Chapter 052: Immorality?

However, he was confused about the development of foreign countries, and he had never even been to the United States, so his understanding was really limited. Let's focus on reality first, he is still facing academic problems and needs to go to school to communicate with his tutor. In fact, it is mostly a form of walking, as a technology star, the school will give face.

Once you've taken care of it, take a stroll around campus.

The school is not too polluted by the social atmosphere, Meng Qian is not very old, but the psychological age is going up, frequent contact with the society, especially in the past half a year, I have experienced it, and I have seen a lot of materialistic things, and I like the current tranquility.

Walking in the warm sunshine and thinking about things in your heart.

Meng Qian is considering other business plans, although the current new energy business has only taken a small step, and there are still power batteries and new systems to develop in the future, which cannot be done in three or five years. But man's pursuit is endless, he is faced with a mountain of gold, does he only take a gold bar and leave?

And he had a worry in his heart: he didn't dare to guarantee when the technology in his head would disappear. Although he is still constantly comprehending, and he has a profound understanding in the aspects he likes, no one can say for sure in the future. Taking more gold bars from this "mountain of gold" is what a smart person should do.

So what's next?

Preferably in areas that are new, have a huge impact, and have a positive impact on society.

The new energy he chose earlier is an industry that is very standard-compliant. Other areas...... Medicine? But it's okay for him to copy some generic drugs, and the deeper research is not very interested. In the final analysis, only if he is interested, the degree and speed of comprehension will be faster.

For anyone it is, something that is not of interest, inefficient.

I found a bench and sat down, looking at the lively juniors and sisters on the lawn in front of me. There is a teacher with a camera, who is asking them to pose an angle to shoot, Meng Qian took a few more looks, this is probably a promotional photo prepared for college admissions, specifically looking for handsome guys and beauties, taking the idol route.

Meng Qian was also curious, so he focused his attention on that side, admiring these youthful girls, and recalling his college days when he was far away. But looking at the girl, I thought strangely that these energetic youth and beautiful faces would eventually grow old, so I could only stop in the camera.

His thoughts drifted away...... Then I caught the flash.

What if there was a technology that would last forever?

The dream of "immortality" has been tirelessly pursued thousands of years ago, from ancient alchemy, to the pseudoscience infused with young blood in Europe, to the modern rewriting of DNA, cloning, half-human and half-machine, human beings have never stopped exploring this aspect.

Meng Qian grasped this sudden flashing bright spot, entered a state of concentration, and followed the trajectory to find it.

Immortality is not realistic for him, and it is too far to live a few hundred years longer.

It is the most realistic and possible to effectively slow down the aging of the human body and live for several more decades.

Between immortality and immortality, Meng Qian tends to be immortal, and the reason is very simple: even if immortality can live to be 200 years old, he has already entered the stage of old age at the age of 60, and it is not interesting to live for so long; And "not old" is different, if you can be 80 years old and now 40 years old, how amazing!

The key to all of this will be biotechnology.

Meng Qian got some inspiration, through some kind of biotechnology to slow down the aging rate of cells, and at the same time increase the number of new cells, can you maintain a longer "young" growth? This kind of technology will involve genes, genetics, cells and other fields.

He needed to find the most effective and relatively easy solution.

"Stem cells?" Meng Qian aimed at this piece, and the shallow content was being digested by him.

Stem cells are known as "universal cells" in the medical field, which can differentiate into a large number of cells required by the human body, and have the potential function of regenerating various tissues, organs and the human body. It can be said that any part of the human body is obtained through the continuous differentiation of stem cells.

To put it simply, it holds the key to the door of "youth", and if it can crack its secrets, or artificially cultivate it, and then inject it into the body in large quantities, it means that there will be continuous new cells to replace the aging and decaying, so that human beings can be reborn.

Meng Qian's thinking suddenly broadened, although stem cells could not make him immortal, nor could he guarantee that he would live to be two hundred years old, but it was very possible to effectively delay aging, and it was very possible to have a forty-year-old body at the age of eighty; Combined with other biotechnologies, the effect may be even stronger.

Being able to keep yourself young forever is a temptation that no one can refuse. The industry derived from it will also be incomparably huge: anti-aging biotechnology, no one will refuse; Functional stem cells will overcome a large number of incurable diseases against diseases, and the prospects are immeasurable.

……

Because of the inspiration by chance, Meng Qian decided to enter this field.

Not just stem cells, genes, nerves...... He is interested in all the technologies that can help people slow down aging and prolong their lives - normal people want to be young forever and live longer. Meng Qian is no exception, even if it costs more money and more time, he is willing.

But this is obviously a long-term job and cannot be rushed.

Meng Qian started with stem cells, which are the most promising and the most studied by humans.

In the field of medicine, the use of stem cells for anti-aging has been conceived for a long time. However, due to the difficulty of cultivating functional stem cells, poor survival time and self-reproduction ability in the laboratory, and high difficulty of differentiation, it is difficult to artificially culture cells.

If he wants to do it, the first step is to get an efficient training program.

The second step is to master the accurate differentiation technology that allows the stem cells to differentiate into specific functional cells.

If the above two steps can be accurate and effective, it means that the stem cell culture and differentiation activities under human participation have been overcome...... To put it simply, for example, in "leukemia", the treatment is to transplant bone marrow, that is, to use the hematopoietic stem cells in it - but there are few suitable hematopoietic stem cells.

If the artificial culture and differentiation technology can be successful, the patient will no longer have to worry about making stem cells directly according to the patient's own needs, and then transplant until the disease is resolved. Whether it is cost or speed, it will make a qualitative leap and make a significant contribution to medicine.

This is the ability of stem cells.

Whether it is used for anti-aging, or in terms of diseases, its effect is not small.

Of course, he is not greedy for doing too much, Meng Qian mainly aims at anti-aging, and the temptation of eternal youth is very great, so he needs to set up a research laboratory to conduct research in this area...... Combined with the previous need to develop generic drugs, it can also be handled together.

There is now a solution to the problem of funding. After the discussion of the company's senior management, the operating income of the first year was calculated as 8 billion based on Warwick's contract, and the patent licensing fee paid to him was 280 million, because it was advanced in advance, and Meng Qian only needed 150 million.

With this money of 120 million after tax, Meng Qian can prepare for the establishment of "Wells Fargo Pharmaceutical", which covers two tasks: anti-aging technology research and development; Generic drug research and development.

……

Meng Qian threw the matter to the assistant to do, and he thought about the technology.

Because of the lack of biological foundation, he frequently went to school these days, wandered around the library, looked for materials, and paid himself to find a professional teacher in this field to make up for it, helping him better understand the technology in his head, and slowly changed from a novice to an expert.

Meng Qian was flipping through the books in front of the bookshelf when he touched his shoulder.

He turned around, and Gu Xinxin smiled: "Hey! ”

"Hey!" Meng Qian responded with a smile, "Come and read a book?" ”

"Remarks." She gestured to the book in her hand, "What about you?" ”

Meng Qian put back the book he had almost finished: "Find out if there is any secret technique of immortality." ”

"Immorality? Ha ha! Gu Xinxin covered her mouth and smiled, the clean place of the library is not very suitable for giggling.

Meng Qian showed surprise: "Is there a treat tonight?" ”

"You." She responded playfully.
