207. Heart of the Machine

Shuguang District, at the entrance of the city's first hospital.

Qin Yang leaned on his classic car, wearing the black windbreaker from last time, his body was thin, and his long Japanese decadent hair was all pulled back of his head and tied into a ponytail.

He was playing with a few silk threads with both hands, flexibly knotting them and then unwrapping them, repeating it over and over again.

Seeing Bai Ye get out of the taxi, Qin Yang put the silk thread into the pocket of his windbreaker, showed a given smile, and stepped forward to greet him: "Yoo!" White is really fragrant. ”

After getting into Qin Yang's classic car, Bai Ye wondered and asked, "Suddenly come to me, is there anything wrong?" ”

"You're busy? I can't come out with you if it's okay? Qin Yang lit a cigarette for himself, and when he heard this, he raised one eye and looked at Bai Ye, "Anyway, how are you doing with breaking the net?" Is it the first in the whole server? ”

He spoke in a nonchalant tone, as if getting the first place in the whole service was no different from going to the street to buy a cabbage.

"Okay, the top 10 should be fine."

Bai Ye touched the tip of his nose and replied more humbly.

Qin Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, took out a cigarette in his mouth, took out two badges from the inner pocket of his windbreaker with one hand and the inner pocket of his windbreaker with the other, and threw one of them to Bai Ye and said, "The hospital organized a visit to 'Second Life', I think you should be interested, so I helped you apply for a place." ”

Second Life is a world-renowned medical technology research and development company, and its main research results are the 'mechanical heart' that claims to be able to treat all diseases and give the human body a new life.

Although this technology has been available to the public since the end of last year, its purchase cost of up to 100 million Huaxia coins is not affordable for ordinary people.

Moreover, the 'Second Life' company is also relatively low-key, rarely carries out technical exchange meetings with the outside world, and has always carried a veil of mystery in society, there are not many reports about the 'mechanical heart', and Bai Ye's understanding of it is limited to the fact that it may be able to cure his own 'strange disease'.

Qin Yang is a cardiac surgeon at a hospital in the city, and it is reasonable and logical for the hospital to send him to the Second Life Company, which is very authoritative in cardiac research.

……

Second Life is headquartered in the waterfront area of Huanhai City, adhering to the company's mysterious and low-key style, and the company's building is also simple but not simple, which is completely incomparable to the sci-fi landmark of another tech giant in Huanhai City, the 'Phantom Engine' that developed the super online game "Pale Dawn".

After getting off the viaduct, I came to a building with a silver-gray exterior and a shape that looked like the letter 'H'.

In front of the company is a small plaza with a sculpture of an abstract heart made entirely of alloy erected in the middle of the square.

Parking the car in the underground parking lot of the building, Bai Ye and Qin Yang took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor of the 'Second Life' company.

As mentioned earlier, the 'Second Life' company building is simple but not simple, and its appearance looks ordinary, but when he entered the building, Bai Ye found that the sense of technology inside was very strong.

Although the area of the hall on the first floor is not small, most of the 'staff' in it are simulated machines, and there are also efficient and silent drones shuttling back and forth overhead.

In the center of the vestibule is a giant bust of a man in his fifties, dressed in a white research gown with the Second Life company logo, black hair combed back of his head, his hands resting on his chin in a contemplative motion, and his eyes looking straight ahead, his gaze full of depth and determination.

"Professor Zhou Yucheng, it is he who developed the 'mechanical heart' technology." Qin Yang seemed to have done his homework before coming, and introduced him on the side: "He is my senior alumnus, and he also graduated from Huanhai Medical College before, and it is said that he also worked in a city hospital for a period of time when he was young......

Bai Ye stared at Professor Zhou Yucheng's bust projection for a while, and somehow, he suddenly felt that the person in front of him became more familiar the more he looked at it, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

"Do we have a chance to meet Professor Zhou during today's visit?"

He didn't doubt his feelings, thinking that when the two of them met face to face, maybe he would be able to remember where he had seen him.

"Just kidding, Professor Zhou is very busy, how can he have time to accompany us to visit the company." Qin Yang shouted exaggeratedly, and then reminded Bai Ye again: "Take advantage of today's opportunity, don't forget to consult with the company's personnel about purchasing the Heart of Machinery." ”

While talking, some of Qin Yang's colleagues who had been given the opportunity to visit also walked over from the direction of the elevator, and Qin Yang went over to say hello to them.

When the people arrived, a female android with the name 'Kara' on her chest politely led the doctors of the city's first hospital to show around the company building.

……

In a large laboratory on the second floor, Bai Ye and the others finally saw the magical 'mechanical heart'.

It was an artificial heart with a metallic silver-gray hue, beating rhythmically.

It seems to be made of some kind of special nanomaterial, and with each pulsation, the surface will be like a sea of grass blown by the wind, and countless fine metal particles will appear, like waves and rhythms.

"The Mechanical Heart Technology is not just a heart replacement surgery." With a smile on her face, Carla introduced to the few people present in a soft, soothing voice: "It will replace a whole set of circulatory systems in the human body. ”

This complete set of circulatory system will cover all organs and blood vessels that are directly and indirectly related to the heart, which is almost a replacement of the body's interior.

"In that case, what's the difference between that and changing a big living person into a mechanical transformer?"

Qin Yang spoke up at this time and raised a question that the public was puzzled by.

Mechanical transformation people are illegal in China, whether it is the transformer and the transformed, once discovered, they will be punished by law.

Qin Yang's voice of questioning was not small, and the female android Kara immediately turned her head to look at her, and replied with a smile: "That's not the case, we only replace the heart for the patient, and the replacement treatment in other aspects will be carried out by the mechanical heart independently." She stretched out her hand to the nano-metal particles that pulsed on the surface of the mechanical heart, "There are hundreds of millions of nano-scale robots on the surface of the mechanical heart, and after activation, they will automatically disperse into various organs and blood vessels of the human body for repair and protection. ”

"At present, we only use this technology for patients with cardiovascular diseases, and only medical heart modification does not violate the "Human Body Modification Regulations" promulgated by Huaxia." Carla patiently popularized the content of the 'mechanical heart' for everyone, "In addition to being used for treatment, our mechanical heart technology also has the effect of prolonging life, according to research, the average annual life of humans who replace the mechanical heart can be extended by about 30-50 years......"

After saying this, the learners present all let out a sound of amazement and began to talk about each other.

Although the level of science and technology in 2065 is very advanced and advanced, there is no technology that can directly extend human life, except for the more widespread diseases that can be solved in medical aspects.

If this mechanical heart is as magical as Kara suggests, then its significance to humanity can be described as epoch-making.
