There have been some hurdles in the company's R&D progress.
To be precise, it was the development of the Corbist 1 laboratory that was much behind expectations. In fact, several other labs have been running relatively well, and even some progress has been made in the joint development project with NYU's Oakheed Lab, but the Corbist 1 laboratory, led by Gilbert Gordon's most elite and largest team, has not made any progress so far.
In the past period, this laboratory has sent out dozens of corpses of different shapes, and several test subjects are consumed almost every day, so that the researchers can calmly face these strangely shaped corpses, and even eat without changing their faces.
At this time, Li Jie, accompanied by Gilbert Gordon, was sitting on the control platform in the center of the laboratory, calmly and attentively observing the experiment. Above the wall behind him, a huge corona pattern of black and golden suns overlapped was inlaid like a king from above, looking down on the earth with the majesty of a high king.
This is the logo that he spent a lot of money to invite the top VI (Visual Identity System Visual_Identity) design company to tailor for Corona. And, of course, a full set of visual symbols and recognition systems. The establishment of this system helps to enhance the sense of identity and belonging of the company's employees, and provides strong psychological support.
Almost everyone who sees the Dujitz logo of the Corona Company can feel the awe-inspiring momentum and deep meaning that comes to their faces, which involves visual symbols, psychological suggestion and subconscious.
As the data on the various dynamic displays fell silent again, it was clear that the physical injection experiment of the gene reagent failed again.
"I'm sorry, Boss, for disappointing you." Gilbert Gordon's face was gloomy, his eyes fixed on the screen, as if trying to see the reason for the failure.
"Take it easy, Gilbert. Don't forget, you're still the best scientist. As you often tell you, there's never an end to research. Li Jie's face did not show much disappointment, but closed the information in his hand and stood up to comfort Gilbert.
Thanks to the work of Shadow Fiends, such as Ray Stein and March, more and more new demons have joined his ranks, and these demons have provided a wide variety of raw materials for the synthesis of genetic reagents in the Corbyst 1 laboratory. To date, however, none of the combinations have succeeded in sustaining the subject's body - not even the synthetic reagents, which have been weakened countless times over, and all experiments have ended in the subject's collapse.
Is this because the subject is too fragile to withstand the power of the demonic reagent?
Li Jie doesn't think so.
From the outside, the creatures of the earth, led by humans, are simple and fragile. But at the micro level, the human body is far more complex than you think.
For many years, human beings have been tirelessly exploring the question: what is the miraculous power that enables life to maintain the characteristics of the species itself in the process of reproduction, and produces differences within species and between individuals? Why, in the case of human beings, can we ensure that the process of reproduction has a basic uniformity, but there are obvious differences between individual people, such as the wonderful changes between eyes, ears, mouth and nose - the difference can be seen with the naked eye alone?
It was not until 1953 that scientists Watson and Crick discovered the double helix structure of DNA, and people's research on the inheritance of life information entered a new height. DNA, the full name of Deoxyribonucleic_acid, Chinese called deoxyribonucleic acid, is a long-chain polymer with a constituent unit called four deoxynucleotides, which is composed of bases, deoxyribose, and phosphoric acid. In short, DNA is the main chemical component of chromosomes, a molecule whose main function is to store information for a long time, and it contains instructions that are needed to build other compounds in the cell, such as proteins and RNA. The DNA fragments that carry genetic information are called genes, and some of the other DNA sequences function directly by virtue of their own structure, while others are involved in regulating the performance of genetic information.
In the following 1985, American scientists proposed the "Human Genome Project", the core of which is to accurately sequence the human genome composed of more than 3 billion base pairs, discover all human genes and determine their position on chromosomes, decipher all human genetic information, and enable human beings to fully understand themselves at the molecular level for the first time.
The Human Genome Project, along with the Manhattan atomic bomb and the Apollo program, is known as one of the three major scientific programs, with the participation of governments, institutions, companies and scientists from several countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, the French Republic, the Federal Republic of Germany, Japan and China. Finally, in the new century, on June 26, 2000, the working sketch of the human genome was completed.
It is worth mentioning that Gilbert Gordon was also involved in this project.
With such a complex human body, even with the aid of demonic knowledge, it is impossible to explore the true mystery so easily.
The entire human community and countless scientists have been studying for more than half a century, but they still have not gained much. So much so that what do human scientists on Earth think today?
The latest research published by the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom concluded that only 8.2% of human DNA has an important role, and the remaining DNA is evolutionary residues, just like the appendix, which is not beneficial to the human body and is not harmful. Dr. Gurton Lunter, the head of the study, went so far as to say, "The vast majority of DNA in the human body doesn't play an important role, it just occupies space." ”
Researcher Dr. Chris Rands said: "We tend to think that all DNA in the human body has a role, but in fact only a few are significant. The latest study was published in a recent issue of the journal PLoS Genetics.
Is that really the case? The vast majority of DNA in humans is of little use?
Li Jie believes that on the contrary, these unproven DNA are just more mysterious, which can only show that the potential of human beings themselves is too great.
"But all the test data shows no signs of success, and humans ...... It's so fragile! Gilbert Gordon said with a little annoyance, he who was gradually transformed into a demonic physique by Li Jie's bloodline, and from the bottom of his heart, he had begun to feel a sense of distance from the human race.
"Gilbert! Never take any race you don't fully understand because you don't know what potential it has, especially if it's capable of occupying the top of a planet's food chain! Li Jie's expression was solemn, and he turned his head to look at this newborn bloodline descendant, and there was a faint golden flame rising in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, Boss!" Gilbert's face was stunned and he bowed his head respectfully.
"Think about it another way, Gilbert. Is there only one way to synthesize genetic reagents? Li Jie returned to a calm state, looking thoughtfully at the busy researchers below. Use your expertise, mobilize your mind, and don't forget that you are a brilliant scientist. ”
"Boss, you mean...... Genetic modification at a more subtle level through human intervention? Gilbert Gordon thought.
"To give full play to the power of human science, this is an era of the big bang of science and technology." Gilbert Gordon's transformation from human to demon was so fast that he almost forgot what he was doing, which was not what Li Jie intended, but fortunately, after being reminded, he finally reacted.
There seems to be a bit of irony in this as a pure-blooded Demon Monarch admonishes to believe in science, while a human-born scientist is even more superstitious about simple and brutal power after being converted to demonic blood.
But as long as you live long enough, you will understand that the success of anything must have its own success, the difference is only whether you are good at using it.
That's right, since direct genetic reagents are difficult to make progress for a while, it is better to walk on two legs and try to carry out smaller, more subtle genetic modification at the same time. In a sense, this is another trial of reduced dose combinations.
