Chapter 411 [P4 Laboratory]
The document was very thick, and Luo Sheng continued to browse the follow-up content.
Shengfeng Capital in the first half of this year's key investment area is the semiconductor industry, 892 billion of which 70% are invested in the semiconductor industry, the investment amount exceeds more than 60 billion, the scope of investment covers the world, overseas investment is mainly some private scientific research institutions, Shengfeng Capital wants to invest in European and American national scientific research laboratories, but people do not accept.
However, if you insist on the strategy of casting a wide net, there are also fish that have slipped through the net, and there are also great gods, so maybe you can catch a few big fish from them.
In addition to the semiconductor industry, another investment area is life sciences and medical care, with an investment amount of 13.5 billion yuan in the first half of this year.
Luo Sheng closed the report and looked at Qin Weimu: "The investment in the field of life sciences, why haven't you seen the investment in biosafety experiments?" This is a very important area, and our country has not yet had a single P4 laboratory in operation, and this situation must be ended. ”
The H1N1 U.S. swine flu outbreak in North America last year in 2009 raged for nearly a year, killing more than 280,000 people and causing considerable panic for a while.
Nowadays, the task of human beings to fight the ravages of the virus is becoming more and more severe, and the study of how to prevent and combat it has become a common concern, and providing solutions to the problems that the public is worried about can be richly rewarded.
Luo Sheng is not strictly a biologist, does not have much in-depth knowledge in the field of life sciences and virology, and in his last life, he was an authority on artificial intelligence and new materials, and a leader in this field.
However, geniuses are often well-versed, and Luo Sheng has also made achievements in other fields, but the representative is in the field of AI and new materials.
Just like Thomas Young, a British physicist in history and one of the founders of the wave theory of light, he is not only a leader in the field of physics, but also a doctor, involved in fields such as mechanics, mathematics, optics, acoustics, linguistics, zoology, archaeology, etc., and is a rare all-round genius in the world.
Luo Sheng was praised as the Oriental "Thomas Young" by the academic community in his last life, and he was also involved in other fields, and he was also a rare all-round genius in the world.
Without the ability to know everything, you are not qualified to say that you are a genius among geniuses.
Obviously, Luo Sheng attaches great importance to investment in the field of life sciences, not only to solve the diseases that the public is worried about, but he also hopes to find some means to delay aging and prolong life, which is a "move against the sky", but Luo Sheng has no hesitation.
Qin Weimu sighed leisurely: "It's difficult, mainly because it's difficult to get the approval of the state, and the completion of the P4 laboratory is not trivial." ”
The P4 laboratory is also the laboratory of biosafety level 4, which is the top laboratory of biosafety, and P4 is the highest level, and there is no more.
For example, the Ebola virus, which was discovered in the last century, has a biosafety level of 4, AIDS is 3, and SARS is also 3, and the higher the level, the stricter the protection.
According to the contagiousness and harmfulness of infectious diseases, there are four levels, the first level has nothing to do with human adult health and disease, and is the lowest level; Diseases caused by the second level in humans are rarely serious and have treatment and prevention; The third level can cause serious or fatal disease in humans, and there may be preventive and curative treatments.
And the fourth level, in humans can cause serious or fatal diseases, and cannot be prevented and treated.
For example, the Ebola virus, human beings have been helpless against it, once unfortunately infected is basically hopeless, the real seven orifices bleed, coughing can cough out internal organs, the body ulcers, the process of death is even more painful.
It is no exaggeration to say that the T virus in the movie "Resident Evil" is nothing more than the Ebola virus in reality, the people infected with the T virus are already unconscious living dead, and the people infected with the most serious Ebola virus are still conscious, and they are worse than dead; The T virus can only be infected by a bite, while the most severe Ebola virus can be infected by a single touch.
The so-called P4 lab is a place that specializes in this, dealing with such a smelling and distorting existence as the Ebola virus.
Biosafety is not trivial, and the World Health Organization has always attached great importance to the safety of biological laboratories, and published the Laboratory Biosafety Handbook as early as 1983
The P4 Lab is undoubtedly a "double-edged sword", its application can not only benefit mankind, but if it is not done well, it can also become a disaster for mankind. The P4 lab is used to store and study some of the world's deadliest viruses, which for many people, especially the public, will always feel that there is always an unsafe hidden danger of planting a large super virus bomb.
Some people have even suggested that it is safest not to build biosafety laboratories.
This argument is not only in China, but also in the United States, where there are 15 P4 labs, and there are protests against the construction of P4 labs.
If you don't build a P4 laboratory, when a deadly virus really breaks out one day, it will only be up to fate for human beings to die or live.
And human beings, as the only intelligent biological race on the earth, obviously cannot leave their fate to the heavens to decide, even if they perish, it is better to destroy themselves than to be destroyed by the heavens.
Humans are such creatures that they would rather die at their own hands.
So far, although some corresponding regulations and regulations have been formulated in China in terms of biosafety, the highest is only regulated by P3 laboratories, and not by P4 laboratories.
Luo Sheng pondered for a moment and said to the air: "Xiao Na, do a calculation, what is the theoretical budget for building a P4 laboratory in a resource-friendly area and a P4 laboratory in a no-man's land?" ”
"Roger!"
Xiao Na responded and fell silent, Qin Weimu glanced around as if looking for Xiao Na, while Luo Sheng waited patiently.
To save costs, it is generally best in urban areas with convenient transportation, but it is not in first-tier cities, and the land price alone cannot stand it, even if the state grants land for free, consumption is not cheap.
At present, there are more than 50 P4 laboratories in the world, including those under construction, and these dozens of top biosafety laboratories are located on five continents in the world.
It stands to reason that China currently has the world's largest population, and its GDP and R&D rank second in the world.
But in fact, the two P4 laboratories that have been built in China are in the bend, and the only P4 laboratory in the mainland is still under construction in Jiangcheng.
"Master, the results of the theoretical calculations are out." Cortana's voice rang out again, and it didn't take long to wait.
Luo Sheng immediately asked, "How much?" ”
Cortana: "The theoretical budget for building a P4 lab in an urban area is about 350 million yuan, and the theoretical budget for building a P4 lab in a no-man's land is at least 1.8 billion yuan. ”
Qin Weimu couldn't help but say: "Just building a laboratory will cost hundreds of millions, or even more than a billion, and the operating cost will not be lower than the construction cost, which is too expensive." ”
Shengfeng Capital is indeed super rich, but it is not a single focus on one field, it is really a huge amount of money when subdivided, which is the norm of engaging in high-tech, and it really can't play without enough money to krypton gold.
Luo Sheng tilted his head, looked at Qin Weimu and grinned: "Aren't you a top trader, you can earn it back after a turn in the international foreign exchange market, two years later, Greece went bankrupt, as well as the outbreak of the European debt crisis, Brexit These black swan events can make our family fund make a lot of money, and you can create the most powerful short fund in history." ”
Hearing this, Qin Weimu shook him angrily, but after a while, she looked at Luo Sheng curiously: "Are you so sure that there will be a sovereign debt crisis in Europe?" ”
Luo Sheng opened his eyes and said nonsense: "I didn't believe it before, but I recently analyzed the situation in Europe, no matter how I look at it, it's not a good rhythm, I am now more and more convinced of your original prediction, you must not let go of these opportunities, otherwise God will not forgive us, there will be more places to spend money in the future." ”
Qin Weimu smiled, looked at the other party and said, "You have today's achievements, how much should I contribute?" ”
Luo Sheng pursed his lips and said as if he was serious: "emmm...... 15%, too much should be about 5%, no more. ”
Qin Weimu grimaced: "Believe it or not, one day you check the accounts, there is a horizontal bar in front of the asset list data above, and this palace will make you the world's first negative, the negative of debt." ”
Luo Sheng replied with a smile: "It's actually nothing to bring a horizontal bar, I just have a vertical bar here, and the combination is the '+' sign, which is very perfect!" ”
Qin Weimu: "......"
