"This... Comrade Yang Rui, is there any basis for you to say this?" The middle-aged man in the front row thought for a moment, then asked, and said, "I will introduce myself. I am Chang Shihui, an associate researcher from our COFCO Beijing Research Institute. I recalled that I haven't seen any articles in this area recently. I don't know if I missed it."

His tone was a little deeper, and there was a slight questioning factor, so he was obviously preparing for a big discussion.

Most of the people present had a relationship with Coca-Cola, and they were eager to try it out in their eyes.

As long as you limit the scope of discussion to academic scope, it doesn’t matter if you get involved. The blame is only for the people you are looking for is not very knowledgeable.

On the contrary, if political issues can be solved through academic methods, Coca-Cola will probably not be stingy with some efforts.

Experience over the past few years shows that Coca-Cola is still quite generous in some aspects.

Yang Rui did not expect that there would be political issues. He just simply considered it and did not say anything too advanced.

After a little thought, Yang Rui said: "If it is still the case, let's start with the ingredients of carbonated beverages. The first thing is the calories. A bottle of Coke contains 150 kcal, which may cause obesity problems."

Chang Shihui, who was solemn, was stunned for a few seconds and laughed out loud: "Calimeters? Let me calculate it. 150 kcal is about... 30 to 40 grams of white sugar, drinking a bottle of Coke a month is too much. What is 30 to 40 grams of white sugar? The main problem in our country is insufficient nutrition, not excessive calories."

Several others also laughed out loud. If the so-called health problems are like this, they are not a problem at all.

Even Coca-Cola's little Guo laughed out loud.

Yang Rui didn't laugh and said calmly: "Care is still average? I ate four bowls of rice today, but the fellow villagers in the mountainous areas didn't eat a bite. We ate two bowls of rice on average? I drank 4 bottles of Coke today, but you didn't drink a bottle. We ate two bottles on average? Manager Xiao, who are your main sales targets of Coca-Cola?"

"Oh...mainly foreigners in China." This is a politically correct answer, the standard answer written in the document.

Chang Shihui was still happy about Yang Rui's average theory, and said, "Don't distract from the topic. Health or unhealthy is a common problem. It cannot be considered average, but you can't stare at someone."

"The amount of arsenic is Chinese medicine, and the amount of arsenic is poison. If you want to say the average, do you know what the average annual intake of Coca-Cola in the Americans is? The average per capita per year is 200 liters? Manager Xiao, is it?" Yang Rui looked at Manager Xiao as if inquiring.

Although it is not confidential information, in the closed 1980s, it was not known that such data was not checked.

Manager Xiao obviously knew that Qiqiai Ai said, "It's almost the case."

He was actually a little relaxed just now, but now he feels it is not that easy. The data per capita per capita is just open. It is impossible for Yang Rui to have no idea about carbonated beverages. Who can check these information and keep them in mind?

However, if Yang Rui has some research on carbonated beverages and has an unhealthy understanding, it will be troublesome.

Manager Xiao learned about the background information of everyone present in advance, while Yang Rui's information was quite conspicuous.

"CELL" is not Da Baicai. Among the 30 or 40 people present, only one-tenth of them have contacted them, and they may not be the first author.

This is in Beijing, and it was an invitation from Coca-Cola. Even if it was the United States, the proportion would not be much larger.

As for these people's right to speak, it's even more terrible.

Because you have no power to refute.

When two idle people quarrel, they can't explain clearly. When two scientific researchers quarrel, few people can make judgments. Many times, history needs to judge.

However, when an author of a top journal holds a certain opinion, the public often only has to listen. Of course, most of the time, the public does not know what they hear. However, when they are concerned about their personal interests, they can only listen if they don’t understand, and they can only follow authoritative words if they don’t understand.

Economists are the best example. As early as before Keynesian times, economists actually mastered the money bags of the country and ordinary people. Rate interest rates or cut interest rates? How much to increase or reduce? Print money or recycle money? Stimulate the economy or debt restructuring. These decisions closely related to ordinary people are often one or two. At most economists make decisions. In an environment with many unknown factors, authoritative scholars may make frequent mistakes, but their authority is rarely questioned because in other people's words, more mistakes may occur.

Coca-Cola is very clear about the influence of academics at the social level, otherwise she would not have organized such activities from time to time.

However, Manager Xiao’s experience is obviously not enough, and he doesn’t even have time to affect the situation.

At this time, Yang Rui completely entered a state of debate and said: "Everyone drinks an average of 200 liters of Coca-Cola per year. This calorie level must exceed the health value. Normal people cannot eat so much sugar in a year, but drinking Coke will become very relaxed."

"Every American family has a car, and China's national conditions are different." Chang Shihui was relaxed.

There were also researchers around to discuss: Americans are so rich, how much does it cost to 200 liters of Coke?

Yang Rui said: "After China develops and improves its economic level, it faces the same many problems."

"The problem is the problem. Taking a sip of Coca-Cola will not make people unhealthy."

"It's not just about Coca-Cola, carbonated beverages, but also about the soda and Arctic Ocean that we usually drink, which will also produce a superposition effect."

After Yang Rui said this, another researcher was unhappy and said: "For many years, customers have been praised by the Arctic soda, and there is no problem you mentioned..."

This naturally has something to do with the Arctic Ocean production company.

"Where is the world where there is a unanimous praise?" Yang Rui was excited and continued: "Besides, calories are just one of the problems of carbonated beverages, and another one of the problems of phosphoric acid."

"Phosphate?" Chang Shihui mobilized his mind and recalled it.

Yang Rui had already organized the language and said cracklingly: "Many carbonated beverages, such as the sour taste in cola, mainly comes from phosphoric acid. The astringent taste you taste in cola is phosphoric acid. Everyone knows that phosphoric acid is a medium-strong acid. When facing metal ions, it has strong binding ability. Moreover, the phosphorus salt produced by phosphoric acid combined with metal ions has very low solubility. I remember many articles that write that phosphoric acid in the digestive tract will reduce the absorption and utilization rate of trace elements such as calcium, iron, zinc, and copper..."

Clear and rigorous logic is the strongest weapon in debate.

Chang Shihui didn't expect that Yang Rui was really prepared, so he could only say: "Even if the absorption and utilization rate of some trace elements is reduced, the impact will not be too great."

Yang Rui asked: "That is, it will have an adverse effect?"

"Very tiny."

"It may be very small for you, what about teenagers? The teenager's bone growth requires a large amount of absorption and utilization of calcium in food. Phosphoric acid affects the absorption of calcium, which will inevitably lead to a peak decrease in bone density. Regarding this, a set of experiments can be designed." Yang Rui had some related research in his mind, and said with a wealthy attitude: "My laboratory is adding manpower, which can be used to practice for newcomers..."

Then, Yang Rui intermittently explained a set of teenage mouse experiments.

Chang Shihui suddenly felt powerless.

This is not a Chinese-style academic discussion!

Chinese-style academic discussions are usually just talking, and if you talk too much, you will give speeches to each other at various meetings or give a few words when giving a report, but in the final analysis, it is still talking.

How cheap it is to talk. Although the struggle for the urgency is in a stir, everyone is a social person, so of course they have to solve the problem in a cheap way.

Of course, not only Chinese academic discussions are like this, but also foreign academic discussions.

However, the slightly different is that Chinese scholars are poorer. Even if they are more angry, they would rather make trouble when the other party evaluates their professional titles than spend valuable research funds in such places. Foreigners are rich, lack the concept of frugality, and have no idea of ​​understanding. Even if they spend the investor's money, they must win a game first.

In 1984, researchers became even poorer.

Not to mention the landlord's family, the academician's family has no surplus food.

In the past decade, there have been too many times when everyone has spoken out from time to time, and there are also time to use anti-aircraft guns. However, there are very few people who use their own laboratory and spend their own experiments to do experiments to win the guns.

Chang Shihui's throat moved, and he wanted to say a few tough words.

But when the words came to your mouth, they suddenly became soft.

Chang Shihui advised himself: People are the people who have the right to decide on experimental projects and the flow of funds. They are also when they were young and energetic, so why am I fighting with him? In front of so many people...

Thinking of this, Chang Shihui lowered his tone and said, "The truth becomes clearer and clearer. It's better if you are willing to do a few sets of experiments."

Although he was not admitting defeat, Chang Shihui also wanted to calm down.

Everyone present also heard it. Some were laughing in their hearts, while others helped to say something and soften the scene.

Of course, some people discussed the guinea pig experiment he designed with Yang Rui. Although it is very difficult to open a new project, this project also lacks eye-catching exquisiteness or imminent social problems, but isn’t it the value of this kind of visiting meeting in the name of experimental discussion and giving off a little presence?

Everyone's discussion had just begun. Manager Xiao, who was slow to react in shock, whispered something, then pushed open the door and quickly left the conference room.

The sound of leather shoes stepping out echoing on the terrazzo floor for a long time.

After a while, two strong Americans pushed the door open.
Chapter completed!
