Chapter 224: Sharks and Jurassic Park

Sure enough, it's a laboratory for studying sharks.

In the building, there is even a hidden mystery.

Beneath the base of the building, a deep tide with the size of a swimming pool has been deliberately excavated, ostensibly a research institute but in fact a shark aquarium.

Two huge sharks are swimming around in this aquarium.

"The second floor is the lounge, which also contains a place for leisure and eating, and the laboratory is mainly concentrated on the third floor and the table, after all, it is only for the study of polymer compounds, and many large research instruments are not used, so it is not arranged.

The deep tank underneath is deliberately made in the shape of a ring, so that the sharks have to swim constantly in order to keep them alive. ”

Catherine took Gao Ning to the second floor, a viewing window, the two stretched out their heads to look down, in the clear water, two sharks were slowly swimming clockwise, not too fast.

"Only these two?"

"Of course not!" Before Catherine could speak, Anna said a little proudly: "Our main shark training base is concentrated in the waters off Hawaii, where fish resources are relatively abundant, which can save a lot of feed!" ”

Gao Ning turned around and said, "How can you be so clear? Have you ever been? ”

"Of course, the Hawaii shark training base is very good, Catherine specially built a sea base, around the shark fishing grounds, if this experiment goes well, these shark resources in the hands are equivalent to money!"

When it came to the money, Anna's eyes shone brightly.

Catherine coughed lightly and glanced at Anna.

"Don't worry, Gao Ning is my very good friend, and he is not an environmental activist, there is no need to hide and choke, what is the best!"

Anna then explained to Gao Ning: "After all, there is a certain danger in raising sharks, so there are many environmentalists who are protesting, so far it is not bad, after all, the scale of the laboratory is very large, as long as the breeding area is placed in the open sea, the geographical location is a little remote, away from the golden sand and swimsuit beauties, you will have no problem!" ”

Gao Ning shrugged: "I don't care about this!" I have to, though, Catherine you are truly amazing! ”

Catherine smiled vaguely, her eyes flashing with expectation.

"If you're interested in further investigation, I can arrange for a helicopter right away, and we'll be in the shark breeding area in just a few hours.

In fact, for the freshness of the samples, we spend more than 80% of our time in the Hawaii branch laboratory, which is also fully equipped. There's nothing going on left and right, why don't we take a look together? ”

Catherine proposed, Anna nodded quickly, and didn't even care whether Gao Ning agreed, and pushed Gao Ning all the way to the stage.

The station was deliberately treated, and the corners around it were deliberately placed with some strange devices, including cables and satellite receivers, which were embedded in the side walls.

In the very center, a circle is drawn, and a big h is written.

Gao Ning was a little surprised, and he specially prepared a tarmac, but ......

He looked left and right, and had to admit that there really wasn't a suitable place to serve as a tarmac near this beach.

"The experiment is needed, there is no way, for the sake of convenience, I can only deal with it temporarily!"

Catherine explained a little, turned around and made a phone call, and a helicopter appeared a few minutes later.

Catherine skillfully picked up a red flag and waved it on the roof, and the helicopter quickly landed.

It's a helicopter that can only seat four people, including the pilot, but if you look at the huge fuel tank at the back, you can see that the helicopter has a pretty good endurance.

If it's such a long distance, why not take a passenger plane to Hawaii and then take a helicopter to the experimental area?

But in line with the principle of the guest and the host, seeing that the two of them looked like they were taken for granted, Gao Ning didn't have much to do.

Sure enough, after the helicopter took off, it did not drive east, but went all the way to the west.

You know, this is the exact opposite direction, the Hawaiian Islands are in the Pacific Ocean, and the East Coast, near New York, belongs to the Atlantic Ocean.

The corners of Gao Ning's mouth curled, and he kept staring at the red alert map in his mind.

The helicopter flew almost in a straight line at sea level, and the whole process lasted for an hour.

After flying more than 300 kilometers or so, he slowly landed on a floating island.

This research institute is even more exaggerated than the one on the shore, there are only 2~3 floors of tower-like buildings on the water, like a lighthouse, and like a lookout, and the rest of the part is hidden underwater, and the area is quite small.

"Near the Hawaiian Islands, huh?"

This was Gao Ning's first sentence to Anna after getting off the plane.

Anna's gaze was relatively calm: "The exact location is unknown, and this laboratory is Catherine's entire effort."

Besides, research has reached this point, secrecy is the most important thing, don't be you, even I don't know the specific location of the laboratory. ”

"No need to explain, I understand, if I didn't believe you, I would have pointed this out before I found one, even if I can't tell the direction on the sea, I have the least judgment, New York is a few thousand kilometers away from Hawaii, take a helicopter? No kidding, okay! ”

Gao Ning rolled his eyes, ignored him, and followed a slightly apologetic Catherine into the healing tower.

Although the research funds are tight, the laboratory here is still functioning normally, and even the security personnel are much denser, from the moment they enter the lighthouse, step by step inspection, step by step inspection, all the strict regulations, it really looks like that.

Everyone took the circular elevator in the center and went all the way to a depth of 100 meters under water.

This is where the real research is located.

"Alzheimer's disease is still terminal. Disease doesn't distinguish between high and low, it will reach everyone, including politicians and billionaires in various countries, and this will get worse as the global aging population intensifies.

If we can successfully complete the clinical trials, really synthesize this compound artificially, and ensure that it is effective, then we are opening up a gold mine, Mr. Gao Ning, I will not hide from you, we have a lot of investment before, but recently they have been attracted by another project, and in order to achieve a short-term rate of return, they chose to divest.

We're about to succeed, which is foolishness, and now we only need a little bit of money, only about $20 million to complete the final step...... Don't know if you're interested? ”

Catherine has been instilling this concept in Gao Ning every now and then on the helicopter, and she still didn't give up until she got off the plane, and she introduced it all the way, and finally asked the most critical sentence.

Gao Ning rubbed his eyebrows.

"Catherine or Dr. Walker, you should know why I'm here.

Anna is my best friend, and she's in need of financial assistance lately, and I happen to have that money.

I don't like to worry too much about too much money, if it's just $20 million, I don't think this project is very suitable for me, I will introduce you to a more capable fund on Wall Street, for my sake, $20 million should be disbursed to you soon, but after all, they are financial organizations, and investment is to make a profit.

So in terms of shares and related rights, there will be a special lawyer to talk to you, and the specific extent to which you can talk depends on Dr. Walker, what cards you have in your hand! ”

Gao Ning was about to leave after speaking.

This should be regarded as a huge aquarium, the upper and lower body can reach more than 100 meters, and there are more than 100 big sharks around, all kinds of strange shapes.

Now that the problem of funds can be solved, Gao Ning is ready to go back and take a closer look.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Gao Ning!"

Catherine was, after all, a full-fledged laboratory director-level figure.

Although they are still intellectuals, they have mastered all kinds of skills no worse than those of general managers of typical companies.

Think of a laboratory developing a new project, first of all, you have to make sure that you have enough money to keep the project moving forward under the exchange of various interests.

In addition to the need to discern people and find scientists with real knowledge and technology, they also need to have a certain amount of talent management experience, and the ability required to manage a huge laboratory is not a little bit.

Catherine, after so many years of research, tried her best to toss such a big scene, of course, she is a person who can seize the opportunity.

Besides, $20 million is really not a lot for a lab, especially a lab like Catherine.

However, the current investment environment is not good, and many investors have withdrawn their funds and run away, shouting too much, for fear of scaring away the last straw.

didn't expect the $20 million to be shouted, but Gao Ning was a little disappointed, disgusted that the numbers were too much, and it was not worth the shot.

Isn't that simple? The laboratory is a professional gold-swallowing monster, and it can be consumed with as much money as it can!

"In fact, the quotation just now can only be barely counted as the first stage, if the drug research and development is successful, then the follow-up to promote the drug inspection bureau, the drug market, and the opening of terminal sales channels, all links need a lot of money.

If all the links go well, $100 million should be completely sufficient, even if there will be at least some accidents in the follow-up links, it will not affect the overall drug development and promotion.

The drugs used to treat Alzheimer's disease are unique, and you should know the promise of them! ”

Seeing that Gao Ning remained silent, Catherine gritted her teeth and said: "At present, the ownership of the laboratory is still in my name, and I can share 25% of the shares for 100 million US dollars......"

Without waiting for Catherine to finish, Gao Ning waved his hand: "Okay, that's it!" ”

Ignoring Catherine, he strode onto the elevator.

"I seem to have seen a shark with three heads just now, so I'll look for it first! By the way, the breeding area should be free to visit, right? ”

Catherine nodded stunned, Gao Ning smiled with satisfaction, and the elevator door closed.

Anna had been sitting quietly next to her since then, with a laptop in front of her, which was playing the process of experimenting on rats about newly discovered compounds.

Catherine was stunned for a long time before she looked back at Anna and asked, "Did you agree so easily?" ”

Anna's expression was relaxed: "Who knows him, maybe he has his own considerations!" You don't have to worry too much about him, this son is going to be shitty luck, and suddenly inherited a lot of property, although I can't tell you how much, but there is a long list of company names alone, and a mere $100 million for him should not hurt his muscles and bones! ”

Catherine smiled bitterly: "Looking at his appearance, he didn't put $100 million in his eyes at all, and if he wasn't so wealthy, he wouldn't have looked down on the $20 million investment at all." ”

At this point, Catherine hesitated: "Actually, the most valuable thing in my laboratory is a few modified shark samples, and the other memorials plus equipment and personnel are not worth 400 million US dollars, and my bottom line is 35%, but Gao Ning ......"

"Then even if you take advantage of it!"

Anna grinned, got up and pressed the elevator: "I'm also very interested in your strange shark here, leave me alone, you can contact Gao Ning's lawyer directly when you go back, and confirm the investment amount as soon as possible."

By the way, I remember you don't have a lot of investments? How could it suddenly come together to divest together? ”

Catherine sighed, "You see that my laboratory has moved to the Atlantic Ocean, so you should know that the environment in the Hawaiian Sea is not very good."

There is a giant biological group that has invested in a cloning laboratory in recent years, listened to the DNA extracted from this living fossil egg, and used it as a basis for reverse reduction, deciphering and cloning the entire Jurassic era of organisms.

Half a year ago, the Bio Group spent a huge amount of money to buy a reef beach and spent a lot of money to transform it into a dinosaur island with a retro landform.

After half a year of construction, it has become a dinosaur world covering an area of more than 20 square kilometers. ”

"What? Dinosaur world? Jurassic Park? ”

Gao Ning's voice suddenly came from behind the two.

Catherine turned her head, looked at Gao Ning's somewhat surprised face in the elevator, and nodded: "It turns out that you also know, it seems to be called this name."

Jurassic Park will be opening for the first time in about two weeks, and it is conceivable that many people will flock to the Jurassic Park to catch a glimpse of the age of dinosaurs, thanks to the promotion of the giant companies that have spared no effort.

My project has just reached the clinical trial stage, and Jurassic Park is ready to open for business, and the gap between the two sides is too big, so ......"

Catherine spread her palms and smiled a little self-deprecatingly. "By the way, why are you back again?"

"Oh, that shark with three big heads doesn't know where it went, come back and ask where it is."

Before Catherine could speak, Anna preemptively said, "I know, I know, I'll take you!"
