Early the next morning, Liu Weiping walked out of the Howard Johnson Hotel in full dress, the Pinault Bio R&D Center and the Howard Johnson Hotel are separated by a road, Liu Weiping has just arrived in the lobby, and a local woman is waiting for him, "Is it David?" Liu? ”

Liu Weiping nodded, "I'm Dalvi, Director Stepan sent me to pick you up, please follow me." "www.biquge.infoDalwei took Liu Weiping out of the lobby, crossed the road, and entered the gate of the Pinault Bioresearch and Development Center.

The security robot at the door had already obtained Liu Weiping's information, and when Liu Weiping passed by, the robot said flatteringly, "Welcome David?" Director Liu! ”

Liu Weiping smiled and entered the gate, Stepan was already waiting for him in the hall, and when he saw Liu Weiping coming in, he quickly greeted him, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Liu Weiping. Stepan is tall, a full 1.9 meters, and the high bridge of his nose looks like a northerner, "Fortunately!" David! ”

Liu Weiping's Samsung glasses had translated Stepan's greeting into English, but Liu Weiping was so close to Stepan that he could still hear that Stepan himself was speaking Russian, Liu Weiping raised his head, "I have admired the name for a long time!" ”。

Stepan held Liu Weiping's hand and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, Liu Weiping saw his thoughts, "Hehe, I am still a serious patient of Pino Bio, and a car accident almost destroyed my entire body." Liu Weiping pointed to his head again, "Except for here, almost all of my body is Pino Bio's products!" ”

"No wonder, as soon as I shake your hand, I know it's our product." Stepan laughed, "Come, I'll show you around the R&D center first." ”

The two of them walked side by side inside, and unlike Liu Weiping's imagination, the Pinault Bio R&D Center is not like a pharmaceutical company's laboratory full of bottles and cans, and there are only a few computer terminals in the entire building, according to Stepan, which are connected to the underground data center in the north of Bangalore, where all the input and output terminal equipment is located.

Liu Weiping saw that several researchers were using their hands to operate the interface projected by the computer through holographic projection. Stepan looked at Liu Weiping curiously, so he introduced him, "This is our daily research work, we mainly use super quantum computers to sequence human genes, and then modify the gene sequence in computer simulation, and evaluate, this is the process of our research on gene drugs, mainly done on computers." ”

Liu Weiping asked as he walked, "Is it reverse engineering?" ”

Stepan smiled awkwardly, "Everybody in Bangalore does that, and reverse engineering is legal here." Moreover, Pino Biotech is a newcomer in the field of gene medicine, and we can only follow the path of large companies. ”

Liu Weiping thinks about it and it makes sense, isn't this how he came to the first pot of gold at Shanghai Jiaotong University in the early 20th century, if it weren't for Zhao Yonggang's idea of buying Hong Kong's voice chip for re-marking, maybe there would be no later voice control system at all, and there was no Bitcoin, let alone Homo sapiens.

"The board sent me to solve the problem of germ cell atrophy." Liu Weiping talked about the topic, and Stepan took him to a holographic projection, in which the molecular structure of anti-nuclide appeared, "This is the green anti-nuclide structure of Pfizer, and its molecule can be absorbed by the human body to find the broken DNA sequence, which will connect the DNA fragments torn by the neutron stream, and this is how it works." ”

"Looks like you've discovered the key principle?" Liu Weiping stared at the molecular structure of the antinuclide with interest, which was much more complex and obviously more challenging than the binary coding he had studied all day, and Liu Weiping used a search engine to search the major literature databases while watching, and he became an expert in a short time.

Stepan investigated a set of data, "We also tried to synthesize such a molecular structure, but it doesn't seem to work on the atrophy of human germ cells, which is the data of animal experiments." "The data sheet shows a before and after comparison of taking the drug, and the reproduction rate of the white rabbit has not improved.

"The board asked us to improve germ cell survival, but it didn't give us the background to the study or what conditions the germ cells were damaged." Stepan complained to him as he flipped through the data report.

Of course, Liu Weiping didn't know that Zhao Yonggang strongly urged him to delete the secret report of Penguin Investigations, and when he traveled to Bangalore to restart, all the pitiful memories in his memory were gone.

After an hour, after visiting the entire research center of Pinault Biology, Liu Weiping stopped and pushed his glasses and said to Stepan, "I just came here, and I still need to be familiar with it for a while before I can come up with a solution." Although we are a dual-director system, we mainly listen to you. ”

Stepan waved his hand heartily, "No problem, I heard from the people at the San Francisco headquarters that you are an expert in encrypted communications, and I believe that the way you study genes now is just what you like." ”

Entering his office, Liu Weiping couldn't wait to connect with Lin Shuangmian, "Shuangmian, how is Siquan?" ”

The hologram is a video taken by Liu Siquan with a suspended moving camera, Wu Kefen riding on top of the Harley fat boy, Liu Siquan sitting in the back seat, the two of them swaggering through the city in San Francisco, the undulating roads of San Francisco made Wu Kefen addicted, she drove while looking back and talking and laughing with Liu Siquan.

"What's going on? There won't be any problems, right? Liu Weiping asked with a frown.

"What could be the problem? Wouldn't that be nice? Lin Shuangmian didn't stop Liu Siquan's video, she started the picture-in-picture call with Liu Weiping.

"This Wu Kefen is bisexual!" Liu Weiping finally couldn't help it, and he expressed his worries.

"Where do you think of it?" Lin Shuangmian was displeased.

Liu Weiping couldn't hold back the words in his heart any longer, leaving Lin Shuangmian so far away was much better than saying hello in person, "That night in Sausalito, I saw you kissing together with my own eyes!" ”

Lin Shuangmian laughed, "You're thinking too much, I brought back the alcohol from the bar to replenish her energy." I don't think there's anything wrong with her. I guess Siquan is willing to stay with her, maybe the two of them have the same voice, and Siquan can hear herself from her mouth. ”

"It's good to have a friend who helps Siquan shape the role of society, but unfortunately there are too few Homo sapiens, and humans are unreliable." Liu Weiping sighed.

An afternoon passed quickly, Liu Weiping didn't think about what gene medicine was at all, and discussed Liu Siquan with Lin Shuangmian all afternoon.

As the sun began to set in the west, Stepan knocked on the door and entered, "David, you don't have any family here anyway, why don't we have a drink on Gandhi Street in the evening?" ”

Liu Weiping made an analysis in an instant, fortunately, he went to the bar, supplementing alcohol is not a big problem for the body, if he goes to eat, he will have to wear a gang, and it seems that he can't get too close to this Stepan in the future.

Liu Weiping's comprehensive research and judgment is just a flash of light, "Okay, I just want to have a drink." ”

Since the temperature in the South Asian subcontinent has dropped, more than half of the population of Vijayanagar has been concentrated in Bangalore, but under the management of artificial intelligence, the traffic in Bangalore is in good order, but in a moment, the time-sharing electric car arrived at Gandhi Street, Gandhi Street is still as crowded as it was back then, and there is not even a rotating parking rack, Stepan has no choice but to set the time-sharing electric car to automatically search for parking spaces.

Gandhi Street hasn't changed for decades, and it hasn't been affected by modern technology at all, with rows of bars still old-fashioned signs and neon signs, and a 20-year-old LCD flat-screen TV hanging on the wall when you walk inside.

The two of them sat down at the bar, Stepan came up with a glass of vodka without ice, and Liu Weiping also ordered a glass with him, but with a little ice, he didn't want Stepan to see his immunity to spirits.

Stepan didn't seem to have come to relax at the bar on Gandhi Street, he just said, "David, how are you thinking about the germ cell thing?" ”

Liu Weiping was caught off guard, and his competitiveness as always in academics made him unwilling to be silent, but fortunately, his quantum computer reacted very quickly, and immediately opened his mouth, "Actually, we can change the way of thinking, there are two kinds of anti-nuclides of Pfizer, and one is a blue pill to prevent radiation from damaging somatic cells, the mechanism of somatic cells in living organisms is much simpler than germ cells, and somatic cells may be another research direction." ”

Liu Weiping didn't have confidence in his heart, he thought of where to say it, but these few words still frightened Stepan, Stepan raised his glass and saluted Liu Weiping, "I want to hear it in detail!" ”

Liu Weiping had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue, "If their blue pills can repair destroyed DNA fragments like green pills, then they can find a way to prolong the death rate of somatic cells." ”

Stepan's eyes lit up, and he took a sip of dry vodka and asked for another glass in response, "Extend the human metabolism?" That's life extension! and increasing fertility! ”

Liu Weiping didn't expect to be so convincing to Stepan, he had to make up blindly based on the literature on the Internet, "Many companies in Bangalore have successfully developed targeted drugs to deal with cancer cells, in fact, there are many references, the reason why cancer cells multiply indefinitely is because the human body's proto-oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes are abnormal, and the proto-oncogenes that control the speed of cell division are out of control, and cancer cells can proliferate indefinitely. Perhaps we can harness the proto-oncogene and let it control the rate at which somatic cells divide. ”

Liu Weiping was talking nonsense completely, and even he didn't understand it himself, but Stepan was fooled by him and didn't dare to discuss it anymore, "Come on!" David, let's drink! He diverted the topic and toasted to Liu Weiping vigorously.

Liu Weiping was afraid that he would persuade him to drink, and after a while, Stepan's tongue became bigger, "David, why do you Asians drink so well?" ”

Liu Weiping smiled, "Don't look at my Asian face, I've been working in San Francisco, and I'm also a regular at the bar, what about you?" Your alcohol consumption is not bad either. ”

Stepan toasted himself again, "Vodka, great!" They can't drink it locally, and today only you can enjoy me! Stepan was already almost drunk, he pulled Liu Weiping and didn't let go, like Xianglin's sister-in-law, the wine became stronger, Stepan began to say something wrong, fortunately, Liu Weiping had the logical operation of a quantum computer, and he made do with reorganizing Stepan's words.

It turned out that Stepan was born in the Komsomolsk Amur Komsomolsk in the Khabarovsk Territory in the Far East of Russia, after the rise of the school of thought, the Khabarovsk Krai split off to become the Republic of East Russia, after the start of the Third World War, the Amur Komsomolsk once jumped to the largest industrial city in the Republic of East Russia, Stepan worked as a programmer in the Komsomolsk aircraft production complex, with a steady stream of orders for Soviet-style series fighters, Stepan also lived a good life for a while.

But after the war, the number of orders for the Komsomolsk aircraft production complex plummeted, and the factory simply took a year's long vacation, and the young Stepan did not know the height of the sky, and went all the way south with the bonus issued during the war years, first to Sanya, Hainan, and then to Pattaya, southern Thailand, and then to Sri Lanka and Vijayana Gar, playing the entire tropical region.

When Stepan returned to Komsomolsk again, the aircraft production complex still did not resume work, and he had to switch to the Amur Diesel Engine Plant to engage in electronic control, Stepan did not expect that this was the beginning of Komsomolsk's doom.

After the League of Nations began to implement the Zeus program, the temperature on the earth slowly dropped, and the changes in the Arctic were particularly obvious, first the Arctic shipping lanes were re-closed, then the snow line moved south, the Amur River was frozen for longer and longer, Komsomolsk was getting colder and colder, covered with snow all year round, and many factories were not guaranteed to operate at all.

This is not over, after the passage of the disarmament bill, the military spending of the Republic of East Russia began to grow zero, which became the last straw that pressed the Komsomolsk, the military factories closed one after another, and the original Komsomolsk, which had 300,000 people, slowly turned into a ghost town.

Stepan lost his job, he thought of the Bangalore he had traveled to, and he decided to try his luck in Bangalore, when the R&D center of Pinault Biotech had just been established, and Pinopan Biotech, like the local pharmaceutical company, had a soft spot for IT talents who were proficient in mathematics and physics, and Stepan, who was well-educated in the Russian military-industrial complex, was selected by Pinoche to become a programmer.

Facts have proved that he took the right step in this step, and he was born as a programmer in the genetic era, quickly surpassing the traditional R&D personnel of Pinault Biotech, standing out all the way, and climbed to the position of director of the R&D center in a few years.

Stepan was still ordering vodka in a cup, and with each drink, he had to tell an endless story about his experience, "Great, David, I know them, they, they look down on me, the director of the R&D center where the programmer was born, you, you don't look down on me, do you?" ”

Stepan slurred his speech, his head was lying on the bar and he had to chat with Liu Weiping non-stop, Liu Weiping began to sympathize with this Eastern Russian, it turned out to be an arrogant guy, similar to his own time in Jufang Technology, and he must not allow others to doubt his ability.

Liu Weiping saw that Stepan was drunk like this, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to settle the bill and use Samsung glasses to summon the time-sharing train, and put the one-meter-nine Stepan into the car.
