"That's the good news you said?" Zhou Chen looked at Cao Jiangfeng with a smile. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

This Zhou Bingxin is none other than the daughter born to Zhou Chen and Yang Xi!

Unable to withstand the eager attention of the people around them and the diligent teachings of their families, Zhou Chen and Yang Xi's plan to create a man finally came to fruition seven years ago, and after ten months of pregnancy, Yang Xi gave birth to a daughter for Zhou Chen.

Zhou Bingxin's birth can be described as a starry moon, which caused a relatively big sensation in a large range. Although he is not a boy, Zhou Chen, who does not care about giving birth to boys and girls, gave this baby daughter infinite love.

As for why they married for so long and gave birth to a daughter, it's not that the two of them don't want to have children in advance, but I don't know why their fertility efficiency is so low that others feel a little worried.

After thinking about it, Zhou Chen could only blame the reason on the nutrient solution and chain database of the Aoduo civilization, because Ye Yanzhe and others, who had also been injected with genetic medicines, also took a lot of effort to successfully give birth to a child, speaking of which, their child was only a few years older than Zhou Chen's daughter Zhou Bingxin.

It's not that there is any problem with their genetic medicine, but as a relatively advanced life, the life cycle of the Odo civilization is much longer than that of humans on Earth, so their reproductive cycle has also been lengthened a lot.

Just imagine, if one day the life expectancy of human beings is extended to more than 1,000 years, will the reproductive age of human beings still be maintained in the twenties? Nature is balanced, and when the life expectancy of species increases, their fertility efficiency decreases.

Although humans still complete sexual maturity in their teens and become individuals with the ability to live independently, the laws of species allow them to maintain a longer period of puberty, and naturally their ability to reproduce will be self-enclosed to a certain extent.

The difference between human beings and animals lies in the fact that human beings have added a layer of sociological value on the basis of reproduction and established their own ethical concepts.

However, no matter how human beings evolve, they are an important part of the composition of life in nature, and they cannot escape the ultimate proposition of reproduction.

From the perspective of nature, life is the product of the collision of inorganic and organic matter without any meaning, while from the perspective of life, reproduction is to maintain the continuation of the species to which it belongs, to pass on its own genetic material to future generations, and to promote the evolution of species and better adapt to the environment.

We can find that the shorter the life cycle of the organism, the shorter the reproduction cycle, and vice versa, and reproduction seems to be the last insurance in the continuation of life. For the organisms themselves, reproduction is a great burden and consumption, for the sake of protection, should this kind of thing be avoided?

However, the need for the continuation of species cannot avoid it, so if their life cycle is long enough, their need for reproduction will naturally decrease.

Think more radically, if a living being reaches immortality, perhaps they don't need to reproduce.

It is precisely because this daughter is not easy to come by, Zhou Chen and Yang Xi's love for her is also conceivable, last year's talent selection, the demon children in the fleet were frequent, six-year-old Zhou Bingxin missed the list with a slight gap, this year finally made the list, and ranked forty-sixth, if it is an ordinary family, it will definitely be happy, because this is equivalent to a road to heaven!

But Cao Jiangfeng couldn't grasp Zhou Chen's mentality, so he came over to spy on it.

"What, isn't it a good thing that my daughter has a good future?" Listening to Zhou Chen's question, Cao Jiangfeng asked with a smile.

Zhou Chen nodded: "It's indeed a good thing!" Looking at Cao Jiangfeng, he said, "So you came here this time specifically to ask for my daughter?" ”

Cao Jiangfeng smiled shyly: "There is a reason for this, after all, after being selected into the talent list, many knowledge points need to be instilled, which will have an impact on the child's childhood." ”

Zhou Chen understood and said: "Then follow the normal procedure, if Xiao Xin can become successful, we will also be happy for her." Listen to you, what else is there? ”

"Yes, the other thing is about genetic pills." Cao Jiangfeng changed his previous casualness, and said with a serious face: "The latest generation of gene drugs has passed multiple clinical tests, and the Academy of Life Sciences has given certification that it can be introduced to the market. ”

"So fast?"

Zhou Chen said in surprise.

This latest generation of genetic agents actually includes a nutrient solution and a chain database, both of which are handled by a scientific research team led by Cai Xiaoxi and Yang Xi, respectively. This is a super gene fluid that can push the human lifespan to more than 500 years in one step, and clinical trials began 20 years ago.

"It's not too fast!" Cao Jiangfeng shook his head and said, "The genetic drug has gone through layers of checks during the development process, and there will be no problems in theory, and after 20 years of observation, it can be ensured that there will be no side effects after being introduced to the market." ”

"Thanks to the captain's niece, Researcher Zhao Keke, without her participation, the verification work would not have been completed so quickly!"

"Don't put a top hat on her, of course I know what the situation is with that girl." Zhou Chen said with a smile.

Zhao Keke entered the Institute of Life Sciences with excellent grades a few years ago, and once he graduated, he followed Cai Xiaoxi's side. Zhao Keke, who is a small ghost from a small person, is also one of the "achievements" of the talent training plan, and now it seems that she is riding a horse on the road of science and belongs to a relatively bright young scientist.

Zhou Chen was silent, and said after a while: "At present, the total population of the Earth Fleet is nearly seven billion, if a new generation of genetic drugs is introduced to the market, I am afraid we must consider the delay of the fertility period caused by this......

With the experience of promoting gene drugs several times before, there is almost no problem with the drug itself, and the real crux is that the gene drugs launched before are small-scale life extensions for more than ten years or decades, and will not have much impact on human fertility. And the genetic medicine to be launched this time is full of medicinal power, which can prolong the life span of hundreds of years.

Although this is a very gratifying thing for the people, as the leader of the fleet, you have to consider the socialization problems caused by it.

Extending such a long life in one go will definitely have an impact on fertility status.

Population is the foundation of civilization, but at the same time, life expectancy is also an indispensable condition for giving full play to the advantages of population and cultivating all-round talents.

Today, the Earth fleet has a population of seven billion, and it is not too much to say and too little. If you want to develop better, this population is obviously not enough.

"Do you want to do it in stages...... Let young men and women of appropriate age give birth as soon as possible, and then inject genetic drugs? Cao Jiangfeng thought for a while.

He himself had been injected with the Otto civilization potion, so he was well aware of the side effects of this large-scale life-prolonging potion.

Zhou Chen shook his head helplessly and said: "It doesn't work, the fleet has been implementing the policy of encouraging childbirth, and the young people of the right age have already given birth, and there will be no more fertility wave because of the promotion of medicine...... Hey, wait, maybe it can really spark a wave of fertility! ”

Zhou Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly: "As long as we talk about the powerful relationship, there must be quite a lot of people who will reconsider the issue of fertility!" In this way, a new wave of fertility will come, and even if fertility declines after the injection, the population of the fleet will continue to rise steadily on a longer time scale! ”

The key is to promote the promotion of drugs that extend the life span of 500 years, and at most to postpone the optimal reproductive age by a few decades.

"It's a good deal to trade quantity for time!" Cao Jiangfeng took out a pen and paper and quickly calculated, and came to a conclusion.

Zhou Chen was noncommittal, and said with a light smile: "How do I feel that in your eyes, there are only data, and there are more businessmen's copper smell!" ”

Cao Jiangfeng was stunned for a moment, shrugged and smiled.
