Ten minutes later, Chen Chen shook his head when he looked at the middle-aged man immersed in work in the study.
If it is not necessary, he actually does not want to force the other party too much.
Because he had seen the information of this middle-aged man before, he was a very capable talent. Although he did not start from scratch, he had shown amazing talents since he started working in his father's company at the age of twenty. The market value of my father's company has tripled in just one year!
Later, his father directly promoted his position to the general manager of the company, giving Adrian a stage where he could truly display his talents. From then on, like a fish leaping through a dragon's door, Adrian started his career in an unstoppable manner. His rise to prominence.
In just twenty years, Adrian turned his father's company with a market value of tens of millions into a super group with a market value of hundreds of billions and spread to all walks of life. Its business includes finance, electronics, entertainment, services, etc. Industry…
This kind of business wizard is so much better than the Wall Street conglomerates who have accumulated wealth for generations, and Chen Chen can't help but feel a love for talent.
It has to be said that behind the rise of every character, a legend can be written.
Thinking of this, Chen Chen sat down across from Adrian's desk, sighed and removed his invisibility.
"Um?"
Adrian was immersed in correcting documents, but he heard a man's voice coming from the quiet study. He couldn't help but look up, and immediately saw Chen Chen sitting opposite the desk.
Adrian looked blankly at the closed door of the study, then seemed to understand something, and stared at the man in front of him.
From Adrian's perspective, sitting opposite him was an ordinary-looking young man from Central China, probably in his twenties, with an extremely ordinary face. If he were on the street, he wouldn't even take a second look. .
However, when Adrian looked into the other person's eyes, his pupils suddenly shrank.
What kind of eyes are those? They are as dark and deep as a black hole, and can even absorb light. Even in a dim study, those eyes are extremely conspicuous...
At this time, the young man and Adrian looked at each other, and a smile appeared on the corners of their mouths. However, after seeing this jackal-like smile, Adrian instinctively felt a palpitation in his heart.
Even this young man's smile smelled like blood...
"Sir Adrian, I came here uninvited this time because I have something I need to discuss with you. Please forgive me for being presumptuous."
Chen Chen spoke calmly. Although he said this, there was no hint of asking for forgiveness in his tone.
"Who are you?"
Adrian took a deep breath and said seriously, "Also, how did you get in? Where are the bodyguards outside my door?"
"If he hadn't deserted, he would be coming in soon."
As Chen Chen spoke, the chatter in the study finally attracted the attention of the bodyguard outside the door, and a knock on the door came.
Adrian looked happy. As long as the bodyguard discovered his current situation, it would be easy to handle. Even if he did not remind the other party, as long as he remained silent, the bodyguard outside the door would notice something was wrong and respond quickly.
"Please come in."
However, what surprised Adrian was that the young man in front of him actually spoke for him.
"Click..."
The door to the study room was opened, and a man in a suit with a figure as strong as Stallone poked his head in, "Boss, I seem to hear you talking to someone..."
Before he finished speaking, the man saw Chen Chen with his back turned to him.
"Who are you… "
Almost instantly, the man understood the situation in front of him. He suddenly rushed in and quickly grabbed Chen Chen's hair with his right hand. Both his speed and explosive power almost reached the limit of ordinary people!
However, he only took two steps forward. The moment he took the third step, his head slipped directly from his neck, and then his body fell to the carpet with a thud, twitching continuously...
The blood spurted out like a high-pressure fountain with the beating of the heart, filling the expensive carpet. In an instant, the whole room was filled with the strong smell of blood.
"Crunch..."
Almost at the same time, the door to the study automatically closed again without any wind.
All this happened in a flash of lightning, so fast that Adrian had no room to react. It wasn't until the dust settled that Adrian felt chills all over his body.
What's even more weird is that the young man in front of him didn't move at all, or even blinked, and his bodyguard was killed instantly...
"how did you do it… "
Adrian asked in a hoarse voice.
"It's just a small trick."
Chen Chen opened his hand slightly, and an almost completely transparent playing card suddenly appeared in the palm of his hand, spinning gently as if it were alive. At the same time, he said with a sincere look, "I'm sorry to frighten you. I just wanted to prevent it." Someone interrupted our conversation, that’s why we did this, I hope you don’t mind.”
Adrian's face turned pale, and he wanted to apologize, but he was so frightened that he couldn't even squeeze out a smile.
"No one should bother us now."
Chen Chen gently put away the graphene poker, then stood up, walked to the bookshelf and silently looked at the rows of books on it, "Sir Adrian, I heard that your father has shown symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Already?"
"Yes… "
Adrian looked at Chen Chen, who was reading books as if no one was around, and suddenly asked, "Who sent you?"
"madness."
However, Chen Chen just took out a book and said calmly, "Why do you think there are forces behind me? Can't I come here myself?"
"..." Adrian didn't dare to refute and fell silent immediately.
"Sir Adrian, actually I came here this time to make a deal with you."
Chen Chen said again, "I know that the reason why you invested in Osmond Company is for their drugs to treat Alzheimer's disease, but why don't you try our Life Sciences City?"
"Life Science City?"
Adrian immediately understood Chen Chen's identity, and he shook his head, "I asked experts to analyze what you did in Life Sciences City. This technology can only inhibit the development of Alzheimer's disease at best, and has no ability to cure it at all. Moreover, although the patents for these technologies are controlled by Life Sciences City, they have been secretly popular in major nursing homes in North America, so there is no need to go to Life Sciences City."
"I understand."
Chen Chen nodded, turned around and looked at Adrian, threw back the book in his hand, and sat back on his seat again, "In that case, please take a look at your computer."
"my computer?"
Adrian was stunned, and then he saw that his computer was strangely running on its own. He saw that the computer uncontrollably opened a web page with the words 'God's Forbidden Zone' marked on it, and then the computer clicked on another chapter of information. , suddenly, a chapter of information about "Alzheimer's disease AD-001 specific drug" was displayed.
Looking at the above paragraphs of information and experimental data, Adrian suddenly showed a look of shock, and for a while he even forgot about his current situation.
"How, how is it possible..."
"Nothing is impossible, Sir Adrian."
Chen Chen smiled and said, "You should know that before the 'Aging Reversal Treatment' project was announced, many consortiums in North America and Europe were able to return to their youth thanks to our God's Forbidden Zone Organization. In fact, we have the most advanced technology in the entire Federation. We have advanced medical technology, and we have already developed a specific drug for Alzheimer’s disease, but it has not been announced yet.”
"Why not announce it?"
Adrian couldn't help but said with some doubts, "You should understand how powerful this drug will be once it is announced. It will even be as influential as your first achievement of developing a vaccine for the 'Black Light Virus'."
"This starts with the purpose of our 'God's Forbidden Zone' organization."
Chen Chen smiled lightly and said, "Our God's Forbidden Zone was founded voluntarily by a group of people who are committed to the pursuit of extending life. Its goal is to break the Haiflik limit of the human body and obtain the right that only gods have - eternal life."
"Eternal life?" Adrian asked, "This is impossible. No matter what it is, it will decay, even metal will decay."
"Nothing is impossible. The so-called death is actually just a misunderstanding."
Chen Chen shook his head, "Your Excellency, you should know that we have a general name for the progress of living things - evolution. For nature, evolution has no reason to let us live longer than now, as long as we can live to give birth to offspring, and It’s enough to raise offspring until they are old enough to protect themselves.”
"Therefore, for the evolution of life, it is actually enough for humans to live to the age of 30. Gene mutations that extend life additionally are not favored by natural selection, so as we humans grow older, there will be various All kinds of weird genetic diseases appear."
"This is actually quite boring, isn't it?"
Chen Chen spread his hands and said helplessly, "It is precisely because everyone will die, so we always say that death is inevitable. We look at aging just like we look at time. They keep moving forward, and we have no way to stop them..."
"but… "
Suddenly, Chen Chen changed his words, "Actually, this assumption is wrong. Feynman, the founder of nanoscience, once mentioned that in all biological sciences, we have not found any evidence to prove that death is inevitable. One day, biological Scientists will discover what is causing our death and cure this terrible 'disease', and the human body will no longer be just a temporary container... "
"In fact, aging and time are not tied together. Time will always move forward, but aging does not necessarily."
Chen Chen pointed at his head, "Think about it carefully, Mr. Adrian. Aging is just the use of the body's constituent materials. A car will get old if it is driven for a long time, but will a car definitely age? If you can have a perfect repair Technology can directly replace old car parts. Wouldn’t this car be able to drive forever?”
"The human body is just more complex, but it's essentially the same as a car."
After hearing Chen Chen's words, Adrian suddenly fell silent, seeming to be thinking about how credible Chen Chen's words were.
"Because we wanted to try to live forever, we united major consortiums in North America and Europe and launched a project called the 'Human Life Escape' project, with the purpose of extending human life as much as possible."
"Of course, if there is no evidence, even if I tell lies, Sir Adrian, you won't believe it easily."
Chen Chen made a gesture of invitation, "But it doesn't matter. You can temporarily access any files on this webpage. You can take a look at what's inside."
Adrian nodded. He closed the information about the drug AD-001 and opened the information about the specific cancer drug again. He suddenly showed a look of shock, "This is completely different from the anti-cancer drugs you have announced. This is The fourth anti-cancer drug!”
"Yes."
Chen Chen nodded, "Although Blackwatch Company has only announced three anti-cancer drugs, in fact, we already have six anti-cancer drugs that can completely cure cancer, and there are more than ten anti-cancer drugs being tested. , the reason why it is not announced to the outside world is just because our God’s Forbidden Zone is still a membership system.”
"membership?"
"It means that because some technologies are too shocking, in order to prevent impact on society, we are temporarily only open to a few people."
Chen Chen explained, "The few people here refer to the members who have joined our God's Forbidden Zone organization. We rely on the investment of major consortiums to develop new drugs. When the research and development is completed, they will naturally be used by major consortiums as soon as possible. Yes, this is how our God’s Forbidden Zone works.”
Hearing Chen Chen's words, Adrian finally showed a trace of emotion on his face, "So, what is your purpose of coming to me this time?"
"I came here this time for two purposes."
Chen Chen said, "First, invite Mr. Adrian to join the God's Forbidden Zone Organization, and second, we want to purchase all the shares of Osmond Company from you."
"If I join, will I be able to enjoy various unpublished drugs on the website, including AD-001?" Adrian's eyes lit up.
"Yes, just because of your identity, you are not qualified to join the 'Council of the Twelve Apostles' in our God's Forbidden Zone. After all, you are still a little short of the established consortium. However, if you are willing, you can choose an alpha-level member. This is He is second only to the most senior member of the Disciples’ Council, but he does not have as much power as the Disciples’ Council, nor does he have the quota for free medical care.”
"The money aspect is not important, I just want to get this AD-001."
Adrian shook his head.
"This is not difficult." Chen Chen replied, "As long as you can transfer the shares of Osmond Company to us, it is enough."
"Are you afraid that Esmond Company will develop a second drug to treat Alzheimer's disease?" After hearing this, Adrian finally came to his senses, "So, Osmond's research direction is correct. of!"
"Yes."
Chen Chen nodded, "So, Sir Adrian, can you tell me your answer?"
Hearing this, Adrian's expression flickered, "I am willing to join God's Forbidden Zone, but... what if I refuse to hand over the shares of Osmond Company?"
Chen Chen smiled when he heard this and said nothing. He just turned his head and looked at the body on the carpet that was getting cold.
Seeing this scene, Adrian immediately understood what Chen Chen meant. He sighed and nodded, "I understand, I need to think about this..."
"No problem." Chen Chen nodded, stood up politely and said, "Please give me the answer as soon as possible."
With that said, Chen Chen directly opened the door of the study room, walked out of the room, and disappeared into the long and narrow corridor.
Looking at Chen Chen who was gradually disappearing, Adrian looked uncertain and was completely lost in thought.
