Chapter 91: Each has a ghost

The situation at this moment is indeed as Chen Yuyue expected, and there is nothing unusual.

Chen Yuyue is located in the right position to see the artificial lake in the backyard of the hotel through the window, and everything is calm.

The meeting in the conference room is also going on as planned, and all procedures are proceeding normally.

"All of you here are all experts in the field of genetic research in Huaxia Biotechnology, so we all know very well that Huaxia has the potential to become a breakthrough leader in the field of human genetic improvement. ”

The man who spoke was Kangda, a top expert on human genetics, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was known worldwide.

Conda looked only forty or fifty years old, very young, in very good spirits, and his physique was also very strong, and ordinary young people did not look healthier than him.

However, the results of numerous studies show that in the face of rapid science and the prospect of modifying human DNA, public opinion in many countries is divided into two types: for and against, and even the vast majority of people tend to oppose various ways to improve genes. Professor Kang continued, "You are all aware of this. ”

There is a lot of controversy about gene editing right now.

After a pause, Professor Kang continued: "The simple reason is that once embryonic cultivation is carried out on the basis of non-medical indicators such as physiognomy and intelligence to create a new generation of individuals with perfect abilities, it will lead to increased inequity because they have a clear advantage over others. ”

"Professor Kang, the research we are doing in this field is not aimed at creating the so-called 'perfect human', our research on gene editing and genetic improvement is based on the treatment of serious diseases. Ye Xuefu was the first to put forward her own opinion: "There are no experiments on non-medical indicators. ”

Professor Kang smiled slightly: "You are Mr. Ye of Tianya Biological Group, right?"

"Yes, Professor Kang. Ye Xuefu nodded, this was the second time she had seen Kangda, and she still couldn't believe that the real age of the middle-aged man in front of her was sixty-five years old.

"I'm sure you can assure you that the starting point of your research on gene editing is to treat serious diseases, to address children who are born with severe diseases like leukemia. Professor Kang said lightly: "But I can't believe that everyone is you." ”

Ye Xuefu was stunned for a moment.

"If you tell a rich man that you can edit and improve the genes of his offspring, so that the child is born with a 'perfect human', both intellectually and physically, what kind of price do you think the rich man is willing to pay for this?" Professor Kang asked rhetorically.

Ye Xuefu thought for a long time, but did not answer.

Professor Kang smiled and gave his answer: "If I were that rich man, I would be willing to give it my all." Because I firmly believe that if my descendants can become perfect human beings, everything I have done today will be regained in the near future, and more than twice as much, because no one can compete with my descendants. ”

It's a fact.

Professor Kang's words, although straightforward, are undeniable facts.

No one is trying to improve genes now, and that's because of concerns about the safety and high level of risk associated with genetic modification.

In the treatment of diseases, such risks can be tolerated, but if it is for the purpose of changing appearance and intelligence, its nature is beyond the scope of medicine, and it is not so easy for people to accept.

Once genetic research exceeds a certain level, safety issues and high risks are controlled, there will be a qualitative change in human acceptance, which is also certain.

"Professor Kang, this is not about this issue. In the middle of the left side of the conference room, a man with a wide body and a fat body touched the light of his "Mediterranean hairstyle": "You throw out such a view, it seems that you are opposing the research of genetic improvement?"

Professor Kang shook his head: "No, I definitely didn't mean that, I just wanted to say that there must be people with unscrupulous minds in our field. ”

"I don't need to be reminded by Professor Kang, I just checked in yesterday, and there were already uninvited guests trying to snatch the information report I had brought with me. ”

"That's right! The attack yesterday was outrageous! Although we were all mentally prepared, we couldn't imagine that this had just been invaded and that we didn't know what else would happen as the meeting progressed. ”

Professor Kang didn't come to the hotel last night, so he didn't know what was going on, but when he came to the hotel this morning, he found that the security was heavy, and now that he heard them, he didn't have to guess what was going on.

"It seems that I am right to be worried, in short, the mastermind of yesterday's invasion must be our insiders, if not those of us here. Professor Kang smiled faintly: "Our meeting is really eye-catching." ”

"Professor Kang, what you're worried about is that people with ulterior motives want to integrate all the research data and then try to do genetic improvement for non-medical indicators?" Ye Xuefu frowned, this is really dangerous.

Conda nodded: "That's right, that's what I meant." ”

"We all came with people, we were unprepared last night, so we were caught off guard by them, and now we are prepared, so there is no need to be afraid of them at all!" A loud voice sounded: "If they dare to come again, then let them have no return!"

Mediterranean spoke up again: "I didn't catch anyone last night, and next time I want them to come and go, and don't talk big." ”

Ye Xuefu was very confident because Chen Yuyue was present: "If the hotel's emergency power supply had been activated earlier yesterday, maybe those intruders would not have escaped." ”

"Miss Ye, I appreciate your confidence, but you can't help but look at things too simply. Mediterranean shook his head: "I really don't have any confidence in the safety of this meeting. ”

"That's because you don't have confidence in your bodyguard. Ye Xuefu said lightly: "I believe that all of you here, since you have chosen to come here, you must know that there will inevitably be a crisis in this kind of core seminar on genetic research, and it is impossible for people to not exist." ”

Professor Kang clapped his hands and applauded: "What Mr. Ye said is right. ”

"Miss Ye is right, I don't need Professor Kang to tell me, I naturally understand in my heart. Mediterranean smiled: "But if I want to quit, it is also my own right." ”

"Since you want to quit, don't come in the first place, and quit when you come, what does that mean?"

"Yes, are you kidding us! Everyone took the time to put down all the work they were doing and came here, are you fooling us!"

Several people spoke up to express their dissatisfaction with the Mediterranean's withdrawal.

Mediterranean also shook his head helplessly: "I can't say that, I definitely don't mean to play anyone, I came here because I believe in the security work here, but I encountered danger as soon as I moved in, and I had to consider my personal safety." ”

"Everyone's safety is important here. Professor Kang smiled slightly, trying to ease the atmosphere: "If the most dangerous person is probably Miss Ye, she is the only woman in the participants this time." ”

Ye Xuefu also smiled: "Professor Kang don't worry, what should happen will always happen, and I won't back down since I'm here." ”

"Yes, we are all here, we have to make some gains, wouldn't it be a pity to give up the discussion because of a little thing?"

"We don't stop anyone who wants to leave, but those who can come have signed an agreement, and if they don't share, they will be in breach of contract, and whoever wants to go can share their company's results in human gene research first, and then it's not too late to go." ”

"Okay, then let's talk about it if you want to go, what we don't plan to go is time. ”

Everyone is talking about the Mediterranean.

The Mediterranean Sea was targeted by everyone, and he still sat in his place lightly, smiled, and said casually: "If I don't plan to share your achievements, then there is no need to share mine, right?"

"Then you're in breach of contract?"

Mediterranean finally put away his smile and raised his voice: "What if I break the contract! It's just a sharing agreement! Since I don't enjoy it, I have no obligation to share!"

People who have been laughing suddenly lose their temper, and the shock will be more obvious.

So after Mediterranean's words, the atmosphere became quiet and awkward.

Ye Xuefu didn't expect that this defeated guy would suddenly turn his face, this has already been said, and whoever answers it can only quarrel.

At the same moment, Chen Yuyue, who had been looking down at the artificial lake from the window, suddenly noticed that there was something strange on the water surface.

He noticed it when he was running in the morning, and the lake was calm and the wind was blowing lightly.

And during the time outside the conference room, the lake was also quiet.

But at this moment, there were suddenly two waves.

Although Chen Yuyue didn't see anything else, his sixth sense told him that there was something wrong under the lake, and a sense of foreboding rose in Chen Yuyue's heart.

"Prepare to take Mr. Ye away. Chen Yuyue quickly turned around and said to Xia Ke.

Xia Ke looked dazed, there was still a meeting inside, and there were people guarding the door of the conference room, do you want him to go over and open the door to call someone? Will Mr. Ye be embarrassed then?

Before Xia Ke could ask, the door of the conference room was pushed open from the inside.

Mediterranean said angrily: "I came here voluntarily, and I should leave here voluntarily! No one can stop me! No one can make me do what I don't want to do!"

"You're breaking the rules of our business!" the loud voice in the conference room also came out.

"Rules?" Mediterranean turned his head disdainfully, and then his two bodyguards also stepped forward to meet him: "The rules are set by man!

At this moment, Chen Yuyue also rushed to the door of the conference room, and he saw Ye Xuefu next to the oval conference seat at a glance, and quickly beckoned.

Ye Xuefu was also stunned when she saw Chen Yuyue, and asked him what he was going to do with blank eyes.

"Mr. Ye, the situation is wrong, leave here with me first. Chen Yuyue saw that Ye Xuefu didn't know the situation, so he didn't care about any unruly rules, stepped forward to help Ye Xuefu get the information, grabbed her wrist and took her away.

The rest of the bosses were also dumbfounded when they saw this.

Professor Kang looked around, as if he was afraid of something.

Before Ye Xuefu could recover from her senses, she was taken out of the conference room by Chen Yuyue.
