Yang Rui was even more surprised and asked: "Why is it said to be a conspiracy of American imperialism?"

"Because the conclusion of the article is that the common ancestor of mankind is a woman who lived in Africa 200,000 years ago." Jing Yulan was obviously impressed by this and said: "Professor Wu called this Eve theory and was in the office with Teacher Zhou, while searching the dictionary and cursing."

Yang Rui woke up and said in surprise: "Cann and stoneking from the University of Berkeley, California? Mitochondria?"

Now, Jing Yulan didn't know what Yang Rui said.

Yang Rui himself jumped up and walked around the room twice.

Tracing human origins through mitochondrial cells, in Yang Rui's memory, this is a famous article in January 1987. However, since PCR was launched faster and better than in history, it is not surprising that molecular biologists completed their research earlier.

And the significance of this research is not just something that can be covered by a "Nature".

To be more precise, it should be that the debate arising from this article "Nature" is too intense.

Not only biologists, molecular biologists, and anthropologists have participated in their debates, but also sociologists, political scientists, and cigars that don't know where they want to smoke.

Not only some people cannot accept this conclusion that humans come from Africa, but also people cannot accept the so-called "Eve Theory" - in the history of scientific development, scientists have always played the role of myth destroyers, and scholars outside the European and American cultural circles do not like this "Eve" study.

Whether it was in 1987 or 1985, the Cold War was not over yet. This theoretical study was undoubtedly full of ideology.

However, the center of these fierce debates is anthropological research, and PCR will only benefit in this process.

Yang Rui walked around twice and asked, "Is the discussion in your school fierce? I mean, there is a very fierce discussion on this Eve theory? Or is it the only Professor Wu who is talking about it."

"Several professors in the Department of Biology are talking about it." Jing Yulan is quite concerned about the Department of Biology because of Yang Rui.

"Is it academic discussion or fancy discussion?"

"Fancy discussion?" Jing Yulan quickly woke up, covered her mouth and smiled, and said, "Are there any, what's the difference?"

"If it is an academic discussion, it will probably be limited to the academic circle. If it is a fancy discussion, it will probably be transmitted to social media soon." Yang Rui actually guessed that there will be a fancy discussion. Otherwise, Wen Xiaoman would not have seen this topic first, and secondly, the issue of human beings leaving Africa is indeed too social.

In the 1980s, China was most proud of history, and the origin of mankind was the origin of all history.

As a result, the Chinese actually came from Africa?

Many Chinese people can't accept it.

Not to mention that people couldn't accept it in the 1980s, by the 21st century, there has been so much research on the genetic level of anthropology, and some people are still counting on using the ape people from Zhoukoudian to turn the tables.

However, it cannot.

Humans not only come from Africa, but even from a certain population in Africa. Evolution is so cruel. It is a lucky chance to have a human gene mutation and become the spirit of all things. Globalization has a multi-angle and time-mutated gene mutation, and it also merges with each other without reproductive isolation. How small is the probability of it?

Unfortunately, reality is not easy to be recognized by people if it is simple truth. The simpler reality is, the easier it is to be discussed by more people.

Ordinary people are not qualified to discuss difficult topics, so the most people discuss politics and economy and dirty talks. Anthropology occasionally condescends and puts an ankle on the ground, and social media probably won't let it go.

"Let them discuss it." Yang Rui shrugged and said, "I guess the discussions of Europeans and Americans are more enthusiastic. Fortunately, I am not anthropological, so I'll watch the fire from the other side of the river."

"What if someone asks you? I think the media likes to find you." Jing Yulan brought another bowl of soup to the table, handed it to Yang Rui, and turned around and turned the fire that was first in the stove. The lid of the pot jumped gently, exhaling with a strong aroma.

Yang Rui sniffed and smiled: "I am not going to be interviewed by the media recently. I have discussed it with Dalbeko so that he can promote his genome plan."

Yang Rui said casually and said, "The media must interview me, I am not afraid. I should know a little about anthropology."

When Yang Rui was talking, he stared at Jing Yulan's slim body.

When Jing Yulan realized what Yang Rui meant, she was picked up by the sky and let out a scream of unknown meaning.
