In the research institute, it took Chen Chen less than a month to replicate the experiment in Shangdu.
Seeing the eight SD rats in the cage with their fur regaining its luster and acting younger, everyone's eyes were filled with shock.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have thought that a month ago, they were old rats that were about to die
Of course, returning to youth comes at a price. Before the experiment, there were a total of twenty-five of them, but in the end only eight survived.
The chance of survival is less than one third.
"Through CT scanning, it can be determined that the experimental target, whether it is bones, muscles, hematopoietic function or even liver organs, has signs of rejuvenation."
The researchers on the side looked at the rows of detected data and expressed wonder, "It is very consistent with the totipotency of mesenchymal stem cells."
“It’s just that the survival rate is too low,” someone lamented. “It would be perfect if the survival rate were higher.”
"It's the subject's problem."
However, Samuel on the side made a rare rebuttal, "They are old rats. Their body functions have long degraded to the extreme. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are not treatments for rats. The fatality rate is too high." Nothing more than normal.”
During this period of time, as Chen Chen ate and slept with a group of scientific researchers, he showed amazing achievements and talents in the biological field. The entire institute was convinced, and no one looked down upon Chen Chen anymore.
You know, those who can become a scientific researcher are aloof at heart. Perhaps most of them have no business talent and can only work for the company, but this does not mean that they are willing to be inferior to others.
Samuel, for example, has no regard for the people on the board of directors.
But Chen Chen was different. Only by following a boss who was more capable than himself could he convince them.
Therefore, it only took half a month for Samuel to change his attitude from being disdainful at the beginning, to being suspicious later, and now becoming Chen Chen's die-hard loyalist.
"Mr. Samuel is right that this experiment was never intended for rats."
Chen Chen, who was silent on the side, suddenly said, "So next, it is the turn to use primates for experiments."
"Is it too fast?" The previous researcher hesitated, "Should we try medium-sized mammals next? Moreover, the approval and WAP process are not easy... "
WAP is the abbreviation of "World Association for the Protection of Animals", a group of humans dedicated to safeguarding the rights of animals.
It would not be wrong to say that they have made significant obstacles to scientific research. Obstacles to development will not hinder development, but they do have an impact on the development of biology.
The 19th-century French physiologist Claude Bernard once said: Life science is a magnificent and brightly lit hall, which can only be reached through a long and eerie kitchen.
Blindly sympathizing with the weak will not bring about moral sublimation. The fortress of human civilization is destined to be built on the bones of countless races.
"Yes, but not necessary."
Chen Chen thought for a while and said, "Primates are the best choice. Their similarity to the human body alone means that they will increase the survival rate during chemotherapy by more than 50%."
"Furthermore, I will discuss this matter with Mr. Winn first. I think as long as there is a suitable political donation, he should be able to approve it as soon as possible based on his connections."
Everyone nodded in confusion.
"So in the next period of time, everyone can start making preparations. Next time our experimental subjects may be a group of macaques or even chimpanzees."
Chen Chen agreed.
Chimpanzees are extremely similar to humans. Chimpanzees share many of the bones that humans should have. Chemicals in the human brain can be found in chimpanzee brains. Even genetically, chimpanzee genes are the closest to humans.
However, a popular science often appears on the Internet nowadays, saying that the genetic difference between humans and chimpanzees is only 1.2%, and 98.8% of the genes between the two are exactly the same.
Although the data is correct, this statement is actually a misunderstanding of genes.
After all, if we only compare based on data, the genetic similarity between a banana and humans has reached an astonishing 60%.
In fact, the genes of two organisms are like two books in the same language, one is "Journey to the West" and the other is "Water Margin".
Although the text is the same, the articles, books, and papers written can be ever-changing.
You can never say that two novels are 100% close just because they use the same words, nor can you say that the two books are 90% similar because 90% of the common words in the books are the same.
But having said that, chimpanzees are still the experimental animals with the best observational results besides human experiments.
…
After the experiment, Chen Chen rushed towards the office building.
A few hours later, when Chen Chen left in a hurry again, Wen En sent Chen Chen to the gate of the office building.
"I knew it was not that simple for this kid to keep me."
Wen En shook his head with a wry smile. Now that he had taken over Chen Chen's task, it seemed that he could only show off his old face and deal with those stinky politicians.
Chen Chen, who had just left the office building, suddenly received a call.
"Hello, are you Mr. Chen Chen from Blackwatch Company?" There was a female voice on the phone, speaking English instead of German.
Although the pronunciation is not standard, the voice is very unique, with a hoarse and sweet taste, which reminds people of words such as sexy beauty.
"I am, who are you?"
"My name is Bernadette Lydia, deputy director of the Namibia Investment Center." said the voice.
"Hello, nice to meet you."
"No, I should be rude. After all, I strongly requested to speak to you in person."
The female voice on the other end of the phone was full of apologies, "Because I really can't believe it, so please forgive me for confirming again. Do you really want to invest in a nuclear power plant project in our country?"
"Sorry, I do have the intention to invest in a nuclear power plant in your country." Chen Chen slightly pointed out.
"Ah! Sorry, sorry, it's me, Meng Lang."
The person on the phone apologized profusely, "Then when will you be available for an interview? If you are busy recently, I can rush over to meet with you myself."
"That's not necessary."
Chen Chen's tone was a little cold, "I will first send a group of inspection teams to inspect the various alliance countries in the African region. They will probably visit your country next year or so, and we can have detailed discussions then."
"Mr. Chen Chen, actually this is not necessary."
The person on the phone suddenly became anxious, "The African region is indeed vast, but due to political issues, many countries have been at war all year round, and few have the same stable public security and political environment as our country."
“Not only that, our country also has the third largest uranium mine in the world, the Hushan uranium mine, with the highest development potential in Africa.”
"What's more, the holding company of Hushan Uranium Mine is your country's China General Nuclear Power Uranium. Presumably, with your size, you will be less likely to have accidents when cooperating with companies in your own region, right?"
"Are you making a decision for me, Ms. Lydia?" Chen Chen's voice sounded a little unhappy when he heard this.
"Sorry again, really sorry... I was just too impatient."
The other end of the phone apologized again, "I'm really sorry, really..."
"That's all."
Chen Chen said again, "How about this? You contact my company directly. In the next few days, I will send a few employees to your country for inspection. If you can really provide enough discounts, I can consider directly working in your country." Establish the project.”
"Ah, really? That's great!"
The voice on the other end of the phone was extremely enthusiastic, "Thank you for your generosity. I never thought that I would meet such an outstanding man like you. I really hope you can come soon. I am really looking forward to that day..."
There are inevitably some hints in the last words. Together with the laziness and elegance, they can even arouse the deepest desires in the heart.
However, Chen Chen couldn't help but shudder when he heard the hint.
You know, this is a black car...
