Chapter 473: Anthropomorphic Body

Atron Oasis City.

The pillar industry here is biopharmaceuticals.

Five subsidiaries, including Aoba Medical, Luzon Biologics, and Suyinshi Pharmaceutical, have set up laboratories or production bases here.

Of course, there are many hidden projects among them.

In any case, Homo sapiens has invested a lot around the world, especially in regions where it has established wholly owned branches, and the related investments are countless.

Even if the outside world sees some of the investment projects announced on the official website, it is actually difficult to analyze any useful information.

Homo sapiens' intelligence secrecy system is so powerful that it takes a lot of hard work and a little bit of luck for the outside world to find out even a little bit of useful information.

For example, in the biopharmaceutical industry of Atron Oasis City, Homo sapiens has two other biopharmaceutical bases in Africa, one in the desert oasis of Numidia and the other on the western coast of Mada Island.

And many forces have discovered a rule, that is, the industries announced by Homo sapiens companies on the surface generally do not involve secrets, but those industries hidden underground are the real secrets.

This time, Homo sapiens went the opposite way and directly built a biopharmaceutical base in Atlas Oasis City, which made the outside world pay little attention to it.

Aitemon Medical's Atron branch.

As a subsidiary of Li Qingye named after himself, this subsidiary is also where he often works.

Atron Primate Pathology Laboratory (Internal Number 8807).

Li Qingye was doing some scientific research here at this time.

Of course, the Aerospace Helicarrier that escorted him before had already flown away at this time, and there was also Li Qingye's exclusive stand-in who would represent him and go back to the Southeast Asia headquarters to make a public appearance a few times.

And he himself stayed in Atron Oasis City.

The scientific director of Laboratory 8807 is a black scientist who has been studying infectious diseases in Africa for a long time.

"Dr. Gudan, tell me about the lab!"

"No problem, Mr. Chairman!" Gu Dan looked at the man in front of him with extremely reverent eyes, and then calmed down his excitement a little:

"It took us about half a year to conduct a relatively comprehensive physical examination of the entire Meroe and Chad regions, with a total of 80 million physical examinations."

The more he said, the calmer Gu Dan became: "Through the whole genome test and the exclusive genetic analysis supercomputer analysis, we got some very useful data. ”

"It's natural antibodies to AIDS, dengue, malaria, Ebola, right?" Li Qingye guessed something in an instant.

Gu Dan nodded: "Yes, Mr. Chairman, after decades of natural screening, the human population in Africa now generally has some natural antibodies to some local epidemic diseases. ”

Of course, Gu Dan still has some words that have not been said, and Li Qingye is also clear, as a top biologist, he is very clear about the nature of the so-called natural evolution.

It is nothing more than natural selection, the survival of the fittest, and the elimination of the unsuitable.

Those natives who did not produce antibodies have long been devastated by the continuous disease, and have become typical examples of evolutionary failure.

The outside world only knows that Africans have strong immunity to malaria, but few people know that the price of this immunity is piled up by hundreds of millions of bones.

Li Qingye put down the tablet in his hand and sighed softly: "The road of evolution, nine deaths and one life, if you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent." ”

"......" Gu Dan also fell silent.

Behind these data, there is indeed a bloody reference reality.

"Let's go to the anthropomorphic test area!"

Gu Dan, who came to his senses, hurriedly stood up: "Mr. Chairman, please come with me." ”

Deep underground in the laboratory.

Li Qingye and Gu Dan, who came down from the elevator, were already wearing a full range of biological protective clothing at this time.

Although it is an underground base, it is not similar to the eerie horror in the movie set, but is very bright.

After all, this is reality, scientists are also people, and who would like to work in an eerie environment except psychopaths?

Open a room.

Rows of culture cabins are displayed inside, and through the transparent observation window, you can see the situation inside the culture cabin.

Inside the culture chamber, there is a piece of meat growing.

This is the "anthropomorphic", a special organism that has been genetically recombined, cloned and biomodified.

To be precise, this thing is similar to a human cloned, because it is a cloned body that uses human genes as the mother's parent.

But there are several differences between anthropomorphic and clones, anthropomorphic humans do not have brains, but use artificial brains composed of biochips to replace human brains.

Another point is that the anthropomorphic body is not humanoid, but a cuboid "piece of flesh", which is mainly to avoid the uncanny valley effect and reduce the moral burden.

In other ways, the anthropomorphic body has organs, bones, muscles, blood vessels and genes that are highly similar to humans, while the artificial brain composed of biochips can sense various changes in the body.

Therefore, this anthropomorphism is often used as a substitute for human experimentation.

After all, there is a limit to the number of scum who can be used as experimental subjects, and human experiments are definitely indispensable if drugs and medical technologies are to be rapidly developed and the harm of substances to the human body is to be evaluated.

Although Homo sapiens does not have much psychological burden on outsiders, it still has a very bottom line for its own employees.

Tianzhu, which used to be the world's largest human experimentation area, has now become a thing of the past.

Naturally, it is impossible for Homo sapiens to test drugs on its own employees.

Therefore, finding a suitable replacement for the human body has become an urgent task at present.

After all, European and American pharmaceutical companies really have no bottom line, and after losing Tianzhu and Southeast Asia, which are convenient regions for drug testing, they are now turning to Azteca, Central America, and Western Africa.

In order to ensure the absolute leadership of biotechnology, Homo sapiens must also conduct human experiments.

After more than a year of secret research and development, the anthropomorphic project was finally successful, and at present, Aoba Medical can produce 500,000~1 million anthropomorphic human bodies per year.

Homo sapiens' biological laboratories use anthropomorphic humans instead of natural persons for all content related to the human body.

The effect of anthropomorphic and human experiments is almost the same, and because it can be customized, as well as playing extreme operations, it can obtain a lot of experimental data that was difficult to test before.

After all, normal human experiments require volunteers to actively cooperate, but many volunteers only verbally agree to cooperate, which does not mean that they will cooperate completely.

For example, if there is a danger to life, there is a high probability that volunteers will not cooperate.

The anthropomorphic body has no such concerns.

Therefore, the invention of anthropomorphic human beings is a huge revolution for human biology.

In the past, the pharmaceutical industry also engaged in complex in vitro experiments and animal experiments, and finally after various audits, it could only engage in human experiments.

Now Homo sapiens directly uses anthropomorphic human experiments to simulate the effects of drugs and medical technology on the human body, saving a lot of time and avoiding moral hazard.

Those poor chimpanzees in Africa finally don't have to sacrifice their lives for human medicine.

And Li Qingye's recent projects have also reached the stage of anthropomorphic experiments.
