Chapter 337: A Pseudo-Science Fiction Story (Part I)

Blue Planet 2333 years, the future world, the bustling streets of Nanjiang.

"Hello, sir." The salesman Bao Xiaoneng stopped a man about fifty years old on the street.

"What's wrong?" The middle-aged man hesitated, stopped, and squinted at Bao Xiaoneng with a defensive expression.

"Sir, you must have some interest in eternal life."

Prior to this, Bao Xiaoneng spent less than thirty seconds to lock the middle-aged man in the crowd, and judged that this was a person who liked to watch fantasy stories since he was a child.

This kind of person, no matter how old he is, will always maintain a full curiosity about the unknown and new things, so theoretically he can be classified into the second category of the three types of potential customers, and in Bao Xiaoneng's view, it can be used as a target customer to strive for it.

Although this person doesn't seem to be too rich, that is, barely making ends meet, it doesn't matter, don't discriminate against anyone who is tight on money, and if you don't try, you will never know how much money the other person can take out of his pocket.

Bao Xiaoneng is the best salesman in this company since its establishment.

"What do you want to say?" When the middle-aged man named Yin Yuanyi heard the word immortality, a hint of brightness flashed in his eyes, and the expression on his face moved slightly, although in his tone, it was still indifferent and impatient like a passerby.

"Ah, it's just a casual conversation, you shouldn't be in a hurry, and it's the weekend." With an easy-going smile on his face, Bao Xiaoneng blocked the other party's excuse to get out first.

"What is there to talk about?"

"It's a very clichΓ©d topic. yes, if there really was a way in the world for you to live forever, what do you think, what would it be? Or what would you most like to find through eternal life? ”

"Of course it's Xiuzhen." Yin Yuanyi didn't think about it, and blurted out.

"Xiuzhen, huh...... Is there anything else besides this? Bao Xiaoneng continued to patiently guide this Yin Yuanyi.

"Except for Xiuzhen?"

"Yes, think about it, what other possibilities are there that allow you to achieve eternal life without any worries?"

"It's gone." Yin Yuanyi raised his arms, hugged them in front of his chest, and looked at the salesman Bao Xiaoneng.

Bao Xiaoneng smiled and said: "In fact, all-round flawless immortality can be realized, we can use the latest scientific and technological means to replace you with a tailor-made, all of which are perfectly composed of high-tech materials, so as to achieve immortality......

"After talking for a long time, it turned out to be robotic, what should I be, what kind of new technology company are you, the one whose name is long, and you can't remember the name, and play this game with me around such a big bend?" Yin Yuanyi heard half of it, instantly lowered his face, unceremoniously interrupted the second half of Bao Xiaoneng's words, and turned around to leave.

Bao Xiaoneng stepped forward and crossed in front of Yin Yuanyi, with a smile on his face, and said, "Sir, there may be a little information asymmetry in the middle, can you listen to me a few more words?" Think about it, once you replace the fragile body with the incorruptible body, it will be almost like eternal life, right? ”

"No, no, no, if I become a robot, I won't be the same person I am, no, not at all." Yin Yuanyi frowned, shook his head vigorously and waved his hands, almost expressing his negation all over his body.

"Sir, we only modify our bodies, and we never use our brains, because this is expressly forbidden by law. Therefore, you will always be the same person, and you will never have a personality change or anything like that, and you can rest assured that you will never change your personality. Look, why don't I give you a brief introduction? Bao Xiaoneng still did not let go, and was approaching to launch a sales offensive step by step.

"I don't need to introduce it, I'm really not interested, robots have to replenish energy regularly, and they can't move without energy, I think it's too troublesome, so you don't have to bother to sell it to me." Yin Yuanyi was trying to find an excuse to refuse, and at the same time his eyes were glancing to the side, ready to find a vacancy to get out at any time.

"Sir, what do you mean...... Don't we all have to eat every day, thousands of years, and I haven't seen anyone feel troublesome to eat, you say right, haha, and what, the problem of energy has been solved, and now we use nuclear batteries, which are small in size, super long and durable, and very safe, you can use them with confidence. ”

"No, no, nuclear energy is scared when it sounds." Yin Yuanyi waved his hand, took a step to the left, and then walked forward quickly, looking like he was about to get out.

Bao Xiaoneng chased after him, and followed Yin Yuanyi quickly, saying while paralleling: "Sir, not only eternal life, you can also have speed and strength beyond ordinary people, you will become invincible, you can even go to heaven and earth, such a powerful body, don't you yearn for it?" Is there really not the slightest yearning? ”

Yin Yuanyi paused at his feet, obviously tempted by such words, but he still shook his head, continued to walk forward, and said firmly: "No, no, I'm only interested in Xiuzhen." ”

Bao Xiaoneng smiled, pursed his lips, and stopped and stood in place. It's thankless, and it's commonplace. He stared at the middle-aged man's back, then his eyes slanted slightly, and a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in his mind.

So he chased after him in a few big strides, grabbed Yin Yuanyi's sleeve from behind, and said, "Sir, you wait a little longer." ”

"What's the matter?" Yin Yuanyi turned around, and it seemed that he had reached the critical point of anger.

Bao Xiaoneng smiled and said, "Hehe, sir, for the sake of you being so interested in Xiuzhen, I'll tell you the truth." In fact, our company has really developed a set of methods for repairing the truth. ”

Yin Yuanyi was stunned for a moment and opened his mouth, "Ugh." ”

"Let me tell you more about it?" Bao Xiaoneng's eyes were full of light.

Why didn't you say that before? I'm all gone, and you just caught up and said again? Yin Yuanyi had a calm face.

"Hehe, this one, sir, you see we've been talking for a long time, and it's a good conversation, so I won't hide it from you, I'll tell you the truth. Because our company's Dafa of cultivating truth and immortality was secretly developed by a research group, it has not yet been disclosed to the outside world for several reasons......

"Why not?"

"The main reason is that I am afraid that I will not be recognized by mainstream science, that I am afraid that I will be misunderstood as pseudoscience, or even regarded as an outlier, so I have not dared to publish this result for several months. The company's current rule is that it is easy not to disclose this business to anyone, and we will only recommend it privately unless we meet a customer who is genuinely interested. I didn't tell you about it at the beginning, and that's why I didn't tell you about it. When Bao Xiaoneng said these words, he tried to keep his voice as low as possible.

"Oh." Yin Yuanyi seems to accept Bao Xiaoneng's explanation.

"Think about it?" Bao Xiaoneng asked Yin Yuanyi in a tentative tone.

Yin Yuanyi was silent for more than ten seconds, and finally spoke: "I don't have so much money, and I can't afford to consume your company's services." ”

Bao Xiaoneng smiled kindly and said, "Money is not the main problem, thoughts are the most important." How much you love the world, how much you care about yourself, how much you desire eternal life, etc., are all more important than money. ”

"What you said is false." Yin Yuanyi was not impressed.

"Okay, let's be honest. Sir, you have to think like this, when the cultivation is really completed, what kind of state will you be? Not only can you return to your youth, but you can far surpass ordinary people in all aspects, and you will become extremely powerful, and at that time, it is not a random matter for you to make money again? So don't look at whether you have money or not, it's worth spending all your savings on it. Of course, I'm just saying that, and of course I'm not going to let you spend all your savings. ”

"It's such a good thing, why don't you try it yourself?" Yin Yuanyi asked vigilantly.

"Me, I've long embraced robotization." Bao Xiaoneng pulled open his sleeves, revealing his modified arms for Yin Yuanyi to see. "To be honest, not long ago, when I knew that there was a way to cultivate the truth, I sincerely regretted that I couldn't. You're right, it's much better to be a robot than to be robotized. ”

"Of course."

"But look at my current appearance, in fact, I am not a few years younger than you, this face is also young, it is much easier to find a job all of a sudden, my current income is much higher than before the robotization, and you will never think of the specific number." When it came to income, Bao Xiaoneng lowered his voice again.

"Oh." The nerves on Yin Yuanyi's face twitched slightly.

"People have to have the courage to dare to change themselves and try a different life to get infinite possibilities, right?"

"Honestly, I ...... I really don't have much savings. Yin Yuanyi finally told the truth.

"But you really want to change yourself through cultivation, so as to change your life, right?" Bao Xiao can strike while the iron is hot.

Yin Yuanyi lowered his head slightly and did not speak.

"Money is really not a problem, by the way, I haven't had time to tell you that all of our company's services can be postpaid, that is, you only need to pay a small deposit, pending repair...... After refining it, you can pay the full amount.

"In addition, on the basis of postpayment, you can also apply for installment payment, and when the transformation is completed, ah, no, after the completion of the repair, then slowly make money and installments, there will be no pressure at all."

"So, you only need to pay a deposit, you can realize your dream of cultivating the truth, do you still need to hesitate for such a good thing?"

"Oh." When Yin Yuanyi heard this, he finally looked a little moved, and there was no reason to refute it.

"Sir, it's too wise for you to make this decision now, because as long as the time is ripe, the company will definitely launch this achievement as a new business, and the price at that time is estimated to be at least twice as high as the full-body robotization, so you can really save a lot of money by signing the agreement early while the project is still in its infancy."

Yin Yuanyi smiled uncomfortably and asked, "Then how much does it cost now?" ”

"Sir, in this way, we go to the company's reception hall, you sit down comfortably, listen to me introduce you to the specific content, the details can be communicated and discussed, the reception hall also provides free refreshments, you can slowly review our company's agreement, the agreement is very standardized and rigorous, and will definitely protect your legitimate rights and interests from all aspects."

Yin Yuanyi didn't speak, and nodded.

"By the way, we've been chatting for so long, and I haven't asked Mr. your surname." Bao Xiaoneng asked while politely bringing Yin Yuanyi into the reception hall of the company's sales department.

"My name is Yin Yuanyi."

"Yin Yuanyi, good name! Good name! Bao Xiaoneng was full of praise: "This is the name of being able to become an immortal!" This name is simply too suitable for your temperament, it is completely immortal and extraordinary! ”

……

……

"Bao Xiaoneng! You really can't get there! ……”

As soon as Bao Xiaoneng pushed open the door of Manager Qian's office, he sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and sure enough, as soon as Manager Qian opened his mouth, he was greeted with such a sentence.

There seems to be half a sentence in the back, and it is obvious that Manager Qian is stuck in his throat and does not say it smoothly.

As for what it was for, he had already guessed in his heart before he pushed the door open, it must be that the technicians in the technical solution department couldn't turn their brains around.

In fact, it was exactly what he expected.

His immediate superior, Manager Qian of the Marketing Department, sat on an integrated office chair, and an electronic agreement was opened in the air in front of him at 500% zoom, which was the "Xiuzhen" agreement that Bao Xiaoneng had just signed two hours ago.

On the sofa on the right hand side of the office, there are Manager Xin of the Technical Solution Department and technician Xiao Qi. At a glance, it was clear that they had come to Manager Qian to question the agreement.

However, it seems that Manager Qian is not very angry, and he has no intention of blaming him.

So Bao Xiaoneng smiled calmly at the three people, rubbed his palms, and stood in the middle of the office, waiting for them to open their mouths so that they could answer.

Since the agreement dares to be signed like this, there must be a spectrum in my heart.

When Manager Xin of the technical solution department saw Bao Xiaoneng, he complained in a questioning tone: "How can we formulate a technical plan for this agreement you signed?" It's too embarrassing, and besides, have you considered the interests of the company when you brag to customers indiscriminately? ”

"That's it, I won't fight so hard for a little performance." Technician Xiao Qi sat next to their Manager Xin, and then chimed in.

Bao Xiaoneng smiled and said: "Manager Xin, hasn't the second laboratory of the R&D center recently come up with a new set of 'osmotic human cell micro-transformation technology', I was thinking, that can be packaged and used."

"As for the agreement, there is absolutely no problem with the content, and there will be no legal disputes.

"You see, the agreement reads: 'Ancient method of cultivating the true experiential human body function enhancement and whole body optimization transformation', that is to say, the focus is on the 'cultivation experience', and the experience is the key, so it is not the real cultivation, but the transformation of the body is completed in the form of the experience of cultivation."

Bao Xiaoneng explained carefully.

"He agrees to sign that?" Manager Xin had an incredible expression on his face, and felt that Bao Xiaoneng was either a liar or a fool.

Bao Xiaoneng: "Agreed, I explained to him, I have to write it like this, because we are new technology, and there is no corresponding professional term to use directly;

"And this form of cultivation is not scientifically recognized, so it must be written like this in order to obtain the protection of laws and related policies, and after listening to it, he understood it and agreed to sign it in this way." Bao Xiaoneng said very seriously.

Manager Xin: "You're really bold. ”

Bao Xiaoneng smiled and teased: "Boss, how do you think the performance of our front-line salespeople is done?"

"Without our encouragement outside in the wind and rain, even coaxing and pulling, and painstakingly agitation, where would you come from to work?"

"Don't be hippie smiling all day." Manager Xin frowned slightly, obviously slightly disgusted by Bao Xiaoneng's series of behaviors: "To be serious, the new research results you mentioned were just submitted to the above half a month ago, and the comprehensive review process has not yet been completed.

"Also, even if it can be converted into a new business, what connection can this technology have with something that doesn't matter like Xiuzhen?"

Bao Xiaoneng had a smile on his face: "You listen to my explanation."

"That new achievement...... It is said that it is a cross-field combination of cell structure engineering, molecular genetics, biomimetic differential pressure retarding technology, transcriptional replication double lock preservation method and other technologies, claiming to be able to achieve molecular-level human cell modification......

"But to be honest, I don't understand any of this, according to my understanding, this technology is to control a huge number of nanorobots, using a variety of high-tech synthetic materials that I can't name, according to the preset value, the whole body cells one by one to strengthen the molecular level, while inhibiting and locking the natural metabolism of human cells, so that the cells become artificial metal strong cells with mechanical properties, and the durability can reach at least 500 years, so that the modified person can greatly extend the life, this, I am right?"

"It's basically like this, but ...... What does this have to do with cultivation? Technician Xiao Qi couldn't help but repeat Manager Xin's question.

Bao Xiaoneng said unhurriedly: "This technology is very different from our current main business.

"Unlike the previous robotization, this technology is not as simple as tailoring in advance, replacing and assembling step by step, and completing body transformation.

"This is construction directly on the human body, and it is a direct use of trillions of nanorobots in the human body.

"The bearing capacity of the body of ordinary people is limited, and if the starting area is too large and exceeds the limit bearing value of the human body, the vital signs of the transformed person will exceed the normal range, and there is a certain danger to life, so it is impossible to achieve it quickly within a few days.

"Actually, when you think about the customer experience, you can't be so simplistic.

"It must be based on the fact that the customer is basically not feeling well, or that there is no obvious discomfort.

"After rigorous calculations, the theoretical value given by the second laboratory is: the whole body is based on 120 batches of nanorobots at the same time as the total maximum upper limit, of which the bone limit is limited to 39 batches, the muscle limit is limited to 45 batches, and the heart is the lowest, which is 0.5 batches.

"In other words, assuming that the customer weighs 70 kilograms, it will take about two to three months to complete the transformation of all the cells in the body under the safest conditions."

Manager Xin frowned: "But what does this have to do with Xiuzhen?" ”
