Chapter 233: Genome Matching
In the middle of summer, June, especially in a city like Los Angeles, is definitely a time for young girls to fully show their energetic figures. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Just look at the whole coastal area, from Santa Monica all the way south to Long Beach, there are bronzed young men and women, and I don't know how many girls in bikinis sunbathe all day long, and even make it a hot topic on the radio.
At this time, it is afraid that the northern mountains and forests can be relatively cool, and when the words summer and little rain are combined, many people also choose to camp in the forest to spend their leisure time on the weekend.
"Daddy, here! Over here! I'm here~! ”
A teenager with short brown hair was running around the forest, wearing a light costume and holding a baseball bat, shouting at a middle-aged man not far away.
"Got it, Bryce, throw the ball!"
On a rare weekend, the teenager and his father went to the mountains to play, and by the way, they brought their favorite baseball activity with them.
"Attention, I'm going to throw it away!"
The boy flicked his arm and threw a baseball.
"Drink!"
With a bang, his father hit with precision!
"Wow! Home run! ”
The boy watched in amazement as the baseball made a perfect arc through the woods and skimmed in a high direction.
"What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and pick up the ball!"
"Okay Daddy!"
The boy happily ran in the direction where the baseball had landed, and at the same time, a group of birds flew overhead, and I don't know if they were alarmed by him.
The boy ran so fast that even the mountainous terrain could not stop him, and in a short time he ran a long distance.
"Strange, it should be around here."
He looked around curiously, Daddy's strength couldn't be so great that he couldn't have run a hundred yards, and baseball must be around here.
"Ah, there!"
Sure enough, it didn't take much time for the boy to find his baseball in a clearing.
He ran forward as fast as he could, but as soon as he reached the clearing, his pace stopped before he could.
What do you see?
The boy's mouth grew in surprise.
Outside the dense woods, at the end of an open meadow, was a mansion of astonishing size, and from a boy's point of view, there were few mansions in Beverly Hills that could match it.
This is a bungalow, which seems to be made of wood throughout, like most houses in the United States, but in terms of its size, one floor alone is enough to fit three or two teenagers. And with such an area, there are actually three whole floors!
However, at the end of this clearing, that is, in front of him, there was a sign on the ground with the words "Private territory, trespass and conceit". Although there was no barbed wire fence to stop him, the teenager did not dare to approach at will.
"Bryce?"
At this moment, his father's voice sounded behind him: "Where did you run to!?" ”
Only then did the boy come back to his senses: "Here, Daddy!" ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the massive mansion again before running back into the woods.
The huge bungalows stand quietly in the deep mountains and dense forests, and when night falls, the owls cooing in the woods, and there is no light in the windows of the bungalows. A cool mountain breeze blew, and the treetops rattled, and no sound could be heard except the only birdsong.
However, in the seven basement floors of the bungalow, it is brightly lit.
"Genetic mismatch."
Alice stared at the screen and said to Ashley, "There is at least a 0.35% deviation between Caesar's genes and the genetic fragments of his chimpanzees. ”
Ashley frowned, and although she had limited knowledge of biology, she could understand the meaning: "I remember...... The genetic match between humans and gorillas seems to be 98.5%, right? A 1.5% gap can make such a big difference, this little guy and ......"
He stopped halfway through the conversation.
She looked at Alice, and Alice looked at her.
The expressions of both of them were extremely weird.
"It's a chimpanzee in appearance, but it's not a chimpanzee...... Is it? ”
Alice stared at the computer screen, one of which showed Caesar's genetic fragments: "What caused its genetic mutation?" What are these variations? What is the difference other than intellectual superiority? ”
If you want to talk about which of the other three girls is most interested in scientific research, it is still Ashley, when Sissi and Maiya go back to their respective homes to find their mothers, she is in this secret base-like house, with Alice as a companion for boring experiments. If it wasn't for her research, Alice couldn't think of a second reason.
Ashley looked at the screen and suddenly thought of a question: "By the way, Alice, the experiment you have been doing is to compare the genetic samples of other chimpanzees with Caesar, right?" ”
"yes."
"You've compared all the categories, haven't you?"
"yes."
"Haven't found its mother yet, have you?"
"What the hell do you mean?"
Among the large number of data sources, except for the three that Alice first collected, there were dozens of female orangutans found from the three hundred orangutans in the entire jungle. If the mother had been found, it might have been possible to explain Caesar's cleverness, but after looking at all the samples, there was still no matching data.
Ashley's eyes lit up and she said excitedly, "What if we compare the genes of these female orangutans?" Maybe Caesar is a secondary mutation, but it definitely has a mother, and that mother's genes may be different from other female orangutans, right!? ”
Alice looked at Ashley as if she had known her for the first time.
Ashley was even a little hairy from her: "What are you doing, you'll be embarrassed to keep staring at me like this~"
Alice took a deep breath and looked at her with a smile: "Unexpectedly, Ashley, it turns out that you are also a science student, I thought you were a pure fashion designer." ”
"Of course, my math score is A! Sissi aspires to be an MBA, but she doesn't study as well as me! ”
"Hey, let's get to know, let's start a new protocol!"
Ashley's suggestion is indeed very constructive, and Alice has just reached a dead end, just thinking about the difference between Caesar and other kinds, but forgetting to start from her mother's point of view.
As a result, the data in the computer began to be mobilized.
In fact, in order to set up this laboratory, Alice took out a loan of more than one million yuan and bought a small supercomputer from IBM. At a time when a giant was in financial trouble, more than a million orders were not a small number, and until now, Alice remembers how grateful the person in charge was and thanked herself excitedly.
Seeing that the computer was working, Alice stood up and patted her back that had been sitting a little sore for a long time: "Let the progress bar go slowly, it won't be done in dozens of minutes." Ah~ I'm looking forward to a more advanced computer coming out soon, I can't wait to use it~"
Ashley came behind her with a smile and began to rub Alice's waist: "This is simple, as long as you go to Intel to apply for a position as a technical consultant, I believe they will be able to make a hundred times more advanced CPU next year!" ”
Alice smiled proudly, "Of course, computers are my best field." It's a pity that the computer is not as long as the CPU is fast enough to develop in an all-round way, memory, hard disk, motherboard, this is a difficult hurdle to overcome. ”
Ashley frowned while rubbing Alice's waist: "At present...... Which companies are researching this hardware? ”
Alice didn't answer immediately, she was surrounded by the noise of fans from the hard work of the giant computer, and she thought as she gently shook her body and enjoyed Ashley's massage.
CPU, motherboard, hard drive, and memory ......
There's even a power supply and chassis as well as ......
What if she set up a comprehensive computer hardware production company?
Of course, the brand still has to be called by the original name, such as Intel CPU, NVIDIA graphics card, Corsair memory module, Western Digital desktop hard drive...... Otherwise, as far as she's concerned, it would feel weird.
It's easy to do this, and it's almost effortless for Alice to take out the technology that existed in the scientific community in the previous life, whether it's an 8TB HDD or a 2TB SSD, or a single 16GB memory or something else.
But that seems to cause the trust phenomenon, right?
She had to figure it out for herself.
The so-called trust is formed by the merger of many enterprises that produce similar goods or enterprises that have a close relationship with the product, with the aim of monopolizing the sales market and competing for the origin of raw materials and the scope of investment. The participating enterprises lost their production, commercial and legal independence, the board of directors of the trust managed all production, sales and financial activities in a unified manner, the leadership was in the hands of the largest capitalists, and the original owners became shareholders and received dividends according to their shares.
Therefore, the focus of this definition is on the merger of multiple enterprises. Just like the common scene in many Japanese chaebol conspiracy theory film and television works, the scene of a dozen or dozens of capitalists conspiring at the table of a shareholders' meeting......
What if it was just a business in the first place?
Just like Cisco's subordinate products, there are Cisco switches, Cisco routers, Cisco IP phones, and Cisco firewalls; Or Microsoft's products, windowsXP, windows7, windows10, windows-server2003......
An enterprise can name its subordinate products arbitrarily, and no one stipulates that a company that aspires to become a comprehensive enterprise cannot be involved in multiple fields.
In that case......
"Alice?"
Suddenly, Ashley screamed and woke someone up from her lust.
"The match is out, this is Caesar's mother, right!?" (To be continued.) )
