Chapter 246 The company is out of money

Chen Weidong asked the biology department to send him some relevant information.

I will work normally in the following days, reading these materials in my free time, and searching for relevant content introductions on the Internet.

Professor Kruger painted a beautiful picture for him, but he didn't completely believe it.

There is no immortal creature in the world. It is as simple as some lower animals in the deep sea. They can live for tens of thousands of years, but they will inevitably die in the end.

From another perspective, complete immortality is not a good thing.

As the saying goes, anything goes to the extreme, and anything taken to the extreme will bring unpredictable consequences.

From relevant information, Chen Weidong found arguments that corroborated his ideas.

In academia, the theory of telomeres and telomerase is not the only school of thought. Even if this school of thought finds the right direction, it can only find a research link in life sciences, but cannot ultimately solve this problem.

The human body is a very complex complex, the result of the interaction of many mechanisms.

The telomerase theory can only solve the problem of cell division and aging, but there is still a biological clock mechanism in the human body. Once the limit of this biological clock is reached, even if there is no shortage of telomerase, death will still occur.

However, in theory, telomerase is indeed a temporary solution that can extend human life to a certain extent.

According to some scientists, the limit of human life is three thousand years, which is a conclusion reached after referring to various life science theories.

Chen Weidong doesn't quite believe this statement.

Three thousand years is too long. To maintain such a life span, it is estimated that very harsh conditions are required. It is impossible to popularize it to the general public.

However, some scientists have shown that cultured human cells can only divide for 50 generations. After 50 generations, the cells will age and die no matter what method is used.

Based on this theory, it is speculated that the limit of human life span should be around 120-150 years old.

Chen Weidong is more inclined to accept this view.

This is also the level that the biological sector is currently most promising to reach.

Normal human life span is about 80 years. If human life span can be extended to the limit of 150 years, then in theory everyone will live one more life.

Maybe there will be a different life?

Just when Chen Weidong was thinking about this problem, Chen Jie opened the door and walked in.

He basically runs out every day and rarely stays in the company. After listening to Chen Weidong talk about this matter, he actually put forward a different view.

He said that not everyone wants to live that long.

For some people, one hundred and fifty years may not be enough to live, but for some people, it will only make them tired.

When Chen Weidong heard this statement for the first time, he was immediately puzzled.

Normally, everyone should want to live a long life. This is the instinctive pursuit of living things. How can you think that you live too long?

Chen Jie continued: "You may not have paid attention, but two years ago banks launched housing loans, which can last up to thirty years. This means that if a person buys a house, he cannot get sick within thirty years.

You can’t lose your job either.”

"But for most people, this time is already a very long time, it can even be said to be half a lifetime."

"I have been walking on thin ice for so many years. Not to mention the financial pressure, even the psychological pressure is very huge."

"Perhaps you think that the breakthrough in biology that extends human lifespan to 150 years is something that benefits all mankind.

"But have you ever thought about it, if there is no quality of life, no matter how long you live, you will still suffer. Longevity cannot solve the existing contradictions and problems."

"Moreover, what impact will this incident have on social order?"

"Like, how should we define older people at that point?"

"Or, if those banks offer loans with a term of one hundred years, what do you think the world will look like?"

.....

Chen Weidong originally wanted to argue with him. Not everyone needs to buy a house, but as a reborn person, he naturally knows what will happen next.

Reason told him that what the third uncle said was right...

Chen Weidong was cautiously supportive of the research in the biological department, so he chose to buy an island not far from Hong Kong as their ideal research site.

The entire laboratory is very strict, with special guards patrolling at all times. Outsiders cannot approach this isolated island at all.

Laboratory No. 1 was first built and put into operation.

This is the biocomputer laboratory.

The enthusiasm of researchers in the biology department, led by Professor Kruger, far exceeds that of other departments.

In the laboratory, they used nutrient solution tanks to cultivate human brains in a targeted manner to study the operating mechanism of the brain, hoping to create a perfect bionic biological computer.

From this perspective, researchers in the biology department have entered the forbidden area of ​​human research. In a normal research environment, their crazy research behavior cannot be tolerated.

Laboratory No. 2, which was subsequently invested, looked like a very ordinary research institute on the surface.

But in fact, it is divided into two departments: internal and external.

Externally, it operates under the banner of a hospital and specializes in treating disabled people with disabilities. The price is very low, and treatment is almost free.

But a large amount of clinical data will also be collected during the treatment process.

Even if the treatment is ineffective, they will generously provide large monetary compensation so that the patient's family can leave with satisfaction.

All work in the biology department is carried out with caution.

They carefully grasped the scale of the research and tried to operate within the scope of their control. They always maintained that the confirmatory experiments lagged behind the progress of theoretical research so that they could intervene at any time.

Because of the distance problem, Chen Weidong rarely goes to the biology department.

But every time I go there and see those green nutrient solution tanks, I can't help but have some strange thoughts in my heart.

If this continues, will it become the Umbrella company in "Resident Evil"?

After worrying for a long time whether something would go wrong in the biology department's research, as the research went on the right track, his attention was attracted by other things.

Time enters April 2001.

With the joint efforts of more than a hundred researchers in the electronics laboratory, Infinite Company's liquid crystal technology has made great progress.

Compared with Sony's LCD screen, apart from being a little hot when running for a long time, the color and clarity are very close to their products from last year.

I believe it won’t be long before they can get rid of their dependence on Sony’s LCD technology.

It has to be said that most research projects can quickly catch up with the progress by throwing money, such as memory, hard disk technology, etc...

But if a company carries out hundreds of research projects at the same time, then no matter how big the family is, it will not be able to bear it.
