Zhang Heng looked at the groups of embryonic stem cell lines under the microscope with excitement in his eyes.
At this time, a week had passed since Thompson and others were implanted with biochips.
During this week, Zhang Heng purchased a large number of scientific instruments related to cloning, which are among the world's top equipment and cost tens of millions of dollars.
On the other side, Zhang Heng also ordered Li Yiru and Fang Hao to return to China, and then apply for visas and passports to India, so that they could once again find ways to acquire a large pharmaceutical factory in India in the name of expanding production.
Li Yiru was very puzzled by Zhang Heng's decision. India is indeed a major pharmaceutical company, but most of its products are generic drugs, which have nothing to do with drug research and development. It would undoubtedly be child's play to act rashly just because India holds one-third of the world's huge profits.
India does have a huge market, but the relationships in it are also intricate. Without any local relationships and government relationships, it is impossible to gain a foothold. Not to mention making money, if you don’t lose everything by then, it will be regarded as Brahma’s appearance.
However, Li Yiru did not have the ability to change Zhang Heng's mind, and she would not know what Zhang Heng's purpose was. Therefore, as a subordinate, she had to agree to Zhang Heng's request.
Then, Zhang Heng plunged into the branch laboratory in Singapore and worked day and night on the cloning experimental project with three other employees.
At this time, the stem cell line in the culture dish in front of me is the result of four people working for several days.
"BOSS, these stem cells are perfect and can be used for the second step." Zhao Qing wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a look of relief.
"Very good, Zhao Qing, you continue to extract the nuclei from the stem cells, and try not to damage the structure of the nucleus. Nanye, you go pick out a healthy egg cell and extract the nucleus inside. Thompson, you are going to fine-tune the DNA encoding of the nucleus, but I won't I hope the clone that emerges will look like me.”
While Zhang Heng was giving orders, he was constantly writing lines of data on the paper. These data may be incomprehensible to laymen. Only people who are also scientific researchers will understand how precious these formulas are.
In fact, when the three of them learned that the cloning project Zhang Heng invited them to participate in was to create clones, they were all shocked.
Since the emergence of Dolly the cloned sheep in the 1970s, most countries have banned research on human cloning. After all, humans have been following sexual reproduction for thousands of years, and the emergence of human cloning will break the laws of genetics and human traditions. The reproductive model may even lead to ethical confusion.
The "Prohibition of Human Cloning Agreement" believes that human cloning is detrimental to human dignity and violates social ethics and moral standards. Therefore, human cloning is inhumane and unacceptable. This is the first legal document prohibiting human cloning.
The World Health Organization also passed a resolution that the use of human asexual reproduction (cloning) technology goes against human dignity and morality and must be strictly prohibited!
It is precisely because of this that the three of them did not expect that Zhang Heng's so-called cloning experimental project was actually a human cloning experiment that was frowned upon by the world! However, when Zhang Heng showed the mature cloning technology information brought out from the alien plane in front of the three of them, the three of them were even more shocked.
These data are not the modern semi-finished cloning method at all, but a simpler and more efficient mature cloning technology! The three of them even saw several mature genetic technologies that only existed in theory, or even had no theory at all!
One of the most shocking ones is the rumored 'thought implantation technology' and 'DNA coding modification technology'
Thought implantation technology - input corresponding virtual memory into a blank brain to create an absolutely loyal personality. In addition, other types of knowledge can also be input, such as language, science, culture, etc.
But there are also limitations, that is, this technology is only useful for the brain that has not formed a personality. In other words, only the blank brain of the fetus can carry out thought implantation, but this technology can be used for the brain that has formed a personality. But it was of no use.
DNA coding modification technology - by fine-tuning the structure of the DNA coding region, changing the appearance of humans, or optimizing genes, so that embryos will have a stronger body in the future, and even the personality, way of thinking, emotions, etc. of the cloned person can be preset in advance.
These two heaven-defying technologies are even more precious than the cloning technology itself! Unfortunately, each has its own shortcomings. The technology of modifying DNA coding is limited to the human embryonic stage, and cannot be modified by already born babies or adults.
Under Zhang Heng's order, Thompson soon sent the new cloned embryo to Zhang Heng.
"This is a mature cloned embryo formed by extracting the nuclei from your blood cells and combining them with enucleated egg cells, and the chromosomal DNA in the nuclei has been completely adjusted."
"Through DNA adjustment, I set the appearance of the cloned embryo to be randomly assigned, set the height to be about 1.8 meters in adulthood, and set the gender to the male with the strongest physical strength, and discarded all the secretion of emotional hormones from the other party, and, Cloned embryos can mature within days in a culture chamber."
Thompson placed the petri dish in front of Zhang Heng and reported the results of his work. These data results were incredible even to him.
If he hadn't personally used surgical equipment to adjust the embryo's telomeres, he wouldn't have even believed that there were such advanced technologies and equipment in the world!
Since the discovery of DNA in 1953, humans have continued to decode their own DNA. However, until today, no one has ever heard of anyone completely cracking the mystery of DNA.
DNA is like the most perfect lock in the world. It provides mankind with a door to the road to the gods, but it also locks mankind's dream of taking off...
However, at this time, the technology of modifying DNA coding in my hands has taken a big step forward on the road of DNA decoding! Although there is still a long way to go before we can completely decode DNA, it is more than a hundred years more advanced than the technology currently on the market!
Coupled with the nanometer-level control of surgical machines, modifying the structure of DNA in the nucleus becomes an extremely simple task.
Thompson's expression was full of sighs. He was a little lucky. If he hadn't chosen to join this project, he might never have known that such amazing technology existed in the world...
"You did a good job." Zhang Heng nodded with satisfaction. At this time, his eyes were also filled with fire. This cloned embryo was a clone created based on his own DNA.
Zhang Heng knows that because his DNA has been optimized by the original solution of the T virus, he has a physical fitness comparable to that of Superman. It can be said that there is no other being in the entire human race who is stronger than his own physical fitness, so he uses his own The clone army created by DNA is also understandable.
Perhaps, for outsiders, the emergence of clones has both advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that it is very likely that the clone will replace the identity and occupy the magpie's nest.
Countless science fiction movies are tirelessly writing similar stories.
However, Zhang Heng is not worried that the clone will betray him or even take over the magpie's nest, because he used coding technology to adjust the appearance and body shape genes of the cloned embryo. After the clone is cultivated, in addition to the genes, the two of them will There will be no resemblance in appearance.
Moreover, Zhang Heng also removed all emotional hormone secretions from the clones at the genetic level. The clones born by then will have no so-called emotions, so-called joys, sorrows, and joys, let alone fear of life and death!
Some people only have the will to obey orders, and Zhang Heng's orders are the highest criterion for everything.
Moreover, Zhang Heng will also implant biochips in the minds of all clones as a second insurance, so that he can easily control the life and death of each clone.
Only in this way will the clone army formed by Zhang Heng be invincible and invincible!
