I Just Want to Be a Quiet Top Student

Chapter 699 Mystery succumb to higher mystery

In the Resurrection Extinct Biology Research Room, Shen Qi and the others saw the cloned resurrected cells of mammoths, saber-toothed tigers, and dodo birds.

According to Dean Li, they extracted genetic material from the remains of extinct species and injected them into the egg cells of existing close relatives, hoping to bring these extinct species back to life.

Scientists’ research on the resurrection of extinct species began as early as the first few years of the 21st century. This is nothing new in academic terms.

Shen Qi has always remained vigilant and even pessimistic about the deterioration of the ecological environment: “In more than ten years, the Siberian tiger, South China tiger, and Bengal tiger may all become extinct. Even if we resurrect the saber-toothed tiger, it will not be able to recover the damage caused by humans to the ecological environment. .”

Dean Li’s point of view is: “Even if it’s a drop in the bucket, it’s better than continuing to hurt, isn’t it?”

“That’s true, it depends on how far you can be resurrected.”

Everyone moved to the microbiology room, which is more like a small factory, perhaps it should be renamed a microbiology factory.

Rows of large metal tanks are used for fermentation and reaction. Atmospheric and high vacuum distillation devices, centrifuges, filter presses, gas phase reactors, liquid phase catalysts, ion exchange columns and other equipment are humming.

Dean Li’s team is producing microbes in batches, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses.

Dean Li pulled his mask: “Our ancestors lived in the wild. At that time, there were no masks or any protective clothing. The ancestors exchanged a lot of bacteria with nature and got along well with microorganisms. Of course, with the advancement of science and technology. Human life is getting longer and longer, but human beings are becoming more and more fragile. It is becoming more and more difficult for us to exchange natural bacteria with the outside world, so the human immune system cannot withstand the invasion of even the smallest germs.”

“So what is your countermeasure?” Shen Qi asked.

Dean Li’s eyes gleamed: “Let mankind return to the pastoral era…I mean the way of life, and human technology must continue to develop.”

“This giant virus is also part of your plan to return to the pastoral era? Is this a man-made virus or a natural virus?” Shen Qi locked his eyes on a virus on the screen that was magnified many times.

Data show that this giant virus has 4,200 genes, while the widely spread influenza A virus has only 8 genes.

“This virus was discovered under the ice of Greenland. It is actually a microbe that was 10,000 years ago. It was resurrected in our laboratory.” Dean Li only explained the source of the giant virus, but did not explain its use, presumably This is the core secret of their company.

Shen Qi and others are not very surprised, after all, the top international biological laboratories more or less preserve some viruses, some of which are fatal to humans. For example, the Canadian National Biological Laboratory, where Han Meng once stayed, stored the extremely dangerous Ebola virus.

Under the leadership of Dean Li, Shen Qi got his wish and visited the places he wanted to go below the 7th floor.

In fact, it was just a matter of time spent watching, and it is impossible to look through every laboratory carefully in one day.

Although he is looking at the flowers, Shen Qi also deeply understands that Huahan Gene’s scientific research in biology is very large and strong.

The biological laboratory of Shen Qi Research Center, a boss and five biological dogs, their biological strength is not on the same level as Huahan Gene.

It is just the experimental area below the seventh floor of this building. From the type, scale, and extent of the research projects they do daily, the amount of research funding invested every year is astronomical.

And this building is eleven stories high. Does the ghost know if they have a basement?

In addition to the Capital Research Headquarters, Huahan Gene also has East China and South China branches in Magic Capital and Pengcheng.

Shen Qi can imagine that in his lifetime, it is impossible for his Yanda laboratory to surpass Huahan Gene.

From a higher level, this is actually a good thing.

All scientific research projects are undertaken by national universities or national scientific research institutions, and academic thinking is easy to solidify, which is not conducive to continuous innovation.

Private scientific research institutions recruit global talents with high salaries. Under the premise that the company has ample liquidity, they do not need to apply for project funding from the government, and do not have to make lengthy opening and closing reports. When the question is started and when it is finished, their boss has the final say.

This also makes the scientific research process of private scientific research institutions more simplified and more efficient.

However, the highly independent scientific research power also has some hidden dangers. If Shen Qi did not conduct field research and see it with his own eyes, he would know what experimental research Dean Li was doing?

At the same time, it is undeniable that a highly independent and free scientific research environment and unlimited scientific research funds are the dream of every scientific researcher.

Dean Li’s reception of Shen Qi and others is beyond the norm.

Shen Qi and the others did not pay the deposit, but they visited so many core laboratories.

Even customers who have paid the full amount in advance can hardly enter such a wide range of experimental areas.

For Shen Qi’s questions, Dean Li gave most of the objective and accurate answers.

Dean Li is noncommittal and ambiguous about a few issues, and the content involved in these issues should be the top secret of their company.

All in all, Dean Li’s hospitality made Shen Qi very satisfied.

“Thank you, Dean Li, and welcome you to visit and exchange on my site, and give me a chance to be a host.” When Shen Qi said this, his heart was very vacant. The biological laboratory in their center was very poor, even the core equipment. You also have to buy from Huahan Gene.

Dean Li is really going to Shen Qi’s biological laboratory. What dry goods does Shen Qi have for Dean Li to visit and learn?

Drinking a cup of tea, blowing water, talking about the core values ​​of socialism, talking about avant-garde art, and evaluating the lives of Goethe and Nietzsche. This is probably the only arrangement.

“Those who have the opportunity, there are opportunities. We look forward very much to seeking cooperation with Academician Shen’s team and Yanda University in all aspects.” Dean Li said sincerely, with a sincerity index of over 99%.

“Then keep in touch, there will be some time later.” Shen Qi exchanged business cards with Dean Li.

Dean Li sent Shen Qi and the others down the stairs When passing by the small DNA hall on the first floor, Shen Qi once again listened to Dean Li’s boss: “…I will keep watching you and watching Your imagination is as fierce as a flame, dissipating ignorance and stubbornness, and ushering in a new era…”

“Your imagination, fierce and unrestrained like a flame, silently becomes an image and a metaphor.” —The original author of this poem was Goethe, which was written one year before Goethe’s death, that is, the final edition of “Faust” That year.

Dean Li’s boss apparently read Goethe’s work and adapted it.

There seem to be some secrets hidden inside Huahan Gene. They are a listed company. They disclose financial statements, but they do not disclose certain secrets.

In fact, everybody has secrets.

How many women does Lao Wang have?

This secret has never been made public, and perhaps the truth will never be revealed.

Mystery yields to higher mystery.

Do your own thing and it’s OK.
