Chapter 54: It's Too Confusing

Harvard's fall season is very lively, but all this seems to have nothing to do with Zhou Zhen.

He wasn't involved in welcoming new students, and the medical school, far from Harvard's main campus, had a much smaller opening season.

And because the medical school is surrounded by more than a dozen hospitals and research institutes, the back-to-school season here is also a lot more deserted.

However, there is one event that no one should miss: the opening prom and dormitory networking events.

Zhou Zhen's dormitory also has a friendship dormitory, which belongs to the School of Classical Literature, but in Zhou Zhen's memory, this friendship dormitory is not close because there are no beautiful women, except for necessary contact and common social activities.

After spending a week and doing the necessary social activities, Zhou Zhen entered the quiet learning stage again.

Charles doesn't lecture to undergraduates now, and only has seven or eight graduate students under his command to form a team.

These graduate students were also his long-term jobs for no money, helping him with various experiments, even his household chores.

In the past, these things were mainly done by Zhou Zhen, but because he is not Zhou Zhen's teacher now, he does not need to do it.

But the experiment was done voluntarily by Zhou Zhen, so when he encountered any research, Zhou Zhen was still happy to do it.

Zhou Zhen also noticed that today's experiments and research have changed from widely applied research to purposeful targeted research.

Many experiments in the laboratory are based on the analysis of DNA, RNA gene strands, and cultivation.

Zhou Zhen has now incorporated Jamie's knowledge and experience, and knows very well that this kind of research is the initial stage of studying the virus.

The biotechnology of this world is far higher than that of the earth, and if the cloning technology on the earth is compared to the fact that it is still in the kindergarten stage, the T virus and G virus of the Resident Evil world are already in high school.

In the movie world, there is not much explanation of the virus, if the T virus is compared to the first generation, then the G virus is the second generation.

But in the gaming world, viruses are categorized in a much more nuanced manner, with each virus having several generations and being different.

Now Zhou Zhen is in the movie world, in which the role of the T virus is to develop biological weapons and try to strengthen human genes.

In the beginning, Professor Charles wanted to develop a drug that could cause genetic recombination in order to treat polio, which runs in his family. This is not about regrouping the chromosomes like hybridization, but about changing the chromosomes themselves.

This technique is several levels higher than cloning, but the reason why he is in high school is that he can't control the development after this change.

What he wants is a mild RNA gene alteration that can live peacefully with the cells and genes within the host.

There is a big difference between DNA and RNA, the simple distinction is that DNA is double-stranded, while RNA is single-stranded.

One is that two people have the final say and are relatively stable, and the other is that one person has the final say and is willful.

However, the double-stranded DNA is relatively tough and stable, and the current technology in this world cannot be fully utilized.

Whether it's a T virus or a G virus, it's actually an RNA virus.

A virus is actually a cell, but this cell is relatively poor, and it only has virus genes at the beginning.

A complete virus needs to have a protein coat and virus genes to form a complete virus.

Therefore, at the beginning of the birth of the virus, it has an aggressive nature.

The body's white blood cells are an innate defense mechanism that can defend against viruses, and viruses without protein coats cannot resist white blood cells.

At this time, the virus needs to be camouflaged and invade the nucleus.

Mild viruses integrate RNA genetic material into the chromosomes of the host cell and live in symbiosis for a long time, during which the genotype of the host cell is changed due to the integration of the viral chromosome.

Professor Charles has endowed this genetic cell with a strong offensive ability and tenacious vitality.

However, when the viral gene invades the nucleus of the cell and becomes a complete viral cell, it exhibits devastating qualities.

RNA viruses have two replication methods: self-replication and reverse transcription, and in the process of viral RNA replication, the activity of enzymes in its error repair mechanism is very low, almost none, so its mutation is very fast.

Infection with the T virus is thwarted by the body's immune system, and white blood cells try to kill infected cells, usually in a "die all" manner, resulting in a large amount of necrotic tissue in the body.

In order to repair the loss of tissues and restore the function of the immune system, a large amount of food is needed to provide materials and energy sources, which makes the infected person have an exuberant appetite.

After it rapidly invades the human body, it can invade all the normal cells of the human body, mutate, and become cells like it.

This can lead to death, and after death, the virus will remain alive for a period of time, and it will have an instinctive attacking power.

Others, including Professor Charles, do not have a clear understanding of this kind of research.

But Zhou Zhen is well aware that he is now on the "right" path.

However, due to the limited development process of science and technology, they are unable to control the mutant virus, which leads to the disaster of this world.

He had no idea of hindering Professor Charles's research, at least, the professor's daughter, Angela, who had become a "normal" person through the virus.

As for the crisis caused by the virus mutation later, it was just an accident caused by Ambrera using this virus for experiments.

Since it is a world limited by the plot, Zhou Zhen doesn't want to change these at all.

He just needs to prove his ability to make Professor Charles remember him and recruit himself into Ambrera in the future.

Zhou Zhen is only a junior in college, and in terms of knowledge reserves, he is not as good as others.

But he is patient, meticulous, and meticulous in his experiments.

In the laboratory, his role is definitely not inferior to that of others.

In addition to doing experiments, Zhou Zhen's energy is focused on learning.

He has no socialization, no rest, no girlfriend, and even, no life of his own.

In the eyes of the other roommates, he went from being a cleanliness patient to a monster.

Of course, because of his deliberate maintenance, those roommates not only did not dislike him, but respected him more.

At Harvard, there is no shortage of students who study for sixteen hours.

In the laboratory, Zhou Zhen has also received more and more attention, and Professor Charles has even allowed him to operate tens of millions of dollars worth of machines himself.

Until this day, Zhou Zhen met another acquaintance: Matt Damon.

Zhou Zhen went to a library on the main campus that day to check the latest medical device catalog, and when he returned, he met him sweeping the floor in shabby clothes at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

When Zhou Zhen saw him, a sharp brake alarmed him. Looking at the young Matt Damon, don't think about it, Zhou Zhen is just the plot of which movie this is.

"Soul Catcher", a story about a genius mathematician released in '97.

The story takes place at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the release time is 97......

"Is there something wrong?"

Zhou Zhen paused for a moment. "No, I thought you were one of my classmates."

He smiled. "Now, it seems, it's clearly not."

Zhou Zhen nodded and restarted the car.

He doesn't want to interfere with the side plots of beautiful women, let alone men, so let this Will continue to be his quiet beautiful man.

Back at the medical school, Zhou Zhen stopped the car in the parking lot, but did not get out of the car.

A few months ago, he came across the plot of "I Know What You Did Last Summer", and now, he has come across the plot of "Soul Catcher", which makes him can't help but wonder if he will encounter the plot of other movies.

He quickly figured out the relationship, both movies take place in Boston, and the plot takes place in '96.

He began to recall the movies that took place in this time period, in this place.

But this is not Los Angeles, not New York, and there are not so many movies that still have an impression.

In the nineties, apart from these two, the only thing he remembers is the movie "The Executioner", which is also very characteristic and takes place in Boston.

It doesn't matter, what matters is that this kind of cinematic world contains the plot of another movie, how should it be faced?

Ignoring it is certainly one way, but Zhou Zhen doesn't think it's the best way.

In the mission world, Zhou Zhen had a hesitation caused by uncertainties for the first time.

After a long time, he opened the door and got out of the car, and walked to the laboratory with the latest medical device catalog.

At this time, a voice shouted behind him: "This classmate ......"

Zhou Zhen's heart tightened and he came back to his senses. In the past, anyone who approached him and paid attention to him, he could notice, but today, when a woman walked behind him, he didn't notice.

Zhou Zhen turned around, and a beautiful short-haired woman a few years older than him was holding a file bag in her hand and a small bag on one shoulder, looking at his face with some concern. "Are you alright......"

Zhou Zhen wanted to squeeze out a smile, but he couldn't control his expression. "You're Gillian?"

She asked in surprise, "Who is Gillian?" ”

Zhou Zhen came to his senses completely and said with a smile: "It's a classmate I know...... You are ......"

She smiled and said, "I'm Dinah Scully, and I'm looking for Professor Ashford's lab." They told me it was in this building. ”

Zhou Zhen took a closer look at her and was sure that she was the one he knew. Deng Shi understood that this was another plot integration, but it was not a movie, but a famous American drama "The X-Files".

This Dinah Scully is the heroine of The X-Files, and his actor Gillian Anderson is also well-known in the United States.

The role of Dinah is the first place in the United States as the most charming female student on the screen.

"I'm a student of Professor Ashford, come with me."

Dinah walked up, and Zhou Zhen turned around and walked side by side with her. "I'm just here, you're an FBI agent."

Dinah stopped in surprise and glanced at Zhou Zhen. "How do you see that?"

"You're smartly dressed, your eyes are sharp, and you're observant. If you're a local agent, you shouldn't be alone. ”

"Your analysis is accurate...... Pls name. ”
