Chapter 34 I must vote for your project(1/2)
"Human Genome Project!"
Several large characters with animated effects hit the center of the TV wall screen, and the golden characters seemed to break through the screen.
The DNA double helix structure model was spinning around, and a large series of incomprehensible but tall letters, symbols and formulas covered the screen.
But these words also hit the hearts of the rich, and they all cheered up.
Let alone whether it is believable or not, the charisma of this gimmick is immediately full, and the atmosphere is instantly in place.
"Some people live to be a hundred years old without any disease, and some people get cancer at a young age."
"Why are some people prone to diabetes and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases? This is all due to differences in human genes."
Qin Yi looked around the audience with a serious expression, "Everyone also hopes to have a healthy body."
"Why can others be healthy and enjoy the happiness brought by money, fine wine, food, and beautiful women without restraint, but I have to linger on the bed in pain and endure physical pain."
"Why is modern medicine so advanced but unable to solve its own diseases?"
"Is it a money issue?"
The rich people were all moved. This sentence was like a heavy punch without any fancy, directly hitting their psychology.
Yes, are we short of money?
What we lack is life and health!
What's the use of being as rich as a country, worth billions of dollars, lying in bed waiting to die without even being able to find a suitable organ.
There is no point in being in a high position, even the pain of illness cannot be removed.
"No!" Qin Yikang said passionately, "This is a genetic problem!"
"The human body limits the noble soul of human beings. It prevents elites from devoting all their energy to their careers and has to fight against illness."
"In order to solve the troubles caused by diseases to mankind, mankind has decided to unite and fundamentally solve this problem." Qin Yi slammed the table hard, "This is the great and magnificent Human Genome Project!"
"The Human Genome Project was proposed by American scientists in 1985 and officially launched in 1990. It is now participated by the United States, Japan, Russia, Russia, Germany, and Japan. Today, China will also announce its participation in the project."
"It aims to determine the nucleotide sequence of the 3 billion base pairs that make up the 25,000 genes contained in the human chromosome (referring to the haploid), thereby drawing a map of the human genome and identifying the genes and their sequences contained therein.
To achieve the ultimate goal of deciphering human genetic information."
"For decoding life, understanding the origin of life, the laws of growth and development of living organisms, understanding the mechanisms of disease and life phenomena such as longevity and aging, it provides scientific basis for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases."
"This is the first unprecedented joint grand plan in human history, with a total investment of US$3 billion to complete the human genetic map within ten years."
"The Human Genome Project, the Manhattan Atomic Bomb Project and the Apollo Moon Landing Project are known as the three major scientific projects. They are another great project in the history of human science."
"The plan aims to complete the human genetic map by the beginning of the 21st century and begin to decipher DNA information."
The rich people began to get excited when they heard this. Listen, listen.
What are these, the three major projects of mankind!
The alliance of world powers, super grand ideas, a team of the world's top scientists, countless financial investments, and conquering the most cutting-edge technology are all enough to stimulate people's nerves and make people excited.
What's more, with so many elements put together, if it's really what the person in front of me said, the wealthy people have no doubts about the success of this plan.
If we can really decipher human genes, will we be able to uncover the mysteries of life and conquer diseases?
Qin Yi immediately answered this question for the rich people. Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, he directly turned to the topic.
"The gene editing project is the second phase of the Human Genome Project. After deciphering the DNA information, genetic modification research will begin. The disease-causing genes will be cut or connected to specific gene fragments to treat diseases at the genetic level."
"You can imagine that in the not-too-distant future, after gene editing, humans no longer have to worry about contracting diseases, tumors, diabetes, uremia, heart disease, and congenital diseases, and can self-heal through gene-targeted therapy.
"
"Compared with other treatment methods, the advantage of gene editing technology is that it can solve the root cause of the disease. It is suitable for the treatment of genetic diseases, the screening and detection of disease-related genes, tumor treatment, animal and plant transformation, and the prevention of pathogenic microorganisms.
Has huge potential.”
Qin Yi's speech was so inspiring that the wealthy people below were stunned.
Human genome map, gene editing, cracking the code of life, gene targeted therapy...
Stop, stop, this information density is too high, it sounds too exciting.
A rich man raised his hand and said, "Please pause."
Qin Yi smiled and nodded, "Does this gentleman have any questions?"
The rich man who raised his hand coughed and said, "I request that the place be cleared again so that irrelevant people can leave."
The assistants around the rich men were immediately stunned. They were all the rich men's absolute confidants.
They usually do all kinds of dirty work for the rich, including pimping, murdering and setting fires without avoiding them.
Why do you want to drive people away now when it comes to the critical moment?
It's so unfair.
"Master, we can't leave this unattended. Your body..." the assistant asked with a trembling voice, filled with worry and concern.
"No need." The rich man replied decisively, "It will be fine for a while, you all can go out."
Qin Yi nodded, "Our professional medical team is right next door and can provide medical services to everyone at any time, so please don't worry about this."
The assistants left the hall with resentful faces and closed the door.
There were only about twenty wealthy people left in the hall. Although their faces were pale and sick, their eyes had a blazing light.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Excuse me, this gene... editor, can I modify it at will?" A rich man asked a question that everyone is concerned about.
"Of course! In addition to treatment, the gene editing project can also be edited and fine-tuned according to your own needs." Qin Yi smiled slightly, "When the project matures, we will open up the gene customization function."
Qin Yi glanced at the people present and said, "Imagine that when you are giving birth to the next generation, you can edit it during the embryonic stage."
"He can have perfect looks, height, body shape, smart brain, and strong body."
The rich people were in an uproar and whispered among themselves.
The sound in the hall gradually became noisy. The wealthy people were discussing very intensely with enthusiasm and their interest was very high.
The rich man surnamed Zheng was the first to speak, "The prospects of your project look very good. You only introduced the situation of the project. We don't know about your own situation yet."
"For example, whether your scientific research team and technical level can achieve the expected goals."
Qin Yi smiled slightly and said, "This is a good question."
"The Human Genome Project is progressing very smoothly. You can pay more attention to this news and find channels to learn more."
"It's a problem with our own team." Qin Yi showed a mysterious expression, "Please keep the words and content of what I say now confidential. I will not admit what I said outside this door."
"Our scientific research team itself is a team that participated in the Human Genome Project, and they have access to all the information on the human genetic map."
"As long as we have this information and follow the diagram, editing genes will be a very easy task, and an ordinary biology graduate student can complete it."
The wealthy people took a deep breath. It seemed that Mr. Zhao in front of them had a very extraordinary background.
Could it be that there is some national force behind him? It is not impossible.
Is it the country of Ying?
America?
Or Japan?
His accent sounds like a Hong Kong Islander, more likely a Korean.
The country has been having a hard time recently. I heard that even Hong Kong Island's foreign exchange reserves are not being spared. It's like openly robbing them.
But in the end, the mutton was not eaten and it caused a lot of trouble, even the aircraft carrier was lost.
It's like a knife in the ass, opening a big eye, and becoming a laughing stock in front of the world.
With such important tools of the country being used to generate income, it seems that the country is very short of money.
No, this kind of thing was originally prepared for the rich.
If this is the case, it seems to make sense.
The rich people quickly completed their self-guided strategy and had a general understanding of Qin Yi's identity.
Soon, the first rich man to express his opinion appeared,
"How much money will be invested in this project, when will it be completed, and what is the total budget of the project."
Speaking of this, Qin Yi became more and more energetic. Generally speaking, when it comes to this issue, as long as you can grasp it, the investment is basically certain.
"The first phase has a budget of one billion U.S. dollars." Qin Yi raised three fingers. "The project is divided into three phases. In the second phase, more than a hundred wealthy people will participate in the investment, and the budget will reach more than 10 billion U.S. dollars. In the third phase, the budget will reach more than 10 billion U.S. dollars.
We are still calculating the specific valuation at this stage.”
"The overall plan of the project will take 20 years. The first ten years will be to complete the genetic map, and the second ten years will be the experiments of the gene editing project."
There were twenty people present, and the one billion dollars divided was only fifty million per person.
Little money!
but……
The rich people suddenly frowned and said, "This time is too long."
To be continued...
