When Lin Youde arrived at the institute, Sophie was already waiting.

"You called me over, that's a big step forward, right?"

"Knowingly asked." Sophie put on an unhappy face, but didn't hold on for a few seconds before laughing, and it seemed that she had really made a lot of progress. She made a gesture to invite in, and then led Lin Youde all the way to the deepest part of the institute.

On the way, Sophie couldn't help but introduce to Lin Youde: "The idea of producing results now is a new idea that I only came up with a year ago. I was at a gathering of scientists listening to people from the Institute of Biology discussing DNA and transcriptional reactions, and it occurred to me that I had an idea. The most basic part of life is actually not much different from inorganic matter, DNA itself does not have such a thing as life, it is just a substance, and the DNA extracted separately can be preserved forever as long as the preservation method is appropriate, and there will be no failure unique to life. So, where does the distinction between living and non-living things come about? ”

"When did you turn careers and become a philosopher? Does the new way of thinking refer to a kind of philosophical speculation? ”

"Daddy!" Sophie glanced at Lin Youde complainingly, "I'm just thinking about this by the way, don't keep making fun of me." ”

"Good ......"

"But scientists and philosophers have some kind of origin, and many people who study basic science are also philosophers, such as Descartes, who studied mathematics. And Dad, the geniuses of your Institute of Theoretical Physics now smell a bit of philosophers, and there is always an atmosphere around them in the scientists' salon where ancient Greek scholars are discussing the ultimate truth of the universe, and we guys who are engaged in applied science don't dare to approach ...... at all."

Lin Youde himself recalled the table of the basic science masters in the large-scale dance party held by his family on New Year's Day and other holidays, and felt that Sophie's analogy was really appropriate.

"Back to the point," Sophie continued, "I was at that meeting and it suddenly dawned on me that I could refer to the practices of living beings. I can construct DNA, and then use other intermediates to produce the protein I need from the DNA. Of course, I'm not saying that I'm going to make some kind of DNA strand, I'm going to make the same strand out of something else, and then trigger a similar reaction. So after that meeting, I worked with the DNA department of the Institute of Biology to get a comprehensive understanding of the whole process of making new proteins from DNA within an organism, how its energy comes from, how it works, and how each step occurs. I even helped them take their research a big step forward and won them this year's Nobel Prize in Biology......"

Lin Youde glanced at Sophie, in Lin Youde's subjective feelings, the Nobel Prize is still very good, but in fact, the Nobel Prize in this time and space is not so high, it was established much later, and it is not as concerned as another time and space. However, it still represents the highest honor in the field of science.

"So, you're now reproducing the process of making proteins from DNA in living organisms with inorganic macromolecules?"

"That's right, of course I'm not making proteins, I'm making inorganic macromolecules. At the beginning, I wasted a lot of effort in order to choose the right reaction environment, Dad, you may not know how important water plays in living organisms, only in an environment full of body fluids can DNA transcription proceed normally, without those fluids, the whole reaction can not occur smoothly. The same goes for inorganic matter, I originally thought that a stable magnetic field was the best environment to react, but then I realized that I was wrong. The best reaction environment is still the liquid environment, and the solution with various water-soluble compounds is the best reaction environment, and the magnetic field is only an auxiliary. ”

At the same time as Sophie's words fell, Lin Youde and the others arrived at the large real yàn room that seemed to be their destination.

In the center of the room stands a huge glass jar, the entire jar is filled with water.

"We put the jar at the strength of 0. 3 to 0. 7 In the magnetic field that increases or decreases in the range of Tesla, the changing magnetic field produces an electric field, which exerts a force on the charged particles in the solution, which provides energy for the whole reaction. Driven by the changing magnetic field, the inorganic macromolecules acting as 'enzymes' in the tank began to produce new inorganic macromolecules according to the molecular chains we put into it as templates, and the original solution in this reaction tank only accounted for one-tenth of the entire volume, but the inorganic macromolecules produced made the solution concentration increase rapidly beyond the critical concentration, and then the macromolecules began to precipitate. ”

"Then you increased the amount of solution to speed up the production of macromolecules, right?"

"Yes." Sophie turned her head and looked at Lin Youde triumphantly, "Dad, do you know what this means?" Almost all of the materials I have made have weaknesses in productivity, and failure to mass produce them is their eternal dead end, but with the gradual deepening of research, I believe that one day all those inorganic macromolecular materials that bear my name will be mass-produced. ”

"Good, very good." Lin Youde smiled with satisfaction, "By the way, let me ask, what is the number of Sophie macromolecules that this jar is producing now?" ”

"This is a newly made Sophie H, an 'enzyme' synthesized specifically for this idea."

"So you use specially synthesized Sophie H and templates to produce Sophie H?"

"Yes, it's just to see if that idea can be realized."

Lin Youde pursed his lips.

"And what about the characteristics of this Sophie H itself?"

"It's a crystalline powder with similar physical properties to quartz, except that it's soluble in water."

Isn't that completely useless?

"But we haven't tested what would happen if we added it to the alloy, and we've been busy with this reality lately, and Sophie-H's testing has been delayed."

"Anyway, you just want money to expand your real room and increase the number of people, right?" Lin Youde directly picked out, and Sophie immediately grinned.

"I knew it." Lin Youde shook his head, "However, for the sake of you really making something amazing this time, I approved it." I'll say hello to your eldest sister. ”

Sophie immediately jumped up and hugged Lin Youde, rubbing Lin Youde's body with her flat and hard chest.

"Dad, I like you the most!"

"Yes, yes, got it."

"By the way, Sophie H is actually a bit of a strange characteristic."

"Oh?"

"This thing seems to be absorbed by the human body, and one of my researchers, one of them accidentally fell into the jar where Sophie H was stored, and he took a large mouthful of it into his stomach, but when we examined his excrement, we didn't find Sophie H at all."

Lin Youde couldn't help frowning: "Didn't find it?" ”

"Well, I didn't find it at all. So I ordered him to be quarantined for observation. ”
