Chapter Twenty-Nine: Holden Radcliffe

Hoden Radcliffe, biologist, transhumanist, passionate about human modification, has an extraordinary talent for artificial intelligence - of course, this talent is generally mentioned to the exclusion of Tony Stark...... And Dr. Reed Richard, uh...... And maybe Dr. Hank Pym?

Well, in short, this person wants to transform the human body into a creature with supernatural powers, whether biological, mechanical, or electronic, and there are a lot of scientists who are keen to study this, but their research is difficult to get funded due to social ethics and other pressures.

There are even many scientists who have been stripped of honor for quietly carrying out such research, and they will be wanted. But since the war between Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D. became public, their spring has come.

In particular, the transformation plan on the biological side is very popular, and the current North American eagle is not to mention that there are superhuman races everywhere, but it is not uncommon - Zhang Jinyang's Terrigen is still a bit too much - so there is no shortage of experimental raw materials.

Dr. Radcliffe, his transformation direction is fully electronic - this thing is not acceptable to ordinary people.

He advocated that the human brain should be extracted and put into an artificial organism with a sophisticated structure that can replace all the senses and functions of the human body, and that as long as the life of the brain is well maintained, human beings can live forever - it is said that human brain cells are the only cells in the human body that can divide and reproduce forever without attenuating their lifespan.

The average decay lifespan of an ordinary somatic cell is 120-150 years, which varies from person to person. There are some special somatic cells, such as heart cells, that do not even have a chance to decay and divide once, and if they are damaged once, they will be permanently damaged and there will be no chance of repair.

It is based on this that he believes that the human body is too fragile, and the repair cycle is long, difficult, and the service life is short, and it is far inferior to the industrial products that can be mass-produced after the design is completed, and the damaged part can be replaced at any time.

For such a scientist with outstanding achievements in electronic bionics and artificial intelligence, it is actually the head of insecticide research and development in a pesticide factory - the main research direction is parasitic organisms, and the tadpole eyes of Shida Shinsuke are alive and almond.

He carefully investigated the company, called GT Agrochemical, and found that this company was not cute at all, destructive pesticides, genetically modified food, and this company seemed to be established to destroy the food security of human beings around the world.

No matter how you look at this place, it wasn't enough to attract someone like Dr. Radcliffe, until he saw the company's owner: Trencia Corporation.

The company is familiar to Shinsuke Shida – or rather to Zhang – one of Dellürn's competitors, and its focus is also on smart living, and its neuronal signaling interface is so good that its main business is in the medical industry.

They are very weak in mobile phones and home appliances, but in terms of medical equipment, they are strong in competition with Stark Group - although they have not won a few times.

It seems that the main purpose of this doctor in this company is to use the resources of the main company, and with the strength of the Trensia company, it is not difficult to build a mechanical human intelligence framework.

But it seems that it is difficult for such a person to accept the invitation of Doon Pharmaceutical, because Doon is indeed only a biological company, and does not sell dog meat like GT Agrochemical, this Dr. Radcliffe is obviously not interested in this, why would Burton put this person on the list?

It took some time to investigate Radcliffe, and Burton, under the authority of Shishida Shinsuke, had recruited several young single scientific researchers with great spirituality - these people were not noticeable, they were missing, and as long as their social security numbers were still paying taxes normally, no one cared if they died at Zenith.

In the face of the boss's question, Burton was very honest: "Hoden and I are classmates, in terms of ergonomics.

He has a lot of ideas, but our pursuits are different, I am pursuing the artificial reconstruction of the biosphere, but Hoden ...... He just wants to understand how the human body works and replace them with something, and he is a man who seeks immortality.

He's also very timid, and he'll do anything with a gun pointed at his head – no one knows that better than I do. ”

Burton is very sure that his old classmate will definitely accept the "invitation" of Shishida Shinsuke, and he himself should not be managed by this kind of invitation - so his relationship with Horden must not be very good, and he will still cheat others after so many years.

As for the changes that this person can bring to the company, Burton is also very confident, and Shida Shinsuke can probably understand the origin of this confidence.

If the information about Hoden is true, then Hoden must be extremely skilled in human-machine communication and simple artificial intelligence architecture, and with the nature of his current work, he must have his own set of knowledge about insects, so it is theoretically feasible to devise a communication method for dung beetles.

And since Hodden is in pursuit of longevity, he must also be interested in this kind of mutation research that can greatly enhance biological instincts, maybe he can achieve longevity and strength through genetic mutation without any brain transplant - the living body is no better than the cold virtual mechanical senses.

Anyway, Burton didn't want all his desires to be the result of physical instincts, but the result of interference through chemical synthesis - it would be good for an artificial organism to have senses, and to reach the level that humans are born with, with current technology, it is not to think about it.

Shishida Shinsuke also saw what Burton didn't want to admit - from this point of view, the two classmates must have a bit of a dirty past - that is, in fact, when it comes to the study of parasites, Dr. Hoden Radcliffe's ability should be above him.

Although Burton always considered himself a brilliant scientist, the unfortunate reality was that he was far more capable of planning and managing research projects than he was professionally researching, and he was a great laboratory manager, but not a great researcher.

Holden is different, his professional ability is very good, but he doesn't know much about the laboratory management system: Shida Shinsuke got some of the doctor's living habits, as well as rough data of the laboratory, as the owner of the laboratory, he can see at a glance - Holden is doing his own experiments through the company's resources, the kind without permission.

According to the procurement of some materials, there is a detective standing behind him, Shishida Shinsuke is very sure that this experiment should be related to eye modification, but I don't know if it has been completed...... Where this is used.

Burton mentioned in his report on the recruitment of Horden that Horden had a stake in an old club, a familiar name: Bucharest, where Barnes, the Winter Soldier, had been discovered not so long ago, and the captain and the Free Birds had not yet returned from the ice sheet.
