Liu Wei's $50 million purchase was not a loss, and the geographical location of the island was ideal. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Before returning home, Liu Wei let the "Falcon" fly around the island a few times, and also flew to the sky above Easter Island for a week. The nearest international route to the island is 1,200 kilometres to the north, and the density of ships on the route is not large, mainly freighters from Wellington to Santiago. The air route is more than 2,000 kilometers away in the north, and there are several international flights connecting the island countries of Oceania with South America.
Due to some delays, the Falcon landed in Fiji to refuel when it came time to return.
If you have to talk about the problem, distance is the biggest problem.
A round trip, to say the least, takes three days.
On the way back, Liu Wei has been considering whether to build a temporary base in a nearby country to shorten the time it takes to enter and leave his "homeland".
After going back, Liu Wei immediately entered the transformation center for the second round of reconstruction.
This round of transformation is the most risky, because Yuan Changqing wants to replace Liu Wei's heart.
Although in terms of body structure, human beings have evolved more thoroughly, and the body structure can maximize the ability of the brain, but the human heart has many problems, and it is far from perfect. As the source of blood circulation, the heart weighs only 200 times its body weight!
The heart is too small, which seriously weakens the physical strength of human beings.
Even in terms of brain function, the vast majority of people have less than 10 percent of the brain's weight because the blood supply is insufficient.
This problem is particularly prominent in Liu Wei.
Although with the assistance of gene inducerin, Liu Wei's brain domain development has long exceeded 30%, and after Yuan Changqing's debugging, it has exceeded 40%, but the heart has been under high load for a long time and has shown signs of failure. If it weren't for the slow progress of related research, Yuan Changqing would first replace Liu Wei's heart.
Like the first round of re-transformation, Yuan Changqing used a cloned heart that matched Liu Wei's genes.
Because the volume of the cloned heart was three times that of the original heart, and the weight was three times higher, before the transformation, Yuan Changqing had to expand Liu Wei's chest cavity and remove the left lower lobe. The lack of a lung lobe did not have much impact on Liu Wei, because when transplanting the clone gills, Yuan Changqing adjusted the gene and used gene inducer to generate new alveoli, which increased Liu Wei's respiratory efficiency by 50%.
The main problem with this renovation was how to reduce rejection.
Although with the help of gene inducers, Liu Wei's body will gradually accept the new heart, but there is no substitute for the heart, and short-term rejection will make Liu Wei die.
To this end, Yuan Changqing used Liu Wei's cloned organs to conduct many experiments.
After making sure that nothing was wrong, he replaced Liu Wei's heart.
Unlike the first round of remodeling, surgery is required this time.
At this time, others knew that Yuan Changqing was still a very good surgeon.
Of course, advanced surgical equipment plays a very important role. Some of the $300 million was spent on medical equipment for heart transplants, including a very expensive surgical robot and an equally expensive circulatory system.
The operation lasted almost eight hours, with two interruptions in between.
The main reason is that Yuan Changqing is old, and his energy is not as good as that of young people, so he needs to take a breath halfway.
After completing the operation, Liu Wei was admitted to the intensive care unit, where he remained in complete isolation for 72 hours. After making sure that there was no rejection, Yuan Changqing let him return to the transformation center and enter the glass container filled with nutrient solution, so that his body could return to its normal state as soon as possible.
It is not the body that needs to be restored, but the gene inducer hormone in Liu Wei's body.
Because it is necessary to protect other organs during the operation and speed up the recovery of the wound after the operation, the gene inducer in Liu Wei's body has been consumed.
After soaking for 24 hours, Liu Wei left the transformation center, and the second round of remodeling was completed.
After letting Liu Wei recuperate for a week, Yuan Changqing conducted a modified physical fitness test on him. The test method was proposed by Liu Wei, that is, to carry a weight of 100 kilograms in a decompression chamber and test physical fitness on a treadmill with an inclination of 15 degrees. The atmospheric pressure in the decompression chamber is only two-thirds of the sea level, which is about the same density as the air on a 4,000-meter plateau. Because the gravity does not decrease, the weight is not light at all.
The test lasted for twenty-four hours, and was finally terminated by Yuan Changqing.
It's not that Liu Wei can't run, with his current physical fitness, it's no problem to run for another twenty-four hours, but Yuan Changqing is worried that his new heart can't bear such a big load.
This result immediately stunned several other FOS fighters.
Although with the ability of a FOS warrior, he can run at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour for a day and a night under the same circumstances, but he will definitely be tired after running, Liu Wei did not look a little tired, but after leaving the decompression chamber, he ate a lot.
"Don't do strenuous exercise in the last few days, and do the third round of transformation after half a month." Yuan Changqing measured Liu Wei's blood pressure and pulse, "The transformation result is even more satisfactory than I expected, the main thing is to avoid rejection, and tell me if there is any abnormal feeling, understand?" ”
"Professor, are you bothered?" Zhou Yulong said for Liu Wei, "What's the matter, let's talk about it after dinner." ”
Yuan Changqing shook his head with a smile and put away his stethoscope.
"Old Yuan," the Mobei wolf called Yuan Changqing, "Can this retransformation also be used on us?" ”
"Theoretically, yes."
"What do you mean?" Mobei Wolf grabbed Yuan Changqing and sat him down.
"Reinvention is for everyone, not for everyone. The main thing is to choose the right gene fragment, so it is necessary to grasp the genetic information of the modified person. This is a very troublesome thing to do, and it takes time and a huge investment. "Yuan Changqing knows what Mobei Wolf is thinking." Although 99 percent of human genes are the same, with less than one percent difference, there are hundreds of millions of gene pairs for this one percent difference, and they are distributed among 23 genes, which must be found one by one. ”
"You can tell me, can or can't, and if so, what are the requirements?"
"Absolutely, it just takes time and money."
Mobei Wolf nodded, and said with a smile: "There is time, I will find a way to fund it." Well, get me some of these things next time. ”
"This ......"
"Let's talk about it later." Liu Wei said for Yuan Changqing, "The equipment can be used, the main thing is time." When I'm done, I'll let Professor Yuan study your genes. ”
"And me." Zhou Yulong hurriedly interjected.
"One by one."
At this time, Li Tingxuan came to the laboratory.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yuan Changqing hurriedly slipped away and went back to prepare for the third round of transformation.
"Lao Li, what kind of wind blew you here?"
"I heard that you 'went down the mountain' today, I'll take a look." Li Tingxuan sat down.
Liu Wei rolled his eyes, in Sichuan dialect, "down the mountain" means to be released from prison.
"The manor over there in Switzerland is ready, do you want to go over and have a look?"
"Switzerland!?" Liu Wei was stunned for a moment and said, "Come on, the Swiss police know what I look like, isn't going to Switzerland now tantamount to throwing myself into the net?" ”
Li Tingxuan smiled and handed a photo and a mirror to Liu Wei.
"What?"
"See for yourself."
The photo was taken by a surveillance camera, and it was a little blurry, but it could be seen that Liu Wei in the mirror was completely two people.
The two rounds of reinvention also changed Liu Wei's appearance.
At this time, Liu Wei was a little puzzled.
The two rounds of re-transformation are mainly to transplant cloned organs, and if Liu Wei's genes are not changed, his appearance will not be changed. It's just that Liu Wei's current appearance is indeed completely different from when he went to Switzerland a few months ago, and he has become two people. Because the change was gradual, Liu Wei himself didn't notice it, and the people around him didn't notice it.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know, you can ask Yuan Changqing."
"It's supposed to be a genetic fusion."
As soon as Zhou Yulong said this, Liu Wei and Li Tingxuan both looked at him.
"There are new gene fragments in the transplanted organs, and these gene fragments enter Liu Wei's body through gene inducers, which changes his genetic structure and changes his appearance through cell regeneration." Zhou Yulong smiled and said, "I'm guessing randomly, don't take it seriously." ”
"Anyway, now you won't have trouble going to Switzerland."
Liu Wei nodded and didn't say much.
"I helped you arrange a new identity, Zhou Fen and Bao Liuqing stayed to assist Yuan Changqing, and the others went to Switzerland with you." Li Tingxuan stood up, "The scenery over there is very good, but it's almost summer, so if you want to ski, you have to wait for more than half a year." ”
The next morning, Liu Wei and the others boarded a flight to Switzerland.
The Falcon has returned to France, where Dassault has carried out maintenance of the airframe and power system, and has added some necessary equipment to meet the new requirements.
Because the manor in Switzerland was left to Yuan Changqing, and it was still the base for the follow-up project of the FOS project, Liu Wei did not bring his family who was still spending time in Hong Kong.
When clearing the customs, Liu Wei was a little nervous, but he didn't encounter trouble.
Swiss police are still hunting down bank robbers, but not much.
After coming to Bern again, Liu Wei stayed in the capital of clocks for a day because they were accompanied by Takeuchi Kotone and others, bought a few souvenirs, and tasted the unique flavor of Swiss cheese. Probably because there was not enough money in his purse, Liu Wei did not buy those frighteningly expensive watches.
I have to say, this is a big pity.
Genuine Swiss watches, all handmade, each watch unique.
It's just that the price is absolutely unique. The most common hand-mechanical watch costs tens of thousands of euros, which is equivalent to a round-trip ticket for eight people.
Early the next morning, eight people took two cars and headed to the manor at the foot of Jungfrau Mountain.
The environment is indeed beautiful and secluded, with the nearest neighbors more than ten kilometers away. There were mountains, water, trees, meadows, and a row of stables.
What a piece of feng shui treasure!
