Chapter 317: Special Questions
Joseph said: "This is not a question of high cost, but a question of whether our concept of fraternity can be developed for a long time and carried forward to the foundation of the entire universe, which is much more important than the development of advanced weapons and technology, so I think that the means of production in this area must not be saved." Alright, when we get back to Base One, Brother Mack, while you're working on rapid cloning technology, you're also going to have to arrange for some people to develop materials for this. ”
"Okay, that's a relatively simple question, and I'll have a few researchers who can get results quickly," Mike said. ”
Joseph said: "You can't think that it is simple and ignore it, this matter is related to the stable development of our society, we must develop it as soon as possible and put it into mass production, and then distribute it to everyone, and set some rules, such as when you must wear this thing, please." ”
Mike said: "Okay, Brother Joseph, then I will personally grasp the cloning technology with one hand, and the research and development of the protective shield against modifying the soul with the other, and the two will be carried out at the same time." ”
Misu got up to fill Joseph and Mike's water cups, and said, "I, I have a personal question, I would like to consult the two leaders, I don't know if it is appropriate to raise it on this occasion and at this time. ”
Joseph said, "Well, it's human nature that we don't just get together and just talk about work, and talk about other personal things." ”
Mike said: "Yes, Mr. Misu, we are an equal relationship, if you have anything to say, just say it, you're welcome." ”
Mi Su seemed to have made up his mind, took a deep breath, and said: "It's about the Sims game, I, my orientation, is a little different from everyone, so can my lover and I also have a child, can we also enjoy the joy of a complete family, and at the same time can contribute to the rapid increase in population." ”
"When I was talking to Big Brother Joseph, Big Brother Steve, and Brother Sahu, the rules we discussed were that in the Sims game, both men and women were asked to donate their DNA to create their own artificial eggs and sperm in the cloning chamber, and then conceive into embryos," Mike said. We also intend to stipulate that the chromosomes from the male DNA are random, possibly Y or X, so that the sex of the embryo is random, no human intervention is allowed, and within two months it grows into a sixteen-year-old male or female adult. Mr. Misu, although I do not discriminate against your group, I don't have much in-depth understanding. In terms of producing germ cells, males can produce two types of sperm containing X chromosomes and Y chromosomes, which have an equal number of sperm, and females can only produce eggs containing X chromosomes. This mechanism of reproduction, which has been established in the process of biological evolution, cannot be easily and forcibly modified. So, if it's two males, or two females, it's technically possible to clone their common offspring. For example, if one of the two males is sure to play the role of the father, two chromosomes, X and Y, are isolated from his DNA and used as artificial sperm materials. The other plays the role of a mother, so only the X chromosome is isolated from her DNA and used as the material for the artificial egg. But again, I would like to stress that this is technically feasible and that it is debatable whether it is ethical to do so. ”
Joseph said, "Well, Brother Mack's analysis is already in place. And I believe that whether it is ethical or not is not determined by a small number of people, but should be judged by the public, just like I mentioned before, the issue of intergenerational reverse upbringing after the technology of human rebirth. As long as the public thinks that this is feasible and does not violate morality, even if it violates some laws of nature, it is still a humane practice or technology. ”
Mi Su said with a bitter face: "My lover works in the Third Machine Factory, after we heard about the Sims game, we were first happy, and then imitated, I don't know if we are qualified to participate in the great cause of human reproduction, and now it seems that it is still necessary for everyone's vote." ”
Joseph said, "There are a lot of people who have the same orientation as Mr. Misu, and I think it would be nice to have these people participate in the Sims game and breed more humans with normal upbringing. ”
Mike said: "I heard that people like Mr. Misu are generally more intelligent or more accomplished in a certain field, and if their descendants can also participate in our Great Love Sunshine Project, I think I will support it." ”
Mi Su, who was originally frowning, turned to a smile and said: "Since the two big leaders support, then our hope is even greater, thank you for the love and support of the two leaders to our group!" ”
Joseph waved his hand and said, "Haha, we are only expressing our opinions as individuals, not as our managers." When voting, Brother Mack and I were not allowed to make any tendentious remarks to the public, so as not to mislead the public. I hope that Mr. Yoneu can understand our situation. ”
Misu said: "Fully understood, fully understood. ”
Joseph raised his hand and looked at the bracelet and said, "Alright, it's almost time, Brother Mack, let's continue to set off back to Base One." Mr. Misu, the security of this place, and even the safety of the entire No. 1 base, will continue to be handed over to you. As for the question you just raised, I think it's timely and constructive. When Brother Mack's research and argumentation work is completed, and the cloning warehouse is mass-produced, I will propose to you and vote on this issue. ”
Mi Su stood up, bowed to Joseph, and said, "Okay, thank you again for your care, I'll send you two on the plane." ”
In the cave 300 meters deep underground in Base 1, David, who was originally sitting by the charcoal fire with a small wooden bowl and drinking broth, listened to Zhuoya's retelling, and said excitedly: "Great, they actually researched such results, it is really a great breakthrough!" ”
Muma said, "Zoya, you just said that it was Lulu's research results?" ”
"Yes, what they said was that this so-called rapid cloning technology is to make some final arguments based on Lulu's research. ”
David put the bowl on the ground, stood up and paced, "They didn't mention whether rapid cloning technology can extend human lifespan?" ”
