pig that won the award at the Li Man Pig Farming Conference?”
Someone below immediately asked curiously.
Gu Chang smiled and shook his head and said.
"No."
"That must be the Licha black pig! Look how black it is!" said a girl.
Gu Chang smiled and shook his head again, saying: "Not really."
"Ah? Not the black pig from Licha?"
"This black pig looks very familiar, but I just can't remember what kind of pig it is!"
A student majoring in pig farming said.
"..."
Just as everyone was chattering and guessing what kind of pig the black pig in the photo was, Wang Linghai frowned and fell into deep thought.
He stared at the photo and a feeling of déjà vu came over him.
He was sure that he had come into contact with this kind of pig before, but at the moment he could not remember its exact name!
However, there was one thing Wang Linghai was very sure of: he had definitely seen this kind of pig!
At this time, Gu Chang cleared his throat and said with a smile: "This kind of pig is called Hexi pig."
"Hexi pig?"
There was a puzzled voice from the crowd.
"What kind of pig is this?"
Another person asked.
"I've never heard of it..."
People around echoed this, saying that they were unfamiliar with the name.
"..."
At this moment, those three words - "Hexi Pig" rang in Wang Linghai's ears, like a flash of lightning passing through his mind!
"Hexi Pig!"
He muttered to himself, his thoughts being pulled back to decades ago.
At that time, he was still a young college student and followed his mentor to Gansu Province for research.
It was there that they came across a special local breed of pig.
That kind of pig was exactly the same as the one in the picture Gu Chang showed!
It’s this Hexi pig!
"Ah! I remember now. The Hexi pig is one of the eight native pig breeds in our country that have become extinct! How did it appear here? Wasn't it extinct a long time ago?"
Suddenly, a student majoring in animal husbandry shouted loudly, his voice full of astonishment and confusion.
"Yes, I remember that the information said that they became extinct in the last century!"
Wang Linghai in the audience nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with what the students said.
That’s true!
Looking back, in the years since he last completed his research work, due to the massive influx of foreign pig breeds and an unexpected outbreak of swine fever, the Hexi pig breed has disappeared from the vast land of Gansu!
However, when he stared at the photos shown by Gu Chang on the stage, he found that these were not the old and worn-out photos from the last century.
The pig in the picture is grazing leisurely in the orchard. Its fur is soft and smooth, and the details are clearly visible.
Could it be that... this photo was actually restored by Gu Chang after great effort?
So why did he show this photo?
Wang Linghai looked at his student with suspicion, and couldn't understand what his student meant by doing this.
At this moment, Gu Chang looked down at the people below the stage who were full of confusion, and suddenly the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a mysterious smile.
"Then have you ever thought that this kind of pig may not be really extinct?" He said softly, his voice was not loud but clearly heard by everyone.
Everyone looked at each other, with even more confusion on their faces.
"Maybe, they are just hiding in some corner that we have never noticed, living quietly." Gu Chang continued with a gleam in his eyes.
"impossible!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Linghai, who was sitting in the front row, stood up suddenly, his eyes widened in disbelief, and stared at Gu Chang on the stage.
If Wang Linghai didn't know Gu Chang very well and trusted him very much, he would have wanted to rush to the podium immediately and pull down this guy who was talking nonsense!
"A pig species that has been extinct for decades, you actually said that there are still surviving individuals? This is simply a fantasy!"
He couldn't accept such ridiculous remarks!
How is this possible?
