Meng Chao's mind was spinning, and he roughly sorted out the whole thing.

also figured out why Gao Ye chose to kill Xie Xiaolei at this time.

In the past, the two were partners, and although Takano had a talent for biochemical modulation, he was not good at business operations and shopping mall fighting.

He needs Xie Xiaolei to preside over the overall situation of "Lingchuang Biology" and provide a steady stream of funds for his research.

But now, "Lingchuang Biology" has won the order for the No. 20 underground rail transit line, and seeing that a broader market is opening up in front of their eyes, as long as Gao Ye is sure that his technology is excellent, even if there is no Xie Xiaolei, a professional manager, can completely maintain the company.

In this way, Xie Xiaolei will lose its use value, and it will hinder Gao Ye's further experiments and let him evaporate, which is the best choice.

But if you think about it along this line of thought, Meng Chao still doesn't understand a little: "I don't understand, aside from the relationship between you and Xie Xiaolei for so many years and the relationship between you and Xie Xiaolei for so many years and the joint entrepreneurship, killing people is risky after all, is it really necessary to go all the way to the black?"

"You are the co-founder and second largest shareholder of 'Lingchuang Biotech', and you master the company's core technology.

"Everyone's ideas are really irreconcilable, it's a big deal to break up in two, you take your own and start a new stove, can't you build a second laboratory?

"If the 'consciousness transmission technology' you are talking about is really so good, it is simply beneficial to the country and the people, and you don't have to worry about finding investors, why do you have to risk the world's condemnation and put yourself in a very disadvantageous situation?"

This question seems to hit the nail on the head.

He was silent for a long time, so long that Meng Chao thought he wouldn't speak.

Only then did he whisper: "There will be no investors." ”

Meng Chao said: "Why? ”

"Because, you're right, the current 'consciousness transmission technology' is not perfect, not as perfect as I said, and there are still fatal flaws."

Takano sighed and said, "The human self-consciousness or 'soul' is an incomparably mysterious thing, and even if I have tried all my efforts in the past ten years, I will not be able to get a glimpse of it in its entirety.

"You know, no matter what kind of information is used to transmit it, in the process of transmission, it will inevitably be interfered with, and a certain amount of distortion and loss will occur.

"For ordinary information, 1% distortion and loss may not be a big deal.

"But for the 'soul', even one in 10,000 distortions and wear and tear has the potential to bring about earth-shaking changes.

"On the other hand, matter produces and determines consciousness, and human consciousness originates from the human brain, and even the most mature soul is transferred to the brain of a monster, which will be more or less affected by the beast's brain.

"Of course, we can use various biochemical modulation techniques to adjust the brain environment of biochemical beasts to a similar degree to the human brain as much as possible, but as long as there are subtle differences, it will eventually interfere with human consciousness.

"What's worse is that with current technology, we can't keep the human brain fresh for a long time after the human consciousness is out of the brain – yes, we can soak the human body in a nutrient solution and use a technique similar to hibernation to keep it alive for a long time, waiting for the soul to return.

"But the repeated transmission of consciousness, the constant erasure and overwriting of information, will definitely cause irreversible damage to the brain, and eventually, activate the brain's self-defense mechanism, so that all nerve ports are shut down......"

"Wait, I'm a little confused."

Meng Chao said, "Director Gao, what are the consequences of the current 'consciousness transmission technology'?" ”

"According to my calculations and experiments, the consequence is that once the consciousness of human beings burrows into the brain of the cyborg, it will be imperceptibly affected by the cyborg."

Gao Ye sighed, "Maybe 99% of the consciousness of the biochemical beast will be covered, but the remaining 1% of consciousness, including the killing instinct of the peerless beast, will erode the consciousness of human beings and interfere with their way of thinking and self-perception."

It's not hard to understand.

"When your consciousness burrows into the body of a monster, you see through the eyes of the monster, hear through the ears, roar through the throat, tear the prey with its minions, and perceive the world in the way of a monster, your way of thinking is of course different from the original."

Meng Chao thoughtfully: "It makes sense, but it's not that it can't be solved, it's like a worker who operates a large construction machinery, and it's not working 24 hours a day, according to your assumption, ordinary people spend three or five hours a day transmitting their consciousness to the monster's brain, to work and fight, and after getting off work, they will go back to their own shells to live and enjoy, so that there will be no problems with self-awareness, right?" ”

"As I said, there is a loss in any transmission, and the nerve ports in the human brain can be destroyed or closed after repeated transmissions."

Takano said gloomily, "To put it simply and crudely, with current technology, it is very likely that a human will transmit 100% of his soul to the brain of a biochemical beast, and he will never come back." ”

Meng Chao spent ten seconds pondering what "can't come back" meant.

"So, what about his original body and brain?" He asked dryly.

"Brain dead, or vegetative state, I don't know, it's all just calculations and deductions." Koyado Road.

Meng Chao thought for a moment: "Then, this human soul can only stay in the body of the monster all the time?" ”

"Yes."

Takano said, "I'm afraid he can only live in the form of a monster forever." ”

"Then, his consciousness will continue to be eroded by the monster's brain, resulting in self-perception bias and even ......"

Meng Chao swallowed his saliva and said, "Insanity? ”

"Even if there is no erosion of the monster's brain, the probability that a human soul will be trapped in the monster's shell forever is very high."

Takano said, "Now you should understand why I can't find investors, right?" Because of this research, it is too far away from the bottom line of human morality and ethics.

"Yes, since the Dragon City crossed, the virus was raging, zombies were rampant, and many people had awakened to extraordinary powers, our ethics and morality have changed drastically compared to the Earth era.

But no matter how the bottom line of ethics and morality changes, permanently transmitting a human soul to the brain of a monster will not be understood and recognized by the world after all.

"Even if I could find volunteers, no investor would support me in such a crazy experiment.

"Experiments are always frustrated, and there is a great chance that the soul of the volunteer will be sealed in the monster's brain, and even under the stimulation of the monster's nerves, it will become insane, distorted, and lose its sense of self.

"Once this kind of thing is exposed, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the whole city, and the storm of public opinion will tear me and the investors apart, and the people will think that we are demons who play with our souls, and we are crazy people who want to turn humans into monsters.

"Who would take such a risk and invest in my research, you say?

"What's more, the biggest purpose of my research and development of the 'consciousness transmission technology' is to hope that ordinary people and transcendent beings can achieve a balance.

"If I accept an investment from a big big mega-corporation, and the technology falls into their hands before it matures, and they either put it on the shelf, or they come up with a way to crack it, and they give them wings, what is the balance?

"Therefore, I am not willing to accept anyone's investment, let alone disclose any information about this technology, I must control all the power and resources of the 'Spirit Creation', carry out secret research, and wait until the technology is mature enough to solve the shortcomings I just mentioned, and then make it public.

"When the time comes, even if I am personally ruined, at least this technology may spread and allow ordinary people to have weapons against the transcendent.

"The above is all the truth hidden behind the 'Sega Tiancheng pet beast murder incident', Meng Chao, I don't have the slightest reservation, and I don't think you will let me go, just ask my concept to plant a seed in your heart, after this matter is over, can you think about how 1% of the transcendent and 99% of the ordinary people should get along in the near future, and push human civilization to a new peak together, instead of simply and rudely treating me as a madman, madman, demon, is it okay?"

Gao Ye looked at Meng Chao expectantly.

"Yes, you don't believe it, I'm actually quite open-minded, I can accept all kinds of bizarre theories, and I don't even rule out turning them into reality - anyway, no matter how bad the future is, that's what it is."

Meng Chao said, "Director Gao, I really want to continue to discuss with you, but unfortunately between us, I'm afraid there is not much time, why don't you give me the contact information, address, official website or chat group of your organization, I will go online and talk to the friends of our organization?"

"By the way, let's organize the recruitment of new people, a good young man like me who is talented, outstanding, open-minded and worried about the country and the people, the organization should not dislike it, right?"

Gao Ye laughed: "Meng Chao, you are very funny, if you change the time and occasion, maybe we can really become friends." ”

"It's okay, then I'll advise you from the position of a friend, there's no need to resist, just surrender, and then put everything you just said in court."

Meng Chao said, "This case is so tortuous and bizarre, I believe that not only the judges, but also the major news media and netizens who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic are very interested, and you must not worry that you can't find a soulmate."

"As for your 'consciousness transmission technology', you can also take it to the biochemical modulation circle of Agricultural University to discuss it - since you want to plant a 'seed', you must always be upright and accept the sun in order to thrive and become a towering tree, right?"

"Yes, I should have turned myself in, in the face of Meng Chao, you are such a lovely young man, I really shouldn't make things too ...... Decent. ”

Gao Ye sighed, "Look at my appearance, you should know that I am neither afraid of death, nor afraid of the eyes of the world, whether it is the verdict of the court, the dark prison, the bullet of justice or the end of disrepute, I don't care, if it is just to spread my ideas, turn myself in, go to the court to be impassioned, may be the best choice."

"But, unfortunately, even if I am despised by you, I can't help it, I have one more important thing to do than turn myself in."

In Meng Chao's mind, the alarm bell rang out: "What's the matter?" ”

"Experiment."

Takano smiled, "The first, and perhaps last, full-power overload experiment of consciousness transmission technology. ”
